now that i'm back... the fun begins (evil JG Instructor laugh)

well... now that i'm back i have to go to Junior Gaurds every single weekday from now til august. doest that sound fun?
for anyone who said "yes", JGs is basically beach boot camp. I thought it was gonna be really fun and all that crap when i was 9 (my first year) but after that it got really boring and stupid... this year i have a pretty good group. the 2 instructors are cool, they really like surfing, so we do a lot of it, but they also really like long distance running, so we do a lot of it.
today it was really cold and cloudy, it actually rained some, still we did a 6-tower run, an A level Swim, beach sprints, and an hour of surfing. now i'm "Hanging out" with the MonsterSisters who i "love so much".

i'm back, yay!

well, i'm finally home
did you miss me? (cricket, cricket) anyone? (cricket, wind blows) NO ONE MISSED ME? ( pin drops, echoes)

deep calming breaths

yawn...
adios mi amigos!


-- sara--
how many seconds now?

i have not yet begun to procrastinate!

its almost 11am... lets look at my productive day so far to see if i can cross anything off my ToDo List...
i woke up...
stared at the wall for a bit...
blinked...
fell asleep again...
woke up again... brushed my teeth...
thought about packing...
ate breakfast (you should definetly try Cheerios with chocolate sauce on them... delicious!)...
made funny faces in the mirror...
photocopied something for my dad...
checked my email... updated blog... **procrastination**
-------------------------
well, it looks like i can cross off "sleep", but not much else... and
"I have not yet begun to Procrastinate!"

do you know what day it is today?

(to the tune of TGIF)
"S.H.I.T-- Sorry, Honey, It's Thursday!"

To-Do List

To Do (before 2am Friday morning, when I have to leave for the airport) List:
--pack (everything i could possibly need for a week in NY in June) (that's code for: everything i could possibly
need for a month in Death Valley or Antartica) (dont you hate it when the wheater can't make up its mind...
i never know what to pack...)
--Buy Shampoo
--Sleep (preferably at night...)
--PACK ( i mean it this time!)
--check mail box
--babysit... AHHHHHHHHHH!
--double check packing (in case i thought i was jokeing)
--leave for airport

a fun-filled trip (**smiles warmly, the sides of mouth drip with sarcasm**)

in a little less than 28 hours, i will be trapped on a plane with my grumbling little monsters (ie. sisters) for 7 FULL HOURS!
not only that, but as "the oldest" i am "expected" to "be in charge" and look after my "parents offspring, younger than myself"... this translates into many different languages.
In
parent-ishal: it means "Make sure Laura and Kim, make it past airport secrurity without whining that the bag they
are carrying wheighs more than "a bomb", don't stab a fellow passenger with a "spork", or make a detour to
the baggage carousel where they will mindlessly ride 'round and 'round for HOURS before someone shoots
them."
montsterSisters: it means "Don't boss me around, Poo-Poo Brain, or I"LL tell MOM!!"

To me it means: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Attack of the Whiney 4-year olds!!!!

i like to make pro/con lists:
CON -- babysitting for 5 hours IN A ROW for 2 DAYS
CON -- babysitting MEGAN for 5 hours IN A ROW for 2 DAYS
CON -- babysitting MEGAN and MEGAN"S FRIEND for 5 hours IN A ROW
PRO -- $7 and hour
PRO -- Digital Cable after they go to bed.

hmmm... lets talk about: PARENTS

And that's what parents were created for."

parting is such sweet sorrow...

hmm...
i have some terribly sad news for all my adoring fans (who, in the entire 15 mins this blog has existed, have not commented on ANYTHING... don't worry, i forgive you.). On thursday (yes, in only 2 short days) i will be leaving you to go to NY to visit my family (yes, i do love them more than you). i know, this is very sad for you. please dont cry. i will come back,

maybe.
if your lucky.

much luv,

SuMMerTiMMe

Well, it is FINALLY summer!
for once, i actually have a busy summer, which is a lot better than a lazy summer because i don't have my dad (who works at home) telling me all day that i can’t watch anymore TV, or be on the computer, and that I can’ t go to a movie with my friends because I have to get some excersize, or baby-sit my little sisters, or organize my socks alphabetically by color.

my goals for the summer:
--not to spend all day in front of the TV, unless its really important, like a Will&Grace marathon. of Fraiser.
--spend as much time out of the house as physically possible
--try to remember what day it is, because, lets face it, not every day is Thursday.
