Balloons remind me of party events. :D

Homecoming!

Homecoming is coming! And I’m very excited! Finally, something fun is coming up at school. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to go last year.  I almost decided to go, but in the end, I didn’t. Well first off, I was going to go, I had everything planned out and I didn’t get a new dress, but I still had one. But then, somehow I just lost interest, and my best friends had decided not to go.  So I thought, what’s the point of me going then?
          This year, I want to go! I went to the March spring dance here last year, and hate to say it but it was boring. Nobody really came, but the only fun I had was that I was with my best friends.  This year, at homecoming, I will be with my best friends and my date and I hear it’s like one of the best dances of the year here. I hope it’s the car dealer place too, because having our dance in the gym sucks.  I bet it gets crowded and stinks. Not what I would like to see in a dance.
          I have no idea whatsoever what color to wear yet. And homecoming is only a few weeks away! Not good! So this week I’m going to be going shopping probably with my best friends to find a new dress. My date and I have to match too, since that’s what he told me. He said couples     have to match, and to me personally that sounds pretty nice but I don’t really care. But this week, I think I should find my dress soon, before I get like an ugly one or something. But I really doubt that would happen. There are lots of pretty dresses, and I just to find the right one for the night.

I've walked on that street. :)

The Big Apple!

            This week my grandma from New York is going to fly back.  That makes me incredibly sad.  I’m so used to having her around, that when she leaves it’s going to feel all different.  Well, before, it was what it use to be. But ever since she’s come, everything has changed. Like literally. The food, we eat more Asian dishes than ever. The house, it’s very super neat since she usually stays home. We shop more, because she loves to shop and wants to buy souvenirs before she leaves back.
            New York is an awesome place though, I must admit. I’ve lived there for just a while, and it was fun while it lasted. I couldn’t see myself living there for along time though; it’s more of a place where I can visit. But I’d want to come back home. It’s a nice place though, you could never be bored. There’s always something to do, and I absolutely love riding out on the subways.
            Next summer, which is next year, my mom was talking to my grandma about visiting it. And that makes me super excited because I haven’t visited there in such a long time! I love that place; shopping is the number one thing I do while I’m there. But I’m going to be a bit sad this time leaving here, because of my boyfriend. I don’t want to leave his side in the summer. But this summer he went to Japan and for about 2 months, so me going to New York for say, a month shouldn’t be as painful. But still…overall I do think that if I had the choice I would go, and I think he’d want me to go as well.

I really wanna learn this move.  But my version looks a bit still like a handstand.

TGIF. :D

                 Yay, so it’s finally Friday this week. And nothing special has happened this week so far. But today is picture day. Usually I would be the one to dress up but today I’m just like ahh, don’t want to. So I’ve gotten lazier this year.
                Let’s see, this week I haven’t really practicing my dancing as much as I would have liked to. Yeah, I seem to talk about that a lot but that’s what’s always across my mind! But anyways, this week I tried out “floats” which is like, holding yourself up and moving yourself. I’m not sure, but I think it’s a “power move”. But yeah, I tried out the move: “roaches”. A lot of people tend to get that confused with “turtles” and it’s a bit similar but except “roaches” are when you just move backwards. But “turtles” are when you move in a circular motion. And I’m not really a “floats” person, because I like to do freezes and such, but I tried it out. Only because this kid called me out in gym after lunch telling me to break dance.
                 So I was like alright, since I needed to work on stuff and everything else. And so I did that, and I got like six or seven of them! I know that doesn’t sound a lot, but that’s actually a lot if you’re a dancer and that’s your first time trying it out. So I was proud actually! And I don’t really know how it happened, but I did it and so now I’m going to start working a bit more with these. And of course my other moves, but more focused on this for now. I’ll keep up my progress and record what I’ve done on here.

Doll face as she was doing her make up and everything.

The Creepy Video...

Earlier this week in class, we had to watch this somewhat creepy video called "Doll Face". What I got out of it was this scary feeling of "what just happened"? It was so weird! Okay, so during English class Tuesday, or maybe it was Monday, I’m not entirely sure but we watched this video and it was weird. So this is what happened. There's this strange looking somewhat alien-ish looking robot with that that alien face. Her eyes are black and she doesn't have a body as a human, but she has this electronical body that comes out of I would guess a jack box? Well she comes out and she's scary looking, like she has no life at all. There's this TV in this white room and she leans into it to watch it. I suppose she got hooked into it and she just wanted to watch this one certain part with this girl's face on it. And I think she got obsessed or something, because she kept wanting to watch it and tried to copy her.
She keeps copying her, and little by little she starts to look like her. All she has is make up on at first, but then the TV is kind of broken, so it doesn't work? And then it comes to life, like you could see more. And she sees eyes, and color onto the face. So she applies more make up, like blush and bronzer and then she sticks an eye into her. Now she has one eye. Over time she starts to look exactly like her. But then she cannot go any further because her mechanical body has a limit and won't let her follow the TV. And then she starts to break down, and her face looks very sad.
From what I got from that video is that she's like most people. It's like people have a role model or at least something, somebody that they would like to admire and follow their actions. And with that creepy robot girl, hers was a human. I think she was just trying to be like somebody else that she looked up too. But I also think she got somewhat obsessed and like, she just couldn't take it any further. She was so into creating herself into something she's not, and I think it's a message to all readers that us as the people shouldn't be obsessed with somebody else, just be yourself.
