Hai Bae

I've probably already used that post title, but oh well.

So, what's up? I started school, (seen in my last post) but um not much else. 

I started a youtube collab channel with my friends : Wallflower Gals ~Hai! is what you look up for my "video"

Okay enough updates, here's my storytime(s) for the post

Storyone: Failure.. that's the title

So, (I laughed so hard at myself for this btw)
In  my history/ss class we have this "tradition" of clapping for someone when they handout papers to the class... and I hate it when people clap for me or like sing happy birthday to me in PUBLIC *shivers down my spine. So anyways my teacher asked me to hand out the hw. Ugh. and Ew. (lol) but then everyone started clapping for me, and um. I was like "can you make them stop?" and stuff like "I'm gonna drop the papers," stuff like that. So i get the papers and everyone is clapping, and all that jazz, and stupid hand lotion I had put on before, caused me to drop, the like hundreds of papers. (lol) and when I dropped them, I tried to catch them, I ended up bending, not a little, not some,like a lot of them. *insert laughing emoji here.

And there is *one of my failures for ya. 


Now here are some stories and embarrassing things that happen to me on a daily basis:

~my friend talking about something my parents don't know about in front of them
~then trying to cover it up (terribly, like so bad it makes me cry)
~choking on my spit (like every 5 min)
~walking in a ditch or a hole 
~stuttering
~making AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARD AWKWARDx10 eye contact with other people
~being awkward (that=life)


And yeah, so that's it!

New School Year, New You! :)

Haaiiiii! (my fancy way of saying hey) 

I got my chromebook, finally. It's from my school tho, but it's cool. 

So my school started a while ago. Wbu? What's up? 

I'm gonna start a new youtube channel with my baes (my besties). No clue on the names. Ideas? I got none (insert laughing emoji here) It'll be a collab channel. 

I'm over obsessed with 5 Seconds of Summer. No joke. Its crazy. I love them so much. What bands do you like? 

I'll post more since I got this computer. 

(Back to the Post title)


SO school started. I'll prob make a youtube vid on it, even though it will be little late on the topic. But school. Who likes it? Very few people. For many it's just a place to socilize. Which it is. But don't let it get in the way of actual school work. 

Here are some topics on starting school! :)



Shopping: 
We all do BTS shopping, whether it's for school supplies, clothes, or anything else. Get everything you need, and to be prepared. Don't forget to catch sales!

Clothing:
School dress codes. I can't stand them. My gym teacher is like "no jeans" and then I find out that we can't wear leggings. Wait, what? (laughing emoji)

I also have freakishly long arms, and we can't wear shorts shorter than when where are arms are. uncool.

Habits: 
It's good to have habits. Like waking up early, or having a bedtime or homework routine. Waking up early though. We hate it. I always wake up late. It's terrible.

Socializing:
And socializing. Some of us are the popular cheerleaders. Others are the fangirls who are on their laptops until 3 in the morning. Guess which one I am? None. Those are just labels. You are you. And I am me. Remember that. As some of us get bullied, it's important not to lose who you are. I may sound cheesy but it's true. 

Kk, that's all for now!

The Summer

SO, this summer I am finally getting a new laptop. My laptop that I have right now, I have had since I was 8 years old... I'm twelve now. It's a great computer, obviously it's lasted like four years. But living in the moment (meaning at the moment), I am watching Pretty Little Liars, and blogging(obviously). I have like 6 more days of schools, with two more finals- science and math... yay. I'm so ready for SUMMER! I going to spend a week in nature with no technology and a whole lotta bugs (shivers). 

Speaking of which I stayed after school yesterday and sat at the elementary school's playground area. I was sitting with some friends in the grass, where there was a lot of bugs. Like a lot. And all of the sudden my friends were like "Alissa, do you feel that?" and then they started screaming. A HUGE SPIDER was crawling up my back, and I SCREAMED!!! Anyways I just found this in my drafts from like a month ago and I'm too lazy to reread it and proof read it, so sorry if there's any mistakes...#lazy

Logs of Life

So, my computer started working again... sorta. Right now I'm blogging (obviously), and am looking through my journal from 2012 to now. I was hilarious then, and now(it took me forever to spell hilarious). But I would misspell or write sloppily and instead of saying "Life hurts," I would read it as "Life norts." But the point is, that I remember obsessing over my first crush, my parents divorce, Christmas, ect. So, I think it's important to keep a record of things whether it's a diary or a journal (yes there's a difference) or a blog or anything else, because when you're older and get a concussion(that's another story/blog post), and it ruins your memory, these logs of life are important to have.

P.S I finally found the squiggly hyphen thingy :)

PPS: that's my journal! 😏

The week(s)

The Day:

So last week I went to California in order to go to the beach and DisneyLand. I missed a full week of school, sooooo now it's catching up to me. But Disneyland was fun. I finally apologized to jerk #2, and only #2, 'cus we don't like #1. Anyways, something really bad happened tone off my best friends. AND I'm going to the police station tomorrow and  telling them what I know. My friend told me and Zoe, this friend will not be named, but she told us something really bad that would put her in danger, and after told us not to tell anyone, even adults. So what did I do? I told our school's guidance counselor and psychologist. I missed my four morning classes and then left later that day at fifth period. My friend went home too, and we didn't go to school today [Friday]. 

The Quote:
"Change your thoughts and you can change the world" was today's quote.:) 

The Realization:
So, I thought and realized, if you know someone told you not to do or tell anyone about their problem, and it could put them in danger then go with what you think. Be Brave.

The Struggle:
So, you sorta saw one of my struggles in my realization, but I have another struggle. And most teenagers have it too, maybe adults too. I always prepare for something I know I could mess  up, when it's not important. Andthat always makes me mess it up. Ugh.

The Answer:
Don't prepare. "Just do it"-Nike. Just wing it.

{P.S sorry for no pics, and I will work on my other blogs too.}

After "It's been a while"

Well, here since, I did blog yesterday, is what happened the rest of the day after 11 AM. 

The Day:

So, I never said sorry, and things may have gotten worse… for reasons unknown. But I stayed after school, with my friend Zoe, one of my all time besties!! 

My nanny called me and said I had to go home, 'cus we had to go "pick up my dad". This weekend he told us we were going to the Hamptons in NY, and we got to the airport my dad's roommate just dropped us off. As we waited for my dad, my nanny told us we were just gonna take a train home. Then she pulled out two suitcases, we were only going for the weekend?

My dad came and told us we were going to Disneyland in California, and that we were going with some of my family!! (^^^me and my nanny when my dad told me and my little sister^^) I was so shocked! We got on the 6 hour flight, and landed at 10:30. Then we took a two hour drive to get to my grandma'a house. I literally crashed when my head hit the pillow. And Saturday, tomorrow/today (since I'm blogging this on Saturday) my family is coming and we are going to our beach house that my dad rented! 

The Quote: 

You saw my quote of the day on my last blog post so go check it out! :) 

The Realization: 

My life in some ways has been hard, and the fact that I'm getting an 8 day break from my school and stuff makes me just a little bit happier.

The Struggle: 

I can barely sleep on planes. I mean I can take power naps but not for the whole trip, meanwhile the rest of the people with me, my nanny, my dad, and my little sister, were all passed out. I tried but I just couldn't sleep. And then my ears started popping!! I hate it when they do that! And then they keep popping until like never! uggggghhhhh! 

The Answer: 

So for sleeping on planes, if you know you can't sleep on planes than take a nap before your flight, especially when your flight gets in late or your taking a redeye. For the ears popping, you should always chew gum at take off and landing to prevent the ear popping. If they are popped plug your nose, plug one ear and blow! That should help.

Last Weekend

Last week, just so you guys know, I went to DC with my dad, my uncle, my nanny, and my little sister. We went for my dad's work, he a VP at Macy's for Women's Active, Women's Coat, and Women's Swimwear. We also went because my dad and uncle were running a Nike Women's Half Marathon. 

The Day/Weekend:

So we got in late on Friday and I shared a hotel room with my nanny and I bugged her so much, it was hilarious. Then the next day we went to the race to the Nike Expoticue, I think that's how you spell it, and my dad presented a 10,000 dollar donation from Macy's to a cancer foundation sponsoring Nike. When walked it censored you. 

Examples: 

Top: My dad Dustin 

Bottom: My uncle Nate 

Before my dad presented the check, he told us it would only be 5-10 minutes of a wait. WE WAITED FOR A WHOLE FREAKIN HOUR! Then my dad had to go look at some stores so Morgan, my nanny, and I took a bike ride to some monuments. 

Top:Morgan

Then we saw and conquered the Washington Momument. 

Top: Morgan-photo Creds moi

Bottom: Moi- photo Creds Morgan

Then on Sunday we went to the run, and saw my dad finish with Nate. 

Then we met up with my dad's team for work and took some I took pics. 

We left DC after that. :) 

I don't remember the quote or anything like that.

It's been a while

Well, today is May 2. The last time I blogged was in February. I have to make it a habit to blog. I set a reminder on my phone, but I always ignore it. Does anyone else do that? Mainly with alarms? In the morning my school starts at 7:30, and my bus comes at 7:00 am. So I set three alarms;  a pre-pre alarm, a pre alarm, and an alarm. I missed my bus yesterday and the day before. *sigh. See what happened was I pressed snooze so many times, that I officially woke up at 6:52 AM. I ran off rushing to get ready, but I knew that there was no way I could make my bus. So, I really really really hate alarms and stuff like that. But on the weekdays, I will try to blog during lunch at school.

The Day:

Well, it's only 10:13 AM and I'm sitting in a computer lab, with my friend Caroline Pastilha, who is one of the bestest awesomest friends in the world.And we are just playing in on computers. Why? Well, the math state tests were Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.AND WE AREN"T TAKING IT!!!! Yay! We are like the only ones in this other computer lab, and we turned the music playing up ALLLL THEEE WAAAAYYY- okay maybe that's an exaggeration, but you get the point. And now Caroline is SINGING, okay...<<<There's a pic :). Excuse my face. hehehe.  I will probably update it later. But oh well.


My Quote:
"Your path is difficult, but will be generously rewarded."

The Realization:
Well ,my day isn't over , yet. But today I was planning on apologizing to jerk face #1 and jerk face #2. No names will be mentioned, but they weren't the only jerks. (I'm looking at my other friends) So I'll see what happens.If we become "friends" again.

The Struggle:
Well, you saw my struggle with the morning ^^^ up there.

The Answer:
I haven't found the answer yet,'cus I haven't solved this "alarm clock struggle" yet. But I'll put it on my blog when I do find the answer.

I Want To Be Famous

The Day:

So, today was.... Ummm- CRAZY. I was with Corinne, my BFF (like forever), my nanny, Morgan, and Shiloh, my sister. We left at like 11:30 to go to the Sony Wonder Technology Lab Museum, where my face was like everywhere (I wanted to be famous.) PS we used fake names 👌

Then to a craft place, I painted a Kitty and so did Corinne. I added to my family of crafts (meaning a dog.) Mine was purple gray and Corinne's was black.

( Left to right: mine, Alice (I love that name), uhh Evie (?), and also mine, Bryce. Later we dropped Shiloh of with my dad, and went to see the Lego Movie. (👍👍👍👍👍- meaning great movie) 

My Quote:

"Visualize what you want today, and you will get" was my quote today. (I love my fortune cookie app) I love this.

My Realization:

I wanted to be famous, and I was. My picture up the showed my face six times. I was everywhere!! 😂😂😂 Even though when you think that things like quotes don't relate to anything big in your life, think small. If you look at the big picture you'll never see the small, detailed things in life. 

The Struggle: 

Have you ever been to NYC? If you live (like me) or visit there then you have probably been in the subway. 12 (my age) and older need a metro card. (yay😑) Now for your first time it will probably go like this: 1. Swipe card but it isn't read. 2. Repeat step one a million times. 

3. You go to a different stall. 4. Repeat steps 1 & 2. 5. You FINALLY get onto the subway!!!! 

The Answer:

When you go on the subway gently swipe your card. To fast won't work. To slow won't work either. To hard nor soft too. (Sigh) And sometimes you need money. Lesson learned is that you aren't alone when it comes to not knowing how to use a metro card.

Times Square

The Day:

So today was quite tiring. We spent the morning cleaning the house (we meaning me, Morgan, Shiloh, and Corinne) and later went shopping. We split up and Shi and Morgan went to Toys R Us and The Disney Store in Times Square, and we went to Forever 21. When we got home Corinne and I had a photo shoot.

Top:Me (photo Creds to Corinne) 

Bottom:Corinne (photo Creds to moi) 

After Corinne went home, and my dad, shi and I went to a dinner with some of dad's friends.

My Quote:

"Excuses are hard to manufacture , but easy to sell." 

The Realization: 

I think that this meant today was when I went shopping, (I Think) I spent like $70 at one store, I LOVE FOREVER 21!! And I had no clue why, until I thought and too k the tag off my brand new shoes and saw that they were $40. Knowing this made me feel a little bit better and that the store hadn't ripped me off. 

The Struggle: 

So being in Times Square certainly is an experience; the people, the the stores, EVERYTHING. And then there's the people that dress up as like Elmo and the Cookie Monster and take pictures with you for money, but then there's just mental people doing what they want. So there was this prob mid 40s and was in a leotard dancing and twerking. It was so scary. We didn't go near him. And then the Elmo's were creepy so we stayed clear of them. We were creeped out, you would be too… trust me! 

(^^^the Middle Aged man) and (photo Creds to Corinne)  

The Answer:

I stay near where there's more people so that there's witnesses and people that would help if anything was to happen. If you suspect something find the closest store possible (if your in Times Square) and tell the workers or like hide.
