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.

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.
