Hot Chocolate!

I hope you guys had a good Thanksgiving. I've decided the next Christmas song for my blog it is one of my favorites, not because of the lyrics, but because of the animation and chocolate. It is Hot Chocolate from The Polar Express. Enjoy!

Libraries...

Ah, the sweet aroma of books breathing heavily on a shelf, sleeping until awoken by an excited reader. Which reminds me, I'm in my mom's library right now. That Twilight movie is coming out tomarrow. This has been the talk of the day at school. I got in a fight with Katie who insited that Twilight was the better than Harry Potter. Twilight is very good, but Harry Potter is still the best. I likes the whole Twilight series until the fourth. Three- quarters of it was very awkward, and by the time we got to the suspense waiting for something interesting to happen... they talk it over. That is it. Meyer is a good writer, I'll give you that. The fourth book fell way bellow her standard. If you want to be a good writer, you have to be good the whole series. Not the first three books. Sorry Leah. Well, I should probably go study for Spanish- bye!

Again...

it is snowing. Ah I love the snow, swirling and twisting in the air and also... Keep it up- we may have a snow day tomorrow! I Capture the Castle is really good, but on Netflix it says the movie is rated R. ?. I do not understand that. Well, I hope it keeps snowing. Bye!

Hey!

I just made a face book account and it isn't as fun as my blog, but you can i.m people and get flair... it is kinda addicting.

The Deathly Hallows

Sick...

Blah, I threw up my breakfast this morning, and now I am getting slightly bored, so I decided to type on my blog even though I don't have anything to type about. La la la... Oh yeah, the school's musical is going to be Willy Wonka Jr. I think I am just going to be stage crew. We get to make the set in art club too. I woke up at 3:00 this morning. I haven't been sleeping well. Oh, I am reading a really good book called I Capture the Castle. It is one of my mom's and J.K. Rowling's favorite books. Guess that is it. Oh yeah, I said I would put on another Christmas song, let me see, how about Rudolph the Red- Nosed Reindeer. I saw some deer at the bus stop the other day. Well, bye!

Christmas!

Get Myspace Christmas Countdown

I do.

Mom said...

that I should put the recipe for one of the most unhealthiest foods in the world on here- but it is so good!
Donut Holes: You need a Pillsbury biscuit package (only 50 cents:), oil, cinnamon, and sugar. Pull the biscuits apart and cut each one into 4 smaller pieces. While doing this, let the oil boil in a pot. Put the dough into the pot and stir. The cinnamon ad sugar needs to be mixed together in a bowl. Once the dough is brown, the someone has to quickly roll the donuts in the sugar, so you can be read for the next batch. This takes a total of about 5 minutes, and is really good. Try it some time! If you have any questions, ask.

It's snowing!!!

Huzzah! It is snowing! I like snow. It is sooo pretty. I can't wait until Christmas. I love a white one. Last year it was a boring green Christmas. This reminds me of one of my favorite Christmas songs- Heat Miser and Snow Miser. I can lip synch this song, and I have a whole dance to it. It makes me look like a nerd but I have fun with it. Well, I guess that is it- bye!

p.s. I need a new book to read.
p.s.s. I have decided to put up a new Christmas song every week if i have time.

Ha Ha!

Inkdeath Story Spoiler

I liked Inkdeath- especially the role Funke had Jacopo play. I'm sad that Meggie fell in love with Doria, I liked Farid:( Oh well. I wish Funke revealed her little brother's name. Oh yeah, press this to see a clip from the movie, Inkheart. Other than that, the book was great. I found out the German title for Inkdeath is Tintentod. For some odd reason, it isn't quite as menacing. My favorite character is either Meggie, Dustfinger, or the highly lovable Jasper. I also like Jink and Gwin. I have also grown a fondness for Brianna and Roxane, which I hadn't before. The picture at the top of the page is Meggie- just a FYI. Oh yeah, I just finished Ashes of Roses. It was so sad...

The school is doing a musical this year, and I think I'm doing it this year, but I don't know what it is yet... I finally got Inkdeath- it is great so far.

Tufted Titmouse

This is mom's (and one of my) favorite bird. Cute huh?

Can't Wait 'til December...

for many reasons. A.) The Tales of Beedle the Bard B.) Saint Nicholas Day C.) a week off of school D.) fun stuff at school E.) CHRISTMAS! I want the new yellow i- pod nano. Those are very cool. It has already snowed a couple times here. I can't wait until ski season. I love skiing. I like November too because A.) 3 days off of school and B.) Thanksgiving. This first marking period went by so quickly. There is only 5 more days to it. Well I guess that is it. Oh yeah, I am reading The Girl Who Heard Dragons which is good so far. I just finished The Calder Game, book club is still on Tunnels, and my class is reading Ashes of Roses. Jazz band just started too. I have been pretty busy.

Happy Hallowe'en!

I was Hermione- again. For school I stole Emily's medieval dress and was just a random medieval person. My neighbor hosts an annual Hallowe'en (that is how they spell it in England) party, which was okay but there was no one there my age, so mom and dad said I have to invite some friends over next year. I got a lot of chocolate! MMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe we are going to have a new president in 4 days (actually they are being sworn in in January I think). Lucy was a witch for Hallowe'en, but Caroline stole her hat. I need to get a picture of her online. I loved school yesterday! We saw the music video for the Thriller in science and we blew up candy. The sugar with certain chemicals makes a flame. Note: do not try that at home. Also, chocolate does not work very well. On Thursday we had Ellis Island day, try this website . It shows a whole bunch of people who came over. We got to dress up and make a whole story. I am Elise from France. My family heard fro my uncle that America is the place of opportunities. So my family went ahead and told me to come over when they got there. We had a lot of fun. Well, that's it!

p.s. Christmas is in a little less than two months!
p.s.s. On Emily's calender, it says that Harry Potter 6 the movie is coming out this month, but I heard it is coming out in the summer. Very confusing...
