I ♥ my drug buddies!

Another day at camp today. Did camp like stuff. Talked about Fred, William, and AndrewRyan. Finished my dragon. Rawr. He's vicious. Annie and I had food thrown at us, but we were totally innocent. Alex got mad at me because I kept telling him I loved his hair. But it's not my fault. His hair is just really good. The vending machine wouldn't let me buy Dr. Pepper. Got in a tiff with Drew. Can't stand him. He's so annoying. He has no idea who Paramore is, and he doesn't like my hair. He's dead to me. But other than that it was okay. I had a good day because Rosie said Rohan's spiking his mohawk on Monday. It's kinda hot though. I don't like that.
In case you're wondering where the music is coming from, the playlist is at the bottom of the page. It's pretty amazing.

[Love my drug buddies, Lizzie and Megan!]

Loam is my love

So yesterday Edy came to pick me up at like 9, for her party. But, since it wasn't for 2 hours, we went grocery shopping! [One of my favorite past times.] So while we were sitting in the car, we were watching a guy in a blue SHIRT like steal stuff from other people's cars. He was totally going to kidnap us. No lie. As we're driving to Edy's house I see a sign for loam [dirt]. So I'm like 'Loahm!' And Edy's like 'It's pronounced loom.' And I'm like 'Really?' So then we went to Edy's house and we looked it up. And......Edy was right. It is 'loom.' Then we watched Fred for a little bit.
But anyway. Once everybody got there we were all in the pool and it was wicked nice. All wet and such. But sadly I got a sunburn. Along with Katay and Elizah apparently. But it was wicked fun. We were all like playing with pool noodles. I wore a cookie box on my head. Hayley took a picture. Edy, Abbey and I sang some songs. Katay and I had everyone decide if we should be in a tiff or not...and almost everyone voted yes except for Hannah and Julia, I think? But we weren't. But Katay was REALLY sad because William wasn't there. Pretty fun though...loved it. Amazing.
It's going to take a long time to blog about today's party....if you're lucky I'll have it up tonight. [You won't get lucky.]

Lizzie-Once I marry people, I leave them. Me-Oh, well that's nice.

Today was pretty...I have no idea how to describe today, actually. How would you describe a stretch Hummer limo+party on a boat+lots of sugar&soda+crazy people who make you laugh+dancing+yelling weird stuff to other boats+random guys who work on the boat+music+8 hours?? I have absolutely no idea!
So it's Abby's birthday party today. [Her actual birthday was May 25.] So we had to ride to the harbor in a stretch Hummer limo, because it was in another state. And I know Hummers are really bad for the environment...but I'm not going to lie. It was really cool. It fit like 16 of us, it had a bar, the ceiling lit up, there were lava lamps, which, as Miranda learned, were really hot. We were listening to music wicked loud and acting crazy all the way over. Laura got in an ice cube fight with Sam, and Frenche and I kept getting hit. It was pretty fun. Besides, you know, the time I got hit in the nose.....
Anyway. The boat was so nice! It had like a top deck, and a inside with 2 tables and a bar, and a downstairs with a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and 2 bedrooms. We were running all over the place. It was really windy once you got out there. There was a ton of random music playing, and somehow Frenche knew all of it, so she would like sing and dance, and Alana, Sara, Abby or Lizzie would come and randomly jump with her. The pictures are pretty rad, and when she sends them to me, I'll add them.
There was a guy there named Mateo, and Amy and Emily kept annoying him, but he was pretty good about it. His hair was pretty....um, well it was big. I told him about William and I, and showed him my ring, so he was like 'How old is he?' So I'm kinda thinking, weird question, but whatever. So I'm all 'He's 23.' And he's like 'And how old are you?' So I'm like '21.' And then he's like 'Oh! So you're in college!' And then I had to tell him what college I'm going to, and what I'm majoring in. Because he's going into college too. Next year. It was a lovely conversation.
And then there was Victor. He was wicked nice. Lizzie asked him if he would marry her, and he said yes. Isn't that sweet? There was also this lady who was on the boat and she was really inquisitive/creepy. She was asking Lizzie and I all these questions and I told her about Jas and she's like 'Oh! You should have brought her!' But then later? When we were having cupcakes, Miranda dared Megan to stuff the cupcake in her face, so she did, and we were cracking up sooo hard. So then Amy did the same thing, and Emily smeared some frosting on her face, and mine too. So I took the funniest pictures of the three of them, and Avery, all with frosting on their faces. It's adorable. But then Amy's like 'I need to wash this off.' So she goes upstairs to get a napkin, and the lady is like 'What?!?' So Amy's like 'Um, someone stuffed a cupcake in my face.' So the lady is like 'No! You stay away from them! This is the first thirteenth birthday I've had in 30 years, and I don't want that kind of thing happening!' She seriously spazzed. And we're all shooting each other these looks like 'What is she doing?' While Amy's just kind of like 'Yeah, whatever.'
Then Mateo gave Amy his number. His real number. Laura was like 'Wow, that's nice.' And Victor gave Miranda his. I was like 'Miranda, Lizzie's married to him. You can't have his number.' And Lizzie's like 'Whatever. Once I marry people, I leave them.' It was just weird that they were giving out their numbers though.
But it was way way fun. Like really? Drastically fantastically fierce.
If you're not going to school tomorrow, you're way lucky. I wish I could stay home. But if you are, then you are going to LOVE my hair. It's going to be really cute. Bring your cameras :]
<333
[Oh and guess what! Apparently AndrewRyan only has one shoulder, because a polar bear ate the other one. No, actually he only has one, and the other one is like, metal, because he got in a car crash. Love him.]

Hmm!

Alright so. Today.
Homeroom- Um..nothing much? Just kinda wandered around. Julia broke her foot jumping on a trampoline, so we had a lovely chat about that. [Her foot, not the trampoline.]
Spanish- Talked about the Spanish project.
Computer-Looked at really ugly laptops. Gross.
Science-Notes.
English-We worked on our story/play Here are our characters:
Fred-Played by me
William-Played by Katie
Sister P-Played by Elizah

We all go to the zoo. It's amazing. Really.
Thats....pretty much it.
Oh. By the way. This is my new best friend. You know, besides all my other best friends. His name is AndrewRyan. He lives in Alaska and shoots polar bears.

Are you sure this a hotel and not a jail?

Okay, so I'm back from Italy. Well, I was yesterday, but I was too tired to wrote anything. I kept falling asleep when we were watching Bones. But seriously, Italy was ah-may-zing!! Love love loved it. [And, just for the record, I didn't loose Mercy Spice.]
Saturday: We had to drive to school and leave all our cars there [since it was a school trip]. Then we got on the bus an drove to the airport and we're all like, way hyper. Most of the people were flying into Germany and then Italy [split flight], but some of the people were flying into Ireland, so we split up. When we got on the plane I got to sit next to Hannah and Elizah, and we all watched Enchanted on our cool little movie screens. The first flight was 8 HOURS LONG. [How's that for the longest I've sat still, Lizzie?] But we got up like an hour before the flight was over to use the loo, as we say in Britain. There were all there people there and the flight attendant told us we weren't allowed and some lady behind us was like "Huh, I wonder why?" So I convinced her it was a bar.
Sunday, I guess: Then we switched flights and I slept through some of the second one and we were all messed up because of the whole 'time change' thing. We waited on the bus and had some fun with Hayley's phrase book. After the Ireland people found us we started to go around Rome. Everyone fell asleep in the bus ride as the tour guide was explaining things because we were all so tired. We went to a really pretty square the first day and then to the Pantheon. We also went to the Spanish Steps where Megan got some fierce sunglasses and Miranda stole a rose. [Don't worry she gave it back.] Then we drove to this hotel with this gorgeous view but absolutely no heat at all. Hannah, Elizah and I were freezing. Also , the shower didn't drain for like, 10 minutes. We had dinner at this fahbulous restaurant with this ah-may-zing playground. It had the coolest spinny thing. It could fit six people and you hold onto the middle and spin it around. If you go fast enough, you scream, and when you get off your stomach feels sick and you want to 'park a custard.'
Monday, somewhat adjusted to the time zone: We went to Vatican City!! So shin diddy. Ohmigawd it was so ah-may-zing! The Pope wasn't there but that's okay. Mercy found it quite inspiring. It was still really cool. We got to see the Sistine Chapel, and they are SO uptight there! You can't stand still, you can't talk, and you can't take pictures. I get that last one though. Then we drove to a ceramics factory/food store thing on our way to the hotel in Assisi, and I know, you're thinking boring, and to be honest, we were too, but they had all kinda of food samples. The chocolate was ah-may-zing, and the olive oil and sauce was really good too. Katie somehow managed to sample the liqueur and apparently that was good too. Then, outside they had a huge dumpster and said we could keep anything we found in it. So, you guessed it, we went dumpster diving. It was really...well lets just say we'll be better off if it doesn't make the yearbook. Then we got to our hotel, and it was...kinda dark. There were 4 beds so Macy stayed with us that night.
Tuesday!: Today we went on a walking tour of Perugia and it was really pretty. There was a really cool view of the town and all these artists sketching it. Laura has amazing camera skills and could be a professional photographer. And there were amazing stores, so of course we went shopping. Then we drove back to Assisi and we went on a tour there too. We also went to the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi, when he was buried. They also had really cool shops, so we went shopping there too. Then we went out to dinner which was so much fun, ohmigawd. We gave each other some new nicknames.
Katie-Zachariah
Elizah- Zeppy Allen [Led Zeppelin+Ethan Allen]
Mary-Old Jeremiah
Hayley- Grandma Ethel [She's a bit out there. Never should have let her near me.]
Hannah-Clyde
Me- Bonnie [Clyde and I rob banks]
We also found out about Katie's soon-to-be-husband, William Nitwit. He is ah-may-zing. He flips his hair and his job is looking good for Katie. I am her maid of honor and i'm wearing my 'I ♥ the Vatican' shirt over a yellow dress to her wedding.
After dinner we went back to the hotel in Assisi and Hannah left to curl her hair at midnight....
Wednesday already?: I wake up to the wake-up call. Elizah does not. Elizah could sleep though anything. I realize that I slept with my glasses on. And that the light is on. And they I'm still wearing my hoodie. All of a sudden I hear knocking on the door so I wake Elizah up and I answer it. And it's Hannah with her Dad. It turns out Elizah and I fell asleep so she couldn't get back in, because she didn't take the key, and the doors lock automatically. I felt bad, but Elizah laughed. ANYWAY, today we drove to Florence and saw lots of lovely statues. Most of which needed clothes. Badly. Then we walked around and visited a really really big church. When we got to our hotel that night we weren't happy about the fact that we were on the third floor and there were no elevators. It was my favorite room though,but the only problem was there were SO MANY MOSQITOES. We got bit so much. It was really bad.
Thursday...: Hmmmm Thursday! We drove out to Siena and had a lovely tour. We went into a huge church that had green and white stripes like a candy cane. It was so big, for real. Then we went to lunch and I went shopping with Hannah and Elizah. Then we drove back to the hotel and curled Laura's hair. We had quite a lovely time.
Friday ♥: Back to Rome! On the way to Rome we stopped to see David. He was nice. You know. Macy kept getting yelled at for taking pictures because they weren't allowed. Then we drove drove drove to see the Colosseum! We didn't go it because it was going to be like, an 80 minute thing, so we went with Laura and her Mum to see the Trevi fountain, and we only threw ONE coin in. Hehe. Then we went to meet our group at a pizza place where we met lots of multi-lingual people. They were all quite nice. Then we went to the Trevi fountain again, but with our whole group this time. The funniest thing happened on the way over there. They have all these people selling stuff, like roses, for money. All of a sudden one of them pops out in front of me and shoves the rose in my face and is like 'Ahhhhh!' We all stopped and started laughing so hard!! After that we stopped for gelato [gelato in Italy is soooo good] and went to our hotel. Our hotel had like, bars over the windows. It looks like a jail. It was near a store called Bimbo Planet. Katie shops there. Since we were staying with Megan and Miranda that night we had a 'juite' [jail+suite]. It was normal size with two extra beds shoved in. Suprisingly, we went to bed relatively early.
Saturday, 3 AM: No, I'm not lying. The people flying into Germany had to get up at 3AM. We weren't all there, as Katay showed by singling this lovely song:
"It's a moooooon. And it's shinnnnnnnny. And it's a moooooooooon. And it's shinnnnnnnnnnnny."
[Repeat 50 times.]
So we get on the short flight, and I'm like out. I fell asleep so fast. Then we went on the 8 hour flight and I watched Juno, which was ah-may-zingly fierce. Then Katay made me watch the Rocky Horror Picture Show but it was weird so i started watching National treasure 2. Anyway, I got bored with that too, so I just read and stuff.
Then we got on the bus so drive back to school where the cars where and I'm like 'It's 9 at home and everyone made fun of me. Then we're driving by the state house and Megan goes 'Is that the White House?'[ It was so funny because then we started randomly going 'Ohmigosh, is that the Colosseum?' And other random landmarks. Megan also left this lovely note on my iPod:
Right now we're driving home from Italy which was quite interesting, I must say. There are too many things to list that we did. So Mercy Spice had a mouthful of things to say about the trip. She even used the bidet [Pronounced baday, by the way] and had a fun time. Remember the beautiful drawing on out way hahahahahahahaha! I'm gonna miss the old Italiano playgroundo buy you know I'm glad to be home with English people. We now have a ton of stuff to talk about in science. Ohh wait, WE GOT MOVED! Hmm that's not nifty...I have to pee.
TMI Megan. Love that though. Um, no pictures because my camera is out of battery and I think I lost the charger, but when if finally gets working I'll put them up. Loved Italy, bottom line. It was gorgeous. But that's all for now.
xoxoXO missed you all♥
