Blogging!!!

Good morning my fellow bloggers. I am sorry my blog has been without posts in a long time. Vacation has taken the best of me and I have basically been doing nothing. I am ordering an ipod touch today because I got money for Christmas and I want an ipod. I am sorry if this post is lame.

I miss all of you fellow bloggers that don't post.

Um...

Ah Ha!

I have been showed how to add pictures to my blog entries, thanks to Shaelen (I will now add you to my blog roll!). I am pretty much really excited.

My Grandma just came from Pennsylvania. She's pretty cool.

For God's Sakes, yesterday I ordered the wrong iPod. It's pretty frustrating.

I did pretty well on my tests. That's pretty fun, I guess.

Last but not least,

TODAY IS THE START OF VACATION!!!!

I am officially done with school for the year of 2008!

Continuing on, I have some horrible news.

I wouldn't really call this girl my friend, but I played on a soccer team with her 2 years ago and my friends were in her class 2 years ago. She's in the grade below me.

Well...

Her brother died. He was still in High School, too. And it's devastating. I don't know how she feels. I think I might send her a sympathy email or something like that. I don't know what to do. It's just so tragic and my heart breaks for her family.

Moving away from this horrible topic, I now present you with a picture.

It is my favorite picture of all times.

I am in love with it.

Love,

Lucy

Winter Wonderland

It's snowing.... but not just flurrying.
It's downpouring snow, shall we say. I can barely see outside. It is also windy, so the snow is moving in circles. It is absolutely gorgeous. I don't really know if we are going to have a snow day tomorrow because the snow started at around 8 this morning, so it should stop at midnight, which would give the plowers time to clear the snow. I don't really know if I want a snow day. If we had a snow day, then what's the point of going to school on Tuesday when we have the rest of the week off. I don't understand why we didn't just have the whole week off.
Anyways, the snow is falling out of the sky rather quickly and heavily. It also is frissimo outside (frissimo means "very cold" in Spanish).
Moving on, I am starting to decorate my Christmas tree today. My family acually has two. We have a big artificial tree in the dining room and a regular size real tree in the living room. It's cool. I can't wait to decorate... it should look amazing.

I would love to see the ocean right now...

New

New and improved...

I have changed my Crazy Plaid Scarves to footprints in the sand.
I became bored with the idea of Crazy Plaid Scarves, so I brewed up a new blog title. I am pretty sure everything is going to stay the same, but I never know what ideas are going to pop up.

Leaving you with that...
Welcome to Footprints in the San.

Hope.Praying.CMP Guys.POWER

I'm so excited!!! I officially have power (Has it taken long enough??). I feel really bad because Valentine is staying in a motel that is less than half a mile away from her house because she doesn't have power but the hotel does. It really stinks.

I love CMP Guys. They work so hard, and they are awesome!!! They work 17 hour shifts with a 7 hour break in between. But, they do the job and they make loads of families happy.

When I found out I had power, I started yelling and jumping up and down. Living off of a generator that barely helps for 2 days is rough. I mean, come on, I had to use flashlights in the shower at night and sometimes during the day.

Anyways...

Feel free to post comments and I am auwfly sorry for those of you who are still without power (Valentine, so sad). I'll see you in the blog world sometime soon.

Power Generators

So sorry I have not entered a post in a long time. I won't be lazy anymore...

Description of the Weather Outside:
Ice sickles all over the place, power lines down, trees in the middle of the road, freezing!!!!

There's no school today and it's not because of the horrible, icy weather in New England.

It's because it's my birthday. Just kidding, but not about my birthday. Today is my birthday, December 12th. Moving on, today is a conference day for the teachers. To make a long story short, the teachers used to have parent-teacher conferences today but they don't anymore.

So, last night I went to Valentine's house and we watched Meet Dave and had ice cream and popcorn (but not together). We were supposed to go to the theater to see Four Christmases, but the weather was really icky... Anyways, Meet Dave was a pretty good movie. Not hilarious, but chuckles throughout the movie.

When I woke up this morning, I was expecting it to be sunny and warm, but to my surprise, it was pitch black and freezing cold (I also was sleeping in a tank top). I looked at my clock and I couldn't see anything. I wondered what was wrong with it.

Then I realized when the power goes out, my clock doesn't light up.

Doesn't that suck, it's 6:30 in the morning and you have to get out of bed to turn on a light in order to read your clock. Yep, that's what I did.

I went downstairs a couple minutes later. My birthday "vision" was to see the lights on, smell the cinnamon rolls baking, and see my presents on the kitchen table. Instead I saw four candles on the kitchen table and the fire in the living room going. If you haven't guessed it by now, the power was out.

I waited until about 7:15 to open presents... they were nice, but not really what I expected. But that's okay, as least I got some.

By this time, I was tired, cold, and hungry, and I was not so excited about my birthday.

Finally, my wonderful dad hooked up the generator which brought power to some of the house, but now I have internet!!!!!

So, thank God for Power Generators!!!!

Adios from your newly crowned 13 year old New England Girl who is half way sad because her birthday isn't want she expected.

P.S. I feel really bad for the other schools around my town because they have a snow day and it's not even January. :(

Prelude

Prelude has begun in my small little Maine town. I didn't go to the tree lighting on Friday, but my friends did, I wish I had gone. Anyways, the only time the Port is packed is when it's either Summer or Prelude. I love Prelude. Plus, when it's Prelude, all the stores give out free candy, but they don't in the Summer. So... my aunt and uncle came into town, we went out to dinner and then went shopping downtown, where I got tall, sand Uggs. Today (First Snow!!!), we are going to a breakfast buffet. It seems that Prelude always involves food, cold, and walking/shopping downtown, which would also mean some money.

More Entries Later,

Friends

"What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies." 

-Aristotle

That is the definition of a friend.

I am posting this because my friends have been in a little "fight", shall we call it.  I have understood every word both of my friends have said and I am making this because I think a friend is exactly what Aristotle quoted.  I just wanted to point out to my two friends that everybody has their little bickerings and theirs was now.  I hope everybody (on both sides) learns from this experience and realizes that nobody's perfect.
