I really like this song!!! My mom and I agree that Bon Jovi gets better looking as he gets older. :) hehehe I think all teenagers or any one could relate to this song.... or teenagers want to right? If that makes sense :)
Enjoy!

School is out and Marching band is in...
School got out on May 23rd. So that is my excuse for not writing on my blog or writing my story.....it as been really busy. The last day of school was fun, I got to hang out with my friends and part all night!!!! Ok... maybe not all night :)
Marching band has been fun... when I am not banging my fingers on the rim of the drum... owe!!!!! I play the violin, but it is not a Marching Band instrument, so they stuck me on the smallest bass drum. The bass drum is still too big and it hurts my back like crazy!!! It makes me feel like I am pregnant. Or at least I think so :) The uniform is black and yellow. It is the high school colors, and the uniform is heavy plus marching in black is not my idea of fun, it will be a killer to march in. AND having the bass drum on my chest isn't going to help. Our first parade is this Saturday the 7th. We've only had a week to work on the song we sound pretty good, but having been on the drum for only a week is well... I am going to suck and mess up cadence just to put it to you straight :) teehee I will try not to mess up.
I will put a picture of me in my uniform up later tonight

School is fun...
I am here in 3rd hour doing nothing, because I am done with my Core Test. Life has been good and I am doing well. We have about 16 days of school left to go!!! I can't wait until we are done with the school year.
I have started a new book. All of my friends have told me to read it so I have. I LOVE it! It is called the Ranger's Apprentice by John Flanagan. I am almost done with the first one, and can't wait to read the second one. All seven of them are written, but only 4 are out in the United States. In fact two of my friends are sitting next to me reading the 4th one right now... I should be reading too, but I wanted to take a break and write on my blog that I keep forgetting to write on. teehee :)

Wind
Yesterday we reached an amazing wind speed of 50 mph where I live. It was blowing things all over the palce. My friend's basketball stand blew over onto another guys truck... 3 times. It was so strong that it was bowing our windows. Walking home from school was like walking to a tornado. My violin was trying to blow away too. My friends say that it is like this all the time here. It was howling all night long, and that made it really hard to sleep soundly. It was a really cold wind too. It ripped up our tarp thingy so now it is in shreds. Let me just say that I really hate the wind. :P

Absolutely (teehee) nothing
Just as the title says I am blogging on absolutely nothing. Don't ask me why I just am having a very random day. I have been home sick with something and have gone out of my mind sitting around watching movies and taking a nebulizer every 3 hours. :P
A couple of good things that came out of me being sick was one, my mom had her built in babysitter at home so she could write with out the little ones bugging her, and two was that I got to finish a very good book. It is by K.L. Fogg and is called Serpent Tide. I really loved it. I asked my brother to go back to school and check out the 2nd one. He came back with what I thought was the 2nd one, so I started to read it. As I got to about the third chapter I was wondering why I didn't really understand what was going on. It turns out my brother was mistaken and got me the third one instead. Oh well... I am just going to have to wait till I can get the 2nd one myself. :)
Any way I think I am done rambling now. :) teehee

Marshmallow....
I am blogging on marshmallows just for my friend.
Here it goes....
Marshmallows are made up of sugar or corn syrup, water, gelatin that has been pre-softened in hot water, dextrose, and flavorings, whipped to a spongy consistency. Marshmallows used to be made of an extract from the mucilaginous root of the marshmallow plant, a shrubby herb (Althaea officinalis). The mucilaginous helped soothe sore throats. (I think that is cool you may have been able to eat marshmallows when you were sick! we can't do that any more)
It is known that the Egyptians use to make marshmallows out of honey and marshmallow root, and it is the earliest known use to us. The marshmallow root was used up until the 1800's then gelatin replaced it.
Roasting marshmallows is popular in the United States, Canada, Australia and the UK. To roast a marshmallow, you either put it on a stick, skewer, or some people use antlers. Then you turn it around till it is golden brown. Some people like it burnt though. S'mores are made by placing a toasted marshmallow on top of a slice of chocolate which is placed between two graham crackers.
You can use marshmallows in many many recipes. They are tasty and are always yummy to eat!

BFF's
On my mom's blog, she wrote about her BFF. She got the idea from another blog, so I am going to write about my BFF.
Her name is Megan, and we've have been Best buds since we knocked each other on our butts in 5th grade. We were walking/running to the lunch line I was going one way she the other and we ran into each other not really meaning too. We got up and instead of yelling at each other we smiled and started to talk. It turns out she was born in Long Beach California. She has a sister, a huge Great Dane/ Black lab, and I think 6 cats. :)
We are really bad at being quite... the first time she came over we started to dance and sing. Well lets just say we caused some problems with that.
We also liked to roller blade down steep hills in my neighbor hood, and we got locked in the food storage room... we pushed the door shut and my brother hit it so hard that is got pushed in and jammed. We talk a lot on the phone too. My mom gets mad at me for talking to much :)
We can say with out a doubt we are very crazy! We are alike in so many ways but different too. It makes the friendship funner!
Even though I have moved, we still keep in touch and miss each other terribly. I want her to know that I love her tons and that we will be friends forever and ever.
I would also like to thank my other friends that have done sososososososo much for me every day that I am with them. I love them too!
