Vampire Vocab

We left on Christmas Day. Travel was as travel always is: boring, uncomfortable, but the pains are staved off by the promise of arrival. Five and a half hours in the air and one connection in Miami later, my siblings, father and I stepped out of Juan SantaMaria Airport and were met by a rush [...]

Every year I write a note to Santa. This year, I posted it on my Kaboodle list. I transcribed it here. (Beware, ridiculously sappy)
Dear Santa,
This year has been incredibly exciting. All this year I have been reminded of all the people around me who love me and all of the things that I am thankful [...]

On my nice little laptop at my dad’s house, I’ve had a problem for a while. My default  page (Google) turned into something called “mywebsearch”. Umm…just for the record, I, being most likely the only computer illiterate blogger EVER, do not even know HOW to change such a thing. Also, a folder called “homework” popped [...]

I call you guinea pigs, my devoted or not-so-devoted readers because you are about to be subject to a short story. My short story. It’s not too late to turn back. …No? Brave soul. You see, my drop-dead gorgeous mother was talking to me the other day and she informed me that she had noticed [...]

I’ve made this recipe quite a few times, and it’s recieved great reviews each time. Not from Epicurious for once! It’s really good and easy, plus it’s been described as “Coma-inducing”. In a good way.

I suggest puree-ing raspberries and spreading them between the layers. Chocolate and raspberries…yum!

It seems that, though not my favorite class, math seems to be my most interesting not due to the class itself, but because of the students in it. I write journal entries about school in my free time about it, therefore I’ll share a few that I’ve written. Some even have Haikus in them!

Ah, yes, [...]

It seems that I am becoming the go-to source for birthday cakes. I’m glad, actually. I love making cakes because they are a challenge and so much harder to make than cookies, brownies or cupcakes. (Usually. Some cookies, cupcakes, and brownies can be scary. Seriously.) A couple months ago I made Anne a birthday cake. [...]

We were doing Round Robin, a game where we create a story as an ensemble, in my theater class at Piven. One story we told stuck out to me so, as I am prone to do, I am going to post it. I didn’t name the characters, by the way. Otherwise, the main characters name [...]

   To all those who commented on my Academic Goal posts with their favorite inventions, or why they like the fridge, thank you. I really couldn’t have done it without you. also, it seems to me that by doing so, you have emphasized what blogging is about: sharing information, ideas and opinions. Helping others reach [...]

Last week, my language arts teacher wrote the word “Segragation” on the board and told us to write for ten minutes what the word makes us think. What it makes us feel. Our reactions. In a little while, I’ll post what I wrote, but for now, here’s what occured afterwards:
Our language arts teacher discussed our reactions [...]
