Card Shark

Yesterday.....went to school, took the easiest language arts test ever....

At lunch I went to the MPR to investigate the source of some...er...interesting food smells, and got in line by Jacob. I was so hungry and the line was sooooo long. By the time we got there everything was gone except crusty maceroni and cheese and some unrecognizable meat doused in barbaque sauce. The kid who gave me my food laughed when he did. Not a good sign. I gave my lunch to ashley who had no reason to question free food. Poor girl.

So I stole David's food instead (as usual), went to world regions where I got nothing done, because there was nothing to get done, as usual. Then went to seminar, where I sat and read a book. As usual.

So all in all typical boring friday. But I didn't care. The week was over. I went over to this one lady's house after school because she wanted to interview me to decide whether she wanted me to be her new babysitter or not. She was really nice, but commented the whole time about how tall I was. "Now Christian's toys are over here....my how tall you are! And his snacks...Your twice my height you know that?"

Then I lazed around when I got home, and we went to the Ward's at 7:00. The guys all left when we got there, except Adam, and we had great fun torturing his mom because we knew who got kicked off American idol and she didn't. and she didn't want to know. muah hahahaha.

The parents got back and so did Joe (unfortunately) but they brought snacks so it was all good. Me and Adam played cards the whole time in his room, and watched Jaws up until somebody got eaten and turned it off. Then he completely kicked my butt at video games, which made me grumpy, but then again, how am I really supposed to be good at super mario smash bros when the only person I play with is my brother who I cream?

We stayed there till 2:00 in the morning, when Jacob got back and our parents actually thought to look at a clock. Oh well, I was about to fall asleep anyway. Playing cards on a comfy bed surrounded by pillows will do that to you. Mind, Jaws in the background isn't exactly lulling, but it was enough.

TODAY

I spent the whole morning feeling fat after consuming all that junk food at Adam's last night, and my dad wasn't helping my mood improve. He drug us to Taco Bell to get lunch and have a "family talk" but it was basically a bunch of complaining, which I admit I contributed to. Then we decided to go to Ramstein to patch things up, and the whole way there discussed what we could do to motivate ourselves to do our chores. My mom stayed at home. Not fair.

It wasn't that bad though. We went to the bookstore and I bought a book. I saw "Triscut" there, (whoopee....) but besides that it was kinda nice. I didn't really want to be at the house, because that's where my homework is, and it is nice to see Germany instead of fences. I just like staring at all the fields and mountains as we drive. There's something about the mountains here that are so pretty and peaceful feeling, whereas in Arizona I felt imprisoned the whole two weeks and never wanted to see mountains again. Huh. That's probably half the reason I like tennis so much, because we would just get on our bus and drive...

course, I was actually good at that sport, so that probably had something to do with it. Soccer's going to be such a nightmare. I should do track...but I just can't make myself. Sigh...my legs are going to fall off after this weekend.
