Back to school finally

Well after having had so much time to rest over the summer, with sadly no interesting stories or adventures as I hoped, I am finally back to school. By the way, really happy that I am too. It felt like so long passed before we came back, but as soon as I walked in the doors of my first period class it felt as if it had been just yesterday when I last was there. Well that just is because I am taking Journalism again, thanks to that I have the privilege to be with the same teacher once again.Even though there are many new faces and many which have left off to college, it still feels the same to walk in. I believe that was a really nice way to start the first day of school.

Well after that, I followed the rest of my new Junior schedule. Soon I found myself in my second period class, which is Dance. It was great to be in that class again, because I couldn't take it on my sophomore year, but its nice to be back. I think that it was my favorite class. Notice how I didn't say favorite teacher, ha ha, but favorite class. Anyway, there my teacher didn't waste time and got us dancing during the first 15 minutes. She already started teaching us the warm-up, I believe. Yes. It was really fun, and I also thought, well if I do good, why not try out for the dance team, it seems like a lot of fun. So, maybe if I get the hang of things I might try out for the dance team, so wish me luck. Please. :)

Now, I mentioned my favorite class, my journalism class, what about my favorite teacher. Well, for some reason, my favorite teacher so far (besides my journalism teacher) is my physics teacher. Who happens to be a guy, and I usually don't like male teachers, I don't know why, I just don't. Well, my physics teacher is really cool and funny, and I am sure that he is going to do a great job teaching us. So because of that he is my favorite so far. Though, it might also be because he gave me back my nickel.... hmmm... ha ha who knows, I just know he is cool.

Besides that, nothing else happened. I saw my friends again, saw the new people coming in, all the freshmen, naturally looked for the people that I remembered, and tried to keep up. Oh, well I also had ROP during the first class, but the I deducted that it was going to take too much of my time, and how was I going to do my homework then, so I doped out. Oh well, maybe next year I'll give it another go.

For now, that's all I gotta say, so,
until next time,

Dream #28 Driving?

Well this weekend I spent it at my cousin's house in Los Angeles, and I had a great time. However who would have thought that I would remember the dream I had. Well I really don't know, but while we were on our way back it just flashed in my head and I remembered every single detail. I knew that I wouldn't forget it because it was really clear, but I wrote it down anyway.

I dreamt that I had to go to school, I was late and my parents were now where to be seen, no one could drive me to school. So, I decided to take a big truck that was just outside my house, I really have no idea how that happened because I don't think that's possible. I guess a dream is a dream, right? Anyway, I took the truck, which was just like the one on the picture, only difference is that it was gray. I got to school alright, parked the truck somewhere near school, along a really tall wall. Went to all my classes and at the end of the day I gave a ride to most of my friends. When I got home I found out that I had gotten a parking ticket, and it was awful. No one had noticed that I took the truck. (Apparently it was my dad's). Now I had to tell them, because I had gotten a parking ticket.So I told my dad and he wasn't mad, but happy that I didn't crash or something. Then I woke up. Weird huh?

Well, I don't know, but I think I dreamt this because my dad's been telling me that he's going to take to take the written driving test. So that I can get my permit. I am really excited about that, he said that maybe after I get my license, he'll get me a car. Isn't that great?! lol.. I can't wait.

My next road trip...

I just found out recently that we will be out on the 'open road' very soon. Not to move though, *sigh* but to go to Mexico to visit some family. From what I've heard, I think my parents are deciding to make this a sort of tradition. Since my mom and sister got papers, we have been going every single time we have the chance.I really don't mind, however, it is kind of scary to think we are going all the way there in car.

Well, besides that, it seems that we will be making many stops before we actually reach our destination. I don't know how many or where, but we are. It was my dad's idea, but hey, I think he just wants to go by Vegas before getting straight on the road. It does sound exciting and all, but with all that's going on, I hope we make it there safe and sound. Plus on the way back. lol.

I can't decide if I'm impatient or scared,

Dream #27 Falling Elevators!! :o

Now, I will warn you, I am a little scared about this reoccurring dreams that I have been having. I have been dreaming a lot with elevators these last days, I haven't written about them though, because for many reasons I have been forgetting. The only one I wrote down was the one where I was on an elevator and it seemed like a video game I sometimes play.

Anyway, today my dream started with the falling elevator. I was trapped inside of it and I remember feeling really scared. At first the elevator starts going up, then it starts falling. Really fast. I don't know why, but for some reason, I remember falling and how it felt really clearly. I also remember feeling alone, and having no one there with me. There was nothing I could do to save myself. After that, when I was somehow back outside, far away from that elevator, I found myself in some kind of hotel. To my despair, the building starts sinking, right into the grown, and the place starts flooding with water. The only way to safety was up. So I start making myself up. On the way, I find a couple puppies which happen to belong to two girls, who are twins. I don't remember much after that. the last thing I remember is being at the roof of the building and just observing how the earth ate up the building.

Scary huh, it is really the most scary dream I've  had in a while.
Well, hopefully it doesn't happen again,

A-Team is Awesome!!!! 2 bad i missed the series...

The other day I went to my uncle's house with my dad. When I asked my dad what we were going to do over there he told me "Oh, we are going to go watch some good movies" I would never have thought that he meant it this time. ^o^ Usually we go and do basically nothing, this time we just sat there and saw some really good movies. One which was A-team. It was really good. Well I personally liked it. Then my uncle started talking about a series in the 1980's. I did not know about those, but then I started thinking, I wish I had seen it. I am probably going to look it up or something, I don't know.

Well just in case you haven't heard of them, (like me) here are the summaries of the 2010 movie and the 1980's series:
A-team(2010):
Four American soldiers who are in Iraq are sent on a mission to recover plates for printing 100 dollar bills that were used to print a billion dollars. After doing the job and returning to the base their commanding officer is killed in an explosion and the plates are stolen by another operative. They would be court martialed and sent to different prisons. 6 months later, the leader, Hannibal Smith is visited by a CIA spook who tells him he knows where the man who took the plates is and wants him and his men to recover it. So he helps him escape and he breaks out the others and they go after the plates. But after doing it, they discover that the spook might not be ok. And a military intelligence officer who was involved with one of them is pursuing them. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com
Based on the hit T.V. show in the 1980's. During the Vietnam war a 4 man team (known as the A-Team) of Special Forces were (wrongly) convicted of the robbery of the bank of Hanoi and were sent to a prison. But, while they were being transferred to that prison, this team managed to escape and secretly went into hiding in Los Angeles. Now, the A-Team aims to find another team of U.S. soldiers that framed them for the crime back in Vietnam,while they wait however they help other people that have a problem with other underworld dwellers. Written by John Wiggins

Well I really liked the movie, and even though I didn't see the series, I am pretty sure that it was good, not worse. It might not have been better than the series, but it was probably just as good. If you don't agree because you've seen them, please let me know. Leave a comment :)
  My favorite character was Murdock (Sharlto Copley). I thought he was really cool, maybe his craziness, or the way he flew. I don't know, but I liked him. By the way I really don't have anything against Bradley Cooper, he was great too.

SO if you have a chance watch it.
'Till next time,

Cirque du Freak review

I finally got the chance to read the last Cirque du Freak book: Sons of Destiny. I have to say it was both what I expected it, and what I didn't. To me it seemed that the end of the series had two ending, because just one of those involved what was really going on with the rest of the series. The other, basically changed everything. I will, however, talk no more because you should read them.

If you have not heard of them, well the story is basically about a young boy that becomes a half vampire and starts on a series of events and treks that take him to many amazing places. Maybe you've seen the movie, Vampire's assistant. I thought it was okay. The books are always better than the movie though, as you might already know.

Well, I also have to say that the thing I most liked about Cirque du Freak was all the many characters I got to meet. They were each really unique and special in their own way. If you've read any of the books, you'll know what I am talking about when I mention Harkat Mulds. He was my favorite.

I thought that the series was very well written, and it always kept me hooked. I really didn't always know what to expect. Even though I didn't read all the books, I started with the fourth one, Vampire Mountain, I always loved the way the prologue told what had happened since the beginning. That way, if I had taken a break in between reading the books , I always knew what was going on. But, ugh, why am I telling you that? If you are interested in a different kind of vampire story, something other than twilight. Ugh.Well go ahead and try this series out. I know that it'll  keep you hooked.
Until next time,
Annie

Day 26 Jak and Daxter

Well today's dream was rather unexpected... For many reasons actually. So I had been playing this video game lately: Jak2. It was pretty entertaining, really. lol. Though, I finished it a couple weeks ago. I would assume that it was what caused today's dream.

I dreamt that I was playing alongside Jak, can you believe that. It was cool for a moment, until I had to fight all those red soldiers. Lol, I guess if you've played it you know what I am talking about. So then I got into this elevator and it shot straight up, it was supposed to take me to another level. I am guessing that it was because the game got stuck or something, so I pressed a button on the elevator and then it began to fall back down. The impact wasn't much, apparently. So I got out like nothing. To my surprise I found someone I didn't expect waiting for me. Someone I knew when I was in middle school. It was kind of funny, because he kept saying how he had saved my life.

Then I woke up, that was it once again,

Day 25 Murderer?!

I would have never thought that I'd dream with any of my family members as murderers. Today I woke up and wrote it down. Lol. I dreamt that one of my uncles, one that I care for, was a murderer, a cold blooded assassin! I could not believe it. Well, you can imagine, it was causing problems. So, in the dream, my cousin and I tried to stop him. Our efforts were very unsuccessful. At one point in the dream I was being chased by one of his dogs. I kept running through this labyrinth, and at one point I came upon 3 men, and all three were shot at. As soon as I realized they were dead, I kept running.After that, I came to my uncle again, and asked him to stop killing, then my cousin joined me and pleaded with me as well. Then I just simply woke up.

I made sure I told my uncle about it. I don't understand what made him laugh.... lol.. no, yes I do, it is because in reality he can't kill a fly.

Well, until next time,
Annie
