tornadoes

we have our first possiblilty of tornadoes this weekend. i've been terrified of them since i was about 5. i had a traumatic experience at the minnesota historical museum in the cities. there is a tornado simulation room and my parents took me in with them. i've went back to it and it's actually not that bad. what happens is you're in this room that looks like a basement with windows by the ceiling and it looked green outside. and they had the creepy voice from the national weather service playing on the radio. and the sirens were going. then it started shaking. and then it was over. anyway, i usually freak out if it gets stormy. so we'll see how this goes...

there is no "i" in team

a team to me is a group of people that are positive and give encouragement to each other. they may have their differences, but they get over them and help each other out. its a group of people who have a common goal. whether it's winning, or just having fun. but usually it's winning. and if they lose, they figure out what they did wrong and learn from their mistakes. a group of people who arent a real team will tend to blame the loss or mistake on one specific person and make them feel left out or rejected. and that's not okay.

lion

yesterday was the show choir competition. it was a really long day. but there were some amazing choirs there. they probably all had huge budgets cuz they had a bunch of costumes and props. and we have a tiny budget. and all the other schools had a TON of school spirit with cheers and chants. it was very obvious that we have no school spirit at all. there was a girl from another school who walked by the tiger downstairs and said "oooo...look! its a lion!"

reputation

reputation can be untrue. someone could pretend to be nice for a little while to a very talkative person and get a reputation of niceness. but they could be evil the rest of the time. there are a lot of reputations out there and i think its easy to get one. but most of them probably arent true.

nothing

i once again have nothing to blog about. i've had a very boring week cuz im not in any spring activities.
today i had a splitting headache. but i took some ibprophen so now im better.
i really have nothing to blog about. seriously. nothing.

springtime

this week has felt like spring. when i woke up this morning i heard thunder for the first time in 5ish months. and i realized i kinda missed it. so today everything was wet from the rain and there was extra mud. i had a lot of fun splashing through the puddles and making squelching noises in the mud. and it really smelled like spring. i cant describe the smell, but i think everyone knows what i'm talking about.

it feels good to be able to walk outside without a coat or shoes.

frosting

cupcakes. yesterday i watched dc cupcakes on tv. and it made me want to own my own cupcake store/shop/bakery. they had really random flavors and interesting frostings with toppings. the frosting looked like the perfect consistency and i wish tv could transport the things on the shows. it would be so nice. and on that episode they baked 10,000 cupcakes to send to troops in iraq. and i wish i had the power to make an impact like that. but maybe i will. someday.
