Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer!
He's a demon on wheels.
He's a demon and he's gonna be chasin' after someone.

He's gainin' on ya so you better look alive.
He's busy revvin' up the powerful MACH 5!

And when the odds are against him and theres dangerous work to do.
You bet your life Speed Racer, will come to see it through

Go Speed Racer !
Go Speed Racer!
Go Speed Racer, go!

He's off and flyin' as he guns the car around the track,
He's jammin' down the pedal like he's never comin' back.

Adventure's waiting just ahead!

Go Speed Racer !
Go Speed Racer!
Go Speed Racer, go!


I'm testing if this is a good method to get a song out of your head. There are alot of exclamation points. Goodnight.

So my day can't entirely be considered interesting. Besides reading Beaver and Steve almost all day, I didn't do much. I did go to Tom Isaacson's law office and learned a bit about how patent law works. Also I saw Lyndsey. I was thinking about how funny it was that Lyndsey Patten works in a Patent law office. Patent--Patten.

Get it?

Besides that and getting 178 points on Break Out. I got nothing.

I was trying to find a copy of the 1966 copy of the Strength of Youth pamphlet ever since I heard John Bytheway talk about it. All I found were these. Not an actual copy or any pictures.
I'm sure you've probably heard some of these from him anyway.

"Members of the church should be good dancers and not contortionists… Emphasis should be placed on smooth styling and clever footwork."

Yeah, I definitely had to look the word"contortionists" up. Basically they're saying if you're gonna dance, dance well. Otherwise it's a sin.

"A 'real lady' does not go out in public, to the market, or to the shops with her hair in curlers."

It's like... going out in public with a flat iron."

"Girls should dress to enhance their natural beauty and femininity. Clothes should be comfortable and attractive without calling attention to a person’s body…few girls or women ever look well in backless or strapless dresses. Such styles often make the figure look ungainly and large, or they show the bony structures of the body."

Basically, I look fat in strapless backless dresses. And my basketball shorts are out of the question.

"Any apparel that suggests a house robe should not be worn in public but only in one’s home or apartment."

Now I wish I had an outfit that looks like a house robe.

I definitely got 129 points on Break Out. Look it up. Look up "Break Out, Atari" It's the best game in the world. The second best game in the world is Missile Command.

In case you were wondering, "Hola Mis Compinches de bowling" means "Hello my bowling buddies". Or more accurately translated "Hello my buddies of bowling"

Maren just started singing "Keep your hands at the level of your eyes" from Phantom of the Opera. It's actually really funny.

I recently discovered, that I'm good at math. Namely, Algebra. I'm not looking forward to Geometry. Geometry is for crazy smart people. I'm just smart people.

So I wish I was one of those people who want like nothing for Christmas. Too bad I'm not. I want a lot of posters for my room. I also want Harvest Moon for the Gameboy SP(I'm the best at that game on Nintendo 64)Lame I know. I also wish with all my heart I had a working Sega Genesis. They're alot cheaper than I thought. I wonder if we still have all those games.

I'm gonna go beat my score on Break Out.

Hola mis compinches de bowling!

Today, I woke up wet.

The one day we decide to sleep outside, it rains. The one night we decide to use one of the crappiest tents we own, it rains. I was fine. It was just weird to wake up with everything except where you were laying is wet.

I also had a dream where I went trick-or-treating and knocked on this pizza places door. The guy chose like ten of his favorite costumes(I got fourth) and the kids wearing them would compete in this swimming race for a grand prize which my mind did not allow me to know to avoid my own disappointment. I started on the very end, and basically owned these kids. The main object of the race was to swim out and grab three blue balls and swim back. I grabbed 2 balls, and couldn't find the other. Then this other kid from my ward had 2 balls and said It'd be better for at least one of use to win and gave one of his. then I swam back and woke up. That was a weird dream, mostly cause I don't really know the kid very well. I found his retainer once but that's about it. I decided whether or not I thought you'd want to know I'd tell you anyway.

Well today after Spanish, we all went bowling. We all being a lot of the youth and Maren - Isaac.
Mostly cause we didn't have a chance to take them home. I scored I think 56 points the first game and 89 points the second. I won the second BTW. That was pretty fun. However, Avrom's competitive spirit and left-handedness mad it difficult to teach. I still enjoyed it.

My finger nails glow in the dark. That is basically the only reason I still have the nail-polish on. I almost always pick it off before I get to show it off. I love glow in the dark anything.

Kender-Bender wants his computer back. Goodnight!

Watch out boy she'll chew you up!

You know what's relatively amusing, but more annoying than anything?

Kiddie drama.

This girl, Abigail, equals trouble. She's funny, nice to hang out with, but quite the man eater.
When we first met her, she and Ezra got crushes on each other. Then later, Abbey decides she doesn't like Ezra. Not because he did anything particularly wrong, but because she can not like him whenever she wants. Now she likes Avrom. Also she "hates" Ezra, while secretly(not any more) liking the both of them. Keep in mind that both of the boys like her. Well she says she likes Avrom because he's a gentleman. However, when Ezra tries to be a gentleman she won't accept it. For instance: Ezra tries to give her a potato(at dinner, not just a random potato) and he's holding it with his bare hands, and it's hot. She backs away and makes this disgusting grimacing face until Avrom give her potato on a plate. While Avrom was a little smarter in this sense, he wasn't in any physical pain. So while Ezra burns his own flesh for her she backs away grimacing. If he was actually burning his flesh purposefully I can see why she would be grossed out. Anyway, it's a little weird. I've never seen Avrom and Ezra go this far out of the way for a girl.

Well now me and Emma and Hannah are going to sleep in a tent on the porch. For the heck of it. Hannah said it was below 30 degrees. This is not true, she's just a whiner-face.

Also, Isaac's being a dumb-head. But hat's a different story.


I'm gonna go sleep in "below 30" degree weather. Night!

Yesterday, I went to Cici's. A pizza buffet, that I happen to love. I just thought everyone with the time, and interest to read this should know that the cinnamon rolls = delicious.
Also yesterday, I saw "You Can't Take it With You". Northern High School did it. Ariane was in it. It was pretty super duper, and she was a-freaking-dorable. Also that's one of my words. She played Essie, the girl who makes candy and dances around all day.
I've decided that whenever I don't have an answer I say "I just like grapes, okay!" and walk away. But normally I find myself coming back to either see what their reaction was, or because I was actually interested in the conversation we were having.
I'm pretty sure in every lifetime, there is at least one domesticated ROUS.*
Usually disguised as a cat or dog. I met mine today. It was supposedly a dog. But it's tail is what gave it away. It looked like a pigs tail uncurled with a flat iron. It couldn't walk or run, as the ROUS wasn't really used to its costume. It could only waddle. I don't mean the adorable little waddle you saw in march of the penguins. It was quite the waddle. When it lifted its leg the leg stuck straight out the side. Sort of like a canon sticking out the side of a
large vessel. So imagine if you can, the little legs flipping out one by one as fast as the little "dog" could muster.

I'm thinkin' I'm gonna give my brother the computer so, adios.
