YAY

I adopted a rat today!!!! His name is Mochi and he's really sweet. I love him!
But a bad thing thats happening is that the snow is melting... Everytime I look out the window I get all depressed... Just a couple days ago there was tons!!!

It's still snowing!

There's about a half a foot at least! Snow is covering everything!!!

This is one of my favorite scenes from My Neighbor Totoro!

my little miniclip person

The Dark Knight Scenes...!!!

two of my favorite scenes from the dark knight...

Ha...

I love Charlie the Unicorn


Oh, when you're down and looking for some cheering up,
Then just head right on up to the candy mountain cave.
When you get inside you'll find yourself a cheery land,
Such a happy and joyful and perky merryland.
They've got lollypops and gummy drop and candy things,
Oh so many things that will brighten up your day.
It's impossible to wear a frown in Candy Town,
It's the mecca of love the candy cave.

They've got jelly beans, and coconuts with little hats,
Candy rats, choco bats, it's a wonderland of sweets.
Ride the candy train to town and hear the candy band,
Candy bells, it's a treat as they march across the land.
Cheery ribbons stream across the sky into the ground,
Turn around, it astounds, it's the dancing candy tree.
In the candy cave imagination runs so free,
So now Charlie please will you go into the cave.

Mini Classes...again

Today I made three 4 pieces of art and here is one of them.

A Christmas Story for people having a bad day

A Christmas Story for people having a bad day:

When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure.

Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.

Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.

Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree. The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?'

And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.

School

The schools werent closed today on my side of the city. But I'm kinda glad because this week we have mini classes on Tuesday and Thursday. I picked acrylics and today I made a painting that took me four hours. I hope theres no school tomorrow because that would just be a normal day and my teacher would give us more homework...

It doesnt look as good scaned...

My deviantART: http://hammy4474.deviantart.com/

the art on it isnt that good but there is the link anyway...

SNOWNESS.

Today was kind of interesting... My friend came over and we made a really lame youtube video. I think I might be getting sick but i'm not telling me mom. I'm not sure why but I'm just not gonna tell her right now. It is sooo cold outside with all the snow and then theres the wind. ...yep...the wind. Its sooo strong! My bedroom is right next to the side of the house and i can hear all of the tings being moved around by the wind. Its so loud that it sounds like the house is gonna get ripped off the ground like in the Wizard of Oz.

Alot of things...

First of all IT SNOWED TODAY!!!! YAY!!!! AND THERES NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!!!!

and we watched wall-e! its was awesome! i love the short that comes before it called presto....



i've also been playing paper mario alot lately... very addicting game =]

then i found this christmas letter that was written to us this year and it reminded me about this little boy we used to know who died when he was 7 years old... i was only three. he's been dead for 11 years... i think it was cancer. he had such a short life...

on a happier note winter break it coming soon!!!!! and if this snow keeps up we might have an extra week!!!!!

well thats kind of it for now...

Minami-Ke

I've been very bored today but me and my mom did do a bit of Christmas shopping... I guess it was sorta fun... Any way i've been watching this anime called Minami-Ke which is about three sisters who live together. Its a bit like Lucky Star but in my opinion, not as good. But I did like it. And I just finished it. But then theres this other one called Minami-ke Okawari (2nd season) and they completely changed the animation style. It basically ruined it... Sorry if i'm boring ppl with all of this pointless tlking, but I have nothing else to do...

1st Season:



2nd Season (messed up version):

となりのトトロ

I havent been doing much lately but school has been kinda crazy... And I love the movie My Neighbor Totoro!!!! hehe

Winter Song Video

SO CUTE!!!
Winter Song

You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)

BEAUTIFUL SONG!

Winter Song

More Music/Back at School

So I've been back at school for almost a week. I got 104% on my math test!!!! YAY!!! But we have to sing a song in spanish class next week... I'm not very excited about that. Tomorrow at school there is going to be a craft bazaar. And I'm going to be serving tea...yep.

Today I got a rubix cube and I know the basic way to solve it but I cant actually do it...hehe.

Hi

So thanksgiving break is over... =[ School felt weird today but everything felt normal again pretty quickly. I'm just listening to music right now and have nothing else to do. I should be going to sleep right now but I just cant! I just had a bowl of rice and I think it kinda woke me up which is not good... I think our winter break is coming soon... Can't wait!

Tropic Thunder!

This is one of the best movies ever! It's really funny and I highly recommend it!

Nothing to report...

I say, when ur bored, google stuff!

Going Home...

I'm at the Oakland airport right now... Our flight back to Portland leaves at 5:40 and right now its only 4:20... I think its really sad how all of these stores opened up at 3 in the morning. Its stupid! Getting up at 3 in the morning to shop is dumb! And my mom tells me that this morning ppl were so anxious to get into Walmart, that an employee was trampled to death! What the h*ll?! I feel bad for that person's family. Wouldnt it be horrible to find out that a family member was killed because ppl wanted to go shopping at 3 in the morning?! Its only the day after Thanksgiving!!!! Christmas isn't for a month! I went to the mall with my friend about two weeks ago and they were playing Christmas music. I could go on and on about this early holiday stuff but I wont.
Its been 12 minutes since I started writing. It took me a long time just to write that paragraph. I'm sitting here right now with my bid Domo dude. Jordan's sitting across from me and my dad's sitting next to me. I think our plane just pulled up outside... Not sure... I think its actually too early.
Oh when I first go here, I opened up my suitcase and I found a notice for bag inspection! It kind of felt like an invasion of privacy... But I guess my bag did look kind of suspicious. It was really heavy.
I started reading a book last night called Feed. I forget who wrote it but its pretty good so far.
I threw up last night. But I was suprised that I didnt upchuck any food. Cause I had eaten alot for Thanksgiving. I woke up this morning feeling fine so it wasnt anything serious.
i should probably stop now cause I dont know when we will have to leave.

San Francisco (Day #3)

Went to Pacifica. I use to go to school there. Went to the beach.

Walked around the city for a while. Nothin' else to report.

My Day (San Francisco Day # 2)

Today we went to Japan town(of course). It was pretty awesome and I went home with a giant Domo-kun!
We also saw Twilight. And I'm kinda mad at myself for it because I kept telling myself I wouldnt watch it! But I did. And I must admit its a pretty good movie. But the whole time i was sitting in the theater, I kept thinking of what I had pictured in my head while reading the first part of the book. I dont want the movie to ruin what I had imagined. I have only read the first few chapters of Twilight but I think I will finaly read the rest,

Best Song Ever (again)

So I already posted this song once before. But that was a video and it wasnt even the whole thing! Here it is...

Yay!

I know I've said it twice already but today I'm going to Japan Center! YaY!

But yesturday when we were at the museum, we were looking at a rattle snake in the global warming exhibit. There was info talking about how the snake would go extinct if global warming continues to destroy its home. I heard an old lady behind me say, "It wouldnt be that bad if they went extinct" I was shocked. How can you say that about a living creature?! What if humans were gonna go extinct huh?! What would you say then? I know i'm kinda overreacting but I think all animals should be equal.

San Francisco

So I have been here for a day and a half and I've had fun so far,... But there is one problem. Everytime I stay at my aunt and grandma's house, I get all sneezy and clogged. It's been like this since I was born. And they've tried everything! They've vacumed and dusted and they even got rid of there carpeting and replaced it with hard wood flooring. It kind of makes me feel bad...

Any way I'm all sniffly. Yesturday we went to Fisherman's Wharf to get crab for Thanksgiving. Today we went to the new science museum. It was packed!

Tomorrow we're going to Japan Center!!!! I'm so happy.

My Chemical Romance

So... I've been listening to them alot lately... these r my favorites...

AMV

I made this video a while ago just because I felt like it... It finaly reached 2,000 views so I guess some people like it...
The anime is called Kanon and is one of the best ever! The song is called Little Wonders by Rob Thomas.

Saw...

The Dark Knight again today! And now I like it even more!

Tomorrow im going to California... But I am happy that I get to go to Japan Center!

Today

So i am gonna go with my dad to help an organization called Loaves and Fishes... http://www.loavesandfishesonline.org/

And here is the most beautiful song in da world! This version is a bit shorter but its still good... River Flows In You by Yiruma

Red

Yep... I found this somewhere on Google... I was bored...

And now for a lame joke...

Two muffins are sittng next to each other in an oven. One muffin turns to the other and says
"Hey! How ya doin?"
The other one goes, "AHHHH! A TALKING MUFFIN!!!!"

A Cup of Tea (Words of Wisdom)

The Vietnamese Buddist monk and philosopher, Thich Nhat Hanh, writes about enjoying a good cup of tea... You must be completely awake in the present to enjoy the tea. Only in the awareness of the present can your hands feel the pleasant warmth of the cup.
Only in the present can you savor the aroma, taste the sweetness, and appreciate the delicacy. If you are ruminating about the past or worrying about the future, you will completely miss the experience of enjoying the cup of tea. You will look down at the cup and the tea will be gone.

Life is like that. If you are not fully in the present, you will look around and it will be gone. You will have missed the feel, the aroma, the delicacy and the beauty of life. It will seem to be speeding past you. The past is finished. Learn from it and let it go. The future is not even here yet. Plan for it, but do not waste your time worrying about it. Worrying is worthless. When you stop ruminating about what has already happened, when you stop worrying about what might never happen, thewn you will be in the present moment. Then you will begin to experience joy in life.

Random Autobiography

so at the begining of the year our first writting assignment was to write a poem about ourselves... this is what i wrote...

Random Autobiography
By Maren Stoeber
9-14-08

When I was 4
I went into surgery
Appendicitis
I can still remember the pain

I have ridden a horse
Up a big mountain
Over slippery mud and rocks

I have been boating on Lake Oswego
Speeding through the water
The wind in my hair

I have adopted two kittens
Small in my hands
Still new to the world

I have been to the Oregon Caves
Marveling at the beautiful sights
While freezing cold water
Soaked through my shoes

I have been berry picking
Eating most of them
Almost none made it into the bucket

I've come home
To find a dog in the living room
Small, white and fluffy
"His name is Happy"
Dad told me

I have laughed with my friends
So hard that
It hurt to breath afterwards

I have jumped off a high up rock
A shock went through my body
As I fell into the cold river below

I have been in the world
For 14 years

The Dark Knight

so... i saw the dark knight with my friend jessie last sunday... its a pretty good movie and its not nearly as bloody or gory as i thought it would be... and the jokers pretty cool! everybody probably knows that this film is about batman. i had never seen any kind of super hero movie before this except for the incredibles (which really doesnt count!). if you havent seen it i think you should! =]

grrrr

i do not like this week one bit! not at all! but its only tuesday and that makes me even more unhappy! nothing else to report...

AHHH!!!!

I have so much homework!!!!! NOOOOO!!!! I have to write three reflections for service, a letter for a rural exchange, make a graph, read a book, do my math, and UGH!!!! yep...

...

i found this really sad video on youtube...

Jack Schitt

hahaha

For some time many of us have wondered just who is Jack Schitt?
We find ourselves at a loss when someone says, 'You don't know Jack Schitt!'
Well, thanks to my friends generous genealogy efforts, you can now respond in an intellectual way.

Jack Schitt
Is the only son of Awe Schitt.
Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate,
married O. Schitt, the owner of Needeep N. Schitt, Inc. They had one son, Jack.

In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt.
The deeply religious couple produced six children: Holie Schitt, Giva Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins Deep Schitt and Dip
Schitt..
Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb
Schitt, a high school dropout.


After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Ted Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them, she wanted to keep her previous name. She was then known as Noe Schitt Sherlock.

Meanwhile, Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt, and they produced a son with a rather nervous disposition named Chicken Schitt.

Two of the ot her six children, Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony.
The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced
the Schitt-Happens nuptials.

The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Horse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new Italian bride, Pisa Schitt.

Now when someone says, 'Y ou don't know Jack Schitt,' you can correct them.

Sincerely,
Crock O.

Schitt
