ICBI !!!



I can't believe it...
It snowed last night!!!
SNOWED!!!!!! XD. Luckily most of it is melting, but now it's extra chilly outside and there's water everywhere!
Mother Nature, what the heck are you doing????!!!!!

I am so mad right now. So mad.




Heh-Heh ;)

Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit the family ranch.
 Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in financial trouble.. 
 
 
 
In order to keep the bank from
repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull so that they can breed their own stock.

Upon leaving, the brunette tells her
sister, 'When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll contact you to drive out after me and haul it home.'

The brunette arrives at the man's
ranch, inspects the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. 
 
 
 
The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less. 
 
 
 
After paying him, she drives to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news. 
 
 
 
She walks into the telegraph office, and says, 'I want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I've bought a bull for our ranch. 
 
 
 
I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so we can haul it home.'

The telegraph operator explains that
he'll be glad to help her, then adds, it will cost 99 cents a word. 
 
 
 
Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette realizes that she'll only be able to send her sister one word.

After a few minutes of thinking, she
nods and says, 'I want you to send her the word 'comfortable.'

The operator shakes his head. 'How
is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her just the word 'comfortable?'

The brunette explains, 'My sister's
blonde. The word is big. 
 
 
 
She'll read it very slowly...
'com-for-da-bul.'

Sunshine?

The sun is out. Not a cloud in the sky.
AND IT'S STILL COLD OUTSIDE!!!
How could the weather be freezing when the sun is pouring down its rays and there aren't any clouds?

I looked out my window today and thought "Awesome! A nice and sunny, warm Spring day! I'm totally going for a walk!"
I put on my shoes in a hurry, walk downstairs with excitement, open the door, and WHAM! An icy cold wind hits my face and I gasp desperately for breath!
Of course I still went outside...didn't want to be a party-pooper...but I had to get my winter coat and a hat on! Come on, Mother Nature, I'm done with Winter! Bring on the warmth of Spring!
XD

Finished 2

I finished reading books 1 and 2 of the series "Ranger's Apprentice". They were AWESOME!!!
I can't wait to borrow number 3 from the library!
There were a couple things in the book I didn't like though>>>

1.) Wargals ....Orks......is there a difference? I thought that was totally cheesy.

2.) Cloaks that camouflage and make you practically invisible? (Lord of the Rings = Elfin cloaks. Du!)

It's the same with the "Eragon" series...
It seems like in most of the fantasy books I read...they all copy each other! (Although they mainly seem to compare with "Lord of the Rings" in a ton of stuff. I mean...in the first "Eragon" book there were giant snake-like creatures that flew and made high pitched screeching sounds. Seriously?! COME ON PEOPLE!
And there were things dressed in black robes that rode them around......SO corny.)


What is your opinion?



"Debb's"

I have always wanted to try on one of these (strapless) dresses!
(This one was actually a little big for me...hopefully you can't tell...I had to "puff out" a bit so it wouldn't slide down...heh-heh ;)
Anyway, here's a pic of me and one of my friends (Edel C.) at the Mall ("Debb's") in our awesome dresses XD

(Please comment and tell me what you think ~ )



My other friend's (Charlee M.) beautiful gown :)>>>
Stunning!

RipSticky :)

Do you know what a RipSticky is? (Ok, It's actually called RipSTICK....I just though "Sticky" sounded cuter ;)

It's kinda like a skateboard, except it only has two wheels and you don't need to push with your feet. You just Swivel.
(I know what your thinking..... "Whaaaat????")
"sigh". Ya know what. Just look at the picture.>>> (My little sister got one that looks exactly like this)







They are sooooooooo awesome! I'm becoming quite good at it....if I do say so myself. And I do ;)

Skinnies, BootCut or Flare?

I'm in need of new clothes.
I've grown quite a bit since last year (in more ways than one...hehe.) and I'm hoping to go to shopping before Spring gets here.

But, I have a problem. What type of jeans should I get???!! I can never find any Skinnies that fit me, but I don't like too much flare on the bottom of my pants. (Makes me feel baggy) And I absolutely HATE Straight-legged jeans on me. BLA. XD
So, I'm asking your opinion...


Should I: >>>>


a) Shop in the guys department for Skinnies so they aren't too tight on me

b) Just get BootCut instead

c) Go for the Flare and cuff them up


The good thing is, even if I can't find any jeans that I like...I don't really NEED them till' next Fall. I could survive with just shorts and caprees if I had to.
Let me know what you think. * * *

Wet and Loud

We've been getting rain every day for almost 3 days now.
And thunder to the extreme. Last night the Thunder was so sudden and loud it woke me up at 1am. (And I'm a very sound sleeper....).
It scared me 3/4's of the way to death and I literally felt like throwing one of my shoes at the sky and telling it to shut up. Hehe. ;)
(But of course.....Obviously, with my luck, I couldn't find my shoe in the dark so I just ended up burying my tired body under pillows and blankets and hating myself for not being able to do anything about the racket outside.)

It's still raining.
Wet, cold and loud outside.
I usually enjoy rainy weather but this is a little too much for me.
I couldn't sleep last night either and now I have rings under my eyes! Thanks a lot, thunder! UG!!! XD

Passion


Next Sunday, our parish's Youth Group is going to begin practicing for our annual "Passion Play" (the Passion of Christ).
Our church does it every year during Lent on the Wednesday before Good Friday. (I'll post pics of a practice or two and maybe ask my mom to take some of the play if I can remember :)

Last year was AWESOME! I loved taking part in the activity!* * *
(I was Veronica as well as one of the weeping women).

I especially have fun with the practices because:
>>>>>>>>>>>

a) I get to hang out and have fun with some of my best friends

b) It helps me meditate on Jesus' suffering and cross.

c) I love acting <3

And plus, we all get to go to Pizza Hut after the Play...how amazing is that!!!??? XD
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox



ICW Till' next Sunday!!!
