50 Facts About Me.
Oh hey. So I'm at work.
Just chilling. My internet won't work so I'm just typing this up now and I'll
post it l8er. It's 12:21. we've had one customer so far. This police officer has
been staring at me for a good 20 minutes now. So that's fun. I decided to write
a blog about myself. So I am feeling 50 facts about me. Cause who wouldn't want
that? So here goes.
1. I hate McDonalds. I haven't eaten there in 5 years, except for the occasional smoothie.
2. I have a weird obsession with school supplies. They're my weakness, and although I usually hate shopping, I could spend hours shopping for school supplies.
3. I've been in love with the same boy for 5 years. He doesn't feel the same. But I don't plan on giving up anytime soon.
4. I love bananas, but I hate anything banana flavored.
5. I absolutely hate when you have known a singer or a song for a long time, just you, and then it gets popular and everyone loves it. Because then it's not just yours anymore and it's just really annoying.
6. I almost always wear a pair of shorts under whatever I am wearing. Whether the result is two pairs of shorts, or jeans with shorts underneath, I rock it.
7. Kids love me, and I do not feel the same. At all.
8. When I was little, all I wanted to be was a drive thru girl at McDonald's. Now I want to be an ultrasound tech, and I also think a private investigator or a detective would be awesome.

10. My favorite subject is math, which is ironic because that is my worst subject in school.
11. I'm outgoing 95% of the time, but I do have days where I'm just really shy.

14. I hate romance novels and stupid books about boring stuff. I like murder mystery books and scary books and books about crimes. No I'm not some creepy death freak. That stuff just intregues me and that's how I roll. Deal with it. Same with movies. I hate chick flicks and romantic movies. Horror films or boring films is my categorization of movies.
15. As soon as I start to like a baseball player, they start doing terribly and eventually disappear. Example. Paul Wilson. Jeff Conine. Corey Patterson. Tom Shearn. Chris Dickerson. Paul Janish. I currently like Devin Mesoraco and Mat Latos, so don't expect them to be around much longer.
16. I don't care what other people say about the Nati, I love it and I want to live here all my life.
17. Unless it is a close friend, I am able to talk to strangers better than people I know.
18. I once signed up for an audition for Disney Channel. We went camping that day and forgot all about it.

23. I pretty much either hate people or like people. There's not an in between or a "just okay" for me.
24. I haven't eaten pork in six years. Pigs are my favorite animal, and I feel very strongly against eating them. Same with fish, fish are cute little innocent dudes trying to chill in the water and I don't feel right eating them. I hate turkeys and chickens, so it is okay to eat them. I've tried to not eat beef but it's a struggle. Sorry cowz.
25. I am a cougar through and through. Younger boys are where it's at.
26. When I was in 8th grade I left church after communion with some friends. One of the priests who wasn't giving the mass was in the back, and he yelled at us and told us it wasn't fair to Jesus and made us go back in.

You're never gonna be broke or homeless. And obvi you're happy with your life, you're rich and famous. I'm not saying money and fame is everything. I'm just saying they shouldn't sing about things that they can't even relate to.
34. I live for street parties. I literally love all of my neighbors and we are like a lil family. I look forward to street parties all year. I had to miss last years. Never again.
35. Gradeschool was the best 9 years of my life. As crappy as the school was, I made some wonderful friendships there that I will cherish always.
36. I had never played basketball until 8th grade. I ended up liking it, so I tried out for high-school the next year. I technically made the team, mostly because they didn't cut anyone. But then I quit.

Korea Finale. Aww.
Woke up early. Previously mentioned future mother in law came to tale us to a water park. When I went down to the car, I saw mother in law and unknown Asian boy outside the car. Then, everything seemed to go in slow motion like a movie. Car door opens. I see a foot. Another foot. And then, right before my eyes appeared something beautiful. Something wonderful. David. Is this real life? He's back! He's back! Lil' Davey Boy! I love you! And the unknown Asian is his cousin from China. So overall, great life. So we are getting in the car, and cousin gets in the back seat. And Jack says, I get to sit in the back! We were both under the assumption that Dave was going to sit by his cousin in the back. (PS I just stopped blogging to go creep on David on fb. I miss him.) So I was upset. But then David tells Curt and Jack to get in the back. Do you know what that means? Me. David. Next to each other! Yayyyyyyyyyyy! Life is good. So David was sitting in the middle seat and I was on the side. After about 20 minutes, Davey fell asleep. But it was more than that. Davey. Leaning against me. His head. My shoulder. My heart. Beating fast. Our love. Growing stronger. We kept hitting red lights and traffic. I was sooooo happy for that. More bonding time. So we got to the water park. And our ex-exchange student's dad, the co-CEO of Samsung, wrote us a letter. Because the water park is owned by Samsung. So whenever we wanted something and to get in and stuff we just show them the letter. We've got connections. I had to go into the women's locker room alone. It was intimidating. I couldn't get my locker open so this lady had to help. It was embarr. Then it was time to say goodbye to David. We got pix and dad got one of me, Dave, and cousin. Soooo awk yet sooo great. Then Davey said goodbye. And my life ended. It was such a hard loss. But I pushed through it. They had an awesome wave pool and sweet slides. Plus what's better than cute Asians with abs? Pretty much nothing. So just an update. Four hours and 15 minutes until we land in DC. Man I just wanna be home. We are over Canada right now. It's sweet. And it was cool cause we changed time zones and so it was pitch black for like an hour but then it got bright out of nowhere. Alright where was I? We left the waterpark but Davey didn't come with. So we went back and ate dinner. It was delish. I went to bed early while everyone else went to the store. When I woke up, Curt was sleeping next to me, sleeptalking in Korean and using me as a pillow. Also sleeptalking in Korean was one of the girls we were staying with, who I guess decided to sleep in our room that night. She was sleeping on top of me. It was kinda rough. But that's okay, cause she's cute.
In the morning we went straight to the bus stop. The bus took us straight to the airport. Nothing really exciting happened there. Except I got a mouse shaped donut. That was fun. We got on the first flight after going through two security checks to Japan. The flight was about two hours and the airplane got smart and we all have individual tv's and can watch whatever we want. John Carter was an option. I declined. I watched Anchorman. Then in Japan we had to go through another security. It took forever. Our plane boarded at 3:05 but we didn't get to it until 3:45. Rough life. So this plane has been pretty boring. I'm just really wanting to be home. Three hours and 49 minutes until DC. Ugh. So far I have watched The Descendents, What's Your Number, Slumdog Millionare, The Vow, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, The Office, Criminal Minds, and now I've hit rock bottom with A.N.T Farm. Loving it. I'm not evern ashamed. It's a great show. Imma go now. Stay tuned for more.
After A.N.T Farm, I hit up Austin and Ally. Mostly because I am in love with Austin. Then I watched the Devil Wears Prada. Classic. I forgot to tell you about Classy. This Classsy boy in a striped sweater who we first saw in a Korea, followed us to Japan, then to DC. It was kinda like a plaid situation. I lost Classy at customs, just like Plaid. And then we had to go through more security. Like, do they really think we got something illegal since the last flight? No. Oh well. More security. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here, feeling like I am gonna puke, staring at a cute boy across from me. He's reading a longboarding magazine. I guess he likes to longboard. Our flight is delayed 35 minutes. But those 35 minutes are aalmost up and our plane isn't here yet. I'm just glad this happened in DC rather than Korea or Japan. Could have been rough. Oh hey! New cute boy sitting across from me. Striped shirt. Black hair. Talking to a large African man. OMG I just went to the bathroom and found Classy on the way! Date me! But he took off his sweater so he's not as cute. But still great. It's 5:08, still no plane. Oh well. Plane is here! Yay! Let's board!
And that's all I got for you folks. I hope you enjoyed my trip to Korea, cause I know I did. Thanks for reading and stay fresh!

Korea Part 3.
Woke up Sunday morning. Walked to the grocery store. It was sweet. It had two floors. I was impressed. Plus I got some much needed razors. Then we went back to the house and watched Fairly Odd Parents, Korean style. It was the movie where they go to all the different channels. It was nice. Then I played some Webkinz. It was fun. Then the family of our exchange student we had about eight years ago came and took us to lunch. The dad is the Co-CEO of Samsung. No big. He drives a Porsche. It was sweet. So we get to this place for lunch and it's this really elite place. And at this point it's about 3:00. So we eat all this food and in Korea it's rude to not eat everything they give you. So I'm about to throw up from eating so much. The mom just keeps throwing food on my plate and telling me to eat. And finally all the food is gone. Thank the Lord. And then I'm like okay, let's go. And guess what mom says. "Time for the second course!" Uhhhhhhhh what? I almost just broke down and started crying. So I had to eat that. Then when I was done, I was praying to God there wasn't a third course. There wasn't. So then we went shopping and they bought us everything. It was splendid. They also bought me a nightgown. Not surprisingly, I rock it. So then they take us to the Seoul Tower. It's basically just a tower on a mountain that overlooks the city. It was sweet. After that it was about 7pm. Just a reminder that I had eaten enough that afternoon to last me a week. And at seven they were like, where do you want to go to dinner? Um. Where? Nowhere. Ever again. They were shocked that we weren't hungry. But they took us home. Fortunately.
Monday proved to be the first day of the my life. So you know the exchange student I previously mentioned? He is engaged to a girl named Haeley. Haeley's mom wanted to take us out for the day. She doesn't speak any English, so we had to have a translator with us all day. My dad joked that it would be a cute and young Asian boy. He wasn't joking. Helllllllllllllllllllo. Everything about this boy is perfect. His name is David. He is Korean, but grew up in Brazil where his parents are missionaries in the Amazon. He is 18 but is a sophomore in college because he is so smart. He is majoring in linguistics. He speaks Portuguese, English, Korean, Spanish, and German. He has one older sister who goes to school in Oklahoma. He is allergic to cucumber. He is my soulmate. And as fate would have it we got to sit next to each other in the car. Let's just say I never wanted the car ride to end. But it did. We went to a traditional Korean Folk Village. Solid stuff. Boring, but solid. Then we got back in the car (yay), and drove to get lunch. More stuffing my face and eating until I'm about to puke, yay! Then we got back in the car and I fell asleep. When I woke up I was leaning against lover.You think I would ruin that? No. I "went back to sleep" so I could lean on him some more. Eventually though, I decided to get up. Like five minutes after I did, he said good bye and jumped out of the car. Dave! What? No! Dave come back! Dave was gone for good and I was crushed.
We continued on to our destination, while I held back tears. Lil' Davey, I miss you. The lady we were staying with is an English teacher and we were going to her school. First we went to on of her classes and they asked us questions. There was an albino girl. It was sweet. One girl told my dad he looked like Hugh Grant. So after school ended a class had a party planned for us. I got to meet my penpal so that was cool. They did some dancing for us and I was impressed. Then they asked us questions and we asked them questions. We played some games and made some food. One of the girls told me to play my favorite music. So I turned on Cody. Naturally. It was great. But then Bruno Mars came on and I wanted to puke. So then we got pictures and said our goodbyes. It was sad. We took the train home and it took forever. But we made it. Woke up early Tuesday morning after hearing blood curling screams in the dark. Sounds good. So after crying about David a little (not really, lawlz), I went back to sleep. Woke up and Curt and Dad had another appointment to meet with Curtis' foster mom and look at his file. Meanwhile, the rest of were stuck back at the house, being forced to stuff our faces by grandma. She made us eat this nasty stuff. It was cut into squares and had the same consistancy of jello. It was gray and tasted like death. I was literally 30 seconds away from throwing up and I'm not even kidding. So after eating enough food to feed a small village, dad and Curt got back. We decided to go to some war memorial. Aka, something I wouldn't be interested in in a million years. Yay. So then we got on the wrong train and decided to alter our plans and go to a palace. On the way we stopped at pizza hut for some much needed American food. The Pizza Hut was actually nice. It was weird. And it tasted so good. Then we walked like 478 miles to the palace. Jack and I were talking in jibberish to mess with people's minds. We decided that if anyone asked we would tell them we were from Poland. So, just our luck the palace was closed. Thanks world. So this lady asked us to take her picture. She's an "NAA." Our code for Non-Asian Alert. We ask her where she's from. We want to tell her we are from Poland. But, surprise! She is from Poland! So the plan is crumbled. We decide to go to a market from there. Plan C I guess it was. On the way, dad accidentally stepped on my toes. Hello cracked toenails. Hello blood. Hello fun. So we walk to the market. Closed. Plan D time. Found a stream. At this point the boys are having fun with the fish in the stream while I have a headache and feel like I am going to throw up. So I am injuring myself a lot. So we played in this stream for a while then we got in the mood for ice cream. So we looked everywhere for some. Finally we asked someone where we could find some. The guy went completely out of his way and walked us to where ice cream was. Very nice fellow. We found a Baskin Robbins. It had two floors. I got mint chocolate chip. Delish. We then got back on the train and headed home. Went to bed. Stay fresh.
Monday proved to be the first day of the my life. So you know the exchange student I previously mentioned? He is engaged to a girl named Haeley. Haeley's mom wanted to take us out for the day. She doesn't speak any English, so we had to have a translator with us all day. My dad joked that it would be a cute and young Asian boy. He wasn't joking. Helllllllllllllllllllo. Everything about this boy is perfect. His name is David. He is Korean, but grew up in Brazil where his parents are missionaries in the Amazon. He is 18 but is a sophomore in college because he is so smart. He is majoring in linguistics. He speaks Portuguese, English, Korean, Spanish, and German. He has one older sister who goes to school in Oklahoma. He is allergic to cucumber. He is my soulmate. And as fate would have it we got to sit next to each other in the car. Let's just say I never wanted the car ride to end. But it did. We went to a traditional Korean Folk Village. Solid stuff. Boring, but solid. Then we got back in the car (yay), and drove to get lunch. More stuffing my face and eating until I'm about to puke, yay! Then we got back in the car and I fell asleep. When I woke up I was leaning against lover.You think I would ruin that? No. I "went back to sleep" so I could lean on him some more. Eventually though, I decided to get up. Like five minutes after I did, he said good bye and jumped out of the car. Dave! What? No! Dave come back! Dave was gone for good and I was crushed.
We continued on to our destination, while I held back tears. Lil' Davey, I miss you. The lady we were staying with is an English teacher and we were going to her school. First we went to on of her classes and they asked us questions. There was an albino girl. It was sweet. One girl told my dad he looked like Hugh Grant. So after school ended a class had a party planned for us. I got to meet my penpal so that was cool. They did some dancing for us and I was impressed. Then they asked us questions and we asked them questions. We played some games and made some food. One of the girls told me to play my favorite music. So I turned on Cody. Naturally. It was great. But then Bruno Mars came on and I wanted to puke. So then we got pictures and said our goodbyes. It was sad. We took the train home and it took forever. But we made it. Woke up early Tuesday morning after hearing blood curling screams in the dark. Sounds good. So after crying about David a little (not really, lawlz), I went back to sleep. Woke up and Curt and Dad had another appointment to meet with Curtis' foster mom and look at his file. Meanwhile, the rest of were stuck back at the house, being forced to stuff our faces by grandma. She made us eat this nasty stuff. It was cut into squares and had the same consistancy of jello. It was gray and tasted like death. I was literally 30 seconds away from throwing up and I'm not even kidding. So after eating enough food to feed a small village, dad and Curt got back. We decided to go to some war memorial.

Korea Numero 2.
I'm baaaaack. It is now 10:30pm Ohio time and I am still in the air! 3 more hours! I'm very excited. So they are playing another movie. My Week With Marilyn. It is about Marilyn Monroe. Is a decent movie on a plane a crime? Guess so. Also, great news. I found plaid! Yay plaid you are cute! Okay, that's all for now.
Update! One hour and 16 minutes left. I have just about been up for 22 hours now. Solid. We are at 38,088 feet and there are 507 miles left to go! We are going 563 mph and have traveled 5,155 miles. It's been fun. Not really. Second meal time! Either noodles and pork or a turkey sandwich. Since I don't eat pork I'm stuck with the sandwich, yippeeeee! Stay tuned.
Preparing to descend! It is 1:00am in Ohio. Where I am it is 2:00pm. Crazy stuff! They put it yet another movie. This one is about whales and Drew Barrymore is in it. Anything she is in is a mistake. So there you go. My turkey sandwich was nasty. It was crunchy and covered in melted cheese. Ah we are landing! Gtg!
Landed in Korea at 2:30pm their time, 1:30am Ohio time. The plane got the best of me and I felt like I was gonna puke. The airport was like 500 degrees so that didn't help. But it was all okay because when we got in the train and I look to who is standing next to me and it is PLAID SHIRT. Fate. But I finally lost him at customs. It was a shame. So now we are sitting in the airport. Dad lost the bus information and we have no phones. He's gone off somewhere. Me and the bros are sitting here and not sleeping in over 24 hours has defi taken its toll. We are in a very tense, stressful environment as you can believe. Oh and this just in. Dad got ahold of someone and we are back in business. The only question is can I stay up for six or seven more hours until I can sleep? Only time will tell. If you are this far in my blog, thank you for not giving up on me. And thanks for your time. You're cute.
So after the airport we got on a bus that takes us to Seoul. It's hot and pretty miserable, but what are you gonna do? So we get off when we think it is our stop. It's not. So we call the girl who is picking us up and she says she'll be there in ten minutes. Meanwhile we sat streetside for a while with all of our luggage, getting stared at. A lot. I yelled to them that just cause we look different doesn't mean we are. Which made them judge us even more. And there was an underground "entertainment bar" right by us. So that was cool. Finally our ride came and took us to her apartment. It was then that I realized Korean driving is not like American. They don't really like to stop or slow down. Even if there is a car coming at you on a one lane street or if a person is in the street. So watch out. So we get to this apartment and now we've been up for about 28 hours. So yeah. Good plan. Let's go out to eat. So we go to this place where they cook the food in front of you (which I soon learned happened at almost all Korean restaurants). We had to take off our shoes and sit on the floor. I almost fell asleep. Curtis did. And only Ben and Jack ate so the rest of us just sat. Then, after being there for a while we decide to walk home. Which is probs a great idea considering our mental state from no sleep and Korean driving. We almost got hit like seven times. Oh well. We made it back and all went to bed. But I realized I didn't eat dinner and I was starving. The only thing I had access to was almonds. So. It was cool.
I woke up at 6:00am. (We're no longer on Ohio time in this blog.) Not used to the time change. Went to the bathroom but couldn't find the light. It was scary. Came back and had a whole box of wheat thins. Then the grandma made us gimbap, which is just rice in seaweed rolls. It was delish. Then we had to go by train to meet Curt and Jack's foster moms. While we were walking to the place, a man approached us and asked us if we could proofread a paper for him. We exchanged numbers and turns out his name was Sinclaire. Priceless. So then we went to the place to meet the foster moms. We got there early so we were able to see where the babies are kept until they find foster homes. They were adorbz. Then we met Curtis' foster mother, sister, and brother. Then we met Jack's foster mother and she asked him what he wanted to be when he grows up. He said a caterer, classy. So then we walked around and finally found a place to eat lunch. They spoke not one word of English. So that was rough. After just one day I have already lost the excitement and joyfulness I always got when I saw an Asian. Here, it's just the norm. And I've adapted. What I do get excited about is when I see a non-Asian. (NA, as we liked to call them.) (When we saw an NA, we would say "NAA", meaning non Asian alert.) It gives me hope that we aren't the only ones here. They get stares too. We are united. It is wonderful. Cause it is rough when the whole population stares at you. I've done nothing wrong.
After lunch, we got back on the train to go to a market. It was cool but I'm not a shopper so it got real old real fast. So we were there for a while and I was videotaping cute boys. Naturally. Is that illegal? Oh well. They were cute. So then we went back to the apartment and gave the family we are staying with some presents. They liked them. So then we went to bed. Cause we were tired. And maybe you're tired of reading this. So take a break, take a nap, and come back later.
Woke up Saturday morning. I was all like, Woah, Morning! We decided a bike ride would be acceptable. We went with the lady we are staying with and her three daughters. They are seven, six, and four. And cute. We went to the library first, and the little girl rode her bike into the library. Naturally. And no one even cared. In America, everyone would judge a child on a bike in a library. Not here though. So then we went to the bike rental. Jack and I went into the room with all the bikes and this lady starts yelling at us in Korean. It was scary. So we got two seater bikes. It was not a fun time. My butt is still in pain. So then we went back to the apartment and got our things. We got on the train and went to a new place to stay. Speaking of the train, I forgot to talk about it. The train is always crowded. On one ride it was so packed that no one could move. And when it's your stop, you just have to push through and hope you can get to the doors before they close. No one moves out of the way. You just have to squeeze through. It's an adventure. Dad barely made it out once. The doors were closing and he pushed them back open and jumped out real fast. It was nice. People judged. SO after we got settled in at the new place, we left for a baseball game. It was exciting. The fans are so much more into it there than in America. They have so much fun. And in case the Americans weren't being stared at enough, dad had to go and catch the a foul ball. And everyone stared. A lot. Oh hey. So we leave the game an inning early to beat overpopulation of the train on the way back. We go to get through the gate and our train cards are out of money. So we are racing against the clock to reload them. Before the crowd comes.. We made it. And we got back to the house and went to bed. Goodnight. Stay fresh!

Korea Take One.
Okay, lucky for y'all I kept a blog in Korea. Here is my journey. Enjoy it. Love it. Live it.
Hola Amigas. That's ironic isn't it? Since I am on my way to Korea. I would say hello friends in Korean if I could. But I can't. Hence the Spanish. So I am taking note of everything that happens specifically so I can blog about it. And then this twelve hour plane ride got boring so I decided I would hand write my blog now and type it when I get home. I might have to have more than one blog because so much has already happened and I'm not even to Korea yet. So I will tell you everything important that has happened up to this point and we'll see where that leaves us. Just an update real fast, we have traveled some miles and are up 32,000 feet or so. It said it on the screen but then they turned on How I Met Your Mother. So you'll have to wait on exact numbers. Just know I still have eight hours of this fun. Okay. So I woke up at 3:30am after a good three hours of sleep. We left the house at 4am, and got to the airport around 4:40am. That was where I saw the first cute boy of the trip. In security. Earrings and a cutoff, and oh so dreamy. Then when we got to our gate, this pilot appeared and I am pretty sure he is my soulmate. His eyes were perf. I just wanted to propose then and there. But I kept myself in check. So this guy was not our pilot. He was a pilot. Who rode on our plane. But just for fun. As a passenger. So we are sitting there and our pilot, like our actual pilot, comes and goes up to the desk and is like, where am I flying today? Like are you dumb? And the lady is like Chicago! And the pilot is like, Chicago, really? Like yes really. Pull yourself together. So we eventually get into the plane and there are a good 25 people in there. It was fun. I even got some sprite. We departed at 5:45am. We got to witness the sunrise from the plane. It was sweet. We arrived in Chicago at 5:55am. However, there was a time change. So in Ohio time it would actually be 6:55am. On the way out of the plane, this guy hit me in the head with his suitcase. Thanks. Okay real quick I gotta throw this in. Does anyone else watch Amish Out Of Order on National Geopgraphic? Like, my favorite guy on the show died. Cephas. He was 19. Car crash. I just found out yesterday and it's bringing me down. Rest in peace lil' buddy. Okay back to my journey around the world. So we get out of the plane and our tickets tell us our next flight is at gate B12. We arrive at gate C5. So we walk like a mile underground and finally get to B12. I'm just gonna stick to Ohio time from now on so that it is easier. The plane was supposed to leave at 8:04. So at like 7:30 we find out we are at the wrong gate. Do you know where we are supposed to be? C10. Do you know where that is? Where we started. So we had to walk another mile underground back. It was fun. Luckily we got there in time. And at the Chicago airport there were these weird toilet seat covers that rotated with the press of a button. It was weird. And the covers were slippery and I just about fell in the toilet. Plus they made you pay for wifi. Bratz. So we get in line to board the plane and the lady says "Oh, the pilot is missing!" Ummmmmmmm, what? Okay sweet. So we board the plane at 8:05. And we sit. And sit. And sit. And finally the flight attendant comes over the intercom and says that they found trash in the engine and they're waiting for someone to come get it. Sounds good. So we don't leave until 8:45. Just to remind you this is a four hour flight and our next flight is at 1:40. So it was cutting it close. SO what fun stuff happened on this plane? It was small and packed. They made me watch Journey 2 with Joshy and Baby V. Thanks. Hate you too. So I made myself go to sleep and I woke up thinking, wow I slept awhile! Then I look up to see Journey not even over yet. Yay! But then I turn around and see this cute boy in plaid. Maybe he wasn't even cute but there is something about plaid that makes a boy cute. Update. We've traveled 3,069 miles. We are at 36,082 feet. 2,612 miles and five hours, eight minutes left til our destination. Hooray! We are going 537 mph. Okay. So back to cute boy. I kept turning around and staring at him. He caught me. A lot. But I figured I'll never see him again so who cares? Then I turned on the plane radio. I went to the hits station. They played Drive By and Payphone so I decided it was good. But then this rap about airports came on. I jammed out for like 30 seconds but then was forced to turn it off. By my ears. Then this girl comes down the aisle and I almost passed out. Ummmm....Brianna? Sex offender from gym class? I mean, of course it wasn't her, but at first glance I swore it was. I almost died. Of joy, obvi. Oh and one last thing about this flight. The flight attendant's name was Kev. Not Kevin. His nametag said Kev. Classy. So we got off this plane which landed at 1:04 Ohio time. Pm, fyi. And we run to the next gate and guess who is in line to go to Korea? PLAIIDDDDDD. Hollla. Plus, besides my family and him, everyone else in line is Asian. Life is good. So I follow Plaid onto the plane and purposely run into him a lil'. But I sat down and lost him. But hey. I've got five hours. I'll find him. So lemme tell you about this plane. Double decker. Ginormous. Like 75 rows, two aisles, ten seats in every row. There are like 5 bathrooms and all these flat screens. It is the life. Plus there is a hunky Asian in front of me. He is wearing a Phillies hat and I'm doing all I can not to kiss him. He is like playing on his ipad and I am watching over his shoulder. He doesn't see me. He is playing Fifa, and losing. Poor boy. Okay so the plane said they were gonna entertain me with a movie. Good, I thought. Nothing can be as bad as Journey 2. I guess they heard my thoughts and took it as a challenge. They put on John Carter. John Carter? Are you kidding me? It's about like aliens or something. I couldn't follow. No one knows what the story line is. All I know is John Carter and this lady get married. And then the movie ends. And all are happy. This just in. Hot Asian is watching Super 8 on his iPad. So am I. He doesn't know. So after the movie they gave me lunch. I was hungry. It was like 2pm Ohio time and all I had since I woke up at 3:30am was some almonds. They asked me if I wanted chicken or beef. So obvi I go with beef. But they didn't give me just beef. They gave me beef. Rice. Carrots. A salad. A roll. And a cookie. I downed it in a minute or two. Then stole my brother's salad. And roll. It was wonderful. And then they put on a new movie called "Man On A Ledge." If the title doesn't intregue you, consider yourself lucky. The whole movie is about, you guessed it. A man on a ledge. Literally. That's all. It was a wreck. And that leads us to the present. My present, not your present. This won't be posted until like a week from now. Cute Asian keeps looking at me. I've narrowed it down to three reasons why it could be. 1.) Because I am kicking his seat. 2.) Because I am watching a movie over his shoulder. Or 3.) Because I am pretty. I'm 98% sure it is the pretty one. Oh hey if you are interested there is an Asian fashion show on! Wooooooo, okay. That's all I got for now. BBL. Maybe in this blog or maybe in a new one. Just in case, stay fresh.

Plus they made you pay for wifi. Bratz. So we get in line to board the plane and the lady says "Oh, the pilot is missing!" Ummmmmmmm, what? Okay sweet. So we board the plane at 8:05. And we sit. And sit. And sit. And finally the flight attendant comes over the intercom and says that they found trash in the engine and they're waiting for someone to come get it. Sounds good. So we don't leave until 8:45. Just to remind you this is a four hour flight and our next flight is at 1:40. So it was cutting it close. SO what fun stuff happened on this plane? It was small and packed. They made me watch Journey 2 with Joshy and Baby V. Thanks. Hate you too. So I made myself go to sleep and I woke up thinking, wow I slept awhile! Then I look up to see Journey not even over yet. Yay! But then I turn around and see this cute boy in plaid. Maybe he wasn't even cute but there is something about plaid that makes a boy cute. Update. We've traveled 3,069 miles. We are at 36,082 feet. 2,612 miles and five hours, eight minutes left til our destination. Hooray! We are going 537 mph. Okay. So back to cute boy. I kept turning around and staring at him. He caught me. A lot. But I figured I'll never see him again so who cares? Then I turned on the plane radio. I went to the hits station. They played Drive By and Payphone so I decided it was good. But then this rap about airports came on. I jammed out for like 30 seconds but then was forced to turn it off. By my ears. Then this girl comes down the aisle and I almost passed out. Ummmm....Brianna? Sex offender from gym class? I mean, of course it wasn't her, but at first glance I swore it was. I almost died. Of joy, obvi. Oh and one last thing about this flight. The flight attendant's name was Kev. Not Kevin. His nametag said Kev. Classy. So we got off this plane which landed at 1:04 Ohio time. Pm, fyi. And we run to the next gate and guess who is in line to go to Korea? PLAIIDDDDDD. Hollla. Plus, besides my family and him, everyone else in line is Asian. Life is good. So I follow Plaid onto the plane and purposely run into him a lil'. But I sat down and lost him. But hey. I've got five hours. I'll find him. So lemme tell you about this plane. Double decker. Ginormous. Like 75 rows, two aisles, ten seats in every row. There are like 5 bathrooms and all these flat screens. It is the life. Plus there is a hunky Asian in front of me. He is wearing a Phillies hat and I'm doing all I can not to kiss him. He is like playing on his ipad and I am watching over his shoulder. He doesn't see me. He is playing Fifa, and losing. Poor boy. Okay so the plane said they were gonna entertain me with a movie. Good, I thought. Nothing can be as bad as Journey 2. I guess they heard my thoughts and took it as a challenge. They put on John Carter. John Carter? Are you kidding me? It's about like aliens or something. I couldn't follow. No one knows what the story line is. All I know is John Carter and this lady get married. And then the movie ends. And all are happy. This just in. Hot Asian is watching Super 8 on his iPad. So am I. He doesn't know. So after the movie they gave me lunch. I was hungry. It was like 2pm Ohio time and all I had since I woke up at 3:30am was some almonds. They asked me if I wanted chicken or beef. So obvi I go with beef. But they didn't give me just beef. They gave me beef. Rice. Carrots. A salad. A roll. And a cookie. I downed it in a minute or two. Then stole my brother's salad. And roll. It was wonderful. And then they put on a new movie called "Man On A Ledge." If the title doesn't intregue you, consider yourself lucky. The whole movie is about, you guessed it. A man on a ledge. Literally. That's all. It was a wreck. And that leads us to the present. My present, not your present. This won't be posted until like a week from now. Cute Asian keeps looking at me. I've narrowed it down to three reasons why it could be. 1.) Because I am kicking his seat. 2.) Because I am watching a movie over his shoulder. Or 3.) Because I am pretty. I'm 98% sure it is the pretty one. Oh hey if you are interested there is an Asian fashion show on! Wooooooo, okay. That's all I got for now. BBL. Maybe in this blog or maybe in a new one. Just in case, stay fresh.

Cheetahlicious Christmas
Uhhhh, hellllo. I am having a weird, like really weird, couple of days. I am just gonna go ahead and give y'all a run down of my life. Shall I start on yesterday? Probably cause I don't remember what I did the day before yesterday. Sooooooo yeah. Yesterday all the fun started when I remembered that my cousin invited me over to her house for a Pretty Little Liars premiere party. So I decided, why not? It could be fun. So my parents decide to take the opportunity to have a night to themselves and ship my brothers to my cousins house with me. So we get there and we park on the street. And right before we get out of the car this boy goes up to my cousins front door and I'm all like. What is this? A boy at the PLL party? I am not dressed for a cute boy. I am dressed for a group of girls. Not cute boys. there is a difference. So I made my brothers stay in the car and we watched the boy. He stood on the porch for a while and then he got back in this car and left. So we got out and turns out he was just the paper boy. But it was scary nonetheless. So we go in and my brothers go wherever, with our cousin their age. And I go to the party and there are all these Ursula girls there that I don't know and it was awky. But they were all really nice and so we watched PLL for a while. After the premiere, we decided to bring out the Ouija board. Holllllla. It was exciting. I never really believed in those but I thought it would be fun. Plus I had never done it in the dark before because I had always been too scared. So this was exhilarating. So we start and we ask the spirit if it is here and it goes to yes and we ask it's name. I was skeptical and figured someone was moving the thing. So my cousin tells us she has a ghost named Daphne in her house. and the thing goes to D and so we say goodbye cause we get scared. Then we try again. This time we ask its name and she says her name is Cara. She is 12 years old. She told us she died of a cab crash and lived on Queen City. It was weird. Then we wanted to test the honesty of the people doing the Ouija board. There was a girl there who was texting someone. Her and two other girls knew who she was texting, and no one else did. These three girls weren't using the Ouija, just watching. So we asked Cara, who was the last person this girl texted? The board spelled out Michelle. So apparently that is the name of the person this girl was last texting. And none of the people playing the Ouija knew this girl and had never heard of her. And so we asked Cara this girl's last name and she just spelled it out. It was scary. Mostly because none of the people using the Ouija had ever heard of this girl. So then we asked Cara where she lived, and she said the second story bathroom....never going in there again...then we asked her why she was there. She spelled out to scare. We asked her if she was there to scare us? She went to yes. Then we asked her if she would leave. She said no. Then we asked her where she was and she freaking went to the picture on the board of the ghost behind the girl. Aka, she was behind one of us. It was really scary and so we ended it there. So it was really really scary. But great. And then my other weird/scary story is this. I've been trying to organize a grade school reunion. But only four people texted back so I decided to cancel it. So I texted everyone and told them no one responded so the reunion was called off. So I get a message back from an old classmate. he started a convo which I thought was weird because we hadn't talked in forever and he is not the kind to have a conversation with. I'll just relay the conversation right here. It was WEIRD.
Him: I'm sorry.
Me: Haha no you're fine.
Him: O ok lol how r u?
Me: Great! How are you? We haven't talked in forever.
Him: Im doin pretty good lol just been workin alot and getting ready to move lol i know i was kinda surprised when u texted me lol
Me: Haha yeahh I didn't even know if this was your right number. That's cool though, where are you working?
Him: Home depot lol i figured i live in bridgetown might as well work close by lol
Me: That's sweet what do you do there?
Him: Stock the shelves and reach trucks lol
Me: That sounds fun! I'd seriously love doing that
Him: Lol yea its decent what do u do?
Me: I actually just quit my job. I worked at (insert job here except if creepy people read this I will keep it private). My boss bullied me and like told me how dumb and stupid I am and how I shouldn't have applied there in the first place....yeah I quit after 9 long months
Him: Well thats bull i wouldnt be able to put up with that as long as u did
Me: Haha yeah it was hell. I would come home crying and my parents told me I was overreacting...but they finally let me quit after a while. But now I need a new job.
Him: Hm im not sure what alls hiring right now i think target is and i can ask my manager when he gets here is we are
Me: Solid solid yeah I'd work anywhere at this point. Besides (old job). Hahah
Him: Lol yea we should hand out soon and catch up lol
Me: Yes we should! It's been too long
Him: Yes it has lol when would u be free?
Me: I'm usually free all the time. Literally. I do nothing.
Him: U doin anything saturday?
Me: Not anymore!
Him: Wanna hang then? Lol
Me: Well sure!
Him: Awesome! lol what part of town u stay in?
Me: Where I've always been. Back in the old hood. By (insert street close to my house).
Him: Im tryin to remember where thats at lol
Me: By your old house on (insert street name). Hah don't you remember where that is?
Him: I didnt live on (street name) lol thats the (insert township name) area aint it?
Me: Wait who is this?
Him: (Disclosed Name). (Not who I thought I was texting.) (At all.) we went to high school together lol
Then he texted me a few more times. Good thing I was about 5 seconds from giving him my address. Pretty sure he would have come to my house and killed me. It was a seriously scary time for me. I might have trouble sleeping tonight. I just thought y'all should know about my fun life. Cause it is really fun. okay. Be careful. Know who you are texting. Don't talk to strangers. And lastly, Stay Fresh.
