Sumer vacation... IS (almost) HERE!!!

So, so far, summer seems to be off to a great start, because My sisters, my friend (to the left), and I kicked it off with a bake sale for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day (by the way, this is a actually REAL holiday). In which we earned 50$!!! $55.34 to be exact. And our summer vacation hasn't even started! It officially starts on May 29th! so excited!

Brief Catch Up....

Yaaaay! Guess who's ba-a-a-a-ak?! ME!

I took a short break from blogging so I could focus on my busy life!!! And now that i'm back, i want to tell you some things that happened in those few months:


My family got a very... er...STRANGE pet.

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of her on our family computer, but shes...a...

DUCK!!!

...and she's a cute Malard. My amazing Dad (who BTW, built the ziplines, reference to my earlier post)

is building a duck aviary for her.

I TURNED 12!!!!! Ok...that was a long time ago, but still, 12!!!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Went to ALLIANCE REDWOODS (conference grounds) for a overnight outdoor education! SOOO MUCH FUN!!!




Thats pretty much it.

my presentation for school project....

This is a presentation you'll love!

Sometimes, there are days that everything is going your way, today is not one of those days.

   Sorry I haven't been posting regularly, its just, a lot of things just were in my way. Also, a lot of crazy, unexpected things happened. For example, my mom got an Ipad for her birthday. AN IPAD!!??!!??!!! I HAVE BEEN BEGGING MY PARENTS FOR ONE FOR, LIKE EVER!!! Well, she is my mom, so I shouldn't be psyched about that. But also, where I live, there was a 6.0 earthquake that trashed my room... IN 3 IN THE MORNING!!!!!! If I had to mention my worst, pathological fear ever, it'd be earthquakes (and bees. don't even get me started on bees.). And if you read my earlier post, you'd know that I have loft beds. And if your sleeping on loft beds that are 6 ft high, it could make earthquakes a lot more scarier. And my grandpa broke his neck in a bicycle accident.
    You see what I mean? TALK ABOUT HECTIC! So anyhow, it's been up and down in this family. An example of an up, My little sis had her first day of school!

 An example of a down, today. I just don't fell good, today. I was sitting on the platform of the launch-zone for our zip line 'The Leap of Faith', playing with my BB gun ammo collection, when it hit me. I decided it was the perfect time to blog! My sister is calling me to play My Little Ponies with her, and besides, who can say no to this little Ms. Sunshine?

My (totally new) backyard

    Hey, have I ever mentioned I have THE COOL1EST DAD EVER !!!!!!!!!!!! No, I didn't think so! He is cool for many reasons. Reason 1, he's a FIREFIGHTER! The bad news is the dept. doesn't have enough firefighters, so he is gone a lot. Reason 2, he built 2 ZIP LINES : o!!! IN OUR SMALL BACKYARD! Unfortunately, my mom says I can't post pictures, for my safety, anymore, but that is subject to change, because mom says, I "might" be able to post pictures without me in it! So I will try to show u pictures, soon!
      The 1st one connects to a hill and comes down to our clubhouse (In case your wondering, no my dad didn't built that). It has a little seat with a little seat belt!
      The second one has a platform you jump off with a harness strapped to you. It goes from the trees to the clubhouse!
      These zip lines are new, AND FUN! All my friends are soooo envious!  >:3 He He! I have to go now, I will write more tomorrow! bye . .
                                                             U

craftiness is definitely a good thing, especially if it involves food!

       So, today was the second day of school, at it started out average, until lunchtime! So I was working on my complicated 6th grade math, and I decided it was time for a lunch break (I am home schooled). so I was heating up the oven to make Naan bread, (sorta like pita bread, but WAAAY better!) when it struck me... the best lunch idea EVER! Pita bread sandwiches! I made them. Ate them. Then made some more! They are soooo good! And almost allergen free! here is the recipe....

Pets, the social, loving family members of life!

        As a kid, I find it very difficult to find the time to blog. Summer is officially over, and I am bouncing off the walls, for numerous reasons, but the best reason is Autumn! Autumn is the absolute, favorite, best-of-the-best season ever! All of the holidays, including me, and half of my families birthdays (yes, that also means my two pets, Snowflake the cat and Lucy, my lifelong friend, the dog).
        I have decided to tell you something very personal, something even my mom doesn't know about it. I love animals. I want to grow up and adopt a lot of pets! But, recently, a PSA (aka, Public Service Announcement) informed me about all the sweet, loving animals who don't have homes, and they don't deserve to have to go through all that hardship. I did a little research on possible animal shelters that I can volunteer at, but I don't fit in the age range! I am 11 (12 in November) years old. I don't have a high allowance (5 dollars a week if I "qualify" in Mom's book) so I can't raise a banded gecko, the ideal pet in my book. I am so torn that there are so many animals out there who need help, and I can't do much but donate a couple pennies to shelters in California.
         I wrote this blog to inspire those who read my blog, to volunteer at shelters near you, to donate as much as you can to animal shelters, or adopt a pet in need. I hope I can volunteer as soon as possible. Please, do it for the animals!
