Ah...nostalgia.

I've been listening to a GC playlist on YouTube with all the music. It's so sweet and nostalgic that I cannot wait for GC in January when I get my money back. :')

On a different note, I'm going tomorrow to Alicia's house. Elyse and Grace will be there, whom are friends from when I used to dance and haven't seen since like summer or something. I forget. Taylor might be there - which is also an old friend from dance. We'll see how it all goes, I guess. We never got around *perfectly* but oh well.

On yet another note, haha, I haven't done much lately. I was thinking of signing up for Tumblr because I noticed there's a lot of really good RP-ers on there (like Jovi, Smores, etc.) and it looks fun. But I don't like how you have to use a celebrity for your character's looks. It's super-duper confusing, too. I've spent the last two hours just trying to get it to all work. Fun~

Let's see, I've had a nostalgic day so far, I guess. I should tell a story of my past to wrap it all up, hehe. I don't know what, though. I could talk about my nine years of dance, but goal-ay, that a long story...hm...let's talk about my love, Louie. <3

http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l571/ZeezZeez/My%20Pets/LouiePitiful.jpg

Louie is a six-year-old Puggle we got back in what? 2006? 2005, I think. We had wanted a dog for some time and our mom didn't want to be that mom that wouldn't let their kids have a dog. Our dad wanted a dog he could take out in the boat and not be embarrassed to have out with him, like a poodle. XD Which is precisely what I wanted at the time. So we found Liz Haynes, who was a breeder who lived like three hours away. We packed up the car and had a ton of errands so it took the entire day to go up there. The dogs were only seven weeks old when we left and we got there, adoring the cute puppies. There were three litters, each of like twenty puppies.

...I'm not sure how that worked out, to be honest...

Anyway, they were not a puppy mill and that was really what we wanted for our dog. Our mom picked out one puppy from each litter she liked and we played with each one. The first one was pretty chubby and more pale, the kind of puppy you see tripping over his feet. The second one was somewhat runt-ish and a dark brown with skinny legs. We didn't really like those two for some reason. The third was Louie, whom we loved at first sight and played in the grass with for some time.

He was incredibly tiny. Teeny-tiny. We had a deal that they would go fishing with our dad's charter business - in exchange for a $700 dog. ;\ They never went fishing. So our dog was freeeeeeee! :D

Chloe hogged him in the car ride home, I couldn't reach down and pet him because at the time I was still in a car seat. ): It started storming on the way home, so Louie was really frightened but Chloe held him tight and petted him. [/jealous]

When we got home, Mom had to rush out and buy him some dog food 'cause we didn't have any. We didn't know we'd bring him home since he was still only seven weeks old. He still teethed and stuff, which is why. We fed him some leftover chicken and he was so happy, heh. More nostalgia... xD

After some math, we found out his Birthday was July 19th. We still celebrate his Birthday every year by going out fishing. He'd curl up in our beach bag all sweetly 'cause he was so small. Oh, the memories. Our first dog was so sweet and adorable.

Nowadays I still sit on my dad's lap with him curled up next to me on his lap. D'aww.
Maybe tomorrow I'll talk about our cat, Katie.

NaNoWriMo Novel!

I'm going to start editing my NaNoWriMo novel soon. Like, ten minutes from now soon. I don't really want to, but I need to and my mom's been bugging me about it. So I can't really post much.

My friend's Birthday is tomorrow! Also ten days 'til Christmas. Yay!

Nightmare.

I had my first nightmare last night for the first time in a long time. Sorry I didn't blog yesterday, I was busy having a bad day. ;\ I won't go into detail why. :B

Basically I woke up shaking from a dream most people would laugh at. Because I am so lame like that. Several of my ACC buddies know I have an irrational fear of germs (also Public Bathrooms...). So we were at Disney World and I had to use the bathroom really bad. And the bathroom was so germy and horrible I...yeah. Like I said, lame.

I ended up getting up - it was 5 - and sleeping the rest of the morning in my mom's bed with my good old friends Stripie, BigHead, Melvin and Zhamu. Who are three zebras and one orca I got from SeaWorld, whose name coincidentally rhymes with Shamu. Ha.

Back from Alicia's.

And we didn't do much. We pretty much played Super Mario Galaxy, colored some Christmas sheets and played a bit of Wii Play. That's about all I ever do when I go over there. xD I'm thinking about playing Animal Crossing again, I logged on this morning but the snow stuck and I love the snow this time of year. <3

As for yesterday what I forgot...when we were waiting for the parade we played Angry Birds on her iPad and it was so awesome. I had never held one before. o.o'

Not much to say.

I played Mario Kart all morning both by myself and with my sister, Chloe. I might go to Alicia's house but she's been sick lately and I reeeeeally don't wanna catch it. Her grandma finished Hunger Games and loved the ending. Meh. I don't know what to say so here's a crappy post for telling you that.

Phew. What a day.

So. Let's start at the morning.

I woke up and realized my ears closed up over the ten hours I slept overnight. Halfway and I couldn't get the Christmas earrings I wanted to put in, in. So that was a bust. I wore a red and black shirt with my black leggings and brown winter boots. It was 60 outside at the time, so it seemed fitting. We picked up Alicia and I guess lately I've just been really irritable...today I was annoyed so easily by her and normally it doesn't bother me. :\

We got to the pet store and shopped around while we waited on the parade. No cute guinea pigs, the birds' noises were also getting on my nerves more than they normally did. We got to see a chameleon and stuff. A cute puppy...but Mom saw some Russian Dwarf Hamsters she practically fell in love with and guess who might be getting a new pet sometime soon? XD

Then we went out and waited for the parade for like an hour and a half. Sigh. It was dull to make conversation so long and much. Augh. When the parade finally came, we were let down by there being a less-than-normal amount of these fancy policemen that have this organized routine where they practically kill each other. The high school band was playing Party Rock Anthem and lemme tell 'ya, that was plain AWESOME. Of course, Alicia didn't know what the song was...eh, step 3 of computer lessons? MEMES AND POPULAR SONGS.

Then I saw Aly! Hooray! She was carrying the sign (she can't play since she's only a sixth grader...) and looking awesome in her official shirt and everything. We waved and smiled and stuff. About twenty minutes later she snuck up on me and scared me half to death by doing the good old 'BOO!'.

After that parade, we went to a church (so hard not to get into some sort of heated conversation with a nearby priest...) to wait on the parade to start. They were serving food and stuff but I had to wash my hands, naturally, because no way am I going to eat something that will be touching my hands that touched swingsets and the ground and pets and my sick friend... (Alicia) O_o

So after that we went back outside and watched the other kids play Red Rover or something...pretty interesting concept, but I found it violent. :S Just me, prob'ly...anyway...I happened to be wearing a red shirt and black pants, but missing the black marching shoes and people kept asking me, "Why aren't you wearing your marching shoes?!" and I had to explain I was with Aly. xD

I also had some group of boys ask me what grade I was in and I told them ninth and they went, "Liar," and I told them I was homeschooled. They all laughed. I hate people like them.

Soonafter we made our way to the Oak Hill parade, Aly had been yelling my name whenever the certain time in Red Rover and that really got on my nerves. ;~; I tried not to say anything though. The parade was fun, got some candy, it was TINY though and the entire thing only went like five blocks. xD

Phew. THEN we went to Aly's house and saw her fancy-shmancy new kitchen! It had the big refrigerator, the touch sinkhead anywhere and it'd turn on, and granite 1,000+ countertops and they still haven't bought flooring yet. And they're still adding on a whole new bedroom and living room! Wealthy houses are so nice to be in. Aly's nice too, so it all adds up.

We pretty much sat outside in the nice breeze talking and eating candy until it got so freaking windy we had to go inside. Then we watched TV until I had to come home. A lot more happened, but I'm so tired by now. I got my earrings in now after putting ice to both my ears. Now to go collapse...

Social Life! :D

Today my friend - Alicia - is coming over for game night. We usually try to get together on Fridays and play board games and maybe when Mom and her grandma go off we can play Rayman Ravving Rabbids TV-Party (one of the best party games ever!).

Tomorrow is the parade and then I'm going to Aly's house. Right now I'm listening to Skyscraper by Luke Conard.

Not much to say. I've been hyped about GC and looking up anything I can!

Hm...what to talk about...

Well, I got a dare from a friend of mine when I started this blog to blog every day in December up 'til Christmas Eve. So today I'll talk about my Christmas plans. :S

I'm going to get a pair of Converse, they'll be really cool since I made them myself. I get paid back by some people that owe me money in January so that's when I'll be buying GC and a Classic Controller to play it. Yay! I'm excited for that. We'll most likely be staying home, eating doughnuts for breakfast and just Christmas stuff like that. We used to go home for Christmas but we haven't been since I was six, so...

I was also asking for that crystal I need to make that necklace (...not mentioned here, on ACC) but I can't find it anywhere to ask for it. Sigh. I am also getting a coat from a TV show I watch repeats of, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Harry's coat, if you know of it.

I'll also probably be getting a stocking full of Reese's and Kit-Kat's, which are the best candies ever. So that's something else to nibble on all day. I also might ask for WarioWare: Smooth Moves, which is a game I used to play at my friend's house before she scratched the disc... ._. It's totally underrated, however. <3

Not much fancy-schmany planned. Our tree's up and nice, I wrapped my sister's present earlier.

Blossom Tree High.

So as some of you may know, RP-ing is like, the best thing ever. It's like writing a book but you have to wait to turn the page. It's the best, like playing dolls but more fun because you can imagine more. It's imagination. So anyway, I want to talk about the main one I've done since this year (2011) in January.

Blossom Tree High~RPG
Okay, so there are four main RP-ers. danni99, Jovi, Smores and myself. Here are the characters...

Kylie Bennett - so when I originally made her, I was a total amateur and in a way, I kind of regret making such a Mary-Sue character. xD But really, she's made a huge RP craze for Jovi and I and it's been really fun! Basically, she's thirteen and ended up skipping a bunch of grades when she woke up smart one day. She has psychic powers (see? Told you.) but yeah, she's a lot like me and heh...yeah. But she's pretty fun to RP. Her personality is heh...a lot like me...  ;\ http://wwwdelivery.superstock.com/WI/223/1830/PreviewComp/SuperStock_1830-28941.jpg

Fletcher (Flynn) Rosario - He's my character. Pretty cliche boy character, honestly. He likes food, hates exercise, loves WoW and he's tries to be funny. Usually gets a good laugh out of people, my own character. He's seventeen and looks fifteen, pretty basic. Currently in a relationship with Harriet... xD He is originally from New Zealand but doesn't remember. He's dad's dead. ;\
http://www.newenglandbehavioral.com/images/happy-teenage-boy.gif

Oliver Rogers/Taylors - Definitely my favorite character in the RP. He's RP-ed by Jovi and he's hilarious. One minute he's totally nerding out with some computer case and the next he's a total fool. He and Kylie make a pretty funny team together and I don't know how to describe him otherwise. He's your basic sophomore in high school... http://i56.tinypic.com/14ln0v5.jpg

Harriet...something - I forget her last name. DX She's RP-ed by Smores and dating Flynn, she used to date Charlie. Really a girly-girl. Paints her nails, make up, fashion, likes to cook, wealthy...

Charlie Harris - Jovi's newer character, he's plain looking, an artist and he's pretty awkward and shy, too. I don't know much about him since he's so shy /heh/ and neither of my characters have had much interaction with him... http://bigacttheatre.co.uk/images/picture%20daniel%20porfile%202010%20047.jpg

Megan...something - I don't know much about her. RP-ed by Smores. She's pretty mysterious...really...iunno. I wish I had a better description. /stupid/ She's an artist! She has a crush on Flynn.

Scarlet-Anne - I don't know her last name either. I know she's an artist and friends with Megan. RP-ed by Smores.

That's all the current characters...the RPG was originally made by yugdyhixruby but she gave up because Jovi and I originally were wayyy too fast RP-ers for her. Basically Kylie and Oliver face a ton of random plots we come up with in their own parallel time (I spelled it right! :D) and the other characters mind their own business. Sometimes they meet up in the right timezone - but not often, hehe.

Thanks for reading...maybe some other time I'll mention some of my favorite plots. :')

Such a weird thing to see...

Okay, so when my grandparents were in town a few weeks back, we were on our way to go out to dinner. Not so different. We drove by this little holding pond down the street and at the very most it's pro'bly eight feet deep. I doubt it, though, it probably only gets to like six. It's plain, dirty and full of trash. Although this particular night, it was full of something else...

...there was a van stuck in the mud near the middle. As in, a seven person passenger van. >___> There was a rope and a car on the outside of the pond trying to pull it out. The people were still in it and you could see them trying to get them out of the pond. It was really kind of scary, actually. Anyway, we think someone didn't see it and revved up and into the pond, haha. Who knows, really, but it was pretty weird.

We sat there marveling at the fact a van was in the pond for about ten minutes before we moved onto the restaurant. Pretty funny. xD The van is still actually next to the pond, it was coated in mud for a few weeks but it rained and now it's clean. It must not work or something because it's still there, like, a month later...huh.

So, yeah. Today my friend Aly called me and we had both lost each others' phone numbers. I'm going to her house to hang out on Saturday. Yay! The parade is also this Saturday, so we'll go see it prob'ly and meet her at the end since she's in the band in the parade.

Also...a joke our family thought up the other evening...haha.

So imagine this. A couple is together at a restaurant. They've been dating for 5+ years and the man gets down on one knee and proposes to her. She's all smiles when she says, "Hold on! I've got one for you too! :D" and she reaches into her purse, digging around. She pulls out a ring, not in a box or anything, and it's got a mint stuck to it and a piece of lint.

If you don't get it; the man buys the set of wedding rings. The fact that a woman has a ring for him means she's prob'ly either a) desperate or b) a bit odd.

I was chuckling and laughing and giggling for like, twenty minutes. It's now an inside joke to go, "Hold on! I've got one for you too! :D"

Radio Contests.

Ever entered one? Back in 2008, I think, my sister and I entered our first radio contest for the first time. Our mom reallyreallyreally wanted to go to a concert, it was on her Bucket List to see Eric Clapton in concert one more time. We really didn't have any money for it at the time and she wanted to go so bad.

We were listening to our local radio we always do and we heard they were hosting a contest to win tickets to go see him. On the day of the contest, we woke up at six and researched how to win until it started at eight. We had to listen to the radio and call in when they played one of his songs and had to call in and be the tenth caller to win 2 tickets to his concert. We called when we heard I Shot the Sheriff playing. We called during some other songs, but we didn't even get through. We were using both cell phones and the home phone at the same time.

So I finally got through for the first time and it was ringing. I was shocked and excited, but really hoping I didn't get a 'fifth caller!' from the lady. All it took was 'Congratulations-' and I full out screamed.

We had won.

I screamed for like, twenty seconds. When I finally got over the shock my dad came running in the room and thought I had been electrocuted, haha. He didn't even help us all morning 'cause he said we'd never win.

I started thanking the lady on the phone over and over and over and then Poppa picked up 'cause apparently they don't trust eleven year old girls who scream on the phone when they win. Heh. My sister and I went into the kitchen and turned the radio on as loud as it would go and listened to them play my thanks and screams.

Okay, so we won a radio contest? What's the best part?

My mom was on her way to work and listening to the radio channel and heard my scream. She went, "That sounds like Zee..." and then she heard my thanks and went, "That sounds a lot like Zee..." and then when my dad picked up she started crying.

She got to work and her co-worker said we called and she said, "I bet they did!" they couldn't tell why she was so excited and crying and she had to tell them.

We got the rest of the day off from studies. xD

Weather and Mario Kart.

The weather here has been unbearably hot. As in, 81 degrees Fahrenheit all day long.Winter Boots > Flip-flops. I wish it'd cool off to the sixties so we can drink hot chocolate and eat cookies and actually feel like Christmas. :S

Due to the heat, my mom, my sister and I have been playing Mario Kart on the Wii. No, not on our brand new 3DS's, (by the way, that was sarcastic) and I beat my sister a few times. She plays on Manual so it boosts her speed. Personally I can't do that, too weird for me...I like Automatic. My mom plays Yoshi, my sister Baby Mario and myself Toadette. Heh. I used to play Toad because nobody seemed to like him, I hate to move on. I feel like I've abandoned a good friend...

My sister beat me the majority of the time, oh well...

Not much to say today. Maybe I wouldn't be a good Vlogger...

Vloggers!

I've decided to dedicate a whole post of this blog towards some of my favorite people. Luke Conard, Ingrid, Joey Graceffa and Whitney. Also known as WinterSpringPro, LukeConard, LukeConard2, TheGridMonster and a whole bunch of other nonsense usernames they use for all the other stuff. Let's see. I discovered this fantastic group of people from their parody of The Hunger Games. Pretty good stuff. And y'know, the fact of Joey and Luke being cute has nothing to do it it.

Luke's a musician and I've been listening to his newest song Worth It, on repeat pretty much non-stop...heh. They all live in L.A. and watching it all makes me want to live there or at Chicago. Pretty good music and fun parodies and such...not much else to say. Today's Saturday and I haven't done much, honestly...I've been RP-ing as much as possible (the main thing I do in my day :s) and watching Soul Reaper. I know, how weeaboo of me. My sister sucked me into it, haha.

That's...all for now.

Hurroh.

Well, I've decided to take up blogging. Maybe it'll give me a chance to rant to my heart's desire. Maybe I can spread the word and eventually put an end to *insert inspiring sadness of the world here*. So yep. I suppose I should introduce myself, no?

I'm Zandaya, pretty name. I like it, unlike most do with their names. Zan-day-ah. It used to always be spelled right until Zendaya from Disney Channel came around. xD Seems to forever be messed up. I'm twelve-years-old and in the ninth grade. A bit of an age gap? I'm homeschooled. I don't do well in math, I'm still behind there, but otherwise I'm still okay.

People say I look fourteen. I act seventeen on the Internet and probably nine in the real world. I suppose that's another age gap. I live in Florida, central. Right near all the Orlando themeparks, probably one of the only things I like about it. I much prefer the cold. :B I have a dog, a cat, some fish and I used to have way more animals. Sort of grew out of it, I guess. Now it's all the computer! 8D

My personality is considered goofy, silly, random, serious, mature, smart, annoying and hopefully not ignorant or arrogant/spoiled. Those are two traits in people I cannot stand and avoid at all costs. Although I do a good recreation of a spoiled brat.

If I'm on the Internet, I'm most likely on Animal Crossing Community. Either that or I'm doing some of my schooling on the computer. Most likely ACC, though. I love fashion, acting, swimming (competitively!), writing, comics (I write my own) and...computers. I spend most of my free time typing. Typing. Woo-hoo! I'll probably have severe carpal tunnel syndrome when I'm older. Eh...

I am very social, but I get most of it from the Internet since I'm homeschooled and can't be bothered to get up and make friends. Here's my (horrible) friend status in real life, currently...

Lily - She's pretty clueless...she never calls me and I have to call her. I've known her literally my entire life and miss her. But she's a different person now and doesn't seem to like me very much...
Aly - I lost her phone number and she hasn't called me. D; I know where she lives, however.
Alicia - Currently the only friend I see regularly. She's nine and we love to play together. She loves my jokes and really, inspires me.

I guess I'll end this for now...I might add more, later...if I can be bothered...
