Finally, the day has come. The day where Jesus rose from the dead and we celebrate with rabbits breaking and entering into our homes leaving rabbit droppings or chocolate for your kids..
Again, how a Christian celebration and a German pagan tradition coincide with one another to create a huge American excuse to mass produce chocolate, I'll never know. But hell with it. We don't question these things and just go with it no matter how weird it is. We never question Jesus's birth and a fat Nordic guy going into your home and putting presents in your socks so why should we question Easter?
Well anyway, my start to my spring break has been nothing but laziness though I should be getting my homework out of the way so I don't procrastinate like an idiot. Also we're getting in hardwood floors which is gonna be fun so we don't have to do much vacuuming downstairs.
As for fun stuff, today we're going to a friend's house for dinner and game night and by this week I hope to finish Mockingjay and some stories I'm working on. Wish me luck!

It's good to be the king
It's finally Thursday and the start of Spring Break since we get Good Friday off. Ten days of laziness.. and homework.. Ugh I have insane teachers don't I? Not to mention we have STAR testing the week we get back so that's not gonna build up any stress. But I digress so I won't have to think about school anymore.
Since my family's not the regular church going type, likely chances say we'll spend Easter at home or at a friend's house with other friends. Oh and it's my sister's 18th birthday this Saturday AKA Passover. See if this year wasn't a leap year, then my sister's birthday would be on Good Friday. That reminds me that my friend Raven's birthday is exactly on Good Friday. What a small world we live in huh?
As for Spring Break, besides the homework, I don't have much to do so I may plan a movie night or some sort of get together with friends.
As for the rest of my life, not much updates on Sierra Lamar other than she's still missing. There was a report of the finding of handcuffs and used condoms found but they could have no relevance to the case seeing as how they were found in a place where teens usually hang out and do that sort of crap. Now that's not gonna freak out anyone at all. Well done reporters!
Anyway, they moved the search down south to San Martin and Gilroy since they've literally scoped most if not all of Morgan Hill. God, I just can't help but to think what's happening to Sierra as I'm typing right now. Tomorrow it'll be three weeks since she went missing. Is she dead? Almost dead? Being raped? Forced into prostitution? I don't want to sound so melancholy but it's pretty rare when a kidnapper keeps their victim and anything could have happened to her with the limited evidence found.. I pray she's safe and will come home soon.. and not in a body bag.

Happy Zombie Jesus Day!
Or as you "normal" people call it, Happy Easter.
One of the holidays in the year that doesn't make sense where we celebrate Jesus going zombie and bunnies leaving colored eggs made of chocolate and their own rabbit brothers that have randomly turned into chocolate. Just make sure your kids are actually eating chocolate and not those weird circular brown droppings that smell funny.
So for today we invited a bunch of friends over for a barbecue. Food, alcohol, and Discovery Fit & Health channel all afternoon. Fun stuff. And I'm getting tired.
And now we're watching Cleopatra.... And singing Veggietales.
XOXO,

*explosion*
FINALLY! It's Spring Break! And yes California's weird cause they have their spring breaks in late April instead of late March. I've really needed a vacation after STAR testing stupidity.
Our last two days of testing were pretty easy. Just Math and Biology. No biggie. Though it was pointless to have school today when we just had two days of tiring block schedule and testing. And teachers giving homework over vacation? I mean what the heck's with that? We all deserve a break from thinking hard and trying to get good grades. Give our brains a rest. The only homework I got was from English, Geometry, and Spanish. English and Geometry were done in class. Spanish, I have to do a video so of course I gotta do it over break.
Biology, we started watching a video called The Miracle of Life. Yes the same video they show in high school of a baby being born. Fun stuff. We haven't gotten to the part where the baby's been born due to a short class but we gotta continue it when we get back. Not gonna look forward to that but am looking forward to the people around me squealing like girls. Hahahaha.
So for my Easter weekend/spring break I have no idea what I'll be doing. My mom did say something about going out to Monterey Beach or something. But other than that nothing I can really think of now.
XOXO,
