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.

Bye Bye Vacation
So I start school up again on Monday. Didn't do much during vacation. Just played Pokemon White, watched T.V, this and that. Went out to Monterey yesterday but didn't do much. Just drove around, had lunch, and bought some shoes for my grandmother. I did come across a Plato's Closet and did some browsing. Only got two shirts and a pair of Capris though. I definently need to fill my closet and drawers with more summer-y clothes cause they're loaded with jeans and old shirts. Hopefully I'll get some time either tonight or tomorrow to go out to the mall.
Out of all my teachers, my Spanish teacher gives homework over break. We had to either do a video or make a poster and present a recipe of anything, obviously, in Spanish. I'm in Spanish 2 as of now and plan to continue taking it throughout the rest of my high school years... Well to Spanish 4 AP if possible. Hahaha. It's pretty convenient cause since my mom married my step-dad, Isaac, I'm with a lot of Spanish speaking relatives and friends. I still get nervous when someone speaks to me in Spanish. Heheheh. It's kinda like all the knowledge I have in Spanish goes out my brain. Oh well. I'm still learning and maybe I'll be able to speak it outside of the classroom and project videos soon.
Yesterday I went to a friend's house with my family and had dinner with a bunch of friends. It's really fun sharing stories with adults. It was kinda sad though that I revealed that the Cookie Monster was changed into the Vegetable Monster when two girls were coloring in a Sesame Street coloring book. I was a bit shocked myself when I found that out just a couple years ago. I mean it's not a T.V show's fault that children are obese. When you think about it, the parents are the ones that provide them unhealthy food. Not that it's bad but when you buy your kids fast food almost every day then that's just pushing it. I still eat fast food but only once or twice every two or three weeks. Stuff like McDonald's and Burger King isn't food that's supposed to be a daily meal cause it's not healthy. Most meals families have should be homemade. It's healthy and delicious.
That was my little outlook on life moment. I'm gonna finish watching Matilda and enjoying the smell of my mom cooking.
XOXO,

Obsession with J-Pop
J-pop: Japanese pop music which is really awesome! With me being bored at home I have nothing else to do but get obsessed.
Day one of vacation. Good Friday. Did absolutely nothing but watch T.V, play around on Facebook, text, and play Pokemon. Kinda gonna be bored with it being Easter and friends doing possible religious stuff for the weekend. Hopefully I'll be going out with a friend or two during the week.
Oh and today me and my sister, Marina, accidentally drugged up our cat, Kline. We were giving him his first bath ever since we got him and he was already freaking out. He jumped out of the sink three times and was "meowing" loudly. I use quotes due to the fact he sounded like a gremlin. So we used dog shampoo on Kline cause Marina figured it wouldn't cause any harm to him. Keep this in mind: it's lavender and mint dog shampoo. So once we start lathering him up with it, he starts tripping like there's no tomorrow. Jumped out of the sink two more times until we rinsed off all the soap. And afterwards he was just avoiding us and hid under Marina's bed. So I'm telling my mom all of this via texting and she said the cat was freaking out because he was stoned. So it was then me and Marina learned that mint makes cats trip and to read labels before possibly drugging your cat. That was an eventful day. At least he smells nice.
Also did some spring cleaning today as well. Found some old stuff. Did a bit of rearranging. And Marina let me take some books of hers that she wasn't reading anymore so I have a nice little book collection I gotta get through. Hahahaha.
And I saw on the news of Lindsay Lohan going to jail and rehab for the third time. It's like, are you setting a record here or just proving that rehab doesn't do crap Lohan? I blame childhood fame for it. Britney Spears was part of the Mickey Mouse Club and look at her. Once was a really famous pop singer and now she's back trying way too hard. Sorry Britney.
And Miley Cyrus. Who can forget the ordeal a few years ago with her song "Can't be Tamed"? Boy did people go ballistic. Same thing happened with Britney. She's not gonna do Disney forever. Let's just hope she doesn't end up having her career spiral into the toilet.
Let's face it. Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake are the only members of the Mickey Mouse Club whose lives are perfectly fine. Because they didn't let the fame go to their heads. Just saying.
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.
