Ok, wow. I didn't know it had been over 2 months.

I've been doing lots of things over the past two months, which is why I haven't been blogging or reading blogs. I know that's a horrible reason, but today I will write a blog and catch up on reading everyone else's blogs. BLOG BLOG BLOG. I'll just jump right into it then.

Nothing interesting really happened in October. On Halloween I went to my friend Jessica's house and we saw Where the Wild Things are and our only reaction to it was, "Wow...What?...That was weird..." She isn't allowed to go trick or treating or do anything of that sort on halloween, and my other friends were having a huge party and were going to watch scary movies. I'm not that great in scary movies, so Jessica and I decided we'd hang out on halloween. It was fun. How weird is it that I'm writing about Halloween in DECEMBER?

November was NaNoWriMo and apparently it was also give-as-many-tests-and-quizzes-and-projects-as-you-possibly-can-so-students-cannot-have-a-social-life-or-attempt-to-write-a-novel month to the teachers. I started the novel out great in the first week, despite changing my entire story line the day before November. However, the second week was filled with tests along with the third week, so I had no time to write. By the fourth week I was so far behind and disconnected from my novel that I didn't even know where it was going, so I just gave up. Thanksgiving was quite mundane. We went to our cousin's house in coral springs and ate then left. Same food, same everything.

At the end of November, my Uncle Baz and Auntie Lynn came down from England. It was so awesome to see them because the last time I saw them was about three years ago. A couple of my friends met them and my friends were in awe that they were meeting REAL british people with ACCENTS. It was quite funny.

That brings us to December. In the first week our school put on this english medieval feast and show that combined drama, orchestra, and the choir, called Madrigal. My Aunt and Uncle came, and they enjoyed it. The room where we, the orchestra, played had horrible acoustics, so we probably sounded awful. And I, being the awesome cellist I am, was last chair. Apparently no one could see me, which I found quite funny. After the orchestra played, which was fairly early on, we could leave. Since my family was eating at the madrigal thing, they had to stay the whole time, and since Alex was a mime, she had to preform the whole time. So I ordered a pizza and shared it with some of my dorkestra friends. Then we had to do all that the next night, and then we were done.

Fast forward a couple days, and my aunt and uncle eventually had to fly back to Evesham, which was really sad. I miss them, but hopefully Alex and I get to go to England in the near future to see the rest of the family.

Last weekend, I think it was last weekend, I got a new guitar. I've played for about 3 years, and my old one needed to get fixed. My mom decided she would get my a new one for Christmas and we'd fix my old one and give it to Alex, because she just recently expressed an interest in playing. "Why did your mom give it to you last week when you said she was getting it as a Christmas present?" you ask. Well, my mom didn't know which one to get me, and she wanted to make sure she got the right stuff for it, so I went to Sam Ash with her and we picked one out. It's a black acoustic-electric Ibanez AEG10E. It's pretty awesome.

I think that about covers everything worth mentioning. I'm really sorry for being away for so incredibly long. Now I'm going to catch up reading everyone else's blogs.

DFTBA! (like I did for the past two months)
