Wow, I didn't know this...

Ok, so Manoj had a chess game yesterday, and my dad, like always, went to watch him and there he met a whole bunch of Indians. I'm sure he knew half of them already, but one of them asked him why I wasn't able to teach some kids a dance. Well, my dad replied that I couldn't because of school work (which was true). And the guy goes, "I heard your daughter was a very good dancer and such a good girl. Your children are good at everything. You need to get your daughter to have a chat with our kids and telll them how valuable the Indian culture is to our way of life even in America." Dude, when dad told me that part, I was like, "HA!!! no way is that going to happen. I don't even know all those kids...I can barely talk to a group that I know really well. I'll teach them, but won't talk to them about Indian culture...no way, Jose."

Anyways, so, my dad was telling me that I'm really high in demand in the Indian community...and I don't know why I'm so high in demand...well, at least in most of the Indian communities. Alrities, gotta go and do physics powerpoint. BYE!

Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans

Yes, so I finally had the courage to try them. For those who don't know what Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans (BBEFB) are, let me explain.

BBEFB is a product from Harry Potter. They're basically like Jelly Beans...except for one catch: they have every single flavor, including "spinach, liver, and tripe." Well, that's only in the books. When Harry Potter became a big success, some company started the BBEFB.

I haven't had the courage to try one single one...until Monday. One of my friends (to make it easier, I'm going to refer to her as F1) brought her bag of BBEFB in. One of my other friends (let's call her F2 for now) took the pack to see what types are there. I decided that I'ld try one, so I started looking for a buttered popcorn. But there wasn't a single one in there. So I decided to try a rotten egg, only 'cuz it looked like buttered popcorn, so I really couldn't tell any difference. No difference, that is, until I actually tasted it. Ugh! It was so freaking disgusting!!!!!

So, I guess F2 decided to make me suffer 'cuz she doesn't like "jelly bellies." She started giving me some without telling me what flavor they were. And you want to know what she gave me? Dirt, earthworm, soap, and bacon. I couldn't even eat the soap one 'cuz it started to taste like Ms. LaMell's classroom after she sprays her room with Febreeze. Ugh!!!!

So, I'm never ever going to eat BBEFB again...unless its buttered popcorn! And I'm warning you. Unless you want to throw up (or even feel like it), don't eat the beans...

What the hell!!!

This is so effing retarded!!! Some people...

Ok, so I was in the hospital today, volunteering (yea, I had a heart attack >_o jk). Anyways, I was volunteering like every saturday (unless other plans) and about 10 minutes before my shift ends, this lady calls. She asks me to take a tray to dietary, but I couldn't because I didn't wear any shoes (I was wearing slippers), and the other girls I work with were on runs. So I told the lady that it may take about 5 to 30 minutes (we had a list of people who had called before her) because currently there weren't any volunteers there.. So, she asks me my name and I tell her. About 5 minutes later, she calls back and is like, "I just called a couple minutes ago and you told me that there wasn't anyone there. But when I went to your office, I saw four of you there." So, I get mad and was like, "Excuse me, there's only 3 of us here, and I'm currently unavailable to do anything due to me not wearing shoes. And when you 'came' here, they others were probably looking at what their next run was." And then she's all like, "But you told me that it would take a couple of hours." Then we had a nuh-uh, yea-huh fight over the phone, until finally, she told me that she was going to report this to my supervisor. I was like, "Fine, but I'll tell her what happened and that you can't hear."

Dude, that place is starting to piss me off so bad. You go and help them, but they get all pissed that you didn't do it fast enough. And they're not even grateful that you are taking your time to help them.

ARGHS!!!!

What a day!!!!

Wow, I gotta say, today was a crazy day. Right now, I'm at Sri Uncle's house, 'cuz the guys have their card game. I drove from Indian School and Hayden to Princess Dr and Downing Olson. Whoot for me!!! Anyways, about my day.

We had the mallu picnic today. It was so awesome. I went on the swing for quite a bit of time. I guess you could call me childish, but I stayed on there until, maybe 15 minutes before we had to eat. Then we did this crazy thing, where what you do is hold on to this thing and then you just kinda take your feet off and it moves. Dude, for everyone, the thing moved slowly, but for me, it just whizzed off. And it hurt. So I got off for a while. Then we went to the little metal bridge that I was there, and N and I jumped, while C and V sat in the middle. It was kinda crazy (N, C, and V are some of the kids I did the dance for the India festival with). But then we had to eat. By then, B still hadn't come, and I already knew that Tru, G, and Muns weren't coming so I started to get kinda angry. When she finally did come, I was going to kill her. But, of course, I didn't 'cuz then I wouldn't have anyone to mess with.

Anyways, then the ladies did their lemon-and-spoon race, and 2 aunties won. After that was the little kids' Pick As Many Candies As You Can race. 2 kids I don't know won 1st and 2nd place and the lil Kav won 3rd place. Then we had the game for the bigger kids (but I couldn't stay to watch that). B wouldn't play cricket because "guys we didn't know were playing." Anyways, I know that my bro won that game. After that, there was the couples dance. G chechi and R chetan won, as well as A uncle and R aunty. It was funny to watch my parents though. Anyways, that was fun. Let's see...what else? There was a balloon popping competition. I won that one. It was actually quite funny. I did it with the India Festival dance kids and they forgot I was playing and they would face their back to me and would come quite next to me. I would just jump on their balloon. In the end, it was Chippy, Pinky, and me. Pinky's balloon broke by itself and was able to break Chippy's. Manoj won the lil kids one. Oh, there was also Housey/Tambola. I convinced R chetan to buy 5 tickets, and he won $45 (full house), so he gave me $5 commission :P. That was hilarious. And then he was like, "Here's my agent." lol...crazy fun. So, yea, that was real great. Then we played tug of war. My team won 2 times, B's 2 different teams won 2 times as well. I was with her for the first team, and we won, then the second time, she played and I didn't, so she won with that one. Then she played one side, I played another side, and I won that one!! Ha!!! Then we watched the guys play tug-o-war. Team ABC won twice, but the second time Satheesh uncle said was foul, so they did it again, and Team DEF won that one. So we decided that it was a tie. LOL...I just kinda wish that there were more games for kids my age.

Anyways, will write later. Bye!!
