Wow. yeah, my grandma is karazy. she was actually pretty nice this visit, although that may be cause Beth accidentally hit her in the head as soon as we got there. (I can see how that would really easily happen, short granny + trying to help her close the back of the car) The only time I was really frustrated with her was Monday morning, cause we were going to go out to breakfast, but she wouldn't let us drive anywhere because it was "raining". Ok, this sounds kind of weird, but sometimes in LA if it hasn't rained inawhile the streets get really oily, however a)there had just been a lot of rain on Thursday, and b)it wasn't raining! It was MISTING! I went outside to videotape their backyard, and when I came inside I don't think I was really wet at all. But yeah, then she made Beth and me strip the beds and put new sheets and stuff on the *correct* way. She wanted us to make our dad's bed too, but she ain't getting any double standard past us! Then she decided her and I were going to make pralines, which I didn't even know what they were when I started, and it was really me making them. First she went out for a smoke, then she came in and asked if she could lick the bowl, and then started yelling at me for putting stuff in at the wrong time "NO! Stop! What are you doing?! That doesn't go in yet!" "Grandma, go check the recipe...." yeah, it was interesting... oh yeah, we were watching a vhs, and she asked us to rewind the cd when we were done with it.... other than that though she was alright. It's actually kinda sad, cause the only was she really knows to make people happy is to give them stuff, so we ended up coming home with lots of jewelry. Most from her huge collection of stuff she's made, a little that we made. And Teresa is awesome, and told us a little bit about our grandpa, since the big E won't talk about him. He was a good person who loved to cook, he liked to cook a lot of stuff like chicken, fish, and beef. Not on the grill though, the beef was done on the stove. And he liked lots of different flavours of coffee. I was amazed, I understood almost as much of this particular conversation as Beth. 'twas all in Spanish. hehe. "¿Quieres café?" "No, gracias" "¿Quiered tequila?" And we went to the $.99 cent store, (should be $.99 + tax store) and city walk, and yarn stores, this little random store in a majorly hispanic part of downtown LA (it was really neato) and the La Brea tar pits...I have to say the best part of that trip was the guy playing the banjo in front. Beth even joined the folks doin' the Virginia Reel. I shall take my pics to Citizen's on Sat to get my negatives developed.

The last couple weeks seem like Murphey's law. So many things have gone wrong. I'm tired of ti. I'm also tired of being tired. And majorly tired of school. BLAH. I don't appreciate a certain teacher calling my house because I didn't turn in a rough draft. Which I SAID I would turn in the next day. Seriously, calling my house isn't going to change whether I do it or not. In fact, it'd probly make me want to write it even less... AND I hate writing rough drafts. I so rarely write rough drafts, and I think I need more editing for my history essays, but for english they're always fine without a rough draft. Summmmmmmmerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr................ in some ways I reallllllllllly realllllllly realllllllllllllllly wish I was graduating this year. But then, I'm also not particularly ready for college. Lose lose situation, eh? And I think there might be something wrong with my camera, but I won't really be able to tell until I get the CA pics developed. If there is, I think duct tape will be suficiente, although it probly wouldn't be good for the camera, but if something's wrong with it anyway, who cares? AND on Saturday I get to go to the DMV. To get my license? HA. HA. No, to get a ew permit. Mine expired a week or so ago. blahhhhhhhhhh. Why can't school be over yet? Please please please end soon. Oh school how I despise thee right now. All I have to say, is I'm glad I'm not testing in anything IB. Although SATs are in a few weeks.

hehe, I am now Officially invited to graduation, by Michelle. That's going to be really hard, to watch all the seniors graduate.
