Sign language, cheese cake, Bruno Mars and more!


Hello, loves!

I honestly wasn't sure if I was going to write anymore the rest of this week, considering I will probably only write on weekdays and I wasn't sure if I would have anything to say.
However, I received a comment from someone telling me to keep writing because they loved my writing (made my day by the way, so thank you!). So today, I'll just tell you what's been going on the past two days!
Wednesday night, I was at church and my friend told me about how she learned the chorus to "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift in ASL (American Sign Language). She taught me it, and because the chorus and basically the same thing over and over again, I picked it up pretty quickly (I think just about anybody can pick up two sentences pretty easily though...). So, naturally, being the over-achiever-in-things-that-don't-actually-help-me-in-anyway that I am, I had to learn the whole song. So when I got home from school at noon yesterday, instead doing my online assignments, I spent about an hour and a half learning the song. I can't do it all with the lyrics yet, because it's so fast, but I can do a lot of it. Even though I know I will probably never need to sign that song to anyone (considering I'll be getting a cat instead of a husband until I'm like 30), it was still a lot of fun to learn. So now I've been obsessed with sign language. I'm on this kick with it, so I downloaded every (free) app with sign language tools. (I don't really know how those are going to help me though, because they're all like "Baby's First Signs!". But hey, ain't nobody got money for apps!) Then, I was like "Yeah! I'm gonna take a sign language class in college (Uni for my European friends out there) and then I'll be able to speak English, French, and Sign Language!". I know this isn't going to happen. I'm going to keep learning songs, though, until I get bored with it!


I've also recently got obsessed with Bruno Mars and drinking things out of a mug. Specifically "When I Was Your Man" (the next song I want to learn in ASL) and "Natalie". I think he sounds a lot like Michael Jackson in "When I Was Your Man" and I think "Natalie" sounds similar to "Valerie" by Amy Winehouse (obviously not his voice, I just think they have similar tunes). As for the mug thing, I don't know why, maybe it's my obsession with British people and the UK, but I've just put everything in my Tinker Bell mug. Maybe it's the mug itself. I'm in love with the mug, I wanted it for over a year before I actually got it, I had to buy it at Disney and didn't get to go back and get it from the first time until a year later. It's a huge mug too, so when I poor my soda into it, it looks like nothing and I drink it really fast. Then I have to get two sodas. Diabetes here I come!


On another note, I wore a dress to school today! Why is this important in any way, you ask? I've worn a dress to school a total of four times (not including today). Three times in the fifth grade because twice I was receiving awards and had to dress up all fancy, and once for our fifth grade banquet (this is year six for the Brits). The fourth time was for my eighth grade (year nine) banquet. Why did you wear a dress today then Abby? I will tell you why. My original plan had been to wear my normal, typical ensemble on Valentines day and then wear a dress the next day to throw everyone off. Unfortunately, to my disappointment, it was way too cold to wear a dress on February 15th, so that wasn't happening. Today though, a man was coming to let my choir class know about a fundraiser we're having selling cheese cake. Now, the thing about me, is I'm very much like a guy in the way that "the way to my heart is through my stomach". (Sometimes I feel like a guy with lady parts. Thanks for all my brothers Mom and Dad!) This guy was bringing CHEESE CAKE SAMPLES. I was so excited for today. I had been waiting all week for this guy. I literally got up like 15 minutes earlier than I normally do. I was determined to win this guy over so I could get more cheese cake samples than everyone else. (Is that prostitution? Whoops....) Anyways, I got into the choir room and I was excited. I mean like, jumping around being more hyper than normal excited. HE WASN'T IN THE ROOM WHEN I GOT THERE. My face fell faster than the apple that hit Isaac Newton's head, let me tell you. I was so stinking disappointed. So, blinking through my tears (this is not an exaggeration. I LOVE cake.) I asked my teacher where he was. She was all like "I don't know, he was supposed to be here!". By that time, the tears were about to fall. I had been so excited for it. I even wore a DRESS. Then, she was like "But he could still come!". So naturally, I was back to being excited again. So finally the guy gets there and he handed out the samples after explaining to us how the fundraiser was going to work (the cake was AMAZING by the way) and there was some extra. This was where the dress and winning him over comes in right? Yeah, I thought so, too. I was like "I want some more! Please give me some more. I'll love you forever." AND HE GOES STRAIGHT FOR THE SECOND ROW. I'M IN THE FIRST ROW. HE GAVE SOME TO ALL THE GIRLS IN SHORT SHORTS. I was so upset.



We know what he looks for now, though.
*Sigh*
