bad news

the fishtons are dead. the fish tank gadget broke and whoever created the gadget didn't fix it. so now it just shows up as an error. Blogger recommends I remove the gadget, but Blogger just doesn't understand. I need time to grieve. is there a virtual toilet gadget I can flush my virtual fish down?? :(

the bug is gone

I was in the gym yesterday and there was a really big bug (horsefly I think maybe???) and I was going to kill it because it kept buzzing around my feet but I didn't want anyone to see me kill it (I don't know why I didn't want anyone to see me kill it, probably guilt or something) so I waited for a while and it kept buzzing near my feet. Finally, there was a point where no one was talking to or looking at me so I looked down to step on the bug but it had disappeared. And me being the person I am, I started singing "it's gone daddy gone, the bug is gone, yeah it's gone daddy gone, the bug has flown away" but I did it really quietly because I didn't want anyone to hear me because how embarrassing would that have been??? But then I was kind of disappointed because it was really funny to me at the time (the violent femmes singing a song about a horsefly would be kind of funny would it not?) and no one else heard or appreciated what happened so now I'm ...

the funniest thing to happen to me pretty much ever

This happened over a month ago, but I have no written documentation of it, so here it is. Mom and I were out running errands and were planning on watching a movie when we got home. We stopped at Steak 'n' Shake on the way home to get milkshakes.  We pull up and Mom asks what I want, and I tell her a strawberry shake. She starts looking at the board in the drive-thru to see if there's a specific name for it that she needs to tell him (you know how some restaurants have weird names for their meals/entrees.) She sees the words "strawberry shake" on the board, but there are two words right above it in smaller print that she can't quite see (neither of us was wearing our glasses.)  As we're trying to figure out what it says, the lady in the drive-thru pipes up and says to order when we're ready. Mom didn't wanna just idly sit there, so she panics and tries to say "Sorry, I can't read what's written above the strawberry shake. Is ther...

Hurricane Matthew. Yaaayyy.

Wow, has it really been almost a year? Dang. (I still can't drive, though. lol.) As of now, we're prepping for our dear old friend Matthew to come by and visit us. We have plenty of water, flashlights, spare batteries, and...Pokeballs. My mom and grandma have recently gotten really into Pokemon Go. So this morning, my grandparents drove around our area getting Pokeballs/Razz Berries/Eggs, etc etc etc, to last them through the storm, and they took Greyson and me with them. Interesting priorities there. Because we will probably be without power for at least tonight and tomorrow (and possibly through the weekend/into Monday) I am attempting to get as much schoolwork done today as I possibly can. We didn't evacuate because our building is pretty safe and we don't think we'll sustain any damage, but basically all of Cocoa Beach/Merritt Island is deserted. A few of my friends' families elected to stay on the island because...yolo? One of them even decided to go s...

Wise words

Last night my little brother and I stayed up really late; I was watching him play Rainbow 6 Siege. I was kind of falling asleep and he started singing to himself (just nonsense stuff, not an actual song) and I started paying attention and caught the last four lines of his made up song: "When life gives you lemons You pucker your lips Because they are sour And that's all you can do." Beautiful. 

New friends

So. I don't get out much. But recently I went on vacation. AND I MADE SOME FRICK-FRACKIN' AMAZING FRIENDS. I've kept in touch with 'em. I miss 'em. Anyway yeah. That's all.

please read omg

I am seriously cringing at 95% of what is posted on my blog. What am I even thinking half the time? Ew. Disregard anything I wrote before now. Also, not really liking the Fishtons-themed background, ja feel? Might change it to something a little more...patriotic. :))))))) AND I might take the Fishtons down for a bit. Give them a break. Maybe add something new? Idk, what do you guys think? (not that anyone will actually tELL ME) Anywho. Recently I've been drawing a lot. I only draw ANIMATED video game/TV/movie characters, so if you have any requests that are NOT real-life, feel free to comment. You probably won't, though. Who even reads my blog? :))))) -sopharini
