(WARNING, CONTAINS RANTING AND RAVING. PROCEED AT YOU OWN RISK)
I hate dentists. It is just to awkward. Where do you look. And trust me, that is not a question you ask my mom. You will be wonderng at her weird respouns. Not that many people stare at their dentist's stomachs.
Who said spring weather is sunny, because their wrong. It is not sunny. It is gray and gloomy and all in all, depressing. And to make it better (That was sarcasm) the clouds can't decide if their going to rain or not, so you get half rain and then sun and then fog and if you're like me, snow! It just isn't right.
I started writing this post with somthing in mind but now I have forgotten (oh no, am I getting old?) what i was thinking about.
What I should be doing now is writting my spanish prayer but I can't find the site that helps me pronounce the words so I am on this blog, ranting about it. Oh my poor non-existing readers, the things you put up with. Hmmm.... Maybe that's why I have no readers. Or maybe its because I don't update constistly. Or maybe its because....I don't know.
So, have I bore you/ freaked you out yet? Because I don't know what other reactions I would get from this post. I am typing super fast. I heard from somewhere (porbably a book) that if you just type random things you'll think of what to write for your story or in my case, speech and prayer. Its not work but hey, you got a little peek into my brain. Now you can believe me when I say its a scary place.
Signing off

Ugh, go away Thorn!

Speechs,Spanish and Math, Oh My
Who excactly thought it would be a good idea for ^these^ subjects? Spanish is okay, sorta, but am I going to use it...Nooooooooo. Speech would be fine if picking subjects were easier.
Don't even get me started on math. I think my sister, Grace, got all the number skills. Its not so bad once you understand it but it takes me a long time to get it. And when my sisters try to explain make it harder.
I'm okay with English. I would say its my favorite subject but that doesn't mean I'm really good at it. I stink at Grammar. Its so confusing. All of school is confusing... But, hey, at least I don't have to deal with girls complaining about boyfriends. Yet.....

Wii Skills (Or not...)
(WARNING: THIS MAY CONTAIN FABRICATIONS AND EXAGGERATIONS. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK)
So this Christmas, as a family, we got a Wii. We also got three games: Wii Resort, Wii Sports and Mario Kart. After all our gifts were open, we rushed to set it up. After a few mishaps, cat fights and exploding cords (just kidding :] ) we settled on the couch to do the 'easy' task of making miis. It went well, besides a few problems. I got to pick what we played first. I, naturally, choose Wii Resort, the only one I was good at. It was smooth sailing from there.
Not. On our first attempts the disk was inserted backwards. For the longest time we couldn't figure out what was the matter. Then some brilliant person (We forgot who but I'm pretty sure it was me) pointed out that the disk was in wrong. I fixed that and we got started on our 'easy and fun-filled experience with the Wii.' NOT.
For starters, the wii was picking up the signal from our remotes and when it did, it went cra-zy! Then we found out that some of the games we wanted to play were one-player games. And when we did pick a game (canoeing) I stunk at it. I lost all four rounds. But that's okay because next we played sword fight and I WON! No, I am not bragging...well, maybe a little... Anyways, after I played against everyone (and won) we played basketball.
Once again, I stunk. My ball never went close to the hoop, much less in it. So I just read while they played that game.
After awhile, Grace and Chosen were tired of Wii resort. So they voted to play Mario Kart. How to describe it? Or better ye,t how to describe my performance? One word.
Wow.
Not wow as in: "Wow, she's so good!" It was more along the lines of : "Wow, how do you do so bad?" Needless to say, I lost every single race. So I handed my remote to my mom (and its sad when the person who doesn't even know how to hold the remote is better than you...) and went upstairs. No, not to pout. You guys have a really low opinion of me.... Thanks
As I was saying, I went upstairs and got the Iphone. Just to use as a Ipod. And I played wicked-cool music, such as Mission Impossible, Real Gone (from Cars) a lot of NewsBoy's songs...Basically a bunch of cool, fast music. It was a lots of fun! Then we crashed from all the sugar we had eaten.....
All in all, it was fun.....

For Want of a Nail
For want of a nail, the shoe was lost
For want of a shoe, the horse was lost
For want of a horse, the rider was lost
For want of a rider, the message was lost
For want of the message, the battle was lost
For want of the battle, the war was lost
For want of the war, the kingdom was lost
And all for want of a nail.
For want of a rider, the message was lost
For want of the message, the battle was lost
For want of the battle, the war was lost
For want of the war, the kingdom was lost
And all for want of a nail.

Narnia-Voyage of the Dawn Treader (Warning, Spoiler)
For those of you who really know, you know that I am a huge Narnia fan. I own all seven books and have watched the first two movies many times over. Recently the third movie, Voyage of the Dawn Treader, came out.
We went to see the movie as soon as we could. All the family went and my cousin , Jacob, went too. We saw it in 3-D and really enjoyed it. It wasn't all we thought it would be but if you hadn't read the book, it was a really good movie. The acting was exceptional, as I had come to expect. It kinda gave me a headache watching it in 3-D but it was still good.
Some of my favorite characters were in this movie, such as Rhinc, the dufflepuds and a boy name Eustace Scrubb (and he almost deserved it). There was also old character that returned. Lucy and Edmund Pevensie, Reepicheep , Caspian and ,of course, Aslan.
The whole movie, and book, are based on the concept of temptation. In the book it takes a less obvious form. It comes in the form of greed and appears over and over, at the golden pool, the dragon's cave and the black island. In the movie it takes the form of a mysterious green form. This form creeps over the ocean and demeans sacrifices of human slaves from the lone islands. The crew of the Dawn Treader vow to set the people free.At the same time still trying to complete their first mission, which was to find the seven lords of Narnia.
I am trying not to spoil the movie to much, so I'm going to skip some parts. Anyways...Later on they find that their two quest are intertwined. They set out for the black island. The black island stands for dreams, not day-dreams, but dreams, nightmares. In the movie, the green mist comes from the black island. You can't let it know your deepest fears, for that's what it will become. Edmund makes the mistake of think of a sea serpent and the mist takes that form.
After a big battle they beat the serpent and distroy the island and the mist. They find the hunam who were sacrifaced, safe and unharmed. The Dawn Treader sails on to the utter east, which is romoured to hold Aslan's country. They reach the edge of the world (Narnia is a flat world, not round like ours) There they met Aslan. He tells the travelers (Caspian, Reepicheep,) that they may enter His country but once their in there they may not return. Caspain almost goes but last mintue he stops, saying that his father would not be proud if he choose to enter now. Reepicheep has no such thoughts and he hoops into a little boat andsails right up and into Aslan's coutry.
Alsan then turns to Eustace, Edmund and Lucy. He says its time for them to return to their world. Lucy starts to cry, for she understands that she and Edmund wouldn't be return to Narnia again. Aslan says that Eustace might return, which leads up t the next movie, The Silver Chair.
