Things have gotten so busy all of a sudden...

Ok, so last week was hectic, and this week will be even more hectic! Oh no....

Well, on Thursday, we took a tedious drive up to Nashville and that was kind of disastrous in terms of I didn't drive very well -- I sort of fell asleep, (but I'll never admit that to my parents! -- though they know...), and swerved. One time on the road we went to get gas, but we were at a stop sign. My mom decided that the time was right to go ahead into the ongoing traffic because there were no cars (technically). But then all of a sudden a really fast car zoomed down the road. We blocked it and slowed it down. Then we drove into the gas station and she followed us in, and then subsequently yelled at us for making her slow down -- I think her exact words were, 'THERE'S A STOP SIGN FOR A REASON!' But we didn't do anything wrong.

Friday was shopping/moving in day. So that's basically what we did. My room was surprisingly small the first time I saw it. The shock nearly killed me! But then we made it cozy and it looks strangely spacious. And everything fits in fine -- my record player, stereo, tv, vcr, and Super Nintendo. It's snazzy -- that's a weird word, if it is even a word! I saw Daniel, Charlie and Asmitha again so that made me very happy but sad at the same time. Because everybody will be so busy and Daniel is leaving.... and also I forgot to bring my tattoos to share with everybody...

Saturday came around, and my whole family moped around in the hotel room, taking intermittent naps while watching Rhythmic Gymnastics (so boring....). Sam came near the end of the day and I met his aunt and cousin. Then we sent them off, and I showed him around my room. He was impressed. Ha ha - I win!! And we went to dinner with my parents. Then my parents and I headed off to the grocery store to buy milk and other essential foods, though I have too much food in my fridge, which is always a problem when my parents drive me up.

Sunday was not really eventful. Well I guess Sam and I got hamburgers, so that made him very happy. Then we had a radio station meeting sometime, which made me nervous because talking in front of big crowds is not my thing. I can talk to one person at a time or even three or four, but over that, I can't do it. We had dinner with Charlie and Daniel, which was nice. And at the restaurant they gave me a heaping bowl of rice, which I could not really finish. Then Charlie showed us around his place, which was really nice, and he had a very large living room, which Sam rolled around on for 2 hours. We all watched the closing ceremonies. All I can do is shake my head. I don't even know what to think about London's performance. I mean it's difficult to compete with a Totalitarian regime (China is definitely not what it says it is), but you have to be more creative than dancing with umbrellas and getting Jimmy Page to show up. And Mr. Page's performance was quite funny -- he reminded me of a classmate in Kindergarten who tried to kiss all the girls but had really poor aim because he would just run around with his eyes closed and lips pursed. He was crazy. I really wonder what happened to him.

Then Monday was class time, which was very much less than enthused for me. And a meeting thrown in there... And something else happened, I'm not really sure... It is kind of dumb to start off school on a Monday, at least do it on a Wednesday.

So that about sums up my past activities for the last few days... I hope this week ends soon because there are too many things going on. Arg.
