Halloween

I guess today is Halloween. Kind of. Halloween just ISN'T Halloween with out all of the candy. Confused?
You should be.
Because we had Halloween on Thursday! Because there was a game
yesterday and a game today! So I trick-or-treated on October 29th.

OCTOBER 29TH.

Now that, my friends, is all wrong. =(
Changing the subject. I was going to be punked out Tinkerbell but with last minute changes (not to mention, saving some moolah) me and Vicky were "Wacko Sisters"! What is that, you ask? Honestly, I don't know. We wore oversized sunglasses, pajama bottoms, and
neon make up. We were so stupid, crazy and nerd looking! Well, actually. Vicky, somehow, I don't know how managed to look adorable. I, on the other hand - some mess you don't want to talk about. Just kidding! Big THANKS to mom for doing make up and
Vicky for giving me and awesome night of Thursday! No, not as much candy as last year but hey, whatever. Later peeps!

Pumpkin Patch

On Sunday, we went to a pumpkin patch in a town nearby.
The pumpkin patch was horrible! The pumpkins were all green, small
or smashed so we just had to shop where they had all of their good pumpkins
for display. I carved them all in about 2 hours! Record timing!

Here are some pictures of them.

OBLIVION

I went on this roller coaster!
click here to see an on-ride video of it
Still gives me the creeps. This video doesn't explain how scary it was =)
Especially when you thought it would be like any other roller coaster and
didn't even think to see what it does BEFORE getting on it. Talk about
SHAKIN' IN YOUR BOOTS!

Louie's

To celebrate Vicky's birthday we went to Louie's! She really wanted to go to an amusement park with Reagan and I -but, hey, I will go to Louie's any day! It was my second time to go there,same as for Vicky. We had been there once before, together. The reason we didn't get to go to the roller coasters is because Reagan's cousin's birthday was this weekend, and we just couldn't do it without her. I got Vicky a really cute blanket from PINK which I KNOW
she loved =) And some of the other presents from her family are Ralph Lauren spritz and perfume, a COACH purse and wallet (but she is returning the purse because she doesn't like it. She was hoping for a laptop, or at least something else!), and other cute things, like those beads you hang on your door. But she isn't going to keep those either because of the noise =( Poor girl, she looked so disappointed today but I guess she was just expecting a little bit too much. The wait at Louie's took forever because it's so busy, considering it's Friday night, and not to mention our order's took a while too. Coral, Vicky's mom, saw some old friends passing by so another 45 minutes of time at the restaurant. Vicky kept moaning
"Now it's my mom's birthday!". I felt bad, so I suggested we hang out in the bathroom and throw soap bubbles at each other, but obviously that didn't last long.

Well, like I said she loved my present and tomorrow her mom is taking her to the city to have a little birthday shopping =D It's fun, I know that for sure, because the last couple years I have been dissing the birthday parties and hanging and shopping with my mommy. =D
I can't go with Vicky though, because I have volleyball in the morning and two art classes that go through the afternoon until evening. Plus, on Sunday while her family is having a little family get-together, my family is going to a pumpkin patch! I have only been to
a patch once, and I am super excited. I am going to carve the pumpkins again
this year just like last year!

I had lots of fun! Now I can't wait until my birthday =D
Today was also Field Day, where we do a lot of activities and we ALSO elected some people to be a mayor for our "town" that our class is going on a field trip to. We get to apply for jobs, write checks, and earn cash and Vicky is runner-up. I didn't want to be mayor, because you have to do a speech and what not but I am helping Vicky with her campaign. Reagan is in it too, but she already has a a campaign going, and we aren't in the same class so that would be a little challenge.

Bye everyone! Off to bedy-byes!

Reagan M.

My friend, Vicky, has had her post spotlight but everybody needs
a little fame. I am going to tell you about my friend Reagan.

She is the most beautiful, confident person. Sometimes she goes
down on herself, but me and Vicky are there for her.

She is funny, and every time you need advice there you have
Dr.Phil, right next to your side!

Promises? She NEVER breaks them. You can tell her the deepest, and
darkest ones.

We haven't gotten to go to eachother's house yet, but we will
hopefully =)

This year, we are not in the same class but that doesn't stop
that girl!

Anything and everything you could ask for - not to mention
she cool with the guys. Perf when your in a major boy prob!

Helps you through the most horrible sitches. And if she is
scared, she doesn't show it.

Obviously, I am making you guys jealous. But she is all mine =D
Vicky, Zoe, and Reagan. We are a threesome and always will be =)

Three Muskys

Hello all!
I am all pepped and cheered up because of my two awesome girlys!
The ones who always help me through things, and touch sitches.
Let's give a round of applause to

REAGAN AND VICKY!

Here are some of the best qualities of each of them

Reagan

*is the most outgoing person you have ever met!
*has the best advice on hand
*can make you laugh, when you want to cry
*confident and awesome

Vicky

*is the hippest fashionista on the block
*is there for you when you need help
*always had some cheesy jokes up her sleeve
*knows exactly what to say

Now, these are just SOME of the many amazing things
my friends are. Too many to list, say, or name.

If Reagan or Vicky is reading this I just want to say thanks.
For being the best friends a girly could EVER have.

Flamingo Pinata and Mono-typing

Do you guys remember my post about mono-typing, from last year?
This year I have some pictures to show off my skills!
Plus, I took a pinata class with Vicky and she made the Jewish flag
and I made a Flamingo! She is being smart, and using her's as part
of her presentation. Me, on the other hand, decided to put confetti and candy
in it, have a big party, and whack it on New Year's Eve! I am uber excited
for too much grande things -

1. In honor of my friend, I will say this reason first.
IN THREE DAYS IT'S VICKY'S BIRTHDAY! YEE-HA!

2. Soon I get to go on a very awesome trip!
I even get to see the Hollywood sign! OMG, right?

Here is my fave picture out of all of my mono-typing creations











And here is my Flamingo, which I named Splatter





















I hope you enjoy my super weird day! Plus, I have to do my book report
tomorrow :(
Everybody wish me bunches of luck! Gonna need it!

Daddy's Birthday

Hi! Guess what? It's that time of the year again -
where my blog is filled with posts from Halloween, Thanksgiving,
birthdays, Christmas, Hanukkah and getting the groove of back to school.
Not to mention, Fall Break! Today is my awesome daddy's birthday. I sent
him a cute little e-card (shh! don't tell!) and I am planning to
buy him a cool present (I wasn't procrastinating. I didn't forget.
I have been busy, that's all =]) I was reading an article that dads
don't like homemade gifts as much as moms. Well too bad dad.
Homemade on it's way! Speaking of which, I am going to give you
guys a very cute, little craft to do. It's really easy and you don't need
much materials. I'll post it later, because it's more of a Mother's Day gift,
or overall just more of a girl thing. Anyways, I am planning on buying
him at least one thing but homemade is really my thing. My signiture
collection ZK & CO is hitting the top of the charts! Kind of. Anyways.
I'm sure I'll think of something! And for the occasion, we might get
to go out to eat but lately we have been limiting going out because

1. Home-cooked meals are the best!
2. It's usually healthier to eat at home
2. It also saves us a lot of money

Speaking of money, my BFF is obsessed over saving it!
She has this blog devoted to coupons, it's the cutest little
thing I have ever seen =)

Pictures of Fishy

As I was putting labels on my posts, I saw about 4 posts saying
"I will put pics of Wrigley on! Promise!". But I guess never got around
to it. So here are some pictures of Wrigley for you!







He is a beta, a pretty little guy. You can't really tell in the picture but he is Red, blue and and white/silver. Those are the Chicago Cubs colors! That is
why we named him Wrigley, because that is the Cubs' baseball field.

GIRLSCOUT SLEEPOVER

Fun, fun, fun!
WOW who knew girls and scouts could be such and AWESOME combo?
So the night started off with me feeling not-so-well. Feeling guilty for all fellow
members, having to dread the sleepover without me, I took a rest and had my
dad take me back to girl scouts. When I got there they were finishing their
pizza (they made it themselves! How cool!) we wrote in our cute new journals,
and then painted our nails and did our hair. My friends helped make braid -
not the cutest, but I was going to take them out in the morning anyways-
my hair so it would be cute and wavy the next day. Also, I learned how to make
this very cool key chain. I forgot what it was called, it is pretty much weaving with
craft string. Then today, SOMEBODY'S cell phone woke all of up at around 5:00
in the morning, and front here we couldn't get back tot sleep. So we started on the
breakfast. Omelets, bacon, donuts, fruit, toast. Yummmm. Unfortunately,
I wanted tomato on my omelet but we either lost it or the person responsible
for bringing it forgot it. I don't know what happened, but all-in-all that
is the only down side to my day. We took lots of pictures and funny videos!
I might be able to post some on later! Also, we got to go to the courthouse because
Grace's, one of the troop members and awesome friend, mom is a lawyer. We didn't
get to go into the jail, were all of the cells are, but I would be really freaked out in
there! We tie-dyed shirts, and hopefully my looks good! In fact, it it in the wash right now!
Good night everyone! It's already 11:00!

LUV ISTARR, luv awesomeness

Coupons Gauranteed

I helped my BFF, Vicky, for over two hours on her
new blog to help her vent out her love of coupons -
www.couponsgauranteed.blogspot.com!
(Plus, I got my overhand serve in volleyball down.)
We had a yummy dinner, worked on homework and
she showed me her really cute pile of new clothes =)
And while she receiving, I'm dumping. This weekend
I am going to go through my whole closet to sort through
all the clothes that fit, don't fit - need, don't need - cute, or not-so-cute.
Like I said, it's a fresh start!

Thanks for reading,

new & improved

I love my new blog! I just can't get over how cute it is =D
Speaking of which, you guys should totally check out sophieandzoe.blogspot.com!
Luckily, I started my room by cleaning out my closet (it looks absolutely amazing,
without all of that junk crammed in there) and I am SO ready for a fresh,
new start on everything. I am pretty much cleaning out my life =)
My inbox, my room, my blog. Now that I have a new look I will definitely
be more encouraged to get on more often! I am going to try to make these
posts at least a little bit more entertaining (and spell check! Ha!).

LUV ISTARR, luv awesomeness.

Heaters

Ahh....the sweet sound and warmth of the heaters.
The ones that only come on when it's below 40 degrees =)
I love Winter/Fall smells! The fire, leaves, cinnamon. Since Coral
(BBF, Vicky's, mom) brings me to school I don't have to worry
about scrambling on the bus to get the seat next to the beloved heater!
I am going to do two major things today - figure out how in the world
I am going to punk out my Tinkerbell costume (don't ask)
and clean my room.

Wish me LOTS of LUCK on the room!
Plus, my mom just offered me a complimentary breakfast
to only find out I already had breakfast! I guess it could be worse...
ha ha =D

Halloween and Birthdays

La, la, la. Best time of the year!
Ya know why? It's my BFF'S birthday on the 23rd and
on the 31st it's Halloween! I am def going past the "sweet innocent"
look I had last year with the bumble bee costume.
(http://i-starr.blogspot.com/2008/11/pictures-of-me-in-my-costume.html).
I am going to volleyball, but I don't have clay today because MS.Jackie
is going to New York for a couple of weeks (Been there, done that! ha ha).

Cya!

I got some important issues to figure out
