16

Ah, I have this crazy need for a stimulating conversation right now.

16 things... just things.

1. My sister went off to England yesterday. For six months. After spending the last two months with her, I was beginning to think it was like the old times when everyone lived at home. Haha I should send this to Soap Opera Digest.

2. I have an amazing best friend, who I can talk to about anything. Sometimes I just want to talk about the most random things, but she goes along with it like it's nobody's business. Let's hang out. I wish her well.

3. I love to write. Sometimes. Most times not in English. But sometimes, I get such an amazing feeling when I write, that I could just close my let the words fall onto the paper. However, I think my powers are draining, because I really had trouble with this past essay. That's scary.

4. I plan on summoning up the courage to go talk to Norman Cooper about me helping him cover some of the stories in the newspaper (C'mon, it's terrible the way it is).

5. WHY can't I wear cool clothes? Sam comes up the stairs every morning with a whole wardrobe perfectly matched on him, and I wake up and automatically reach for the nearest jacket.

6. For one day, I would like to live in the biggest house on earth. With hundreds of huge rooms, winding staircases, and secret passageways. Like the Vanderbilt house. Or something. I could just get lost in a house like that.

7. Why can't I play soccer? I've been at it for seven years, and some of the eight graders are still better than me. I leave every practice with a feeling of complete failure. I'm a striker, and I scored a single goal last year. During a JV game. On accident.

8. Over Christmas, I totally made a stalking move with my mind. Setting: I am on the couch, the stalking dangling just feet away from me on the chimney. So, naturally, I concentrate on trying to get it to move. And it so did.

9. In the barber shop the other day, I was reading a "Ripley's Believe It Or Not" book, and I came across the ocean section, and have decided not to get with in two miles of a beach from now on. Did you know that there's these crabs that shoot darts that cause excruciating pain? And don't even get me started on how fast you can die from just touching a box jellyfish.

10. I have gone to Quick Trip before and put all of the sodas flavors into one cup, and then drunk it.

11. I want to be able to play the piano like a pro. And the violin. And don't forget the cello.

12. I have never had a video game, cable t.v., or a cell phone.

13. I absolutely, positively, without a doubt cannot stand being around drunk people.

14. You know what would be awesome? An entire mansion that is a moonwalk, with several floors and staircases and everything. Haha.

15. Sometimes, I just hate interacting with people. Some people just shouldn't have evolved with the gift of speech.

16. One time, I had this dream where I was in the Harry Potter Quiditch field, and I was flying around during a game wearing a hat with wings. It was freakin awesome.
