My Post of Dreams

You might think I'm weird, but I wrote down some of my dreams on a piece of paper. Here is all the dreams that I wrote down on that piece of paper ( and I dream that I am old like 23 years old in this dream):



My Swimming Dream



One sunny day, I was playing with my kids and sister on the trampoline.

My grandmother and mom were talking and watching my brother as he

went swimming. Suddenly, my brother got out of the pool and started

running. You know the rule: Don't run when your feet are wet (or

like that). As my brother ran, he slipped, and started drowning (he did

not know how to swim). I made up my mind, quick, for he was running

out of air. I dived in (I still didn't know how to swim). I found him and

brought him back up to where there was air. Mom was scared when

my brother and me went under, but was filled with happiness when I

came up with my brother. I found myself a towel and my grandmother

got me white, hot rice with sweet and sour chicken, for the pool was cold.

The End



Well, well, a little scary, huh? I'll try to find that's not too scary. Ahh, here's one! Don't dribble too much over your keyboards when you see this....



My Candy Dream



One night I was soo tired I could hardly keep my

eyes open. But before I went to sleep, I made a wish on a star.

And when I opened my eyes next morn, I found out

that my room was crammed with candy! And not just

my room, the whole house was crammed with candy!

It took days for us to eat all the candy. There were

Nerds, bubble gum, Laffy Taffy, Starbusts, and Hersheys.

The End



What do you know, that had a sweet ending. I have another dream that has a cake that is twelve layers tall. Here it is...



My Cake Dream



There was a time when I decided to

Make a cake twelve layers tall,

And have a friend along with

Me to eat it, so I baked

The cake, and when it

Was done I called up my

Friend who gobbled it up quick,

Oh so quick.



That was a pretty tasty poem.

Happy Birthday!!!

Birthday girl was my sister. Peacock (that's what I call her) was very happy when her birthday arrived on Halloween. Just the night before her birthday, we celebrated with chocolate cake and Peacock was off-the-wall. And when Halloween arrived, she went off-the-wall when she saw how much candy we got. You should have saw it too. We had a lot of candy and it filled a whole wagon. Actually, we did carry it in a wagon. Night Owl's got some posts about Peacock as well on Frolickingnightowl.blogspot.com.

My poems

I like poems. They are sometimes really catchy and some are narrative. Here is are poem that I wrote about a year ago:


Beautiful, Beautiful Rome


Beautiful, Beautiful Rome

with flowers and trees all around;

now I'll say some gods.

Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, and Athena too;

there are many things in Rome!

So, beautiful, beautiful Rome

with flowers and trees all around!


It's morewhere that poem came from. You might think I'm dumb, but I actually liked the poem. Anyway, I might have some more poems stuck in my brain...


Art

Art is very facinating.

Art might take your breath away.

Art is very beautiful, lovely and realistic....

I love art.


Interesting, huh? That was a very short poem. I can't even think of a super good poem that is long and might even interest you, but I'll have to think my brains out.


Christmas


Christmas is Christ's celebration day.

I love Christmas.

It is very cheerful and happy on Christmas morn.

We get presents.

We have a fun time on Christmas day and night.

I love Christmas.


Now you know that my concert is on the 4th of December, but December 4th is ways before Christmas. I liked it so much when I had my last concert. I've been in EVMCO for a year.

About Me: The Spanish side

My dad served a mission in Argentina. So he speaks Spanish. He teaches me Spanish sometimes, and I do Spanish in school, so I might be a brain about Spanish. Arizona is sort of a Mexican state, and I think Spanish is fun in a way. My teacher's husband speaks Spanish. I am talking about my schoolteacher, in fact. I love Spanish in a way, but I don't know what way. I LOVE SPANISH! I hope I serve a mission in a Spanish country. Night Owl thinks I should serve a mission in Russia. No, thank you! But maybe I would.......I think I might. The same thing happened with me and baptism. A few months ago, I was scared of getting baptised. But now, I am completely so off-the-wall about being baptised, confirmed a member of the church, and receiving the Holy Ghost. I am so happy with my life that my heart might burst. I'll have to do a blog post every day. I am very behind in blogging. Goodbye to all of you.

K12's Pancake Breakfast





Yesterday we went to a pancake breakfast at Golden Corral in Casa Grande and it was very yummy. The french toast they had there was yummy. The french toast they had there had cinnamon on the bottom! Tasty!!! And there was also chocolate chip pancakes, bacon, eggs, donuts (I do love donuts a lot, don't you?), cottage cheese, and lots of fruit. The french toast was very sweetish, I think. Night Owl even liked it as well...she doesn't usually like Golden Corral. My siblings loved it! Here's some pictures Night Owl took of us eating our wonderful pancake breakfast...
























So, we had a happy breakfast yesterday. Don't blame me, things get better as you get older...I loved that breakfast! You would have loved it... I think your kids would have have liked it too, as long as you don't get bored on the ride to Casa Grande...but the ride's worth it. Goodbye to all of you that have read this post.

About Me: The Russian Side

So, my parents got me from Russia. People might guess that I'm a plain American! Anyway, I'm half-Russian, half-American, and I guess I would be a European, but I act like I'm a true American. Night Owl (that's my mom) has this video (or tape, whatever) that's a part of the One Hundred and One Dalmatians movie and it's all in Russian. Check it out! I was adopted and already had a name and they liked my name so much that I got to keep my Russian name. I like it as well. I would not like a name like Sarah, or Amanda, or Beth. My name is so one-of-a -kind, so out of this world. I LOVE MY NAME!

Me and Art

I LIKE ART! Art's what most people like in their life. I really like to paint, but clay is a fine thing for artists to use as well. I like the way some paintings look so real that you think that you can walk into them but they aren't really real after all. It gives me a really funny feeling. Here's a question: If you were on a quest that you had to finish in three days and you found some paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, would you stop to examine them or just hurry and keep searching for what ever you needed to search for? Just remember, I LIKE ART!

Night Owl's Concert

My mom had a concert in the past month. I attended with my father and my grandmother and she had invited a friend along for the occasion. The concert was on Sep. 11, 2010. WHAT OTHER YEAR WOULD IT BE?!?! I was not falling asleep in it, because it was very loud almost all the time. I completely collapsed when I had to go to bed. But, before I went to bed, my grandparents came over to have some dessert. I had an apple soda float with way too many chocolate syrup in it. I LOVED THAT NIGHT! HOW COULD I FORGET THAT NIGHT!!!!

My confrence feelings and testimony

The way I watched conference last week: I plugged my family's laptop into the TV and fiddled around with some buttons on the TV remotes and on the TV, and got the laptop to play conference, and the TV too, so that's how I watched conference. 

I'd like bear my testimony. I know the church is true. I love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and I know that prophets are called by God. I am so happy they put me in my family!!!! I LOVE MY LIFE! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Johann Sebastian Bach

Hello. This is Penguin coming to you live from Germany and the year here is 1785. Come with me and learn about the famous composer, Johann Sebastian Bach.

Johann is one of the greatest composers of all time and his life is very interesting. He was born on March 21, 1685 as the youngest of eight children in his family. Both of his parents died when he was ten years old, so he then went to live with his older brother who taught him to play the organ. Johann started school when he was 7 or 8 years old and he was a very good scholar.

Do you know that Bach was married two times? He was married first to his cousin and they had seven children together. After she died, he married again and had thirteen more children. Ten children died as infants, but four of his children became composers. Bach’s death is a sad story. His eyesight grew weak, so he had eye operations that made his eyes weaker. He died on July 28, 1750.

Bach had an interesting musical career. He learned to play a lot of instruments in his life. He played the viola, violin, organ, and harpsichord. He wrote compositions for a Duke and preformed in a orchestra. After Bach’s death, his works were forgotten until a composer named Felix Mendelssohn found and performed them.

Bach is such an outstanding composer. Join us tomorrow night at the downtown church for Bach’s next recital.

It's Choir Day!!!



Today is....choir day! I love this day. I go to this awesome choir and I sing with a children's choir. There is like 5 choirs. It has an adult choir, a choir for high school kids (I forgot the name of that choir), youth choir, children's choir, & a young singers choir (they are really sunbeams, ages 4 to maybe 6. I don't know.). There is a enormous orchestra and my mom plays her violin in the orchestra. We all perform in concerts. There are three concerts per year. I've done one year, so I just barely started getting ready for a Christmas concert. We all are learning our songs from two brothers, Brandon and Brett Stewart. They are amazing!! The date of our concert is probably on Dec. 4. I don't know. But I know it will KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!!

Beautiful Ballerina



OK. So I don't know if I am truly crazy for ballet or not. I mean, it's a nice sport and very fancy, but I don't if I truly like it or not. Give me a second to think... okay, I've decided. I LOVE BALLET! I am crazy for it. So, I love ballet!

About Me

Things that I do in my free time: singing, reading (I am the bookworm in my family), ballet, swimming, and (you might think I am weird on this one) biking. Oh, forgot two. Spending time with my family and baking.

My favorite animals: penguins, flamingos, dogs (I would love a German shepherd), sea lions, butterflies, platypuses, and polar bears. I am wild for penguins and dogs. If I could, I would have a golden retriever, husky, German shepherd, and a dalmatian. I LOVE DOGS!!!

Crafts: making bracelets and necklaces, painting, sewing projects, and scrap booking. A new one is blogging. Ha ha!

My most favorite things to do in the world: paint, sculpt, and draw. (That was my fave art stuff to do) For baking, I like to bake sweets. For fun, I play computer games. I have a stash of them on the computer.

My favorite foods: mac and cheese, PB and J, brownies, cookies, cakes (if they have chocolate), spaghetti, laffy taffy, jolly ranchers, salmon, strawberries, New York style cheesecake, and fish sticks.
