    • Happy June! :)
    • Kara rode her bike over to my house & i met her "halfway".
    • http://twitpic.com/6evpo - @itskara & i singing obnoxiously at the top of our lungs on the side of my pool! haha :D
      • apparently it sounded like a trapped animal outside! oh dear.. "WE DON'T CARE!"
    • guess this not writing the good things didn't really work out as planned. well at least i don't HAVE to. it's kinda made me guilty considering i haven't even made it halfway through the year. but eh, i already told myself that i would get to June & that's it. AHH. i can't help myself!
  • 06/04/09
    • it took me 23 minutes to run around the neighborhood without stopping.
  • 06/05/09
    • WOOOOW. what a night! :D
      • i had to get up at 7am for tumbling, but i didn't want to cos it felt like my night had just begun!
      • well tonight made up for all the boring days i've had so far ;)
    • "Kevin!"
      • the giant female bird! whenever one of the characters mentioned Kevin's name or Kevin popped up, we would all go "KEVIIIIN!" hahah, it was great!
    • i'm just about as shocked as Sierra is right now. good times, good times :)
    • it was SO funny just walking up to pay for our tickets cos we had to jump behind cars in line. the lady was like, "i hope you two are meeting someone here!" we were like "yeah, yeah!"
    • then when we walked in, Sierra was telling me how the people we were meeting were a year older than us & all guys. so i was like, "OH GEEZ. i guess i shoulda made myself look a bit better, jkkkk!" haha, i didn't care. we just stood in the grass like okay what do we do now?! where are they?! as we were walking to them i was like "i'm scared, i'm scared!" but it was fine anyway since i didn't know them. just walked up, said hellos, met people, stood there, listened to their convos.
    • Alien's Exist by blink-182 in ?!?!? !
    • twitter buddies! haha, Levi said something like "gotta update twitter!" and Sierra was like "ohhh! Clarissa has a twitter too!" haha. we didn't exchange usernames though.
    • "and that's being generous!" me talking about the limited space we left Pat to sit in the back of the minivan.
    • the people in the truck first took the comfy pillows and blankets we were sitting on & then grabbed the futon too! haha, it was very uncomfortable.
    • we ended up sitting from left to right: me, Pat, Sierra, and Levi.
    • but not too long through, Pat made me put his arm around his shoulder so that he could lay his head on my shoulder. :P it must have looked funny for a girl with her arm around a guy's shoulder, when it should be the other way around. but eh, i didn't mind. i went something like "so Sierra, how's my arm?" and she said "wow Clarissa, your arm is SO soft!" haha and then the guys start feeling my arm too & saying do you shave your arms?! i said "nooo, i SWEAR i don't shave my arms! i know there's hair there!" and they tried picking at my arm to see if there was really any there.
    • but then he thought that it would be more comfortable if he sat in the place i was sitting, so we switched spots and i was sitting next to Sierra. then he's like "WOW. i really can't see! you tricked me!" he kept saying i tricked him when honestly i didn't. i said "actually, i didn't. you wanted to sit there!" and he tries to get me to switch with him, but i didn't and Sierra didn't want me to either! (but that was cos she wanted to hold onto my arm so Levi wouldn't grab her hands or anything since he was trying to.) eventually he realized at some point that i wasn't going to move, so he laid his head on my shoulder and grabbed my arm again so it was around his shoulder. his weight on my arm made it fall asleep, but i didn't want to say anything, hahaha it was nice ;) and then he wrapped his arm around my back too. it was a bit forward, i admit, considering i had only known him for an hour or so by then. but it was the first time a guy has ever done that to me, so it was pretty cool. haha. (after i mentioned that to Sierra, she said "i had a feeling that no one has ever done that to you before. you two looked so cute! :)" that made me smile! :D)
    • during the movie, i swear he was trying to pull off what Levi was doing to Sierra, except he never did. (i take that back..he did try to earlier) his arm was half on my leg just resting and it was only a few inches away from my arm. i was a bit worried that he would do something (even though it wouldn't last long) cos my hands were so sweaty & clammy, like they always are.
    • but earlier (and i can't remember why atm!) we ended up playing where he tried to slap my hand down, but i shot my hand up so he wouldn't. all in good fun! he did at first & i'm sure that was his way of trying to hold my hand or something.
    • he brought over a box of cheez-its! i mentioned to Sierra how i think i like goldfish much more & she was surprised.
    • Sierra was still holding my pepsi when the movie ended & i had only taken a sip or two. she tried handing it to me, but i just stared at it. and she was like "were you expecting me to give it to you?" i said "actually yeah, i was!" so he grabs it & starts feeding it to me till i made a noise. about the second time Sierra made me laugh & pushed her saying "don't make me laugh!" the last time it spilled all over & he grabs the blanket saying to just wipe on it.
    • he starts knocking on my shins & knees and i go "that's my knee".
    • he also kept tickling me & i squirmed around even though i wasn't really ticklish at all. :P
    • we were making commentary throughout the whole movie, haha.
    • tbh i didn't want to leave & i secretly wanted their numbers before we left, hahaha. ;D but nope. i gave Pat a hug before we left though.
    • Sierra & i didn't stay to watch Night at the Museum 2 also because 1) Sierra's dad had already left & was on his way, 2) she wasn't sure if her parents would like 17 year olds driving us home, 3) she probs felt a bit uncomfortable.
    • in the movie:
      • "squirrel!" -planes crash- "i hate squirrels."
      • "hi there, my name is Doug. my master made me this collar so that i can talk. SQUIRREL! O.O hi there!"
      • "good afternoon. are you in need of any assistance today, sir?" "no." "i could help you cross the street?" "no." "i could help you cross your yard?" "no."
      • "with my wilderness explorer GPS we'll never be lost!" -GPS is thrown out window-
      • "he's probably radioactive or something!" (IS THAT HOW IT WENT!?!?)
  • 06/07/09
    • went to see Up with Dad & Makayla at the Downtown Theater at 1:30pm and got sick afterwards.
  • 06/09/09
    • "so tonight i'm gonna party like it's 1999." :)
      • 1999th tweet.
    • TWO THOUSAND! WOOT :)
    • HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND! PFFFFT.
      • he's got some MAJOR issues then. wow.
      • but Levi said that he's not what he seems like when you get to know Pat. and that he doesn't have many friends. (tbh i'm surprised he has a gf then!)
    • hung out with Sierra todaaay! we met Trent, the Kinders, Zach, Dean, & Jeff at Jaycee Park. it's been a year since i've seen Trent last! he's staying with Chris W. but i'm a bit confused cos Trevor was there too, but where was his parents staying?!
      • before the guys came over, Sierra and i were amusing ourselves by echoing under the gazebo and i noticed that it only echos the low voices. then i was disappointed when Sierra texted me saying "hi loser :)" cos i thought it would be twitter. when we saw the guys coming we were freaking out and scared cos it kinda looked a party.
      • we played games like 'Man on Sand' (i didn't like that one), freeze tag, & regular tag. regular tag was the funnest one!
      • Trent mocked me cos i said "seriously?!" with a high-pitched voice. haha. i was shocked that i was it again.
      • i admit i did pretty well chasing the guys. i either ran & caught up with them or i caught them off-guard. there was one time when i just slipped my flipflops off & ran cos it was a lot easier. that made the guys steal my shoes & throw them everywhere. and when i got my second shoe back, Trent was like "yeah, i spit on it." and i was like eh whatever.
      • then Sierra and i flipped cos we heard the ice cream man. haha, we got Spiderman ice cream.
      • the whole "shower" thing when you're swinging at the same time with someone else. i kept shouting "get out, get out!" to be funny, but i quickly realized it sounded baaad.
      • then i kept swinging back & going "wooo!" haha, it was fun.
      • we kept playing tag even while we were on the swings. it was great b/c it kept going back & forth.
      • Sierra & i went back to her house to eat dinner and walked back to the park afterwards, but they had gone to Zach's house to play video games. so it took FOREVER to just get his house address so we could go over there! but we gave up walking cos we had to be back by 9pm. so hopefully we're gonna hang out again before Trent leaves. :)
        • possibly Sierra's birthday, the 15th?
      • Sierra & i walked around a majority of the time singing & dancing to her music on her phone.
      • "that's hot. i'm coming over." was what Patrick would say whenever Sierra said something. haha, so we joked that he would say that whenever he replied.
      • we planned to hang out with Raahi on the 15th.
      • AH. my feet hurt so badly! i was walking & running around allll day. it's been a LONG day. but i had loads of fun playing games with the guys at the park! haha :)
  • 06/10/09
    • changed my phone to Spanish because Sierra told me to and it's sweet!
  • 06/11/09
    • i sprained my ankle really badly. it basically took a week to get better.
  • 06/12/09
    • @mcflymusic was created.
    • Sierra and i got Spiderman popsicles again from the ice cream man and it turns out that it was the same guy! haha.
    • as Sierra and i were nearing the park entrance i kinda lost what i was doing for a second so Sierra said "Clarissa, park!" and in turn, i held the brakes and flew forward off the seat, but not off the bike, not expecting the strong and powerful brakes! Sierra would not stop laughing! she thought it was hilarious, haha ;)
    • Sierra and i rode her bikes to the park again and it turns out the guys were already there. she thought it was awkward cos they were there, but idk. so we decided to "take a stroll" around the block so that we could be walking into the park like "oh hey!", but no. we came back and they stole our bikes and we later found them in Chris W's garage. Sierra and Trent made a whole big deal over texting and the rest of the night was just awkward. they wouldn't speak to us..hence the huddle.
    • slowly leaving, taking long waaay.
    • huddle! the guys would ALWAYS huddle around Trent texting on his phone.
    • my fat is crying! -Sierra trying to sit on the swings sideways.

    • "Don't be so mayo." on signs near the Iron Wolf.
    • "try to touch EVERYTHING!" - Cora on the Whizzer XD
    • there was a girl who was talking to me and Abby on the Viper and she's like "i went on Batman 15x!" and her friend was like "and i went on Superman 8x!"
    • Cora always blamed me for twittering saying that was the reason everyone started following us and how the lines were long.
    • the guy who worked the Viper made a big deal about my blue bag. he said i couldn't have it with me. he told me to try putting it in my pocket and i'm like 'it won't fit.' he said 'oh you'd be surprised what people can fit in their pockets.' so then he told me i could run all the way down and put it in a locker. oh yeah, while everyone else waits? no way, man. i don't think so. i ended up putting it in Taylor's pack. it doesn't make sense because i could literally stand up on that ride and he's concerned about my bag. :|
    • so before the park closed, we got on Batman four consecutive times and seven times altogether.
    • played the food game and named food on the way back.
      • Chinese people eat alligators, dogs, and cats. we're like, does anyone eat them?! and someone said that Chinese do. (idk, if it's true. it was just funny at the time.)
