allo my friends.
i got my locker today, it's in the 400 hall, number 122. so come and visit me. then i went to Macorroni Grill for lunch and colored on the table clothes. afterwards, we went to the Wellington mall, where i tried to find a top for my skirt. i gave up and just bought a dress. it's pretty, i think. then some guys were asking my parents about me. i thought that was odd. whatever. i also bought the Jadakiss cd. hope it's good. i just hope it's not too much. i doubt it is. i just got home and talking to my ashley. but i think im gonna go soon to try and read my book. i really need to get this work done. yeah- i'm pushing it. like usual. im out. xoxo.

We family and aint a damn thing changed, unless it's you.
i'm just updating for the hell of it. don't really have anything to say. we rented 13 going on 30, probably watch that in a bit. then do some reading, i'm actually getting into it. it's a werid book, but somehow enjoyable. on the other hand, bio homework, i just can't seem to get myself to doing it. anyhoo, my friend, Lisa, came over yesterday. we finally exchanged Christmas gifts. better late than never. i think that's all the news for now.

wait, i remembered something: i think i'm going back to dance. :D. i really hope that it works out. i've missed it so much! so yeah, i'm excited. i'll keep you updated on how it's going.

xoxo. <3

they wont let me out no, they wont let me out.
woke up around 8:30 to work out. came home 10-ish and ate some breakfast. but there was still no food in the house. thank god mom went to publix. i took a nap from 12-2 or 3..i can't remember. took a nice long, hot shower- much needed. watched a lot of tv, yet again. i got some reading in too, but i'm only at like page 25 or so. so yeah, there's a lot more. i got kaila's birthday present today. hehe. mom got some taco bell for us kiddies. then she took me to walmart, or should i say, i toook us to walmart. lol. she's still scared when i drive; therefore, i get nervous. but not too bad. picked up 6 rolls of film- but returned a lot. i'll show them to you, well the ones from school. now i'm home-- maybe i'll read. actually, before i do that, i'm going to frame my amigos. sorry, i'm still in the spanish mode from my trip. lol. ttfn. x0x0.

now, as you all know, i went on a cruise to Cozumel, Mexico. that was a lotta fun. i'll try and go day by day. but i know there will be missing details.

wednesday: (i just have to include this) we're packing, just like any normal family would do. well, i didnt want the ugly suitcase. neither did my mom. so we were started argueing..just messing around.
sam: please mom! i dont want an ugly suitcase.
mom: neither do i! i hate ugly things.
sam: then you understand my problem
mom: get over it. im your mom and i say no
sam: you should give up things for your kids
mom: ::puts hand into a gun shape:: and says," bang bang motherfucker!! it mine."
i just cracked up..i thought that was the funniest thing she's ever done. but i guess you really had to be there.

thursday: we left around noon. did all the check in stuff. then we checked out the boat. its freakin huge!! went to karyoke. just watched lol.

friday: layed out for a little bit. did random things on the boat. it was the captains dinner so we all got dressed up. me and my sis looked at the teens club. and I(yes-me) was gonna dance. but not one person moved. we made fun of them and left. plenty of stalkers on the boat too.

saturday: went to cozumel. took a jeep tour of the island. its pretty over there. but while we were in the jeep. a frog fell out of a tree and into my sister's lap. that was freakin hilarious. and my dad hates frogs so we almost crashed. haha. went back to the boat got all cleaned up. then went shopping. i got a tatoo. temporary of course. its a little butterfly on my ankle, it should last about two weeks. oh, and by the way, mexicans at ATL are nothing compared to the real deal. even the old ones. yuck. and did you know they always say "my friends" ?

sunday: went to the spa. then layed out. went to dinner. then the talent show. and my grandma got drunk. lmao. hilarious. but scary at the same time. she gets very angry when shes drunk, although this is the first time i've seen a family member drunk. i bought 2 Guess purses and a Guess wallet. no tax! yay.

monday: came home.

theres more..but i cant type it all. so talk to me. adios

ok, ok. i lied.
now im gonna say good bye. im leaving in a few hours. everyone is getting all worked up. so its hectic but still fun. hopefully by the time i come back i'll be tanner and my hair will lighten up. lol. i'll see you on monday with a full report. love ya! x0x0.

1.2.buckle my shoe.3.4.shut the door.5.6.pick up sticks.7.8.lay them straight.9.10.lets do it again.
yesterday was a busy day. correction: very busy day. went to exercise like usual and around 11, chiara calls me to go to the mall. but i already had plans with amara. boy, was it hard trying to fit both of them in. let me explain:
-> me and amara had no rides.
--> we were going to take the bus. so chiara and i would go to the mall and then i would be dropped off around 2:30 at amara's house.
--->amara finds out she can't ride the bus.
----> i call my aunt, she says she can take us. i had chiara drop me off there. picked up amara. and i convinced my mom to pick us up. even though we had to wait til 8.

complicated, but we managed. me and chiara were doing indian voices. lol. "my name is Kurpow and i work at 7-11. we have hot dog. you want?" anyway, she found a lot of cute stuff and we had lunch. [(switch friends)] i found a cute shirt. and i found a skirt for kaila's party. me and amara looked in every single store. it was insane. i've never been in any of them. i tried on a $300 dress, things i would never even dream of wearing. by the end of the day, we looked drunk. we even walked the mall barefoot. and cell phone service can kiss my ass. we had to walk the mall an extra time just to find service and when i did find it, i had to squat, because if i stood up i wouldn't have any. then we sat in the burdines shoe section waiting for my mom. it was a fun, yet complicated, day. while we were driving home, my mom took the liberty of telling stories of how the family loves to tease me. amara got a kick out of that.

then i got home and ate dinner. watched the movie we rented. it sucked. [Intolerable Cruelty] tried on some clothes- hoping i would have a top for the skirt. i didn't, but i did find some outfits for school. lol. then i went to bed.

and tomorrow i leave for my cruise!! i come back on monday. since i'm most likely not going to see you guys today. i'm gonna say good bye and i'll miss you! x0x0.

she works hard for the money.
i cleaned out an entire garage. from 11- 6. that's definitely 7 hours of hard work. but it's worth it, i'm getting paid.

last night, i talked to my ashley from 12 - 3 am. that was fun, as usual. then my i found my sister sleep walking and talking. that was freaking hilarious. got up today- cleaned. showered up and went to dinner. then i drove to walmart to drop off the film and picked some colors out for my blanket that i'm having made. it's gonna be purdy. ran into some friends while i was there too. drove home. and decided that it was time to take mommy for a spin. it's the first time she's driven with me. haha- she was so nervous. so, of course, i got nervous. i still managed to do well though. but one downfall is i have to get used to the dark tinted windows. i'm used to driving my aunt's car, which isn't near as dark. so being that i'm gonna have my mom's car, i need to get used to it. anyhoo, i made it home, and now she feels better about me driving.

now i think i'm going to go watch Intolerable Cruelty. or maybe i'll just go to bed? i dunnO. peace out homies. <3

this a lot harder than i thought it would be...
i can not, i repeat, can not find an outfit for kaila's party. i have looked up and down the entire mall, even went in stores i normally wouldn't. maybe amara will open my eyes to something on tuesday? hope so. it's cutting it close though, especially being that im leaving on thursday. i'll try and be optimistic.

anyhoo, on friday i went out to dinner with some friends at T.G.I. Fridays. it was fun, we realized guys arent gentlemen. or should i say we were reminded. went back to chiara's house to look at pictures. danny showed off, i shot him down. sorry kid, just hadda do it. then, chiara wanted to sign up for her SAT and ACT..and for some reason i have to be there. lol. well, we couldnt remember our user name, so we had it emailed to us. but we also forgot our password. not olny that, but the answer to our security question. so i think we have to start all over :(. the process is soo long. she drove me home and saw my room. she liked ;). and shes scared of harely. lol. she left around midnight. it was a good night. oh, and i finally saw zoolander. it had funny parts. but i was expecting more. i think i should stop expecting stuff from movies, becuase whenever i do, it never happens. lol.
------------>f.y.i. i drove in the dark, on a road, with cars, by myself. only about a mile. but i was proud. :D

then saturday, i went to the mall with my sister. made some exchanges. shopped. didnt find a thing. ate some lunch in the food court. later, my aunt met up with us, for back to school shopping. still didnt find anything. so we stopped looking for us, and got some baby clothes for my other aunt's new baby. [they live in japan.] the clothes are so adorable. i picked them all out. i have decided that im going to have one cute baby. i picked out their future outfits. lol. then i drove all the way home. :D about time right? yeah, a little more of this and im on my way to the licsense!!

today, mommy is taking in 3 rolls of film for me! yay. pick them up on tuesday or something like that. and i dont have to pay. :) tonight, i think im gonna go out with some friends. in the mean time, im gonna go lay out. or if the sun decides to hide, i'll just chill inside.

adios amigos. <3

who loves shopping? sam loves shopping. i do, i do, i do0.
woke up around 10:30 and was told that i'd be left home alone. i was fine with that. but then they(mom, dad, and reece) decided to take me with them. thank god i went. we first went to the jewelers because my mom had a credit. she got a tri-gold chain, its really pretty and my dad got his wedding ring sized. and this is where i fell in love. with a bracelet that is. its gorgeous..white gold butterflies/flowers with diamonds. only problem- the price tag read $495. so im putting the beg on for my birthday. ya never know. then we went to the mall. got 2 Guess shirts, a jean skirt, and a black XOXO purse from burdines. a white Billabong belt from pac sun. and a shirt from express. so yeah, i did some damage. had some lunch in the food court. then it was time to head home. went to exercise at 4:30.

im gonna go now- eat, shower, and such. we're gonna rent Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. x0x0.

just got home...
from a wonderful night with amara. we saw The Notebook and may i say a.m.a.z.i.n.g. i loved it. i want/will own it when it comes out. i didnt cry like people told me i would do, but i did tear up a lottt. just go see it if you havent. other than that me and amara just caught up with eachother and looked through magazines. or as this random guy said, "forget it. they're looking through bitch magazines." whatever..lol. i missed her! it was definitely nice to see her again. hopefully it'll happen more often though.
