3 busy days

Ahhhhh! I'm so sorry I didn't write in here for the past three days!!!! I was really busy; Saturday night I had a sleep over with Rachel, Sunday night I had another sleep over with Frances and Katy, and last night I went out for dinner and came home at 1:00 A.M., so I was too tired to write. But I'll write about Saturday, Sunday and Monday right now.


Saturday


     On Friday night, I wanted to invite Rachel over for dinner, but it was really last minute, so mommy hadn't prepared anything for dinner. Instead, she said Rachel could come over on Saturday night for dinner and a sleep over. 
     Before the sleep over with Rachel, I had a violin lesson. I only managed to memorize 2 pages of the concerto, so now I have to memorize 3 more pages.
     After violin class, mommy took me to eat noodles again at the same restaurant as last week. Since this noodle restaurant is really close to the shop 'H&M', mommy said I could go there to buy some clothes for the wintertime. At H&M, I bought:
~A pink sweatshirt with black zebra stripes on it
~A pair of skinny jeans that are very stretchy so they are comfortable
I didn't buy much, so I'll need to go back again because almost all my winter clothes are too small for me and winter is coming soon!!




Sunday


     It was the first time in a while for me to play with Frances and Katy, since we are all really busy with homework. But after lunch today, they were free to play!
     Although it wasn't very sunny outside (it was cold and windy in fact), Katy wanted to go swimming, so we all went down to the pool to swim. As I guessed, the water was SO COLD! But we swam for a long time and soon I was used to the temperature. 
     After swimming, I had to go back home to take a shower and take Samantha out for a short walk. When I told Frances and Katy about having to walk Samantha, they said they wanted to come with me, so after our showers, we went to the park to walk Samantha. 
     When we came back from the walk, Frances and Katy had some very good news for me... we could have a sleep over!!! So I immediately started packing and went over to their house. 
     We made smoothies out of juice, yoghurt, marshmallows, raisin and bananas. When we mixed them all together in the blender, Frances and Katy really didn't like it, but I liked it a lot, so I drank it all up :D
     


Monday  


     This morning, Frances, Katy and I wanted to walk to Stanley with Samantha. Mommy said it was OK. But when we got to my house, mommy said Samantha can't come with us, because she was sick. A couple nights ago, we ordered new dog food, and the bag was open so Samantha ate almost all of it... and it is a pretty big bag!! So now she is vomiting and pooping uncontrollably so we couldn't take her on our walk.
     When we got to Stanley market, it was really busy since it was a public holiday, so we had to wait in a very long line to have lunch. We ate at a restaurant called 'Wildfire' since the line was the shortest.
     After eating some pizza and pasta, we had to go back home because mommy booked a tennis court for me to play with a boy called Jonathan. 
     When we got back home, there was still a few hours left until tennis, so Frances, Katy and I went to the pool to swim. We played hide-and=seek tag. It was really fun but I had to go home to get ready for tennis.
     Jonathan is really, really, really good at tennis, so there weren't a lot of rallies between us at tennis because his shots were so hard for me to return. But after a while of playing I started improving a bit.
     After tennis, Jonathan's mom invited mommy and I over to their house for dinner. Jonathan just got a hamster, so before dinner I played a lot with the hamster called Happy. After dinner, we watched a movie called 'Monster House'. It was pretty good. 
     When the movie was over, it was really late so Jonathan had to go to bed since he has school tomorrow. But it is now my mid-term break, so I could stay up later. 
     But time and time passed, and mommy was still talking with Jonathan's mom. I was so tired that I fell asleep sitting upright! When midnight came, finally I could go back home and sleep in my comfortable, warm bed :)



    

Birthday Party

Today was so much fun!!


It was Frances' 10th birthday party, and last night I went over to Frances' house for a birthday sleep over. I helped her prepare for her party.


Unfortunately, my violin tutor started exactly when Frances' party started, so I had to be about an hour and a half late for her birthday. I bought Frances an H&M gift card -- like what Sophia gave me. Frances really liked it. At the party, we played games and treasure hunts and stuff :)


Also, I had tennis in the morning, and I thought it would be a bit cooler this week than it was last week; I was wrong. It seemed much hotter today than it did last week at tennis!! I was soooo hot :o


When everyone went back home and it was soon dinner time, Frances, Katy, their mom, my mom and I went to the pool side to have a barbecue dinner. It was really fun as well. After Frances, Katy and I finished dinner, we dipped our feet in the pool and played around. We started trying to make each other laugh and it was really funny.
