Japan is beautiful! On Tuesday we went to the fish market and Ueno Park. On Wednesday we went to A market, a Pagoda, and Harajuku district. Today [Thursday] we are taking a train to Kyoto. We will also be going to Osaka.

I am in here in Japan! I really am! In Japan it is 2:10 in the morning! The flight was so long! 13 hours!!! Today we might go to the fish market, since it starts at 5:00. When I get back I will download all of the pictures I take here, on my blog. I promised to keep posted(even though nobody is reading) ;(

Japan!

I am so happy! I am going to Japan for Spring Break! It is going to be so fun! It is going to be a long flight, 13 hours. My mum even said I can get a camera for the trip!

SPRING BREAK! continued.

OMG! There is like an 80% chance I could be going to Japan for spring break. My 'rents were mad that we weren't going anywhere for spring break. My mum was originally trying to find a ticket to Jamaica, but it was really expensive. Then she decided she wanted to go to New Orleans, on a train. But my dad didn't want to ride a train. So now 7:30 My parents are looking up ticket prices. It turns out that Europe is really expensive. And Japan was surprisingly cheap. I really hope we go to Japan! I have never been there!

SPRING BREAK!

It is the first day of Spring Break, Friday the 21 of March, and it is SNOWING!!! That is not good. So now my mum is trying to book a vacation in New Orleans. Fun. I am not really sure if I am happy. Oh well. I am sure whatever my family does over Spring Break.

I am sick, AGAIN!

Paisley Pug

Today I have started a new line of cards named Paisley Pug. They are so adorable!

Happy Birthday!!!

I have the best Idea for a present for Talia's Birthday. I am going to make her a baked potato. But not just any baked potato, it is an ice cream baked potato. You scoop ice cream and then you put it in foil and shape it into a potato shape. Then you freeze it. And then you roll it in cocoa. After that you cut it in half and put fluff(marshmallow goo), green sprinkles, and toffee bits on top. You also put on almond slices on the sides for potato eyes. My present shall be the best!

Sick.....For Real!

Today I am sick. My throat hurts so much! I was sick yesterday but I still went to school because we had a fieldtrip. We went to the Naperville Settlement. It was really fun! Everywhere we went we lined up in two lines. A boys line and a girls line. First we went to the church. At the church we had to dance, with the boys! It was torture! Everyone got the partner that they disliked the most in the whole class. It was also kind of fun. Everyone was cringing. After that we went to the Blacksmith. The girls got to sit on a bench and the guys had to stand behind us. The blacksmith was really cool. He showed us how to make a hook. After that we went to the Printshop. We had to stand the whole time. Plus I couldn't see very well. We made bookmarks there. I was standing in the corner at the end of the shop, so I was the very last person to make a bookmark. After that we had lunch. For lunch I had a chicken sandwich, a pickle, salt and vinegar potato chips, grapes, and celery soda. Everyone was so jealous. My friends were asking for the scraps of my sandwich. After we had lunch we went to this little log house. It was a temporary home for settlers before they could build a bigger house. At the log house we carried empty buckets with this special wood slab that fit over our shoulders. Then we grinded corn. After that we we went inside of the log house. It was as small as my brother's bedroom. We looked at the upstairs room that the children slept in. It was a wooden floor with animal fur on the floor. Not so comfy. After that we went to the school house. It was pretty fun. We had a mini lesson. And then we went to a House to do "chores". The girls went inside to make butter. The boys stayed outside and cut a piece of a log. Us girls then had to serve the butter we had made on crackers to the boys, or how the woman called them "Gentlemen". We had to serve the "gentlemen" first, and then the ladies. Then the servers had some crackers. The ladies got first dibs on seconds. Then we left Naperville Settlement. We had to Drive an Hour to Get back to our school. My friends and I were trying to fall asleep on the bus. It didn't work. But as a result we were very, very tired when we were back at school.

Gromit!

I am also going to watch Talia's pet fish, Gromit during Spring Break!

Sick.......

My throat hurts a lot. But I am a trooper. Plus I really am looking forward to our fieldtrip in Naperville. Lars says he is going to stay home, but that is not a good idea since mum is a chaparone.

Hahahaha!

Today, Frankie, my dad, and I were at Borders. So, we were playing with puppets. Frankie was playing with the puppet that was a hat with a bunny in it(like a magician would have.). And frankie said: "Eleanor, pull the bunny." so I did. And you know what happened. "TOOT!" Frankie tooted! And the family behind us said: "Let's go."

Shopping!

Today I went to DSW and got a cute pair of pumas. I love them and I never, ever want to take them off. My dad took my friend, Frankie and I to Hollister. When I was in the dressing room, I lost the orange Hollister shirt that I had bought the month before. Most of the clothes that I bought were too small! They had the wrong size stickers on them. Oh, well.

OMG!!!

Mum and Dad met Nat and Alex Wolff at the Airport! And they got their autographs! Mum says we are going to frame it and put it on a wall. Imagine this: you are a 11 year old person and some middle aged person comes running towards you and is begging you for your autograph. Funny, huh?

Yippeeioooooo!

I am sooooooooo excited for next Thursday! Talia has invited me to her birthday party! i am sad that Caeli can't go. She will have fun in California.

Wahhhhhhhh! Sob, Sob. Mum and Dad have left to go to NYC to look at houses and school and such. Grandma and Grandpa have come to watch Lars and I.

Yeah!

I am so excited! My dad is taking me to downtown Evanston. There are lots of cool stores there. I am sure we will have a good time! Too bad dad doesn't want to have sushi tonight, because I really want sushi!
