What's New?

Well, it's been awhile since my last post. Remmeber when I said I'd be doing one every week?
Ha.
CHEC started back up and I had 2 tournaments last month. But things are finally settling down. In 6 days, I get to have my braces! Yes, I am excited, and yes, if you have a problem with it, I will bite you. I'm totally phsyced!
...hm. What else is new....oh yes! I found a really awesome TV show called Monk. It's a mystery show where this retired detective named Adrian Monk-oh just go to Netflix and look it up. I won't spoil it for you:) Or wikipedia. I just now found out (duhhh) that wikipedia isn't that great. Genius that I am. So...don't look it up on wikipedia. Google it and you'll find something.
Well, the recent tourney we had was pretty fun! I saw a bunch of old friends and met some new ones!! And I got 5th in my Humorous interp! So...yay for me.
I guess that's all! I'll try REALLY hard to post something else tomorrow...oh and I have a recipe for ya'll I'll be posting in a minute. 
See ya and thanks for stopping by!

There was a tiny ginormous tie for 2nd place :P : Pop, Country, and Other. Now if any of you wanted Other, could you post in the comments what it was? Thanks! Anyway. Pop and Beyond.

SIX FLAGS!

WOW!
For World Youth Day, I went to six Flags along with most of the teens from my church. It was my first time EVER going!!! Our chaperone didn't know that, and said that I should try The Titan. So....The Titan was my VERY FIRST ROLLERCOASTER EVER! It was so scary, but it was fun:) Then we went to the Batman. THAT was my favorite. And then we all did the ship thing, Aquaman, and the log ride. For dinner I had a chocolate shake and fries...haha. Anyway, I had an awesome time! Six Flags was totally fun! Have any of ya'll gone before?

SNACK RECIPE: Non-sushi sushi :)

I can't help it. I love snacks.
My mom buys Sushi Nori for her homeade sushi. She spreads mayo over one sheet, then cuts up avacado, carrots, smoked salmon, puts on spinach and olives, and adds a little grated cheese. Then she wraps it all up, cuts it up, and, viola! Sushi. Of course, we don't put on sticky rice 'cause it's VERY hard to make. So, there is my mom's version of sushi. Well, before I liked sushi, I made my own "Kid-friendly" sushi. I now call it (for obvious reasons :P) Non-sushi Sushi.

NON-SUSHI SUSHI

1 leaf of lettuce
2 pieces of meat
1 slice of cheese
1 carrot
Some mayo


Serves one
Spread mayo on the lettuce. Put on meat, then cheese, then the carrot. Roll up. Devour. Then make another. :) And of course, enjoy.

This is anothet one of my favorite snacks:D
