I'M HOOOOOOMMMMMEEEEE!!!!!!!

So, I believe the title explains itself. I. Am. Home. At Last. I missed home, and of course you guys. I can't wait to see everybody again, I'm so homesick! It feels good to be home, where everything is familair. I am about to send you every chapter I wrote while I was away, so prepare yourselves for some reading time. Clear your schedules.

In the subject of reading, I read a few books in Portugal. The Vampire Diaries are amazing books. They are up there with City Of Bones. If you haven't read them, I suggest you get up and go buy them now. Seriously, they are that good. The Lighthouse Trilogy is also amazing. The first one, The Lighthouse Land, I read while I was there. It was so good, I couldn't put it down. It isn't as good as The Vampire Diaries, but still, very good. The second book, The Lighthouse War, is already out, I'm buying it soon, if any of you are interested. The Hollow People, I thought, was pretty good. I can't wait to read the next one to find out what happens, but I don't think I would charge such a thin book as $20.00. If any of you who haven't read it want to, wait for it on softcover or borrow it. Lastly, I have started Wicked Lovely. It is amazing!! I already feel like it will be up there with the best. I am not even that far in - 100 pages or so - and I already can't stop reading. Seriously, if you don't own it, buy it. It's worth it. The second one, Ink Exchange is also out, and I will be buying it. And there is my book reccomendations.

Now that that's out of the way :P, I suppose I will discuss the flight home. Not so good. I had to wake up at 3:30 AM Portugal time, and I only ended up getting those three hours of sleep because of the party outside that went till midnight. On the plane, there was this dumb kid in front of my who kept peering at me continuously and standing up on the chair, turning around and seeing what I was doing. I was really annoyed. The food was of course, gross. I hardly ate anything in those eight hours. I was so hungry when I got home. The trip to Portugal was great, but I hated the flights. Oh well, you can't win them all right? So, now I am off to send you chapters. Prepare to read!

Keep Blogging!!!

So people, I sign on after getting back from the Algarve, where I had no internet, and only one person has blogged!? What the heck is wrong with you people!? This blog is a great way for us to stay in touch, but it doesn't work if nobody blogs fools! Sheesh, so somebody, blog! Or I will perosnally come, and force you to! God! How am I supposed to know what's happening over there if no one blogs and only a few of you email me? So, BLOG!!!!

On another note, I had fun in the Algarve. I went to the southernmost point in Portugal, and went to a fort place. I also went to a castle that was built in the fourth century! That's the year 400! It was pretty cool, but they built this stupid restaurant in the middle of it that looked really weird among the old walls. We also went to this archeological museum. They built the building around this big brick hole they excavated, and next to it is a whole wall that they excavated! The hole goes reallt deep into the ground, with winding stairs but it's closed to the public. I really wanted to go in though. We also went to this cork museum, which was basically just the history of cork. There was also machines they use to make cork and stuff. I was listening to Sound Of Music while we went through it. At the end there was a gift shop and they had a barbie wearing a dress made out of cork. It was really funny.

On my last day in the Algarve we went to the beach. It was a nice beach, and it was a good day for it, but it was kind of crowded, which I don't like. We're going to the beach today too, and it shouldn't be crowded because most people are at work. Hopefully it's not windy!

Lastly, I come home in two days. I don't see the point of me even going to bed on Saturday because I have to wake up around 3:30 AM to get to the airport. We have to be there three hours before the plane takes off. We're going to have to wait in a huge line to check in our luggage, and then we have to do customs when I get back to Canada. I am really excited to be coming home though, I miss everyone. I don't think I've ever missed my friends this much on a trip like this. So, I'll see you all when I get home! And keep blogging!

I Miss You Guys So Much!

Hi you guys! So, I believe the title is self-explanatory. I'm having a surge of missing all you guys! I feel so out of everything over here! I have over 300 pictures now I do believe, and I need to show them to you guys when I get home. I get back on Sunday, one week from now. I can't wait to see you all when I get back.

I am now back from up North. I got a lot of writing done up there, on both of my stories. Prepare to read a lot when I get home. We've rented the car to go up to the Algarve on Monday, and I pray I can get internet up there, otherwise it's four days without any communication with you guys. I think I'd die.

If I do get cut off from the internet, I'll tell you all about it when I get back. Sara, what are Pilates? I need to know, so I can start doing them. Sheesh. Emma, glad to hear you are having a good time! I am jealous. Like Cody, I am green from head to toe. I wish I could have seen this cute guy, did you get pictures? I expect to see tons of pictures when you get back missy.

Until then, I miss you all sooooooo much. I'll see all of you when I get back.

In Portugal

Hey you guys, so I am obviously in Portugal, missing everyone! It is 7:45 here, but 2:45 over there. Weird or what. I would like to say that Europeans eat huge meals. It's insane, I go to a resturant and get a plate that's bigger than my head! Yeesh!

I can't believe the Black Parade Is Dead! is out and I don't own it! I am very depressed about that, and will be purchasing it when I return. So, today we went out for a late lunch, then walked along this pier thingy. It was really windy, but it was neat because there was all these old buildings. I was walking along and saw this insanely cute guy. He looked at me to! EEE! I have some pictures so I'll post them a few.

And...here's me in the mornings...

Hee hee. I had Jet Lag okay? So, I hear Emma is now in the U.S? I wish her a good time! I hope she can get onto the internet too. By the way, I come home in two weeks, I'm not sure what day. I will email everyone when I am home. Until then, I miss you guys!

Luv ya!

So, it is off to Portugal soon. It fast approcheth! I probably won't be able to get internet there, but I am going to finish Chapter 16 before I leave, so at least you guys will have something. And I know that there will be so much inspiration there, I'll come back and you guys will have a ton of chapters to read! YAY!

Playday - Not As Fun As It Used To Be

So, in my opinion, playday sucked. Lack of organism, lack of fun! I think the most fun I had was the end when we were all sitting around in the shade randomly, which is sad because I had a headache. That was really stupid. I liked playday more when I was a little kid, and even then my favourite part was the Freezies. By the way, I never got one of those. Hmph >:(

I am excited though, that tomorrow is the last day! And we're going to Wonderland *dances*! I know I am going to cry though. Even though our school has gone downhill (majorly) I'm going to miss it a teensy weensy bit. More so, I will definitely miss the teachers, especially the ones that actually taught me. And my friends, but I know I'll see all of you so, that makes things better.

Everyone has to blog, blog, blog this summer, so we can all keep in touch. I will try to blog from Portugal, if I can link up to a wireless connection there. I don't know where there is one, or if there even is, since my grandparents don't have a computer. But I will try my best, I swear.

I believe that is all. I will see you all tomorrow, on our last day!!!!
