I Have My Own Room! Ha! Ha!

I have been sharing a room with my younger sister for a while and this week I got my own room. When my Grandmother moved out, (We miss you, Omi) we made her room the study and I moved downstairs. I am really grateful to my mom and dad for helping me move in. 

Today we went on a hike to the Crest. We had a great time and we went with some friends. It was, brace yourself,  48 degrees! Which is just about freezing in New Mexico, and it was windy. 

They had a wonderful view from way high up. We could see Costo from up there.

I can't remember what we were looking at, but it was fun.

We had lunch right by the edge, no one fell off though. There were some people further up. We called to them as loud as we could. We decided their names were Jimmy, Lisa, Michael, and Carl.  

And now I would like you to meet my long-lost cousin: Fred Ingrip Chipmunk! 

I know this is really brief, but I will try to blog more soon.

See ya!

Happy Day! Happy Day!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How many of you know of a certain obsession I have with seven books written by someone called J.K. Rowling? If so raise you hand. (I really hope all hands are raised.) 

So the Half-Blood Prince came out today. I think it was well worth the wait and was definitely better than a certain well- known vampire romance movie that came out because the movie was not ready. I did not enjoy the book much. End of sentence. Too many explanations and far too little action. I LOVED the movie. 

So today our parents surprised us by taking us to the movie, while Laura was off with Ba. It was funnier than all the other movies put together. There would be complete silence or a weird expression and the whole theater would burst into laughter. I found this to be odd because the book had struck me as sort of low-key. So to go and see such a funny movie was a bit of a twist. Sure they cut out 400,164,684,765,942,374,896 scenes and made -one, two, three... Okay, let's just say A LOT of mistakes. I have to congratulate them, to transform at 652 page book (I checked) and make it into a 2 and a half hour long movie is a feat. 

In short go see the movie and let me know what you think. (Just get there two hours early and buy tickets online.) 

Truce!

Yes, I know that I have not blogged for, well, forever. I'm sorry and hope you will not be angry with me. I have been reading quite a lot and swimming so you can't blame for taking joy in those little matters. 

I am sorry this is so short, but my mom and I are starting Little Men tonight and I don't want to miss the beginning. 

Thank you and good night.
