Well, this Thanksgiving break wasn't really anything super special. It mostly felt like a super long weekend to me. Usually my family comes in for Thanksgiving, or we go somewhere special, but this year, we didn't do anything special. Right up until the Wednesday before Thanksgiving I didn't do anything special. I just hung out with my friends and hung around Park Ridge like I usually do, which isn't that bad, because I like to just hang out. Then on Wednesday my mom took me to see Les Miserables, the play. Wow! It was really great. It was very long and confusing but the singing and acting and set was amazing! After the play we got some Starbucks. Yum. Thanksgiving day was pretty normal. I got to play with my neighbor's new kitten and I made mashed potatoes. They were awesome. Just saying. Then my parents made my whole family go see Life of Pi. I wouldn't recommend it. Then, on Friday morning I woke up at 5:30 to go black Friday shopping. And of course, it's dark and scary outside, and I had just watched Paranormal Activity 3 with my friends, so the power had to go out and I had to trip and fall down in my closet. And then I heard a cat meow. We don't have a cat. It was scary. Plus, I was supposed to walk to my friend's house alone that morning. Luckily, another friend was able to pick me up. We went Black Friday shopping an it was really fun! It wasn't as crazy as I thought it would be. No one got trampled. I then spent the weekend at my dad's house with a good friend. It was fun. But, I really don't want this break to end.
I hate tests. No, I don't mind taking them at all. I actually like taking tests if I know the material. Knowing that they exist and that I will have to take them in the future makes me so angry and nervous all the time. I know that I have to study, but I never know what the right amount of studying is. I will study for a little bit, and then I get a bad grade. But then I will study for multiple days, and I won't need half of the information I studied. Which makes me very angry. I stress so much before tests. And, when I know I have a test in the future, I feel as though my homework isn't done, so I can't take the time to do fun things, and then if I take the time to do something fun, I will feel guilty the entire time because that is time that I could be using to study. Right now I have to big test on Thursday. Oh, thank you so much kind teachers for putting the two big last of the trimester tests on the same day. I appreciate it so much that you want me to have no free time and that you want me to be extremely stressed right up to the moment when I am done with the test. Also, yes, some stress is relieved when the test is over, but it is never fully gone until you get the test back. Which for some teachers is about 2 weeks later. They are obviously trying to kill me. They want me to die of stress and anxiety. Thanks. Please grade your tests 13 days faster. For mine and my fellow students health and lives.
Love, Lizzie. I love kittens. They are so fluffy and cute and fun and I WANT ONE. I have wanted a kitten forever, and no, I do not have one yet. My friend recently got a new kitten, and it just made me realize how much I want one. I actually had a kitten for about a day when I was around three years old, but then I had an allergic reaction, so we had to take it back. Poor cat. WHY ON EARTH DID MY BODY THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO BE ALLERGIC TO CATS?! I could have a cat today... but I don't. Now, my mom loves cats too, and also wants one. So, why don't I have a cat? Because I have a dog. My dog is crazy, too. My parents don't think that she would get used to a cat or a kitten, or any other animal being in the house. I disagree, because I know people who have way crazier dogs than I do, and those dogs got used to the cats, so why can't we just have the dog get used to the cat? My parents also say that they spend enough money on the dog, and they don't want to have to spend that much money on a cat. Well, first of all, the dog get sick or injured every 10 seconds, and I guarantee that the cat wouldn't do that. Also, they say that I don't take care of the dog enough. Well, I don't have to take this cat for walks now do I. No. I don't. So just buy me a kitten already.
