So I joined Dragon Boat club. I got my paddles. Dragon boat is hard work! It's like rowing but you use your arms, legs, and back not your arms. Your hands only hold the paddles. I made some friends in the club. We went ice skating for a club activity. I failed miserably!! Knees are badly bruised! Even with two guys, one on each side, holding my hand I continued to fall. SO not graceful... I also went to the Bonfire for the club. We played Duck Duck Goose Truth or Dare. It was funny. One guy we are calling Striper Joe now. : ) For Dragon Boat will have to meet 3 times a week for training. I need to run more. I can't keep up with the guys!

I am also in the Anime Club. We are watching Natsume Yujincho! It's so cute. : D Since I know Alice (Yumedarling) I get to go to dinner with her and her friend after the club. We went to Fabric District and got some fabric for CCS Sakura and Syaoran school uniforms and will hopefully work on them on Saturday. Alice is going to help. :heart:

I have all ready had two midterms; one in Japanese and one in Arts of Asia. I got a 95% on Japanese. Yay! I only made stupid mistakes. I hope I did well on my Arts of Asia test! I want a Bor B+ at least! I also have done two papers. One for Arts of Asia (Please be a good grade) and one for Intercultural Communication. Apparently I am the only freshman in that class. So much reading to do! No time for fun! And not time for sleep!! So tired...need to finish art work too...

Yesterday I went to Prom! It was fun! My sis and me got our hair all done nicely with spiral curls and the day before we got fake nails put on. We even ran into someone at the salon who went to elementary school with us! She is so different now! I saw Natalie there too. At 3:30 the limo picked me and my sis up then we went to Lila's to get Ra Jin, Lila, and Peter. We had some lupia (is that how it is spelled?) and took pictures. Then the limo went to Andrew's to pick up Andrew, Micheal, and Elliott. There was some difficulty in figuring out how the flower pins onto the tux. But Micheal helped Andrew. lol More photos and we headed to El Torito's to eat. I got tricked into buying a Carne Asada. I wanted to share one with my sister, but the guy was like "Only enough for one." Ha! It was huge. I eat only half of mine and spent 18.00 on it! My corsage's flowers fell off though. : ( It didn't even last an hour! We tried superglueing it back but it fell off by the end of the night. Kristina finally made it to the resturant and we went to leave and suddenly Peter's grandmother appeared outside! She came after us to get photos! XD

We hopped back into the limo and headed to the Hall of Champions for prom. There was some interesting and humorous conversations that went on. We arrived like an hour early to prom! XD We hid in the limo until others came. We were there before the staff and teachers! Losers! XD I felt bad for the guys, they had to be felt up and fully checked before entering. The girls only got there bags searched.

We went in and we searched around the area and saw the poker area and calmed a table for our stuff. We headed to the karaoke room. Man, Lila can sing! Me, Ash, Kristina, and Lila sung At the Beginning from the Anatasisa movie. It kept stopping! We never finished the song. Apparently, we didn't suck. No one's ears bled. Lila and Tina must have drown us out. Then I took some photos with other people and got a funny caricature drawn of me and Andrew. I have no eyebrows! It's funny looking. The line was epic though. It was interesting waiting in line...no guy has ever wrapped his arms around me before...I was like "what do I do?" O.O After that me and Andrew sucked up the dance floor. Don't know how to dance. It was a slow dance though when we got up there. More "what do I do?" moments ... And then Noemi started dancing with my date in front of me... Kinda ackward... His friend said something to him about it... His friends tried to make me dance. But I just don't feel the music!! Prom king and queen were announced. Not a surprise Harmony and D.J. won. Another slow dance. After that I went to see if they were still doing photos upstairs! I totally forgot about it! The lady told me to get my shoes on...Back downstairs. Then I couldn't find everyone for the picture...so I missed it... Didn't get one. T^T Prom ended with some sucky songs. Noemi stole Andrew again and I have no idea where they went. Somewhere in the middle.

Then it was time to leave. Peter carried Tina across the grass so she wouldn't get stuck with her heels. Got back in the limo and there was more funny and interesting conversations. Dropped off everyone and went to bed when I got home.

....Then today happened. I was riding a bike, doing awesome, and then the brake wires got caught on the basket when I was turning. I fell, hit my chin, felt myself lose my hearing and then it came back. I was told I was bleedy and I wiped my chin and then was A LOT of blood. I put pressure on it for an hour and my mom took me home. She called the doctor, I discribed the wound and the nurse told me I needed stitches! So I drove to the hospital and waited for them to call me. The doctor took me into a room and made sure I didn't break anything. He told me to lay back and he looked at my face and wound and put some antiseptic on it. OH MY GOD!! It burned like fire! And it started to bleed more. The doctor covered my face and shot me with numbing drugs; right in the wound!! And apparently the needle was huge that he stuck in my face!! Glad I didn't see it! I got 6 stitches. I have to get them removed Thursday. He also fixed up my scratched leg. He washed the dirt out of it and added more BURNING liquid!! FIRE!! Glad it happened after prom...
