18 Days Til Birthday, And Counting!
^_^ Well, I'm feeling rather happy right now. Nothin' real bad has happened in the last couple of days, so tis all good.

Plus, I think what helps in my feel happy mood is that Ducky (my sister) and I got our mom a gift a couple days ago, and she really liked it. We were at Fred Meyer (a variety store), and we saw The Incredibles DVD, and bought it.
We were worried that, when our mom came home, she would say, "Guess what? I got The Incredibles!" lol Luckily, such a thing never happened.
So, yeah... we gave her a gift, and she liked it. ^_^ I like giving out gifts to people, better than receiving. You always feel good after doing so.

And, there was something else that happened last Friday that's worth mentioning.
One of our friends was going to be in this Jazz concert at her junior high school, and she invited us (and when I say "us", I mean Ducky, my mom and my dad, and myself). Since it was only polite to accept, we went. I had a good time, I don't know about my mom. They were serving dessert... chocolate cake and cheesecake and such, so I would've been satisfied even if the band sucked. But, they were really good, considering the fact that they're only junior high students.
During the whole concert, people were free to dance if they wished, and some did, but never a lot of people. I wanted to get up and dance, but the thing is... I don't really know how. I've never taken any lessons, and I could really hurt myself trying to imitate the stuff on TV.
The last song was a real up-beat tune. It was called the "Swing Song" or something, but it sounded a lot like "Sing, Sing, Sing With A Swing" (the song in The Mask). Either way, it was really cool, and I REALLY wanted to dance then, but I didn't.
Then, they did an encore, and I couldn't help myself. I got up, and just started moving. At one point, I did something with my knees, and a bunch of people applauded. (I bet most of them were older people, who have no clue what kind of dances kids are into these days, and whatnot.)
Later on, after the concert, this lady came up to me and asked, "How'd you learn to dance like that? Me and my husband were just sitting there wondering 'How can she do that?'"
My natural response was, "I didn't!" (As in, I didn't learn to dance at all.) I was very flattered...
I mean, being able to trick middle-aged people into thinking that I, a dorky white girl who's never had a dance lesson in her life, into thinking that I CAN dance... *sniff* there's just something special about that!

One more thing of importance... I'M ON SPRING BREAK!!! *dances* Finally! ^_^ I can take this time to finish my report! w00t!

And, that's all folks!

Ta!

~God Bless~
