HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLEN!!!

Uhh I guess Imma have to write in here. ok hmmm... Friday after school, I went home with Camille just because. We did the usual "watch old videos of ourselves and laugh" thing. We watched A Showtime Christmas 2000. I played the ghost of Christmas past. I don't even remember those lines. I was soo tall, and I hated my voice. Ughh.. We also watched Camille's eighth and tenth birthdays. OMG!! Whoa... very old! We all looked soo sooper young. The funny thing though was that it was me, Camille, and Monica with Janelle, Rina, and Paula. Oh man!! Those were the days. I kinda miss it, but of course I know not everything can stay the same. We thought we were so cool singing those songs. haha yeah!! Then OMG... we heard the Angelz's song... yeah that song we made up with the help of NSYNC. Yeah, it's very old!!! I read once in Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul, which Monica gave me years ago, about this person who never really fit in. Then he or she (can't remember) found him/herself amidst the kidergarten group. See, this kindergarten group was the group that he/she'd grown up with since kindergarten. He/she never really talked to them or hung out with them, until he/she realized that this was the group that knew him/her most. Today, I found Camille's birthday card for me in the birthday bag it came with. I guess I missed it 4 months ago. In the card, she made me this crossword puzzle, and it made me smile. Not only was it really creative, but the answers to the puzzle could not be answered by just anybody. Props to her for making it. It really made me realize that she knew me more than probably most of the people I usually talked to at school. Then I remembered, on Friday, as I was reading Monica's yearbook note, all those things we did as kids. Everything that she wrote to me in that note was comforting. Even though we aren't as close as before and live totally different lives... all of us, nothing can really beat this ancient relationship of ours. Yup! I don't know if that makes sense, but I think that Monica and Camille will always remain the people who knew me most. They're the ones who know my childhood. No matter what happens, there will always be those memories. People are preoccupied with so much stuff now.

ok anyway, after that we watched this tape of me, Camille, and Rina baking this humungo cookie last year. That was funny!! but sadness!! We broke the tape somehow. I don't know how, but that sucks coz I really liked that video.

k then Saturday, me, my mom, and dad went to Maquel's 3rd birthday party. Cute little boy!! I just want to squeeze his cheeks.

Today, as you all know is Ellen's birthday. So, I went to her party. Gosh!! I really miss those kid parties witht the jumper and the pinata and everything. Ellen's party rocked!!! Good food and fun fun!!! The people who went made it really fun. Mayn... these last few days have made me realize so much. I get too caught up with stuff. Now, I'm feeling much better.
