Unicorns, Babies, and Cupcakes

Well...

It's been 10 days, but I'm back again! So far, it's going better than my other attempt to revive this old blog! :D (Look back about 2 posts. You'll see it.)

And this time, I bring tidings of great joy! Great joy, in this case, is also known as Robot Unicorn Attack!
Once you do indeed begin to play, you can kiss your life goodbye. Trust me.

I discovered this wonderful concoction of flash game, rainbows, dolphins, robots, and unicorns last summer, and as my friends will attest to, I talked of little else for about a week or more. (It may have been up to a month. I don't really remember. The time line gets a little iffy in my brain at that point.)

The reason I'm finally posting this now is that this game recently experienced a revival at my school. I don't know where the heck it came from, but for once, this man was on top of the trend! That's right! I knew what all the cool kids were talking about!

Needless to say, my friends, who had heard all about this game before, suddenly started playing it and now understand my seemingly-insane obsession with robot unicorns. This lovely little picture illustrates the process of addiction pretty well if you ask me.

(This is unfortunately not mine. It belongs to epicponyz.com and google for finding it for me.)

And so, dear reader, I now pass this wonderful game on to you. Play it. Love it. Share it. Rainbows forever.

Also, I offer you excuses as to my prolonged absence from The Blog. I've been in the wonderful national capital of Washington D.C. since last Saturday until Tuesday.

Which, in hindsight, doesn't explain my absence until now... But hey!

Once again, I made the voyage to DC for the annual March for Life to support babies everywhere. I love babies.
And while I was there, I was able to stop in to a neat little cupcake store with my friends called Georgetown Cupcakes! (I'm in a promoting mood today, I guess.) The women in my group were quick to inform me that this little cupcakery was well-known to the American TV-viewing public as the star of the show DC Cupcakes. I didn't so much care for that, but the cupcakes were, indeed, DEEEEElicious!

My favorite had to be the peanut-butter chocolate lava fudge cupcake. That's right.

Peanut-butter-lava-fudge!

You couldn't name a cupcake anything more delicious than that!

For a bit I was afraid I was doomed to become somewhat of a cupcake snob because of my experience, but yesterday, this was quickly banished by my consuming a half dozen funfetti cupcakes with dark blue frosting at a friend's birthday party. I guess my tummy simply can't resist the wonders of a mini cake in a wrapper.

And so, reader, I must leave you. Enjoy the unicorns and go find yourself a cupcake to eat (preferably funfetti to match the rainbows!) but don't go too crazy, alright?

À bientôt!

O.O.

It's Friday!

FINALLY!

I've been waiting all week for this day to come, and now that it's come, it's been an awesome day. I watched movies in two classes, had a test in another, a quiz in another, and no homework in any class except English! The only bad thing about it is that I have play practice 6 - 8, so no plans for me...

But I have Swedish Fish!
SCORE!

Tomorrow looks like it'll be a pretty regular day until the afternoon, and I get to go to a partay later! Woot woot!

In other words, let's hope this'll be a fun weekend! I hope you all have a great one, too!

Caloric Baked Goods, MORPing, and Mathematics

Well, yesterday was quite an awesome day for a particularly uneventful Saturday.

I had to get up bright and early after 7 AM to get up for church because I had to altar serve, and then my family went out to breakfast, and then I actually got some cleaning done in my room! Note I said some, not a lot. But still, it was better than nothing.

And then, my little brother, my mother, and I made pączki (pronounced pwnch-key (Like PWN with a chee added to it))!

In case you don't know what it is, it's leavened dough, wrapped around a small amount of plum jam, and then fried and glazed!

It tastes very much like a dougnut, and they're made for special occasions in Poland, where both of my parents come from, hence us making paczki.

Here in America, especially around my town, they're really popular around Fat Tuesday (the day before Lent starts). But, being the picky native that I am, I really don't like the ones the bakeries make around here... They're way too much like jelly donuts than pączki... But my mothers, on the other hand... Mmmm... -dies of ecstasy-

In other news...

I was invited to a Morp yesterday, but, alas, I couldn't go. Morping, according to my friends, is when you go around dressed all fancily (dresses, ties, suits, etc.) to places like the party store, movies, mall, and any other place where jeans/tees are the norm! Personall,y I think grocery shopping at Wal-Mart would be especially amusing!

Perhaps I'll go next time, and bring along a whole list of fun places to go! :D

In recent news...

I have a butt-load of homework to do. I guess that's what I get for putting it off since Thursday.

So here I go to finish that backpack full of geometry, English, French, history, and chemistry! Au revoir for now!
