remember this??
so i was looking through our old assignments and everything and LOOK WHAT I FOUND!!
"An ATM serviceman drops a wad of bills and leaves without noticing" (assignment was to expand on that)
____________
Albert walked alone along the aisle of the mall, slurping down the last of his super-huge-enormous-king-size milkshake. He liked coming to the mall on Fridays, because the weekly Cabbage Fest took place at the cabbage store at 1:10 each week. Before Cabbage Fest started, Albert would walk around the mall by himself, just observing the different people there.
Today, Albert strolled around the Food Court and walked over to the ATM machines to get money for a new super-huge-enormous-king-size milkshake. There was a serviceman at the machine, opening it and closing it again. When he saw Albert behind him, he nodded, finished checking the machine quickly, and left. Upon leaving he dropped a large wad of bills on the floor. Neither the serviceman nor Albert noticed. The serviceman was gone, so Albert went to the machine and withdrew the amount of money he needed. When he began to leave the machine, he saw the wad of bills.
"Wow!" he exclaimed. He looked through. There were a bunch of 20's, some 50's, and even a few 100's. Albert was stunned. He didn't know what to do. He pocketed the money and hoped to bump into the serviceman again. In other news though, Cabbage Fest was starting in just 2 minutes! Albert decided to buy his super-huge-enormous-king-size milkshake later. He ran to the escalator, which took him to the 2nd floor where the cabbage store was.
Cabbage Fest never got boring, ever. All kinds of famous people came regularly. Just by looking around him Albert could usually spot Aunt Jemima, Oscar Meyer, and Santa Claus. At Cabbage Fest, each week they all took a random person out of the mall and put them in the center of a circle of people in the cabbage store. The person won't really know what's going on. Usually the person in the middle thinks that everyone is going to throw cabbage at him/her and kill him/her, but actually, each person there gives the person in the center one button, until, at the end, the person in the center has enough buttons to start a collection. Then the person is happy, and everyone gets together and has a cabbage social. Albert loved giving people buttons, but most of all he loved the free cabbage in the social.
Albert rushed into the circle and looked in to see a little girl of maybe 3 or 4. She didn't look nervous, like most of the people usually did, but rather she looked excited.
"And now," boomed a deep voice, "Cabbage Fest begins!" Everyone cheered. "Our guest today is named Timothy! Timothy, wave to everyone!"
The little girl Timothy smiled and waved. Then the first person gave her a button. They went around in a circle. Albert gave her a large, blue owl button. Then the cabbage social began. Albert still had his wad of bills. He shrugged, deciding he probably wouldn't see the serviceman again. He stuffed the wad of bills into the donation jar for the cabbage store.

hehehe well i read that and i felt all sentimental so i posted it. =) i don't know why but i couldn't find those beginning basic ones, like the first one where bertram got killed by cabbage and where i got killed for some reason or other that had to do with buttons. but whatever, this story is fine. =)
so i had a pretty dramatic up-and-down day. in the morning i really wanted to wear my green shoes and i couldn't find them anywhere, so i freaked out and pretty much searched the whole house and couldn't find them. so i put on different shoes and went to school feeling depressed because those were my favorite shoes. then at school i found out i got into the advanced math class this unit which really surprised me because (at least at chinese school) math isn't really my strong point and the advanced class is seriously HARDCORE nerdy, so i was pretty happy about that. =) then at gym we ran the mile and i broke 8 minutes which i'd never done before, and that made me happy too. (i know 8 minutes is crummy but it's pretty good for me so be quiet. :P) and at the end of gym my friend was like "gosh my knee hurts. i need my knee brace!" and then i go "yeah i need my knee brace too!" (i don't have a knee brace, i was just joking) and she turns purple and goes "geena. SHUT. UP" (she literally said it that loud) and storms away and i was like "WELL, someone's a little touchy today!" and i went to lunch feeling a little annoyed and then a few seconds later she sat next to me and apologized so then everything was good again. do you know why everyone gets mad at me? the ONLY reason i know of that people tell me is "because i don't take anything seriously". like, i've literally been SLAPPED before because i made a joke at the wrong time. geez lighten up please. then i had cross country and we went to chippin' farm where we got lots of candy and i stuffed all the candy in my sports bra which ended up looking really funny and lumpy. and right when i got home i went around the house again looking for my green shoes and after maybe 30 minutes I FOUND THEM!!!!!!! IN MY ROOM!!!! and i swear when i found them my mood on a scale of 1-10 went up to a 13.7. it was amazing. :D
OH and i have a funny story too! i don't know how many of you will read it because this post is getting reeeally long but yesterday we had a sub in french, and he was a really old man. so when he was taking the roll call he read my name "gheena" (like with a hard g instead of prounouncing it like j) and i didn't know he meant me so i didn't say anything. then he looks around the room and calls "GHEENA! GHEENA!!!" and i was confused and didn't know whether i should say anything because gheena is not my name. and then the sub gets absolutely frantic because he figures he's saying it wrong so he's spazzing and yelling "GHEENA! GHEENA CH.. GHEENA CHERR, CHERRY! WHERE'S GHEENA CHERRY CHERRY? GHEENA?" and i started cracking up and i was like "OHH that's me!" and everyone started laughing and the sub didn't know why. LOL.
okay well i've been typing long enough. =)
XO!

That story was SOOOOOO funny, but it was waaaaaaaaaay better when you read it.
Green in my favorite color too. I'm wearing my green Siena sweatshirt right now.
My prompt was something about a guy walking down the street and getting hit in the head with a golf ball.
I don't take things seriously enough either. I usually talk my way out of it though.
Green all the way!!! Yeuh. Oh yeah and my prompt was the person got drafted into the army. My brother is only 9!!!
