 OUTCAST CAME OUT TODAY!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!
 

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE WARRIORS!!!

Outcast by Erin Hunter came out today!!!!

Dawn and I went to Borders after school to go and buy ourselves copies of Outcast. Dawn ran from the car to the store, so I had to run after her. (LOL)We headed directly to the kids' section where the Warriors books are located...and when we got there...THERE WERE NO OUTCAST BOOKS!!!

We FREAKED out and went looking in the New Release section at the front of the store...but the books weren't there either!!!

So we headed to the front of the store to ask one of the Borders people if they knew where it was. The lady looked it up on the computer, but she said she couldn't find anything. So, she headed to the back where the Warriors books normally are and didn't find anything. Dawn looked up the book on another computer, and the computer said that the book was "likely in the store." (DUH...the Warriors website says that the book was coming out today!!!)

Another guy who worked in the store said he'd look for the books for us, since the other girl couldn't find any. Then he asked another lady if she knew, and she said that she'd seen a Warriors book. But the book she saw turned out to be the second manga in the Graystripe manga series.

But...on the same cart...Dawn spotted the word "Outcast" and gave a squeal of excitement...

BECAUSE SHE FOUND THE OUTCAST BOOKS!!!

We grabbed copies and hugged them to our chests and squealed with happiness!!!!

YAY!!!!!!!!

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Warriors SSSOOO much!!!

I also found out that the fourth Percy Jackson book is coming out on May 6th, and when I bought Outcast I got a thing for 30% off the hardcover version of Percy Jackson and The Battle of the Labyrinth when it comes out!!!! EEEEEEEEEEE!!! YAY!!!

I got Dawn into both Warriors and Percy Jackson. She likes cats and Greek mythology.

YAY FOR BOOKS!!!

I love Warriors!!!

Bye!!!

a really really really happy karia_roses

 Parties and Candies and Friends and Sheep
 

My birthday party rocked!!!

List of people who showed up: Dawn, Tailor, Steven, Ryan, Chantel, Mel, Shannon, David, and Michelle!

Diana didn't make it because she couldn't get a ride to the party.

We watched Jeff Dunham movies. We ate tons of candy. We had pizza for dinner. I opened presents. We ate cake and ice cream. We played games like Twister, Apples to Apples (or something like that), and Catch Phrase. I got lots of pictures of people having fun, and some videos, on my digital camera. We learned weird things about each other while we were playing games. Another game we played was a word game where one person starts a sentence and then each person in the circle adds a word to the sentence. We made tons of funny sentences!

Then most of the people left. Ryan was supposed to leave at ten like all the other guys, but he decided to stay for another hour and watch the last Jeff Dunham movie with us before leaving.

Oh! Before I forget! A list of the presents I got: a Bonsly (Pokemon) stuffed animal from David; Princess Ai and Azumanga Dai Oh manga from Steven; a hair straightener and a little, plastic white faced sheep from Dawn; money from Tailor; money and a book about being Pisces from Ryan and Chantel; a bookbag with the words "I'm Not a Plastic Bag" on the side from Mel; and a set of candles and paper that can be used to create wax seals on letters from Shannon.

Dawn, Tailor, Michelle, and Chantel spent the night. We got out air matresses and lots of blankets and pillows and stuffed animals. We were all very tired, but we talked anyway. I can't remember exactly what we talked about, but it was awhile before we all finally agreed it was time to go to sleep.

The next morning, we all woke up and went into the living room to play Apples to Apples again while my parents, my brother, and Ryan (who showed up to pick up Chantel) watched the second Jeff Dunham movie. We had breakfast of eggs, toast, and breakfast burritos...all cooked by my mom.

It was around one o'clock when Dawn decided it was time for her, Tailor, and me to head out and go shopping!!! We're going to an anime convention in May and we went out shopping for our costumes. I didn't look for anything because I pretty much already have my costume, and I didn't have that much money with me anyway. Tailor kept finding things for a costume that was her second choice, and I told her she was getting subliminal messages that she should go as her second choice! It was creepy because we'd head into a store and Tailor would find another part of the costume that was her second choice! It was creepy!!!

And that was my birthday weekend!!!

Not much else has happened since then, other than yesterday when...

I GOT MY SHEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Romeo is SO cute! Yes, I named him Romeo! Casey and his dad brought the two lambs to our high school's FFA school farm. My dad and I went and picked up Romeo and brought him home. Dawn is keeping her lamb (whose name I do not officially know yet) at the school farm. My dad and I spent almost all day Friday cleaning out the sheep pen because it had been overtaken by grass and weeds since it was last used.

My parents are thinking about getting us a goat or two to keep Romeo company! My mom says she feels bad having just one sheep, so we're going to look into buying some pet goats!!! HOW COOL IS THAT???

YAY!!!! I have my sheep now!!!!!!

Buy buy for now!

a happy karia_roses
