Late Night Sleepover and a Weird Dream

So, first off, Kaya and I are going over to Hallie's house tonight. We get to stay up late and then tomorrow, Hallie and Kaya have a project to work on. I should probably bring along some homework to do while they work on their project. Though I don't want to. But tomorrow is Sunday after all and I suppose if I have any questions, I can ask Mrs. Halliwell. Which I'm reluctant to do as you all probably know well.

I missed a question on my math homework the other day. I was wicked sleepy and skipped it because I couldn't think. And we had a quiz today and I skipped three questions and was unsure about my answers on two others. :/ What if Mrs. Halliwell grades my homework sheet and quiz while I'm at her house? It always makes me nervous when I sleep over or spend the day at Hallie's. Do any of you have a teacher who is a friend's parent?

And speaking of Mrs. Halliwell, a few nights ago, I had this really weird dream! My mom, my brother, Peter, and I (along with Pounce and my Ice Bat plush) were staying at Mrs. Halliwell's house! Hallie and her siblings weren't even in the dream-just us and Mrs. and Mr. Halliwell! In the dream, it was late at night so we went to bed. Peter's alarm went off around 2 or 3AM because he was going somewhere. So it woke the rest of us up. Then, me, my mom and Mrs. Halliwell had a random conversation. A little later, I looked for Pounce, who had been hiding. She came out of hiding and I offered her some swiss cheese (I'd had a slice before bed, IRL). Then Ice Bat and I went back to sleep. The next day, my mom must've gone to work or gone out. I was at my computer, surfing the 'net but supposed to be doing homework. Then Mrs. Halliwell comes up to me and tells me that I should be doing my homework and I woke up from my dream. Say what? It was so awkward. And thinking about it makes me a bit nervous about sleeping over tonight-even though I've slept over plenty of times before. I mean, how do you interpret a dream like that?

What is a weird dream that you've had? Have you ever dreamt about someone you know?

The Prestigious Liebster Award

Hey everyone! I'm usually so bad at these award things but I decided to sit down and do this one right now. I've been tagged by Inky for the Prestigious Liebster Award. For this award, you first answer 11 questions from the person who tagged you. Then you come up with 11 questions and tag 11 more people and those people answer the questions you chose. I hope that makes sense, lol.

Here we go. First up, my answers to Inky's Questions:

1) What is your favorite animated movie or TV show? My favorite animated movie is Balto. My favorite cartoon is Sailor Moon. And Lizzie McGuire-it's partly animated! Oh, I also love the Pleasantville movies-especially Pleasantville and the Great Outdoors-it's stop-frame animation. ;)

>2) What is your favorite animal? My favorite animals are sheep and cats.

>3) Which animal are you most like? Hmmm, probably a cat or a little church-mouse. I really don't know.

>4) If you had the chance, would you go into space? Probably not. Unless it's a rollercoaster, I'm not one for heights. I'm also afraid something bad could happen. Could I just get my name on Mars like Nafy Merriman? I love looking at stars and clouds though.

>5) Would you rather go on a boat trip to Alaska or the Caribbean? That's a toughie but I would say Alaska. I'd love to see the Northern Lights. I think you can sometimes see them from around here but I never have.

>6) What is your favorite holiday? Christmas-which is also my birthday! Halloween would be a close second.

>7) Do you speak any other languages? Which ones? Does Pig-Latin count?

>8) Do you collect anything? If so, what do you collect? I collect dolls and stuffed animals.

>9) What is your favorite candy? Almond Joy and Dark Chocolate Lindt Truffles

>10) What do you like to drink when you are especially thirsty? Chocolate milk

>11) What is your favorite outfit? Hmmm, for AG I guess I would have to say the Winter Magic Outfit which is my Christmas outfit. For non-AG, it would be a tie between my pink dress from BeanBunny and my Lizzie McGuire PJs.

Okey Dokey Smokey, here are my 11 Questions for the 11 people that I will tag below.
1) What is your favorite song from the 80's?
2) Who is your favorite Muppet?
3) Would you rather change your past...or know your future?
4) Cotton Candy or Candy Apples?
5) Do you listen to podcasts? If yes, which ones?*
6) Do you have any AG dolls? If yes, which ones?
7) Do you usually do weekend homework on Friday, Saturday or Sunday?
8) Are you a Rebel...or a Royal?
9) What is your favorite candle scent?
10) What book are you currently reading?
11) If you could visit Star Valley (the doll town I live in) where would you go first: The Raspberry Flummery Café; the Star Valley General Store; or the Star Valley Salon?

And lastly, I will tag...
1)6.Le Fabuleux Destin de Sophie Amélie
2)5.Marsali N Taryn's Adventures
3)A Doll's Life
4)Samantha's Space
5)Water Street Girls' Blog
6)The Rhianna and Erin Blog
7)Wendy's Life
8)The Greens and The Roses
9)Pleasant Piper
10)Doll Delight (The Spicys)
11)And lastly...you, yes, YOU. :)

*I'm going to do a little shameless plug for Clarfycast! Clarfycast is a doll town podcast hosted by Rilla and Anna of Star Valley and Clara of Waterloo. ;)

Some Random Updates

Hey guys. Ugh, I am so bad at updating my blog-and I love writing-so that's doubly pathetic. I just don't seem to have as many fun adventures or ideas to post as some of my blogging friends. Things have been pretty quiet and I'm just chilling in my Lizzie McGuire PJs, with Pounce on my lap.

I guess I'll do a quick recap of the last few months. First, a few months ago, Sloane's cat, Salem, ran away. He never came back and she seemed really sad. I don't really talk to Sloane but I know how much I love my kitties and I would hate for something bad to happen to them. So, I had talked to my parents and I decided to give my kitten, Zip (Pounce's kitten) to Sloane. She seemed genuinely heartfelt about it and I think she was happy to have a new cat, even though he can never replace her beloved Salem. So now we just have my cat, Pounce, and Kaya's cat, Licorice, here in the Kent home. I miss Zip but I know he's safe and sound and with someone who loves him.

For Christmas I got a stocking full of candy, a Jingle plush (and Kaya got Bell) and my birthday present was a Yoohoo and Friends plush! He's gray and white and his name is Lemmee and he's a lemur. I think the Yoohoo and Friends plushies are adorable and I love Tessa's Hapee, a purple and white Red Panda. I was excited to get one of my own. :) Oh, I also got a Kitten calendar for my room, for Christmas.

Here are a couple photos of our Christmas presents:

Bell and Jingle:

So far my 2014 has been quiet. I'm still doing the same in school....and, oh shoot! I have a couple of worksheets that I forgot to do. And it's late and I should be in bed. Ugh...I'll have to try to do them before I hand them in tomorrow. On top of that, I got a "C" on my book report and a "B-" on my spelling test. I have a research paper I have to start, too. I'm doing it on Tigers, one of my favorite animals (along with sheep and cats). The notecards are due Friday and I've barely started mine. I'll get on it tomorrow.

Well, goodnight!

P.S. Here's a photo of Kaya's Bell and my Jingle with Missy's Jingle. :)
