Check this out.
This is all about my old loft bed. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!
Mine
Wood, screws, teeth marks. Three things, thousands of memories. The first time I saw it was in the store, clean of any marks made. It smelled like wood. My sister and I each got one, one of the ones for children. I chose, I remember, and my sister agreed. A man brought them to our house in a big truck. It looked like a giant square box. It felt like we were moving. It said something about furniture on it.
The first night was the best. Audrey and I climbed up our ladders that seemed like giant bean stocks. It smelled like wood. We shared a room. When we were mad we would stand on the very tips of our toes to reach the edge so that we could hang sheets to make forts. She wrote our names on the bottom. I don’t know why.
American Girls lived underneath so we could make sure nothing happened. We said good night and tucked them in so that they would be warm. They were real to us. I used to think the climbed up and played next to me while I was asleep. We played with them so much I can’t really remember anything else I did at that age.
Mom or dad would come in and kiss us goodnight way up high, the American Girls way down low. I used to bite it. It smelled like wood. Sometimes my parents would catch me and tell that if I wanted to get a different one without rails. I said no. I love this one.
My stuffies would get to sleep up there with me. All of them, until I got too big and they got too many. They each had names, Honey Bear, Moon Face, Spot, Chocolate, Choco for short, and Ana May. And many, many more. Ana May was my favorite. My grandma gave her to me because she said we look alike. I used to tell everything to her. She would listen to me. Sometimes, she was the only one.
She wasn’t my only friend. My friends would sit on it with me saying I wish I had one like this or This thing is as tall as a tree. It smelled like wood. We would talk for hours. We would gossip, plan, or just play with something.
My bed was there for me when even Ana May wasn’t. It was there when my grandpa died and when my cousins were born. Through the good and the bad. The easy and the hard. Good, Bad, Easy, Hard. It was mine. I grew out of a lot of other things like American Girls, Forts, and sitting on my bed for hours. Whether it was just me or a couple friends, it was always my place to be me.

Ojai
I’m currently in ojai visiting family from my dads side. It’s been fun, but Ojai is kinda small. Today, my dad took my cousin and I to Santa Barbra, which is about a half hour away. The shopping opportunities are amazing though. They have Juicy couture, Banana Republic, lucky Brand, Macys, Pac Sun, Sunglasses hut, Angl, Bebe, and much, much, more. We went to a diner called rubys diner. Their milkshakes are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!!!!! Yum YUM YUM!!!!

New Room
Lately I’ve been working a lot on my room because in june, my dad and i are going to redo it. It’s a traditionish kinda thing because my sister did it after 7th grade too. I have pretty high ceilings so we’re talking about building a loft. I’m starting to think otherwise however, because the ceiling is at an angle so part of the ceiling would be two feet tall. But there are tradeoffs. I’m a bag person. I LOVE bags. My closet is right under where we would build the loft so I could hang bags from the new ceiling. The ceiling would be low though. O well.

One of My Writings….
The snow. The Ocean. The Rain.
The Water.
That’s where I’ll be.
Waiting. Watching. Hoping you’ll come.
Be my rescuer! I cry from where I stand in the water filled land.
But when I look, It is only an amusement park.

Weekend
OK, shes weird. My friend and I went sailing yesterday on a 50 foot sailboat. It was Uber funness. We also went to a giants game with my mom and one of her friends. yeah. It was totally awesome because the giants won which makes anything awesome. But actually, I don’t really care who wins because it’s BASEBALL! And wwho doesn’t like baseball. Well, actually, I do know some people so i guess it doesn’t count but still!
yeah. And thats my super exciting weekend.

Foot Update
Just for those of you who don’t know, my foot was operated on on December 14, because I had a bunion on both my feet. Now I only have on my left foot. My right foot now feels WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, on the slightly less fab side of life, I had to stay home today because I had MAJOR lower back pain. Now it only hurts a little, but it was awful. Man, it’s like I’m prone to injury! I have this knee that we call the “cursed knee” because EVERYTHING happens to it. I have to many scars to count!
Sooo, yeah!

OOOOOOO!!!!!! MEXICO!!!!
My family and i just recently (Sunday) came back from wonderful Puerto Vallarta! (Pardon my Spelling). It was absolutely lovely. We stayed in the Mayan Palace which is part of Grupo Mayan Resorts. Personally, I think it sounds like a fish, but that’s just me. It’s a resort and has the second biggest pool in Central America. I brought back these cool necklaces for my pals, which I haggled myself! (I’m very proud, and modest) lol. Anyway, that was fun. I’m going back to Puerto Vallarta in the summer with a school group to do an intensive in spanish. That’ll be fun because it’ll be a better experience of the actual city. Anyway……Yeah.
