Hey okay, so, right now I am watching The Thornberry's Movie. I have not seen this movie for so long!!! since I was little. Like seven or eight. Christine found the case in the garage when she was cleaning it iut but unfortunatly there was no cd in it so I decided to just watch it on youtube.

hey AMICO

HIII

Just if you are wondering, I am still grounded.

But, guess who's room I am in?

................................................

Did you guess?

CHRISTINES ROOM!! or, I guess, my room...

Last night Christine and I stayed up till like six changing rooms. I have all my stuff in her, my, room but she only has a bed in hers cuz she's ganna get a carpet cleaner or something before she moves her stuff in, which is all in the basment. My room...tina's...is a small green, yellow, orange room christine painted herself with a view of the backyard (swing set, fireweed, ancient rainbow painted picnic table) and tina's...my.... room is big, blue and green with cream carpet that has the view of the front yard.

I kinda miss that room, I kinda don't.

I miss the huge window with the like 800 dollar white blinds and the light that came in the window. In the morning sometimes the room was pelted with sunshine. And I miss the green and blue and white walls but me and Christine switched rooms because:

I thought my former room was to be big (it was)

and Christine wanted a change of scenery and if we don't like it, we can always switch back. It's not that hard, our rooms are kinda across from each other.

But now, Maureen is Christines new roommate in the summer because now my room is her room and in the summer Maureen shares that room with somebody.

Well, I gotta go. arrivederci, amico.

If you are my amico.

friend.

20 more days till school day.

blah.

July 28--21 more days till school!!

A terra means grounded in Italian.

ragazza a terra means grounded girl.

Right? Giusto?

three days...

I am grounded.

Of course my mom doesn't know--she's at work.

Okay so this is what happened...

You know how I said before that I was going to play with my friends today? Well, I was and I was at Aarons house with Lilly, Sharisse, Madison, Loren(a) and Aaron and I told Christine I would be at the park but actually we were going to ask if Aaron could come with us and than go to the park but it started raining so we decided to go to Sharisses but we stopped at Taylors first to ask of she could play and than we saw Christine when we were talking to Taylor and I forgot that I was s'post to be at the park and Christine had gone looking for me at the park and she was so mad!!!! She was yelling at me outside in front of my friends. She said that I was grounded. Can sisters ground you? I guess they can. So, I am stuck in this room for three days.

THREE WHOLE DAYS WITHOUT GOING OUTSIDE OR ANYTHING!!

Well, right now I am reading The Mysterious Benedict Society and The Perilous Journey by Trenton Lee Stewart and talking to Maureen on facebook.

In a moment everything can change--cambiamento!!

I like animals, Italian, music, taking pictures, being with my family and BFFs, watching gymnastics, going on adventures, finding stuff, books, writing, my dog, biking, the beach, going on walks, windy days, facebook, traveling, the sunlight, THE SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't like school, fruit flies, swimming lessons, camps, people reading my journal (duh!!!), being in crowded places, the dark (I'm not scared of it through), fighting, school, school, school....school....school school school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ciao!!

OH MY GODD---SSSSHHHH!~!!
SHARISSE IS BACK!!

Every summer sharisse goes to the phillipines, japan, california, and minnesota....FOR TWO MONTHS!

she doesn't always go to those places through but---LUCKY PERSON!!

yesterday me and taylor slept over at her house and I am SO GLAD I didn't have to go to this Bible Camp at my Church--St. Patricks. no offense or anything I just am super scared of lessons and camps and meeting new people and stuff...you could call me a shy one but I am not shy at all with my friends and family.

Right now this is me:

Nails: Orange nail polish Sharisse put on. bitten down.

Hair: Normal. Wavy and Brown-Red. Bangs.

Eyes: Dark Brown!!!

Clothes: Gray t-shirt and blue jean capris....

Mood: Happy!! Excited because I get to see Aaron and Loren and Cameron and Lilly again!!!!!

Bracelet: my sisters I think. I found it in her desk, which is mine now.

Necaklace: Silver Chain. A Irish Marriage symbol I think that is hanging from the chain. My Aunt Sheila gave it to me. I am half Irish.

So, ganna hang out with everyone.

arrivederci amici (goodbye friends in italiano.) I think.

July 22 11:28 pm

I FEEL SO GOOD! GREAT! WONDERFUL!

I FEEL FREEEE!!

I prayed while I was taking a shower.

It is very hard to explain what I prayed about but right now I am going to wash my face, brush teeth and dry out my hair and have a snack and watch a movie.

I am cold!

I am going to get in very warm blankets!!

goodnight and goodbye!

my story!

Shellbi, Lioli, Amulet, Ying and Yang, Crescent, The Parents, Celestio Bianchi, Mahalia Faranze, Sheila's story.‏

From:	Sheila
Sent:	Wed 7/22/09 4:02 PM
To:	Sheila

"Lioli? LIOLI?!" Shellbi was shaking me like crazy and yelling my name a thousand times a second.

"What!?" I moaned, my face heating up, my head throbbing ridiculously.

"Wheres Amulet!?!!!!!! oh no! I bet Magdalez took him!!" She yelled.

She must be worried.

"what time is it?" I groaned, not really wanting to know. It must be late, even if it was summer it was a snitch dark out.

"Who cares!!!" Shellbi screeched loud enough that Kansas could have woken up including my parents upstairs and all the kids down the street.

"Wait, who's Amulet?" I said, suddenly remembering what she was screaming about. "Remember, Amulet is my horse," Shellbi said more calmly.

I nearly fainted, I mean seriously! I'm crazy about horses and I'm sure I would've noticed like a palomino horse walking around the house but the thing is, i hadn't.

"WHAT?!" I screamed, accidentally waking up the town closest to our town, the kids parents down the street, and I wondered why no police were here yet.

"What do you mean what?" Shellbi asked, tipping her head.

"you have a horse here all summer and you don't tell me? You are a bad sister." I say,

narrowing my eyes, and getting up to turn on the light.

"Hey, its not my fault! Mom said not to tell you, through I don't know why." She said fast, looking out my window. "Will you help me find him?" She added after a moment of silence, looking back at me.

"I don't know, sis, it's awfully late and all..." I said sadly, looking at Shellbi's begging face.

"Well...Okay. I will!" I said, grinning.

"You Promise! Right, Lioli?" She asked.

"Right! I promise.."

I realized I was still in my pajamas.

"Hey, Shel, do you mind if I kick you out of my room so I can get dressed?" I asked.

Shellbi shook her head, backed out of the room and closed my door. I sighed, standing up and opened my drawers one after another after I found some capris and a t-shirt. It was hard finding clothes that fit you in this house. We rarely went shopping, because my parents were almost never home, and when they were, they just ignored us, or they would bury us with presents. They are wealthy lawyers, and are always in another state or something. When they are gone, Shellbi and I are usually left with Mrs. Mahalia, an ancient lady who everyone loves. Whenever she comes over, which is almost every day, she always brings her ancient fluffy cat, Gaia, named after the Greek name for Earth.

Gaia has been to dozens of places with Mrs. Mahalia. When Mahalia was younger she used to travel and work everywhere around the world. She had got Gaia in Tokyo, she had said, when she was 25. Mahalia documented every place she ever went to, took pictures, bought souvenirs and wrote in her journal all about where she worked and the people she saw. She had exactly 51 journals, because she had gone to 59 places over the past 30 years, and she had let Shellbi and I pore over all her journals and look at all the pictures and post cards and stuff she had collected. We could almost taste the food at the restaurant she had worked at as a waitress for a month in Rennes, France, and see that man, Celestio Bianchi, "a pure blood Italian, with black hair, stunning features and everything a Italian would have" I recall, who had fallen in love with Mahalia at first sight in London at the hotel she stayed at. Mahalia only had one brother, Aramis, and they didn't get along well.

"LIOLI!!! Are you done yet?" Shellbi asked, annoyed.

Without waiting for an answer she pushed open my door and slammed it shut, which parents hate, but my mom and dad sleep very, very good or maybe they just didn't care we were making all this noise at 3 a.m. Actually, they probably weren't here, Shellbi and I usually can't tell the difference from them being here and not being here, which is very, very sad.

"Come on, Lioli! We are losing daylight, and Amulet!" Shellbi whined.

I rolled my eyes, even through a horse was at stake, and headed upstairs, Shellbi happily being dragged by me. We stopped to get something to eat in the kitchen. I grabbed some waffle mix and plugged in the waffle iron and started to make some waffles -delicious waffles!- As Shellbi stared at the Alvera on the white shiny counter of our very tidy kitchen triple the size of my room of our parents mansion.

"I smell flowers!" I sang

Shellbi giggled, for the Alvera was no flower, it was a kind of cactus.

"At nine we should go to to Yin and Yangs shop if we can't find Amule-" I tried to finish but Shellbi cut in.

"We will find Amulet. We won't need to go Yin and Yang's shop."

I frowned. Yin and Yang were two Chinese brothers who owned a shop that was full of magical items near our home, on Kalifornsky Avenue. They were totally different. Yin had a big, sleek black dog that had red eyes named Fire, but Yin always called him in Chinese. He always spoke Chinese actually, he didn't know a speck of English, but Yang did. He was absolutely me and Shellbi's best friend. He had helped us more than we could remember. He owned a white dove, that he sent letters with. It's kind of like Harry Potter. The dove, named Charlotte, a nice and easygoing English name doesn't even need to know the name of the person he wants her to send it too. She was like, psychic and if she were human, would totally be British. Yin and Yang in a way, were actually Yin and Yang. Light and dark.

"But, Shellb! Please! I really want to see Yang and Cres-" Again she cut in.

"CRESCENT!?" She shrieked shrilly. That was Yang and Marigold's daughter. "SHE STILL LIVES THERE!?"

I sighed. "She's 15, Shellbi," I replied, rolling my eyes.

Shellbi rolled her eyes too. "I thought she would've ran away by now because of Yin." She said, which probably would've made totally perfect sense if Crescent was not always at her best friends Shavonnes house. When I saw Crescent it was always Shavonne that or Shavonne said this blah blah blah...But, of course, I did not tell Shellbi this. She wouldn't understand.

"Anyways," Shellbi said, stretching. "Why, again I ask, why, are we still in this god forsaken huge mansion instead already deep in the woods with a whistle and flash light and calling Amulets name?" She asked.

"Oops!" I cried. I accidentally had forgotten about the waffle baking in the waffle iron. I slowly opened the waffle thing up and burst out laughing. It was burnt, burnt, burnt! It looked like my cooking, even through waffles are totally easy to make. And I think I didn't put any egg in it...!!

"Plan B!" Shellbi screamed, running up snatching up low fat strawberry cornflake cereal and tried to laugh evily.

Nope. Not scared enough.

"Um...Okay...You do realize that is low fat strawberry cornflake cereal, moms cereal, not Froot Loops and plus, we still have a lot of batter left."

10 seconds later...

Things I have learned from my family---

1. If its really freezing outside, go inside a library (if you are desperate, of course.) There are tons of books to keep you warm.

2. Never marry a man that drinks.

3. That I have to write a book. It will bring me freedom, happiness, and I can do whatever I want todo. It will give me money to be free. It is my moms legacy to me. (M says, its sheila's legacy, mom has nothing to do with it!)

4. Just keep writing.

5. How will the world end if its already tomorrow in Australia?

6. Always wash your face.

7. Never say anything to an adult, espacially a parent, when they are yelling at you. It might make them more mad.

8. Never let your mom see that your feet are dirty. She will annoy you until they are spotless.

9. Never let your dad hear you fight with your mom about taking a shower. He might say "go take a shower! what are you, a pig?"

June somethin oh my gosh whoops July 19!

I just watched 'click'.

It made me realize something.

Am I really embracing life?
Nope.

What I mean is, am I really living the life I want to live?

Just think what I'm doing right now. On Blogger, YouTube and document.

Do I really want to be doing this?

Nope.

Life is kinda like a wish you can fulfill yourself.

You can choose not to (Sit around your house. Eat nachos and drink Rootbear from Bears Tooth everyday)

Or, you can choose to (go swimming, have fun, go hiking, spend time with your friends and relatives, ect)

I think all the people are doing the 2nd one right now.

Oh yeah! You know how I luv life quotes? Heres one for ya.

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

I saw Harry Potter~!!

So, well, good evening to you all...

I saw the 6th harry potter movie at Century!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Most of it was kinda made up and they left out A LOT of parts from the book!!! I guess I liked it half and half but whos asking me anyways?

Right now I am reading Harry Potter and the half-blood prince.

I guess im kinda in a 'harry potter mood.' :D

No offense, but personally, I do not know why people like a Twilight so much.

And the books weren't very good either :(

I think the only book I liked in that series was New Moon.

Anyways, I am not tired at all!

I fell asleep at 7 or 6 pm reading Harry Potter last night and woke up at 11.

18 hours...wow.

I think thats the longest I slept this summer!!

Well, right now my moms upstairs, my dad is watching a movie (yes, my dad is home!!! he's a fisherman) Maureen is at a play with Ian, and Christine is with Jason/Link/Green Pants in her room.

I am about to eat dinner so toodilio or whatever....

^_~

goodnight and good luck and I hope you succeed in whatever you do tomorrow (except of course murder, and stealing and certain things like that!!!!!)

And I guess I lost the bet.

I didn't luv it completly and utterly as much as I excpected I would.

harry potter!

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a amazing movie, in my opinion.

It is totally worth watching one, two, three times.

A huge 2 thumbs up.

But that wasn't what I was planning to talk about, was it?

The 6th Harry Potter movie is coming out tomorrow.

I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted todo that in caps to really show how truly excited and amazed I am , but I decided not to, as you can clearly see.

Unfortunatly, Maureen, Christine and I cannot go to the theaters to attend this great production because we are going camping with my brother and my dad.

That is very good through because than the day we decided to go it won't be very so crowded.

yay! (I am trying to be very polite)

Anyways, right now I am watching

Harry Potter 6 - Behind the Magic (ITV's Movie Special) [Part 4/5] on youtube.

Tada!
