I have finished my new blog, and now I'll be making all my posts there. I'm trying not to get all sentimental about this, but as much as I want a fresh start for this blog, it'll be a little sad not going to this blog anymore. But I'm sure I'll be fine once I start posting a bit.
This will be my 193rd, and last post on this blog. I'll definitely keep it open, so I can look back at all the memories I've recorded. Who knows, maybe I'll go through and do a kind of Flashback Friday thing on my blog, covering some of the times I had during this blog. Hm, that'd be fun actually! Anyways, here is the link to my new blog, Life's a Journey: http://intheendyouwillallkneel.blogspot.com/
I know the URL is a bit odd, but when I first made the blog I didn't know what to use, so I just did that. I rather like it, so I decided to keep it. Shows my interesting personality. :) See you all on the other side!

Big Hero 6
Okay, calm down everybody, all is well now. Turns out we didn't have to hire a plumber, but we did have to buy and install a $50 dollar part on the pipe that broke. I woke up to hear that the water was turned back on! Yay! That's such a relief.
Turns out we were actually able to make it to Big Hero 6. It was really good; I enjoyed it very much. We were literally the only people watching it, so we were wandering all around the room, talking about which seats we'd sit in for when Star Wars VII comes out. *Spoilers* I have to say, when Tadashi died in Big Hero 6, it was sooooo sad! I didn't want him to die! *End spoilers*
Well, I suppose I'd better get back to life. But before I do, IT'S ONLY THREE DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY!!! Gahh... I've finally decided what I want to do for my birthday on Saturday.
My plans go as follows: I will wake up, and everyone will be awake before me so I can race up stairs and open presents first thing. We all hang out for a bit, me probably playing with my new stuff (if they are the kind of presents that you would play with) until Mamma and I leave for lunch at P.F. Changs. I'll be having my favorite spicy chicken, which is incredible. We'll return home, hang out, probably play some Wii Games, maybe have a bowling tournament or something, then dinner. I'm having steak fajitas, one of my favorite dinners, oh, and we'll have cheese balls with crackers and homemade jello throughout the day. Then finally we'll watch a movie. I'm hoping to get How to Train Your Dragon 2, but I may have to settle for something else. Maybe we'll finally get around to watching The Return of the King. I'm so ready to start watching The Hobbit movies. I started fangirling a little at the theater when I saw the poster.
So those are my birthday plans! I still can't believe I'm almost sixteen; as I probably keep saying, it's just weird.

Rude Awakening
Well isn't this positively marvelous. Here I am, lying in bed for the night, minding my own business when Daniel says something. I pull out an earplug, and he repeats that he heard something. It was a hissing sound, similar to the fan on my old laptop. So of course I'm like, yeah, it's just my computer. But it sounded too loud, and when I got close my computer was silent. Obviously my adrenalin had kicked in before I even got up. I walked towards the garage, and it was coming from there.
My first though was, dang it, we've got dangerous fumes leaking from pipes or something, and the house could set fire or something. So I'm like, Daniel we need to get upstairs and tell Mamma and Daddy, NOW. (Apparently I react fairly calmly in such situations; I'm quite proud of myself). We raced upstairs, I explained the situation, and Daddy and I raced back down to the garage.
DANG. There's water piling up by the door, and an unknown pip is hissing water loudly. Daddy raced over, while I open the garage door. The water goes pouring out towards the drain, and continues to constantly pour down the driveway. The pip is spitting water everywhere, so we grabbed a flashlight and ran out to this... darn, I forgot what it's called, but we opened up this concrete hole, trying to shut off our water. But that dang this is too darn complicated. We ended up calling 911, asking for assistance. Other than the fact that water was gushing from our house, it was kind of exciting when the fire truck arrived. 'Course we woke up a few people around the neighborhood, and it's gonna cost a small fortune to hire a plumber to fix the damage. What's even worse is we now have no water. No shower, no toilet, sink, drinking water; zilch. Let's just say we're in for quite an interesting time. I don't think we'll be going to the theater to see Big Hero 6 tomorrow.
In conclusion: we are fine, we are alive, but we are without water. Who knows how long we'll last. A few days at most. :P Kidding, we'll find a way.

Recent Ponderings
I've been thinking about my blog, and just general blogging lately. See, I really enjoy having this blog, and while I'm far from expert I like re-decorating it and things. But yesterday I started thinking, and there's a possibility that I'll be closing this blog down. I know! Hear me out though. I have this idea for a new blog to replace this one. It's been great, but my posts are very random, and my blog is basically a journal. That's been fun; but I though it would be cool to start a blog to record more than just my thoughts on life. I would also document my progress in Gaelic, talk about my writing and things I've learned, even write a bit about my history research. Basically bring together all the random blogs I've made into the past into one, big, awesome blog.
If I do, it'll be hard to say goodbye to this blog. I've had it for over a year, and I've loved it. But I'd like a clean slate if I do this.
Why can't I manage more than one blog, you might ask? I've tried, and regularly posting on more than one blog is tough. Especially if they are similar; then you're just voicing the same thoughts in different ways.
To be honest, the more I think about making this blog, the more excited I get, and I think that this may very well one of my last posts. I'll link my new blog to here, so you can keep up with my crazy busy life (kidding, it's hardly busy, but I aim to make it more full). I haven't even decided what to call this new blog, but just be sure, it will be just as crazy awesome as this blog. There's be one big difference though: I'll actually edit the posts. Yeah, I've never done that in the past, so there's been lots of spelling errors. Basically I'm just being lazy, so with this new blog, which I shall set upon he world in the near future, I will eradicate this horrible habit and bunch of laziness.
Okay, I'm getting really excited about the idea of this blog, so I think I'll get started today. And if you know me, it'll probably be done today. But I'm going to make sure it's perfect. So out with the old, in with the new! It's been nice knowing ya! (Don't worry, I still have at least one more post before this is all over).
