I`m pretty mad!

Well, we didn`t go to Mexico today! We got all packed and we got in the shuttle and everything was great. When we had arrived at the Tica Buss Station to get our tickets, they said no busses were going to Mexico today because there are riots and protests by the Mexican border. So, we don`t know what we are going to do yet. We might go tomorrow if it has settled down or we might go to Belize. We aren`t sure yet, we are still thinking about it. It wouldn`t be a big deal if we hadn`t already made hotel reservations! We lost 100 dollars because we had to pay for the hotel room even though we didn`t even use it. But, I guess that`s the way it is :( at least we were able to cancel our hotel reservations for tomorrow so we don`t have to pay ANOTHER 100 dollars! THAT would be bad! Lol. It`s an adventure.
So, I`m not sure what we`re gonnah do but, there`s nothing I can do about right this second so, I`m just gonnah relax and see what happens! I just hope we get back in time for me to still have my party!!! If we don`t, I will probably have it on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. My mom said I won`t have to cancel it, I might just have to have it on another day. So, I`m gonnah go now because my sister wants to get on. Bye!

Lola, Mexico, and School...

Well, a few days ago, we found out what my sister`s birthday (September 28th) present will be...A NEW PUPPY!!! We are sooo excited! Her name is Lola and she is a little Terrier puppy! We have never seen her before but, he people who own her(we know them well from church) said she is white and she is very good. We are not quite sure when we will get her but, it will be some time before October. They have to leave to go back to the States and so, they are giving her to us!
Besides that, nothing very exciting has happened here lately. We have to go to Mexico tomorrow to renew our visas and we will be back on Sunday...I really hate these trips! They are so long and I really don`t like Mexico! But, it will be done soon and then on Tuesday, I will have my birthday party! Hopefully, it will go fast.
Have I told you that I am working ahead on my school work? I don`t remember...anyways, I am! I want to because then I won`t have to do it from October 31-November 23 (while Des is here). So far, it`s going pretty good. It`s been kind of hard but, it`s is totally worth it!!! That way, for the 15 days Des will be here, we can just hang out and do whatever. Then, when we go up into the mountains, we can play with the kids and I can translate and I don`t have to worry about getting behind in school!
So, that is pretty much what has been happening over here! I g2g now so, byeeee!

Well, you know how the Olympics started yesterday? Well, today we are going to have a HUGE Chinese dinner(because the Olympics are in China this time), we`re gonnah have fondue, and we`re gonnah have the Otto's(the family I babysit for) over for it, too. We`re all gonnah watch the Olympics together. It`ll be fun. I love the Olympics! I really like the winter Olympics better, because of the ice skating, but I also like to watch the gymnastics in the summer Olympics. Anyways, it`ll be fuuuun!

Quick Update

Hey, peoples! I just wanted to say that.......I`M DYING MY HAIR!!!!! I`m so excited :) I`m not sure if I`m gonnah go lighter or darker but, I`m gonnah do it on my birthday (September 2nd). I really want to dye it darker but, my mom keeps telling me lighter! AAAAAAAAA!!!! Maybe I`ll just dye it bright pink. JK. I would NEVER do that! Yeah, i think I`m gonnah dye it brown. Probably not too dark but, darker. I totally gonnah get the kind of dye that only stays in for a few weeks, though! Just in case I don`t like it, it won`t matter because it`ll fade away soon......so, yeah! Anyways, I`m gonnah go now. Just wanted to...talk about hair...I guess??? Lol. So, bye!
