My parents just left for Reno for the weekend - I have the house to myself! My brother's here, too, but he always runs off with his friends so I'm sure he'll be somewhere else most of the time. Actually, I probably will be too. But oh well.
I'm getting my hair done tonight - I'm excited!! Gabi is amazing! =)

Mission Peak
Brandon and I hiked Mission Peak this morning. Our plan was to hike to the top, watch the sunrise, and then hike down. I picked him up a little after 3:00, and we parked near the trailhead around 3:30. We made it to the top around 5:30, but it was so windy! We were freezing our butts off. So at 5:50 we said tootle-loo to the top of the mountain and worked our way down. We finished around 7:00 and then enjoyed some hashbrowns at McDonald's.
I have to babysit today around 2:00, and then I have work from 5:30-9:30 tonight; I don't know if my legs will be able to take it!
I'm going to bed now :)
Goodnight.

Homework!
For one homework assignment I had to record myself sharing a brief anecdote, so here you get a scenario that could happen to any typical 5-year-old.
ASL -> English
When I was young, like age 5 or 6, I had this friend from school whose mom had a really thick accent. I'm not sure where she was from but I had a hard time understanding her. I remember one day I was playing over at their house, and at lunch time his mom asked me what I would like. I said, "I don't know, anything is okay." She offered me a sandwich so I said "sure!" She asked what kind, and I thought about it for a bit, and decided on tuna. She then asked if I wanted it grilled, to which I replied "yeah, sure!" and then continued playing. When she brought me my sandwich I looked at it, and then at her, and asked her why it was cooked. She was puzzled and said I told her I wanted a grilled sandwich. I said, "Well, yeah, because I don't want a boy one!" Get it? Because of her accent I thought she had asked if I wanted a girl sandwich.

It's April!
Spring break is over. :(
The thing about spring break, is that once it's over, I'm so ready to be done with school, and it becomes really hard for me to get back in the swing of things. I think that's where being on the quarter system would come in handy - after spring break it's new classes time, which would make it way easier for me to be any kind of motivated. But the starting in early January and getting out in late June makes it not worth it. Hooray for semesters! ...But seriously. I'm so ready for summer break.
Good news: I got my car back Tuesday night! Oil leak fixed, brakes in primo condition-o, and new top! No more holes in the ceiling for me!
Bad news: Tuesday during the day I drove my parents' car to school and was fined $35 because I completely forgot to get my parking permit from my car. I was anticipating having had it back by then.
