The other day, Queen Kelstiki was lonely in the Tiki Tower, so she called her dear friend, the Great Robiniski. They hadn't seen each other for quite a long while, so they decided to meet at the Tiki Tower within the week.
The activity (and inactivity...) that followed was astounding! Queen Kelstiki and the Great Robiniski passed the time playing DDR, watching "A Knight's Tale," vegetating, sleeping, eating, but most of all, talking!! That was probably the best part, for Queen Kelstiki had been quite deprived of such female bonding.
Needless to say, both were quite exhausted from staying up till 3:30 am, but that was nothing a little make-up couldn't hide. ; )

First Monopoly, then the World!
Today Laina and I were bored (of course).
Kelsey: What do you want to do?
Laina: I dunno.
Kelsey: Wanna play a board game?
Laina: Like what?
Kelsey: I dunno... Othello, or Monopoly?
Laina: Nah. Well. I guess we could play Monopoly.
Kelsey: Kay.
(5 minutes later)
Kelsey: So... wanna go play now?
Laina: Yeah, I guess.
(10 minutes later)
Kelsey: Laina, how come you have so much money?!
Laina: I didn't buy all the property I landed on, unlike someone I know...
(15 minutes after that)
Laina: I'm winning! Ha! I'm building on Endor!
Kelsey: >__< Oh no! I might have to pay you zillions of dollars! GAh...
(Later)
Kelsey: Heehee, now I have Yavin Four and all of Tatooine! And they've all got star-ships! MWAHAHA.
Laina: O__O I'm gonna die.
Kelsey: >:D
(2 hours later)
Laina: I'm depressed.
Kelsey: I won!! Woo!!
By the end of the game, I owned one property from Hoth, all four space-ships, Tatooine complete with star-ships, Yavin Four with star-ships, Cloud City, the Throne Room of the Death Star, both utilities, and all of Endor, with three cities each.
I am ruler of the Star Wars Galaxy!!
All hail Queen Kelstiki!

So one day I got on this plane...
I haven't posted in quite a while, and I would like to extend my greatest apologies. However. I have a very good excuse.
I was in Germany!!
My travel across the Atlantic entailed Queen, singing the Little Mermaid song, cankles, cabinet-sleeping, Pokemon, dancing, more dancing, Wal Mart, Uno, pen tattoos, finding the love of my life (see second picture) and chocolate!
Vielen dank, meine Eltern!
There is no possible way that I could do justice to one of the best experiences of my life in one blog entry, so if you're at all curious about how it was, talk to me in person. Or steal my journal and read about all my deepest emotions and reactions during the trip. But I'd rather you didn't do that.
Oh storytime! Okay, so we were in English class, and the teacher gave out worksheets, and then he went over them in the class. Well, I helped Merle with hers, considering that I am fluent in the language. So she raises her hand to answer one of the questions, and reads the answer. The teacher approves, except for the usage of the word "got." He glances in my direction before saying, "That's American English."
"Bah!" I thought to myself. But if British English is what they want...
The first day we went to the school, we had much fun on the play set. Heehee.
Isn't he amazingly wonderful?!?! Have you met anyone so handsome? I think not!
This is just so pretty. It was in the garden of the "New Palace" in Potsdam.
California feet.
Have you seen anything more random? I mean, who in their right mind would use lime green gnomes to showcase their merchandise? Maybe it's because they live in Holland.
Oh, and if you read my blog at all, you may have read the May 2nd post... so quick update, I got a 5!! That's the highest score!! WOO!!

Cliche of the Day: Oh how time flies!
Today is the second-to-last day of school. What a lovely thought. It gives my heart butterflies! Who needs anything else when such a happy statement can be said with complete truthfulness?
Of course, my butterflies turn from ohmygoodnessiaminlove butterflies to ohnoicannotbelieveitiamnervous butterflies when I remember that my dearest Ate and my little love bunch Nemesia must leave on Wednesday. That, also, is a mere day away. How could this have snuck up on me? They've been here for about a month, and it felt like it would never end. Then *bamwagglekazooey!!* the day has almost arrived.
Oh the sadness and happiness all mixed together in one motley ball of emotion! I think I'll go write some awful poetry about the awfulness of this awful predicament. Woe is me.
On a lighter note, I'm wearing green today!

Family resemblences.
Guess who is visiting us?
*waits as you wonder and try to figure out who it is I'm talking about*
Nemesia and Ate are! Yay!
*dances happily*
^__^
By the way. Look at Nemmie, then look at Noor. Tongues out... smiling... fair... close proximity to a wonderful mother/lola... Is it just me, or are there quite a few similarities?

Happy Mother's Day!
Aw, look at us. We had tea on Mommys' Day. It was very yummilicious! Afterwards we all went to a nursery to look at plants.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank my dearest Mumsie for being so good at her job. :) Much love!

My lovely little sister in... The ATTACK of the Killer Fingers!
Day trippin' to a field of wonders!
Hello there! Today I was fortunate enough to miss 3/4 of my school day. Instead of toiling away at pointless work, we took a couple yellow school buses down to Balboa Park. After watching an Imax movie on coral reefs and playing in the Reuben H. Fleet science museum, we went outside to eat lunch. It was such a beautiful day! We all decided to age backwards a bit, so we played tag and slide. Robin's knuckles hurt my hands...Plus, Megan almost died from eating Skittles that expired last August. Well, she didn't almost die, but she probably risked some discomfort.
I love fieldtrips, even when they're completely random and have nothing to do with what we're learning. ^__^

Everybody loves school.
I made this. Huzzah! It shows how all dreams during one's school years lead to the corporate whale, and only by rising above this parade to destruction (via helium balloons) can one escape the impending annihilation of self.
By the way, that was all a bunch of ridiculousness. I mean seriously, who would actually think that about a bunch of school buses driving towards a whale?

That AP test can just kiss my Smurf!
It covers everything from our dear friend Lucy the Austrolopithecus to everyone's favorite fascists, Adolf and Mussolini.
It expects you to know about obscure people who somehow did something of minor importance.
And to top it all off, It costs mucho dinero.
Why am I even taking the AP World History test?
I don't actually remember all of that random information. It's probably all stuck in the lower right lobe of my brain, and I won't be able to recall any of it until 30 to 40 minutes after the test.
Goodbye cruel world. And thank you to the Advanced Placement People! Students around the world are cramming as much information into their little heads as possible. We wouldn't have done it without you.
Okay. I'm done ranting.

I'm the Dread Pirate Kelstiki. Fear me.
Here I am, Captain Kelstiki, in a mock-up of my ship with First Mate Boo Boo. This is actually the row boat that my crew wittled to look like the real thing. Arg, matey.
A dream is a WISH your heart makes....
....when you're fast asleep... *hums tune*
It kind of looks like the castle is balancing on Robin's head.
Anyway.
Sleeping Beauty's castle never looked so gold! I'm sure they added the embellishments in honor of their 50th anniversery. That's half a century! Disney is old...
Ooo.... the tiki tiki tiki room!!
I went to Disneyland with Robin, her mumsie, her mumsie's friend Mary Anne, and Laina! It was oodles of fun. This picture was taken outside of the Tiki Room. That's a funny attraction...with the burlesque birdies and the fantastically fantastic flowers. I'm proud to say that I sang along.

Happy (belated) Easter!
Laina and I were festive on Easter and wore festive headbands with cute little spring-time animals. Well, Noor was feeling a little jealous, so she decided to be a flower. Aww.
While Noor was parading around with her little headress, Brooke and I practiced walking. She and her twin, Ashley, are so cute. They're already about 9 months old! Every time they visit, they look bigger. *sigh* They grow up so fast... *tear tear* I love my little cousins.

Out of disobedience, fear, and tears, a hero emerges... Noor the Doggie Wonder!
It was a beautiful day. The wild flowers (a.k.a. weeds) swayed in the breeze that spoke of summer. Noor guarded the door to the deck, lying happily in the sun. Unfortunately, she was a little too happy, since a few minutes later, she was fast asleep. That was when disaster struck.
While Noor dozed on the deck, MussoliNiNi Mao Zecat (the kitty, whose real name is Ni. He just wants to take over the world, so he changed his name... long story. See the blog entry from 3/23.) decided to take advantage of the situation, and sauntered out the door, past Noor, and into the wide open wonderfulness that is our yard. Little did he know that without his front claws, and without the guardianship of the ever-loyal Noor, he was vulnerable to the wild beasts that come out at dusk (otherwise known as coyotes).
Meanwhile, Mother was in the kitchen, cleaning, when she happened to notice the door to the deck... wide open.
"(audible gasp) Oh no! Where's that cat?! NI!!! WHERE ARE YOU?" she yelled desperately throughout the house, checking all of his favorite spots. There was no sign of the cute little black kitty who happened to be slightly rebellious.
"Noor, go find Ni!" ordered my mother.
Noor, being the lazy dog she is, sat in the sun a bit before setting off on her quest. But when she began, it was in earnest. Noor searched high and low, low and high for her beloved Ni, but he was nowhere to be found. Then, Noor remembered something of mild importance. Whenever Ni escaped, he always came back home absolutely filthy... which meant that he was probably rolling around in the dirt under the porch! Noor's hunch was correct. There he was, dirtier than ever. Noor let out an exasperated sigh before herding Ni back to the house.
During this afternoon of adventure and excitement, Mother was so worried that she cried as she was about to call Dad about the awful news. Right as she was about to push the "Talk" button, she heard barking, and a couple of meows. Turning around, there on the other side of the glass door were the two pets! She was so happy that she cried even more.
Needless to say, Ni got many kisses and a few chastisements after that episode, while Noor basked in the glory of her heroic deed for the rest of the day. Huzzah for the animals!
And that's the end of this dramatic tale. For lighter reading try the silly story I wrote in my archives. It's quite... well, just read it.

So here I am posting on my blog, when wafts of delicious naturally flavored barbeque chips reach my nose... I can't resist eating them. But oh no! I have eaten the whole bag! What shall I do? My thighs can't cope with such a huge intake of chemicals, sugar, and fat.
I might as well have just eaten a flavored tub of lard. Oy vey.

The Happiest Place on Earth!!
Which also happened to be the wettest. We went to Disneyland today with the GAPP students. Even before we arrived, it was raining. There was not one moment of pure, unclouded sunshine. It was a potential disaster.
But then I realized that no matter what I did or said, nothing except a dryer was going to remove the moisture from my jeans, shirt, sweatshirt, hair, shoes, and socks.
So, I did what any thoroughly wet (yet happy) person would do. I played in the rain! I danced, I skipped, I jumped in a couple of puddles. I even got a few people to look at me funny while I squiggled my feet on Main Street.
I had lots of fun at Disneyland. Despite the millions of droplets of water that fell upon me.
