2011 memories :)

Ok, I said I would list good and bad memories of 2011 so here you go. I'll do the bad first so I can cheer you up with the good:)

BAD
-There was an earthquake in August. It was a warm, sunny afternoon.My cousins were over and we were playing wii. My older cousin was jumping around and when you jump, the TV stand in my family room shakes. It started shaking and I turned around to tell my cousin to stop jumping and he wasn't jumping. Everything started to shake so we ran to my dad and went outside. Someone yelled "earthquake!" So my cousins went home, we turned on the news, and there had been an earthquake in Virginia and we could feel it. Scary.
-Shortly after the earthquake, there was a HURRICANE! Oh my gosh, I was freaking out. We got everything ready, shut down all the TVs and computers, got our flashlights, and turned the news on. It wasn't raining that hard, but we were scared. Well, I was scared. We were watching the news on our 'safe' TV. (There was a storm protection thing on it) And suddenly, there were TORNADO warnings. Where I live, there are not earthquakes, hurricanes, and slash or tornadoes. Eventually nothing happened so we just watched Modern Family and went to bed around 3.
-On the last day of 5th grade, my best friend moved far, far away. Almost the other side of the country. It was so sad and I miss her so much. That day was good and bad. It was also the last day of school so I wouldn't be able to see some friends everyday anymore. It was also the last day at that school, because now we're at a middle school type one. So we were all going to miss the teachers we've had since 1st grade. But we started driving to Disney that night so that was really good.

GOOD
THERE ARE A LOT MORE GOOD THAN BAD
-Yes, on the last day of school, we drove to Disney! We made it there the next morning and we did have a very magical time. After Disney, the vacation wasn't over yet! We drove a little south to Hutchinson Island and met up with a ton of family! It was so much fun! I'll add pictures in another post.
-I started 6th grade which is so cool! it's like middle school and I got 2 lockers! (yah, I really need a shelf) We have dances, club, activities, it's awesome!
-On my 12th birthday, I was invited to go to Disney again with my best friend (more like sister) Zoe! We had an AMAZING time! Disney is so much fun when you go with your best friend.
-The day after Christmas, we went to Hershey! It's tradition with my dad's side of the family. It's so much fun!There's a picture I took of the cow at the beginning of the chocolate ride. We didn't go to the park because it was only open at night, but we did go to Chocolate World!
-Before school started, I went to Hershey again and went to the park this time. I'd have to say my favorite ride was the Reesee's Cup Challenge! Peanut butter all the way!
-During the summer, I got to spend a lot of time with another one of my epikal friends. We went to the pool a lot and had awesome sunglasses! ;p

Ok, id I named any other good things, I'd never finish this post. Happy new year again! And you can find epic videos on my new YouTube channel : TheMustachedNinja
