Okay, the reason I haven't been on is because of my birthday, spending time with family, and needed alone time. My birthday was on April 15, and I've just been... busy, I guess?

Um, let's see, my birthday was spent hanging out with my brother and spending some time with my family. It was a Friday, so I had school. Friends gave me gifts (that I love and cherish) and... uh.... OH, YEAH! I have a mini story from April 15:

It was Connections (a 15 minute time in homeroom before classes begin), and a friend called me over to speak with them. I slipped into the seat next to her and asked what was going on. I won't say what, because that's personal stuff, ya know?

(My mama just told meh brother to put his pants on. Irrelevant, Felina. Anyway...)

Suddenly, my favorite teacher walked by us (he happens to be my homeroom teacher :3). As he walked by, he leaned down and whispered to me,"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you." And I just gave him a surprised look, asking,"How did you know??" He just winked and said something (can't remember what - sorry :P)

That made my day. Just the fact that he knew it was my birthday made me so... happy! :D

Teacher goals, people.

I can't help but wonder why he bothered to know when my birthday was. Maybe he walked into my LA teacher's classroom and saw my name written on the whiteboard in the birthday area (basically, whenever it's someone's birthday, she writes it down on a whiteboard so that everyone can see). Or maybe he looked up when my birthday was. That would literally make me the happiest mini woman on Earth.

Just sayin'.

On April 16 (Saturday), I went to Polish school for 4 hours. I also cried a little bit before Polish school because I got stressed out. For no reason, apparently.

Whoops. X3

April 17 (Sunday). We went to church. A few hours after church, I was supposed to go to a bridal shower with my mama, but she decided to let me stay home (thank the Mighty Cookie!). She said that I'd be whining to go home the second we got to the party, but it's not my fault that I 1.) don't like parties in general and 2.) no one that I knew (kid wise) would be there besides a little kid (and I'm not the biggest fan of little kids).

So... yeah.

April 18 (Monday/today). Today was surprisingly amazing. The sixth grade started PARCC tests today, but after that, we went for a fitness walk. We had to walk around the school three times. It was pretty hot out (80+ degrees) and some kids went back into the school after the first or second walk around the school.

On the third walk around the school, I got an idea. I had a mission. That mission was to reach my favorite teacher (let's call him Mr. Lynn [not his real name]), who was toward the front of the walk, while I was aaaaall the way at the back. It was going to take a while. I was already hot and sweating and tired, but I had to do it. I just had to.

When I finally reached Mr. Lynn, I tiredly threw my arms into the air, weakly saying,"Yeeeeessssss.... I did it!" I walked next to him, a foot in between us. I breathed in and out heavily, out of breath. "I accomplished my mission!" I breathed out.

That caught Mr. Lynn's attention. "And what would that be?" he asked. "To reach you," I replied, glancing at him to see his reaction. He had a nonchalant face and didn't say anything. I must have caught him off guard. He definitely didn't expect me to do that (walk a really long distance to him).

"I started all the way at the back, and I had to walk all the way to the front, which was hard," I explained, moving my arms this way and that. I don't remember what was said after that, so let's skip to the next thing I remember saying to him (which was still during the walk).

My breathing was still heavy. I gave a small sigh. "I'm too old for this...," I said. Mr. Lynn laughed and said,"That's funny." There was a smile on his face. I couldn't help but smile myself. "Seriously, all I do is lie around all day!" I added.

~Time skip~

I lied down on the sidewalk-like pavement in front of the doors of the school. We were waiting for the other students and teachers to finish walking.

Yes, I was literally lying on the ground, still out of breath from my mission. I just lied there like a turtle. Except.... turtles don't breathe heavily... Frag.....

A wasp flew over me, and I shot off the ground like a rocket. "NOPE, NOPE, NOPE, NOPE!!!"

~Yet another time skip~

I sat on the grass.

My breathing was under control now, and I felt restless. I felt like I could run around the school, rather than walk.

Yep, I'm crazy. Literally everyone else was hot and tired and wanted to go back inside.

Except for me, of course. XD

~~~~~

Oh, yeah, I'm 12 now. :3

You must be wondering: What makes Mr. Lynn so special that you'd fast walk and occasionally run all the way to him while you're hot and tired?? Ehhhhhh?!

'Cause I'm crazy.

No, but seriously, I have reasons as to why he's such a special and important person in my life. I won't tell you those reasons now, but soon. Soon...

And no, I don't have a crush on him. -,-

Anyway, soon....... (adding drama here!)
