Watermelon

This was the derpiest Costco visit EVER!


Okay so for like 2 hours (I'm exaggerating) We were killing time in Costco. We were playing bumper cars with office chairs, playing with giant fans, and derping around with phones, cameras, tablets, and computers. Also when we walked into Costco we were pretty hungry. But we filled ourselves up by eating a bunch of those samples.

Okay so getting to the point, We were leaving and we saw the big line for returns. And this guy has nothing but a watermelon. Dad was like, "Is it a defective WATERMELON!????!!!! Did he open it up and it was cantaloupe?!!???" I was very confused on why he would try to return a watermelon. But hey, maybe it was a defective watermelon.

California vacation

It was Aweshum! We were filled with activities! By visiting a lot of my dads old houses, going to visit these historical towers, they were really cool looking. And going to, Venice, the pier, watching action movies.
Papa Russ could not get the word, "Flarb" He kept calling it a Flerbic. Only my Aunt Dyon could understand the meanings of Flarb. He also didn't know what a Bunchie was. So I showed him it was this.



Most of the time I was just playing with their dog, Maggie. Because I was bored a lot.


Well, Buh-bye

OBT Summer Intensive

During this OBT summer course we have to learn 3 different dances. And 2 of them will actually be in the showcase. (I think only one but idk) During the one that I know for sure! It's called Repertoire. I call it Rep. It's a piece from Giselle. I really like it. I am one of the many Wine Gatherers. The dance is really fast and SUPER DUPER fun.

The other dance that we have to learn is our Variations dance. Our teacher didn't say what ballet it's from, she just said that it's a cute little piece from the Russian ballet. (we're not doing this one on stage) At first I thought that I would hate it all 6 weeks. Because I didn't get it right away and I didn't really understand most of the steps. But as we went on, I got it perfectly. And I can't wait till out next Variations class.

Our LAST dance is in our Hip Hop routine. We dance to a song called, "Where have you been" By Rhianna. It was either that or some weird derpy song.
What makes this dance REALLY, REALLY, REALLY...... Fun. Is that we get to do Double Dream Hands! It's some weird dance that the Skittles learned on Youtube. It's a weird punch,punch across, shoulder, chin, shoulder shoulder shoulder, pat, pat, DOUBLE DREAM HANDS! (Just look it up....)
The dance is really fun, challenging, and AWESHUM!

Well I'll be posting later.... I'm doing that 11 day sleepover still! Gotta go!

Buh-bye!

Cholking on a pea

At OBT summer intensive all of the Skittles are going together. We usually stick together as our own little group.
We have 30 to 45 minutes of a lunch break between classes. One of those days we were all eating our lunches when I told them a funny joke. We all laughed very hard. Then one of the Skittles started cholking. "Are you cholking on your own spit?" I said. Then she said, "No, I'm cholking on pea!" We all bursted out laughing! She said "No!!! Not that kind of pea!" She pointed at her box of peas.

That one I will never let her forget. Or the other Skittles. Can't wait till we go back to PNB!!!!

11 day sleepover

The friend that I'm having the 11 day sleepover is with Rachel. Her mom goes on a lot of business trips. So she has to plan really early just so she knows what she can do.

Her mom is going on a business trip, and her mom asked my mom if she could stay with us for 11 days! And she said, yes! But theres 2 bad parts... 1. It's in JULY....2. I have ballet 5 days a week! From like 10:30 in the morning to 2:00 in the afternoon! That's 3 and a half hours of dance everyday! And I still have to do summer school because we started late in the year. And I was done with my last books at the beginning of May.
But Ethan and I have already started planning what we're going to do. Ethan wanted to play videogames for like a week straight. But also it's in the middle of summer so we have to go outside in the sprinkler, on the trampoline.... And stuffs.

Well, I gotta go.

 Bye!

Coppelia

I haven't posted in like a month. So I'm just gonna talk about Coppelia and whats been going on and stuffs. Yesterday was our first on stage rehearsal. And the entire 3rd act set was up. there were columns, bells, flowers that looked like grapes, and really sparkly pillows that the villagers sit on.
What really bugged my was that on the sides there are usually giant curtains or something that covers most of the wing. But now those curtain thingies are like see through because it's mostly flowers on it. We would usually run out on count 3. But because of the see through thingies we have to start so far back that we have to run on the count 1.

Dress rehearsal is today! So that means we get to wear out TUTU'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are SOOOOOOO pretty! They are pink with little gold lacy thingies. And we have little arm tutu's that look like the same thing. And we wear AWESOME tiaras. They are gold and they have small pink flowers with little crystals falling from it. But the only bad thing about it is that we don't wear anything underneath out tutu's. And we had our fitting with a leotard on! I think that they're all going to be a little big.
I'm really sad about the casting decision. There are 48 girls in my part. 24 in each cast. The Skittles were hoping and praying that we were all in the same cast. Or at least 2 and 2. But instead it was 1 and 3. I was so sad. Grace is in cast A. And Ella, Kiana, and I are in cast B. Grace and I usually carpool as well. But not for this show. So I might carpool with another girl in my cast, Rowan.


Well, I have to get ready to go to rehearsal. So I'll post in another month or so!

Today....

Well, I haven't posted in a while.... So I'm just gonna post about today!

I woke up at 9:00. I got up and played with the doggies. Fernando smelled really bad. I got Mini Wheats! I love that cereal. I did my school. Then I played on the computer. I did my chores after that. I don't love sweeping. I went back to my game. I posted about today! I played outside. I came inside because it was cold. I ate lunch at 1:00. I was practicing our lil' dance. I went in my room after that. I danced to one of my favorite songs, Party Rock Anthem. I came out and watched TV. At 2:00 I had a protein bar for class later. At 2:30 I got ready for class. By 3:00 I was done. I was waiting for my friend, Grace to arrive. She arrives, and we head out for the bus. We take a bus to the Transit Center, then we go on the 511 bus that takes us to Downtown Seattle. Grace and I sit in the back. This Chinese guy overheard us talking about a snack that I brought. (Goldfish) He asked us for our names and ages. He said he's been working at this one place for like 17 years. And he gave us his Company Pen. It's PURPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But it doesn't write in purple.
We waited a while because of traffic. We were having a very interesting conversation with him but sadly.... We couldn't understand him that well because of his accent. Once we got close to our stop this lady sits down next to us. She starts talking to us as well. She asked us if we were going to Gymnastics or Ballet. So we answered. Ballet. And then she starts talking to us about her kids and how they wanted to be in Gymnastics. Then the Asian guy starts talking and she interrupts him like, "Don't get all up in their grill, man! These kids are just kids, man!" Then she starts talking to us again, "Now you guys, don't talk to strangers. People can be really mean to kids. So don't talk to anybody you don't know." It's like, WAT DA POO!!??!? You're a stranger and you're talking to me!! WAT DA POO!?!?!? I don't think that they realized that we had my mom with us. Oh well....

Well....  That was today. But that guy was really nice so I hope that he's there next time!

Bye!

Gracie!!!!!!!!!!!!

So in (yet another) earlier post. I talked about my friend, Gracie. (or Grace) Fernando absolutely LOVES Grace. And this is what he does when Gracie leaves the house.


I took this picture of him with my new camera while he was yawning. Pretty cool. Dis is wut meh doggie does, when gracie leaves him.

Skittles!

Okay, so in an earlier post I talked about skittles. And I don't mean the candy. I mean, me and my friends.

The Story of the Skittles:

My friends Grace, Ella, Kiana and I, were all auditioning for PNB's summer program. We all wore different colored leotards to the audition. Mine was pink. (Of course) Grace's was purple, Ella's was a light blue, and Kiana's was black.
When we came out of the audition we all had some time before class to eat lunch. As we were eating, Ella's mom came in and told us that we all looked like Skittles! So from there, we were called Skittles!
I'm the red skittle. Ella is the green skittle. And Grace and Kiana are both the purple skittle.
We never talked about which color skittle we all were, I just made it up right now.

So that is the story of DA SKITTLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meh Birfday! (2.0)

Today is my birthday!  But yesterday was my party. My friends Atira and Rachel came. We played lots of fun games and ate the most delicious cake in the world! It was a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting with Reeses Pieces all around the side like a wall. And we put Reeses Mini's on top in a big circle. Then we sprinkled more Reeses Pieces on top. It was a chocolatey MESS! But it was nummy!

For presents, (I'm just gonna say them in the order that I got them) From my friend Rachel, all she gave me was a card that had 20 bucks in it! It was aweshum. From my other friend Atira, She gave me a card (of course) And a t-shirt that had three little ballerinas on it, with other pieces of colorful fabric that looked like tutu's. And then.... NUTELLA!!!!! I love Nutella! But Sierra hates it for some weird reason. Okay, moving on. From my parents, a bracelet made out of Swarovski crystals. It was pink sparkely and pretty! And then I got a camera! It was a pink Canon. It's aweshum! It has lots of different settings, modes, and sounds. But the best thing is, is that it's better than Ethan's and mine was 70 dollars cheaper!!! :D!

So that was my birfday! my Grandma will be coming later today to give me my present!

Buh-bye!

I'm in Coppelia!

Okie dokie! (For those of you who don't know) Coppelia is a ballet about a doll, that tries to make a guy jealous. The guy falls in love with a doll but he doesn't know that she's a doll. But this dude has a girlfriend. And that makes her mad. So she dresses up like a doll. And stuffs. And that's pretty much the story.
But anyways, my two friends Ella and Kiana told me and my other friend Grace, that they got in to Coppelia. I really wanted to check the mail but Sierra said that there was nothing for PNB. So the next day we all went shopping with my Grandma. And while we were at Fred Meyer my mom got a text saying, "Grace got into Coppelia. We'll be praying that the fourth Skittle gets in too!" (BTW the skittles is our little club name)
So I was bugging my mom over and over, "Can we go now?!?!?!?" And eventually we left. It was like 1:45 ish. And the mail usually comes at 3 ish. But we stopped and checked the mail anyway. And........ THE MAIL WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My mom got in the car again and I asked, "Is there anything from PNB?!" She was looking through it and she saw a letter that said, "To the parents of Abigail Opper" I grabbed it really fast and opened it. I read the first 2 lines.... And I screamed.
I get a pretty pink and gold little TUTU!!!!! EEEEP! I'm super duper super duper excited!

We have 4 weeks to learn 4 little dances. I'm super nervous. But I'm just glad I don't have a prop.

So.... Yea! Buh-bye!

Confrences!

Holy poo! My confrence is TODAY! If I don't move up I'm gonna be really sad. But if I get a maybe, that's a good thing. Because that will just make me want to work harder for a yes. And if I get a YEAH! Then I will be really excited and I might scream in my teachers ear.....
One reason why I really want to move up to level 5 is because the leotard is PURPLE! I like purple it's probably my favorite color out of the leotard level thingy majig. And another reason why I want to move up is because we actually DO stuff on pointe. Right now we're doing the same old stuff every single time in level 4. It gets kind of annoying.
If I have to stay back for whatever reason, then that's a good thing! Because I can master whatever it is that I have been struggling with. Even though I REALLY don't want to, a lot of girls in my class most likely are going to get held back. Just because level 4 is a lot different than level 5.



So, YUP! Now you know what I'm doing today! Hope you enjoyed! (Actually I really don't care if you enjoyed or not) But okie dokie!
BUH-BYE!!!!!!

Camera
Clothes (who doesn't need more clothes!?)

My sister.... The PANTS sniffer

Don't mind the title.... It's creepy...

Okay, so I was just in my room when my sister was putting on her shoes sitting on the ground. She stopped and bent over to her knees. I gave her this weird look and she said, "WHOA! MY PANTS SMELL GOOD!" I gave her that creepy look again. And all of a sudden she says, "NO, SERIOUSLY! SMELL THEM!"


Creepiest moment of my life.......

Lindsi Dec's Pointe Shoe!

On the very last day of Nutcracker, I got a pointe shoe for Lindsi Dec! She's my favorite dancer in the company, and she was the only dancer that I wrote to. So getting her pointe shoe was awesome!
She even wrote a little note on it! You can't really see it in the picture but... It's there!
I was so excited! It was one of my favorite Christmas presents!

Christmas!

This year, instead of Hanukkah, (Probably spelled that wrong) We're doing Christmas! We got a Charlie Brown tree from our Grandma. It's so cute and wittle! LOL

We got yo open 1 present on Christmas Eve. I got a dance bag that I really wanted. And a cup that says, "I love dance" And pencils that say "I love dance."
Ethan got bedding. (Maybe Minecraft t-shirts. I don't know if that was today or yesterday. LOL) And Sierra got a hoodie that says, "CHEM" For, My Chemical Romance. Some weird band that she likes.
And on Christmas Day, I got 2 pink shirts, a Nutcracker, candy, shower gel, pink very fluffy ear muffs and gloves, PNB pants, and fluffy polka dot socks.
Ethan got everything in his stocking wrapped. Just because he thought it was cruel that mom was making us wait to open our presents even though they were already under the tree. LOL. And he also got a Grateful Dead blanket. (But that was Christmas Eve. I'm too lazy to go back and type it. XD) And Sierra got a My Chemical Romance DVD. Pretty much all the same stuff that I got. Just without the Nutcracker, pink shirts, ear muffs, gloves, PNB pants. She did get fluffy socks but they had stripes on them! XD

New contest!

Okay, since my new contest was won. By: Atira. I now have another contest! And you pick your own prize! (As long as it's possible) But all you have to do is answer this little question:  What's the creepiest thing that I own?

I'll give you 3 hints:

1. It's kind of like a stuffed animal
2.It's in a game (Any type of console probably has it)
3. It has a pink outfit


Ethan sadly yet again you cannot guess or cheat. Because I told you the answer! HEHEHEHE!

(This is a title)

As you all know, my brother and I love the game, Minecraft. And I am randomly posting this because I wanted to tell you something that we both do.... Ethan makes a server so that only us and his lil friends can play. We make a little house or city and live with our grandparents. (This part that I just told you doesn't really matter) And we aren't allowed to leave the city. So at night we always sneak away and try to find a cave. (This is the part that matters) If it's a big cave, we'll keep it as your own little clubhouse type thingy. If it's just a hole, we really don't care about it. In the big caves, we go exploring. To see just how big it really is. Then we go back to the top and start flattening everything out. The best caves that we find, are ones with ravines. (A giant hole long thingy. Sorry, I can't really explain.) Inside of the ravines, you can find diamonds. Which we are always looking for. If the ravine has nothing that we want; then we get a BUNCH of TNT, place it EVERYWHERE, hit it, and RUN! If we watch it explode then we might crash the server even more. Once it stops we run back to see the damage. We usually make a big "lavafall". But hardly ever do we find diamonds. So we do the same thing but go down. You can only find diamonds on level 10 now. It used to be 16. But Notch hates everybody.
Once we were exploding stuff everywhere. And we went so far down, and so far out, that we found an abandoned mineshaft. And it was BIG. We got lost SO many times. 

And in the end, we found over 30 diamonds! The server crashed like a billion times. And our entire cave just looked like the worlds biggest hole.

So there you go! That's usually what I do in my free time.... XD

Funny Dog Pics

So when Ethan sent me a really funny dog photo, I just had to have more. (Not really) So I found..... These.
                                                         Well, he looks scared.....
                                                         Who can resist those eyes?!
                                                       Whatever that was... It was funny.
                                                  It's times like this when you need a brain!
                                                     That must have been really pretty.......
                                                        He's trying so hard! Just explode!
                                                     That cat looks soooo scared... (NOT)
                                                                      Isn't that a face

It's coming up!

Nutcracker's opening night is on Friday! AHHH! I get really nervous before a show, and this happens every single time. And I have 20 shows! AHHH! (<----- Again) And a lot of family and friends are coming to different shows. So I'm pretty happy about that! Like my cousins that I haven't seen in FOREVER are coming! But I think that just my aunt is coming to actually see it. (LOL)
