Lunch Vibez

Today yesterday I had a band concert at school. We played at the Lincoln Park Zoo. It was kinda windy out and our parts were flying everywhere. We were actually prepared for that (we usually play there every year, so, knowing that it’s windy most of the time, we come with clothes pins to pin down our sheets) but today it was particularly gusty and my part, along with two other kids’ flew away in the middle of a song.. We had to improvize, which, uh, worked out kinda well.

And, oh yeah. Afterwards, me, Henry, Hayden, and a few other friends were eating lunch, when A FREAKING SEAGULL LANDS ON OUR TABLE, SNATCHES MY PIZZA AND FLIES AWAY. After it had stolen my overpriced zoo-food-court pizza it landed like twenty feet from our table so I went up to it, got the piece of pizza, took it back to the food court for proof that my food/~lunch vibez~/me were just TRAUMATIZED BY A VICIOUS SEAGULL and that I would please like a refund. They were out of pizza. I got a hot dog. Meanwhile, I said to my friends, *mock-teenage princess voice* “Ohh emm, geeee, I am like, sooo gonna blog about this.”

After school Sammy, mom, and I went to see Night At The Museum, “Battle of the Smithsonian.” 1. It made me really really want to go to the Smithsonian. I find museums interesting. Except for when they’re like, not-interesting. I really like the Museum of Science & Industry here in Chicago but I’ve been there so much, it’s a little bit old now. 2. If you’re a movie critic-freak that pays attention to every single detail of the story line and everything, this movie isn’t for you. There were a couple little plot holes, but, hey, it’s just one of those entertaining feel-good flicks, y’know? 3. It has an awesome cast. Ben Stiller, Jonah Hill, Bill Hader, yeah. 4. That one guy, the one from the British “The Office,” Ricky Gervais is in it.. Every time I’ve seen him in anything, he’s always playing a downer (like in Ghost Town, which is a pretty good movie. It has a song by my dad in it, but that’s not why I like it :D)! I wonder if that’s actually his personality. TANGENT ALERT: Every time I watch the British (the original) Office I have to use subtitles because I can’t understand a word they’re saying. I’ve only seen it once, by the way. 5. I think the first one might’ve been a little bit better.. This one was just a little too far fetched, and a little bit less exciting. Yeah, I think the first one was better.

*SPOILER ALERT* So basically the plot is Larry (Ben Stiller), the night guard, is running his own business and is now like a highly paid CEO but he misses being at the museum with all his homies so he goes back there, only to find that they’re all being moved to the Smithsonian to be stored in the Federal Archives, which then sends them all on an adventure to D.C. where they almost get killed by bloodthirsty Egyptians and Al Capone and other bad dudes but then Ben Stiller, I mean, Larry is all like “wattcchaaaa” /cool flashlight movez/ and beasts the evil wannabe-world-conquerers and saves everybody. Oh yeah, he also has an affair with Amelia Earhart.

Whew, lots of movie reviews lately (if you call two lots then, yeah). I’m not even a movie buff! Movie buff.. that’s a term, right? By the way, you know what movie looks high-larious? Year One. I love Jack Black, as well as Michael Cera. Do I say “by the way” too much?

Today was, in fact, the end of my seventh grade academic year. School isn’t over yet, but school school is. All we have left is the end-of-year 7th grade camping trip! And, uh, graduation (this Friday), but that’s for the eighth graders. Tonight we wrapped up our final project with the Independent Study presentation night.. I’m so glad it’s over! And sad, but I’ll try to stay in touch with all my friends and stuff this summer.

Oh sweet summah time, we’ll be there soon!
