Miss Complainer Corinne and my stubborn, angry reply to her outbursts..

In the past couple of weeks, we have achieved some of our goals

1. We have been asked directions, TWICE, which means we look like we know where we're going.
2. Someone commented how perfect mom's teeth were while we were walking down the street.
3. A teacher at dance told Corinne she sounded British.

AWESOME.

And then today dad saw Helena Bonham Carter, YES, this lady,

 at a restaurant (a work dinner we unfortunately weren't invited to) except when he told us about it, he said he saw Helen Bonaparte. She doesn't exist.

And today we went and saw Jane Eyre at a movie theatre. It came out a week ago here. Which is very odd because in Texas it came out in March. And after the movie, we were all the mood to watch pride and prejudice. So when we got home, that is exactly what we did.

And then on Monday Corinne and I made a deal with my dad. We are, AGAIN, going off of sugar and treats. We have to work out five out of the seven days of the week and we have two sweet days every week... so not too bad. But then dad said it ended whenever he wanted it to. So I'm not sure how it will work out this time.

I must admit that this past week I have had pizza twice. And watched a movie almost every day of the week, including Pirates of the Caribbean 1, 2, and 3, Pride and Prejudice, Jane Eyre (both in one day... which i have already mentioned.) Penelope, and Stardust. There may have been a few more here and there. The entire time I have been doing school, shopping, and dancing. My days literally go like this: Wake up, school, shop for school stuff, dance, skype with friends, waste time watching movies and other stuff, bed, repeat.  Meanwhile, I have not been helping mom with the wash, dishes, cleaning, helping her figure out how a computer works, figuring out how the tv works, nor figuring out how her phone and ipad work. She has a hard time with technology... But I do think I will lose weight from walking everywhere. I still think walking everywhere should count as exercise. But I doubt it. We have also found a library (one that is worse than the Southlake Public Library if you can believe it) checked out like seven books, and by the time this year is over I will probably have read all of the books in the teen section, minus the vampire books and soppy, stupid, large, disgusting, love stories.

One more thing. Corinne is giving me a hard time about exaggerating on my blog. For those reading- SORRY. I guess you will just have to enjoy the small half-truths I've been writing. They are more like small extensions anyways. Plus, they make everything so much more interesting.
