Happy Summer!/Summer Update #1

Sorry this is late, but I just wanted to wish you all a happy summer! I, like many of you, got out on the 14th. In those five days (wow, only five???) a lot has happened. I...

But I've had a lot of fun, and will update you more on my summer later.

So, how's your summer going? Are you happy to be done with school? What are your plans? Type your response in that little box down there and comment!

Just the Little Things

For those of you who don't know, I had a small part in a play at my school. There was this guy, an 8th grader (older than me), and I only ever spoke to him once when we were moving a set piece together.
Anyway, so the other day, I was having a really bad day. I was fighting with one of my friends, this girl was being mean to me...you get the idea.
So, I'm walking through the 8th grade hall, and I'm trying to stay low, because the 8th graders never acknowledge someone in the younger grades unless it's to try to creep them out or maybe even pick on them. And then he walked by me.
And this is what he did.
He tapped me on the shoulder, called my name, smiled, and said hi.
It might not seem like much, but it was actually really sweet of him to do that. the fact that he remembered my name and was nice enough just to say hi as he passed me made me feel really great.
From this point on, I will always remember that day, and how good it made me feel.
So, that's my rambling for today! Hope you enjoyed it!
<3,
Hermione

Funny Les Miz Gifs!

I didn't know you could make Les Miz funny. I know now.

HE PINKY SWORE!!!

Yes, how do you smuggle a cow into a barricade in the midst of the French Revolution...?

Don't worry, Enjolras...

***NOTE: THESE PICTURES ARE NOT MINE. I DID NOT MAKE THEM, OR TAKE PART IN MAKING THEM.

Happy Memorial Day

It's that time of barbecues and swimming, and let's not forget that bonus day off of school! Yes, Memorial Day is here again, and we get to relax and kick back with a book and a slice of watermelon.

But why don't we stop and think for a moment about why we have such a sweet deal.

Soldiers fought and fought for our country, so we could live our lives in comfort. Even today, there are soldiers serving our country, serving us. So take a break from the fun--just for a second--and think about not what you're doing, but why you're doing it.

So to all those soldiers who fought--and those who are still fighting--I raise my hand in a salute, and encourage all to do the same. I have nothing more to say but "Thank you".

Have a safe and relaxing Memorial Day weekend.

I Think I May Lose Several Followers For This...

I've been debating whether or not to post this for quite some time now. But I can't hide any longer.

I've been keeping secrets from you.

This has been going on for too long now. I need to open up. Deep breaths, deep breaths. Before continuing any further, I warn you, dear reader to brace yourself. The content you are about to read is disturbing, and is not for the faint of heart. Okay, here it goes.

I,

Hermione,

Do

Not

Like

Pie.

Yes, it's true. While all my friends (and perhaps some of you bloggers) go gaga for treat, I turn away, with  tad bit of disgust. Please do not think badly of me. I can tolerate a sliver, but not much more. It's not the crust, nor is it the topping, it's the middle. Now, if the middle were to be 7 Hershey's chocolate bars, well! But I am most certainly not a fan of that lemon, or key lime filling.

I'm sorry.

I had to come out.

Feel free to scorn me.

Staying pie-free,

Hermione

All I Want...

It occurred to me late last Thursday that all I want--all I really, truly want--is for someone to send me an "Edible Arrangement."

I mean all I really want is for someone to send me one of these just amazing, mouth-watering, fruit arrangements that are equally as fun to stare at as to eat.

Selfish? Yes. I'm sorry. I want world peace, and happiness, and all that stuff--but look at it. Look at it.
