The Sick Curse

Bonjour. Quoi de neuf? I’m taking French class at school, and learned that today.. If you don’t know what it means, it translates to “Hello. What’s up?” But anyways, now onto “The Sick Curse.” I’ll tell you what about it, but as if it’s a story. This is a true story, and because of it, I started becoming sick as of yesterday morning, exactly when I woke up at 6 am for school. Exactly. Note: Let this story be a lesson to you.. Trust me.

   Once upon a time, there was a girl named Tori. She woke up one morning, and noticed that her throat was sore. She ignored it and thought it’ll get better on it’s own like normally. Was she a fool? Yes. Tori was a fool. When she talked that day, her voice was raspy.

   Soon school passed away quick, and then time to go back to sleep. The next day, she woke up at 6 am again, and her sore throat was still there. When she got on the bus to go to school, she started talking to her friend. Right away, when Tori said the first word, she noticed that she’s starting to lose her voice. As the day at school went on, her voice started going away more and more until the point of when she tried to talk, it was just a squeak and she couldn’t say a word.

  But then, it came back. She talked while she could, and she blabbed about things.. Then her voice went “POOF!” Gone, again. She didn’t talk for a whole class period about for fourty-five minutes. When class was over, she could talk almost talk normally again. The whole day it was the same pattern – Tori lost her voice, then it came back, she lost it again, and it came back, over and over.

  Eventually, she went home. Her voice was still raspy, but it wasn’t near to normal.. Her mom laughed at her, thinking that she’ll have peace and quiet (Isn’t my mom nice? xD) because one of her kids wouldn’t be able to talk. She told Tori to keep on talking to lose her voice. Then, later on she was on her laptop, on TheACP chat, and then she remembered last week when her dad told her something when she told him something. She flashback to last weekend at the cabin, sitting at the table eating breakfast.

  They were talking on how her dad was sick the day before, and I just said “Well, I haven’t been sick since about a year or more.” Then her dad warned Tori about, what she liked to call, “The Sick Curse.” He told Tori, “I heard when you say you haven’t been sick since a while, you all of sudden get sick a few days later. It’s just something people say, but I don’t know if it’s true.” Tori just rolled her eyes, smiled, and said “Yeah, right, dad. It’s probably something not true. Like when you open an umbrella in a house, you’ll have bad luck.” She sat and ate her food, then she had an idea. Tori bursted out saying, “I DON’T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL! I HAVEN’T BEEN SICK SINCE A YEAR OR MORE!” Her dad just laughed and left the table to put his dishes away.

Then she thought, that’s what this might be.. “The Sick Curse” has striked Tori. Big time.

THE END.

When I had that flashback, it was actually about an hour or two ago.. Now, I’m laying in bed again, coughing, being as quiet as I can, and dealing with a sore throat. Oh, fun. Please don’t make the mistake, I did. Now I’m starting to wonder if “The Sick Curse,” is truly, well, true. Unless I got sick from being around too much people at school, after being away for 3 months over the summer. I don’t know, though. So many questions, yet so many unanswered.. 

Besides that, I’m sorry I rarely post now.. I’m not going to make any promises, but I’m going to try my best to post whenever I can. Well, toodles!

Title was eaten by a unicorn, wearing a tutu while eating a lollipop.

Did the title get your attention? I thought so.. Anyways, the summer is ending soon for me, which is sad. I’m sore and tired right now because on Saturday, I was jet-skiing for four hours, and on Sunday, I was jet-skiing,  AGAIN, for four hours. So, I’m sore from that.. You might be wondering, “How do you get sore from jet-skiing? All you do is sit and drive.” Well, my friend, when you’re jet-skiing you move your body with the jet ski. You also have to hang on to it, so you won’t fall off when your going crazy, which what I was doing, and that’ll pretty much tire your muscles out. Now I’m in my bed, with my laptop, trying to heal.

Sorry I haven’t been posting, at all. I just get so caught up with fun and yeah.. You probably know what I mean. And now for an animation from my favorite TV show of all time, Spongebob Squarepants. ♥

I hope you enjoyed it as well, as I did. Toodles!

Popsicles!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven’t posted since a while.. I’ve been caught up in so much schoolwork. But thank goodness that school’s over for my brother and I on Thursday! Anyways, I’ve been making my own popsicles lately and they’re really good! These are healthy, and delicious. I know that summer is here, and that it seems like a major heatwave is coming through, so.. If you want to try them, here’s what you gotta do.

Juice Popsicles

Ingredients:

- Any 100% fruit juice, or orange juice. If you want, you can do pop too.

- Popsicle sticks

- Popsicle molds (or any mold, whatever you like! )

Instructions:

1. Pour the juice/pop into the molds.
2. Place the mold in the freezer and wait about 15-25 minutes.
3. Put the popsicle sticks into the almost-done popsicles after 15-25 minutes.
4. Leave them in for about 30-40 minutes, and enjoy!

Idea: If you freeze this without the popsicle sticks, you can also use these as ice cubes for your drink! For instance, if you were drinking orange juice, you could put orange ice to keep your drink cold. Also, you wouldn’t have water diluting into your drink, instead it’ll be the same thing that your drinking! How cool is that?!

I’ll probably be posting more now that school will be over soon. Yay! See you around everyone! Have an AWESOME summer!

2 Months

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven’t posted since 2 months or so.. I got really busy with school, chores, and some other personal things. But, last week I made some mini cheesecakes and they were yummy! I’ll post the recipe in the recipes page, probably sometime this week. The cheesecakes turned out fantastic! I got the recipe from, of course, Bakerella. I couldn’t help myself but atleast try it. It was my first recipe I did from Bakerella. If you can find the recipe for mini cheesecakes, you should try it on http://bakerella.com/ ! That’ll be all for this post. Bye everyone!

Recipes Page

Ello Randomers! I was wondering, what recipes would you like to see in the Recipes page coming soon? Make a comment below, and I’ll probably put it in the Recipes page with some others.

Maybe in a week or so, I’m about to attempt to make cake pops! I’m going to use the recipe from Bakerella, who I think is the Queen of Cake Pops. I’m going to try to make some Spongebob Squarepants Cake Pops. In my own words, I think cake pops are like lollipops, but instead, they’re cakes! When I’m done, I’ll post some pictures and maybe post the recipe, too, on the Recipes page.

Remember, comment below a recipe, or something you’d like to see on the Recipes Page! Thanks everyone who can help!
