Halloween
Knock, knock. "Are you awake?" I could hear Glen's voice on the other side of my door. "Shit! 7:42." I rushed in to my costume and took a quick breakfast.
Michela knocked on the front door, and I jumped into the car. I was looking out for costumes and I saw more and more the closer we got to the school.
First class was drama. Mr. Kuhn, my drama teacher was dressed up as a guide, and we all had to wait in front of the classroom. While we we're waiting I took some photos.
I met up with Jonathon. He was dressed up like a pingpong player. He kept saying he felt exposed, because he had his cross-country running shorts on from freshmen year (2 years old). I told him that's what us girls are going throw everyday.
Mr. Kuhn and some drama students had made the class room into a haunted house, and we were going in groups. Jonathon was making jokes about the freshmen, because they were scared, but when we went in he took my sleeve and was screaming like crazy. He was so scared, he pushed me into the wall, and was screaming "Caoimhe, Caoimhe! Where are you?!"
"I am here, you're holding me!"
I had to drag him through. Jonathon sad that he felt bad, because he stepped on someone. There was a costume contest. I was chosen out. There were awards for Funniest, Scariest and Best costume. Jonathon won Funniest custom. Lauryn won Scariest and I won Best. That was the best way to start out the day!
I loved looking around see what costumes people had, they we're so creative. One was dressed up as Taylor Swift in the "You Belong With Me" music video.
Forensic science was awesome. We're doing experiments from chemistry, so we we're just playing around.
In P.E. my friend Alex was showing his tricks to scare people. He is working in a haunted house on Halloween.
History, we were doing a trade game, I started out with two items ended with 13 items (Yes, I know. I get really into that kind of stuff) It was a lot of fun, and I got to know some new people from the class.
When I came home, I had a big headache and I had to lay down. Before I knew, it was 5:36. I looked at my phone and my friend that had promised me to take me to this Halloween church event had to cancel. I was really sad.
Alex wrote to me, to come and play Modern Warfare 3 at his house (We both live in Independence Village) and I went over to his house and played. About 7, Alex went to the haunted house with his girlfriend, she was also going to work there. I promised to come and see it later.
I was sad when I came home, I couldn't believe this was the way I was going to spend my Halloween. Then I got the idea of calling Jonathon. I begged him to go with me, and in the end he said yes. I ran up to take my costume on and then I got a text, where he said he wasn't going to do it. I got so sad, I sent him a lot of crying smileys and end the end he said ok.
I meet him at the elementary school down the street. He was still dressed like a ping pong player. He had the directions for a haunted house, but it took a while to get there on foot. On the way we stopped by a few houses. I didn't really fit in with the kids, but I really didn't care.
We got on to a busy street, and some guys that only wear underwear was "yahoo-ing" at Jonathon.
"Caoimhe, I feel so exposed!" I just started laughing.
We saw a haunted house sign and followed the direction, and on the end of the street there was a big sign wtih "Haunted House" in front of a house. A little kid was screaming "NO, NO" when his big sister was trying to drag him in to the haunted house. She asked if she could go in with me and Jonathon, so we all went in.
As we took one step inside, two chainsaws were turned one. The girl ran away as fast she could, Jonathon tried to run away with her, but I dragged him in (it was so funny) we got in to the new room and a clown jumped out. Jonathon pushed me into the wall and hit me in the face with his pingpong bat. I was confused after being hit by a pingpong bat, but Jonathon was holding my arm and running through the house.
I was laughing all the time. Jonathon was so funny he was screaming all the time. When we came out he said, "Caoimhe, why were you so scared?" The girl came over to us and said she would like to try again, I had both Jonathon and the girl holding my arms. The girl was screaming her heart out, I was again pushed in to the wall.
We headed for the "big" scary house. We're standing in line, just talking. A couple of (weirdos) guys were standing in front of us. One of them turn to us and started talking to us, I thought it was very strange, and I really didn't want to talk to him, but Jonathon was really good and talked with him.
It was so scary, we were both shaking, but it was fun. There were mirrors so you felt like you we're getting lost. In the beginning, I didn't get it, so, when me and Jonathon stood in front of it I said "Hey guys, what's up?" ( very weird ). Jonathon was laughing at me. I realized I was talking to a mirror as well. What we didn't know was what was going around the corner...

Hard Week
I had a hard week. On Monday Johnathon was absent, I was really angry with him, because I just agreed to work with him. I texted him, asking why he was absent. He wrote back that he had an family emergency, I got worried and asked him what it was, but he wouldn't tell me, he was absent the hole week.
Later I had track training and I was talking to one of the girls, she had just lost her 22 year old cousin, he was electrocuted, it was an accident. It made me realize how easy it is to lose somebody you love, and made me think of home.
Tuesday, Kitty's brother had an heart attack. I had just met Pat, kitty's brother, a few weeks ago. I was really sad to hear what had happen. I have been really down this week, and friday I was homesick, and tired. There was a big school football game but I decided not to go, I couldn't.
Friday night I got a packet from my aunt, Rikke, and that really help my mood. I WANT a better week next week and it is going to be!

Last Friday
Last friday was a really good day.
I had to wake up a 5:40 like normal, because I had track training in the morning. Normally on a friday you meet a hour later, so at friday I usually wake up at 6:40, which is so confusing, because you keep forgetting that it is friday and you get a heart attack every time you look at your watch.
I arrived at 7:15, I headed for the weight room. I realized that I had forgotten my tennis shoe so I had to do it in my sandals. I picked a weight plate from the wall, 25 pounds/ 11.3 kg and we did some training with it, when we head to lift it over the head I could hear my shoulders making klick noises, nasty, I felt like an old lady.
After train I went which the girls from the team into the restroom to get dressed. I had chosen to wear a navy blue dress, normally I don't wear dresses, but it was friday, so what the hell, right? when I got out of the stall I got my first compliment for my dress from one of the girls.
I went to the library, since it was only 8:06 and the school would start at 8:30 and I knew that my friends hadn't arrived yet. At the library I met Bon or that is what I call her, don't remember her real name, but she calls me paulo, because when she heard I was from Europa, she was thinking about Italy and the Lizzie Mcguire Movie, which is one of her favorite movies and Paulo is the boy in the movie.
DRAMA: I got in said hello to my friends, and got compliments for the dress. we had just finish watching, "Back To The Future." which btw is an awesome movie.
Yesterday Johnathon told me that he wanted to work together on the next project, a 30 sec commercial, but the Last project, which was writing a script I was doing all of the work! so I said to him I wouldn't work with him, because he was a lazy ass.
Johnathon came into the class, he is sitting next to me, we say our daily hello, "Caoimhoe" ( he likes saying like that ) "Johnathon." He slapped a one page script on the desk and two pieces of hard candy," This for you, I hope you can see that I really want to work with you." I was really surpised. I read the scrip and it was kinda funny, so I accepted it. We went outside to go over it. In the end we had a conversion about something totally different, Johnathon was asking if I was going to a halloween Party that was at 10 pm " nope." I answered.
Johnathon- "You should go."
me-" I don't wanna be dressed up like a slut."
Johnathon-" that is true, girls dresses up like sluts."
me-" see! and I don't want to. "
Johnathon-"have you seen mean girls."
me-" yes."
Johnathon- " you would be Linsey Lohan in that movie Mean girls, dressing up like a dead bride, and the others are dressed up like sluts."
me-" haha true."
Johnathon-" but Linsey Lohan is pretty and so are you."
me-"haha."
Johnathon has two sides one that is childish and one nice.
DRAWING I went into the class and got a big smile from my friend Savannah who I side next to, and I got a compliment from Hannah " ahh you look pretty." I brushed, "thank you."
I was asking the people in my area of the class about the way they put their headphones I demonstrated the way they some danish "gangster" guys put their headphones behind their ears. I started of asking the "black" guys, they got confused about my question and hadn't seen it before, funny enough it was a "white" guy name Troy that did it.
ENGLISH We had Vocab test and I was sitting studying when the girl I sit next to comes rushing in the door. We just changed seats yesterday, so I didn't know her very well, but the first thing she said to me was " Shit now I can't cheat." --___-- <---- me. Just when I got away from the guy with bad breath, and now I end up sitting next to a cheater.
She asked if I had done my Vocab I said yes. "shit!"she sat down and called her friend over asked the same question, her friend had also done the vocab " send me the answers ok?" she took her glitter covered phone out.
I tried to cover my test with my arms. After the test we actually had a short conversation. I try not to judge people.
After that I went over to Bon to do an exercise. Bon asked me if I had had any weird episode with guys, I told her the story about a guy saying things to me when I passed him on the street, we laughed.
FORENSIC SCIENCE I was so hungry! luckly Crystale was there to save me and I got some of her veggies. I was making a lot of noise, but it felt good getting something to eat. Ryan the guy I am sitting next to joined me.
We we're going to look at hair with a microscope to see hair patterns, which is pretty cool. I had to be the one giving my hair away, because Justin really didn't have any, Ryan had stuff in his hair and Joey and Crystal didn't want to, but it was fun to see my own hair pattern. We all had to fill out a form with information. Justin asked me how I spelled my name, C, Justin," I thought it was which a Q. C-A-O-I-M-H-E. I loved the face on Justin he was like whaaat? C-A-O-I-M-H-E that is who you spell Caoimhe (qviva) "yes" the others in my group had looked confused
Justin"and where are you from?"
me" I am half danish half irish."
Ryan" but mostly danish right?"
me "yes"
Justin " and this is how you spell it?"
me "yes"
Ryan" what is your last name?"
me " Willemoes" ( saying it the danish way)
I loved they're reaction they had all the "what" face, it is a long time since I have seen that.
I was packing up my bag and a guy called John quickly passes me and say " that is a great dress" " thank you" I smiled back at him, that was so sweet, I have to wear dresses more often. I went out to lunch with a big smile. I nearly forget that it was friday and I had to get to " best of buddies" it is this "club" where you have lunch with the disable children at school. I could only be there shortly after I have to go to P.E. on the other side of the school.
P.E. we are taking notes in P.E., it is really stupid if you ask me. We had to sit closer together so I moved over next to Anthony, I have had a few short conversation with him. When mrs. Rasmussen were talking, children from the other P.E. classes were running on the track.
One of the Michel Jackson twins ( they both do Michel Jackson moves and say michel jackson noises all the time like "IIIiieeee" or "YYeee") where running and he was running really weird, so we couldn't help laughing a bit.
I went to the weight room with Caitlin and Alex. We we're working different machines. I was just messing around with a weird machine when Anthony and Jason came over to me " Think your doing it wrong." said Anthony. I expanded that I didn't know what I was doing. Anthony toke over the machine to demonstrate.
Anthony, "where are you from again?"
me " I am from Denmark."
I could see that didn't really say him or Jason anything.
me "skandinaven"
I could see on they're face they still didn't get it.
me" europe "
Anthony "ahhh"
they we're taking about the weight that it was to weighty for me.
me "not it isn't!"
and Anthony change it from 40 pounds to 80 pounds. I lifted it ones
Anthony" 80 pounds"
me " how much is 80 pounds?"
Anthony " you use something else?"
me " kilos."
Anthony " how much is 80 pounds in kilos?"
Jason " 2 pounds is about 1 kilo so 40."
me " well than it is good."
US HISTORY is always funny I am sitting next to some funny boys, I am having a lot of fun, I bring them danish candy, and they all hate it except this mexican dude, he likes it. I really fell like I got a good seat in that class.

Hello Guys
I think I am going to write some more about my school days. I know I haven't really done it before, but I think it could be important from my blog to see more of my daily life at school. There won't be a lot of photos, because I am very shy about taking my camera to school. I am going to try it out, maybe write my most important day at school, something like that :)

Track
Hey everybody
I was trying the track team at my school this week, since I was looking for an extra after school sport.
I few weeks ago I went into the office and asked for what school activates I could join, but the lady behind the desk said that it was to late. I got really sad, because I really wanted to join something, and I just got my physical. I got my physical very late, since I didn't know I had to have one to join a sport.
The only thing I could get was water polo, I wanted to do water polo, because I have a lot of friends in water polo, but I am a very bad swimmer, so I knew it wouldn't go well at all, they would have to save me from drowning every 10 sec, so that was a no go.

Kitty was waiting by the corner when she normally picks me up after school. I got into the car, and Kitty had great news. A (black) handsome guy had come by the store that day to buy a lot of water. Kitty had notices the RC on he's shirt and asked if he was from Rango High school. It turns out that he was the Track trainer at Rango Cucamonga High School! Kitty told him about me (and my "long" legs) , he said that I should come by on monday.
I came on monday, but I didn't have my training clothes with me. I made a deal with him to meet him on Friday.
Friday.
I had to skip track, because I was given Cookie dough from my drama teacher ( a lot of cookie dough!) and It needed to get in to a fridge as soon as possible, since it was a very hot day.
Monday this week
I showed up, I didn't really want to, but I came.
There was I, a white chick with a loose ponytail and my P.E. clothes on, didn't fell like I really belonged there. I was standing next to a (black) guy and it was so funny, we were standing next to the track and the cross country team was running. This black guy standing next to me and he kept making jokes about the country team. There was a very tall black guy running by. " Oh he run like a slave!" Me laughing "He look like a slave running from a bullet." maybe it isn't so funny when you read it, but it is cracking me up very time I thing about it, because it was so true!
The trainer is also a trainer for the American football team, and he had to train them, so we had to train ourself.
He was say a lot of things something about the time and rounds. I didn't understand what we we're doing, I could fell the panic, and how I just wanted to run away from everybody, I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of the American Football team, cross country or track.
I when over to the trainer and said I couldn't do it, he asked me why. I said that I would be able to do it well, but then he told me that half of the team wasn't good runners, they normally jump or something else. that made me fell better and I decided to do it. I ran 6 rounds without stoping at anytime. I could see that most of the other we're taking breaks or walking.
Thursday
After school. I meet the team after school and people from the team started talking to me, they we're all so sweet. One girl told me she always wondered what a danish person was and that it made sense that they came from Denmark.
We we're running up and down stairs, it was hard, but nice. I felt really good.
It is really funny, because I am the only white person, not that it matters, but Kitty told me that it would normally be latino or Afro Americans that would be on track.
Friday
Friday before school. Friday is normally a day where you meet late, but here you meet at normal time.
we we're in the weight room lifting. I was lifting 25 pounds/ 11.5 kgs, It was hard but I could find anything else. I knew after the training that I wanted to join the track team.

I was trying the track team at my school this week, since I was looking for an extra after school sport.
I few weeks ago I went into the office and asked for what school activates I could join, but the lady behind the desk said that it was to late. I got really sad, because I really wanted to join something, and I just got my physical. I got my physical very late, since I didn't know I had to have one to join a sport.
The only thing I could get was water polo, I wanted to do water polo, because I have a lot of friends in water polo, but I am a very bad swimmer, so I knew it wouldn't go well at all, they would have to save me from drowning every 10 sec, so that was a no go.

Journal #1
Hey all
I have to make a journal in art. I really like the idea. We have to include drawings, sketches, material and writing.
Here are some pages from my journal:
My Journal, I taped it with duck tape from Target.
This is my FRONT page. I drew swans, because it is the national bird of Denmark, and one of my favorite Irish myths is about children that get turned into swans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children_of_Lir
A page I made for MJ when it was his birthday :)
I was really loving this song, where they we're singing about colors so I a made a page.
A better picture of the MJ page.
We had an assignment were we had to draw a hand, I wasn't pleased with what I turned in, so I decided to draw a hand in my book.
I wrote about how big everything is in America. I was lost in the Grocery store for 20 mins trying to find ice.
I wanted to speak to my dad, so I made him this page :)
A bit random. A page with U2 lyrics.
A page for Homecoming.
I wanted to compare the photos to a Danish party, so I took some Facebook photos. :)
I saw this on a album cover of an random band Kings of Leon had liked on Facebook and drew it in my book. I thought it looked cool :)
A map of Denmark, so I can show people were I live when they ask.
I was really tired that day, but I had to do one last drawing, so I did it on an old essay with the title " Its about putting a smile on your face." meaning keep going on.
I thought this was cool, because its half sketch, half drawing.
My drama teacher Mr. Kuhn told me " Time is your enemy. " and that inspired me to draw her.
Halloween is near, and so is CANDY CORN.
I kinda like this one. It was random that I drew her. I got the idea of putting newspaper as background and there was an article about a Veteran's memorial, how perfect, right?
"Wow" just went through my head many times that day.
Alice in Zombieland.
Whatever you are be a good one.
Forensic science.
Randomly.
I am not done with this one, but it is about all the colors of music.
