Awesome Birthday
I had an amazing birthday this Sunday. I had sixteen people over at my mums boyfriends house and we had pizza and cake. I got $261, an xbox 360, and band hero to share with my twin. I haunt played it yet because it is still monday, though i am at my Opas playing hooky from school. There was lots of crying at Dame's and i's party but there was still people having a good time that i know of anyways. We watched a part of the original Alice in wonderland but then most of us ended up playing the truth game. Brody had to leave early being that he is a guy and sarah went with him she really wasn't feeling well and i don't know if she is feeling better yet because she was not at school this morning when i was still there. Now i am at my Opas in his iPad, him and Damiana are playing mario kart wii and im waiting for my dad to get back. :)

Ooops.
Sorry Readers (if there is) but I have just realized that my blog wont allow people to comment. My guess is because of the background. I will fix that as soon as I am not in school and can download a better one. :) Sorry for the inconvenience
