Greetings Earthlings

Hey y'all, sup?
I'm trying to get back into the whole posting on my blog groove. Not sure how long it'll last though xD
Today was a Pitt State competition thingy, and I went to it to play piano. I'm not sure how well I did considering my hands were doing their whole "I'm nervous you can't make me hold still long enough to hit the right notes" thing.
I'll start at the beginning of the day. Mom woke me up, and I'm not sure what time she woke me up cause my clock hasn't been set since the last electricity blink, so at the moment even though it's 3:22 my clock is blinking 8:16. I only know the right time because of the little clocky thingy in the far low right hand corner of my computer.
After that I told her "Momma, my throat's sore :( " and she gave me a spearmint candy while I tried to figure out what to wear. Yeah you'd think that for a competition I would have my outfit picked out weeks in advance. Actually, I'd forgotten all about it till. . . Sometime earlier this week. Which is actually better because if I remember about it I stress about it to the point where I feel sick.
I ended up wearing a long pretty red skirt, with a light brown shirt. And put my hair into a side ponytail. I'm a ponytail girl. They insisted I wear shoes, so I wore my blue socks, and grey shoes. They also wouldn't let me wear my funky socks!
Then I ran through every song except the one I played for competition while waiting for Grammy and Grampy to come and get Mom and me so we could pick up Ronda, and go to Pittsburg. Yes I spelled it correctly, this is the one in Kansas, not the one in PA.
I ended up eating a pickle too, while waiting, but Mom wouldn't let me eat another one.
Finally they arrived (they being the afore mentioned relatives) and I rode behind Papa, and Mom rode behind Grammy.
Then we got Ronda, and we had a fun car ride to Pitt State, where we got donuts, and I told Mom to never send me there because it was too big.
Then we went to the room we were to be playing in, and I was the last one who played anything, and I played Black Forest Polka from the Alfred Lesson Book level four, of course I really don't get the title, it makes no sense.
Mom said that she thought she saw the lady judge write down a one, but that she probably shouldn't have told me. One is the highest you can get by the way. I'll find out for sure tomorrow. In the meantime I'm waiting to see, because I think I messed up enough times to have possibly gotten as low as a three. Of course I'm HOPING for a one or a two.
After all that we ate at Cafe Del Rio, and that jingle is stuck in my head! They have pretty good food there, but I don't know if it's like Grammy and Grampy say, and better than the other good Mexican restaurant who's name I can't figure out how to spell.
Then we went to the mall, and because we had no money (we spent it all on food) we window shopped, and then we went into a clothing shop where there was lots of awesome looking clothes. Oh help. I'm turning into a typical teen girl! Well except for being crazy over Taylor Lautner (who isn't that cute, let alone hot)
After that we came home, and I am now typing this out, having a chat message with my big brother, and video chatting with an awesome guy.
Signing out from somewhere,
Katie
