My Final Post of 2009

Well, you crazy Yabo-Maniacs, my time year, blogging wise, is over. This will be my final 2009 post. This year, I'd like to have a 2009 Year in Review. I will be blogging about my feelings of what happened in the news this year:

Chris Brown, Kanye West, and Tiger Woods have lost any ounce of respect that they ever had from me. I said it.

Celebrities have passed:

• Natasha Richardson, the mother from "The Parent Trap"
• Michael Jackson, the King of Pop
• Billy Mays, The only person I've ever known to yell when they're happy
• Farrah Fawcett, Charlie's Favorite Angel
• Brittany Murphy, That one actress that seemed likable.

And so many more. Just think, millions of lives could be saved. Just call now, and adopt one these fragile celebrities. You, yes you, can save a life. (This is me turning celebrities into those puppies from those Humane Society commercials)

We have our first black President in office *Applause* I know everyone who reads this blog HATES him, so I'll leave it at that. By the way, I'm a Democrat.

Health care reform. Blah Blah Blah.

It's been a HUGE year for social networking. Twitter. Facebook.

Jim and Pam got married on The Office.

Jon and Kate Plus 8 are losers.

David Letterman still has my respect. I don't know why.

Wow. Now that I think about it, this year wasn't that exciting. Hmmm.

Well gotta go. Sorry for making such a lame year in review. I thought I might've had more to say. Sorry/// Well, I'm wishing you all a fantastic New Year. Please stay healthy and hearty.

Color Me Gone for one final time in oh-nine,

Day 29 and Day 30: A great Christmas so far, and by the way......I GOT A SHIRT WITH MY FACE ON IT!

Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome Christmas come this way
Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome Christmas, Christmas day

Welcome, welcome fahoo ramus
Welcome, welcome dahoo damus
Christmas day is in our grasp
So long as we have hands to clasp

Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome Christmas bring your cheer
Fahoo fores dahoo dores
Welcome all Whos far and near

It's been a fantastic Christmas so far! Last night was fun! I love the gift exchange and when Jef- I mean Santa, comes to visit! However, I didn't feel the greatest. My stomach didn't hurt, but it felt a little queazy and my mother was begging for the fire to be on, which I didn't want or need. I got home, tested out a ShamWOW (It's kinda bogus.) Watched Chelsea Lately and headed off to DreamLand. I had trouble getting to sleep! I didn't fall asleep till about midnight and was quickly woken up by Paige at 7:10. "Zach we can open our presents now." Um, NO. Presents are nice, but every time I open presents I feel bad because now I have to wait a whole another year until I get to do it again. I try to savor every moment. So I replied, "5 more minutes" and proceeded to slam my face back into my pillow. 5 minutes later, I'm being told that yes, it has been 5 minutes. I get up, and go downstairs with the rest of my family. We had to wait for mom though because she had to let Kobe out through the front door since the back door was frozen shut and the snow was up to our waists. Mom leaving meant more time to spare! She did, however, return and we opened our presents. I have to say, my presents were pretty sweet!!!! I got a new knit cap, pants, a Pittsburgh Pirates Christmas ornament, iTunes, A "The Office" calendar for my room, candy, $10 gift card to Targetto. Also.............an iHome!!!!! A lamp for me to read in my room at night!!!!! A picture of my Memaw for my room!!! A hunting game for the Wii!! And a bedside table. Now, I have to admit, the bedside table is a funny story. In 4th grade, I got a stuff animal that I became obsessed with. It was like a little puffin, a relative of the penguin. My mom had recently purchased a coffee maker, and I took the box to make a home for my stuffed animal. Over the next 3 years, the box became a little table for me to rest my cups, books, etc on. It irked my mom, but I found the box useful. Now, FINALLY, I have a table to set all my things on!!! Yayyyy!!!!! However, I must never forget that box that got me through over the years. I have placed in the basement, and labeled it, "Zach's Box."

And. Finally. Another story about another gift. Last night at the gift exchange, I picked a box that I was hoping had an entertaining shirt in it. It did! It had a shirt with my face (which I didn't even recognize!!!!!!) and the name of my blog on it. I was ecstatic to have been lucky enough to receive that shirt. Then, right out of the blue, my Uncle Al stole it from me. I was downcast. I then received a cocktail book. Thanks for taking that off my shoulders, Sarah. And then I got a dashboard thing for my car. I don't have a car. We'll keep that one in the basement for a few years....I went home and while I was in bed, I started putting two and two together. Why had Al stolen it from me? Why had my mother not let me steal it back? Hmmmmm. This morning, I got the pleasant surprise I was hoping for. Signed from Uncle Al, I got the shirt in a perfect size. The two other shirts from the exchange had problems, and I was getting the perfect shirt in the morning. So, now, I want to thank Mom and Uncle Al, for concocting this plan for me. The shirt is amazing.

Merry Christmas to one and all! It's been a great 30 days.....even if I skipped a few times!!!! Can't wait till next year!

Day 27 and 28: A(nother) Blizzard is Coming.

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

I am mad. A blizzard is coming and is allegedly going to ruin my Christmas. If my Christmas is ruined by snow, I will be a very unpleasant blogger. I can assure you. And another thing. Yes, we already had 3 snow days, but the one day there's an ice storm we don't get another snow day. Cuz we have break. hahah.

And may I remind you this isn't the first "blizzard" we've had this December? Why do we need another one? Why you gotta be like that, Mother Earth?

Now, there is something I want to talk about. Jared and I both have very different tastes in music. Recently, Jared has became obsessed with this band called, "All Time Low." I think they are just alright, better than some bands he listens to. And, now, finally, All Time Low has given me and Jared the opportunity to agree on a song. It's called "Remembering Sunday," and I just finished playing it for the 3rd or 4th time on YouTube. It's a great song, I'm not gonna lie. And, since Jared doesn't read this blog, he'll never know that I admitted defeat!

Day 26: America, Shut Your Face

Here we come a-caroling
Among the leaves so green,
Here we come a wand'ring,
So fair to be seen.

So, America has angered me with their reactions to last night's winner of Survivor, Natalie White. I know that most of my readers don't tune into Survivor, so here's what you need to know. Russell Hantz, from day one, has been a complete jerk. He has manipulated the game, broken promises, and overall been a complete loser. Natalie has ridden on his back the entire time, sneaking her way through, while Russell made despicable moves. Last night, the jury voted for Natalie to win the game, a million dollars, and the title of Sole Survivor. Americans are displeased. Some state that Russell played the game incredibly and made big moves that often changed the game and that he deserved to win the game. I beg to differ.

Natalie played the game wisely. She stayed silent while Russell made the big moves that cost him the game. What Russell didn't realize is that Survivor is a social game. You can NOT go around, shoot off your big mouth, have an arrogant attitude, and over-sized ego, and expect to win this game. Natalie hooked on with the jerk-of-a-leader, played a good social game, and got people to like her. Russell was just a jerk, who manipulated the game, which eventually cost him the game. Natalie deserved the win, and I'm glad she got it.

PS Who guessed number 10?????????

Day 24: This post has two titles: About to Lose It and Who Guessed It?

All I want for Christmasis my two front teeth,my two front teeth,see my two front teeth!


About to Lose It

You know that one actress, Brittany Murphy, the one who was the girl Penguin in Happy Feet? Well, apparently she has died of Cardiac Arrest at age 32. Her death has killed my happy day. :( Cardiac Arrest is the same cause of death of Michael Jackson. There is a lot going on. Death: Natural causes? Cardiac arrest? What? Her husband is refusing an autopsy. What is he hiding? I can't help but think the worst. It's weird. She has allegations of plastic surgery and drugs in the past, but she has came out and said that its all FALSE. I've said it before, I'll say it again. WikiPedia, the Free Encyclopedia, is an abundant amount of information. Just call me Ryan Seacrest. No, actually don't. Don't call me Ryan Seacrest.

Who Guessed It?

Who guessed the number "10" correctly. It's been 10 this whole time. Leave an honest comment now, or forever hold your peace. If you lie, I will find out, and you won't get a gift.

Day 23 and 24: Planets and Aliens

I'm Mister White Christmas
I'm Mister Snow
I'm Mister Icicle
I'm Mister Ten Below
Friends call me Snow Miser,
What ever I touch
Turns to snow in my clutch
I'm too much!

Today, I thought we'd talk about aliens. Recently, we talked about Earth, moon, and sun in Science class. Next chapter we will continue talking about our solar system. Ever since 10 minutes ago, I have been extremely fascinated with the planets. Particularly Mercury and Neptune. And also, Uranus! Hahaha, I hope Joe is reading this. haha.

Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, which I find extremely scary. What if the Sun decides that he/she wants to move a little closer. Good luck with everything, Mercury.

Neptune is all by him/herself at the end, now that that minority of a planet Pluto is out of the picture. If the sun goes on a major rampage, Neptune will be the last official planet knocked out of the solar system. Unless, of course, the sun goes in different directions instead of a straight line. Then, it would fair game for everyone.

Now I would like to discuss aliens. Nay. Extra terrestrials. I don't believe in them. There are a few planets named "Terrestrial planets," meaning they have similarities to planet Earth. Same rock and stuff. Well, if there are living beings of the 4th kind living on other planets, how come they aren't smart enough to, I don't know, build space probes, and space stations, and other space buildings and launch them into space. Only people from planet Earth have done that. And I find it hard to believe that even if there are extra terrestrials, they cannot find a way to do something that we have been doing for over 50 years. Wow. I'm pretty good at this Scientology stuff. Thank you for reading my intellectualocity.

By the way, no one didn't get the poll right.......Again.........

Days 20, 21, and 22: Sorry, OK!

We didn't mean, to make you frown
Release our kids, and put them down

Sorry for not blogging for a few days. I needed a break.

Last night I went to the Creighton game. It was bombin'. Creighton almost blew it (like always) in the second half, but of course came back and eventually won. Yip. Pee.

Today was the final regular day of school for 2009. Thank God. Tomorrow we go to church, clean, and have our Christmas parties. I am BEYOND ready for my Christmas break. Like I said, people always need a break once in a while! And guess what?! I already have 3, I repeat, 3 Christmas presents under the Christmas tree! That's more the anyone in my whole family! Wowza! Maybe, just maybe, it's gonna be my year!

Day 19: Clarification

Have a holly, jolly Christmas;
It's the best time of the year
I don't know if there'll be snow
but have a cup of cheer
Have a holly, jolly Christmas;
And when you walk down the street
Say Hello to friends you know
and everyone you meet.

I would like to make a clarification regarding my the title of my previous post. The phrase, "gato es fea" is a common phrase used by one of my classmates, that he made up while we were playing a Spanish game. It has no reference to any human, just a simple statement proclaiming that the feline is unattractive. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The play went AMAZING! And so did today's performance. Everyone memorized their lines and sang their songs beautifully. Congratulations, to all!!!!!!!!

3 1/2 more days till Christmas break!

peace OUT home DAWG!

Day 18: Gato es Fea!

Children, sleeping.Snow is softly falling.Dreams are calling,Like bells in the distance.We were dreamers,Not so long ago.But one by one, weAll had to grow up.When it seems the magic slipped away...We find it all again on Christmas Day

Gato es fea is spanish. It translates to Cat is an ugly girl. Lol. Sorry. I'm a little nervous. Tonight is the quote big night end quote. We're performing The Christmas Carol tonight and I'm about to go get a diaper for myself. I'm extremely nervous and I'm freaking out. I apologize. I am too nervous. I have to go. Wish me luck. Gato es fea.

Day 17: WE WON!

Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
Out jumps good ol' Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys

Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, Ho, Ho! Who wouldn't go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,

Yes. I am proud to tell you that my team won our basketball game today......................becuase the other team didn't show up...............................................yeah.

So. Well, the Heisman is tonight. And I am pulling for a win for Ndamukong Suh. Ndamukong is a really fun name to say, even if you have no idea how to say it. Which many people don't. Don't believe Suh should win? Take a looksie. http://www.faniq.com/article/Ndamukong-Suh-should-win-the-Heisman-Trophy-1920816?ref=fromTS

Day 16: Losers

I'll be home for Christmas;
You can count on me.
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree.

You are all losers. No one correctly guessed the answer on the poll. Therefore, I will put the poll back up. Until someone guesses correctly. However this time I will put up the numbers that weren't guessed. And, there will be a prize. A ten dollar gift card to Target! Whoever guesses the correct answer, I will give them the gift card. But, you have to let me know if you correctly guessed it. Otherwise I will keep the gift card to myself!

Yaaaaaaaaawn.

Ugh. Right now I am putting my legs up against the back of the computer desk and dude I think my legs have GROWWN. They're feeling quite cramped up. Not usual though////////////

Wow. I'm like really starving. Ha ha. Well today was yet another snow day. It was, once again, relaxing. And guess what? I don't have school tomorrow either. It's Stewardship Day. Really, its a day off because of the Christmas Program (that got canceled) WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY TIME TO REHEARSE THIS WEEK. We need to rehearse. The play is Sunday.

Day 11: Wearing Your Pajamas Inside Out

O Christmas Tree,O Christmas Tree,How steadfast areyour branches!Your boughs are greenin summer's climeAnd through the snowsof wintertime.O Christmas Tree,O Christmas Tree,How steadfast areyour branches!

A lot of people may think that I'm too old to be wearing my pajamas inside out, but I've been through this much school, and rode all that way tonight on the interstate, I am MULLING for a snow day. Yes, this week is huge for rehearsals, but I need a day off. I NEED it. I hate school. I hate math class. I hate it. Math is so stupid. The only reason I go there is because all of my friends are at school. And there are certain classes that I do enjoy. But math needs to go. Especially due to the the fact that what we're learning is completely pointless and I will never use this outside of school. Never. Therefore, I feel completely obligated to wear my pajamas inside out.

Well, I saw everyone tonight for Jared and Kelsey's celebration. The cake was good, the football game was nice. Pretty cool hangout.

I am still mad about the Texas-Nebraska game, so I will rant. That one old man fat referee does NOT, I repeat, does NOT like Nebraska. He hates them. And he was happy to call that last second. I. Hate. Texas. Mk?

Day 10: Tiger Woods Picks His Nose And Eats It

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,But the fire is so delightful,And since we've no place to go,Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.



Is there anyone else completely annoyed with this guy? I mean seriously, he's one of those guys who you never expected to do something like that. But I'm still confused about a couple of things:

• Why was he leaving his house that late at night?
• Why did the affair accusations come up after the car accident, what does that have to do with anything they were talking about?

These are the questions that haunt me.

Well the Nebraska Huskers ruined my entire weekend. I hate referees. I don't care who reads this. Referees HATE the Nebraska Huskers. Every single one of them. And like every other bandwagon American, they love the Texas Longhorns. Now I am in a bad mood. Sorry, everybody-don't blame me, blame the Huskers.

Day 9: Hallejuiah or However you spell it, its Friday!

Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening?
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

It's FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By far one of the best days of the week, fo sho. Now I have a whole two and a half days of no school. I can sleep in. I can stay up later. I can party. And, might I add, there is only 3 more weeks until CHRISTMAS! My favorite holiday!

Well, I am home alone at present, and I am blasting music. I just watched an intense music video! The song is called Happy by Leona Lewis, and its all about wanting to be happy, whatever. The music video shows the singer in love, and well, happy. Then, she's at her wedding. The preacher pronounces the man and wife. Then, it is revealed that all along, she has been imagining herself as a happy person in love, when really, her best friend is living this fantasy. What....a buzzkill.

Hahaha, there is this hilarious sketch from MadTV called Bon Qui Qui at King Burger. Its about a trashy cashier who is lazy, rude, and ignorant. It's, hilarious. Then, there is another HILARIOUS sketch called Miss Swan at the ATM. Its about an ignorant lady (questionably based on Bjork) Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I love MadTV, but, sorry, Saturday Night Live is and always will be better. Tough luck.

Day 6: A Change of Heart....Sort Of

Frosty the Snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snowman
Is a fairytale they say
He was made of snow
But the children know
How he came to life one day

Happy Taco Tuesday! Well, I am may regret telling you this but....I've had a change of heart.

I am now no longer against naps. Yes, I know. Your shocked. But before you hyperventilate, I must tell you this: I still hate naps more than anything in the whole world. What I enjoy are accidental naps. It's pretty self-explanatory. A nap is when you purposely fall asleep in order to get rest because you are tired. An Accidental Nap is where you accidentally fall asleep, but its still good because you are tired and need rest. The reason I hate naps so much is because I can never EVER fall asleep purposely during the day. However, if I am laying on my couch and turn on my side just to rest my eyes, and I end up falling asleep, that is an accidental nap. And I love them. Its a complete accident! So, now. I am officially a fan of Accidental Naps! Whoo hoo!

I have a headache, so I'm gonna go get a caffeinated soda drink. I don't know why, but that always seems to help.
