Guess What!

Soo, guess what I did yesterday!
I LEARNED TO DRIVE A CAR, and no, I did not kill (or hit) anyone.
Well, kind of. The car was a stick shift so i only learned first and second gears. Which is cool. But as I was driving everyone I passed was like
'WHOA! there's a white lady driving!' Pretty funny right?
Any ways, I was driving in the back roads of our neighbor hood where there are a bunch of old abandoned houses, and at the end of the rode I found the peacock hide out. Like no joke, there were at least 25 peacocks in the road! it was amazing! Anyways, my driver, Surrender, was the one teaching me to drive, and he was really calm. He didn't get angry when I talked like a stupid teenage girl, and if I started to do something wrong he told me and fixed it with me. Hes basically a really nice guy. So today I'm hoping to get one of my parents in the car (: (I think they might think Ill kill them) But I want them to be there when I learn to drive.
You know? just a crazy thing that I want. I mean don't parents usually teach their kids to drive? and not their hired driver?
Anyways, I have had a pretty exciting week. On Tuesday was Republic day so there was a massive a parade through parliament and India Gate Road. And we had no school! So I read, alot. I think I have finished like 5 600 page books this week. Thats what happens when you dont watch tv, and when you get sick ):
So, Im gonna go drive the carr.

So over the past week I have gone to my friend's (Terran) birthday party, which was at fun city. WE went on bumper cars, played john Rambo, AND WON THE LOTTERY!
wohoo!
So, in total we got 563 tickets, not enough to buy our skate board yet, but we will eventually.
Anyways, today is Tuesday the 26 of January, and we have no school! wohhoo! (We still have homework though ): ) Anyways, this quarter will be kind of hectic for me (so dont expect alot of blogging) I have about 5 concert's with the orchestra. Yeah, I play the violin. Also this quarter we get spring break! Hello JAPAN! I'm excited, to say the least. Anyways, that's still awhile to go and I have homework , so laterss.

First week back from break. (THis was supposed to be published along time ago!)


So, My schedual is pretty good
I have
Strings first Period
Then Maths (ew!)
Then p.e
Then Biology
Then Spanish
Then American Stucies ( I have the funniest teacher ever!)
Then Free (Whoo!)
Then English, which is a pretty fun class.
So this past week we the old couple missonaries came back to visit everyone here in Delhi, and I went to Priya, which is mainly the highlights of the week. I read a couple books this week, and they were pretty good. And Im running out of things to say...
So today at church I sang for a baptism of a really sweet girl named Pooja. (It seems every week there is a baptism! Which is good (: ) Anyways we sang teach me to walk in the light, which I also learned to play on my handy dandy violin saturday. My tutor, Ganesh, was looking through my sisters box of piano music, found the hymn book, and we played about 20 different hymns. Which was way fun and spirutual. It was actually kind of funny, my teacher would look at the title of the song and give his opinion about it. (for example - teach me to walk in the light - 'this is good McKenna, you must learn this. we must walk in the light and not the dark with jesus.') OH! Also this weekend my mate Ldia came over and we beat most of Halo 1 together, and it was alot of fun. (Yesterday me and my brother beat all of Halo! I feel so acomplished!) Chloe started gymnastics too, so I have been teaching her to do cartwheels and round offs properly, which is alot of fun. Chloe, Mum, and I also played with chalk today and had alot of fun with that!

It's Halo time.

As my halo character 'jesus' was recovering from a rocket launcher incident, i realized you can get some pretty great quotes from halo players.
my favorites are:
'COME AND GET ME! im young and juicy!' - my brother
'come here'-max my cousin
'try some of this *throw granade*' - max
'*series of girl screams* - my brother
'NO! you Idiot!''What?! i killed him!''NO YOU KILLED ME!' - my brother and sid
'die gosh darnit DIE!'- my brother
' eat my LEAD! MWAAHAHAHA!' - sid
'oh snap.'- max
'hey hey, i killed you!' - max
'hold on, your friend and I are busy. were having a moment'- max
'look a tank! *die*' - my brother
'why dont ou come over here?'
'ill come over, and we will dance with pistols!''if by pistols you mean rocket launchers, then yes.' - max and sid
'LETS ALLL GO ON THE ROOF AND HAVE A PARRTY! ill bring the grenades!' max
'ITS PARRTY TIME!' - max
'Im the one shooting the shotgun!''youre also the one with a grenade on your foot'
'lets see if you can run me over' 'okay! *run him over*''darn.' - max and sid

So, next time some one around you is playing a video game, stop and listen. even if the gain up on you and kill your man.

The adventures of King Arthur and Lancelot.

So yesterday I did many thing's that probably aren't very 'mature'. But what can you expect out of a fifteen year old?
So yesterday I tried to go see Avatar (which is probably the best movie ever. I mean who doesn't want to be 12 feet tall blue people with sparkling freckles?) with my friend, Lydia Phillips (Essex, England), but there was only one seat. So what did we do?
We spent every last rupee of our pocket money in fun city.
So, to sum up what we did we:
  • punched small fish
  • hit ghost's in the face
  • stole tickets out of the machines
  • shot over 200 soldiers
  • escaped an army of Indians (native American Indians) on horse back
  • hit the jackpot (well, we were really close)
  • punched little kids in the face (it was a game, on a screen. no pain was inflicted on small children)
  • hit the weasels
  • and kicked a penalty ball
And what did we get for a prize?
a pen and a waldo notebook. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it did keep two hormonal teenage girls busy with coloring for an hour or two.
any ways we came home and watched King Arthur.
I decided I was Lancelot. Lydia wanted to be Arthur.
Turns out Lancelot dies and Arthur totally steals my girl. hoe.
Anyways, after that Lydia acted out a whole scene from 'UP' for me, with the different voices, and i must say, she did excellent... for a woman stealing hoe.
(:

Shimla शिमला

We visited Shimla for Ghandi's birthday in 2006. Shimla is a small hill-station in the Himalayas, which is pretty cool. But it's absolutely CRAZY, so during the drive up to Shimla you go on a windy rode, that's about 12 feet (4 meters) wide, and then its a complete dro poff and the road is falling away. Craapy? yes. Our driver is driving was fast as our car will allow him. You can be assured, I did not look out the windows. Well, actually I did, and I saw rocks fall away from the rode over the edge... Yeah, I didn't look again. anyways, after awhile I fell asleep, which was nice. But all to soon our driver said, very loudly, 'THIS IS MY COUNTRY!' and beat his chest. Waking Me, Maddie (my lovely older sister), and Ashley (our lovely friend from Utah). Soon enough we were whizzing through the city where people were running through the roads and dodging cars. There were dogs in dumpsters, yes, In the dumpster. No jokes. After about an hour, and many phone calls later (my dad was calling to tell the driver to slow down.every.two.minutes.) we arrived at our hotel. the hotel was pretty big and pretty. It also had a really cool pool, the wall's had these big windows on them, and if you looked out the side of the window, you come to find that the pool, is sticking out over the ledge. with nothing under it. Yeah, creepy. Anyways, in Shimla I meet up with my friend Isabelle (from Washington State) and her fan-damily (our family's are still good friends, and we are going on vacation soon together!). Isabelle, Emmet (her little brother), Robbie (my little brother), and I started to play tag and run around like that crazy kids we are. Then the elevator accidentally came to the basement, I swear on my life and yours when the doors opened fog came rolling out from all the doors, a creepy orchestra started playing, and lightning struck (but hey, I do have a vivid imagination).
For the rest of the vacation we went on a beautiful horse riding trail with really pretty horses (:, and we wen't up to Englands 'summer ruling palace' which was STUNNING (the british thought it was too hot in Delhi to be there in the summer, so in the summer they went into the mountains). We also went to an outside Mall/market. Which was pretty fun, up till the point where a monkey urinated on me and then laughed. I was pretty grossed out, I still am. I hate monkeys.alot.

Mia Pauline is the definiton of 'freaking coolest kid on earth'

When I moved to India, when I was 11, I meet this lovely little girl while crossing the holy Ganges river. What was her name? Mia Pauline. We were on a school group and assigned to cross the ganga at a part with some SERIOUS currents. I dont think there was one person who wasnt drenched in water when we got to the other side. Anyways, we formed a chain, and I ended up with Mia, who later became my best friend.Why did we become best friends? Probably because while everyone was shivering, and complaining, Mia was laughing and smiling. Today, Mia became my first follower, and I know i told her to become my folower, and it SO counts, because she was pretty excited to do it. Isn't she great? Anyways Mia is probably the coolest Australian I have even met, she's sweet, beautiful, funny, kind, and caring. And she has an amazing family, and a cool accent. I love you Mia(:

(Oh, Mimi, I'm sorry. I tried to upload a picture, but it won't work ): )

I got a blog. (:

So, one day my older sisters made a blog.
At the time my only response was, '...why are you telling me this? It's not like I'm going to read it or anything.' Well, I did read it, and to tell you the truth, it looked like fun. Plus, I justed watched Juile and Julia (or is it the other way around?) where the character Juile became famous because of her bolgging. Like Hello! Who doesn't want to be famous?
So, here I am, writting on my new blog in India. So I will soon, put up little posts about each vacation I have gone to since my move to India. So, Keep reading?
(:
