On the Second Day of Christmas I Went to the Mall

My sister and I went to the mall today. I bought a few things, and did some canvasing for the Christmas party performance. We spent about two hours in the mall looking for art supplies for her two daughters. By the time we were ready to pay it was already seven. The line wasn't that long. There were only two people in front of us. But you see, multitasking is something that comes natural to her. Actually, I think that right now, it's a habit. Anyway, while we were waiting in line, she gave me her phone so that I could tell our driver to come pick us up. A few minutes later, she gave me her wallet, and said that she was going to go look at some of the clocks nearby.
I just laughed and said okay. Then, it was finally our turn to pay. While this was happening, my sister asked if she could get the case she got before they put it in the plastic bag. I asked why, then she just shrugged and then said "Okay. Never mind."
So yeah. There you have a few hours in the mall with my sister.

On the First Day of Christmas, I had my first BPP

So today, I experienced my first business plan presentation. I was really nervous. I only had to explain four slides, but they seemed really long during the final presentation. It was still a good experience though.
My parents aren't home, so they weren't able to be there for the presentation, but my sister was able to go. Of course her presence didn't make me any less nervous. I mean, she presents business plans pretty often. I haven't actually seen her present one, but my dad says she's pretty convincing. Anyway, after the whole presentation, she smiled at me and gave a thumbs up. I felt good after that. But I'm not so sure if I'm excited to do another one next year.

LEMONADE

As a little girl, I used to dream of being a princess
With sparkling tiaras, a knight, and white horses
But as time flew
I realized, not all fairy tales come true

As I entered the gates of high school
I started having parties in my pool
With all the stress from school
I started to think education wasn't cool

But as I grew up
I learned that life wasn't a cup of tea

CHORUS
Second by second
Minute by minute
Hour by hour
Day by day
Year by year
Life is so blurry when will it be clear

Now I've got a bigger responsibility
And life ain't lookin' that easy
With all this work crashing on me
I need a break so send me to Hawaii

It's been years since life started to unfold
And right now I feel quite old
And as my memories start to fade
I remember, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade

CHORUS
Second by second
Minute by minute
Hour by hour
Day by day
Year by year
Life was once blurry, but now it's clear

The Truth I've Been Hiding

Is honesty fine with you?
Can you handle it?
Should I tell you you?
Or should I just keep quiet?

I know it isn't easy
I know it's hard to hear
And I know that when I tell you
You will try to fight back your tears

But the truth isn't hidden anymore
It's completely visible to you
You're just trying to close that door,
And pretend that you never knew

Open that door
Then hold on to a friend and keep going
Then get ready to accept what's outside it
And have no fear when honesty comes knocking

ICE CREAM!

Ice cream is so good
It is sweet and really good
And it's very cold
Nothing but silence,
It's quite a big surprise how,
One thought is so loud

Glad to Leave

You went through so much,
And you seemed so happy to go,
Just wish I knew you more
