Some people dropped some 10,000 bouncy balls of a San Francisco building.

Ok, so yeah. I said I wouldn’t post until I’d finished Harry Potter, but I’ve read half the series already and I was getting impatient.

This morning I started cleaning my room. Well perhaps not really cleaning as much as throwing away just about everything. It took all day basically, and when I was done I was left with an insane pile of trash.

So we ended up with a Sequoia full of stuff to give to charity (probably a good $400-500 just in Old Navy stuff) and tons of toys and trinkets. That’s right; trinkets.

And then a 30-gallon trash bag full of… trash, in addition to a foot-and-a-half tall stack of paper to recycle.

I’m left with 3 of 6 drawers in my dresser empty, 1 drawer in my night stand, most of my bottom shelf, and a closest much larger than I’ve ever seen it. So, basically I did something for once.

And heres a recap of stuff I’d forgotten about. Thought you might enjoy a laugh:

arminshirtWhy yes. That’s my face. On a shirt. (Why do shirts shrink vertically and not horizontally? I grow the other way.)

canyoudoaflipTranslation: Can you do a flip?

ilovemomTranslation: I love Mom.

catsarecutehis one was hard to decipher.
Translation: I liked cats because they are cute.
I don’t know why I stopped liking them…

ilovemydadTranslation: I love my Dad.
Still working on those pesky D’s.

atthebeachTranslation: At the beach I play.

ilovemysisterTranslation: I love my sister.

Well, that’s all. I did find a surprising amount of drawings (though nothing good enough to spend the time putting it up). I’m not sure why I stopped…

Anywho, I’m pooped, and my mom’s dragging me out somewhere tomorrow morning.
G’night.

So let’s take a look at my summer reading list:
Tuesday’s with Morrie – Mitch Albom
Old World Encounters – Jerry Bentley
Monkey – Ch’engen Wu
What was the author trying to convey about the culture and history of the inhabitants of the novel (<2 pages)

Yes, that’s right; I’m done.
I’m not sure how I’ll do on that Old World Encounters test seeing as my brain fell asleep several times while reading it, but… that’s going to have to be okay…

Anywho, I’m about to start reading the entire Harry Potter series.
And I’m not posting again till I’m done reading :P

So I’ll leave you with a list of what’s left to read
Sorcerer’s Stone (7.24.05)
Chamber of Secrets (7.25.05)
Prisoner of Azkaban (7.26.05)
Goblet of Fire
Order of the Phoenix
Half-Blood Prince

And to make things better, I just remembered I have a bag of gummy worms in my desk.

So long and no thanks for the Swedish fish.

edit: I said I wouldn’t post till I finished the books (half-way through Sorcerer!), so I’ll just have to add it to this.
My dad screwed up the pressure washer (turned it on when the water was turned off; propeller melted), so he took it to this Persian mechanic that can fix just about anything, but decided not to get it fixed and buy a more powerful one. So Mr. Persian Mechanic says he can rip the engine out and build a go-cart around it :O That would be pretty cool… and why not? It’s just going to sit around useless in the basement… but the engine’s only 5HP, so I dunno…
We’ll see what happens

re-edit: Debo came back from Mehico today. He’s such a pyimp. :)

no no not me! never!

armin has a nasty habit of looking in other peoples boxes without asking first. good thing he didnt open the Ahmad tea box.

only armin makes kissing noises with his gum. but he says it has nothing to do with the gum. its all fun.

waiting for armin to spill his heart out, but nada. (just pour it out. weeee)

armin thinks i should water my sand box. but why i ask?

hmm this is going to be a long night. armin should have said yes to the ice cream. i mean it’s even strawberry. but it’s too eary he says, you should eat it right before bed and then turn out the lights.

isn’t joonie a great name for an ipod, since it is a mini. oh well if you aren’t persian you’re not expected to understand that anyway.

the best song ever!
mamma was queen of the jungle
papa was king of the congo
something something banging on my bongo
every monkey like to be in my place instead of me
cause im the king of bongos baby
im the king of bongo bong
and it goes on and on and on…

beijos!
nissa, danesh, and armin
