I know I am the first on to say it but...

I am so tired of TV! I bet I am the first kid on earth to say that. I get up and Anna or Gracie has already put on a movie or Little House. So, I sit down and watch it with them. During the movie I get starving and try to ignore it. When the movie is over I get up and get toast. Today I microwaved the french toast sticks mom bought yesterday. Then we put on another movie while we eat our breakfast. If we watched a movie first then we watch Little House the rest of the time. About when we are almost done with the first Little House mom gets home from the gym and joins in the watching. TV is such a waste of time. It makes you feel sick and makes the world seem even more boring then it was before you turned it on. Not to mention make you feel useless and ugly. Everyone on TV looks so beautiful because of the makeup and everything. We all know that but still feel ugly because they look so pretty. And the show obviously has to be exciting so they write an exciting funny story that never gets boring. It makes life feels so boring. There are no storms or weddings or ball games or thieves in town so everyone stays in the one place that is being robbed to catch them! The people of Walnut Grove are always together and they are never bored. They don't have electricity so they don't laze around like we do. They get up and do something. I remember when mom used to have all day cook days we would watch TV all day long. At the end of the day I remember the worst headaches.

There are things I have gotten tired of that I thought I could never get tired of. TV and restaurants. When we lived in Ammon we did not have a dishwasher so mom took us out to eat a lot. I got so tired of it. Now she just buys us frozen food from Sam's for dinner. I feel so bad for when mom cooked all those homemade meals and I wouldn't eat them because I didn't LIKE it. At least I HAD it. I know this is bad to say. Mom is a great mom and I don't know if I would do any better than she is if I were the mom, but I can't help it. I guess I will go out and read the scriptures now. They will help me feel better. I love you all! And Grandma if you are reading this you need to post pictures of those plants that are testing the microwave. Love you!

Youth Conference

The 9th, 10th, and 11th I went to Youth Conference. It started Thursday evening when we went to do baptisms for the dead at the temple. Sadly I didn't really feel the spirit. Everyone was noisy and I was nervous. I did learn about what I need to do next time though. So, it was a good experience. After we went back to the church and got Youth Conference T-shirts. On the back it says "5th Ward Youth Conference 2010" and on the front there are a lot of different colored blocks that say "Be strong" on them in different languages. There is one that has it in English, too.
The next day we met at the church at 8:00 a.m. for a pancake breakfast. We all wore the T-shirts. We each (Beehives, Mia Maids, Lorels, Deacons, teachers) gave a presentatian. The beehives did one on friendship. We learned about media, dating, families, and more. We had lunch then cooked, and served a meal to the men at the Men's Homeless shelter in IF (Idaho Falls). It was fun. Then we went to the Visitors Center at the temple and saw a Joseph Smith movie. We had a testimony meeting and we all bore our testimonies, including me.
The next day we met at the church at 9:00 a.m. for a french toast breakfast. Then we had a "Fear Factor". It was gross. There was one where two blind folded people stood single file at a table. There was bread, jam, and peanut butter on the table. The person behind put their hands under the front person's arms and made a sandwich and fed it to the front person. It sounds okay but they crammed those sandwhiches in so fast.
There was one where they had to taste 14 jelly beans and guess what they are. There was vomit, bugars, marshmallow, dog food, skunk spray, baby wipes, pencil shavings, toothpaste, buttered popcorn, moldy cheese, centipede, and more that I can't remember. I am not kidding. They were gross.
Another when they had to bob for two plastic snakes out of a bucket of ice water.
Another where they rolled a dice to see what to put in their drink. There was clam juice, buttermilk and I think something like salsa.
There were others when they had to eat marshmallows and mustard, and a mint and sardines and more.
After that we went bowling. It was so fun. It was my first time.
I hope this is satisfying for everyone. I love you all.

Lisel A. Slie

This is weird. I can't center my post and I can't change it. Anyway, I posted on Sign it Weekly and noticed it says my name, real name at the bottom of the post. So we went to change it and in order to do that my name has to be Lisel on both blogs. So when I post on here and it says "This post was posted by Lisel A. Slie at blah blah blah" it is still me. I am going to ask Danielle if she knows how to make it so it still says I am "Aliese the Writer" on this blog, but not on that one. I would write more, but I have to get ready for church and mom wants the computer so I have to go. I will probably post later. Love you all!

Big news!

Diane and my dad are getting married! I just had to blurt it out and it is not a joke. He just told us at dinner. They are getting married in August. We will move down there and Diane is going to decorate our rooms. She is so excited to have some girls in the house. She has four boys. I am so excited. Before the wedding Diane's sister is going to do our hair all fancy. They all ready bought the dresses and Diane says they are gorgeous. We just got off the phone with her. This is so sudden. Dad wouldn't tell us they were dating and all of a sudden they are getting married! I guess we all sorta new it would happen.

Dad said we have to move there because if they moved here they would have to leave everything. We have already moved so we wouldn't really be moving. They have school, church and friends there. And we aren't really moving. We live with mom most of the time so no matter what we will not have to move totally. I better go! I am so excited I can barely type. I am making so many mistakes!

Bye!

So, I am now typing without a cursor and it really bugs me. I hate it when this happens, but so far I am doing good.

So, you have all waited for the pictures and here they are. I absolutely love my new camera. I take so many pictures and then I delete half of them. This one mom took. We went to the bay front and got ice cream. We also went to see the seals, maybe later I can put the video I took of them on. They were so loud. I'm surprised we can still hear. They make enough noise to make someone deaf. We saw Grandma's friend Melissa on the job over the construction work. We told her to keep Saturday from 11 to 1 open. Later we made her an invitation for a tea party. It was so fun. Her name was Millicent and she was a street doctor. She took car of all the sick streets. Oh! My cursor is back. Yay! Anyway, the tea party was fun.

Nonnie and Popi came over yesterday afternoon. They had dinner with us and we had fun. Then (since there aren't any more places for visiters to sleep) they left and slept at a nearby motel. Today we met at the aquarium and saw the new "Swamp" exibit. We saw a snake that is big enough to eat a deer. Yes, a deer. It was as wide as my head. And they think it might be pregnent. Than it would have the babies in the aquarium! We also saw huge turtles and some alligators. Well, mom is pressuring me to get off so I should go.

Oh! I have my new blog! signitweekly1.blogspot.com It is not invite only so you can just get on it. I even have a pen name. Go see it!
