all together
Bonjour!
2'4 is so much cooler when spelled with an apostrophe.
Anyway. Hello, this is Alyssa. O: YES, I bet you didn't see that one coming.
First off, I'd like to make an announcement:
My thumbdrive is gone. I HAVE LOST MY THUMBDRIVE. If anyone sees it, please return it to me. I told my mother the unfortunate news and she got really upset so it spread via the 'and-they-told-two-friends' network and now the whole house (10 PEOPLE!) is mourning the loss of my thumbdrive. I guess I should describe it... picture a thumb, just white with a blue nail and a black neck strap attached. Should you find it and return it to me, we will cast your statue in gold right smack in the middle of our living room. Or, if you want that park statue aura, we can cast it in the garden so pigeons can poop on your head and my dog can piss on your shoes. Well, crows. We don't get pigeons. Lovely, ey?
That said, let's move on to a more relevant topic. The Chinese Culture test is on Monday. Good luck, everyone. You can do it! Yes, ignore the sarcasm! Has anyone seen the 'Bob the Builder' title sequence? The song goes a little something like this:
Bob the Builder
Can we fix it?
Bob the Builder
Yes, we can!
Scoop, Muck and Dizzy and Roley too
Lofty and Wendy join the crew
Pilchard and Bird, Travis and Spud
Playing together like good friends should
Bob the Builder
Can we fix it?
Bob the Builder
Yes, we can!
Time to get busy, such a lot to do
Building and fixing till it's good as new
Bob and the gang have so much FUN
Working together, they get the job done
Notice the 'FUN'. Yes, people, that is SARCASM. I bet none of you ever sensed it. You are all in denial now, I can feel it.
"NOOO! Bob can't be sarcastic! It's like lying to little kids! Bob wouldn't do that!"
Because Bob der Baumeister (did I spell that right, Lu Ping?) was your childhood idol, ey? Don't lie. Bob the Builder was everyone's childhood idol... or childhood crush. If you don't believe me, ask around, see how many girls wanted Wendy to get run over by Roley back in the day. For guys, there's an equivalent. My brother Luke, we asked him if he liked Bob the Builder and he went, "NO!" Then we asked who he did like and without missing a beat, he answered, "I like Wendy!" He's two. I hope I haven't scarred your perfect picture of Bob, the beautiful, friendly, responsible Builder. He's a grown man singing to a bunch of toothless toddlers, you can't expect him to be genuinely enthusiastic, can you? Please don't rip his poster off your wall. Bob thrives on his fangirls.

Watch it. And look out for the sarcasm. He gives a little scoff at that part too. You can't deny it. Bob's putting on a fake front for the tots.
Good luck studying for the Chinese Culture test/ EOYs.
Hope you all have so much FUN.
So that's it for my debut post. I hope I haven't bored you all to tears.
Adiós!
Alyssa
