Hippo say 'don't go hungry.'

Hello, hello, Hellllooo! :) 

I am chilling out here at my round table drinking some coffee and about to eat some hippo snacks.  Hippo snacks are this sorta new thing in India.  They taste like croutons and they have the most strangest flavors.  All of my friends have tried them and said they taste weird...BUT ITS A LIE!  They taste awesome...I've had only one falvor so far - Italian Pizza.


Whoops, it's upside-down.  Ohwell, that's your problem.  You can solve this problem by either turning your computer upsidedown or doing a hand stand.  Yeah...sorry guys. 

 I would be eating them right now, but I don't want to get crumbs all over the keyboard.  The bag calls them "baked munchies."  Hahahhaa.  The best part about these munchies is reading the back.  On the bag there is a hippo and on the back he tells you why you need to eat these baked munchies.
This is what it says...

"Hello,
me hippo.
Hippo makes lots of hippo delicious baked munchies for eveyrone.

Hippo feel bad you work, work, work
and not eat on time.  HIppo like you
keep Hippo munchies handy.

Look hippo care for you.  Hippo say,
'don't go hungry.'

Hippo think hungry peopel less
happy.  Hungry people more fight.

HIppo believe world will be better place if nobody hungry.
So, Hippo try."

It's hilarious.  Everytime I buy a bag of hippo snacks I always read the back (outloud).  It is so funny.  I have a small pack right now, but with a big pack it's even more hilarious.  more hilarious is not correct grammar, but I will still use it in this case.  The hippo talks about how since you have a big pack you should share and make everyone happy.  Erin Tabor once saw a truck that was talking about how India no have naitonal snack so hippo give you this.  She texted me what it said and I was like YES!  GO hippo. all the way.  I have yet to see a hippo truck, but I can't wait.  Anyways...hippo munchies are the greatest...so stop reading my blog...get off your bottom...and go outside and go buy some hippo snacks...

Crystal Bowersox

So yeah...I don't really watch Idol.  You've probably read that in some of my earlier posts, but I like Crystal.  She's the girl with the awesome dreads and has the kid.  Yeah, she is a beast.  she also plays the guitar and the hamaronica.  and she even has the name of her kid TATTOOED on her.  i'm not sure where, but STILL.  I think if I ever have a kid i'll tattoo his name on me.  Actually I dont think I will that would be a little weird.

Right now this other girl is singing andd shes doing really bad.  poor person. she'll probably lose.  ohwell.  That's life right?  hahahaha.

Hey!  Today was youth.  I led games.  It went really well.  I did this strange game where people ran everywhere pulling other people up from their sitting position.  It's a kinda odd game, but it went well and it was fun.

dehradun...think i spelled that right..ha

Hello friends.  I am sitting at coffee bean sending in emails for school and stuff.  Yes, we still do not have internet.  It's pretty sad.  My computer crashed recently, so it's been quite lame for school.  I've had to move all my school over to other computers and work on there.  So, it has been quite difficult for me.  I am surviving though.

Last week we were in Dehradun.  Our parents were there, speaking at conferences and Connor and I were in some kid's camp there.  It was pretty good.  It was nice, because the weather was cooler, because we were in the mountains.  The nights were cold the days weren't as hot as they are in Delhi, so quite enjoyable!  There were volunteers helping the kids from Hong Kong.  They were pretty awesome.  Unfortunately their English was not the greatest, but that made it all the more funnier!  hahaha.  It was pretty great, because whenever they said "play" it sounded a lot like "pray".  So, when they said it we were like all bowing our heads and stuff...then it's like ohhhh...This is awkword.  you said play....not pray.  Why would you say pray anyways?  Hahaha.  So, yes it was really funny.  I enjoyed it a lot actually.

A Holi Eagle that Moved

Hi, guys! A lot has happened recently since my last post. LIKE A LOT. Hahaa. We moved to a new house. So, that was a pretty crazy time. The moving killed my school, so now I’m a bit behind, but that’s okay. We didn’t move far. We live very close to our old house and we also brought our round dining room table. So no worries.

Our new house doesn’t have internet yet, so we have to go to our old house, which has internet, if we want to download school things, check mail, or go on facebook. Unfortunately Holi(Don't have a clue what I'm talking about?  Click here) has come, which has made it harder to go to our old house. Every time we need to download something we have to walk by a lot of houses which may have people on their roofs throwing colored balloons at you. Another problem we have is that when we moved we left a lot of our old gross shirts behind, so when we go out of the house we are like, “Where’s a dirty shirt I can wear? AHHHHHH!”

I haven’t been out of the house much. I mainly just stay inside and cower in a corner, but today I needed to go out. I am at my old house now, because I need to download Adobe for school and also some classes. And today is Holi, so that is quite unfortunate. Luckily I left in the morning, so there wasn’t anybody out yet. Things will definitely start to heat up as the day goes on though.

Also, my Eagle Ceremony is on Wednesday! WEDNESDAY! That is pretty close by. I have officially become an Eagle Scout, if you didn’t know already…So yeah, that will be a pretty big event. A lot of people are coming and I have to stand up in front of them dressed up and stuff. Hahahaha. There will definlty be pictures I’m guessing.

Anyways, that’s it guys!
Cheers,
Lonestar
