Futuristic Plane Rides, Tater Tots, and Coach purses

Hello blog readers. How are you today? I'm alright. Tomorrow is Thursday, which would normally be depressing but (drumroll, please) I don't have school on Friday, so tomorrow is my Friday. Thank god tomorrow is Thursday! That would be TGIT. Hahaha. Although this weekend will be awful because of all the tests and quizzes I have next week. So I am not necessarily looking forward to the weekend anyway.

I was going to write a blog post like 10 or 12 minutes ago but my mom summoned me to the computer. Apparently she's going on a trip to L.A. to visit one of her good friends and she isn't taking me along. Thanks mom, thanks. I'll just get tan under this sun lamp on my desk. Screw the actual sun. Okay, that was a lie. I don't think I own a sun lamp and it definitely wouldn't be on my desk. Yeah, so she didn't know why the total bill of the plane ticket she was trying to buy was four times more than she thought it would be. Usually I can solve her easy computer problems. This is an average situation:

Mom: Aviva, why is this Obama youtube video so quiet?
Aviva: Is the sound on?
Mom: Oh Aviva, you are such a computer genius.
Aviva: I know Mom, I know.

But apparently the website was malfunctioning or something because I could not seem to figure out why the bill was so high. She's probably talking to some guy from Virgin Airlines right now.

Have you guys ever been on a Virgin airlines flight? Let me just say that it was probably the coolest plane trip I have ever been on. Sometime last year I went to visit my cousin, Rachael, in San Francisco and I went on a Virgin airlines flight. It. was. so. amazing. First of all, the flight attendants weren't the stereotypical bitchy, slutty (at times), rude flight attendants that I always had looked forward to (that was intended to be sarcastic guys). They were hip, cool, sweet, and hilarious. And instead of the boring, sometimes creepy in-flight safety video, there was a cartoon with many jokes that I actually found amusing. I may have even laughed out loud. What a surprise! The coolest part in my opinion was each passenger had a personal screen in front of them in which they could:

a) order food with their credit cards to eat during the flight
b) watch free tv shows
c) watch movies (unfortunately they were a bit expensive)
d) play games
e) shop online
f) and the coolest feature in my opinion: you could TEXT any passenger locating them by seat number. How futuristic is that??

So the moral of that little tale is, if you ever have the option, I highly reccomend using Virgin Airlines if you need to get somewhere by plane. Do it. You'll enjoy it, I promise.

So. . . Let's see. . . Anything else to report?

I got caught up on Gossip Girl last night and Hilary Duff and Tyra Banks guest starred. Tyra--well, I'll be blunt here, she can't act to save her life. But Hilary was her adorable, always the same cute self. And she's still really pretty. Ughh. Isn't it easy to resent beautiful people? Oh it is. It is.

I just ate some tater tots (with ketchup!!) and they were delicious. Do you remember Napolean Dynamite? Tater tots and that movie are related because I remember tater tots were a huge theme in that film. That is such a weird movie, my friends. So weird. I was apparently obsessed with that movie in middle school because everyone else liked it so much. I don't think I ever understood the actual humor. I was definitely a follower.

If you're still in middle school. First of all, I'm sorry. That hell hole will soon be over. Well high school is another hell hole, but I think it's a bit more bearable hell hole. At least socially. Second of all, don't be a follower. Be your own person and don't buy things just because you think they're cool. For example, I thought every girl had a Coach purse in seventh grade and I convinced myself that I would be a happier, more popular person if I, too, had in my possession a Coach purse. I received one for my Bat Mitzvah and let me say that they are just purses with large C's on them. No biggie. I was still the same person. My life was the same.

So anyway, I was watching that movie recently on tv and it was majorly depressing and not very funny or entertaining at all. In sixth grade, I practically wore a "Vote for Pedro" shirt everyday. I even wore it to one of the middle school dances. I was such a cool kid. . . And oh so fashionable.

Well I better go stop procrastinating. I'm really starting to like this blogging thing. It's quite fun. Maybe I'll get some more followers eventually? God, I feel like I'm beginning to sound like Voldemort. Followers sound like Death Eaters to me. Oh Harry Potter, will you marry me?

Anyway!

Good afternoon everyone. Ta. Ta.

You know it's a palindrome kind of world.
