When I grow up, I want to be a Chapman.

Laura has told me that I'm going down the same path she went, because, when she was my age she watched TV quite a bit but then read more and more everyday (and let me tell you, she's obsessed with reading), she started to write like I do (most of my influence is from Laura, Camilla and Jacob), I have the same interest in music, and I love to sing, dance, and act( which all of the Chapmans love to do :D). I love being a Chapman, and I want to stay one forever! Lucky me! Everyday I become more like my mom and dad who stared our love for theater and other flippin' awesome stuff.  

Quote of the day: Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm ... As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

I love Audrey!

Chapman Family 2000

I'm Ba-ack!

My heavens! How long it's been since my last post! Well, I was kicked off of Gmail because I wasn't 13 yet. So I got a Hotmail account and I sent all of my friends e-mails telling them I got a hotmail. THEN I got a new phone and I had to have a Gmail account for something, so I asked my parents " Please! Let me lie about my birth date just one year before my own! Please PPPPLLLLEEAAASSSSEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and they said ok. BUT! I didn't need to give my birthday so, MWAHAHA! So now I'm back! I'm happy again. :) :D

Christmas is Coming... But the turkey's getting fat.

I know that your probably thinking, 'Hey, it's not even Thanksgiving yet!' but I'm that kind of gal that in the middle of November it's time for the Christmas music, 'cause right now I'm listening to Frank Sinatra's Christmas album and am feeling very Christmasy, is that even a word? Oh, well. But people usually tell me, "Wait until after Thanksgiving to listen to Christmas music!" then I say, "TOO BAD! MWAHAHA!" Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, jingle all the way! Mmmmm... I just love Frank and his chorus girls! They make me feel so warm inside whenever they sing about the cold outside... Uh, don't think about that too much. :P But these AMAZINGLY GENIUS Christmas songs just make me feel so happy! :) Even though I hate the snow, I love it. Man, that must sound confusing... But I don't know any other way to put it. But when I think of Christmas, snow, and Christmas songs at the same time, it's the best feeling you can feel during these cold winter months! Christmas is something so beautiful and important, I couldn't imagine how people can live without it, it gives you another great reason to get together as a family and rejoice and laugh and cry and have fun together! You'll be hearing a lot more about Christmas from me in the next month! :D

Flipped

I just finished this magnificent book called Flipped! It's about a boy named Bryce Loski and a girl named Julianna "Juli" Baker. When Bryce moved to his new house it was love at first sight... For Juli. And the book starts out as Bryce's point of view and then the next chapter Is Juli's point of view of the same story that Bryce previously talked about and it does that the whole book! Well, the book follows them through the years from the 2nd grade to the 8th and talks about their relationship over these years! Well, anyway, I'm super DUPER excited to see the movie! AAHH!

Christina Perri... :)

I have always loved Christina Perri but my sister and I decided that she must have a really depressing life if all that stuff in her songs is true! (This is really hard typing, listening to music, and singing at the same time!) I mean she has a song called Lonely and another called Jar of Hearts! I love both! AAHHH!! They're such good songs! Hmmmm..... Writer's Block.

Pottermore

UUGGH! I'm am still waiting for my Pottermore invitation to arrive, but alas, It hasn't reached my dad's inbox!!! For those of you that are unaware of Pottermore, here is what it is. Pottermore is an amazing Harry Potter experience where you get sorted and all that fun stuff! You can make friends and get house points by looking around and fining hidden things! AAHH! I really want my invitation really super bad! :'( I'll keep trying.   

I started reading the Hunger Games and I think it's just a really great book!!! And I'm super excited for the movie to come out!!!

This is what I posted on that Buzz thing on Gmail and I think it might be the best I've written. So if you read this please give some feedback and see what you think.

My favorite movie is Finding Neverland because it talks about creativity and how to use it, it touches me because thing in this movie really did happen and how many troubles J. M. Barrie had but by escaping that by playing with a family that most of Peter Pan is based off of! And Finding Neverland and the book Peter Pan has showed me that there is a Neverland for each of us and a place to dream... I do believe in fairies... Not the other fairies like the Tooth Fairy, The Fairy God Mother and all those other fairies we learned about as younger children, but a fairy that shows us our hopes and dreams and friendship and love, the most important things in life.
And to end this post I say one of my favorite Peter Pan Quotes,

"Dreams do come true, if only we wish hard enough. You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it."
- J.M. Barrie (Peter Pan)

I'M GOING TO GIRL'S CAMP TODAY!!!! AAAHHH!!! SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!

So I was looking through some things I wrote when I was in 4th grade and I fond this sory I totally forgot about!! I hope you enjoy it!!!

The Golden Tale of Mine the Gold Mining Man

One fine day in Bannowa City a man named Mine decided to go mining. Nobody knew why he was named Mine, but it turns out his mother wanted him to be a miner. First he needed to get some supplies and a donkey and he was off. Once he got his camp set a thing in the sky caught his eye (now I’m not trying to rhyme here). It was a thing that looked like a cradle that was flying and the cradle said, “Use me for your mining work and I’m called a cradle rocker” and Mine said, “OTAY ROCKAY ”. Then out of nowhere his donkey said “Hey don’t trust this guy I mean cradle I mean cradle rocker. I’ve

seen this before”. “ SWEET APPLE PIE , you can talk too.?” said Mine.

“Are you jok’in, everything can talk,...Well unless your speechless of course.” Mine was so confused he decided to kick a rock and suddenly he heard another thing it sounded like a “OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW”. Mine jumped so high Superman could never take him down. “Well hot prairie dogs on rhye! Tell me why you kicked me”. The rock said, Mine was speechless “ I told you that you could be speechless.” said the donkey “You big dummy you told him that any thing could talk not anything could be speechless... Though it is true.” said the cradle rocker. “My heck can everything stop rock’in I mean talk’in”. said Mine, Everything started to go blurry, and a dude woke up and Robert (aka Mine) said I knew I shouldn't watch the Mining Channel/ Tall Tale channel.
