ERICA.

soooooooo, Callie and I have a friend. Her name is Erica. She is the sweetest thing ever, and the toughest girl I know. Even though she has been through alot she's always there for us. WE LOVE YOU ERICA!!! (even though you think that everyone should brush their lips) Oh, and yes you do have gorgeous eyes and legs. The best way to describe our friendship is by comparing the three of us to characters in Nemo. Callie is the little squid, Erica is the one the little sea horse, and I'm the other little fish i don't know what its called. Okay, so the reason why we compare ourselves to these is because of some lines they say in the movie. Callie says "one of my tentacles is smaller than the rest, but you can't really tell especially when I twirl like this." Erica's little character says "I'm H20 intolerant." Then... mine says "I'm obnoxious!" :/

Anyways we love you Erica. :)

P.S. I'll scratch your nose anytime.

the days!

So this week me and Beth have theater camp, and so far it has been interesting. Well theater isn't necessarily the interesting part.
Today there was a game we all had to play and we had to make another person laugh in 30 seconds, i think, well i had to make Bethany laugh first so i stuck out my tongue and made this sound that kind of goes like...
nnnnnnuaaaaggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
and she cracked.
When it was her turn to make me laugh she did this weird thing with her arm that we made up, that kind of looked like this...

except bend the hand down, flap it around, and put your elbow in your hand, make a bowl with your tongue, and you've pretty much got a picture of how she tried to make me laugh. I almost did, but i managed to hold it in! So when that didn't work she did the same thing and made the
nnnnuuaaagghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sound and then i laughed.

Back to life. Back to reality.

So, we are finally back. Family things and crazy stuff that happens in the summer consumed us. So, finally we got to hang out again last Friday. It had been way to long. Callie was nice and skipped a birthday party that we wanted to go to real bad just to hang out with me. :) I couldn't go. I had to work at Bible Camp and my mom didn't want me to go. Pretty much Bugga and I watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off and talked. It was nice. :)

But, Sunday I decided to freak Callie out. I texted her from my friends phone and said some crazy things Ha. I don't remember all of them. I just remember quoting "Salad Fingers" Which is a video on YouTube if you haven't watched it, "I highly recommend picking one up, It's so choice." -Ferris Bueller. Anyways, so I really freaked her out. Then, my friend drove me to her house, cause I really needed my sun glasses. (I went to Six Flags the next day) Her little sister let me in and I went into the room where she was and she was like "OH MY GOSH IT WAS YOU THE WHOLE TIME!!!" It was classic. :)

The Explanation Bugga Bugga's!!!

So here's the thing, i wanted to explain our little Bugga Bugga's coffee shop that's going on here.
You see me and Beth are going to someday own a very big coffee shop as you can see and it will be in Chicago. It might spread out to other places too but we're starting in Chicago. This amazing place has 3 floors WITH a balcony on the roof where you can also enjoy Bugga Bugga's original coffee, which is why it's so amazing!

Now you can probably understand the first floor, but you might be wondering what the second floor is all about. The second floor is all for kids! There's a "mug staircase" that climb up to the very top and then a "cream slide" that goes into this little mat thing...and i don't really know what that is. But then there's a pink and purple "mugg'n jump" bouncehouse. And those little dots are just for decoration...i forgot why i put them there.

And next we have the third floor! This floor is a very magical floor cause it grows flowers and has bubbles and has this "rainbow time warp," i don't really know Beth just really wanted it to be a time warp so that's what we made it :)

And then you see the balcony. If you want to go to the balcony you have to take the elavator outside, and i don't think i need to explain how an elevator works.
So there you have it just in case you were wondering about this weird looking coffee shop!

Bugga Bugga's Coffee Shop!!!!

SUMMER!!!

Last week of school YESSSSSSSSSSS.
Callie and I will start posting way more often after this week.
Both Callie and I have to do alot of tests and stuff and idunevenoe I'm just being lazy this week so I don't feel like writing.
I have to watch a forever long movie for music and write a song on it :/ I don't really know how that has to do with my music history class or how we will use that in life. Its whatever though.
I have to take lots of tests to so that should be fun anyway.

So, my weekend was kinda crazy. I went home with Callie on Friday and we had Grilled Cheese for lunch. Then, we watched an awesome "I Finally Found You" video. Other than that we just kinda layed around and did nothing. FUN FUN. Then, later that night Cal had to go to a birthday party so, I went over to Lyd's house. We pretty much just sat on her couch and got on the computer and never moved except to go upstairs and eat Cookies and Cream ice cream and strawberries and these AMAZING brownies her mom made. :D yay.

Saturday, we went to the mall and got these awesome erasers. We got one for Connor, Sofia, and Callie. Connor's was shaped like sushi and he really loved it haha. Sof got one shaped like a strawberry because she always talks about how much she wants them. Cal's was a Tomato. We also got Jonathan a key chain that had a little stick figure and said his name haha :) Then, Saturday night the Hot Tickets had a show.

Sunday I went to church and then to my mom's piano recital. My mom teaches Callie and her two sisters and then some of my other friends. They all did really well, my mom rocked her duet with the other teacher :) She made her fingers bleed. Crazy. I know. Then, my mom took me to see the new X men movie for the second time haha. Awesome.

Monday, I just sat at home and watched livelavalive videos all day. hahahah which is so sad.

Bug and Bey's Choir Concert!

We were the last ones to perform, so i'll start out by saying what was going on before we went on stage. First of all it was really crowded so they had to seat people outside of the sanctuary, which was all of the Linebargers, Mezgers, and the rest of the people in choir.
Right when Seth walked in Beth started going crazy because she loves Seth. And when she went up to Seth to say "hi" he said hi in a dreamy/ tired/ i have to say hi cause someone said hi to me voice. Then we sat back there for a little while...Oh!!! and Lydia and Bethany gave me this really weird and creepy look...but anyways then it was finally our turn to go on. So we got on stage and sang Cantate Deo, Ain'a that good news, blue skies, gentle alleluhiah, America, with love medely by motown ( by the girls) , my girl (by the guys), and the Lord Bless you and keep you.
I thought that we did a very good job! I would also like to mention that Bethany winked at the end of one of our songs to Sadie. It was a long day, but a great night! :)

Bethany's Creepy Story

Before I start I wanted to say that I'm normally not this weird or creepy. I couldn't sleep one night and this came into my head, and I had to write it down to get it out of my head before I could sleep.

I woke startled. "It's only the house shifting again," I reassured myself softly.

Strange occurrences had been taking place quite frequently. For example, just the day before I had noticed one of the few steak knives I owned missing. Also, things that I had put away would appear half way across the house in a matter of minutes. What had me worried the most were the disturbances at night. Sounds of shuffling feet and the rustle of cloth against living flesh.

"Perhaps my imagination is getting the best of me," I would say.

I had resigned to the conclusion that it was merely the foundation of my house cracking. Although, tonight the sounds had grown louder and more prominent. I decided to investigate, only to confirm my assumptions of course.

I rose up out of bed sleepily, and slipped on my ratty robe and worn slippers. I am not for certain why I did this. There was no other living in the house besides myself, or so I thought.

I recalled the last audible movement I had heard. The path from the kitchen into the confines of my linen closet. I started toward my destination, my heart pumping, though, what was I to be afraid of? I slowed when I heard the faint noise of breathing, inhaling then exhaling. Yet, my curiosity won over my better judgement. I reached for the knob of the door,but as my fingers came in contact with it the door swung open.

There was the culprit; the origin of every extraordinary thing that had happened holding my missing knife in one hand. I let out a screech as he plunged it inside me and pulled it back out. He repeated this process in several different areas of my body, being careful not to puncture vital organs. In this way he created an entertaining show for himself; a more gradual, agonizing death for me.

As he performed his horrific deed he watched my dark, red blood seep through the clothes hanging limp from my body, which was now growing colder. He enjoyed every last screech and wail that escaped my mouth. All the while, paying the closest attention to the light slipping out from underneath my once incandescent eyes.

Love, Beyhey

P.S. Again don't get freaked out. I'm really not a depressing person.

:)

Storytime with Beyhey.

So, as my first act of business I would like to acknowledge that I am so proud of Callie for writing that last post in orange!!! Callie has been afraid of the color orange ever since we watched Unbreakable because of ONE SCENE that the guy wore orange in. I am so happy that she's facing her fears :)

Anyways, this week is going to be really insane. I have a research paper due Friday, and we have a choir concert on Thursday. Personally I don't know which one I'm more afraid of. On the bright side there is only two weeks left of school. YAY!

This morning I woke up and I COULD NOT find my ipod anywhere, and i kinda freaked out. Turns out Cooper wanted to listen to music in the playroom, and when he woke up from his nap he took me in there and showed me where it was. In a way I'm glad I found it, and then I also wanted it to be lost forever and ever so that I could get an ipod touch. :p Wow, I sound so spoiled :/

I'm gonna add a quote from Thursday that Callie left out in her last post...

Butch: " I've always wanted a golf cart!"

Bugga: "No you haven't!"

Butch: " How would you know its my secret desire!!!"

... so now because of this conversation we have decided that when we grow up I will own a turquoise golf cart and Callie will have a yellow one. :) The picture is Callie's yellow golf cart. Since my turquoise one will be custom made I couldn't possibly find a picture of it. Oh and make sure you click on the picture. It will take you to an amazing website where I got the picture of Callie's future golf cart. They have some crazy awesome carts on there.

Bugga's Thursdays with Beyhey! ( Chapter 1)

So every Thursday is pretty interesting because i go home with Bethany after choir. Like this Thursday after Choir me and Bey decided we wanted cheeseburgers so we told her dad and he was like k! so we went to some restaurant (forgot the name of it) and we got this amazing root beer and cheeseburgers. And then when me and Bethany got bored sitting there, we decided to start lip reading (i think thats what you call it.) And then her dad got really confused and had no idea what we were saying and then somehow it turned into me saying i saw dead people in the closet or something, you know its Bethany.

So after that was all done, we got back into the car to go home. Well, while we were in the car i started randomly singing creep and then Beth sang with me cuz she's such a good friend :) and her dad decided to play a game and change the song we were singing...so he pretended to push a button on the radio and so we had to change the song. so we started singing paper planes, i think, and then he changed it again. We couldn't think of any song so Bethany just broke out into yellow and i started laughing. And that went on till we got home to her house, then we took a walk, (just mentioning now that me and Beth always take walks on thursadys.) So the first weird thing that happened on this particular walk was that out of no where, this huge dog starts barking and me and Bethany both screamed our heads off!!!

Then I ran into a tree and Bethany took a picture of this thing that she thought was from space or something. After that Bethany wanted to lay down in the street, so she did and she got scared cuz she said this car was coming but i didnt even see a car till 5 minutes later. But anyways then we saw a creepy guy so we decided to go back to her house and then i got something stuck in my foot. Then we finally got home....and im sure a lot of other things happened after that too but those were the main parts of that Thursday i remember! :D

Callie's discription of Bethany

Hello Hello!
Since Bethany just wrote something about me i will write about her now!
First of all Bethany is the greatest! She knows how to cheer me up, talk to me about things, and be hyper with me on Thursdays!

She is a very amusing and talented person. She likes to act, sing, dance, play the piano, and text (a lot.) Some of the things me and Bethany like to do together is watch movies, sing horribly at most songs together, eat oreos, talk all about Lakewood and many other things!
I also have to mention that Bethany is a very attractive person. She's beautiful and hilarious and has a very good taste in everything!

Bethany mentioned that i had very many nicknames, well she does too. Some of them are Beyhey, Beth, Dida, Betho, Butch and a bunch of others.

There is a lot more i want to say about her but i will say them in other posts. Bethany is amazing and i would not have chosen any other best friend than her! :)

Bethany's discription of Callie

This blog belongs to Bethany and Callie. We have been best friends for about two years, but it feels like so much longer. We are both fourteen, but Callie is in the eighth grade and I am in the ninth.

Callie and I are pretty much inseparable. For example, this year I switched schools and a couple months later Callie switched too. The school she was at just didn't feel right with out me, I guess. :p

I suppose I should explain the name of this blog. My last name is Burnside and Callie's is Linebarger. I call Callie Burger sometimes so originally it was going to be burning burgers, but it wasn't available. Burning Bargers will do fine too though.

I will tell you about Callie now. Callie is a very interesting character. She is a very happy, positive person. She gets along with nearly anyone. She has an awesome family. Callie's hobbies include: singing, playing piano, decorating her room, eating zebra cakes, listening to music with Bethany, taking walks with Bethany, making videos and taking pictures with Bethany, and pretty much anything else she can do with me.

I would also like to add that I am so thankful for Callie's friendship, and I could not live without her. She is the most gorgeous, most amazing person I know. She is courageous and self confident, and I've always secretly wished that I was her. I love her so much. :)

We have created lots of nicknames for each other also. Some nicknames of Callie's are: Bugga, Cal, Barger, De Burger, Callie o Mallie, Callie Wallie, and I'm sure there is more I just cannot think right now.

Well, that pretty much covers everything that I CAN think of at the moment.
