Dear Diary,

Today I began my rule of the дом! The reason for it is that my parents have skipped town and are vacation at (the place next to and with a full view of) the only 7-star hotal in the world, in Dubai. So I woke up to the find the water cooler had freaked out in the night and there was water all over the kitchen floor! After 6 towels, and hanging 2 rugs out to dry, It finally stopped leaking (or maybe it was just because the jug was empty). Thank you, evaporation. Ben was gone from abotu 4pm on because he was an "art carrier" at some ritzy auction. He said he held a painting that went for $33,000. Tommy had a baseball game, so being the supportive sister that I am, I took a book and watched. He was upset that the coach wouldn't let him pitch, but he had a couple great hits that got men home. He fell asleep very early, so I just did homework, and watched TV (I know, I was that bored/didn't want to do homework that much), and took Xiao Mei on a couple of walks.

I've got some serious life decisions I'm working through right now and have spent more time than I probably should have contemplating and hypothesizing about the.

Today I also learned how to knit an iPod case! I found this great website called VideoJug that teaches you "How to" do all sort of great, random, and possibly things in life. I might have also spent too much time on it today, but my family will love me when I make them the worlds greatest donuts.

And last but not least, I did Historic Christian Belief homework. I understand the way A Faith for All Seasons was written, so it's not too bad. I have a paper due Monday and I'm not really sure how to do it, but there's always tomorrow for that.

Goood night!
