Firsts!

            Obviously, I am new to blogging! By the way, someone should come help me make it all cutesy like! So what I initially wanted to start a blog for was to write funny things that happen throughout the day. And let me tell you, some really funny things happen in my family!! So I will be posting things that happen and things people say. I am excited and hope it is enjoyable!

So as this is my first post ever, I thought it would be appropriate to start out with some of my funny firsts and explain them! I hope you get a laugh out of this!

             So I think I shall start out with my first tooth that I ever lost!! So picture this, if you will, I am about four or five years old at home with my older sister (7 years old at the time) while my parents are out somewhere. Now this was back in the 90's when stretchy pants were awesome! So Tatiana (my sister) and I were in our front room just messing around. Somehow she pulled my pants off (the stretchy ones I was talking about) and I felt revenge was in order. But, for some reason I decided to try pulling her pants off with my teeth! (I was a crazy little kid, not very smart in the head I guess) So, I am pulling on her pants with my teeth and somehow her toes got in my mouth and her big toe knocked out my tooth! I was so excited, mind you, that I picked up my tooth and ran out into my cul-de-sac (without any pants on, thankfully my shirt was huge) yelling I LOST MY TOOTH! I am still not exactly sure how her toe knocked my tooth out, but it's no lie!

Now, another first would have to be the first poem that I wrote and actually remember! When I was in second grade my class was having a poetry unit. We were learning all these different types of poems and how they are written, like limericks and haikus, etc. So I sat next to this kid that I did not like very much at all. Mind you, he was popular and just mean because he was jealous of me, duh. His name was Parker (Almeida for those of you who may know him, it will be funnier if you can be sure who it is. At least I think so.) So in class we were talking about limericks and our teacher taught us how their rhyme scheme went and we were all supposed to write one to see if we got it. So I wrote this:

There once was a boy named Parker,

who had a purple marker,

it fell on the floor,

so he got one more,

but it was a little darker.

I thought I was really clever, because I mean, what boy in their right mind liked purple when they were 7? So I thought it was soooo funny. When Parker saw it, he told the teacher. Now our teacher walked over and read my limerick. I thought I was going to get in trouble, but instead she told me how good it was and asked me to read it in front of the class. Later my parents read it and loved it, and I have had it memorized ever since.

Well I hope you have thoroughly enjoyed this, and I will post again soon, hopefully. If you think it's funny let me know, so I can gain some confidence! Also, I would love to hear some of your funny firsts!
