My choir is doing this song. In case you're wondering what the words mean, they don't actually mean anything. They mean whatever you want them to.

Conversations with Characters (Sleepover edition!)
Talia: I LOVE sleepovers!
Nicki T.: Yeah, they're not too bad. Hey, where's Zora?
Zora: Boo!
Nicki T.: Ah! Don't startle me like that! What do you guys want to do?
Selenda (winks at Nicki T.): Tell ghost stories?
Talia: Sure.
Zora: So long as you don't include too many cliches. Ghost stories are much too cliche to be scary. *Yawns* Pass the popcorn, please.
Nicki T.: Okay, Selenda. Go ahead. Scare Zora badly.
Selenda: Once, there was a girl named Nicki. She loved to pick on her characters. One night, she was camping with her friend Talia. *winks at Talia* They were just pitching the tent when they heard a rustling sound...
(Goes on to tell a long creepy story. Zora's eyes slowly grow wider.)
Selenda: And Nicki and Talia were never seen again.
Nicki T.: We're right here.
Zora: AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
Selenda: I thought ghost stories were too cliche to be scary.
Zora: You did that on purpose.
Nicki T.: Maybe I did. Well, of COURSE I did. Come on, who wants to watch something?
Zora: What do you have?
Nicki T.: Well... we just got the Princess Bride.
Zora: You know how I am about those kinds of romances.
Nicki T.: Yes, I know.
Selenda: It reminds me a little of... well, you know.
Nicki T.: Oh. Have you seen Across the Second Dimension yet?
Talia: Phineas and Ferb! They're so cute!!!! MUST WATCH!!!!
Selenda: Do you have anything else?
Zora: I have to side with Selenda here.
Nicki T.: Yes, I have other movies. Do any of you like Prince Caspian?
Zora: Oh, yeah.
Selenda: Yes.
Nicki T.: I'll go get it.
(Nicki T. puts it into the DVD player.)
Nicki T.: Who likes gummy worms??
Nicki T.: Yeah, they're not too bad. Hey, where's Zora?

HAHAHAHA!!!
For those of you who've seen Rebecca Black's Friday, here's a parody.
Just for future refrence, I don't hate Rebecca Black's song. I might not like it, but I will refrain from mocking it. I heard she had to change schools because everyone was making fun of her.
