Judy Garland dances funny.

But she doesn't care.
We watched "In the Good Ol' Summertime" last night.
Little Liza Minelli made her bigscreen debut at the end of the movie.
So cute.
Ugh, stupid Mr. Oberkugen. What a jerk.
He and Nellie had been "courting" for like 20 years.
20 YEARS!!!
That's ridiculous. They were both old, and he hadn't proposed yet!!!
So he's essentially been leading her on all this time.
She decides he's being an unfair jerk (which he is) about many things, so casually mentions that she has a date for that evening.
With another man.
And he gets all mad and jealous and decides to keep EVERYONE after work because his woman is acting up.
Even though she's not his. I mean, being a guy and all, and it being the 1930's, you would think he'd know that he was supposed to initiate some kind of official "relationship".
So he pouts about it for hours and hours, until she comes in, and he's all, "I'm not worthy of you. I obviously don't deserve you. I was just hoping that one day you'd love me," and she has to stroke his ego (among other things) in order to get him to send his employees home and convince him to take part in a committed relationship.
Ugh. Just so stupid.
Sorry. It just really bugged me.
Woo, so I just failed the science WASL.
Good thing I don't need it to graduate.

Doc, there's a hole where something was

Butterfly bandage, but don't worry....
Lol. Tyler and I were tuning timpanis in 6th period.
While watching yet another History Channel movie on the Black Death.
Yeah, it was icky.
And a lot more devastating than I ever knew.
And really sad. People abandoned their sick family members and whole families were left to die in their own homes.
And it was a really painful way to die.
But I don't see why Leonard Nimoy had to tell us this.
And why Mr. Hurd had to explain what the movie was about and tell us EVERYTHING that was going to happen.
You obviously know all this stuff. Why are we watching a 45-minute movie if you're just going to condense it into a 10 minute lecture anyway?
Rosey is so cool. He was in the paper this morning.
And "St. Francis and the Sow" is his favorite poem, too.
We were interpreting "Lost" by David Wagoner, and Amanda was being really insightful and understood the entire thing.
We were in awe. She decoded everything to the very last detail.
"The Legend" is so sad. He wasn't just a man on the street! It reminded me of the homeless people in Seattle.
Along with "Miss Rosie".
Poetry is so cool. Only we have to write some of our own soon.
And there's a book report due Friday.
And we have to measure the roots of our radish plants.
And we have a WASL vocab quiz tomorrow.
So the flash cards are due.
And Mr. Macaras expects us to do that massive math packet.
CRAP.

You Are a Cougar

You have more strength than most people, and with it, the ability to inflict a lot of harm. Your power gives you confidence, and you find leading others to be easy. You believe that you need to the best, and you are very driven to excel. Most people immediately admire you, but some people feel very envious of your abilities.

What Big Cat Are You?

WSU, here I come!

Flu-like syptoms may occur.

February decided to screw with us and dump a load of snow on the ground, yet, somehow, our school was the ONLY one not to have a 2 hours late.
But that doesn't really matter seeing as I didn't go to school today.
Woohoo, the flu has struck!!
And it sucks.
But I didn't throw up this time, which was a plus.
Not even chicken and milkshakes.
And it gave me time to catch up on "All My Children".
It's pretty sad, because I haven't watched it in months, but I caught on pretty fast.
Except Babe is dead? And I've been watching this soap since seventh grade, and David and Krystal were together once before, and now they're together again.
Bianca has finally resurfaced.
Aidan and Greenlee are over, and Greenlee is marrying Ryan - again.
Annie is going crazy because she apparently killed her brother and is obsessed with Ryan, but Ryan is totally over her because he's a jerk.
Seriously, I never liked Ryan. He was always sort of a player.
Susan Lucci needs to hurry up and die already.
Valentine's Day is coming up, and I'm sort of pumped. Sure, I won't be getting flowers from "my special someone", but there's chocolate and heart-shaped pizzas from Papa Murphy's!
Ugh, a bunch of my friends are making a big deal about how it's not Valentine's Day, it's "Singles Awareness Day", and Valentine's Day is just a stupid holiday that's not real and love isn't real and all that.
Well...yeah. Valentine's Day kind of sucks a little bit if you're single.
But it's not that big a deal. It's just high school.
And, for reals, the word "relationship" is kind of making me sick.
Several couples I know broke up and it ended badly for all of them. But now they're all complaining about how this love obviously wasn't real and the relationship was so hard and why can't guys be real, bla bla bla.
Ugh. It's HIGH SCHOOL. Of COURSE this didn't work out.
Yet because they've gone through this "tough time" and have more "experience", they're the mature ones.
And it's annoying.

Some things are disgusting, but they have to be done

Like hocking up giant yellow lugies.
Gross? Maybe.
Satisfying? You betcha.
Yeah, I'm sick.
So I missed one of 4 half days.
Dang it.
1 and a half stars! Ha! Stephenie Meyer, I laugh at thee.
So I had a very interesting night last night:
Alexis called at about 5:00 and asked if I needed a ride.
She'd asked me if I was "going tonight" in advisory and I assumed she had meant the Jazz Night.
Apparently SHE'D been referring to Youth Group.
So she picks me up and we're halfway to the church when I realize we're NOT headed to the high school.
Yeah, it took me that long.
So her mom dropped Alexis off at youth group and then drove me to the high school.
And I sat alone.
The concert wasn't bad, though. The Navy band played, and my dad had a heart attack when I told him.
I mean, why would he go to play rehearsal when there was a NAVY BAND CONCERT he could've gone to??
Too bad none of us knew that Navy Band was coming.
Well, not none of us. Probably just me.
Yeaaaah, stocking up on junk food!! Yeaaaah!

Mondays, Mondays, Mondays

Yesterday was a Monday.
I hate Mondays.
Don't you hate it when you happen to glance at your horoscope while reading Dear Abby at the end of the day and discover that your 3 star day should have been a 5 star day?
It just doesn't add up.
Ha ha, we got to use the weight machines today in PE. Ha ha! Too bad I'm a weakling with no upper body strength. Ironically, dips are easier when there is more weight.
That rooms smells awful. Sort of like feet and tapioca and cheap white chocolate.
This week is POWER COLOR WEEK. I've worn nothing but power colors and it feels great.
Ooooh, I was so looking forward to the new blogthings quizzes, and they're so very innacurate!

What Your Handbag Says About You

You tend to be relaxed throughout the day. You are naturally at peace. You are a low maintenance person. You can adapt to a variety of situations. You are an organized and together person. You are competent and successful. You are an outgoing and expressive person. You always speak your mind, and you're very approachable. You are a very unique and special person. There's no one else who is anything like you.

What Does Your Handbag Say About You?

So much for youth band. After band, I felt like crap, so I went home sick. I ended up watching "The Crucible", which just made me sicker. That movie is not enjoyable, but it's very well mad and powerful. I cried a whole bunch. Daniel Day-Lewis. I thought he was sort of over the top.
Well, the last part is true.

What's Sexy About Your Name

You are sexy because you are very dreamy. You are often lost in a lush fantasy. You are a sincere and devoted partner. You are attracted to troubled souls. You will do anything for the person you love, and in the bedroom, you aim to please. Once you fall for someone, you're hooked. You give all of yourself to make the relationship work. Of all the types, you're the most likely to have a secret fantasy life. And for you, your fantasy life can be more real than your actual life at times.

What's Sexy About Your Name?

Itchy, drugged terriers need cream cheese.

We just got Tie back from Courtney and she is thoroughly miserable. Courtney took her to a park and Tie got fleas.
????
We've taken Tie to parks before and she's never gotten fleas.
So she's not acting like herself at all.
She mostly stays in her bed and when, she does get up, flinches and bites herself so much that she runs back to bed.
She still hasn't finished food from dinner.
And she didn't drink for hours, so when she finally did, she drank almost the whole bowl.
I'm really worried about her, but my mom gave her a cream cheese pill and some flower oil, so she said she'd be okay.
I hope.
:(

What Your Playing Cards Tell About Your Future

Right now you are focusing on friendships, relationships, and interpersonal connections. Your emotions are currently tied to a trusted woman in your life. She is just, and she has your best interests at heart. Your closest friend is someone you have a co-dependent relationship with. The two of you desperately need each other to survive. The near future will bring you a long term friendship, children you love, happy family relationships, and prosperity. Beware of a forced change. The circumstances of your life are about to become very different.

The Playing Card Test

Sure....
I had a drive at 11 AM today, but it was fun because it was around town, not just in the older part of town, which SUCKS because there are no stoplights or landmarks. Today, Ed had us drive to the mall, Dairy Queen (we didn't buy anything), and go around a roundabout.
Driver's Ed was sort of fun. Phoebe and I had to plan a road trip from Silverdale to WSU.
Which, funnily enough, is the route I took a couple days ago.
Too, too funny.
But the trip itself had to take at least 5 days, and we had to make 6 recreational stops.
So we went to the Space Needle (or the Space Noodle, in Jeff's words), the EMP, Mount Baker, Soap Lake, some other fantastic lake, and Nathan's best friend's family's house.
Which is where I stayed 2 days ago. Ha.
I'M GETTING MY BRACES OFF TOMORROW!!!!
Toffee for LIFE!
Yes, there will be a retainer, but WHO CARES?

Is this the strange feeling of you working all to good?

I think Caedmon's Call's "40 Acres" is the best album I own right now. I've been listening to it a lot lately, and my dad really likes it. "Somewhere North", "Faith My Eyes", and "Daring Daylight Escape" are my favorite songs. Ironically, they're all sung by Derek Webb. I think I like his voice better, and he's a good guitar player, but there's something about Cliff Young's voice that's really soothing and folksy. Most of Cliff's songs get on my nerves, though, "Petrified Heart" especially. I hate that Danielle girl. Her voice is go grating and I hate the song "Shifting Sands". I have another Caedmon's Call album from like 2003 something, and I think it's one without Derek Webb, but I've never listened to it, so I think I might. Dude, I'm totally going out and buying all of their albums now, especially "Overdressed".
"The Only One" = good Cliff Young song.
OMG, they consider "Shifting Sands" one of their BEST SONGS!
Yeah, I sort of got sick and stayed home this morning, where I read the remaining 275 pages of "The Book Thief". It was so good. I knew what was going to happen, as the NARRATOR KEPT GIVING IT AWAY, but it was to be expected (hello, Holocaust) and it felt right. So sad, though.
Contest tomorrow. Then on a bus to Oakland Bay. Then rushing back home to band practice at church. Yeah, haven't practiced my music AT ALL since last week. And Good Friday is IN TWO DAYS!!!
And Easter is in 4 days!!! I'm happy about the resurrection of Christ, but also about the chocolate bunnies.
OMG, a film adaptation of "The Book Thief" is being optioned!!! I hope it's good. I want lazy people who don't want to read the book to see it and be able to relate to the characters through film. Although, if it sucks as much as the film version of "A Chorus Line", I might just kill myself.
Hey, the fourth Maximum Ride came out recently! I have no money. Time to pay a visit to the library.

My favorite animal is the midget elephant, too!

Yeah. I just watched "Barbie as The Island Princess". The music was surprisingly really good and catchy. I am jealous of Barbie's singing voice. It was hecka better than "Princess and the Pauper".
But can you say "plot holes"? There were like 20 plot holes that left you going, "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?" And there were a lot of factual errors. MIDGET ELEPHANTS? And since when do peacocks fly?
But it was semi-enjoyable. Barbie was really pretty in this one and seemed to have at least half a brain. My dad was trying to finish "Deathly Hallows" when I was watching it last night and I kept yelling at the computer (for some reason the Xbox wouldn't read it). Seriously, tho. What kind of name is Rosella?
Only the credits revealed some disturbing information.
Matt.......as himself.
Matt? Is there anything you want to share with the class?
Also, there were a few themes that totally did not work with a Barbie movie: Having children out of wedlock? Murder? Jealousy? Making the characters seem actually human? Say it isn't so.
So William killed me and cut out my liver apparently. Right.
I guess ice cream and Fritos isn't the best meal to have when you're sick, but hey.
I finally bought the new J-14, but it was so not worth the wait. J-14's staff is suddenly all in love with Nick Jonas. And he's trying to act all deep. YOU'RE 15!!!
And Cody Linley is really creeping me out. Even more so than Ms. Wiggins.
I have 3 really boring books I have to read. And I need to start on my stupid October book journal.
Surprisingly I really don't want to miss school. I don't know if that's more because I really like school or I know that if I miss even one day Mr. Caley, Mr. Cambell, and Mrs. Sims will kill me.
Do do do do do.
I think Pepsi could cure cancer. Or AIDs. Apparently Jenna Bush is a cool kid.

Leather pants...not uncomfortable, just kind of creaky.

Civits eat coffee cherries, and then digest the bean, taking out the bitter flavor and most of the caffeine. So when it poops the stuff out, PEOPLE DRINK IT! WHAT THE HECK? Yeah, sure, as an American I'm just not open to other cultures, but THAT'S REALLY GROSS. And I usually don't say things are gross, if y'all know what I'm talking about. And it's expensive? Like $120 a pound. Seriously.
We watched "The Last Sin Eater" last night. That was a surprisingly good movie. Like a closeted Christian film. It wasn't as creepy as I would've liked, but it was a good story. I did read a lot of the spoilers when it came out, though, so that wasn't nice. I need to stop doing that, but Pluggedin needs to stop GIVING spoilers. Like, they gave all the spoilers to the end of "Evan Almighty" to show what a great spiritual example the end was. Crap.
Only in the movie last night, there was this creepy little girl named Lilybet that only the main character could see. She was scarier than the Sin Eater and the Indians and everyone else in that movie combined. There was this one part where Fagan and Cadi are in a cave and Fagan's walking away and as he's walking Lilybet suddenly appears, but he doesn't see her. I screamed, it was so freaky.
But of course, she was an angel. That's not even giving away anything, it was SO OBVIOUS. I mean, here you have a little pale, red headed girl dressed all in white who saves Cadi's life like 86 times, she has to be an angel. And it has nothing to do with the plot AT ALL. It was like Frank Peretti decided to help write the script.
But at least it didn't end like one of his books. Sucka...
I love dogs, I love dogs...
I think I've had enough Miss Popularity for now. Although it would be nice to play with the skater again and have Avril Lavigne and her Sum 41 husband (I always forget his name), or have Maximum Ride and Fang, but that would mean playing with the musician again, cuz Fang is so emo.
I'm going to create a fantasy "Maximum Ride" soundtrack playlist. But I need more than 2 songs. I'll start looking for more appropriate ones. "Your Star", by Evanescence, fit "The Last Sin Eater" perfectly. I literally had it stuck in my head for like an hour after that movie.

Grits, dummy

WOOOOOT my ipod is BALLIN!
I found some mp3 bling and it's shiny, so I puts it on my ipod.
I might've overdone it a bit. And it doesn't even look good. But hopefully I'll be able to take all this stuff off. The blue butterflies are getting to me. BUT IT'S SO SHINY!
My mom was more worried than I was. Like my ipod would be forever tormented by butterflies and rhinestones.
Speaking of nightmares, I got REALLY SICK (okay, so I've got a cold), but last night I couldn't sleep because Amy Lee and a closet of Lacrymosas kept me awake (I finally listened to "The Open Door" and was creeped out.)
Also, that album was a little disappointing. Need I point out THEY'RE NOT A CHRISTIAN BAND. I don't care if they found her at a Christian camp, she obviously doesn't care. And pluggedin was not helpful, as per usual. So there's this song that hints at sexual activity (ooer), and Bob doesn't care. But nihilism and not being upbeat are bad and should not be allowed in music. Hello, Bob, WHAT ABOUT "LOSE CONTROL"? ARE YOU NOT LISTENING TO THIS SONG? And then, Amy says "God" in a nonreligious or even, "Hello, God," sense, and he's like, "Oh, that's okay, because we're not sure if she's praying or not." I would think not, Bob. Also, "Good Enough" is supposed to be about her husband, but it makes her husband sound like a player, perv, and rapist. Either that, or she has no self respect/judgement. So if Josh were ever hungry for, I don't know, heart or something, she'd take hers out and lay it bleeding in his hand. Huh. How...nice, Amy.
But I listened to it a second time and, while creepy, it's pretty good and I might buy it sometime (my copy was from the library; in surprisingly good condition, as the library maims their CDs and DVDs).
I need to see if either of my Murtagh stories have been updated. And now I REALLY want to write one of my own.
I'm writing a trail journal. And Amy Lee's not allowed to come anymore.
Only, I don't have Oregon Trail anymores, so I have to probably copy the exact events of another one. Hope no one notices. But Murtagh is coming, and Amber and Emily, and probably someone else, like Ben Matlock or something.
I officially hate Nirvana. They annoy the crap out of me.

Dumbest things I've ever heard, Volume 1

"Russia isn't in Asia!"
"What kind of tanning bed do you use?" "I use one where you lie down."
"Okay, 3 dipped cones, would you like ice cream with that?"
That's all I can think of right now. I've actually heard these things said to me.
IT'S NOT A LIE.
I watched "Accepted" last night. Not something you want to watch with your parents, which I did. There was like 86 s-words. And a lot of sexual stuff. But Sherman and
Glen were pretty funny. Glen especially.
"I call them Glen-wads."
"*calls on cellphone* How do you like your drink? Does she like hers? Good."
"You need a Razor scooter to vote?"
"IT'S A FLAVOR EXPLOSION! I'M WORKING WITH SOME VERY UNSTABLE HEEEERBS!"

Therapy helpful? Who woulda thought?

So the L. Frank Baum book is being put to good use. I get to rant all I want about J-14's 15 hottest guys of the summer (Dylan and Cole Sprouse? Corbin Bleu? THE JONAS BROTHERS!!!!!!) and the stupid play of doom.
"Oh, so he's one of THOSE boys."
Hm.
Good book: "True Confessions of a Hollywood Starlet". I liked it. Now I'm reading the sequel, which isn't as good so far.
"Glory" is a dumb movie. And there's a lot of cussing (even in the edited version), and my teacher was like, "Oh, that's because he's Irish." !!!!!! It was funny. "He just said the F-woid." "That's okay, he's Irish." SO WRONG!
Denzel and Morgan Freeman get into a black fight. I like Denzel better with hair. They didn't have to say n---a so many times for the message to sink in.
Dylan's trying to set me up with someone who not only has a girlfriend, but also uses the n-word a lot.
I'm sure it's fine if he's black (he is, and because of our country's double standards, it is), but I wouldn't be comfortable with it.
But hello. GIRLFRIEND!
Aaaaaaand other things.
Curse self righteouness.
I need that stupid book more than ever. IT'S DE JA VU ALL OVER AGAIN! ALL WE KNOW IS FALLING! SAVE THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN! JOIN THE ARMY!
-_-
I sure wish this wasn't happening.
The stupid fuzzy dreams that were NICE a while back? Oh yeah. They're back. Full force. I'm sooo screwed.
BACK, FUZZIES!
Maybe it's convenient that I'm mostly staying at home this summer. Well, and summer school. AND Creation. AND Cispus.
Cispus is looking up, people are recognizing me, there's a good bunch of stereotypical hallmark movie/disney channel teamwork going on; IT'S ALL GOOD.
Except for various things that I probably need therapy for.
Such as...all my teachers are psycho now that it's end of the year. We had to do an ASSIGNMENT today in science. Aren't grades supposed to be in by now? And then there's band. Why can't we just turn in all the music and have a rearranging party like Mr. Villiers had us do? Answer: This isn't Mr. Villiers, suckas. It's Mr. Faxon. And we do this his way.
BUT I WANT A REARRANGING PARTY!
Too bad!
Oh man. I'm talking to myself through blogger. Someone kill me now.
Oh, and Ne-Yo's a man slut. I will never have a pop culture role model that is a...well, role model.
I just thought about it, and most of my role models are male. Except for Amy Lee. :)

...and then her leg fell off!

Wow. "Ruffian" is probably the most depressing horse movie I've ever seen. And it was horribly written. That's the last time I watch an ABC Saturday night movie.
Okay, so there's this horse "Ruffian" and everyone is all, "Oh, she's a queen." I guess I REALLY don't know horses, because she was pretty, but I wouldn't be worshiping her like all the stable hands were.
So she's really fast and she wins all these races, bla bla bla.
There's this other horse, a colt, Foolish Pleasure, that's also winning all these races. So everybody's all, "If Ruffian's any good, she's gonna have to beat the colt!" And there's this whole Battle of the Sexes and the black guy buys a "Ruffian" shirt (btw, it's 1974 South Carolina, and there's no discrimination of any kind? Excuse me, my grandpa still refers to blacks as the n-word and doesn't think the government should allow them to live in his neighborhood.), but then Ruffian's leg falls off.
That's right. Falls off.
Okay, it didn't really fall off, but she did break it, and you saw it hang off the rest of her leg by a little bit of skin, and whenever she picked up her foot it would flop around and you saw the bloody end of it.
It was only a little gross. But my mom and Nathan were screaming and stuff. William and I were just like, "-_-"
I knew she was going to lose the race (because of all the obvious foreshadowing. "Oh, she's ahead! THere's no way she can ever lose, yip yip yip!"), but I hadn't forseen her leg falling off.
So Ruffian goes into surgery and the weird reporter that looks like Earl on "My name is Earl" was all, "She was 11 for 11; she was ahead when she broke down."
YAY, they fix RUFFIAN!
But then she breaks her other leg.
Seriously. She's all, "Wth, why do I have a cast on my leg, WOLVES, OMGEEZZZ, AAAAAAAH!" and her other leg falls off. You don't actually see it, though, you just hear the tearful trainer saying it sadly on the phone to the owners.
I swear, when she heard Ruffian was going to die, the owner's wife started laughing. Not even kidding.
So they put Ruffian down.
Uh, hello? WHat kind of movie was that?
Why couldn't they do an inspirational film about a horse that actually WON the big race?
Although I could see why they'd want to do a movie about her. I mean, she brought a lot of attention back to horseracing and she was 10 for 10 (or 11 for 11. Whatever.) and she was the first and only horse buried at Belmont.
And I'm sure they had a lot of fun taping the leg falling off part.
But aren't horse movies supposed to be happy and wonderful? I mean, the whole "miracle" vibe wasn't exactly flowing ("Wow, she grew another leg!" "Wow, she can run even faster with only 3 legs!" "We won't put her down! We'll sew her leg back on and have her be a riding horse for little kiddies!"). It was just like, "Wth? Why'd I just spend 2 hours watching that?"
Granted, I've only seen a few racing movies in my lifetime. I know, me, the horse freak, not into horse movies.
Let's see..."Black Beauty" (not a racing movie), "Black Stallion", "Dreamer" (awwww), I STILL HAVEN'T SEEN "SEABISCUIT!"
Church was really great last night. They had this worship group from some Christian college and they were amazing; very tight harmonies.
"Are you a Majesty groupie?" "Erm, no."

Hormones cause hunger

How true. I ate a lunch consisting of mostly protein (lots of ham, a protein bar, nuts...), a huge dinner from Arby's, ice cream, popcorn, and fruit yesterday, and I was still hungry as I went to bed.
Agh.
We watched three chick flicks (sort of), all of which I have never seen before, and I so feel like commenting on them.

10 Things I Hate About You: I'd heard it was really good and Heath Ledger is in it. Also, it took place in Seattle (a fact my mom so joyfully pointed out during the opening credits). Based on "The Taming of the Shrew", only no one gets beaten into submission at the end. Now I really need to read that play. Except for the constant profanity and sexual references (hey, I'm Christian, give me a break), it was pretty good.
Best Part: When Patrick (Heath Ledger) sings to Kat (Julia Styles) in front of the whole soccer team, and has the school marching band play the song. Awwww... Heath Ledger has really ugly hair in this movie, but has a really nice smile. Why do Australians always have really nice teeth? The song they were originally going to use was "I Think I Love You" by the Partridge Family. I wish they had (love that song), but the one they used ("I Can't Take My Eyes Off You") was effective.
Worst Part: Um...probably when the nerd Michael gets a picture of the male anatomy drawn on his face. Or the part where Kat flashes the teacher to get Patrick out of detention. Mainly because I was watching this with my mom and it was mucho uncomfortable.
My mom thought it was "romantic", but I thought it was slightly creepy when Michael goes all Shakespearean on Mandella and hits on her Olde English style. I guess because in my opinion, true romance is dead.

While You Were Sleeping: Lucy (Sandra Bullock) falls for this guy (Peter Gallagher; pretty shocked to see him. I was all, "Aren't you supposed to be raising immoral teenagers in California?") at the train station where she works, but then he pushed off the tracks during a mugging and falls into a coma. And then she accidentally tells everyone she's his fiancee and his family is convinced it's true. And, to top it all off, she falls for his brother Jack (Bill Pullman). Kind of boring and the ending was cheesy, but it was okay.
Best Part: Hm....I don't know. All the scenes kind of run together. I kind of liked the part where she almost broke Jack's nose.
Worst Part: Pretty awkward. She's trying to convince the family she is really Peter's fiancee, and all of a sudden, she's all, "Peter has only one testicle." So the family has to go in and check. And it turns out SHE'S RIGHT.

She's All That: Didn't like this movie so much, especially with my mom. After getting dumped by really slutty girlfriend, Zack (Freddie Prinze, Jr., when he was actually cute) makes a bet with his best friend that he can change the nerdiest girl in school (Laney Boggs, played by Rachael Leigh Cook) into a prom queen. Let the games begin.
Best Part: Not much to choose from. I liked that the DJ was played by Usher, even though he was really annoying.
Worst Part: Pretty much the whole movie. Awkward, liberally sprinkled with the s-word, and two lil F-bombs, and I almost puked when Zack forced a bully to eat a piece of pizza he'd, uh, put some semen on. You had to WATCH it, and you could see the hairs, IT WAS SO GROSS!

Yeah. That was the extent of my evening. I didn't go to bed until "The Tonight Show" was over.
Still thinking about the pizza thing. Ew.

Sacrilegious jelly beans

Took an Easter candy quiz.
I'm the sacrilegious jelly beans.
Ate too much candy today.
NEED TO START MY BOOK.
My mom gave me a sleeping pill.
Not nice.
Need to finish LOTR and start Blood and Chocolate.
Track tomorrow. I don't wanna go to school.
The twins are funny.
I'm gonna steal Braeden's shirt.
Nursery was cool.
Missed the sermon.
no spiritual high for me.
Thankfully Mark is easy to read.
HAPP YEASTER!!!!!!!

Cough. Hack. Cough cough. Hack.

I watched "Grease: you're the one that I want" last night. MAX IS SO ADORABLE. If he doesn't win, I might commit suicide. DEREK GOT OUT! He was too John Stamos-y. I was all laughing, but then I was like, "Wait...AUSTIN'S STILL IN!" and Austin's really evil and everything. He has a really scary baritone voice and I don't find him attractive at all. And he's BLONDE.
But Max is adorable AND a good singer/actor.
Even though Laura and Ashley are both really good, Laura is better, but she and Max have no chemistry.
Like at all.
What happened to all the Harry Potter quizzes?
Sad.
Hahaha.
I shall now see if I can go on someone's Myspace profile without being blocked by INTEGRITY.
Integrity has to be working with the devil. I mean, I can't go on Youtube or any good game sites and their service is horrible.
BY THE WAY, I'm still SICK, so that's why I'm posting this as 9:30 in the morning. Someone ate all my St. Patrick's Day cake.
:(
Cady: Do you guys have any pink?
Janice: No.
Damien: I DO!
I was just reminded of that film.
Wow. How true: "You know you need a boyfriend when cartoon characters start to look amazingly hot."
Lalala. I still want to buy stuff off itunes, yo.
I sure wish I had a donut. Or some St. Patrick's Day cake.
Or cookie dough. Mmmmmmm...

My hips don't lie

They don't, though. Why is our culture so obsessed with the curved white bones jutting out from your waist? I find them fascinating.
Except when I ram them into a wall or something.
Don't you hate it when people keep trying to give you information when you're trying to walk away? It's like, "Okay, i get it," and so you start to leave and they keep TALKING and then they get all offended when you're like, "Shut up." It's like they think you walking away means, "Give me more information or else I might shrivel up and die." Noooo, it actually means, "Gotcha, let me go try that, please shut the heck up, come on, what's your problem, DO YOU HAVE ON OFF SWITCH?"
Dang, I wanna buy some songs off itunes. But then Nathan all freaked out and he was like, "What, download? No, you can't download. It'll take forever." And I just wanted to know if I needed a credit card or not. But it's my family we're talking about. So I don't know if I'll ever get "Temperature" or "Hips don't lie" on my nano while we still have Integrity.
WHICH IS THE SUCKIEST INTERNET CONNECTION I HAVE EVER HAD.
Besides Earthlink. *gag*
Ebay, ebay.
I'll make like Ciena and go to ebay.
Haven't seen her in a while.
:(
Maaybe Dad and I will be able to go to Georgia this year cuz Nancy has tickets?
TIGHT.
But anyways. I think I shall search for Star Wars action figures (such as Queeeen Amidala) or old school FOB CDs.
Hmmhmmhmm I haaaaaate dial-up sooooooo muuuuuch.
Hahaha, I asked my parents for a cellphone and they went, "Maybe next year." Hahahaha.
-_-
Come on.
By the time I actually get one, no one will be using cellphones anymore.
They'll probably be using cellular devices that have been surgically placed in the pelvic region.
One day I'm going to get stranded in Seattle with NO MONEY at all and I won't be able to call for help unless some poor stranger takes pity on me BECAUSE I HAVE NO CELLPHONE.
And I'll probably be mugged. By a seagull.
I hate being sick. This cold is such a pain.

St. Patty's Day loves Hannah Montana

It's St. Patrick's Day today. Yaaaay. Whoopie.
I got a new St. Patrick's day shirt that isn't green.
:(
It's white.
Dang, this is my favorite holiday, why couldn't I celebrate it at school?
I was sick yesterday, so I don't know if they did anything.
Hahahaha, as if.
I'm so sick of Hot Pockets, so tired of cheese, so tired of wishing my mom would by...peas? Dang, I lost my wonderful "So Sick" parody.
OMGEEZ I CRY TEARS OF EXTREME PAIN! I like Blogthings sooo much better than Quizilla. Seriously. What are those people thinking? "You will marry Harry Potter, eat five chickens, and cry tears of extreme pain after you find your favorite color is Gerard Way." Yeaaaaaah...
Ew, there's coconut in my gum and it's really bothering me. The gum part's all swollen and it hurts and I don't know why, even when I floss the heck out of it.
That's a stereotype. Not only am I NOT a tomboy, but I don't ALWAYS make the team. I didn't even make the basketball team.
Technically, I didn't...whatever.
That is one ugly prom dress.
Hmhmhm.
I watched "Hannah Montana" this morning (not on Disney channel, thanks to my cheap parents. Jk!). Dare I say it, I love that show. :( And Oliver is still pretty much amazing. Jackson is really short.
I also watched Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
Arwin had hair.
Hm.
All my NCAA dreams are going down the drain. All my favorite teams I think are going down the drain. Xavier lost to Ohio when they should've won, but that one loser missed the second free throw, so they were pretty much screwed.
I read "Phantom Menace" by Terry Brooks. Wasn't as bad/overdramatically funny as I expected. In fact, it was pretty good. Except for the fact that he used the same stupid adjectives a lot. Then again, so do I, so that's something we both need to work on. And he managed to do like three page long descriptions of Otoh Gunga when I can't even do one paragraph. I hate descriptions.
I miss the Zags. But I hate Pendergraft so much. Grrr. Die.
Anakin: I'm going to marry you.
Padme: HAHAHAHA oh you silly, silly boy.
Anakin: I mean it.
Padme: Ooooh...well, I don't know how this is going to work, seeing as you're just a little boy. [This coming from a 14-year-old. Very mature, Amidala.]
Anakin: I won't always be...
Padme: *really freaked out* Sorry, I need to go fight for the freedom of my people now!
Terry Brooks, you SLAY ME.
Eragon is coming out on DVD.
JOYOUS DAYS!
Lol, I should totally buy it. Or make Murtagh posters.
Maybe I should do a spoof of Eragon. That would make me feel fantastic.

March Madness, madness, basketball, and how life sucks in general

I'm in a weird kind of mood these days. Kind of desensitized. Bored a little. Kinda don't care I guess? My life kind of sounds like an Evanescence song. Or a Linkin Park song. Only without the angsty rap/rock background.
Basketball is finally over, THANK YOU GOD.
I mean, I love it. Coach Cline and Johnson taught me a hecka lot about basketball. And I like that I have more stamina and stuff now.
But with a team captain that blamed everybody else for her mistakes (I'm sure I'm just imagining it, but she did this the most to me) and a girl who had no idea what sarcasm was and bossed you around while she SUCKED out on the floor, it was like, God, please let me go hooooome.
And the 2 hour a day practice didn't help.
We got to go to Mcdonalds for our last away game on Tuesday. Two double cheeseburgers, fries, and a shamrock shake.
It's all gooooood.
I blew my money on a stupid computer game. I thought it was like Zoo Tycoon. It's Mall Tycoon and I've played it before, but this is the poor man's version of Mall Tycoon. Weird, creepy graphics, and stupid challenges that I can't seem to complete.
DANG. I should've gotten Mall of America Tycoon, by a different (probably better) company. Or that Africa game where you create your own ecosystem.
I got a cold yesterday. Aaaagh I feel so bad. Not so much anymore, so I'm pretty much lying.
Tired. And hungry. Dizmas screaming in my ears. I REALLY want a dog.
Dreamed I had a horse named Luke. Also dreamed I was IN the africa ecosystem game.
I swear, I'm pretty sure something is wrong with this year. Because the Zags AND Duke AND Wright lost last night, so I only have like 2 teams to root for during March Madness.
And I didn't get sick...pretty much at all last year.
American Idol's so lame this year. It's already top 12 and I don't even care.
No good shows are on.
I want 2006 back.
I am Peppermint Patty.
Oh, that's just wrong.
"What Gay Childhood Icon Are You?": You are the very gay Peppermint Patty! Softball was the big tipoff here. As well as a "best friend" who loves to call her "sir".
Not right.
Now that I have a life again (cough cough) I will be able to start up my book again. I basically deleted all 30 pages of my rough draft because I didn't like where it was going and the main character was going all whiny and crap. So now I can start afresh.
Soap? Maybe... Probably not... nah.
HOW CAN THEY NOT HAVE BONE AT THE LIBRARY? AAAAH! AAAH! AAAAAAAH!

I'm sorry...

....BUT CAN YOU SAY DRAMA!????/
OMGEEEEEEEEEZ, I'm still sick. *cough cough* *cough* Sorry, I feel another one coming on. *cough*
And I've been up for like 5.5 hours and all I've done is listen to my ipod (now with 277 songs on it!) and do sudoku. Not even kidding.
And I was just thinking of random things and they were REALLY HILARIOUS!
From some story on Quizilla: CARSON???? NO! I loved you and you never called me!
From "Princess and the Pauper": [Erika] What's wrong, Wolfy? Are you sick? Something in your throat? Wait a minute...are you trying to...MEOW? [Wolfy] MmmmmWOOF!
From real life/South Carolina: Here I am! LBLBLBLBLBLBLB!
HAHAHAHAHA! I must be high on...something. I only had a bowl of cereal like four hours ago? I don't know.
Dumdedumdedum.
Wonder who wants to write a trail journal with me, hum...
Who should come, I wonder?
how bout...MURTAGH AND AMY LEE!!!!
Is it okay for someone to be your role model just for being pretty?
It doesn't seem right...
but I don't care, because she's ALSO a good singer.
AAAAAAAAAGH i found a DRESS!!!!
IT'S BLACK! AND FORMAL! AND I DON'T LOOK LIKE A SLUT!
YESSSSSSSS!
Hm. *looks at deodorant* It says "Little Black Dress approved". MY DEODORANT IS LITTLE BLACK DRESS APPROVED.
