King Boris

I love SUBWAY COMMERCIALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That dude on them is so awesome!!!!!!! He's like the reincarnation of Zizou Corder's character King Boris. Only taller. I just saw the newest commercial. "The blonde boy's a loser! And now dinner!"
So here I am, not at school, once again. I'm much improved from yesterday, but I really didn't want to go to school today and I'll probably be completely healed by tomorrow. Also, I had a lovely McDonald's burger. That should fix me right up. Ah, that sounded really dumb.
De ja vu. All over again.
I've pretty much had the rockin awesomest morning ever. First: read reviews of movies I'd heard about/already seen/kinda wanted to see on http://www.pluggedinonline.com. Movies they hated: "The Producers" (understandable), "Rent" (way understandable), "Phantom of the Opera" (WHOA! Big surprise, there.). Movies they sort of liked, but didn't reccomend: "When a Stranger Calls" (wow. Weird.)
Second: Watched a movie of the Bibleman show that my mom got at the library. WOW. How 90's is this? This one kid seriously wore overalls where the bib WENT UP TO HIS NECK!!!! GROSS!!!! And they did all this "nifty" choreography. I was pretty much itching to get up and dance. NOT. Aaaaaaah how scary. But I felt bad because this one kid I THOUGHT was a girl turned out to be a guy with dreads and a spectacular singing voice (I COULDN'T HELP IT!!! I thought MICHEAL TAIT was a girl too when I was 6!!!!!). Oh well. And then BIBLEMAN HAD TO ESCAPE FROM THE EVIL MADAME GLITZ. He ends up doing so, tho, and WITHOUT USING HIS LIGHTSABER (or the Sword of the Spirit, but it is SO a lightsaber) squishes her into the TV. Actually, he doesn't do it, God does. Bibleman justs quotes Scripture.
Third: Watched "The Never Ending Story II: The Next Chapter". I've already seen this once before, but I'd forgotten how dumb it was. I mean, as a four-year-old, I LOVED the first one. Even tho it was scary. And Artex dies. :( But this one was BEYOND LAME. And Bastian suddenly has blonde hair, when in the first one it was CURLY AND BROWN, and then, LO AND BEHOLD, in the third one (which I've yet to see), IT'S BROWN AND CURLY!!! BOOYA!!!! Yeah, and he kills Atreyu. And has a girly scream. And at the end, I was like, "IT'S THE RAPIDS FROM HIS DREAM!!! FANTASY!!!!! NIGHTMARE!!!!!!! WHATEVER!!!!"
Lastly: Watched Ellen's 499th show. Tomorrow's her 500th show. And next Monday Tony's leaving forever. :( NOT TONY NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But Carson Daly offered him a DJing job and he was like, "No, sucka." Actually, he said something along the lines of, "There's only one show I'm going to DJ on." Yeah.
So that was it. The blonde boy's still a loser. And not Bastian. I wish I could still write trail journals.

Grasshopper eyeballs

Things that have recently happened in my life in chronological order:
1. I got sick (again. what is up with my immune system? I'M GONNA DIE SOON!!!!! NOOOO!!)
2. I watched 2 episodes of "The Waltons" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" (fell asleep halfway through, tho)
3. Looked at the books Mom got me from the library (including 2 about....*drumroll*...FORENSIC SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She also got "Red Feather Filly", which looks slightly lame.
So that's about it. Besides the fact that I really wanted to watch "Ham on the Street" today, but we don't get the Food channel. I LOVE HAM!!!!! I LOVE THE STREET!!!!! Except for the thing on Stone soup. That was dumb. "IT'S THE CHICKEN LADY!!!!!" "Yeah, I was, um, hungry."
I love my new hat. It is pretty much super awesome. And it's black. And it looks like the hat I saw a New Orleans trombone player wear. I think that was him. Yeah. I love it.
By the way, what's up with my state? Everyone's all, "New OrLEENS." And I'm all, "Um, I pronounce it New Orlins." (duh, I know it's not spelled like that) and they go, "NOO NOO NOO, it's New OrLEENS or N'awlins!!!!!" Wth? THAT'S SO DUMB!!!!!!!!
"...3,000 people? That sounds like quite a party. Why wasn't I invited? And you say, 'Of course you were invited.' Well, it's not really a party..." I love Geico. hehehehe.
I'm contemplating making a motivational CD this summer. Or for summer anyways. But my family refuses to show me the art of burning CDs. However, my dad WAS all, "That's PIRATED." when I showed him my new Fresh Digress CD. "Um, no, it's not pirated, Amber burned it." "HA. Not pirated." Yeah.

Haaaaaagen-Daaaaaaaz

So I'm all sitting in the dentist's office reading "People" and there's this picture of a scoop of Haagen-Daaz's new Mayan Chocolate ice cream. Come on, people. MAYAN CHOCOLATE!!! But I told my mom about it and she thought it looked gross. That's what I said when I was about to try my first bite of Mayan Chocolate, and, hello, THAT'S NOT GROSS!!!!
Angelina Jolie is apparently the most beautiful woman in the world, and she has the most beautiful family.
I got SOOO mad yesterday. I tried to install Catz 3 on my cpu, but it's like too old or something, because it kept freezing and when the menu popped up, it wouldn't be fully installed or something. And I compeletely lost Legacy. I'm looking up the possibility of getting one of the Petz 5, but I have no money, and I'm also looking at 3 CDs and "High School Musical", which is coming out really soon.
Nathan's saying to hurry up. So I gotta go. NYAAAAAAAAAH...

Happy Mother's Day

I told my mom to sleep in till 8:40. She almost made it, but then she woke up and begged my dad to let her come out. But it was nice. She even made a cake after we left for church. And she liked her card and flowers. We should've got her chocolates. Then we can force her to share.
THE WANGSTA SHOES ARE FINALLY CLEAN!!!!! They mstill somewhat like horses, but they look okay. Only my dad polished them for me (I cleaned them last night, but he insisted on polishing them) and covered up the blue stitching. So now it says "Converse" in white. On white. A little hard to see.
Soooo that was basically all I wanted to say. I was going to play "Legacy" but I can't find it. :( Worship team today was AWESOME. No youth group, tho. :( Oh well.

Mugging the Pizza Man, man

That's what I did today at Amber's, along with Emily, the other Emily, Sarah, and Amber. And we had lightsabers. And hats, after I insisted. It's not a raid without hats. We were waiting for...the pizza man. And then he finally came, but he broke the Domino's law and didn't put the little Domino's thing on top of his car, so we didn't know it was him till it was too late. And we chased him and insisted he give us our pizzas. But he didn't and was like, "Whatev." Blaah...
Pretzel Time rocks, but next time I need to ask them not to put any ice in my soda. Cuz that meant I only got half of a small. There was that much ice.
So we went to the mall for a Mother's Day gift for Grandma, but I still had these giftcards that had sat lonely in my mom's purse for many months, so I used those and got an awesome hat and stuff... But we got Grandma something nice. Even tho we didn't get her truffles, like I thought she would like and said so outloud in the Hallmark greeting card store, but everyone just laughed. I'm not a pig, I'm not.
:( Apparently Fall Out Boy isn't the awesome band I'd hoped they would be. They're just a sex-obsessed lame excuse for punk/emo band. And the fact that I heard clearly the lyrics of "Dance, dance" in the Gap didn't help. Nyaaaaaaaaaah...

M. Night Shyamalamalamalamalamalama...

So we've been wanting to have a 2-movie M. Night Shyamalan marathon all week, and my mom got two of his movies for us to watch. However, instead of "The Village" and "The Mothman Prophecies", she got "Signs" and "Unbreakable" (I WAS RIGHT!! It's NOT R-RATED and it IS M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN!!!! Told you...)
Signs: This was actually a super good movie. Because it was freaky when nothing scary really happened. Like, the Portuguese kids see the alien and it just WALKS PAST. It doesn't pop out from underneath the window box. It doesn't smash through the walls. It just WALKS PAST. That, my friends, is scary. To me, anyways. The end was kind of lame cuz it wasn't that scary, but everything finally made sense, so that was okay. But I thought it was sad when Morgan killed Houdini because he tried to attack Bo.
Unbreakable: This. Is. The. Lamest. Movie. I. Have. Ever. Seen. Seriously. The first scene isn't even ABOUT Bruce Willis' char, it's about Elijah Price and how he was born with broken arms and legs cuz he has the bone shatter disease. And it turns out David Dunn (Bruce Willis) has the same disease, only in a different form so his bones DON'T shatter EVER and he never gets sick, unlike Elijah. But he's SUCH A DORK. David, that is. Because Elijah told him to go where the people are and he gets all these premonitions about them (like a lady steals something from a jewelry store and a girl gets taken advantage of) and he lets these people WALK AWAY. Then he goes to this house that someone broke into and he waits A REALLY LONG TIME before going in, then WALKS AROUND THE HOUSE. And it turns out the parents are dead. OMG, he had a twelve year old son in that movie WHO I WAS PLANNING TO KILL, HE WAS SO ANNOYING. He was like obsessed with his dad and stuff and then threatens to shoot him because he's all, "You're invincible, I swear, it'll just bounce off." And then his mom is like, "NO SHOOTING FRIENDS, JOSEPH!" So Shyamalamalama let me down. I hope his other movies are better.

Welcome back, Chris Daughtry

I can't believe I've failed to mention this.
It was so shocking, just too sudden...
I couldn't believe it was even happening...
WHY THE HECK DID CHRIS DAUGHTRY GET OUT ON "AMERICAN IDOL"??????????
EVERYONE, including Simon, SAID HE WAS GOING TO WIN IT ALL. Yet he goes home. Why? Because KATHARINE is 1. a girl and 2. one to shake her chest and wear low cut outfits DURING SONGS. Like Paula. Only Paula's gross and old.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M SO MAD AT THEM WHY?????????
However, I did write THE AWESOMEST story ever about Jake and Whitney, and Jake cheats on Whitney and the whole thing is resolved with Nokia picture phones. And Twinkies. And Diet Pepsi giving you cancer. And there's like 6 morals.
Guess what I did in PE? WALK THE TRACK, BABY!!!!!!! Aaaaaah I hate it... But I actually passed Mrs. Hurd, so I get EXTRA CREDIT HEHEHEHE!!!! And I was too lazy to do it again, so I just stayed right in front of her the whole time. And she didn't catch me once. But she made us walk like a mile and a half. In the freezing cold. Brrr.
Okay, how come the 7th grade LA/SS block NEXT to ours got to eat food and watch "THE LION KING", MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER, while we read about Commodore Perry and his valiant trip to Japan? :( I almost cried. It was really sad. And in study hall, all these kids were offering the teachers cookies, but not the kids, and they were really big and looked pretty awesome, so I screamed after a few freshmen, "Why are you giving them to teachers and not us? Huh? You're mean, I hate you." And Mr. Griffith got mad. And the freshmen were like, "Oh, silly sevvies, you shall never faze us with your incessant shouting. Nevermore, nevermore!!" (it's only because they're watching "Romeo and Juliet" that they sound like that. I could hear "A Time For Us" blasting out of the walls all 1st period")
Gaaaaaah I have a super long word find with 117 words on it that I have to finish by Monday. And it's gonna take me several hours. And Scott was all bragging about how he finished it in one period. Liar. I bet. I'm pretty sure. Yeah.
I would've gotten home pretty early today, thanks to the fact that I grabbed my trombone BEFORE study hall and not after. But I didn't have any keys thanks to Nathan. So Mom's getting us both a bunch of keys. And I have a super awesome keychain/ring thing to go with. :) I also had a scoop of Bunny Tracks ice cream when I got home to ease the pain of the unjustness. Nevermore, nevermore...

Smooth Reuben

I am now in the making of...making the awesomest baby ever. As in the science thing we have to do. I tried twice AS SOON as I got home from school (but while doing so, knocked over my Coke with a sparkly purple pencil and spilled half of it on an article about white people getting mad over the race of the Viking Queen or whatever), but they're pretty sad. I mean, both Britney and Peter Pan have bushy eyebrows. And Peter Pan's mom was a platinum blonde supermodel. Britney's dad is scary. But they're not awesome. And I had to draw a picture of my "daughter" for science. OMG, she is the SCARIEST thing I've ever seen, cuz Adrianna and I used Gatorade bottles to make the head round...AAAAAAAAAH SCARY MONSTER!! And I did this pretty awesome drawing of our daughter as a baby, but then Mr. Griffith is all, "No, do them as a teenager." NOOOOOOOOO!!! So I do that. Big disaster. She resembles a walking melon. Nathan drew her lips and they make her look a little like...a walking melon... Yeah. But I'm going to create two babies and write a "tragic" story involving them. And one of their mom's is going to be...a platinum blonde supermodel.
I just made brownies with BAKER'S CHOCOLATE!!!! Wow, that sounded...interesting. Like Jamie from "Walk to Remember" interesting/scary. Baker's chocolate is NASTY. It looks good, it smells heavenly, but it tastes like...gross, just lost appetite.
Today we had the world's awesomest band sub. She's actually a music teacher or voice teacher or something, but she's a pretty nifty band teacher.
YAAAAAAAY we got to work in the library for like ALL of 6th period. And since I had nothing to work on, I got to read "Midnight", 1st book in the "Warriors: The New Prophecy" series. Although, that book is REALLY hard to get into. Cuz it's TOTALLY about Bramblepaw, the cat I really wanted to know more about from the first series (even tho NOW he's Brambleclaw), but so much has happened between series and not only is it hard to keep up, nothing interesting is happening. It's just "a day in the life of". So I read Bram Stoker's "Dracula", Usborne version, illustrations and all.
HAHAHA in PE we had this assignment to keep track of what we ate in one day AND I'M ALREADY DONE!!!! I just wrote down all of yesterday's meals. But then Mrs. Hurd made me walk around the gym because I couldn't find anything to do for 20 minutes. I mean, basketball: awesome, but I'm horrible. Hockey: Who really wants to play this with a bunch of 6' 180 lb freshman guys? Not me. Volleyball: HECK NO. So I walked around the gym. I've been doing a lot of that lately. Walking, I mean.

Walk the track

PE is so lame. The only options they're giving us are play softball or walk the track. Guess what I've been doing for the past TWO WEEKS? Yep, walking the track. I've gotten better wind and stuff, I guess, but Mrs. Hurd ALMOST caught up to me and I was like, "NYAAAAH!!!" and run away. That's basically what I do. Wait till she catches up and run away, then walk.
OMG I saw the "7th Heaven" series finale on Monday and IT WAS SO DUMB!! Cuz yeah, no one wanted Simon and Rose to get married, but it was so VAGUE. Cuz the whole thing was like Rose cheating on Simon with Umberto (I love that name. If I was taking Spanish, that would so be my name. That or MAHCEL! Marcel. Whatever.) and planning to marry HIM instead, and then all the Camdens were like, "FLASHBACK TIME!!!" And at the end, it turns out Simon and Rose DIDN'T get married, and Ruthie has a Scottish boyfriend who's also a waiter? and carries nail polish remover around? Um...Ruthie?? And EVERYONE who's pregnant is having TWINS!! What is UP WITH THIS???? Matt and his wife: WE'RE HAVING TWIN BOYS!!!!! Lucy and Kevin: Um, SO ARE WE!!!!! Mary's ex: Yeah, we're back together and WE'RE HAVING TWINS!! GIRLS!!! And the mom did this scary thing where she was like, "*gasp* THAT'S AMAZING," in this freaky poltergeist/"Mommy Dearest" voice. It was FREAKY. "Nooooo...wire...HANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Yay we might possibly have an M. Night Shyamalan marathon sometime this weekend or something. Except I can't see any of his R-rated ones. But I swear I read about this one movie with Samuel L. Jackson in it that SAID IT WAS HIS and now everyone's like, "Noooooo it's not you're craaaaaaaaaazy..."
WE MADE BABIES IN SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was pretty dumb. We had to flip coins and stuff for the traits and Adrianna and I basically cheated the whole time. So I pretty much have all recessive genes on my side. And it's a girl. And Daniel was the mom of his boys. But it was weird, all the girls paired with girls and all the boys paired with boys. There was only ONE hetero couple. But we weren't allowed to say that cuz it made Mr. Griffith mad.
We have the AWESOMEST music now in band. Cuz Mr. Villiers surveyed which pieces we didn't like and we got rid of some, like "FIDDLER ON THE ROOF", thank goodness. And he gave us this Disney piece called "Disney Blockbusters" with THE AWESOMEST Aladdin song of all time: "Friend like me", sung by Robin Williams. I think. Yeah. It's super awesome. I'm lovin it. "Aladdin" was once my favorite Disney movie, even tho I've seen the whole thing like 3 times in my life. Sad. But he has the awesomest insults. "Two faced son of a jackal!!!!!"
Awesome Aladdin insults that I've mad up: see above, stupid son of a camel, slobbering son of a dog, snivelling son of a desert rat, stripy son of a tiger, no good son of a llama, ugly son of a parrot, flexible son of a monkey.

Gummy Bunnies!!!

Nathan got some of those for Easter and I ate most of them. They're fake, they're unhealthy, but they're so darn GOOOOD!!!!!
Aaaaaaaagh I was reading "Keeper of the Night" today and that's like the most pointless book I've ever read. It's just the daily life of this girl who's like, "I hate haoles, I don't remember my mom." It's REALLY LONG, too. Actually, it was only like 308 pages, and they were super short, but it felt like forever when I was done. "Party Princess" was okay, but whatever, I still think Mia needs a new boyfriend. Cuz in every book now, it's always, "OMG MY BOYFRIEND SAID SOMETHING AND I THINK IT MEANS SOMETHING ELSE WHAT DO I DO HE'S GOING TO BREAK UP WITH ME AAAAAAH!!!!!" I liked the first three books better. 4 was lame. 5 wasn't too bad. And then came 6, which was SOOO STUPID. And 7 was basically just like 6. Only better. And funnier. But Michael is always saying stuff that gets misunderstood. And then he's all, "How'd you get that, retard?" Um, maybe it's cuz you're so VAGUE. Die. Die. Die.
I've read 9 of the Phantom Stallion books in maybe a month or less. I'm currently taking a break. One, because I have so many books right now (currently 24 checkouts, even tho I'm DONE with 8 of them, so that's only........16 checkouts), two, they're slightly annoying, and three, holds from this series pop up every three days and it has my mom running around trying to keep up with them.
Not cool. William and Paul be dissing on my horses. The ones on "Dynasty Warriors", anyway. And how color signifies rank and stuff. Which I find kind of cool, because I'm down with color coding, but dumb cuz it causes my brothers to be all, "DUMB HORSE, lame-o wrank, haha sucka." Grrrrr... And then Paul was just all, "Oh sure, save the horse." Okay, I KNOW it's a war, BUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH SAVING THE HORSE?????
School: not worth mentioning. Yesterday was better because we had semi awesome subs for periods 1 and 2 and Mr. Jansen came back YAY!!! But today was dumb. And Daniel got really mad at me, so I feel kind of bad about that now. And I KEEP RUNNING INTO DONOVAN. It was cool, tho, cuz we were making bar graphs of like mountains and stuff in the library and Billy was talking about something a teacher wouldn't appreciate (or maybe any adult), and then Mrs. Moon comes over and he didn't see her, so he kept talking, and then he saw me staring at her and shut up. Okay not so funny. But it was at the time.

Yellow sticky notes on my bulletin board...

So yeah, the reason I haven't posted for three days is that I was at Miracle Ranch, no duh, like I've mentioned before. I think. Vaguely, anyway. I can't believe I forgot to on Friday. About that AND about my new wangsta shoes. They are (surprise, surprise) Converse All Stars, but not Chuck Taylors, so they look totally different from my other shoes. And they're white. But they had a heel, so my mom let me wear them to Miracle Ranch. They surprisingly didn't get as dirty as I would've thought. Well, they hadn't by the last day, anyway. Then a big old Clydesdale trots up and STEPS ON MY FOOT!!!!!! So much for docile creatures. He was the only horse that did that all weekend. Although, I didn't have Cisco this time, cuz he stepped on my foot A LOT last year. Well, I started out with Cisco, but he was being a pill, so I switched with Kat and ended up with Jazz. She's a bit slow, but other than that, the awesomest English horse ever. But even riding English, she can herd cows with the best of them. Except that caused her to freak out and canter like crazy, causing me to LOSE STIRRUPS, so Clif didn't let me let her do that anymore. But the cows were kind of scary. They kept licking Rio's legs. "Heeeello Meeester Coooow Ponyyy." *shivers*
GONG SHOW RULES!!!!! Sure, I forgot/messed up my lines twice, along with several other people, but it was fun and everyone was like, "Wow...that was really, really deep." Lol, not really. But they liked it. And they all enjoyed my portrayal of a goth in need of anger management, dubbed Mad Max. But I swear, during the LOST skit, we had to watch the lamest Jeff Probst flashback. AAAAAAAAAAH RAT POISON!!!!! And then Sarai got mad when I dropped my derby and Peter stepped on it accidentally. Or semi mad. Or not really mad. I don't know.
YAAAAAAAAAY I GOT A HAIR STRAIGHTENER!!!!! Except I'm not very good at straightening yet. My hair's still curly and stuff. Only semi straight. And I keep freaking out in thinking that I'm going to MELT my hair or something, like that woman on Oprah whose husband set her on fire. So whenever I see it shine or glisten under the light, I'm like, "AAAAAH MELTY SCALP HELP ME!!!" Then I feel it and it's hot, but fine. Phew.
No fair, it's pretty hard to chew gum (even delicious Orbit Peppermint gum ((TM))) when you're missing FOUR TEETH. But it's not that bad. Just keep it up front or in back. Away from the dumb premolars. Yeah, I defied the dentist and trotted on Friday. But NOTHING HAPPENED. And my spaces/clots are all healed all ready. It's just NORMAL. Now, anyways. But they ache sometimes. Lol, that sounded like something from "Ladies in Lavendar". Not that I've seen that movie. But I kinda wanted to. Except the violinist's name is ANDREA. And he's a GUY. Sure, sure, that's a GUYS name in Russia/Poland or whatever, but it strikes me as SLIGHTLY odd. I'm an American, I guess.

It was Friday, school was out tonight...

...everything seemed to be all right. I said, "Yo, are you going to the party at the cove?" She said, "He's pickin me up at 6 again and I don't wanna disappoint my boyfriend."
Another great Friday song, not unlike Olivia the Band's "Saturday", only that song was about, well, Saturday. Aaah I'm wearing my compression shorts right now and they are SOOOO comfortable!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WHO FINALLY GOT "PARTY PRINCESS" FROM THE LIBRARY??????? MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! Except the whole plot has to do with the fact that Mia misunderstood Micheal YET AGAIN and has to figure out that he didn't mean what he said. Whatever. It's still an awesome series. Way better than the All American Girl series. "Ready or Not" was REALLY disappointing; Sam's a major loser. But I think Mia should break up with Micheal. Hello, there's always THE GUY WHO HATES IT WHEN THEY PUT CORN IN THE CHILI, aka J.P.!!!!!!!!
It was weird. I kept running into Donovan today. I seriously ran into him like 4 times and, get this, he ALWAYS has 2nd lunch, but who do I see at first lunch 10:10 in the morning?? DONOVAN, that's who. And he said it was to hang out with his "buds", but then Kyran (I seriously don't know how to spell his name, but whatever. Sorry, dude, if you see this and happen to get offended at me not knowing how to spell your name. Seriously.) was like, "No, you cannot have my fries." So it was interesting.
Unfortunately, we did not get to make babies today in science. :( How unfair. But we did do this survey graph thingie to see who in class had the dominant traits and what not. But seriously, HOW IS HAVING 6 FINGERS ON EACH HAND THE DOMINANT TRAIT? Cuz everyone in class had 5. Not 6. 5! Weirded out.
It was SOOOO weird. I had to give Mrs. Hurd this note to excuse me from running in PE and what not and she was REALLY nice about it. It was like someone had a personality transplant... "Okay, Lauren, hang in there. Was it wisdom teeth?" "No, premolars." "Okay. You don't have to run today. You don't want those clots to start bleeding again." And she was totally sympathetic. But then Evonne told me I smelled like hot chocolate. But I don't. Will Smith does.

I love laughing gas

Dude, if they're teaching you not to do drugs in school, then WHY DO THEY GIVE YOU LAUGHING GAS (or happy gas. Whatever) IN THE DENTIST'S OFFICE? I am so ADDICTED to that stuff now!!!! Cuz I had to go to the dentist to get like half my teeth removed (okay, only 4) and they gave me vanilla happy gas. That was pretty much THE COOLEST experience ever. Except then they turned it down and my mouth wasn't numb, so I felt part of the operation and freaked out and started hyperventilating, and then that would make me snort cuz I had my mouth open and then I raised my hand and they were like, "Hmmmm, needs more Advil..." By then, of course, I couldn't SWALLOW!! But then it wasn't so fun anymore, even tho they talked with me about American Idol the whole time, because they made me put these dumb gauze strips in my mouth and make clots and my mouth was numb and my bottom lip was like bigger than Lisa Rinna's and I LOOKED LIKE A WALRUS and it really hurt. So yeah. I'm still kinda bleeding and everything tastes like blood, like in the last Warriors book that I just finished. Except for milkshakes. They tasted okay. And cheese sandwhiches.
Lol, it was funny in science because Mr. Griffith was all, "Okay, don't jump to any conclusions, but tomorrow we're gonna make a baby," and the whole class goes, "WHAT?" But no, it has to do with Punnett squares or something. And flipping coins. Which is fun. I love genetics. But then we have to make our own root beer on Monday. :P Nasty.
HAHAHAHAHA I DON'T HAVE TO PLAY TROMBONE TOMORROW! And I possibly get to skip PE. Hehehehehe. Well, I can't run or do jump rope, anyways. Maybe I can walk the track while everyone plays wiffleball. :( *starts to sing* I'm all alone, there's no one here beside me. My troubles have all gone, there's no one here to deriiiiiiiiiiide meeeeeeeeeeeeeee....butcha gotta have friends!!
MIRACLE RANCH IN APPROXIMATELY 23 HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!

Silly potatoes

So I actually created that last post on Monday, but Blogger was all, "THERE WERE ERRORS," so I decided to post it later, but then yesterday, it wouldn't let me on and later when I was GOING to go on, my mom decided to talk on the phone for like 2 hours. Nyaaah... So now I'm back.
I just realized I'm pretty much bad at all sports. Even the ones I like, and I actually like playing most sports (just not WATCHING THEM). But seriously, I'm one of the girls who makes the team for having "the most heart". Blaaaaaaaah how bout no? Like Coach Chris, one who was not such a positive influence on my life, said, "Lauren's not always going to play center because she's tall." Thankfully he didn't add, "Because she's bad at basketball for the most part but has a lot of heart, so I'll make her cheer you guys on." Only that didn't really happen. But he did say the first part, which was weird, cuz I wasn't even the tallest person on the team. There were two people at least 2 inches taller than me. Ooooh amazing. But everyone else was short. But that was last year. I still have my uniform, tho. I wear my shorts for gym.
But yesterday I played wiffleball. It wasn't so bad, even in the outfield, even tho I ended up on the team where the girls either screamed, giggled, and dropped the ball, or didn't throw it and were like, "I WAS MAKING A PLAY!" when there's no one where they threw it. Uh, first base was THAT way... But today Mr. Griffith was in Yakima (can you believe it, he's moving too! I don't even know where Yakima IS!), so we had a sub and I didn't want her to boss me around during wiffleball, so I walked the track. It's definitely spring in Washington. The sun was all shining and the sky was blue and stuff and these nice but slightly annoying breezes were making my hair like that of the model on the Venus commercial, but then Mrs. Hurd started jogging and I had to run to keep her from catching up. Ouch. While NOT running, Evonne and I talked cuz we were bored. We even started on burgers. I love life. And burgers.
Today we started this poster on China (we already DID one, but now we have to do ANOTHER one on a specific subject) and I'm doing mine on Przewalski horses. But I still don't know how to pronounce that. It's pretty interesting, tho, the only other topics were things like Bhuddism, Confucius or whatever, Shinto, Taoism, and the zodiac. Oh yeah, and pandas and dragons. Which everyone's doing. So I went back to my horse roots.
Speaking of horses, MIRACLE RANCH IN 2 DAYS!!!!! Even tho I'll miss the Gong show dress rehearsal, and can't say that I CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSS 3 SOLID (kay, not solid) DAYS WITH HORSES I'M SO STOKED!!!! And I just managed to sound like gross surfer Bethany Hamilton....there goes my day.
AAAAAAAAAH I have to go put Oggy in bed AGAIN. He will NOT shut up and it's like the 3rd time I've put him in bed, so he CANNOT still think I'm not here. Then I have to go on the library site and check for books. So yeah. Gotta go.

MAYDAYMAYDAYMAYDAY!!!!!

I just realized today was May Day. I mean, duh, it's the first day of May, but that wasn't significant to me at first. Then Mrs. Pomeroy was like, "Oh, it's May Day!" and I'm like, "...so...?" I need to change my calendars. But today was a Monday: really stressful and boring. Actually, not so stressful. But it was good to come home to a new sudoku puzzle no one had done from Saturday and a bunch of comics I needed to catch up on (how did Luann get where it is today? No, literally, I miss like one day and I can't follow the storyline). Luke was being evil and cage obsessed. And I think I caught up on all my missed homework. Which was super easy. Because I read three chapters in 20 minutes from "So Far From the Bamboo Grove" and was still one of the first people done. Honorable Mother died. This book is so boring.
It was really weird, we had to watch this play for the remainder of 6th period and all of study hall about not doing drugs. The guys met this girl named "Addie" after going to the "third floor" and kept going "higher". Duh. You're ADDICTED! No need for an ALLEGORY!!!! And the end was super lame. He's all, "Keep talkin, Dad. It's good to hear your voice." And his girlfriend had a weird name. "I'M MLIA!!" Or something.
I'm currently playing with Silly Putty and it's sticking to the keyboard. And I just listened to the rest of a book on tape (Rachel Cohn's "The Steps") for like two hours ON END. It was pretty bad. But the book was okay. It was just the NARRATOR. "That's GROIT!" That was her idea of an Australian accent. And her TV credits include "CSI"? I hope she played a corpse.
Lalalalalalala can't think of anything to say.......except....AAAAAAH WHAT IS UP WITH THE DORK AT MY LIBRARY? I'm 1st in line for "Party Princess", but that means someone already has it and WON'T GIVE IT UP!! They supposedly have like 3 copies, but if that's true, why are the only using one? Or maybe they skipped me. That one librarian never did like me after I had two cards cuz I lost one in that little Pochaco (sp?) purse and my other one DIDN'T WORK. But I check the library site every day and the only book on hold that's currently at the library is "Desert Dancer". Weeeee...
Wife Swap is on tonight. Except cowboy husband goes mental and is all, "PUT ON YOUR HATS, MEN, WE'RE GOING ON A RAID!" Or not. But he does beat up the other lady's husband. Oooooh...this should be interesting. I better go do something other than getting high ON THE 13TH FLOOR!!! Not like I do. But I shouldn't start. That's what the little play company said anyways.

Fast for Food

That's basically what I did from 12:30 P.M. 4/28/06 to 6:30 P.M. 4/29/06. And let me tell you. It. Was. AWESOME!!!!!!!
Okay, not awesome, but it actually wasn't that bad. At first, it's like, "AAAAAH I'M SOOOO HUNGRY," but then you get used to it after a few hours. And since the whole thing was about helping the hungry, it's like, "Well, duh, this is how they must feel every day." But we got juice every few hours. Which made me go to the bathroom like every 3 hours. But not like you need to know that, sorry.
So I was in the Kangere tribe, I think that's how you spell it, and we got owned at like every single tribe game, but not the Albertson's game and the shelter thing. Yeah. Rock on.
So that was basically our 30 Hour Famine. It was pretty darn spiritually uplifting. I can see why Christians sometimes fast. It's cool. Except for like the last 10 minutes, we were doing communion and I was SOOOOO hungry, my stomach was growling and stuff, and then I launched myself out the doors into a world of spaghetti, breadsticks, and garlic bread. And Fritos. And cake.
Grrrrr I just read Book 4 in the Warriors series. Bluestar is evil, she must die. And Tigerclaw. I'm sorry, Bluestar is just a WIMP. "Oh, I should've done this differently, it's ALL MY FAULT!!" *6 chapters later* "IT'S ALL STARCLAN'S FAULT, I'M GOING TO GO PARANOID AND BE BLUE!!!!!!"
OMG William's watching Extra or something and they're talking about Ace Young (as in self-obsessed girl-like Ace) and he's like, "I'm such and such years old and I'm single and ON THE PROWL." EWWWWWWWW!!!!! HOW STALKER IS THAT!!!! It's like, "STEP AWAY FROM THE CHILDREN!!!!" I'd better lock my doors and close my windows. *shivers in bed* Aaaaah...

We are the Knights of Camelot!!

Yeah, so I had to go to school today because it's the last day of WASL and I am so glad I did (especially since Mom pulled me out after WASL was done). WASL ROX!!!!!! I think I'll actually miss it. Cuz after the test, Paul and I told Alexis about "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and she drew manga picture thingies to illustrate what we told her. There was this one with dancing ghosts of Camelot. Dududududududu, dududu, dududu, dududududududu, dududududu. *dead guys claps* My favorite was a picture not from "The Holy Grail", but the Monty Python show on PBS, where an old lady screams, "I DON'T LIKE SPAM!!!" And Alexis drew this picture of a lady killing a bunny with her cane. Or rather beating one up. Same thing.
It was weird. I saw this kid Noah who used to go to the same school as I did last year, before I changed schools and went to the jr. high. He was all playing hackey sack with these kids and I was like, "I know him...IT'S NOAH!!!" But he didn't recognize me, and no wonder, cuz we weren't exactly friends. *shivers* Gross.
Actually, I should be eating lunch right now. Cuz I usually eat lunch at like 10:10 AM. And it's almost 10:30. But Mom said she might make me a form of dairy product...as in milkshake. :) :) :) YAY!!!! Oh gosh. Now I'm REALLY hungry.
Omg, William's watching TV (he's staying home today, too) and it was Rolly Polly Ollie. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah. "Geeeollie, Ollie Pollie, your stomollie looks rollie!!!!!" NYAAAAAAH!!! But I did the same thing yesterday. Watch pointless Y7 shows, that is. But just not Ollie. Hold up...IT'S "NANALAND", AS IN BEST CANADIAN PUPPET SHOW EVER!!!!!!!! YEAAAAAAH!!!!
Cheating at computer solitaire rox. Just right click. I got a score of 14000. In 52 seconds. So yeah. Right clicking comes in handy.

Blueh

Woke up at 2 AM. Was up for 3 hours, dehydrated and insomniactic (is that even a word?). Then I woke up my parents and puked on my bed. Aren't you glad you go to know this little bit of info? So yeah, I've got the flu and currently have a fever of like 100.2, but I feel AWESOME!! (no joke) I can keep food down now and I get to skip school after last day of WASL, YAY!! But my brain is a little fried from hours of on and off sleeping and "Jakers!". (although watching pigs tramp through Ireland is actually quite relaxing)
About famine: Really confused. My parents were sort of hinting that I wouldn't be able to go (maybe they didn't mean to, but that's what I picked up), but last night, everything was under control and I CAN go. Depending on tomorrow, anyways. It was pretty weird...
That's basically it. I need to check my library account. Cuz I think I MIGHT have "Party Princess" and/or "Size 12 is not fat". Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

A knife would be nice...

Why does my life tend to suck after it seems to be so awesome? I mean, some of it's just little stuff: Alex will NOT get off my back and keeps giving me crap and is all, "What, I was just teasing!" "*trying to kill him* What, I'm just trying to..." And let's not go there. And there's also being really tired, being forced to walk around the track for an HOUR in PE, and stuffs like that. But then there's Mr. Villiers and the latest: no famine. Well, that's not what my parents are saying, but it seems like that. Mostly it's just that I'm disappointed that I'm probably not going to go (didn't I say something about "dropping the bomb" earlier? Hope they didn't read that...), but then again, it's like, "What the flippin heck is wrong with this youth group?" Seriously. At least one pair of parents has a problem with one event, then there's a whole conflict, and the kids (us) try to help, and then the adults are like, "Well, we want your input, but since you have an IQ sigNIFicantly less than mine, I'll modify your idea and make this more complicated." And the whole time I'M supposed to choose sides!!!!! Sometimes, I feel like my parents are TOTALLY overreacting, but this time they're right and it SUCKS cuz everyones going to be all, "You're not going? Oh..." And I'll feel bad. When nothing's my fault. If it were that easy, I'd switch churches. But I can't. And don't want to. But it would be a little bit nice. I remember something said a few years ago that was funny at the time: "It's the summer from hell, ironically at church!" Why does it suddenly apply?
So, while I take some antidepressants, on a more postive note: Yaaay I'm #1 for Party Princess. Woo. *waves noisemaker* Not like I care. And I got "Click here to find out how I survived seventh grade" from the library. "Have you webbed any feet lately?" hahahaha. Ha. haha. Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Party Nerd

NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WHO'S NUMBER 2 IN LINE FOR "PARTY PRINCESS", UM THAT WOULD SO BE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so obsessed, but I can't help it. Meg Cabot has a cult following; they follow her, like a cult. I got "The Challenger", aka next in Phantom Stallion series, and I looked at the cpu JUST before I checked out and it said I also had "Rising Storm" there, which I have been WAITING for for like 2.5 months. But the librarian didn't give it me, so I was like, "???whatever???" And they gave me this book that my mom had put on hold, cuz they saw the same last name, and then were like, "Wait, this isn't your book..." "No, no it isn't..." "Would you like to check it out for her?" "Sure." And I lost my library card, so they made me use my military ID. And it had this picture of me from like 4th grade and I didn't have my glasses yet I don't think, I don't remember. *looks at it* Wait, yes I do, they're just my old glasses. And I had bangs. But I was wearing a cute top. Anyway, back to library, I put a hold on "Size 12 is not fat" and "A Dangerous Path" (cuz I thought I had RISING STORM AAAAH!!), but I'm still #2 in those lists, too. I'll wait.
Apparently George Gershwin died of a brain tumor. That I did not know. I knew he died at 38, just not what he died from. As I was reading his biography, I was all, "Dude, he's buff and totally fit, he can't have died from a heart attack, HOW DID HE DIE?" His brother was cool, and slightly nerdy, so I identify with him more, cuz George Gershwin wasn't so admirable as I thought. :( But he's still a nifty composer. "RHAPSODY IN BLUE"!!!!
I spent the majority of my afternoon at the library and reading a Hilary Duff biography. Sad. And what is up with her nickname, Juicy? I'd rather live as a worm in a pile of poop then be called "Juicy" to my face. I dunno, maybe that's just me. CMM has a weird shaped face.
Another WASL day, BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! But we had a good snack today. They ACTUALLY gave us Rice Krispie Treats. Okay, so they were the cheapo slightly healthy Little Debbie kind, BUT THEY WERE SOOOOO GOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Monique was like, "Do you want mine?" and I was like, "YESSSSS!" Then during break Mrs. Moon let me take the snack boxes back to the cafeteria. And Mr. Johnson stopped me and asked if I had any food. He's cool. Almost makes me wish I'd joined track/baseball/fast pitch. But not totally.
Lunch was gross, I got 2 pieces of pizza and one had like a mushroom on it, so the flavor of the mushroom was burned into the cheese, and I'd gotten the pieces cuz they were like REALLY big and REALLY cheesy, but I don't know what was wrong, maybe the ovens were broken, they tasted GROSS!!!! It was pure cheese. Which is not a bad thing. But fake lukewarm cheese in large doses can be lethal. *shudders* Even the SAUCE was cheesy. Even the CRUST was cheesy. This wouldn't have been a bad thing if it had come from Pizza Hut, but NO! *shudders again* Then I felt really bad cuz I saw this kid who usually sits with friends but he was alone today and he looked kind of bored, and I was like, "Why don't you go sit with him?" and then I was like, "Um, no I'd rather pray for him." Which isn't a bad thing, but then again it's like, "Don't be a wimp." Cuz oooo I'll pray for him this one time and then what he'll be GONE?
After further examination of this ID, I can conclude that I am my dad's X-chromosomed CLONE. Scary, isn't it?

Mr. Clean

So yesterday was an interesting, spent mostly at Amber's house, infused with episodes of "The A-Team" (MR. T!!!!) and going to the theater where I saw the very awesome "Glory Road" to watch "The Wild", which is basically a cross between "The Lion King" and "Madagascar" with all these "Star Wars" references. Pretty weird. And Emily and I were practically puking over the prescence of strawberry ice cream Skittles. They should be labeled "Bulimia pills". Seriously, if you want to throw up, EAT SOME OF THESE, THEY ARE DISGUSTING!!!!
So yeah. I wrote a song about Mr. T. It's basically the Mr. Clean song with the lyrics changed to benefit (yeah right) the dude Rocky beat in "Rocky III", because I am incapable (sp?) of writing my own melodies.
Today: Not good. But not bad. I just kind of lived through it. In science we're going to make our own root beer. :P Gross, how sick is that? To all those who actually like it: You know what process is used to MAKE root beer? Yeah, that's right. Fermentation. NASTY!!!!!
Question: If wine is made out of fermented grapes, what is beer made out of? Fermented beets? Plus golden rich flavor, football players, cheerleaders in sad excuses for uniforms ("It's just a two-piece." "Oh yeah, then why is one piece of you hanging out?"), and alchohol?
Mr. Villiers is leaving us. Forever. Yeah, that's what he told us the start of second period. "I'm going to China." I don't get it. He says it's an oppurtunity too good to pass up, and not everything's about money and he gets free food, and I don't know if he's a Christian or not, probably not, so this might be some sort of a God thing, but WHY NOW? I'm taking ONE more year of band, couldn't you quit then? Or better yet, NOT AT ALL? :( So everyone's pretty much bummed. Except Emory, who's sick. :P But Mr. Villiers said he's calling this dude my brother had as a band teacher when before he became an all important high schooler. Oh boy.
FAMINE IS IN 4 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I'm doing it, that is. I hope I am. And I'm pretty sure my parents are okay with it. Unless they do that last minute "drop the bomb" thing. Which I HATE! Except I don't wanna be in on the whole "no showers" thing at the famine. Deoderant, yes. Toothbrushes, yes. Sleeping bags, yes. Extra clothes yes. Hair straighteners, shampoo, makeup, and hair brushes, NO. I'm actually okay with the whole makeup and hair straightener thing. But I need a shower. Or my hair gets all oily and NASTY and without a hair brush, I will resemble Stretch on NBA street. Eeeeee...
Gotta go, apparently my connection has failed and my post won't post. Bla.

1 Saturday Morning

If it were a Saturday morning and you were EXTREMELY hungry, what would you eat for breakfast?
a. a piece of Pilsbury Spring Cake that you'd made last night and IS ALMOST GONE ALREADY!
b. two scoops of yellow Spring Funfetti Frosting
c. a bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats (with almonds)
Actually, I ate all three. Even the frosting. Which was really good. And I HAD to eat some cake because whenever I make something, someone has like three pieces in the middle of the night and then the next morning there are like three pieces left, so I was selfish and ate some. Lots of sprinkles. But surprisingly, I didn't break a tooth. Yay!
So yep, this is a boring Saturday morning, and I have the women's tea at 1:00, but other than that, I have pretty much nothing to do. Besides clean the bathroom. And get Luke some food. We're actually making progress, he let me pet him without biting or growling first. And, dare I say it, I actually like him. :)
Nathan had this talent show thing last night and he went. Most of the judges thought he was really good (except for the ones who, like me, don't get hip hop, so I felt kinda bad cuz I probably would've given a half hearted score) and this lady asked him to perform at this Hip Hop Church. And I told Amber and she was like, "YES!!!!!" So we're probably going to get someone to drive us (illegally, if possible, like the girl in Sleepover; adds to the suspense.) there and be like, "HEY NATHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And he'll be like, "I don't know them." Then he'll flip his hat to the back and he'll call it a lid. You know what else he did? He stacked books from the floor to the ceiling. Said something about trying to get to heaven... Actually, I should stop there cuz Nathan isn't 11. And that's how the song goes...
Gong show practice RULES! Except Tiffany was trying to pull me into a group hug and I accidentally rammed my foot REALLY HARD into her shoe, so it was all red and swollen, and I was like, "Oh no." But it's not broken like last time, which wasn't her fault either cuz it had nothing to do with her, and basically this time it was my fault. And then Sean was all laughing during LOTR, so I started laughing and the play's supposed to be all serious and I felt sorta bad. Then Jason, as Gimli, fell backwards and kicked the pedestal (music stand) thing over, which was pretty much the awesomest thing ever. And it stunk, cuz Jeannie had brought a video camera, but we didn't get it on tape. And today I'm going to the church again....and I get PIZZA!!!!!

Olivia's subliminal messages

NOT A FRIDAY KIND OF FEELING, WEEK IS OVER, WEEKEND BEGINNING, OR A SUNDAY, FOLLOW MONDAY! NO THIS IS A SATURDAY AND I'M FEELING GREAT, ONE THING LEFT TO DO, TIME TO SAY, "BEAUTIFUL DAY", TIME TO SAY, "BEAUTIFUL DAY, THESE DAYS ARE FEW AND SOMETHING WHEAT? (sweet, maybe) GET ON YOUR FEET AND SING ALONG WITH ANGELS AS THEY CRY THANK YOU FOR LIFE NEVER TAKING ANY BREATH OR ANY SECOND FOR GRANTED, I WILL FAIL YET I WILL TRY!!!
*sniff* I love Olivia. Actually they're really called Olivia the Band, but whatever. So yeah, that's kind of how I felt today cuz it's WEEKEND!!! THREE DAYS IN A ROW OF NO WASL (none on Monday, either! :) School tho.)
So today wasn't so bad. It was writing WASL, but I can't say what it's about cuz the state's all paranoid and act like Harrison Ford is going to steal all their textbooks...BECAUSE HE CREATED THE SECURITY SYSTEM! Weird moment there. Science, I finished my drawing and stuff, and band was cool, but I HATE 3RD LUNCH NYAAAAAH!!!! PE was so boring, it was supposedly a "free day" (we could do basically whatever we wanted as long as we were moving), and I tried playing hockey with some guys, but Daniel was like total control freak and telling me what to do and then Sam was like, "FOUL, TOO MANY BLUES!" so I was like, "Whatever, I'll quit." So I just walked the track instead. Which was way boring. Cuz we had to run or power walk or Mrs. Hurd would catch us and get a zero. Not cool. She walks FAST!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I BEAT "DIAMOND MYSTERY OF ROSEMOND VALLEY"!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! (note: if you haven't played this game and don't want to know the ending, DON'T READ ON!!!!) Yeah, it was Bob and Carla, which wasn't very hard to believe (I'd figured out the Malcolm and Lucy thing anyway, so yeah, it was easy), and they stole the diamonds and ripped of Peter Parker or whatever his name was, the dude that married Kit Grace. Then I'd all put the diamonds in the display case, and she took them out and an alarm went off and closed all the exits. It was funny. But the end's dumb, everyone's at the diner, and Emma's talking about this pirate legend cuz she's an "ace reporter" like that.
"Party Princess" is taking forever at the library. I've been #6 for several weeks. But I moved up to #5 today. YAY!!

If I only had a brain (doo dee doo dee dododo doo)

SERIOUSLY? What is WITH people and heroines with glasses?
For example:
Harriet the Spy had glasses. But not in the movie.
Megatroid (or was is Megatron? I forgot) had glasses (at least before "A Swiftly Tilting Planet"). But not in the "A Wrinkle In Time" movie that I stayed up watching for like four hours when it came out.
This is true of several other books made into movies. SO WHY "HOOT"?
Seriously, I'm reading the book before the movie comes out, because the movie looks okay and if you read the book AFTER you see the movie, it ruins all the unique character pictures you could've come up with. Like me and LOTR. I saw the movies first. Even tho the books are like way better. But back to "Hoot".
BEATRICE TOTALLY HAS GLASSES!!!!!! And CURLY, but not STRAIGHT GIRLY SURFER, blonde hair!!!! And in the movie? Really tan, not so tall (not taller than Roy, anyways), NO GLASSES. Who is this, BRIDGET from "The Sisterhood of the Flippin Traveling PANTS"?
Okay. Now I'm done.
So yeah, I haven't really been on. The last two days haven't been worth commenting on. WASL is boring, as usual, but we got a break from it today. But tomorrow we have it again.
I FINALLY FIGURED OUT "THE DIAMOND MYSTERY OF ROSEMOND VALLEY"! I spent like half an hour looking for cheat codes on Google (and stumbled upon several computer hacking websites that my cpu labelled as "criminal content"), BUT IT FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT!!! I found the poison arrow and went from chapter 4 to CHAPTER 7!!! Which is THE LAST LEVEL! But I didn't finish the game cuz I'd been playing for a while. And Emma has this thing for Malcolm? It's weird. And I convinced Tom to get a haircut. And I think Bob's a criminal. Boo, bad Bob.
I never thought I'd get so addicted to a series. Well, I should've learned my lesson last time with "Jedi Apprentice". I only read those books for a joke, but I got so addicted and they became like my favorite books ever. But this time, it's "Phantom Stallion". Yeah, they're corny, and Sam's a lame character, but it's like HORSE FIX TIME!!! Cuz these people actually ride western. It's not like Saddle Club and Pony Pals (gag, not like I read those anymore) where everyone's all, "Shall we have some tea?" "After I polish my quirt. Cheerio, cheerio!" Don't get me wrong, I like English (which is what I'm going to be doing for 2 solid days at Miracle Ranch in May: ride English. Lucky me. :) Seriously.), but I learned on Western and I like it a little more. YAAAAY FOR THE PHANTOM STALLION!!!!

Flavor: 17

I just watched the end of "Celebrity Cooking Showdown" that Mom taped for me last night after she made me go to bed. Here I was, all rooting for Tony, AND HE UP AND LOSES!!!! At least Allison lost. That made me happy. She was annoying. Cindy was okay, but when Alan Thicke was commenting on her chicken breasts, I was like, "Are you sure those are the breasts you're looking at?" I thought the affagado (sp?) sundae looked pretty darn good, except for the espresso. That's just nasty. Weird: I don't like coffee, but French Silk is like my favorite flavor of ice cream. This is definitely going to be my new favorite show. And it's on TONIGHT!! YEAAAAH! Who needs American Idol when you've got CELEBRITY COOKING SHOWDOWN!?!?!?!?
My grandma sent me an e-mail of optical illusions. I figured ONE out, cuz it was really easy (it was impossible not to see OPTICAL spelled straight across the horizon), but couldn't figure out the other ones. (who know inside the word me, you could spell you?)
Since both my parents were too busy to cook, Mom bought us pizza. It was Pizza Hut, too, so I was like, "YESSSSS!!!" But she wouldn't buy the cheesy bites kind. I'm sorry, I think it looks good. Except for the commercials. That curly haired dude looks like he could be the older brother of someone I know. I bet his name is Ronald. *GASP* HE'S THE SON OF RONALD MCDONALD!!!!!!!!
I am plotting the assassination of my brother, who's now like president of his senior class or something. So I was trying to get him to choke on water/craisins all through dinner, but he wouldn't, which ruined the part of my plan about self inflicted injury. (If he chokes, it's technically not my fault, right?)
I had donuts today. They were squished. And melty. But still kinda cold. Which reminds me of the GROSS discussion we had in science, about McDonalds and their preservatives. (how many times have they gotten sued? Remind me never to watch "Supersize me". My bad, I'll probably have to watch it freshman year. *shudder*) Okay, so I was wrong, they don't give cows hormones to genetically alter their babies into long lasting milk producing FIENDS!!!!! But I could be right. If I'm not, what's with the cow on the Kraft cheese snack packages? Is it some kinda secret code??? "What are you doing?" "Spying on Agent W!"

Sore leg muscles leed to instantaneous DEATH

One of the bridge verse things from B5's "Get'cha head in the game" pretty much describes my thought pattern for this last week, despite my efforts to stop. Except I had to switch all the "she"'s to "he"'s. Cuz I'm a girl. And pretty straight. Pretty darn straight.
Here I am, legs sore beyond belief, munching on a chocolate marshmallow egg. I'd rather've had some of my grandma's pound cake, but there was only a little left, and I didn't want to eat any of my bunny cuz whenever I get an Easter bunny that's Palmer's, I always give it a personality, then feel bad when I bite off his head. Cuz I have an active imagination like that. Hello. So I settled for chocolate egg.
Today was MESSED UP cuz of the WASL. I had to go right to Mrs. Moon's room, where I spend 2 hours of my day anyway, and had to sit behind PAUL!!! But that was okay, cuz we made fun of the so called snacks they gave us. Seriously, FROZEN ORANGE JUICE? In APPLESAUCE CONTAINERS? Weirded out. o_O So we were all, "It looks like a smoothie." "But it's not smooth. Aw man, sucked all the juice out." "That's what you do with popsicles." "Shouldn't we call it an ie?" And random stuff like that. And at the break, Toni and I ate Cheetos.
The rest of the day was WEIRD! I usually have 1st lunch, but lunch today went by your 1st period teacher, so I had 3rd, but I wasn't hungry, and I'm not now either, which is weird for me, I just want JUNK FOOD!!!!!! Then in band, Emory learned a new word ("queer"; it's like, "Hello, as if that hasn't been around for so long already...") and was using it on us, but we either rolled our eyes and ignored him or congratulated him on expanding his vocabulary. To which he replied with another barrage of insults. Whatever.
PE: NOT COOL!! They made us do a cross country AND get 4000 steps!!!!! I did better this time (10:52 as opposed to my 11:14 last time) and got 4282 steps, after walking with a bounce so my stupid digiwalker would work. It's weird: whenever we do digiwalkers, I always manage to end up with a blue one. Not on purpose either. What's wrong with me?
"Snail Mail No More" should so have a sequel, cuz it's one of my favorite books and it's NECESSARY!!!!! I know it's already kind of a sequel, but still, I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HOWIE!!! AND WHETHER HE AND ELIZABETH ENDED UP TOGETHER OR BROTHER AND SISTER!!!!! CUZ IT'S HAUNTING ME!!! EVEN THO I HATE ELIZABETH!!!! And if Little Bo will contract a horrendous disease and destroy the entire population. *shrugs* It would be nice.
Does he think about me, does he feel the same way,
should I go for the three, something something blaaaaa...
Think I'm going insane.
Can't get him outta my brain!

Easter aftermath

Surprisingly, my digestive tract is still intact. Hey, I'm a poet, and I don't even know it. *gag* How lame is that?
TOMORROW IS WASL!!!!!
Pros of WASL week (even tho I've never taken it; having gone to a private school for the last 3 years, I just did "Achievement testing"):
-parents give you junk food for breakfast (OTIS SPUNKERMEYERS!!!)
-chips are permitted for snack time (need my itos: Cheetos, Doritos, Fritos. Cooler ranch = nasty)
-a lotta free time if you finish early
But that's pretty much it. I'm not that excited. It's not like they're giving us a half day LIKE THEY SHOULD!!!!! BLAAAAAAAH SCHOOL BOARD IS EVIL!!!!!!
So I'm pretty much just posting for the sake of posting. I had a lot of stuff to say earlier, but I was a. making sure the holes in my ears hadn't closed up completely, and cleaning them after they swelled from my constant prodding, b. reading my Bible (make time for the Lord, thank you, not have him make an appointment) c. eating (I, dare I say it, am having a "growth spurt", as some of you might call it, and now eat approximately 4 meals a day. It's slowing down, tho, so it might be over soon), so I can't remember any of it now.
"The Chase" isn't as good as "Lion Boy" yet. Slightly boring. Besides, all this Zizou Corder is going to my brain. GET THE ALLERGENIES!!!! NYAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!
William's "Dynasty Warriors" is REALLY ANNOYING right now. "We're falling behind! NOOO! *deep grunt and sigh of pain*" But it's way overdramatic. Which I totally crave. For cartoon characters, they sure no how to get their.....lost it.

HAPP YEASTER!!!!!

Lol that was totally on someone's Myspace. I don't have one, so don't think I do. But seriously, what is with peope's obsessions with Myspace? You just blog, put scary photos of yourself on it, get random people to be your friends and then shun them by putting a selected few in your top 8, and seeing cults of people online obsessed with pretending to be celebrities (so far the cult includes a few Jessica fans, several Paris followers, and a Britney double. that I've seen, anyway. As of like, yesterday)
So, yesterday. No youth band practice, like my dad and I thought, so rather than wait there while the adults practice for a seemingly endless two hours, Mrs. Rarig dropped me off at Jocelyn's and Jeannie straightened my hair. After which everyone at youth group (minus the guys, who could care less) was like, "OMG IT'S ADORABLE!!!!" I thought I looked slightly punk goth. But it wasn't that bad. But I washed my hair this morning (like always, why stop now?) and it's back to curlyish whatever.
Soooooo Easter today....I actually don't want to go on in detail, so read on:
Morning: skipped church breakfast for the first time in like ever in favor of bear claws and oatmeal. Oh yeah, and chocolate. SCORE: got a Big Ears. Mrs. Moon might not like Palmer bunnies, but I do. :) Half his ears are gone already. I'm just past where the left ear (his left, my right; Big Ears', I mean) flops over. So yeah. I consumed a lot of chocolate.
Church: Wore my green striped Montanaan shirt (no offense, Montanaans, I like the shirt) and rocked out to "Your Grace is Enough" on drums. Got freaked out, tho, when I started to play and THERE WAS NO SOUND!!!!! But then they gave my drums sound and I was like, "Phew." Couldn't sing Easter hymns (which, believe it or not, I actually enjoy) with the choir or listen to what my parents said was a really good sermon because I was in NURSERY!!!! It was SO pointless, cuz all the moms of the babies WOULDN'T LEAVE, so they didn't even need me, but I had to miss Easter Sunday anyways? I did get to play with Payton, tho, cuz his mom did leave and came back several times to walk him around and stuff, but he was funny, even tho he almost killed Olivia by sitting on her (accidentally).
Grandma's: Ate Easter lunch (for me, ham, a lot of rolls, chicken, and turkey. And the majority of the Easter candy she gave me. Was kind of weirded out that people have forgotten how much I like horses. Sure, I like ducks, but I've been liking horses FOR A LOT LONGER and I like them a HECK of a lot more than ducks. But I doubt there were chocolate Easter ponies. Oh well. It tasted good. Braeden got a white chocolate/milk chocolate swirl cat. Looked good. But she's too smart to trade. And she's only 5!!!!! Greg has a Johnny Storm (aka HUMAN TORCH) haircut. But it looks good. And little cousins (Brooke and Lachy) are funny, even when throwing tantrums. And they can kind of say words now. Lachlan has moved on from "Baniiiiis" to "NANAS!!!", which he screams at my grandpa and his parents while they're eating banana cream pie. The rest of the day, I just ate a lot of pound cake and tried to read "Princess in Pink" and "Dark Sunshine" while waiting for Grandma's computer to finish installing Printshop so I could blog/look at my library account, but that never happened, so I just played solitaire and attempted minesweeper (her custom setting didn't work. Nyaaaah). Then we left with pound cake, pie/cake stuff, and a few movies we could borrow ("RED BOOTS FOR CHRISTMAS"! MY FAVE!!!! It's like this Lutheran cartoon, and it's hilarious without trying to be funny. Or maybe I just have a sick sense of humor. Whatever). So yeah.
Okay, I know I love to write, but I already have a blog, and that's basically an online journal (omg, journal is THE dumbest word on the history of the planet. Besides DIARY!! I remember when I was like 9 and my stepcousin ((I think that's how we're related, anyways)) Corey was like, "YOU'RE WRITING IN YOUR DIARY!" and I got really mad cuz diaries are for losers. And when I saw a Zorro cartoon and he talked about his diary, I made fun of him till the end of time. That Zorro cartoon was NOT very realistic. Robots were involved and I was like, "WHEN does this take place???? Uh, BEFORE ROBOTS!!!"), and they're pretty, but what use are REAL journals to me? I've TRIED keeping a blog and keeping a NOTEBOOK (I REFUSE to give into your stupid journalish terms!!) and it's not easy. It's one or the other. And I can't just be like, "Oh this one will have my early writing attempts in it," cuz it says JOURNAL ON THE FRONT! That means DAILY RECORD!!!! How bout no? And if I try to write fantasy novels on here, y'all will be like, "Aaaaaaah, she's CRAZY!!!"
Omg, I just reread that. And I take myself way too seriously. Like that girl I once read about who was like, "Oh, I'm so POSITIVELY brilliant, I wish EVERYONE were as smart as ME!" Like I'm really gonna be a novelist when I grow up. Because in like EVERY student textbook on the PLANET (okay, no, that's just college ed texties), they're all, "YOU CANNOT BE JUST A WRITER, YOU NEED ANOTHER JOB TO SUPPORT YOURSELF." And I'm all, "Hello, that's why you get MARRIED to someone who HAS a job!" But in College Ed, they're all, "YOU ARE NEVER GETTING MARRIED, NO ONE IN YOUR PARENT'S GENERATION WENT TO COLLEGE, GET A JOB AT MCDONALD'S CUZ IT IS REWARDING." Which isn't true. Although, I do spend a lot of time saying how I'm never getting married lately. I'm not going like feminist or anything. I just don't really want to. I mean, basic American couple scenario: Man has job. Woman cleans house and BALANCES CHECKBOOK! I don't know HOW to balance a checkbook!!! And when I hear my parents talk about our monthly budget, it takes like 2 HOURS to plan that stuff out!!!! And it's all because of US KIDS!! I'd rather be a loner writer working at a bookstore, thank you. Or a missionary. Or a vet. Darn, I had another job interest in the "Human Resource/Helper/whatever" field, but I forgot. I dreamt about it last night, too. Grrr...

Computer classes

I forgot how much I hate registration. You have to pick your stupid classes and figure out what 1 SEMESTER means, and listen to all the people not so good at math complain, "I REALLY wanna take annual. How do I take annual?" in that really whiny voice of theirs. But for me, it REALLY stunk cuz I couldn't take the classes I've been wanting to take SINCE 6TH GRADE!!!!!! I had to choose between them thanks to the School Board who's like, "Oh, we need more in depth science!!!!" HATE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But what's even worse, is when I had to choose alternatives for my semester long elective, in case the school realized who I was and decided NOT to give me drama for one semester, my parents kept pressuring me to take COMPUTER CLASSES!!!!! That's kind of funny. I mean, I freak out when the least little thing happens to my own cpu. I can't figure out how to put links on my stupid blog. I once did a neopets pet page...after reading over my friend's pages and figuring out how to do stuff and flipping continually back to the manual. But my parents were like, "But I thought you liked HTML?" I do. Just NOT AS A CLASS! I'm not Maddie Finn. My career is mostly likely going to be in the Art and Entertainment (that's what it's called in the high school catalogue, I think) or Human Resources (it's this or human helper or humanity helper or something) catagory. NOT COMPUTERS! That's Nathan. And maybe William. But not me. Especially someone who wants to be a WRITER on something other than composition notebooks, Word, and this blog.
Today: My parents (not mad at them like I made it sound) are mad because I have worship team practice at 4 (PM, no duh) for Easter TOMORROW (I felt kind of bad not going to the Good Friday service. I didn't want to go cuz I usually cry, but then I felt guilty that I hadn't recognized a special part of Easter.) and then at 6 (when worship team is probably gonna be over), I have to go to gong show practice. No dinner breaks. I mean, I know Chase eats before 4, BUT THE REST OF US DON'T!!! So I'm probably gonna get a burger and fries or something. Hopefully a double cheeseburger. Unlike the MALL McDonald's. Grrrrrrr, evil...
AAAAAH I have to practice my LINES!!!!! Cuz I've only spent time memorizing them ONCE THIS WEEK!!!! And I might have FORGOTTEN THEM already!!!!!!!! Can't have that. Actually, I've got Legolas pretty much down pat, but Sayid needs some work, and he has less lines than Mad Max!!!! (I didn't choose my parts, believe me. Well, I sorta picked Legolas. But I thought Sarai meant would I like to play him for that particular practice, cuz no one was playing him, and I'd wanted to play Pippin ((I have the hobbit cape AND he's like the best character)), but I ended up with Legolas. I can still wear the cape, tho. And borrow William's bow. Weeeee...)

Q: a letter I've never started a title with

Just a random thought. AAAAAAAAAAAAH NOT a good day. It went really sloooooooooooooow and the teachers were all freaking out about WASL and I didn't have time to read "Lion Boy" (really good book).
Science: We had a lab today about mebranes being selectively permeable and stuff, bla bla bla, and, omg, ALL THE BLONDE GIRLS IN MY CLASS WOULD NOT LEAVE MY STATION ALONE!!!!!!! Partly because Mr. Griffith was handing out supplies there, so everyone was getting them, but then they were like, "Mr Griffith, I'm done, whaddo I do?" And they said it really WHINILY AND I WAS LIKE, "Kill me now, someone." Then they were supposed to put glucose and starch in some beakers, and, get this, they put ALL the beakers over where I'm TRYING to work and measure water and stuff, AND WOULD NOT GET OUT OF MY WAY!!! So I had to work at a totally different station WITHOUT supplies, and they totally made a mess and EVERYTHING!!! Maybe that's just a pet peeve of mine, but it was REALLY ANNOYING, and if murder were a. not against the law and b. not against the Bible, there would not be blondie alive in that class today. Note: I'm not one of those people who's convinced all blondes are evil/dumb, but if I were, these girls DEFINITELY apply to that rule. It's just a coincidence, tho, the rest I know are nice/normal.
Algebra: Blaaaaa Mr. Jansen is gone for two weeks cuz he has surgery I think? Anyways, we had a sub, and he was nice and all, but he had NO control over the class, and then he was answering these problems TOTALLY WRONG and I pointed that out, but he didn't listen, so I was like, "Whatever, let them fail." (I was in sort of a bad mood then. Not so much now, but it still makes me mad) And then the sub was all acting like Shane was the ONLY smart person in class. Not to brag, but I know what standard form is, unlike the jerk sitting IN FRONT OF ME!!! (not Shane, someone else. Shane doesn't even sit near me. Wait. Yes he does. Not that near, tho.)
And all the rest of school was ALL ABOUT WASL and it was really boring and Mrs. Moon's 1/2 block were asking a lot of questions, so class almost went over and the bell rang and school was over, but we were still talking!!!!!
I'm wearing compression shorts under my jeans. They're actually quite comfortable. And I didn't want to take them off, so I was like, "Sure, I'll wear them until...tonight?" PE: NO DIGIWALKERS, YAAAAAY!!!

Mystery of the month

Sooo......what really IS that substance in Baby Ruth candy bars? It tastes unmistakeably like PEANUT BUTTER, but others have said it is carmel mixed with nougat, but even without the peanuts, it maintains its nutty flavor. I'm going to write.......whoever makes these things and demand an explanation and ten pounds of lime Skittles. "Now these, obviously, are the chloroplasts..." That would be cool. SKITTLE CELL!!!!!!!!
If the stupid library has two of my holds, why did I only get one e-mail? And I can't get them anytime soon. >:O AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!! Bye el losero!!!!!! Lol, that's what I said to my brother. He's going to party with other engineers in Tacoma (party city). So now I have to "babysit" William. Dude, he's 10!!!!! If I'm not getting paid, I'm not BABYSITTING HIM!!! We are staying here TOGETHER ALONE!!!!
So yeah, that's it. OMG OMG OMG I FORGOT!!
American Idol last night: BUCKY GOES DOWN!!!!!!!!! Which I was kinda sad about, but he wasn't THAT good, probably the worst out of everyone. And when Elliott got in Bottom 3, I was like, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! SLIM SHADY!!!" Don't ask... But then they showed videos from the contestants' families and I felt bad about making fun of Kellie cuz she's pretty cute/nice/bubbly, she just isn't that good of a singer. Well, country, she kicks butt. But yeah.
I need to check out "My Praise". Cuz Jeannie and Jocelyn were like, "IT'S AWESOME!!" But they make the word "class" like "cl***". Okaaaaaaaay...

"Stalk you."

"Call me." "Stalk you." Lol that's the line in this movie I really wanna see. It's basically just like like "Bring it on" (which I also need to see), except about gymnastics and not cheerleading.
Movies that have come out that look promising:
"Take the Lead", "The Benchwarmers" (Nathan was all, "I wanna see 'The Replacements,' so he does it, too.), I had more but I can't think of them now.............................................
The freshman have babies. Flour babies. And they're carrying them around EVERYWHERE in pretty patterned baby blankets. Some of them are pretty artistic, and others.....resemble Frida Kahlo. The artist, not the art. It's kind of funny. The guys just shove them under their arms and walk around wishing they were dead, while the girls seriously act like they're babies and take FIVE MINUTES to swaddle their bags of flour. Swaddling babies is hard (I tried it on Lachlan when he was a baby ((now he's 1)) and he kept bursting out of my stupid swaddle), but five minutes is ridiculous. The thing doesn't BURST or CRY, how hard can it be? Maybe it's because they're square. As stupid as it sounds, I really want my own flour baby. I've got a bunch of names saved up over the years (all two of them) and I heard there's a journal assignment involved? Sweet.
Today: short. That's all I have to say. Sudoku today STUNK, it was level 4 and I KEEP MESSING UP!!!!! So I'll let someone else solve it and wait for tomorrow to arrive. Band, we're playing this Sesame Street Showcase, which is awesome, cuz Sesame Street was like my favorite show for a long time. Then came "American Idol", but anyway. Social studies was slightly lame, cuz we're making posters on China, and we couldn't look up facts on our own, we had to listen to pages upon pages of random facts about food, transportation, and wildlife (my favorite). But when Mrs. Moon was reading about food, she had to pause at the part about Beijing's famous FRIED DUCK and Paul screams, "YEAAAAAAAAAAAH!" at the top of his lungs. Aaaah annoying. So, I was like, "Whatever, they eat chipmunks in the Pokonoes." And then later, Mrs. Moon was like, "In Northern China, roast chipmunk is among other delicacies," and Paul blanched. Hahaha loser. I guess. Not really. He's okay when he's not talking about chipmunks, but it's like, GET OVER IT IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO THE WAR IS OVER AND I'M TIRED OF YOUR FILTHY RODENTS! But I wouldn't say that outloud. Cuz Paul's cool. And he has drumsticks to hit you with. Ouch.

Peppermint Orbit

That's what I'm chewing right now. :) No seriously, this stuff is GOOD and I haven't had any for quite a long time. Cuz the stupid grocery stores and comissaries are all, "Um, no, only spearmint and winter mint! *turns around and pops Peppermint Orbit into mouth*"
So today was an interesting day. In science, Mr. Griffith made us do this lab where we'd put Benedict solution and grass in water and blow carbon dioxide (what we exhale) through a straw into the beaker/tube/shot/thing and the solution would turn yellow. Not so. The majority of us blew our brains out, stained our clothes/homework/skin, but nothing happened to the dumb solution. So Mr. Griffith had to get another bottle that finally worked. And tomorrow it's supposed to be blue again. Oooh how scientific!
Man, this gum is good. Um, anyways, algebra. Mr. Jansen: "The possibilities are infinitely many." Me: "...that's like an oxymoron." Dillon and Curtis: "What?" Me: *tries to explain* Dillon: "How would you know that?" Mario: "Cuz she's smarter than you!!!" Aaaaaaaah I love school.
Except for LAR/SS. Not fun. We have to read this book required of all sevvies, "So Far From the Bamboo Grove". It's supposed to be like the BEST BOOK EVER, but I think it's both boring and weird. And, if it's the author's autobiography, WHY DID SHE FICTIONALIZE IT???????
WOOOO AMERICAN IDOL LAST NIGHT!!!!! Aaah that sounded stalkerish. Yeah, I haven't really been interested the past few weeks, but I watched this week. It made me when Mandisa got out last time. >:( She was better than a. Bucky (sorry, man) b. Kellie (YOU MUST DIE!) c. Ace. I thought Chris was good, but WHAT'S UP WITH THE EYELINER? That's a Constantine thing. I know he's a rocker (my dad's word, not mine) and all, BUT IT'S WEIRD!!! Huh...Constantine sang a Queen song...AND WORE EYELINER!!!!!! Ewwwww... I thought Paris was good, too. And Taylor. Simon was on crack or something last night. He likes Kellie (GAAAAAAAAH! Okay, she's Carrie Underwood's evil twin, but Carrie could sing stuff OTHER THAN COUNTRY and SOUND GOOD, but Kellie CAN'T! Last night, she wasn't AMAZING, and Simon was all, "I liked it." Paris comes on and kicks butt. "I thought it was weird." I think Paula slipped some mercury into his Coke.) but no one else. Eeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahh. EEEEEE-GWAAAA-NUUUUH!!!! I like Elliott. His name is spelled a little weird, tho.
Things I don't think I've mentioned: NO SUMMER SCHOOL!!!!!!! I decided to take French next year, cuz I can still take 4 years of it at Oly and stuff. And Advanced Band rox. Registration is tonight, anyways. And then I'm gonna take drama for the semester elective. Rock on. But I had to choose alternates and there was NOTHING GOOD!!!! There was journalism and...kaput. So I just put food sciences, even tho they make you decorate omelets with ketchup and do worksheets where you contemplate the meaning of BREAD KNIFE!!! Thing number 2: FLORIDA WON!!!!!!! THEY KILLED UCLA!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

To do: Further examine museum

HA! No longer stuck in Rosemond Valley game! I went to the museum, talked to Malcolm, Bob, and Annie, and witnessed a break in. Now I'm really far (oooh chapter 3 how impressive) but am stuck at the museum. I'm supposed to examine it "further" but there's NOTHING THERE! And I doubt there are cheat codes for lame little known computer games. I could Google it, tho. But that game is so addicting I don't blog till later now.
Avalon High was good but a little disappointing. It really stressed the whole reincarnation thing. I'm so glad I'm not Hindu. I wouldn't be able to give up meat.
Boy oh boy, I had my first cross country run today. -_- Weeee fun. Not. Actually, it wasn't that bad. Then again, I walked half the time and ended up getting 11:14. Not so bad, an average time, and only 2 minutes under an A for girls (guys have to get under 7 minutes for an A. hahaha. I don't know what they're so mad about. It used to be 6.). But, then again, I had all my friends, guys and girls, asking, "WHAT'D YOU GET? I got 6:59!!!" Rub it in.
Aaaaaaaaaah pizza at lunch was REALLY GROSS! The lunchladies must've known I was coming and hurriedly hid all the pepperoni and cheese under the counter. Which leaves Hawaiian (ew) and special (double ew). So I had to get a piece with a few peppers and a mushroom on it. Picking them all off didn't help. I CAN'T HELP IT IF I'M PICKY! It's genetic...I think. So are free earlobes...but mine are attached, even tho free earlobes are the dominant gene. I love genetics. But it's like, come on people, get with the program. YES, my hair is naturally curly, IT'S CALLED GENETICS!!! Other peeps: I dunno, looks like a curling iron to me!
Yeah, that's basically it. Life is boring right now. And I'm reading a book called "Spy High". Main character: uses hot girls and TOTALLY FULL OF HIMSELF LIKE ACE!!!!!!! More later (yeah right).

Back to school

I hate school. Actually, today wasn't so bad, but I was bored out of my wits. It seemed to go really fast, tho. Which was weird. But cool. Now Paul is obsessing about ducks. He says he's still "loyal to the chipmunks" (hello, war is over, ding dong, anyone home?), but now it's impossible to get a serious answer out of him. Me: *attempt to hurt him after he insults me* Paul: YOU'RE A VIOLENT DUCK!!! Mrs. Moon: Paul, what do you predict is going to happen in "Jason's Gold"? Paul: He's gonna find a colony of ducks and kill them. AAAAAH it's annoying. But not as annoying as what happened to me this morning.
So okay, you know how you're walking/riding/being driven to school and you're tired and are kind of moving automatically? Annoyed? Tired? Wishing school was a place where you sat in big warm beds and drank hot chocolate 24/7? Does your mood improve any when a really ANNOYING/REPETITIVE song get's STUCK IN YOUR HEAD??? Oh, yeah, it gets better. I like the song "Stick to the Status Quo", but not at 7 AM. And especially not when the SAME PART keeps repeating itself OVER AND OVER IN YOUR HEAD!!!!
This is not what I want, this is not what I planned, and I've just got to sa-ay I do NOT understa-and! Something is really (something's not right!) really wrooong! And we've gotta get things back where they belooong! WE CAN DO IT!! (Gotta play, bla bla bla bla bla) WE CAN DO IT!! (Hip Hop HOORAY, bla bla bla bla bla) WE CAN DO IT!!! (Creme brulee, keep your voice down low) Not another sound, not another word, something like that... EVERYBODY QUIET!!
This is when it repeats. Again and again. Enough to cause suicidal thoughts to pop up into your head.
For once Meg Cabot has written a book BESIDES Princess Diaries that I like (All American Girl was okay, but the second one was disappointing). "AVALON HIGH" RULES!!!!!
Blaaaaaah, new cpu game DOES NOT! I'm totally stuck after getting a hair cut from Debbie, AAAAH it looks REALLY bad, but no one's at the office that will talk to me AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!! I tried starting over, but my cpu killed the game and I didn't get to save. :(
I have science homework. And registration. And talk to my parents about missions/Late Night. And reading homework. And practicing (grrrr...). In short, I gotta go.

Winnie the Horse Gentler

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah the stupid library supposedly has NO books in the "Winnie the Horse Gentler" series by Dandi Daley Mackall. They have her OTHER books, but not THIS series. It's not THAT recent. 2002 at latest. AAAAAAAH IT BOTHERS ME!!! They might have some old copies at Joy and Peace. Or something. I hope. I haven't exactly been following the series, so I reread #1 today and need ALL the others. I know some of my friends have some. Maybe I could borrow them......
Blaaaaaaaaaaah had to change the rabbit in new clothes. And I had to wear old sweatshirt over them so they wouldn't be "soiled". It made me look like a dairy maid/boat.
So we went to lunch with my grandparents today at Red Robin. There was an egg on my burger. I didn't think it was so funny. And I made everyone mad by drooling over the VERY realistic pictures of milkshakes. It's not MY fault! The waitress was all, "Did y'all save room for dessert?" YESSSSS! But Mom and Dad produce the funds on which I live. :(
"THE DIAMOND MYSTERY IN ROSEMOND VALLEY" ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!! It's either the sequel or prequel to "Legacy" (I think prequel: Annie works in a diner and it's like, "HeLLO, you totally have your own ranch/stable/whatever.") and it's about Emma, Annie's sister, and you have to do mysterious stuff as an undercover reporter. At first I couldn't figure out how to dust, tho, and got really mad. Then I discovered the items button, which is "I". So then I featherdusted porcelain cats and listened to a turban wearing senior talk about their daughter's husband slurping sherry. And people at the museum were stalking me. Minus the Japanese tourist, who, in my opinion, the gamemakerdudes were kind of stereotypical about. "Um, do you know where there's an empty display case?" "The cookies will be served at 9." Lol, that's not what he said, that's actually a line from "The Lizzie McGuire movie", but you get the idea.
I'd like to go to New York. Hahaha like that's ever gonna happen. But I wanna go on a missions trip this summer and since I can't go on the youth group one, I wanted to go to NY (thanks to the awesome missions catalogue) and throw block parties and stuff, but it was 1.6 k. And I don't have a job. And won't for a long time. :( My life long aspiration is to be Dave Chapelle...as in throwing block parties. But not getting them made into R-rated movies that 13-year-old duck obsessives want to see but aren't allowed to.

$1.08: exactly enough for a McDonald's burger

In my state anyway. :( I can't believe it's almost the end of Spring Break. Not cool. I WANT TO SLEEP IN!!! Okay, I've been TRYING to get up earlier each day, but it hasn't worked so far. I end up sleeping in an hour. :( Except for yesterday. I woke up at my first alarm and was wide awake. Scary... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I GOT "HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL"!!!!! The soundtrack, anyways. BUT IT'S AWESOME!!!!!! Sad: "Bop to the Top" is actually one of my favorite songs. Except for the weird dialogue in a foreign language (okay, duh, I KNOW it's Spanish, but it's SO WEIRD!!!). If we ever did "High School Musical" at school/church/other, I'd make a much better Sharpay than Ashley Tisdale. Who does she think she's kidding? Except for the weird Spanish dialogue. THAT was disturbing. And weird. And what was up with her OUTFIT? But I like all her songs way better than DUMB GABRIELLA'S and they're all in my range, which is like 1.4 octaves. Ooooh, impressive! Not. -_-
Soooooooo I was totally at the Oasis Cafe (I'm pretty sure that's what it's called) today helping them with their library. Warning: sorting biographies is harder than it looks. But fun. But I didn't eat lunch and was there for like 3 hours and got so hungry staring at the barista action figures (they actually had one. It was scary, tho. And I don't like coffee.) and luscious fudge caramel chunk gooey thing brownies or whatever. But then my mom picked me up...and drove me to the MALL so she and Nathan could find clothes for Easter. But whatever, I got a burger. It wasn't a double cheeseburger cuz MALL MCDONALDS' STINK AND DON'T HAVE DOLLAR MENUS!!!!!!!!!!! but it was delicious. As always. I don't see what Micheal Moore doesn't like about them. Or vegetarians.
OMG I was just in Waldenbooks and I didn't look for the new Maddie Finn, which SUPPOSEDLY came out in like February, but I can't find it. And there's another new one, but the description was all talking about turtles bringing Maddie true love and I was like, "NOOOOO WHAT ABOUT HART?" I am truly obsessed. Oh yeah, I saw all these new books at Waldenbooks, but then went on the library site to put them on hold (I'm broke and they're all like $17 each), AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe cuz they're new. Whatever. But I REALLY wanna read "Bad Kitty". Not the picture book. Yeah.
I found out I was wearing the cat hat wrong, so that's why it looked like a cat hat, but I switched it around and I STILL think I'm wearing it wrong. Whatever. I'll live.

"You don't have to look good; you just have to wear this shirt!"

Lol, that's what I said to my brother at Coldstone today. Yet another person was all, "Dude, I love that shirt. Rock on. Bed peace," because of my apparently super awesome "Nerds Rule" shirt. Well, they didn't say the last part. Anyway. But seriously, all these people cry happy tears of joy at this black tee that speaks true the words of...I lost myself. And they all come up and admit that they, too, are a nerd or find them attractive... So slightly awkward there.
Okay, I know I'm obsessed, but WHO'S GETTING THE "HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL" SOUNDTRACK? MEEEEEEE!!!! YAAAAAAAAY! I was listening to it today at Barnes and Noble and they didn't change my favorite song like EVIL B5 DID! DROP DEAD! GRRR! Cuz they were all wimpy and decided not to add the whole team screaming thing. Never mind.
Wow, I had no clue the new Princess Diaries book was out already. YAAAAAAY! I put a hold on it at the library since it was like 17 bucks and I only had a small fraction of that. (fine, $10.) But I'm the 14th person in line!! GAAAAAAAH! People at my library are so dead SLOW! I've had a hold on "Rising Storm" and "Life, Love, and the Pursuit of Freethrows" for like 2-3 weeks and I'm still 2ND IN LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Annoying... Speaking of libraries, Seattle's new library ROX! I couldn't find any books in the teen section, tho. :( They were all like, "4 mil ways to lose your virginity" or weird fantasy novels that disappoint me greatly (excuse me? no mythical creatures? Just scary fairies that drink blood and ((literally)) wrap themselves in darkness.) But I found a paperback of "Princess in Love" (which I've only read like 20 times) and read that for an hour and a half. But it was all good.
"Insaniquarium" rocks the gaming world. So does "Super Granny" (save the cats! Help! I've fallen and I can't get up!) and "Barnyard Invasion" (abduct cows? Sweet.). I want them all, but they're like 20 bucks each, which is pretty cheap, but I'm broke except for my ten which I'm SPENDING soon and we have to order, which means another 8.50 or whatever. I could so become a banker. I think. As long as I didn't drool on the 100 dollar bills. :(

Sleepless in Seattle

So, yeah, that's where I'm going today, even tho I have to leave in like 9 minutes after brushing my teeth and putting on Cons and stuff. Aaaah William got a new game ("Dynasty Warriors") and it's really shrill and my ears hurt.
Lame. My mom picked up "TTYL" from the library cuz I'd put it on hold. Gaaah total dud. The book totally portrays this Christian teacher as a predator and it's like, "Thanks a lot!" Then again, the author was totally pro-stuff I wouldn't be proing. *glares* I think that's why everyone likes "The Da Vinci Code" so much. They're all, "YESSSSSSS WE CAN FINALLY DISPROVE CHRISTIANITY!" Cuz that's what the movie's basically about. "No, it's about a code in the Mona Lisa!" "Hahaha, so you think! *looks at movie blurb* AHA! SEE FOR YOUR SELF!" "*reads* A movie where Bla bla Whats-his-face and sexy French partner discover origins of Christianity. Oh..." "Oh, guess what: I actually didn't come up with the term 'Christian'. That would be you guys." Which is true. Grrrrrr, ticks me off. >:( Though my saying this only makes people madder, and I know I'm not helping and I'm kinda getting in your face like I say people do to me, but it's sometimes like, "Give me a break."
"TAKE THE LEAD" CAME OUT TODAY!!! YAAAAAAAY I WANNA SEE IT! But A&E said it was lame. Then again, they said "Sky High" was dumb and "Brokeback Mountains" was the best movie they'd ever seen. So I do have a chance... I also wanna see "The Benchworkers". Lol, "Benchwarmers", whatever, but A&E said it was probably dumb since there wasn't a screening prior to opening day. Hey, I actually look forward to this on Fridays.
So I gotta go. My toes are cold.

"I saved ya, little buddy!"

Note: If you're at the theater, craving Skittles, or are about to buy Skittles because it's a movie theater tradition that you have with...yourself, and the giant bag ripping $3.50 out of your pocket says, "Limited Edition Strawberry Ice Cream Flavor Inside", DON'T BUY IT!!! Stick with Poppables or something! I swear, strawberry ice cream Skittles are the NASTIEST things I've ever had. Don't get me wrong, I like the regular strawberry kind, but these were DISGUSTING! They were all creamy (like those disgusting smoothie ones) and I could seriously feel it MELTING DOWN MY THROAT!! So I spent the better part of "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown" digging through my reclosable bag of Skittles, trying to identify good from bad, and throwing the gross ones back in the bag. I happened to mistake strawberry ice cream for orange and lemon several times. Not pretty. Then I dropped like an 8th of the bag. :P But in the end, there were no more good Skittles to be found, and Emily had said she wanted the strawberry ones, so I willingly gave them to her. They resembled kidney beans...they were a sickly pinky color...
The movie itself wasn't so bad (note: if you haven't seen this and don't want the ending spoiled, DON'T READ ON!!!), even tho the basic point of the whole movie was, "Don't leave your herd! They need you!" and stressed heavily on animal diversity. Kind of like Tobymac. Except he stresses on HUMAN diversity. But there was much violence, thanks to scary alligator/whale/giant turtle four legged octopus creatures that traveled underwater and ate turtle like things. And then there were the puns involving language: "Dam (haha, the dam is bursting, get it! Although I doubt he meant it in that sense. Even tho he was a beaver...with a horn on his head.)!" "'Burro' is just a nickname. It's techincally called a wild ass." Stuff like that. Queen Latifah actually made a pretty good mammoth. But I saw most of the espursions on her butt coming. "Well, you're...attractive." "What about me is attractive?" "Well...your...butt!" And then Sid is ALMOST adopted into a tribe of mini Sloths, but then Diego is all, "Sorry, he has a prior commitment. His herd needs him." THAT, I think, was a very SELFISH move on Diego's part. Even tho he is a saber tooth tiger and is not to be reckoned with. Then it turns out that there's NOT two mammoths left on the Earth; THERE'S 2,000,000,000!!!! Well, probably not, but there were a lot, which makes me wonder where they were before. Were they HIDING? And there was this whole BIG tree think that serves as the boat when the valley floods, and it reminded me of the ark, and then I was like, "Wait! Big flood? Big boat? Lots of animals? They juts practically ADMITTED Noah happened!" The Bible IS copyrighted, you know. Get your own stories. SCRAT ALMOST DIES!!! Don't get me wrong, I WANTED him to die. I was really tired of rodents obsessing over acorns by the second stunt. Then he drowns and goes to nut heaven...but Sid saves him and Scrat gets mad and starts doing kung fu. Yeah.

The meltdown

I'm about to have a meltdown. I ate breakfast roughly 40 minutes ago, even tho I've been up for more than 2 hours. I have to practice trombone for a very long time (45 minutes IS a long time!). Luke still needs exercise (I've decided he's only sometimes evil, judging by the wound on my wrist that bled for like 4,000,000 hours, almost convincing me that I have VON WILLEBRAND DISEASE! But I don't. Note: VW is also found in animals. He was being extremely cute yesterday...even for him.). I have to read or I'll fall over dead from boredom. And there's a level 1 (or so it says) SUPER HARD sudoku puzzle on the kitchen table from Saturday that NEEDS SOLVING!!!!!! I hate to say it, but sometimes I can't wait for school.
Maybe typing in green will make me feel better. No. It just hurts my eyes.
Blue? No.
Orange? I use it too much.
Pink. Oh gosh, no.
Aaaaah, scary goth nail shade of blue...me like.
I'm going to see "Ice Age 2" today! Yaaaay! Sorta. I don't find Skrat all that funny. I've only seen the trailer 20 times and it's like, "Hahaha. Hahaha. Give me a break." And Queen Latifah is playing a crazy mammoth. If I were her, I'd choose someone other than Ray Romano as a costar.
I made snickerdoodles last night. Wow, it even sounds weird. Doodles. That snicker. But taste good. It's actually harder than it sounds. I had to roll each individual perfectly round ball of yellowish dough in two tablespoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Then I ran out of sugarcinnamonstuff and had to make more, giving me WAY more than I needed, so there's a batch of cookies that is nearly BLACK with cinnamon. I need a new color, this one's dumb. They're good, tho.
I still haven't seen the end of "Ms. Congeniality". I brought that up due to the fact that we went to the library yesterday and got it on DVD. But we only get it for 7 days. :( Do I really want to read "A Conneticutt Yankee in King Arthur's Court"? Because it's REALLY long and there are other books I want to read/listen to (I seriously got like 4 books on tape/CD). But I liked the Whoopi Goldberg version of the movie... Only that was called "Camelot" or whatever and that dude had a MULLET! It was worse than David Couliers. Eeeeeeeeep.....

Mrowr fttt

Right now I'm wearing a hat that makes me look like a cat. Hence the font color. I like it, don't get me wrong, but it feels weird and and makes me look like I have CAT EARS! *sculpts ear out of hair* Mrowr! *sculpts another ear* Mrowr!
Okay, back to business (gaaaah that font was driving me CRAZY!). My evening concluded with a three hour movie marathon. Okay, so we only watched two movies, do you really have a problem with that? Lol, I'd forgotten how dumb "Sleepover" was. AND SEAN FARIS IS IN IT!!! EWWWWWWW! EWWWW! Sean Faris...as in "YOURS, MINE, AND OURS" BROTHER! It was like the dream I had where assorted members of my church were part of my immediate family and HE WAS MY OLDER BROTHER!!! AAAAAH! I'm sorry, is it just me, or is he NOT VERY ATTRACTIVE? I don't think so! And apparently Katija Pevec (aka Christina Beardsley, William Beardsley's sister in "Y, M, and O") is in it ("Sleepover"), too, but she has NO LINES! Seriously, all the pleathers have at least one line (even brunette girl), but Katija DOESN'T! She just walks around with a frosted lip gloss sneer and a really disgusting fake tan. PETER IS A STALKER! "What, are you playing hard to get?" "NO, I'M JUST GETTING AWAY FROM YOU!!!"
Dare I say it, I actually enjoyed "Chicken Little". Sure, he had a lot of issues for a cartoon character, but it was semi-funny. Even though aliens didn't start attacking till like the last third of the movie. And then the main conflict was getting "closure" with his dad and returning Kirby to his parents. Little known facts: Kronk is the voice of the alien policeman dude. Runt was played by the blondie from "Sahara". (funny, I hated that movie, but I liked this one. In this one, he was actually funny. Better than, "HAHAHA! OCEANOGRAPHERS DYING IN THE DESERT! HAHAHAHA!")
Soooooo it's technically the second day of Spring Break and I am slightly bored. It's already 1:15, which is like...crazy. I woke up 3 hours ago. :( I need a schedule. Although tomorrow I'm going to see "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown". Yeah. Weeeee. Fun. But I'm going to the library today for more books. And I have to practice. But mi madre is providing burgers. Hallelujah.

A weekend to remember

Hahaha, exactly the opposite. Spring Break, so far, is looking...boring. I mean, I love sleeping in, reading books, and getting to random things like eating breakfast at 4 AM (I have NOT tried this, Mom, I'm just saying this because it's random). Which totally reminds me of that unforgettable beer tune about burritos... But I'm one who needs and craves schedules. However, things are looking up: we rented "Sleepover" and "Chicken Little" for tonight (why watch NCAA? You know who's going to win...); possible Gong Show practice; going to SEATTLE THIS WEEK!!!! So yeah. We're good.
Blaaaaaaaaah, we saw "Narnia". It was a matinee, so EVERYONE in the state of Denmark was there. It was crazy. There were like 45 kids who lived there (not at the theater, in that area, which I'm not at liberty to say. If I did, I'd have to kill you.) WITHOUT PARENTS yelling, screaming, throwing popcorn/Skittles/younger siblings, spilling soda, and taking FOREVER at the snack line. My mom was seriously in line for like 30 minutes. And all the kids in front of her were like, "...*drooling* What do I get?" WHAT DID YOU WANT HALF AN HOUR AGO? And I saw a girl from my school, but she either 1. didn't see me 2. didn't recognize me or 3. recognized me, scowled, and ran away. I have that effect on people. But the movie was good, even tho I left wanting to kill Anna Popplewell. Seriously, what is her problem? Did she sit on a burning wok? What put her in such a bad mood. "IT'SSSS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!!!" And then she ends up NOT LIVING IN NARNIA! I mean, did I just say that out loud? *looks around, hoping people who have not read "The Last Battle" haven't heard* I still think Tumnus is a babe.
Apparently I have enough band music to last 30 minutes of INTENSE practice. Intense workout. Lol.
Random comment: I've had to wear my "scribble" Cons every day since Saturday cuz my other ones are contaminated. Dirty. Covered in dog syrup (corn syrup, that is). Yeah. Just thought I'd share that with you....

Twas beauty that killed the beast

A line from the very stupid "King Kong", which I watched last night. I've seen way better movies at age 6. Such as "The King and I". The cartoon version. Yeah, that's how dumb this movie is. And we watched the Cleanfilms version, which made the movie pause and replay scenes every 5 minutes, and while there was little to no language, there was the same amount of violence. Did I really need to see Andy Serkis get eaten by worms? AND KING KONG KILLED MR. HAYES!!!!! While everyone was sobbing at the death of the great gorilla, I was screaming in jubilation. "YESSS! YESSSSS!! FINALLY!!!!!" And then Emily's mom was like, "Wow, you were very emotional about this movie." And what was up with Jack Black? Sure, he's funny, but he can only play one character: a greedy money loving freak. He got the cameraman killed. And his name was Carl. Blaaaaaaah...
I am having (so far) an uneventful day and it will probably continue that way. I just have to practice for like 45-60 minutes (at least I have music now. Hahaha, Matt's playing "Cartoon Symphony".) and finish "All American Girl", which I'm reading for like the 7th time, and start "The Secret Language of Girls". Funny, it doesn't feel like Spring Break. I hope we go to Seattle some time during it, tho. And eat at Rocket Burgers. They have good BBQ ranch.
I have splinters in my hand. Well, I did yesterday. I got them rubbing my hand across an old wood box while chasing Luke. Then one popped out while I was taking a shower this morning. Ouch.
I FINALLY GOT MY HOLDS FROM THE LIBRARY! Actually, I only know that one of them is currently at the library, and I probably won't get the other to for 2-3 weeks. :( Cuz one of them my friend has and she doesn't go to the library very often. So I don't know when she's going to turn it in. :( I still plenty of good books tho.
