2009-02-26T18:34:00.000-08:00

i cried when i saw this video :,)

i also can't breath. i hate being sick.

if they don't get rid of "coach" next week on survivor, i'm gonna be really mad. he's a soccer coach but he doesn't seem like it. at all. PLUS, he said that he hated it when people talked about him behind his back, and then he did it himself! he should know that that's what you do in survivor, it's part of the game. i just don't like him.

well, i guess that's it.

off to watch 30 rock

You Are 52% Shy

Although you live a pretty normal life, you tend to be a fairly shy person.
Many situations make you feel uncomfortable, and you sometimes find your shyness hindering your life.
You can survive daily life just fine, but you don't go out of your way to be social.
Watch out. You may end up missing out on some advantages that extroverted people have.

yeah, pretty much

i just liked the picture xD

Your Brain is 73% Female, 27% Male

Your brain leans female
You think with your heart, not your head
Sweet and considerate, you are a giver
But you're tough enough not to let anyone take advantage of you!

sure?

You Should Live in Massachusetts

If you don't want to live in Massachusetts, you might also consider:

Connecticut
Ohio
New Jersey
New York
Rhode Island

new york! new jersey! haha

GAME.

omigod, i'm sooooo sorry i haven't posted in forever!! i love to have a blog and express myself through it, don't get me wrong. but sometimes, i'm just NOT in the mood to post anything.

but then, i'll be like alana, where i'll write this whole long post, and then i'm like, "i can't post this" xD

but anyway, i reaaaally love this layout. FINALLY. hopefully i'll keep it for a while.

by the way, if you notice any typos, sorry. i can't type write not and it's really annoying me.

aaaaaaand, there's a game tomorrow and i can't wait! *jumps up and down* but some people won't be there :(

well, i went to sara's birthday party on saturday and i had an absolutely fantastic time. it was awesome.

i did really well in gymnastics this week. i guess two weeks break helped. i got looots of compliments from my coach, billy.

also, happy early valentine's day!!

i'm also having a "valentine's-ish" party for some of the EALC. it's on the 20th and i can't wait! it's gonna be so much funs. :D and, people who won't be at the game tomorrow, will be at my party.

ben slept over last night after 4-H. it was SO nice out yesterday! i can't wait until spring!!! i want it to hurry up.

at 4-H, we walked to the animal shelter, and this cat i was playing with was so sweet! i named her bliss. she was so adorable. if i could get a cat, i would get that cat. and, there was this dog, he was a husky mix, i think? he was white. he was beautiful. and, he just wanted attention. i feel so bad for him. we were giving him treats, but he didn't want them, he just wanted love. he kept pressing his body on the the fence, because he wanted to be pet. the ben's family is thinking of adopting him! they're bringing brava (their dog) to the animal shelter tomorrow to meet him. and i'm pretty sure that if brava likes him, they're gonna get him! and i'm so happy!

well, i'm gonna go write another post for kami. byes!

p.s. SURVIVOR STARTED!!!!!

yay for scanners!

2009-01-29T12:32:00.000-08:00

this is my oh so prettyful picture that i drew :)

i actually *like* it!

oh crap, alana's gonna yell at me now >.<

she hates it when i say bad things about my drawings

i also hate it when she says bad things about her drawings

am i babbling too much? i think i am

if anyone has anything bad to say, like, "it doesn't have elbows" or "her nose doesn't match the eyes" or "it's scary" KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. i get too much of that from my brother, i don't need it from my friends and random people.

oh! and i have one more thing, this one, katie t says "it's cute" while thinking and bleeding 'i have nothing good to say about it cause it sucks'

that's all i ask :)

well, my story, isn't really a story. it's more of just the blog of a teenage girl.

anyway, i hope everybody's enjoying it :)

i might as well put my other drawing up too. *sigh*

it's not as good cause i can't draw guys (shut up, alana) and i used really sucky pencils.

i kinda like it, but it could be better if i had better pencils.

well i'm gonna go and play some games. byeeeee

yesterday i went to alana's house and slepped over. i used her pencils, and i drew something that i actually like!

we think it would be a really cool movie poster for a movie [[or book of course]] called "Running in High Heels".
it would be about [[i think, i'll talk to her about it]] a girl who loves to draw and write, she is mostly in her own world, doodling and sketching out random things.

we saw twilight together earlier. it was so much fun making fun of that movie! xDD i have to say it was better then i thought it would be. i don't know if i'd see it again though.
every scene, i would say something from this twilight trailer spoof.
note: if you haven't seen any of the trailers [[or the movie]] before, watch them before you watch the spoof or it won't be very funny. [[i speak from experience]]

i always laugh so hard at that!

2009-01-16T12:55:00.000-08:00

as soon i'm done posting this, i'm going to pyzam to get a new layout. i'm so bored of this one.

so, wednesday i went to 4-H and after i spent the day at ben's after. then we went to my house [[he went to karate]]. he slepped over that night, then he spent the next day at my house. then i went to gymnastics.

omigod my computer works now!!!! i'm is sooooo happy!!! i finally don't have to sign out of stuff when i'm finished! haha.

alana and her family are coming over tonight at 7:00. i can't wait ^.^
we're gonna have an extra-specially funtastic time tonight!!

so far i'm seeing shows at my friends' schools. i'm seeing the sound of music at damien's school [[hi damien!]] and i'm seeing fiddler on the roof at dan's school [[hi dan!]]

there's also a game tomorrow. yayz! i can't wait to see everybody! and you people better glomp me!!!! [[that means you!]] okay, pretty much no one who goes to the games reads my blog. so it's probably really pointless to talk to them through it. teehee.

Your Word is "Peace"

You see life as precious, and you wish everyone was safe, happy, and taken care of.

Social justice, human rights, and peace for all nations are all important to you.

While you can't stop war, you try to be as calm and compassionate as possible in your everyday life.

You promote harmony and cooperation. You're always willing to meet someone a little more than halfway.

What's Your Word?

that seems like me ^.^

You Are a Hooded Sweater

You are active, casual, and laid-back.

There's not a pretentious bone in your body. You are very humble.

You have a very giving spirit. Whether you're dealing with friends or strangers, you tend to ask very little of people.

You are honest and open. You believe that if you are truthful with people, they will be straight with you.

What Kind of Sweater Are You?

i like hooded sweaters :)

You Attract a Capricorn

When down to earth, responsible, loyal Capricorn meet you, they've met their match.

You are as ethical as Capricorn, and they respect your values.

You are also able to be a loyal and caring partner to your Capricorn, even when times are tough.

You are there to cheer up or motivate your Capricorn - which never goes unappreciated.

What Sign Do You Attract?

i liked this quiz :3

bored :P

*please insert series of very bad curse words of your choice*

*bleeeep*

my camera broke!! WHAAAAAA!!

something hit it and the display got totally messed up. my dad said it's unfixable, but even if it was it would cost way more then a new camera D:

SAD!!!

the camera itself still works but you can't see a thing.

i hope i can get a new camera soon. but wether i'm paying for it or not i don't want it to be too expensive.

GOOD MORNING BALTIMORE!!

2008-12-30T20:23:00.000-08:00

ahh, i love baltimore. it's such an old, historical town. it's beautiful.
i got a new coat the other day. we went everywhere, marshall's' burlington coat factory, and a bunch of others but we couldn't find a coat that i liked and was also a good price. so we go to target i picked up the first coat i saw, i loved it. plus, it was only $39.99!
yesterday [[i think]] my dad and i went to edger allen poe's grave sight. i got some very artistic photos, so when i get back [[if i remember]] i'll post my favorites.
my mom and i saw a christmas carol at toby's dinner theater. i loved it so much!
i'm pretty tired so i'll just tell you the movies i've seen recently (in no particular order):
sleepless in seattle
mrs. winterbourne
silence of the lambs
fargo
it's a wonderful life
miracle on 34th street [[the ne one from the '90s]]
double jeopardy
the original hairspray [[not all of it]]
legally blonde

okay, well, if i think of any more, i'll add them.

White Houses lyrics meaning

2008-12-08T20:29:00.000-08:00

i didn't know what the lyrics meant at first, so i looked it up on google and i found the meaning. :)

it really is a beautiful song.

here's a video with the lyrics:

and here's the meaning:

The song is about a summer intensity program, like a summer camp-type thing that hardcore ballerinas do in preparation to begin to dance professionally, as she was on track to do. They are usually held on a campus, in nicer, sorority-type dorms (the White Houses). She's talking about her new ballerina buddies she met, that's why she's "too thin". They have fun and party and meet boys, but are also highly competitive with each other- (Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her). Since most of these girls spend hours a day dancing, they don't attend regular school, and spend a lot of time with older boys, so hense, her first sexual encounter.

tomorrow my mom and i are going to Plato's Closet to shop for a few things. then we're going to the teen gathering thing at Starbucks. yuck, Starbucks. i don't like coffee and i don't really think their drinks are that good. they're okay. i mean, i'll get one, but i'm not like in love with them.

then on tuesday, i'm going to the mall with her to go to a few stores. i'm gonna get red hair dye from Hot Topic and hopefully Converse from Journey's.
