Mourning

Quote of the day: Cancelled, due to lack of interest.

Yes, well, my parents are home, and I'm very happy about that.

Nothing really terribly exciting happened today, at least not that I am going to waste time talking about, except that Michael isn't going to sell me his yo-yo. Ho hum.

My Sea Monkeys are almost all dead. There are like five left. I was crying for like, 30 minutes, and when I went downstairs to my mom, she told me I was being ridiculous after about three minutes. I know it isn't my fault that they are dead, but I feel like it is. It hard to have their lifeless eyes looking at you.

And, ok, fine. I know this sounds dumb, but the only thing getting me through the day was looking forward to a new episode of Hannah Montana, and I thought it was at 7. But Anna didn't tell me she was watching it at 6, until at 6:30 she came back and said, "Ha ha, did you watch it?" So. I'm in a really bad mood. I took an hour nap, and now I'm really tired. I just want this week to be over, or someone to do something to make the week worthwhile. Whatever. Goodnight.

Flea-Free and Ready to Fly

Quote of the day: "They don't teach you this in driver's ed." -Sergio

Ok, so I ended up buying a little dish that will hold Natalie's stars. So I started to make them, and then Anna came over to help. I had my computer in front of me, when I saw something crawling along the top of the keyboard. IT WAS A FLEA! It hopped off before I could kill it. So I was a bit grossed out. Five minutes later, I looked next to me, and there was another one! I was talking to Jason at the time, and he said to vacuum. So I got a hose vacuum and I found like five fleas. Anna and I high-tailed it out there and into the game room. Then we slept in my little sister's room. In the morning we worked a bit more on stars, but we didn't finish. So we went to Natalie's birthday party.

It was at Bamir Park or something. We started to climb this tree, but there was a bee hive in it, so I just stepped back and took pictures. We climbed a statue, and Sergio and Sophia got there. Sergio brought his soccer ball. So we went and sat on Nat's blanket and she opened her yo-yo and Sea Monkeys. Then Alex and Harry got there and we ate sandwiches and cake, and Sergio and Alex started doing dances....SO FUNNY!! Then Jocelyn and her boyfriend Evan got there, and we went to play frisbee. I had to go to the bathroom, so I borrowed Natalie's flip-flops, and as we were leaving, all of the guys were taking their shirts off. So. When we got back (the restroom was in the museum nearby, which had this cool exhibit with only cardboard boxes! it was cool) we climbed a tree. Then I went and laid down on the blanket and accidentally put my leg into a plate of cake. Ew. Eventually I went into the bee tree and just avoided the flying reincarnations of the devil himself. As I was sliding down one of its branches, I ripped a big hole in my pants. We called Natalie's mom and she came to pick everyone up.

But we couldn't all fit in her car, so me, Sophia (duh), Anna, Jocelyn, and Evan went in Serge's car, even though it wasn't technically legal. Our story was that Evan, Sophia, and Anna were his cousins, Jocelyn was married to Evan, and I was the one unrelated one. It was a bit scary being in the car with Sergio, he kept dancing to the music while he was driving, even on the highway. It was still fun though. I think I left a sock in his car though. Anyhow, at Natalie's house we ate oven pizza and tater tots (and I washed my pants), and we watched the garden state until 10:30, when Natalie's dad took me and Julia home. All my sheets and such had been washed, so I got to sleep in my bed

This morning I had to spray all of the pets with flea stuff. Kooliad HATED that. But whatever. We are almost rid of the fleas; we just have to get an exterminator. So, yes. The Sea Monkeys are 13 days old today... I'm hoping that since it's the 13th day, they will survive...

My parents come home tonight, and it won't be a day too soon. It sucked being sick without my mom =/

The quote is from Sergio. When we were in the car, and he was dancing, that's what he said.

I Now Fear Rubber Bands

Quote of the day: "Why do I get the anorexic star?" -Sergio

So I went and took the stupid History TAKS. It made me mad, because it said that "Irish" was a language. IRISH IS NOT A LANGUAGE!!! GAELIC IS THE LANGUAGE!!! *sigh* While I was taking the TAKS I was drinking a glassed vanilla frappuccino from Starbucks, which I have become addicted to. It's all I can do to not go downstairs right now and drink the last one...anywho, so I drank all of that and some water in between, so I really had to go to the bathroom the whole time. I had to time my potty breaks so that when I finished, (around 8:30) I went. Then, when he switched teachers, I went and asked the new one at ten, so as not to be suspicious. Then I went at 11 before Italian.

In Italian, I got a 93 on a test I didn't study for. I told Ms. Pesoli I studied though to make her happy, and so that she wouldn't bitch at me.

Then at lunch Katherine and Eryn came and sat with us, so it was so crowded and hard to make sure that I didn't ignore anyone. (There was me, Anna, Trey, Eryn, Katherine, Diana, and Shanna. So popular!)

Then I went to geometry. MICHAEL HAD A LIGHT UP YO-YO!!! It was so cool! So I stole it and played with it, and when I didn't give it back, he grabbed a rubber band and tried to flick me with it, so I ran. Then stupid Thomas blocked my way, so he had me cornered. He stretched the rubber band between his thumb and pointer finger and then pulled back the rubber band and let it slap back on my arm!!!! It hurt so bad! That was at like, one, and it's five now, and I still have a red line there! It left a HUGE red welt when he first did it, and the entire area was so red. Thomas moved then, and I ran around the corner of the table to take the stupid yo-yo off of my finger (as it had caused me a lot of pain), and he came at me again!! So I went into a fetal position (Ok, not really, but I did in my mind) and I backed away begging him to stop, and I showed him that I was taking it off. He kept coming until it was off. So I had a big red welt that was (and is) my battle wound. I asked him where he got it, and he said that if I brought him three dollars he'd give me one that he had at his house. So I WILL get my yo-yo!

In geometry, besides getting wounded, we played Bingo and stupid Michael was the Bingo caller instead of me, and I didn't even win, and then he got a prize (a pencil, but still) for being the caller. Then we learned how to make these CUTE little tiny stars.

So I went to history with my two little sad attempts at stars, and since Mrs. Espy wasn't there, we had nothing due during class, and so I made another star, and it was perfect! I tried again, but it got all squished. So I went to show Sergio my star. Sophia thought it was adorable, but Serg just thought it was dumb. So I made two more perfect ones, though my first one was the cutest. I went with one perfect star and one squished one to Sergio and Sophia (aww) and I gave the perfect one to Sophia and the flat one to Serg, because he had made fun of them. He did his Sergio glare (ha ha) and said, "Why do I get the anorexic star?" It was hilarious! Then I gave another perfect one to Natalie and she asked for a bowl of them for her birthday. So. That is what I will be doing for a while...I took the labels off of a Starbucks Vanilla Frappuccino (Ha! my addiction came in handy!) that I had yesterday, and I suppose I will fill that with the little stars... if I can make enough. I'm going to see if Anna can come over and help me.

After school Kaytee and Sophia were yelling about something or other, and it made Sophia cry in the bathroom. Sergio really wanted to see her, so he put his hood over his head and I linked arms with him and said, "It's Ok Sergina!" (we were pretending he was a girl) and I took him into the girls' bathroom. Jocelyn saw him and started laughing, but Sophia wouldn't talk to anyone but Jocelyn, so Serg and I left.

To learn how to fold the stars, click on this post's title. Or ask me :) The instructions say half an inch wide for the stars, but I used one that was 7 millimeters wide :) To show how tiny the star was, I stuck my hand next to it in the picture =3

Hangover My Ass

Quote of the day: "'Georgia, you're a young woman now [What was I before, a young horse?]'"

I HATE TAKS!!! Tuesday was so looooong TAKS-wise. After the math TAKS I went to Bio and we drew little pictures. During lunch.....actually, I can't remember. Just that Diana needed to borrow my English book. Then we went to third period and Monica and Rohini and I just sat around and I was told a story by Monica.

In Drama and Munson lectured us about not working. Anna pointed out that he was never there, so we weren't used to being on-task. He got all shirty and harumphy, but he knew Anna was telling the truth.

I forgot to say that the day before, Mr. Wolf said that he wasn't going to count the essay part of the Scarlet letter test. he was like, "Some of them were ok, others I was disappointed by." Then he was quiet for a second and then he was like, "Actually, to tell you the truth, I just lost them." So that was that.

After school Anna and I were talking about having a sleep-over with Eryn and Katherine. So we went home and we ended up having it at Katherine's house, though Anna ended up not being able to come. We watched Moulin Rouge and played truth or truth. Katherine was quietly crying at the end of the movie, and I was loudly sobbing. No matter how many times I watch that movie it gets to me =( We ended up staying up until about 1:30. At one point I was looking at this little corked up bottle that said K. Rose on it (Katherine Rose). Her dad had given it to her, and he said that he had gotten it from an old sea sailor. I asked her if the cork came out, and she said that it was sealed shut. However, I wanted to get the cork out because I saw some weird liquid in the bottle. Before long, I had the cork out. I sniffed the bottle and it smelled like alcohol. Katherine was surprise and said, "Oh well, there isn't anything in it." She tipped it to the side over her hand to show that nothing was there, and of course, this whiteish-clear liquid came out, and she screamed—twice, loudly. I told her to wipe it on me, and I—being wonderfully smart—licked my hand, and sure enough, it was alcohol. She freaked out and couldn't believe her dad had given her alcohol. It was a bit gross, because all that was there were the lees of the alcohol.

We woke up at nine and got ready to go. I felt bad, so I took some Tylenol right when I woke up. Katherine interviewed me for TPP. She was doing an article on someone who is obsessed with a celebrity. Who better than me and Noel? We had bagels and went to school at 11. By then I felt terrible. I ended up going to the nurse after my test in Italian. But my parents are in Las Vegas, so the lady staying with us couldn't get me for an hour. So I went and sat with everyone at lunch and then went to Geometry, where Michael insisted that I had a hangover, which was obviously impossible (unless whatever was in that bottle last night was unusually strong...) So we did a crossword puzzle (the whole time I felt like I was dying) and then my mom's friend got there and I went home. Leaving my bag with all of my cosmetics in my math class. I really hope no one steals it (except my teacher, who will keep it safe). So I went home and felt miserable all day.

It got better around dinner time, and after I fixed the internet, I tried to sign onto AIM. Turns out that AOL suspended my screen name for some reason, and I can't get it back. So. I got a new one. Its oasIS my life :)

This morning I felt better, for about two seconds. I took Tylenol as soon as I woke up, but that wasn't soon enough. I couldn't even get ready because I felt so bad. So I called Natalie, and told her not to come pick me up. Well, if she had picked me up, I would have been fine in about twenty minutes. I'm so mad that I didn't just go to school, because now I have to make up the TAKS tomorrow AND I still don't have my cosmetics!!!!! I doubt any of my friends went to get it (not their fault; they don't know where it is, I guess). So I'm waiting for everyone to get home. *sigh*

The sea monkey's are ten days old today!! I fed them for the second time. I put in their tiny little spoonful of food into the water. The sea monkeys swooped happily towards the food, and all of a sudden their backs had a little red line down it. That line was the food in their gut. Even the little ones enjoyed it. Some of the little ones got so full their swimming slowed down and they had to rest for a while on the bottom. I love them, so cute!

I know that everyone who reads this (like four people, but w/e) missed me dearly =3 Sorry about being ill. DAMN YOU PENGUINS!!!! Also, the quote is from the first of the Georgia Nicholson books, Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging.If you have never heard of her, or never been to her website, click on the post's title. Anywho, I miss everyone. So TALK TO ME!!!!!!! I'm looooooooooonley :(

Bring Back the Yo-yos!

Quote of the day: "Foofy is not a compliment!" -Eryn

In bio we were doing this lab with blowing up balloons. In the trial that me and Sergio were doing, you had to take a normal breath, then breath out, then blow your leftover air into the balloon. It was the next to last trial, and so I was used to what the balloon was doing, and so when I took my breath and blew into the balloon and it made a weird sound because it blew half out of my mouth and inflated really fast, it scared me. My eyes grew huge and I made a huge gasping sound, and me and Serg laughed for like, five minutes! It was so funny!

In Italian I went to blow my nose in the restroom. Normally this wouldn't be funny or exciting, but our hall pass is this HUGE rubber duck with a pink rain hat on. We never got a yellow hall pass and so my teacher used a little rubber ducky. But people kept stealing our little rubber ducky, so she decided to get a BIG one. So I grabbed the duck and went to the bathroom, and it's a huge duck so I set it down on top of the paper towel thing while I got some toilet paper and blew my nose. There was another girl in the bathroom, and when she went to get a paper towel, she made a funny face at the GIANT duck guarding the paper towels. I started laughing and I was like, "It's our hall pass." She started laughing and we went our separate ways. I was laughing when I came back into Italian, and I had to explain why. Ms. Pesoli said that I should have said, "I never leave home without my ducky!"

During gym I realized that I hadn't eaten anything since two yesterday after lunch, and I was really dizzy. So Monica gave me her granola bar, yum(ish).

We had a sub in Geometry and so we had two easy-peasy worksheets that me and Michael did in like five minutes. The rest of the class we just played with my yo-yo =3 We taught people to yo-yo and apparently, according to Michael it's my fault that my yo-yo doesn't sleep because I let it spin around randomly. Whatever.

We were walking to lunch, and I was yo-yoing (of course) and then this guy goes, "No WAY!" And I turned around and this guy had a yo-yo too! So I held up mine, and we had like, THE EXACT SAME YO-YO!! Except his was glow-in-the-dark. Then we did a high-five with the yo-yo stings in our hands

I got to eat my cake during lunch and it was so goooooood. Apparently Natalie had to explain to a lot of people why the cake was greyish brown, ha ha. Then Trey came back from Magical practice and was talking about girls' hair, and said that Eryn's hair was foofy. He didn't seem to get that you don't say that to girls, and so Eryn was like, "Foofy is not a compliment!!!"

During drama, after Eryn and I had done our scenes and I managed to get Michael out of my chair (and get my yo-yo and iPod back) I listened to Michael and Jared spit out Borat quotes. It was pretty entertaining.

In history after we were done with the worksheets, I helped Nat finish her cake, and I took a piece for Diana.

But then when I got to English, Diana said that she didn't want the cake because she was having a bad day o_O. Whatever. So I tried to give a piece to Noor, but she didn't want it because it was grey. So went to give it to Karen, but she didn't want it either, so Tina gobbled it down, ha ha. After the vocab test, Diana said that something behind me said "Trey" so I was trying to figure out what she was talking about, but I couldn't. She ended up screaming out (after class was over) that the word Trey was on a pillow project next to me, ha ha.

My sea monkeys are a week old today!!! I gave them a teensy tiny bit of food for good measure =3 They are getting so big! They are like half a centimetre!! I luff them =3

I was reading Cosmo Girl, and in the spooky stories section, this is what it said, "Two years ago, my dad passed away suddenly. The night before his funeral, I was crying hysterically on my back porch. As I cried, I said, 'Daddy, I just want to see you one more time, just for five minutes,' wishing that he could hear me. Then this black cat came out of the woods and walked right up to me. He was purring and I started petting him. About five minutes later, the cat just got up and left. The thing is, my dad always said that if reincarnation really existed, he'd want to come back as a black cat! So I'm positive it was him!"

I LOVE that story! It made me cry!

M&Ms Don't Work Well In A Cake

Quote of the day: “Anything that disproves God, bring it on,”-Noel Gallagher

I was going to have Katherine and Anna and Eryn over today, because we never get together other than in school, but Katherine had to see a play and Eryn had a family Bar-B-Q. And not that I don't love Anna, but she had already been over this weekend, so no one came over. My family went to that Nick's Pasta Place with my Grandparents (the ones that are still alive). I got yummmmmmy margarita pizza (I LOVE the tomatoes on it!) and tiramisu. =3

My sea monkeys are getting so BIG! They are swimming around doing happy flips. They are so cute!

Tomorrow is Natalie's 16th Birthday!!! Friday we were talking about how good a white cake with M&Ms mixed in the batter and strewn about on the top would taste, so I made her one. It's funny, because the M&Ms slogan is "Melt in your mouth, not in your hand!" But the batter was cold, and the M&Ms outer coating started to come off =/ So then the batter got a weird hue, so I tried to die the batter blue, then I decided I'd do purple. But it ended up being a greyish colour because of the M&Ms and the food colouring mixed together. It just goes to show that M&Ms don't work in a cake. So when we took it out of the oven and it had cooled, it wouldn't come out of the pan. Turns out the M&Ms had melted into the pan, and glued the cake in. So, yeah, after we pried it out, I iced it and stuck the M&Ms on. I wrote 16! in M&Ms, and then put a smiley, and then a border of M&Ms. :)

So right, the quote is something Noel said about a book.

"Noel Loves The God Delusion By Richard Dawkins
The hard-living Oasis star Noel Gallagher has revealed to the New Musical Express that he has read Richard Dawkins’ book The God Delusion and loved it “Anything that disproves God, bring it on,” he is quoted as saying." Click on this post's title to go to the website that this is from.

OASIS!!!

<----Liam

Quote of the day: (see previous post)

EE!!!! I was watching the Brit awards (they were actually on live on Valentine's day, but it was a rerun on BBC) literally JUST to see Oasis. So I watching the whole fucking thing, two and a half hours, and they FINALLY came on!!! They were the most popular, so they got to sing four songs. Just ask Anna, I was spluttering gibberish I was so excited. I actually broke into happy tears when I saw them. It's a bit crazy how much I am in love with them. *sigh* So yes, I scared my little sister because I was trying to talk to her, but proper words wouldn't come out. Oh Noel, how I love Thee! Noel is the one in the link (click this post's title). That picture was taken before the awards. The one of Liam at the left is during them playing. I just thought I'd come on here at half past midnight to let everyone know that I LOVE NOEL GALLAGHER!!!!!!!!!!

Don't Ever Give Trey A Snicker's

Quote of the day:"If eyes are a window to the soul, it does no good to you to block them up [with sunglasses all of the time]."-Noel Gallagher

Last night I went over to Trey's house and we watched Bye Bye Birdie the movie to prep for the next day's rehearsal. Towards the end, we (Anna and Rebecca/Bob and Trey and I) got a BIT hyper and Rebecca grabbed a Nerf gun and began to pelt us with it. Wiley just stood off to the side and was trying to figure out what the hell we were doing. I got killed instantly and then Trey pushed a couch into me. So I grabbed some drums and I became the drummer boy, drumming for Rebecca's war. This was all before I had any candy. Then I asked Trey if he had some cookies, and he got some out of the fridge and preheated the oven as we continued our war. I smelled something burning so I checked his oven. It turned out they had had potatoes the night before and the potato fat trey was still in there (the trey that catches the fat from baking potatoes as it drips. Don't ask, I have no idea). So it was smoking and all black and so we took it out and then put the cookies in and I had about five. BIG mistake. After the movie was over and Wiley and Rebecca had left, Trey grabbed the bowl of candy and started pelting Anna and me with Snicker's, leaving us defenseless and wounded. So we pulled a Gavroche and picked up the Snicker's he threw at us and threw them back at him. Finally, as sugar began to block my rational thoughts, my mother showed up and we went to my house where Anna spent the night.

The next morning I got to feed my Sea Monkeys for the first time! They loved it! Then we went to rehearsal for Bye, Bye, Birdie. It got a bit boring in the middle, so I got out my trusty yo-yo and yo-yoed. We got to sing our fan song!

"We love you Conrad!
Oh Yes we Do-oo
We love you Conrad
And we'll be true-oo!
When you're not near us
We're blue!
Oh Conrad we love you!"

We get to sing that about 500 times, and we get to scream and faint whenever we see Conrad Birdie. The rehearsal ended like half an hour early so me and Anna and Trey and Rebecca went outside and played on the swings. We made Trey play Truth or Truth (which he thought was stupid but whatever) until my mom came and took Anna home and me to ride horsies. That pretty much was my day so far.

I know you are dying to figure out why Noel said that quote, so the link to the video is above (click on this post's title). Mind you it's an old interview!

Sea monkeys!

<-Not my Sea Monkeys

Last night I had this crazy dream! I'm too lazy to type it all out, but basically these ghetto guys were trying to get me and my cat, so I ran and was saved by a group of guys, then a group of girls, and then a cop taizered a guy...

I hate Friday the 13th, I'm so superstitious its crazy. Like, I totally would have made a good grade on my bio quiz if it were tomorrow!

In italian we have the weirdest conversations. Mrs Pesoli was talking about her first italian class, which was in Venezuela. The teacher told them (in spanish) to repeat what she said. "What is on the desk? The pen is on the desk!" Except she said it in italian. The word for pen in Italian is penna. And all of the students in the class refused to say penna because they couldn't hear the difference between the double letters and single ones. The word "pena" in Spanish means penis. So they would have been saying, "What is on the desk? The penis is on the desk!" So yeah. They didn't do it.

My Sea Monkeys are four days old today! I get to start feeding them tomorrow, yay me! I love them, I can't wait!!
