Got a new computer (my stepdad's job deals with computers, so he can get computers for free sometimes...this one I think they were gonna throw out)...finally virus-free!!! Hooray!!
Not much has been happening lately...I reconstructed a shirt today....it looks like a halter top with ruffles now :) I'm pretty proud of it, although I admit that I messed it up and made it a little too small so I had to add the ruffles so it would cover...me, lol ^^' Ruffles made it better tho.
And tomorrow I'm going shopping for d-rings, grommets, ribbon, safety pins, clips, fabric...and some other stuff....so I'm gonna have loootts of fun with that! I'm makin bondage pants, and hopefully a corset-style shirt if I find some fabric...
Other than the sewing (hand sewing, might I add! I don't own a *working* sewing machine), I did practically nothing today...I even went to Beverley's house for a couple hours, and we did nothing together! Tomorrow should be better.
So, how are all of you people doing lately? Any plans for Halloween? Is anyone ever going to comment on anything I write??
Yeah, the title of this blog is just the title of the song I'm listening to at themoment...and my spacebarisn't working right for some reason, sobear with me...bleh. I haven't written in so long!! My computeris stilla little fucked up...thecolors andall....but there arealotless popups now...almost none! ^^ So,anyways...hurricaine Jeanne knockedout my power for 3 days and I'm really glad to have it back...not that I wanted togo online or play video games or anything...I just really missed air conditioning....and lights!! lol Yesterday was Homecoming, and,amazingly, Iwent! I didn't golast year, and I actually wasn't planning on going this year until the day before, after I got home from school.....me, bev, and my friend kristen were going to have a kind of "anti-homecoming" where we just hung out instead of going to hc, but on Friday (hc was saturday), I was talking to the guy I like, and he is what changed my mind. He had kept saying to me "i want you to go!", but I kept telling him I was going to stay home with Bev (she wasn't allowed to go...her parents are insane....they'll give her any little excuse why she can't do something...and I'm not exaggerating!). Well, on Friday he told me once again that he wanted me to go, but I said I wasn't gonna, and he told me "you really should go! I'm graduating this year!" Well, that was news to me. He's a junior, and, apparently, he's on the 3-year plan that our school has (where you graduate in your junior year instead of your senior year). So then I started having second thoughts about the whole thing....I wanted to go, but I didn't want to ditch my friends. So I called bev up, and she told me to go, and that I shouldn't stay home just because she had to. Then I called kristen and told her to go, and she eventually gave in (she was allowed to, but didn't want to go)...the funny thing is that she'd had about 20 different people trying to get her to go to hc for the past month, and I convinced her to go in about half anhour :P So we got there, and it was a lot of fun. I wore the black dress I wore to my mom's wedding last year and a black fedora (if you didn't know, a fedora is a hat....like the kind the Blues Brothers wear in the movie) that I borrowed from my friend Ray. I surprized a lot of my friends because I'd told them all that I wasn't going. I got to dance with the guy I like (twice!!) and I hung out with him for the last hour of the dance (and he wore the fedora for more than half that time.....and I kept telling him that he looked better in it than I did, and when I danced with him, he told me that I looked beautiful ^^). I even bitched out mia (a girl that me, bev, and our friend brittany hate to death....she used to be our friend, but then she kept acting really stupid last year....she overdosed on ambien and bragged about it!! she doesn't go to our school anymore, but she went to our homecoming, so I decided to bitch her out for all 3 of us since bev couldn't be there and brittany wasn't around at the time). It was lovely ^^ Then I slept over brittany's house with Nikki and Alyssa, which was really fun. Nick, Drew and Derrick (they're kind of my friends....I know Nick and Drew because they hang out with Bev a lot, but I don't really know Derrick) came over and we all went swimming at like 1 in the morning (hc ended at 11). Nick had to leave early, but Drew and Derrick stayed until about 2:30, so that was fun. Then Alyssa and I stayed up until 4:30 because Brittany and Nikki went to sleep after Derrick and Drew left. Today, while I was still over at Brittany's, Bev came over, and she, Brittany, Alyssa, Drew and I watched The Girl Next Door, which was not that bad of a movie. So, I had a lot of fun ^^ and I'm actually glad that I decided to go to homecoming...'twas very fun, and I got to hang out with my friends all night (oo! and they played a green day song-"Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)"-as the last song...it was awesome!). And now, I must work on my bio homework....fun. (**Sidenote** DAMNIT!!!! I forgot to call Christine.....somebody really should remind me to call her sometime....lol)
So. Nothing really interesting going on in my life.
Been thinking about asking the guy I like to go to homecoming with me (October 2nd)...not sure how to do it tho! (someone HELP!!!)
My life has been kinda slow lately....just nothing happening, I guess. Haha, I amuse myself....I'm listening to French ska :lol: I don't understand a single word of the lyrics, but it's a good song. ("Abat Les Politiciens" by 3 Against 1)
I'm not sure if it's still on my computer or not (my stepdad tried to fix it), but all I know is that I only have 16 colors, and the biggest screen area I can get is 800 by 600 pixels. Hooray.
I even took a screenshot of the popups (7 at once, right when I first opened my internet!)...and I'll bet you can see how many lovely colors I get, too, eh?:
Oh how nice. and I'm stuck with it. I can still go on the internet and everything (my stepdad told me I could...he fixes computer problems-not necessarily viruses-for a living, so I trust his judgement on this one), but the colors are a pain in the ass...especially for flash sites (I can't see them most of the time!!)
This wouldn't be that big of a problem....if only my stepdad could find his antivirus program CD....bleh.
Oh well. So that means that I'm not going to be online for awhile (right now I'm on my brother's computer....shhhh!!! don't tell him! he doesn't know!! lol).
Anyways, updates on my life. Hurricane Charley missed us, but we got some rain. Frances blew a tree in my backyard down and turned my driveway green with brances and leaves (haha! sounds like I'm talking about someone named Frances!). Ivan isn't here yet, and may or may not hit at all....no word on that yet.
Been seriously thinking about asking out the guy I like....but I'm afraid he might say no....please, if you have any advice on this matter (girls asking guys out), tell me! Thanks!
So. Until I'm back, have fun, stay safe (especially if you live anywhere near where the hurricanes are hitting!), and keep blogging :)
Once again, another hurricane is gonna hit FL....I'm getting out of this stupid state as soon as I can.
School's cancelled tomorrow...and, ironically, tomorrow was the one day that I actually wanted to go to school! I hate Florida. You would too, if you lived here....everyone makes it out to be the best place in the world, but really it's not. It's a good vacation spot, sure, but it really sucks to live here. These are some of the reasons why:
-overcrowded -more people means lower-paying jobs -we have different seasons than the usual spring, summer, fall, and winter...we have hot, hot and humid, cold, and cold and wet. -since it is a 'tourist state', everything costs more.
And that's only a few reasons. I also happen to live in the horrible city of Land O Lakes, which is, literally, the nudist colony capital of the country...which wouldn't be so bad, except for the fact that almost nobody under the age of 60 lives in them. Ew.
Anyways. Bev and I are gonna have some fun... They always have this big pep rally gimmick before the homecoming football game, and the student council needs some sophomores to do some skits and everything, so me and Bev are gonna sign up. Normally, I would hate to do something like this. I have absolutely no school spirit, and I'm not very social (Bev is)...but this should be fun. We're gonna dress up 70's style and dance to "Shining Star" by Earth, Wind, and Fire. That's one of my favorite songs :) So, we're going to make the best out of our 4-day weekend (Labor Day is Monday) by putting our dance together. That should be fun.
Fucking hell, I wish there was school tomorrow!!!! I'm not even quite sure why...I was just really looking forward to going....eh, oh well. Life goes on.
Todaaaaaayyyyy, I got a note from the guy I like! It was great.
He didn't ask me out in it or anything, but it's still the sweetest note I've ever gotten ^^ I'm not gonna post the entire thing, but here's some bits of it:
"you looked great today, you always look great...perhaps it's your smile. I'm captivated by your smile."
Lmao--like the title? It actually makes sense. Lunch and 7th period were actually very interesting today! Be warned-some of the things my friends and I discuss may sound extremely strange...and this guy doesn't "like" me or anything, by the way...that's just how my friends are! Plus, he's got a girlfriend, lol
Seriously. This was one of the funniest fucking things ever. I was talking to one of my guy friends (he's the king of random comments) during lunch, and all of the sudden he said something (this isn't exactly what he said, but it's the same message) like "you know, your boobs are perfect for your body type", and I looked at him funny and covered myself. Then he was like "what bra size do you wear? D?". LMFAO. Not even close. It amused me. So I shook my head (still covering myself, but laughing now) "a C?" I shook my head. Then he looked at my friend Robin and said "what bra size do you think she is?" and Robin looked at the ceiling and said "I don't know! I'm not looking at her boobs!!" Then my friend Brittany glanced at me and said "an A or a B?" and I nodded (yeah, I'm a B. I don't care if anyone knows, lol...not a big deal). Then he looked at me and said "there's NO WAY you're a B!! I'm going to debate this!" so yeah, I know there were some other details I've left out, but I can't remember them at the moment...that was really freakin funny tho! :P
Okay. That was the funniest part. Awhile before that, this guy had taken out his cellphone to check what time it was, and when he was looking at it, I took it out of his hand and put it in my pocket, and he just stood there looking at his open hand (where his cellphone had been) for a few seconds, then said "you can hold that for lunch, but you can't keep it over the weekend...normally I wouldn't care, but I have to call some of my friends long distance this weekend..." so I said I'd give it back to him later. Then lunch ended, and we both forgot I had his cellphone (oops!). So I went to my 7th period class, and when I sat down I felt his phone in my pocket and thought "oh shit! he's gonna kill me!" because I wasn't going to see him for the rest of the day. So I was in class for about 5 minutes, and then I practically jumped out of my seat because his cellphone was on vibrate and someone called Scared the shit out of me, lol We're not allowed to have cellphones in school, and if a teacher even sees a cellphone, they take it away from us. So I just took the cellphone out of my pocket and looked to see who was calling from under the table (this class has four big tables that everyone sits at instead of desks), and it said "Jeff" with a number (and no, this guy's name isn't Jeff). I couldn't answer it, and even if I could, I wouldn't have....I figured that would be an invasion of privacy, and even though I thought it was this guy calling because he'd realized I still had his cellphone, I wouldn't have answered it if I could...it would be kind of odd to have someone call and a girl's voice answer instead of his....:P
During class, "Jeff" called 3 more times and one time it was the school payphone (so I knew it was my friend who was calling), but there was nothing I could do about it. My friends and I tried to think of how I could get the phone back to him, but we couldn't think of anything. I would have asked to go to the bathroom, but unfortunately, this class is the only room in the entire school with a bathroom built into it (child development...one half of the classroom is for preschool, so it has bathrooms), so if I answered or returned a call from in there, everyone would hear me. So that wasn't going to work. Then I started thinking about trying to get it to him after class (by the way, this guy didn't know the class I was in), but that wouldn't work either. He's a senior, and he has a car. I'm a sophomore, and I ride the bus. The seniors park in the senior parking lot, and the buses park on the complete opposite side of the school. So for the rest of class, I was sitting there saying "he's gonna kill me" and "I feel so horrible!" since he'd said that he really needed his phone this weekend...I said this so many times that my friends kept telling me to shut up, lol
So class ended, and I went out into the hallway, and I didn't see him, so I felt even worse. I started walking to my locker, and I finally saw him (actually, he was standing there, looking for me, lol). I handed him his cellphone and I was just like "I'm sorry!! I forgot!!!" and I wouldn't shut up cuz I felt so bad, so he laughed and gave me a hug, lol. Then we were walking and he said "yeah, I was just thinking 'shit shit shit!' because it would have sucked if my girlfriend called and another girl answered my phone...and we were just talking about loyalty last night!!" lol So I told him I wouldn't have answered it anyways, and we laughed about it, and it was fun.
Yeah. All of the above was the most exciting part of my day, lol. Well, except for maybe the part when this other guy who everyone (including me) thought liked me turned around and asked my friend out! lol! That made me feel a lot better (and made me laugh)....he's one of my other guy friends, and I only like him as a friend, so I was kind of scared that he was going to ask me out...yeah, it was a big complicated thing. The funny part is that the friend of mine that he asked out was one of the people that thought he liked me! haha! So it was a big shock for her, too (and she turned him down, because she feels the same way about him as I do)
So my day was actually pretty interesting...but I'm glad the weekend is here!
Yep. Another update to my past....3 (I think) blogs....or maybe it was 2. Dunno.
Well, anyways, you're gonna have to read those blogs to understand this one.
So, Beverley and I went up to the guy I like this morning to say hi and talk with him and stuff...I came up to him, and he said hi, and then he looked at Bev and said "she came! she came to see me yesterday!!" with this big grin on his face! ^^ lol, it was great.
First, let me explain...well, no, that would take too long. All you really need to know is that the guy I like and I write notes back and forth to each other from our separate buses every afternoon (yeah, see my previous blog for a full description).
Well, I've known for a long time where he works part time (McDonald's; he was the one who told me where he worked), and he's been trying to get me to come and say hi to him for awhile, but I haven't been able to go there (yeah. I'm 15, I don't have a car, and I don't have any friends who have a car who would be willing to drive me there, lol). Today the guy I like wrote me a note that said "I'm working tonight", since the last time I went to say hi to him, he hadn't been working that night. So this afternoon, my mom (being the cool mom that she is....I've never been embarassed by her...she's one of my best friends--she's the one who got me into all the music I like and everything ^^) said that we could have McDonald's for dinner (oh how very healthy!), so she drove my brother and I there. So we got there, and he saw me and everything, but he was really busy, so I (unfortunately) didn't get to talk to him... He always says how he "loves my smile" and how my smile is "beautiful", so as I was waiting for the guy at the counter to get our food, the guy I like looked at me a few times, and we just smiled at each other (yay ^^). Then he looked at me, looked back at what he was doing, and said "we love to see you smile". lmao! I thought it was cute--it was something that he knew only I would catch on to :D
Oh, and to continue yesterday's blog, I met him in the morning in the front of the school, but nothing big happened or anything (I didn't expect it to....but the way I wrote my last blog it sounded as though I was thinking he was gonna ask me out or something :P)...but I did get to talk to him for awhile before school started, so that was good ^^
While riding the bus home today, I was doing the whole note thing on the bus with the guy I like (again)....let me explain if you have no clue what I'm talking about:
-My bus is always right in front of his -I always sit in the very back of my bus -He always sits in the very front of his bus -We can see each other, so we write notes back and forth (which Beverley started--go Bev!!)
We'll write notes in permanent marker on notebook paper and hold it up to the windows...very fun!
One more thing you need to know is that this guy knows that I like him. Well, today, he wrote a note that said "meet me in front tomorrow"....hmm....very interesting... Now I wanna know why he wants to meet me tomorrow! lol The only part that makes me a little nervous is I'm not sure exactly what he meant-I don't know if he's wanting me to meet him in the front of the school outside or inside...eh, oh well...I'll see tomorrow, I guess!
Yes, I have more than 100 tBucks that I want to get rid of.
I'm bored just watching that "money" sit there, as there is nothing I want to get from the tBlog store.
So I have decided to start a contest for my entertainment called "Why Should You Win 100 tBucks" so I can get rid of some of them.
Rules:
1. Must be a real, true reason. 2. Must be an interesting story. 3. If you don't have a true, interesting story, make one up, but it'll have to be a damn good one for me to pick it. 4. State whether it is true or not. 5. Don't lie and say your story is true if it isn't. That's just pointless.
To enter, just comment on this blog...hey, what do you have to lose? You could win 100 tBucks!
First place-100 tBucks Second place-50 tBucks Third place-25 tBucks
Deadline is either 10 entries or September 21st...depends on which one comes last.
Whenever she's in a bad mood and I try to talk to her, she says that I "have an attitude" and she doesn't feel like dealing with it. Like today, we were talking about how we don't really like stereotypes and stuff, and my mom and I were saying how we don't like the word "nigger", and she kept saying it, so I asked her to stop, since I don't like hearing it at all, and she told me to go back inside the house (we were on the back porch).
Who can tell me what the hell is wrong with my mother? And don't even try saying PMS. This goes way beyond PMS.

Yeah, as the title clearly says, Michael is the devil. My brother and I completely loathe him. He's a freshman (I'm a sophomore) at my school, and he's the most annoying prep (and I don't use that label lightly...only to people who I KNOW are stupid, only out for popularity, and love to make fun of people for no reason) you would ever meet. First of all, he's completely brainless, and second, he's the kind of person you want to stab in the face with a steak knife...repeatedly.
About 3 days ago, he came into class wearing an entirely pink shirt, so I asked him (politely, not offensively) why he was wearing a pink shirt. He then said "why are you wearing black?" in a rude voice, and I said it was because black is my favorite shade. Then he said "well, pink is MY favorite shade" (yes. he's so stupid he has to repat things that I say so he thinks he knows what he's talking about), and I said "pink isn't a shade. Pink is a color." and left it at that.
The next day, he came into class and wouldn't stop bugging me about my appearence. Then came the weekend, and yesterday he came in and said "did you smoke any crank this weekend?" to which I explained how I was straight edge (I don't drink/do drugs/sleep around), and he and his friends just laughed. He kept bothering me for the rest of the period, just like the past day that I had seen him. And so you see, he is annoying. I hadn't known him at all before I had asked him about his pink shirt, and my brother told me about him (they're the same age, and my brother said that Michael is rude and annoying, and he won't stop making fun of you, and when he does, he does it for no particular reason).
So today, I came prepared. Since he has the IQ of a grain of sand (well, maybe I'm giving him too much credit...the sand is smarter), I worked out a few things that I would say to him, since I knew he was going to attempt to make fun of me again today. And sure enough, I was right. In about the middle of the class, I stood up to hand my paper to our teacher, and he said "hey Renae!" (I'm surprised he's learned my name so quickly) "are you drunk", and continued saying things like "did you get drunk last night" while I was standing and when I sat down (he obviously doesn't have a high enough IQ to remember what I said to him about me being straight edge).
So then I looked at him and I said (this isn't exactly what I said, but it's mostly right): "dude, seriously. You've got to learn to step beyond the boundaries of the stereotypes that you live your life behind. Who are you to judge someone by their looks? You think that just because I wear black a lot that it means that I'm some sort of freak, derelict, or satanist, but I'm not, okay?" to which he replied "yeah, right, thanks for the lecture" (and all of his little friends laughed). Then one of the girls at his table (who actually IS my age) said "well, someone told us that you like to smoke crack", and I replied "who was it? him?" and she actually said that it was. Then the rest of them were dumb enough to laugh at me. So after awhile of Michael, his stupid friends and I going back and forth, I was "winning" I guess you could say, and Michael couldn't think of anything else to insult me with. There was about 5 minutes left in the period (my very last period), and he said "well, we know you give your dog oral sex" (that's not word for word, but it was something along those lines). I don't have a dog. I haven't had one since I was about 8. So I simply said "yeah, I don't have a dog", and when he couldn't think of anything else to say, he said "....yeah you do" and all of his stupid friends laughed with him! Ha!
So when the bell rang, one of the girls in my class came up to me and said "you sounded really intelligent!" and was just congratulating me on my verbal assault, lol!! That was the best feeling in the world :P And my friend Leslie (who is also in that class) said "you know, if you and Michael got into a fistfight, I'd jump right in there with you!" (haha, obviously I'm not the only one who hates him).
And just 5 minutes ago, my brother got home (freshmen get home later than all the other grades) and he knocked on my door and said "I heard about your verbal beating on Michael" (LOL!!!) Apparently, another one of the girls in my class (a girl named Danica) was in my brother's class later that day, and she went up to him, and here is what my brother said their conversation was:
Danica: Did you know that your sister got into a fight today? Bro: What?? Danica: Yeah, she sounded really smart! And it was this big verbal thing between her and a bunch of other people, but she won!
HAHA! As for round one of this ongoing war, I think I'm winning so far :)
So yeah, today was a pretty damn good day! Actually, I don't think I can thing of anything that has gone wrong yet today.....**knocks on wood** lol
Today wasn't all too exciting...didn't do much at all...got a new computer tho!
This one has windows 2000 just like my other one (my scanner only works with 2000 or lower), so it's not too different, but I finally have sound!!!! I haven't had a computer with sound in....too long! lol It's also a lot faster.
I'm so glad my stepdad works with computers for a living--got this one for free! I can finally LISTEN to the websites that I look at! lol
Yeah, just noticed my blog broke 2000 pageviews--thanks for reading!
Okay, so hurricaine Charley didn't wind up hitting my town at all. All we got was a little rain (it may sound sick and twisited, but I'm a little disappointed...oh well). And for those of you who don't know, I live in Florida, just north of Tampa.
That means that my power didn't wind up going out at 10am like the news people planned, but I was just too lazy to get online :D
So today was quite fun...hung out with Beverley all day long, ate some Poobies (inside joke), talked on the phone with her friend Jason in NY....I can't wait for school to start on Monday (see last blog)!!! Oi, the suspense is killing me!!
On Thursday night my dad called.....the first time I've spoken to him in a month and a half.....damn, I miss him.....haven't seen him since May....long story, I don't want you all being depressed, so I'll leave it at that!
Only 4 more days till I go to the Projekt Revolution tour with Bev!!! Linkin Park, Korn, The Used, Less Than Jake!!! (oh yeah...and snoop dog.....bleeccch.) I can't wait for that either! lol Gonna get out of school early...school ends at 2, concert starts at 2....fun fun!
Okay, I'll talk to you all later! Have fun, eat some poobies, and don't forget to spank a monkey!!!! (btw, the monkey thing had nothing to do with the inside joke....I've just had the word "monkey" stuck in my head since Thursday, and I don't know why...)
Okay. You may or may not have heard about hurricaine Charley, but that doesn't matter, really. All you need to know is that:
1. It's headed for the west coast of Florida
2. I live on the west coast of Florida and 3. By the time it hits where I live, it'll be a category 3 hurricaine.
So today was pretty...erm...interesting, lol. Not a bad day, actually!
Here's a scan of the letter we got sent home with us:
And, obviously, there is something written on the back. I'll tell you the story ^^
It's actually a good thing that happened today!!! VERY good, indeed!
Okay, this is probably the first and last time that I will tell any of you the name of the guy I like (for privacy reasons, I haven't said it yet...I'm only saying it now because it goes with the next picture). His name is Manny (as in the nickname for Emmanuel). He knows that I like him, and my best friend Beverley rides the bus with me (in the back), and today he was sitting in the front of his bus, which was right behind ours, so we could see him and he could see us. Beverley takes my no school paper and does this on the back:
(and for those of you who don't know, my name is Renae, lol) Which I completely was not expecting!!! Then she writes another one on notebook paper that says "you should kiss her", and he writes back (in response to both notes)
"It's Manny, not Many
Sounds like a good idea"
So I don't know what's with that!!!
They wrote about 20 more notes before his bus turned and we couldn't see him anymore....So now it kind of sucks that I don't have school tomorrow-I won't see him until Monday!!
Oh, and by the way, right after Beverley wrote that on the back of my paper and showed it to Manny, she crumpled it up, and I was like "BEV!!! I need that! My mom won't believe that we don't have shool!!" and she just said "OH!!! Sorry!!!!" and tried to straighten it out on the window, lol.
So when I got home, my mom was going insane....she's taking this hurricaine thing WAY too seriously. We live in Land O Lakes, which is just north of Tampa, so the hurricaine has to hit a stretch of land before it hits us, so it's bound to die down at least a little bit (plus, the most violent part of the storm isn't even going to touch us). My mom is acting like our house is going to be blown flat. She's made all these plans ("if our house is blown down, we'll go live in Connecticut with grandma", lmao) and she even made my brother and stepdad turn the trampoline in our backyard upside-down so that it doesn't fly through our back porch and break through our sliding glass door (I got pictures of them in the process of doing it ^^). I'm the one who is always paranoid about every little storm....I've been that way ever since I was little (when hurricaine Georges was supposed to hit near my old house, I was huddled on the couch, surrounded by all of my favorite belongings because I didn't want them to be destroyed), and this is the first time that I'm not scared at all. I don't know why; I'm just not! So hopefully my feelings are right...
Tomorrow at 10am, our power is going to be shut off purposely...doesn't bother me a bit. And still I have no clue why!!! lol
So this weekend should be different!
OOH! one more thing before I end this. If you read my last blog, you would know that in my drafting class, I'm the only girl, and the only person I know in there is my ex (I'm trying to be friends with him, really I am, but he's got this whole dumb "you want to be friends with me? really? but....since you broke up with me, doesn't that mean you're supposed to hate me?" kind of attitude...plus we got assigned seats Tuesday and he's on the entire other side of the room). WELL, last year in drafting (it was drafting I, and now I'm in drafting II), I had 3 best friends-Eddie (who, being a senior, graduated), Rebecca (who didn't like drafting so she didn't take it this year), and Billy (who had been trying to get into drafting all this week-his schedule got screwed up-but our class is completely full, so if he got into drafting, he was gonna be in 2nd period instead of 4th period with me). Today, Billy came up to me, and he's gonna be be in my class!!! YAY!! Lol, I haven't said more than two words to anyone in that class so far....I'm still gonna be the only girl (technically...lol, j/k), but I'll finally have someone to talk to!!!!!! lol
Okay. Here are the most...important (good and bad) parts of my day:
•Woke up at 5:30am, wide awake after only 4 hours of sleep, lol.
•In my first period class, I found out that my friend's now ex-boyfriend (who I kind of know...but at least that's someone....and he's nice anyways) and I have our first 3 periods together....glad I'll at least know SOMEONE! lol
•In my fourth period class (drafting/design II) I was the only girl (although I didn't realize that until Brill pointed it out to me at the end of class.....for those of you just tuning in, Brill is Mr.Brill, the drafting teacher). The part that completely sucked about that was that the only guy in the class that I knew was my ex....boy was that awkward.....and I'm not the one that makes it that way, he is....I've been trying to be friends with him (since that WAS the way we started out) the entire time, and he has this whole "what? you want to be friends? really? seriously?" kind of attitude, like he thinks I secretly hate him or something....guys are confusing.
•Also in drafting, these two guys came in wearing "I ♥ Jesus...a lot" shirts that they made themselves with white tshirts and black sharpies, and they came in and yelled "YEAH! JESUS ROCKS!!!! WHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"....that was entertaining.
•Then, since drafting is the class that nobody takes seriously, the two "Jesus freaks" (emphasis on the freaks, lol) started playing a game...one yelled "the floor is lava!" and so about 5 other boys put their feet on the desk, lol. Then Brill came up to them and said "look, I'm glad you found Jesus and everything, but you've got to pay attention", lol.
•Oh, by the way, this drafting class mixes drafting II, III, and IV...and Brill started talking to the drafting IV guys, and he said "you're gonna have to do a drawing on the computer of an optometrist's office" and one of the drafting IV kids goes (and drafting IV is all seniors) "an optometrist! that's a foot doctor!" lmao
•Okay, last thing (I promise, lol). My good friend Zack was expelled last year (I won't say why), so I thought it kind of sucked that I wasn't gonna see him, but I saw him in lunch! Apparently, the school gave him a second chance, so he's back-which is way cool...that gives me one more person that I know! lol
Anyone else have any interesting first day of school stories?
Well, yesterday was perfect, and today.....not so much....kind of odd, really, how yesterday was great, and today sucked, lol.
Today I had to wake up at 6am to go to the orthodontist, and when I got there, I was only there for 10 minutes Then on the way home, my mom stopped to get a newspaper from one of those newspaper boxes, and she made me go and get it, and when I did, a mud dauber (they're these big black stinging bugs, and I guess they're a type of wasp...they're frickin huge!! if you wanna see what one looks like, go here: http://stephenville.tamu.edu/...~fmitchel/insects/bymudd_ s.jpg ) came out and stung me on my arm...and what's worse is that it got me twice!! Those things hurt like a bitch!! At least I got to have a nap, lol...but I was supposed to go swimming with Beverley, n that didn't happen....oh well.
Okay. It kind of sucks that I had to repost my entire fucking entry because i clicked on one of the emoticons, but I won't let that ruin my good mood (and good day).
What happened today was:
I woke up at 8am (!) which is amazing for me because, since it's the summer, I've been waking up at around 2pm, and what's even more amazing is the fact that I woke up in a GREAT mood...the first time I've been in a good mood in days! So then I went and talked to my friend Beverley for awhile, and today was registration day, which is when everyone gets there school schedules and such. She'd already gone, so after awhile I went over to her house and hung out...I hadn't seen her in about 3 days, so that was very cool.
THEN I went to get registered and everything at about 5:30pm, and I was a little disappointed going there, because the guy that I am completely in love with wasn't going to be there (he's going to be a junior this year, and I'm going to be a sophomore...freshemen and sophomores have registration today, and the juniors and seniors had registration last week)...so I got there, and my brother, my mom and I were in line to get schedules, and I was looking around to see if I knew anyone there, which I didn't...so I turned back around, and someone came up to me and said "Hey!", and I swear I seriously did a double take, lol, it was the guy I like!! One of the first things he said to me (I actually don't know him very well...I only bet him about 2 weeks before the last school year ended...) was "Hey...I missed you!"!! And he gave me a hug :)
So I talked to him for awhile, and I got to show him my eyebrow piercing I got over the summer (I'm the kind of person who, when I like a guy, I'm afraid to change something on myself over the summer, because I'm afraid that they might completely hate it on me and I might never have a chance of that guy liking me...weird, I know, but it really does make sense...at least in my head ^^), and so I showed him and he liked it!! He actually said something like "wow! that looks really nice! when did you get it?" and, thank God, it seemed like he seriously liked it! very cool. :)
And after talking to him for awhile, he said "I'll see you in school!" (yay! ^^), and left to go back to his sister Angel (one of my best friends and supposedly the only reason why the guy I like was there...although if my brother were being registered for school and I'd already done it the week before, I don't think I would've come...or at least that's how Beverley sees it...lol, she thinks he was there just for me ^^), and then after I was done getting all my papers and stuff, Angel came over to me to say hi along with the guy I like and their mom, and while we were going over our schedules to see if we have any classes together (I think we both have World History I Honors together...not really sure though), I could see out of the corner of my eye that the guy I like (yeah, I'm not saying his name--it's for me to know and you to never find out :)) pointed to me and mumbled something to his mom...dunno what that was about (as hilarious as she is, I told Beverley this, and she said "he probably did that and said 'that's the girl I'm gonna marry!!", lmao).
Then after all that was over and I went home, I got to go back to Bev's house, and her parents weren't home, so we both had big bowls of chocolate ice cream while we talked about all of the above and exchanged schedules to see if we had any classes together (ever since I've known her, we've never had a single class together...but we always have lunch together, and that's the only period we have together this year...once again :?).
After coming home from Bev's house, I went home and turned on the radio, only to have Green Day's (obviously my most favorite band in the whole world) NEW SONG come on (ther album's not even out until September 21st, and this song wasn't supposed to get on the radio until tomorrow!!)!!! So I jumped around the room while blasting the song ("American Idiot"), and all the while I was recording it on my stereo, and I recorded the entire song! Yay!!
So now the day is coming to an end, and I have to go to sleep now because I have to wake up at 6 in the morning for an orthodontist appointment (for those of you who didn't previously know, I have braces)...oh well, at least today was the most perfect day I've had in a long time....lol, I can't WAIT to go back to school!!!
I hope all of you had as good a day as I've have :D
The End of Summer, The Beginning of Sophomore Year...
I go back to school in about 8 days (August 9th)... The downside-tests, schoolwork, homework The upside-friends, boys (well...more like "boy"...as in the one I like ^^), no more boredom!!!
Actually, I pretty much can't wait to go back!! I can hardly wait for registration day this Tuesday! lol (can't you tell what a fun summer I've had? :roll: )
Okay, anyways, enough about the future. Tonight I watched "Remember The Titans" (yes, I still watch the Disney channel, lol), and that's an awesome movie....I've seen it before, and I still think it's awesome! And now I have "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" stuck in my head, lol. And that is an awesome song ^^ Too bad I don't have any recordings of it...it's the most annoying thing when you get a song stuck in your head and you can't listen to the actual thing....oh well.
Haha, that song actually put me into a good mood!
I hope all you people here have had a good summer!!
Okie dokie....I finally remembered that I HAVE done something over the past couple of days!!! lol :roll:
I made a new website! It's still REALLY not done, but I think it's okay...
Pretty soon, it's gonna have some of my art up on it, plus some photos I've taken and the comic strip I'm working on (I've been working on the comic strip for about 2 weeks now....it could've been done in about 3 days (max.), but I've only been doing about a cel every other night, lol). So that should be interesting.
So, PLEEEEAAASSEEE go check it out!! Here's the URL:

And we're not gonna have any tables or any chairs or any napkins. None of that pussy shit. Just a big wide open black space. And all we're gonna serve is raw meat, right on the bone! And only men are going to eat there, naked men, sitting around a big giant camp fire, and no men's room either. You have to piss, you mark your territory like a wolf! And if some guy has a heart attack from eating too much meat, fuck him, we throw him in the fire! More meat for the other meat-eaters! Yeah!"
