Well, I haven't blogged anything lately. It is probably due to the fact that I did the unthinkable. I MADE A MYSPACE. yes. i know. i'm ashamed. moving on.
I have a lot and nothing to say all at the same time. How wonderfully convenient, no? Well, we watched our history video today in history. It was pretty horrific. Legally Blonde couldn't get the box on her computer to make our video bigger even though I knew how, but you couldn't seriously expect me to tell her, thus allowing the amplification of our face zits. No thank you. Not a chance.
In other worlds, during this lovely three day weekend, I did absolutely nothing. In fact, the most interesting thing that happened, was the thing that pissed me off the most. I will rehash it for you: So, I was in my room listening to my iPod when i saw this red stuff on my carpet. I thought it was probably my makeup all smeared everywhere. And then I saw a LOT of it. I thought, well, that is definitely not makeup anymore, and I checked and uncovered the unknown substance. So imagine my horror when I noticed that there was: 1) Blood on my carpet. 2) Unknown blood on my carpet and 3) Blood on MY CARPET. So naturally I got really freaked out when I noticed it was new and trailing everywhere. It was a bit like a horror movie really. I was unconscionably frightened that I might possibly find a dead raccoon hidden beneath clothes or something. I then looked and saw it on my iPod after I had just put it down and was ready to kick some as when I looked down at my bleeding foot. It looked pretty disgusting. Well, that left room for more observations such as: 1) Well that solves the mystery of the unknown origin of the blood. 2) My foot was bleeding. and 3) Since when and how was my foot bleeding?!? So, interestingly enough, you would think my first concern would be the soon to be scar on my foot, however, it was the epiphany that if, indeed, the blood was coming from my foot, and that it was all over my room, naturally one could assume that blood would have been trailing my foot wherever my foot went. And since I did not know how long this had lasted, one could only concur that blood would be found all down the hallway, in the kitchen, and on my mother's cream carpet. Naturally, one could assume. Unfortunately all these assumptions were correct and i spent over an hour trying to scrub it all out. While doing this I reflected upon how cruel of a joke it was to make blood stain. Just imagine some poor old woman in pain who just got stabbed by some evil guy robbing her of her china, and she is too much in pain to bother with cleaning her carpet, but if she doesn't it will forever stain. Evil joke, that is. How unfair is it that I have to clean all of that mess especially since I didn't feel the cut or know where it came from. (I still don't.) And am I now a hemophiliac because where did all that blood come from. My foot looked entirely mangled, but after a nice soak in the red sea (aka previously clear bathtub) I deduced the size of the cut of my foot to be that of a papercut. And even after that when my dad came home he still didn't have neosporin. Don't you think he would've learned to carry that after my compass in the knee accident earlier this year? And all he managed to say was, "oh, don't die tonight, because if you do they'll think I'm the one who tried to clean up all the blood." Really. How unbelievable. I die and HE gets the credit for cleaning up the blood. My foot is now probably infected with some type of disease, but at least the carpet is clean.
In other matters, I am going to see Pirates 3 with my friend Bella this weekend. And introduce her to some fabulous music. I heard the first two hours of Pirates was crap but the last hour was good. and then i heard there was no real ending. I swear to god, you must be $%^#@!% joking. We will also possibly produce a video involving a video with music as the choice of audio. Otherwise known as a music video.
I kind of had a row with Sanara today as well. I was talking with her, Berry, and Vikpik and Flower and she gave me this weird look and I went off on her. Honestly I'm tired of her giving me those weird ass looks like I'm an idiot whenever I talk about anything, even if it's logical! At least Vikpik knew what I was talking about. But now I'll probably apologize because I feel bad about it, and also because she has my camera. That I may have to confiscate for this weekend. Hopefully she'll be finished using it by then. Clearly today can only be described as &*#%*$@! naturally. and to add to that, we are back on our regularly scheduled load of history hw. ahh! but, on the bright side, i DID get my spanish teacher to sign my permission slip for the holocaust museum, and last year, it took me like three days to get her to sign it.
anyways, yeah, this blog is just depressing me. goodbye.

Destination D-Day
Oh my god. It is absolutely wonderfully amazing to be home. I haven't had any free time since Thursday and it is now the following Wednesday. Really. So I have A LOT to say.
Friday was G'Brella and Brookers birthday. I got them both Starbucks giftcards as a suggestion from Hector. I don't exactly know if they like coffee but there is always food. Anyways, we went to Pump it Up which is some jungle gym like place (don't ask.) But it was really fun. Zoella, Vikpik, Berry, Lolly, Savvy, Jess, Jamsand, Flower, and some others were there. I got a ride from Vikpik and Berry and we arrived late, which is in translation, on time. We went around in all sorts of random contraptions and we got our picture taken AFTER. Typical, after you've messed your hair up in relay races. We filmed part of our now "deleted scene" battle scene in there, but it was so tragic that it should never be mentioned again. Which is why it is a "deleted scene." Not that our current one is any better by any fraction of a sort. Anyways, after we went to the hotel Brella owns to watch a movie. Sixteen Candles won the vote and we saw that. Then it was late, and some other stuff happened and then I went home and slept.
On Saturday we worked on our project at 3:00 and finished around 7:00 but we only got a few scenes done. It was very tiring but pretty fun. I did most of the directing. I also got to play the drums which was the highlight of my day because I love playing the drums, but they were her brothers and alas, not mine.
We left early on Saturday because Diva and I went to go see an operetta our school was putting on called "The Purple Polka Dotted Predicament." I still had my lipstick wound on my shoulder and I'm sure it looked really gross and I can't tell you how many times I had to say it was only lipstick. Anyways the play was original and written by the kids in the vocal and music conservatory at school but it was... ok, i mean it wasn't that bad. We kind of left during intermission which I feel really bad about but we had ADD issues going on and we wanted to see the EVA art show because our friends had artwork in there. We started off looking for Gelly's artwork and we couldn't find any and then we found this huge picture of her face, and we went, "well, i guess that's hers then." but it wasn't! It was Lirpa's. There were TONS of pictures of Gelly EVERYwhere and they were all Lirpa's!!! And they aren't even best friends, so it was a bit creepy, but the pictures were pretty good.
Sunday we worked from 11:30 until 11:00. On a school night. Yeah. And we didn't even finish it then. It took us over five hours to film three four minute scenes which is utterly ridiculous really. I edited the rest Monday after school, and we lost a lot of footage that we tried to replace, but we couldn't get all of it.
Yesterday after school I also worked on it after school until 11:30 which is why I got no sleep. I finally finished the editing and putting in the subtitles, but the audio kept going off so I had to recut and paste the audio several times. There are a lot of my crap improv scenes and this has high potential for being humiliating tomorrow, you don't even know. Then we couldn't get the video to burn onto a DVD and it was due today. Brella even skipped first period today to work on getting it on a DVD with her dad and all they could do was get it on a flash drive but Legally Blonde wouldn't accept it and now its going down a letter grade, so the highest we can get tomorrow is a B and we won't even get that because its unlikely we get 100% for that B. I am unbelievably pissed because I worked my ass off on that stupid project and should get more than a flipping B. This is history, not flipping video film. I wish we just had a test. But no, no test, instead we get this crap. I would have got an A on the test and finished it in one period. God her class is ridiculous.
On Monday after school I had to wait for my dad to pick me up and so I went riding around in Hectors car thingy with Carebear and her friend. It was really fun. We also got to see his photo album from Europe. At one point he asked us if we wanted babies and we got really confused but it turns out the "babies" were really tiny gummy bears that were SOOOO cute! Then I got off when I saw my friends and I talked to Jess, Magnet, Jamsand, and Lexer. Anyways, apparently I knew magnet before this year which I had no idea of. Apparently we even had conversations in the quad. My memory is ridiculously crap. This has happened to me so many times. With Brookers, and with Gelly. Well, if I ever make any new friends, I'll just go "do i know you?" first. Anyways my dad also bought another new TV again. Good lord. He just bought a new one two months ago. I don't even watch TV. In fact, Brella doesn't even know how to turn on her TV. Anyways, he put it right in front of our other TV and it looks ridiculous. When my mum gets home she is going to kill him. He also bought lots of speakers and other things as such. I was stuck in the car until 9:30. When he finally got back, I said I was really angry that he dragged me along because he said he needed my help when he clearly didn't. And then he said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I'll go buy you those speakers you want for your iPod." The nerve!!! Trying to buy me off! Although I did shut up because I do want those speakers, and it would be beneficial for my pocket book if I did not have to pay for them.
We also had spanish presentations yesterday but ours was pretty sad. There was some really pro ones though. We also had to come up with ten original questions to ask ten people in our class and there were some weird questions. I got really confused on one question where someone asked me how old i was when i first learned to talk and it pretty much went like this:
"How old were you when you learned to talk?
"Two."
"Two??"
"Four."
"FOUR?!"
"Yeah, why not four?"
"Uh... ok..."
"I DON'T KNOW!"
I then realised that it's common sense that you should be capable of talking before you enter kindergarten. Don't know, that's just my opinion. That sounds like a German word. I don't like it.
We had dinner at Brella's house and I told her I didn't particularly like living in Italy and she was very surprised. I told her I liked France, and then I said I didn't like Germany, and she said, "Most people don't." Which was hilarious but not good if you were the german person in our video. Yes, we actually have German and Italian in our video, even though we are supposed to be the allied side. Right.
Gelly is going to go to kinko's to see if she can get the flash drive turned into a DVD. I sure as hell hope so. I will argue my ass of if we get a C for it being two days late. Today we watched some videos in class which were hilarious. Mads and the knave's were really funny. I also liked the others. One had a perfume ad that was pretty brill. Oh dear, ours is very boring. But at least Brella can now see that I am not the only camera person who zooms in on peoples faces. Right.
Interestingly as well, today Frenchy came over and felt it necessary to tell me something important. Which was that my friend Nettie cheated. Again. This time on a random guy with another random guy. How lovely. I don't know what he thinks I can do about it, but it's always awkward discussing those things.
Anyways, I've been at this for a while and I think I'll just let the day continue to see what else can possibly happen. adios for now. i am leaving.

Side note: I've also forgotten about noticias again but then, I wasn't even home... I was in someone else's home working really very hard on a crap project so... whoever complains can stuff it.

Go Fry Asparagus
Well, I've completely forgotten about noticias and they're due tomorrow.
And then there's the problems of our video project. G'Brella and I were going to work on it today but we decided to just tape everything on Saturday and Sunday. We procrastinate wayyyy too much.
Then theres G'Brella and Brookers party tomorrow. I still have to get them a present. I can't think of a single thing to get them. No gift cards or bath and body works. That's the whole of everyone else's pressies. I don't think clothes is a good idea. So maybe... I really don't know but I have to pick it out Friday. Oh dear, and then theres the problem of actually getting a ride... oh wow, tomorrows gonna be one hectic day...
That reminds me of when Brookers went off and babysat and the kid she was bs-ing for wanted to let the dog in the house saying it was super friendly, and she didn't let him, so when she wasn't looking he let the dog in and said 'attack!' which is quite hilarious by anyone's standards except for brookers who ended up with a big dog bite on her leg. which wasn't good.
I compiled burned two cds today and yesterday. Took all day as well.
Well, I think I did my chem test wrong. What with all those pHs. No, really. It shouldn't have been all that hard. I just need to start paying attention.
We messed up our lab in chem today for the second time. Our experiments always only work the second time we do them. I swear, we don't change anything, it just refuses to work the first time. I have NO idea why. It is a mystery unto us all.
Today everyone was in AP testing for world history so our spanish class only had 7/13 people in. They all eventually returned later on in the class though. It was interesting. This kid, Magnet, went and cut his mouth with his spoon from his ice cream. interesting. Somehow our entire class was about insults and bad language type things. Interesting I tell you, really. My favorite one has to be, "Vete a freir esparragas." WHich is, "Go Fry Asparagus." Which makes no sense in English. Cloud came in rather late and ended up in some corner and refused to move up. Yeah, I heard the AP testing was really hard...
I also did manage to write the ending for our spanish script. It's pretty ace if I might say so myself. A little bit, Dun Dun Dun Dun! - y, but otherwise brill.
I accidentally dragged Mads and Nica into this speech thing by this billionaire guy at our school because there was free pizza. but we had to end up staying our whole lunch. i felt really bad. but there was free pizza!
I ended up giving Berry and Vikpik a ride today super late however. It was an interesting drive I must say. Can't really remember what we were talking about though. Oh yes, there was this thing in history where you had to pick 4 people to kill out of ten. If those ten were to be the last ten humans on earth, or six really. It was a bit of an odd assignment I must say especially after having just covered the holocaust, but maybe that was the point. I didn't really see a correlation, as she said the point of it was something to do with assumptions.
Alright, I'm sure I had some other stuff to say but I'm a bit tired of the computer and would much rather listen to some musica and so with lovely wishes, sign off.

Animal Crackers In My Soup
Well, today was interesting. Ish.
I wonder what was up with everyone buying animal crackers today. It was weird. I guessed my friend Zo was an only child based upon the fact that she acted like one. Not that it was bad or anything, but I'm sure you know what they act like. Same with my friend Dani, who was youngest, and Cookie who was in the middle. They thought it was strange but really, if you pay attention to their behaviours, you can tell.
We also changed seats today which was funny cos I'm still next to Eva but we went even further back which was funny since she couldn't even see from where she was before. You'd think the teacher would have noticed with all of the moving up before, but no, she didn't.
My friend Gummy thinks I should dye my hair lighter now that I've a tan, however that makes absolutely NO sense. In fact I may have to end up dying it darker now that it looks lighter. Why, haven't you heard, I like brown.
Presentations for articles today in spanish as well per usual, NOOOO I just missed noticias. They ended four minutes ago!!! GRRRRR!!!! That's really annoying. Anyway, naturally Jess gave me the hard-to-understand article. I printed her out an understandable one. Honesty. Mine had something to do with Russia, the US, and some disagreement with special ops regarding missiles or something as of such.
Pretty much all that happened really was that it was a regular day. I did see Sanara after school today though and we inevitably got onto the subject of the beatles. I do not know how this happened. Ok, I like the beatles, really I do, but I just don't LOVE them. I mean, they're really great and all, but I'm just not obsessed with them like the whole of my school is. If I could just go one day, one day without hearing the beatles mentioned (or their respective names) , that would be nice. Honestly, you'd think they were all chummy with them or something. "Did you know, Ringo came up with this song when he was on a cruise to Malibu..." That's great. But tell me in another lifetime please. Oh no, don't do that. It'd be like a curse! Well, if you don't understand me, or just "disagree with my opinion" to but it as others say, then just think about hearing a song you like, OVER and OVER and OVER again until it drives you crazy. I'm guessing you're thinking, "...but the beatles could NEVER drive me crazy..."
Anyways, now that I've spent all this time talking about them, I think I'll be off for some beatle-free music listening. Now that I'm thinking about it, I wonder why they decided to name themselves the 'beatles.' That's a bit odd, don't you think? No wait, don't tell me why, oh dear. Goodbye. I may honestly end up looking that up. This is sad. So very sad.

I've Got The Browns
Hmm... I'm thinking of buying a guitar. It's interesting. I think it'd be fun but then again i've had a violin, and a flute and i didn't play either. In fact, I actually spent hours ditching music class in primary school to forego the humiliation of not being able to blow into the flute correctly. In fact I also have a piano, and I can do fine on that but I'm not into practising that often. So I wonder if it would be a mistake... I think I might buy one thats $100 dollars which is fairly cheap but hopefully decent. I guess I'm going to have to use my own money on this one especially after having ditched three musical instruments already, my parents are never going to get me this one even for the holidays. Then again I've only got $170 right now and I still have to buy my friends their birthday presents and I really wanted a pair of boots and some linen pants. But I guess that's more fall attire. Interestingly enough Fall is my favorite season. Oddly, I'm obsessed with brown. I don't know why. It's just my favourite. I like brown hair, brown eyes, tans, and brown clothes. And brown makeup. I just love brown for some unknown reason. It's interesting. The only brown thing I really can't stand is chocolate. I like gold a lot though... So I guess I could wait. So maybe I should get the guitar... well, I might. Wait til I tell my mum. She'll go insane and INSIST I won't play it. Which is slightly/highly possible. Maybe now would not be a good time to tell her I really wanna try the drums. That's a no then.
Huh. There's some bhangra music playing in the background. I never knew my neighbours listened to that. Hey, you learn something new everyday. That kind of
Anyways, new kind of subject. Molly drew a henna tattoo on my ankle at lunch. It's an "ohm" apparently. I like it. It's actually very well done.
On another note, I've actually read an entire biography on Mussolini. Which is pathetic cos all I have to do is a five minute interview. I was working on it after school with Gelly, Diva, G'Brella, and Lirpa. They had sports segments and something on Norman Rockwell on Gelly's side I think. Anyways, we stayed after until around 5:30 and I just sat there and read a book on the fool. Really, but I took some good notes! I also have to do a script for the battle of Normandy and work on the live concert segment and obtaining instruments. I'm playing the drums and we've got a set of drums, two keyboards, and a guitar lined up in the instruments aisle. Also a weird horn, a tambourine and some accordions that we probably won't be using. G'Brella is going on Vocals. I already wrote two commercials but we still have to film them. We're filming the mussolini interview thursday officially and i've still got to write it. And I've got to edit the entire project together with Gelly by Sunday. It has to be around twenty minutes which isn't too bad for about ten sections. I think we had about three weeks to do it so far. Although it's only just started really.
Gelly wrote a really cute song today as well. It was kind of Beatles and Alice in Wonderland-esque but nice none the less. My favourite line was: plastic bottles melting from the eyes of a clown. I don't think she'd kill me if I post that line down. It sticks with you. It doesn't really make any sense, her song, but it's still very nice. Also, it hasn't got a melody, but she insists its a song, but that is Gelly for you.
I think I need to start writing some songs as well. I remember actually writing one about clown once. It was tres interesante.
I also have a tan/sunburn thing going on. It's pretty obvious by the way everyone mentioned it today. I also have to get on with polishing my nails. I haven't even decided the colour but I've taken to beige as its pretty neutral but I might want something out there later.
I just ate a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. It was horrific. I don't know why but my body doesn't do well with sweet things. They always hurt my stomach and make me feel sick. It's ridiculous how my dad bans me from all sweets when I'm younger then all of a sudden goes "I've decided to only buy sweets so you should now be happy." Really. I don't like this program I'm on.
I have an interesting "focus." Sometimes I get so into things that you can't deter me from it and I just keep doing them, and other times I just can't focus on anything. I need inspiration for anything I do. If I'm disrupted on this task I'm really into, chances are I will never be that into it again. Which is sad really. Which probably explains why I like change so much. There we are. Oh dear, thank goodness. It was only my henna tattoo I rubbed. I thought I'd gotten a scar or something.
I think I really need to start reading something (unrelated to Hit and Miss.) I think my vocabulary skills are waning or at the very least my spelling has been quite affected by the computer. I can't believe I just spelled "tattoo" wrong, for the second time in a row. It's really not all that difficult.
Anyways, this is a gorgeous rendition of part of "Fields Of Gold." Nadine is amazing and I simply love her singing.

Potluck Lunch
I think I've been a bit sour today. Blah.
I didn't go to most of first period today and I missed a test in Chemistry but I'll make it up later, besides I'm just starting to understand it.
Math was pretty uneventful but the class next door sure were having a blast. It was Spanish 5, period 2. I wonder what goes on in that class that it's so fun. I have Spanish 5, period 3 with the same teacher and it never sounds like that. I mean seriously, what's up? Ok, maybe a few times...
We had to write an essay in spanish that was supposed to be 200-250 words but there was all this space to write and an hour, and then she says, it CAN'T be OVER 250 words. And I was like, crap because I'd already had about 500. So I just rewrote the essay in ten minutes and I got it to 223 words! YEAH! that's right. We finished watching a movie in period four that was tres triste. Wow, I just combined two languages right there, or three.
They actually have a sign in front of a lawyers firm that says, "Life's Short. Get a Divorce." Wow. Tan interesante I must say.
We had a potluck at lunch but everybody came and just dropped their stuff and left so there wasn't really anybody to eat it. It was an interesting mix of items consisting of: saltine crackers, brownies, craisins, raisins, seaweed, and a cashew candy bar. Yep. Interesting. Like I said.
Most people went to go see the battle of the bands, but it wasn't good for the health of my ears. Haha, it wasn't that bad. It just happens that some vocalists would probably do better toca-ing something rather than vocalizing.

Innocent Tragedies
I didn't go to school today. I had a major migraine. Which really worries me because I saw something on the news that said that every time you get a migraine, you could be getting brain damage and I get them quite a lot, so that can't possibly be good. I think it was actually because it was so flipping hot and then i decided to dance for about two hours and got overheated, especially after the hot shower, i should've just left it cold, or lukewarm because drastic temperature changes aren't good either. Anyway, so I woke up around fifty times, but I woke up around 12:30 when it was officially gone. Which was nice. I recorded a song today which was nice, and I actually think the first recording when the best. Or the third. Can't really decide.
I saw a movie called Catch and Release yesterday which was weird because of the overwhelming attempts at being creative. I swear to god if I have to see ONE MORE movie where they start off fighting and giving glares and then make out I'm gonna go crazy. I'm telling you, the only people that happens to in real life are people who watch too many movies.
My Movie Watching Trivia:
I tend to like the evil characters in movies
I usually like the promiscuous character rather than the innocent one.
I like people who can admit their faults and show that they have some.
I typically like the weird character who always says stuff at the wrong time.
I love it when there are open endings.
Even if I don't like a movie, I might just love it because of the soundtrack (aka Marie Antoinette)
Sadly while I generally like the bad characters I myself apparently look too innocent. Which is sort of tragic, but good at the same time I guess. I feel really bad now because when I was younger I used to do all this stuff and blame it on my cousin even if I did it and everybody believed me. Actually I think my grandma saw me break something one time, and I got away with it on account of: "He told me to." Which is just plain wrong. Not that I was complaining or anything.
Anyways, I missed the makeups for the high school exit exam. NO i did not fail it, I just was absent for the math part. But I heard I did really well on the english bit which was nice.
