A First For Me

Ok, here's the deal.

I'm 17 now, and have never, ever seen a scary movie.

Tonight I am going to resolve this. I am watching the Sixth Sense. My parents have assured me that I should be glad that I have a bathroom right next to my bed, as I will be afraid to leave the room afterwards.

My parents also told me that I had to watch the movie in the dark. Um, I'm keeping a night light on.

PPF...Ecky!

Past- The anatomy test was awful. Icky. Icky. Or rather, Ecky. However, my studying in the non-clique this morning prompted Nikki to ask everyone in her path if she could touch their sternocleidomastoid. Just because she thought it was a fun word. And she has no regard for what others find as awkward. Thus is her Nikkiness.

Present- I'm studying for my psych test which is on Thursday. Sigmund Freud was a dirty old man, let me just say.

Future- I have HOP tonight. Yayness. I less than three HOP. Except for that Alison and I often have to be told to zip it and pay attention. Okay, maybe "often" is a stretch. But we have fun.

Speaking of people in HOP, I am going on yet another excursion to Mansfield on Saturday. I'm getting THE DRESS!!! And this time, Alison is going with us. This should be fun.

*sinister and evil laugh*

Because I have nothing to say this morning....

* rolls eyes*

Based on your score, you will get married


5 Years From Now!

You will meet a very special person at the place you work. You will fall in love and end up spending the rest of your life with them. You both will be intelligent and goal oriented, and that will pass on to your kids.

Why does this keep happening?

So, randomly tonight, the ex of Mr.X, you know, the one who sent me hate mail last year, IM'd me out of the blue. Nice, right?

So we had a random conversation, like, she wanted to know if I had found something to wear for the v-day banquet, and then the interrogation began.

just curious why did you and MX break up????

did he ask you out or did you ask him?

was it just that you guys just grew apart or something else?

And then, the winner that had me rushing for the Invisible button-

ok i don't mean to be personal but did he ever kiss you or hold hands?? cause when we dated we held hands once and we dated 4 1/2 yrs but he seemed like he was to scared to do anything! it kinda bothered that's why i broke up with him and he hardly ever called! guys are suppose to make the first move but he didn't seem like he wanted to do anything!! lol what do you think?


This is the part where I say, um, thank you for your conversation, but I gotta go to bed now.

And then you delete the screenname and block it.

*shudder*

Things I Am Wondering On This Snowy Morning

1. How the muffin you guys have never heard of Heath Ledger. Seriously. Have you not watched 10 Things I Hate About You? Or Knight's Tale? Or the Patriot? (Brokeback Mountain doesn't count. I shall only focus on the fact that he met his ex-wife there and they had a kid. The movie never happened.)
   
2. Where I can find a (cheap) red dress or red skirt.
3. How ironic is it that he met his WIFE on the set of Brokeback Mountain? That just seems to contradict itself. That just hit me. The irony is not lost.
   

My Musings Over Coffee

So, I'm having one of those weeks that has kept me in perpetually deep thought for the most part. Deep thought over nothing. And everything. Some are fickle, that people roll their eyes and say "Oh, she's a teenager and will grow out of it." and some of them are huge decisions that will affect me forever.

I found out about a week ago that I had failed the second quarter of Algebra 2. I was given two choices. I could either continue Algebra 2 in a different class, which we would have to ask the principal to do, or I could move to Bridges, and retake Algebra next year, and still get a math credit for the year. No, this is not as easy a decision as it sounds. I did end up moving down to Bridges, but the whole thing was an extreme pain in the buttocks. I still don't like the idea of me wasting a whole semester.

While we're on the subject of things wrong with school, did I mention I got a D on the Anatomy Exam?

I did however, end up getting a B- on my KAP History exam. Snaps for this great blessing from the Lord most high.

I also found out that I can be starting college next year. I can do post-secondary and have a year of college done when I graduate. This actually was a no-brainer. I am so doing that.

So, because of that, I signed up for the ACT last night. In April. That scares the poo out of me. (P.S. That may have been my proudest moment as a blogger EVER).

Also, Friday, I found out that Brittany, one of my friends from quizzing, is getting married August 16. When did this happen? My friends that I used to play war games with in the lobbies of churches for bible quizzing aren't supposed to be getting married! Me and Brittany used to write letters back and forth about 9YG! When did my friends turn into grown-ups?

And then, as with all my pondering, we have the guy scene. This is just too messed up to even comprehend. I wish that I didn't like anyone at the second. Because it's a pain in the butt. And I always like the ones I can't have. Which is why I will probably be going solo to the V-day Banquet. All though people are telling me to ask one person in particular. Who would say no. And would make life extremely awkward and painful. So what else is new?

So, I'm running out of time. Bus will be here soon and my brain is still in overdrive. Possibly more later. But who knows?

Ligers and Fluffies

When we were in Minerva, there was this closet in the fellowship hall that was full of all kinds of goodies. I would often venture in there for prizes and other fun stuff for my Sunday School class. It had a helium tank, a box of McD's toys, pipe cleaners, you know, all that fun stuff. Anyway, one day I was in there with my brother and sister exploring and I found this marionette puppet in the very back under a bunch of boxes. It was mostly white, with some pink on it, and big eyes. Michael and Gabrielle were enthralled and, having never seen one before, were convinced that it was a real animal. Of course, I was definately not going to tell them otherwise. The strings on the puppet, I told them, were a leash, and when they asked me what kind of animal it was, I quickly replied that it was a very special animal called a 'fluffy'. They then named the puppet Fluffy the Fluffy. Creative, huh? To this day, they still think that Fluffy the Fluffy is a real animal and I have definitely not told them otherwise.

Despite Fluffy sitting in my room (we took him home for the holidays one year and forgot about him) I didn't really think about that until today. My friend, Emily, writes stories and she was writing a story for the school literary magazine (called Vedette) in which someone gets sucked into another weird diminsion (she's into Sci-Fi). And she needed to know what creatures should go into the dimension. I insisted that Ligers needed to be there, but she informed me that Ligers were just play stupid, and even if they weren't, weren't they copyrighted? So, while I was sulking, Krystal, another girl at the table (there's four of us, Rachel, Me, Emily, and Krystal) was describing a fluffy character and I about jumped out of my seat.

"FLUFFY!"
"Er...what?"

I went on to describe Fluffy the Fluffy to Emily and now Fluffy the Fluffy is going to be published in a Sci-Fi masterpiece. Which, knowing Emily, will probably end up being published in a 'Best Of' collection in about 20 years. (She's like, the next Bradbury. Seriously.)

See how boring my life is? I'm posting about inanimate objects!
