Scrumptious Sunday

I haven't been doing such a spectacular job keeping up with this blog. But nobody's perfect.

Something really exciting happened to me yesterday. As you may or may not(probably not) know, I have a laptop in my room that is not truly a "laptop". For some reason, it won't connect to the internet(which is what I need the most) when it is disconnected from the power cable. So, it is incapable of going mobile. Therefore, it is basically a regular desktop computer, which is extremely inconvenient for me. Well, my Mum rebooted everything and restarted the whole system i hopes that maybe the orange light that indicated not connection would magically morph into green, which translates into internet connection. Just as she had expected, it worked afterwards. However, the light turned orange the first time I tried to remove it from the power cable. My excitement vanished in about five minutes. Sad, is it not? The light is currently orange, and I must keep it plugged into the power cable. I long for the days when I can safely take my laptop to my bed without losing internet connection. Oh, the things I long for.

On another note, Jon and Kate should get off the air. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the television series because the children are so adorable, but their family and marriage matters more to me than fame, which they have obviously chosen. I understand that it must be difficult for them to raise the eight kids, financially, but is it truly worth their happiness? The family used to be inseparable, and now... I don't know. If anyone saw the Season 5 premiere(admit, I planned my whole evening accordingly), there was this one scene at the children's birthday party where one of the younger girls told Jon that they didn't want him to leave anymore. Daddy, I don't want you to leave anymore. Isn't that heartbreaking? And apparently Aunt Jodi has had the kids personally tell her that they do not like the cameras being with them all the time and on their multiple vacations. These children have grown up with the cameras and spotlights since they were born, and I feel that it is tragic to see their family break apart because of shallow rumors. JOIN THE FIGHT FOR JON AND KATE'S MARRIAGE AND FAMILY!

That concludes this blog post for today. :)

Troublesome Tuesday

Hello ninja/blog friends,

Today was an unwelcoming day back to school after the holiday yesterday. But, I got over it. It wasn't too big of a deal, just some project working and awkward lunch eating and basketball playing and video watching and poem reading. You know, the usual.

I'd rather not talk about too much drama. I'm trying to keep this post positive.

Anyways, I had a question. You know red onions, right? Well, I had salmon for dinner with rice and vegetables, and we always put out onions as a side treat. Red onions were on the menu this evening. However, the onions were most certainly more of a purple hue than a red. Go ahead. Look them up. They're purple.

I believe thirteen push ups yesterday. yay!

Anyone else see the season 5 premiere of Jon and Kate Plus 8? It's so sad. It's completely obvious that they are not together anymore. Everything about it breaks my heart. I remember watching their show and seeing how close they were, and then the episode where they renewed their vows. And now, everything between them seems to have crumbled. I truly feel so strongly about their situation and I wish I could do something. I feel so pathetic for caring so much. But I truly do.

So much for keeping this post positive.

I'm trying to add a post it note widget on the sidebar, so ninja friends can leave little messages.

Satisfactory Saturday

Actually, it's going to be Sunday in about half an hour. I was working on a few school assignments, but I decided to take a break. So, here I am. On my break.

Z sent me this really long, heartfelt letter of apology and touchyness, but I'm not going to go into that since I'd like to remain happy. Special ninja friends, you may contact me separately if you want to know more.

Today was a rather ordinary day. No special perks, like I would have hoped for. However, I did get this really cute dress and a pastel pink tank top. That's definitely a plus.

My braces have been really hurting lately. They're getting caught on the inside of my mouth in the way back. And then I have to do this weird maneuver with my cheek that involves blowing it up like a balloon until the metal sticking into my mouth releases its clutches. Talk about a run on sentence.

As the days left of school dwindles down into nearly nothing, the summer fever is starting to catch on. I'm ridiculously giddy at the thought of sleeping in, no homework, and hopefully no stress. On the other hand, I have a lot of preparing to do for next year. I'm taking summer classes to get ahead, along with taking this language class and dance. For dance, I'm going to prep myself by doing a full on work out routine every night. this includes stretching, the plank(look this move up), push ups, sit ups, and whatever else I happen to think up. So far, I did 5 flawless push ups the first night, 6 the second, and 11 yesterday. Sounds like improvement to me. But hey, I'm weak. I'd rather start small and amount up to a big amount of YES than start out big and end up with a large amount of NOT SO MUCH. You know?

My break must come to an end, for work refuses to do itself, unfortunately. I shall leave you now and revisit tomorrow.

Sweet dreams.

Freaky Friday

I had an okay day. Definitely better then yesterday, though. I saw The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button today. It was brilliant. Whoever devised such an intricate plot is truly a genius. I sat there in awe, despite the fact that I fell asleep three times. I was just really tired. Otherwise, it was amazing, and now I understand why it was nominated for so many awards. The young Benjamin was absolutely adorable, even though he was as shriveled as a prune. But he is a darn cute prune. Let me tell you that. And when he grew younger, he become such a handsome and wonderful person. I wish I could meet Mr. Button. Too bad that's never going to happen. It was heartbreaking to watch him grow young until his death came to him as an infant. Tear-jerker at the end. I would recommend that to anyone looking for a little something-something.

Z is trying to be friends with me, but I seriously don't think I can do that. He's throwing me through a loop here. I don't know if I want to be friends with someone who can't seem to accept the fact that we're "friends". He keeps complimenting me and talking to me online like something more than friends, even though I've told him multiple times to stop. I feel like I'm getting no respect for him. I know I've been a jerk to him, but I'm finished with trying to make him feel better. I say this a lot, but he never seems to get it. When he told me I was killing him, I said fine, good bye. and logged off. fine. if i'm killing him then fine. I can't stand him right now.

Well, that kind of murders the mood for anything happy in this post. So, I'll just leave everyone to wallow in self pity at this point.

NOOOOO

Well, today pretty much was down the toilet-o.

Adam did not win and I was sad and I teared up and there you go. But you know what? He's going to end up more successful. Remember Taylor Hicks and Katherine McPhee? Katherine totally should have won, but Taylor did. Where is Taylor now? EXACTLY.

My family was broken into this huge fight that was pretty bad, I'm keeping that personal. But it's just depressing going into a home that has doom clouds casting a shadow all over it.

And I had to run in physical education. That is not okay with me. Not okay, I say. Running needs to go away and poof into nothing. But I don't care about running, I just truly wish I was flexible. JG, can i have your flexibility in exchange for my bubbles? I'll need it for dance.

Just like MB says,

LONG LIVE LAMBERT

Wobbly Wednesday

Today is Hump Day! You all know what that means, right?!????!??


I GOT 100% ON MY SCIENCE QUIZ!!!! I normally get good grades in all my classes, but science seems to lack the luster. So, I am extremely thrilled about that.

Z asked to be friends, and I just said that I was done with him and maybe if we took more time. When I wanted to be friends, he didn't want to. Now that he does, I've moved on. Way on. But then, my friend groups are kind of divided. But fine, I'll be "friends", but I don't want to talk or be within five feet of him.

On a happier note, AMERICAN IDOL FINALE I LOVE YOU ADAM PLEASE WIN BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T I'LL CRY AND I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING I PROBABLY WOULD CRY AND I'LL DIE AND I'LL SIGH AND ON AND ON AND ON AND I'M WEARING MY JASON MRAZ SHIRT TODAY IN HOPES THAT THE RUMOR OF HIM BEING ON THE FINALE OF THE WINNING OF ADAM LAMBERT IS TRUE BECAUSE THAT WILL JUST MAKE ME SO MUCH MORE BUBBLIER THAN YOU COULD EVER EVEN IMAGINE IN THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE

Telepathic Tuesday

Thanks to Chattypatra who said I have good taste in music. For the record, I'm Yours by Jason Mraz is my absolute absolute absolute absolute(too precious to waste time typing commas) favorite song in the WORLD. I love it. I listen to it at least once a day. My classmates and I were singing it earlier today. And then I played it on my phone about thirty minutes ago while completing mathematics homework. Ew. Anyways, I feel like some little butterfly soaring through the air while listening to the soothing voice of JM. Not quite that touchy-feely though. A wonderful sensation infects my entire body. And that's the good kind of infection. Is it true he'll be on the American Idol finale? Hmm.. I have that to look forward to tonight. Well, look at that, an entire paragraph dedicated to my favorite male artist. But I really owe it all to AMS, who introduced him to me and took me to his concert. THANKS FOR SHOWING ME THE BEST SINGER ON THE PLANET ASIDE FROM THE WICKED CAST AND A FEW OTHER EXCEPTIONS, AMS!

In other news, there is no other news. Oh yeah, I'm trying to see how long I can go without turning the television on in my room. I started Sunday or yesterday. One or the other. Let's just say Monday. So far so good, just like Mrs. C's children(inside joke with JG).

I'll just leave it at that. Oh yes, ever heard of the song Mr. Brightside by The Killers?! Love that song. Just saying. I'll go now. Have a fabulous day before hump day.

Monday Madness

Well, no new spicy stuff that I can comfortable post. JAJAJAJAJJAJAJAJA. Secret shout out.

Anyways, back to normal school schedule, which is truly unfortunate. I just a delicious supper of grilled salmon with rice and broccoli. And of course watermelon afterwards. You know what they say, it cleans your pallet, whatever that is.

Earlier this afternoon, I had a dance audition for my new school, and I'm really hoping I get in. I won't know until 20 something more days!!! AGH! That's going to drive me nuts.

Hmm.... I hate science? I guess that's something interesting to say. I'm really not in the mood for discussing much. Most likely because I have nothing much to say. Well, I love Jason Mraz(that's a given to all of my friends), and The Bachelorette is on tonight for the two hour season premiere. Yes, I will be tuning in on that. Yes, I am lame like that.

As for Z, I'm pretty sure everything is on the right tracks. Now, to figure out what I'd like to do with my life. :)

Best wishes for the day before hump day.

Confusion

Hi there. I tried posting Friday night, but the mean blogger website was looping and simply refused to redirect me. Being stupid little me, it didn't occur to me to write down what I was going to post. I had some pretty big news to post, I think. So, maybe I'll just write a summary of my life starting with Friday.

FRIDAY

Beach trip was seriously awesome. I absolutely loved it. But I'm officially on the angry side regarding Z. He would literally speed away as fast as his feet would let him without bursting into a full sprint if I was within twenty feet of him. Why can't we just be mature about this?!


SATURDAY

I went to one of my best friend's younger sister's belated birthday party. It was a formal tea party. Everyone wore dresses and we painted nails and fixed hair and PINKIES UP and watched movies and it was just a very cute girl's party. I love the littles ones; they were all so funny and friendly. And they get really attatched. The only thing that was horrible was that AMS couldn't come. RC and I missed her so much and thought of her! I HOPE YOU'RE READING THIS AMS. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! <3>

TODAY
I am seriously confused. I need some enlightenment while I'm in my vulnerable stage. AMS, you got a facebook, right? Nothing wrong with that, but now the site it haunting me. SO many times in that past have I had multiple friends tell me to get a myspace, which I still believe is morally incorrect and dangerous. If you have not met me, you don't understand. I am really freaked out about that kind of thing, which is why I got a blog, so I don't have to post pictures and blah. I believe I have three or four friends with a facebook. And then I opened my e-mail which has always seemed to innocent to me. And then.... I got an e-mail from my aunt asking me to join. MY AUNT. SHE EVEN POSTED A PICTURE!!! HELLLOOO! If you knew her, you would be very shocked about this. And it's a picture with her reaching her arm across her body to place it on her shoulder. I was like... umm... this is weird.


And then I fell into a parallel universe of confusion. Should I get one? I'm going to need major convincing to get one, though. Really. Please leave comments stating pros and cons about joining. I must consult all friends and take a survey of opinions. Yeah, I'm that paranoid.

And, I promised pictures, so here are pictures. Please don't laugh at my pathetic drawings. Believe, I know they suck. I have more, but this is all for today.

Oh, Come on. Really Now.

Well, Z was trying to make everyone satisfied by trying to be happy. I was so convinced earlier today that he had finally started moving on. However, he is just acting happy. I am on a dangerously thin line between quite annoyed and extremely angry. Look, I'm trying not to be harsh, but I don't understand how is mind works. I've asked him not to lie about his happiness, like he has before, and I'm getting so tired of this. I'm losing my respect for him.

I'm not too much in the mood for talking today.

To answer the comment, no I have not seen the movie yet. I'll post when I do.

I realize I promised you doodles of my own creation, but this is not the day. I'll keep composure at school, and things start to sink in at home.

On the upside(sorry to steal your ending there, Kellan. I vow that it will not occur on my blog again), I'll be going to the beach tomorrow.

Guess what certain person mentioned in this post in the first paragraph is going, too?

Ugh.

A bit peeved,

Karma Queen


Happy Thursday, I guess.

Chicken

There is a reason why I titled this post chicken. For lunch, I had a crispy chicken snack wrap. Just about twenty minutes ago. It was the very first thing that came to my mind.

Day three of star testing- math part 2 and science part 1 and 2. Oh, how I detest science. Oh, how I loathe the science of of scienceosity. However, the difficulty level was not nearly as bad as I had anticipated. Tomorrow is our very last day of the exams. I must admit that the time spent in that prison-cell-of-a-classroom flew by.

I've been drawing some random, pathetic doodles. I'll post them next time. Prepare for a world of failure. I was not born an artist. I'll leave that up to JG. :)

SHOUT OUT TO ANY FRIENDS WHO HAPPEN TO READ THIS.

Sorry to disappoint, but I have no new scandals to report. As you already know(or should know), testing leaves no time for dilly dally with the gang. I need to vary my cultural vocabulary.

I'd like to be more interactive with my readers, despite the fact that they have dwindled down to about three. But I won't let that stop me! I'll brush it off like that unwanted fuzz on a freshly-laundered sweater.

Here is the magic, merry, mysterious, melancholy, malicious question of the day:

What is one task on your bucket list?
My answer: You know how one person will clap during some sort of performance, and then everyone else seems to fill in the space by clapping to? Before you realize it, the whole room is clapping and cheering and whoop-whooping. I would like to be that one person to start a clap-around. I have many more bucket list ideas(I have an updated list on my phone), but I shall keep to a minimum.

Your job is to answer that question on the comments.

Also, it's national volunteer week so get out there and help your community because you'll feel like a million bucks afterwards.

Have a wonderful Hump Day, my very besties.

And oh yes, today is amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing Robert Pattinson's 23rd birthday. Wish him a superb b-day by reading the post on his fansite here : http://www.hisgoldeneyes.com/

PLHH(peace, love, happiness, harmony),

Soup Of The Day

Good afternoon my flowers(when I went do D.C., the awesome bus driver referred to us as his flowers; it was so cute)!

Before any gets too excited, this post has nothing to do with soup. Really...Yeah... I guess... You know what really bothers me!??!?!? ... [dot dot dot] I hate that. We need to expand the language of punctuation. CR knows what I mean.

AMS, I'm going to throw you through a loop here, so I apologize. I'm going to refer to people by their backwards initials. I'm hoping that it will ease your strain when it comes to trying to figure out who everybody is. Anyways, feel free to check back at the e-mail I sent you yesterday, because I'll still be using those. Let me know in comments whether you would prefer correct order intials(same with you RMSians, you know who you are, anyone who is not AMS).

Star testing(english part 2, math part 1) was very lemon squeezey. Not challenging. But then again, that was only part 1. Part 2 still lurks in the shadows of the test booklet.

KA and DM came to talk with me for a little bit before star testing. DM told me that DZ had been counting the minutes since I cut the cord. Wow. Way to pile on the guilt even more. But really...(UGH. STUPID DOT DOT DOT), what am I supposed to do. Tell me. Right now. This problem doesn't seem to be going away.

I believe everybody knows who everybody else likes, but I wouldn't going talking about it because that will just create and even more awkward situation. BC probably is jealous of GH, but you know what? We can't help it if KA likes GH. I'm happy for her, but KA told me he probably won't do anything.

DM(not SM, like RMS friends might think, this guy doesn't eat with us) still won't do anything about who he likes because he's following DZ's example by keeping his mouth shut. I said M, do not follow that example. Just take a look at what happened. You'll never know until you give it a shot. I think you have a chance. M is really sweet and humble. And then M told me how it would hurt more knowing that she had rejected him. I shut my mouth. Not my place, but it's nice to know he trusts me with that kind of thing.

Did not see any trace of DZ(that I can remember) today. We didn't eat lunch at school (half day dismissal), so we couldn't discuss the usual scandals like we always do. And creepy truth or dare questions. Man, FN. Scary scary.

Alas, I can see I am perpetually boring you. Can't wait to go to beach. I'll keep everyone posted, like I always say.

Until then, my flowers.

Happy Monday

The first day of testing was not bad at all. Just a bit boring and monotonous, but nothing challenging. The day we get to science is the day where the world fails for me. In other words, I seriously hate science. Don't even get me started on that. It is the one school subject where I honestly feel so "not very smart"(i didn't want to say s-t-u-p-i-d).

I'm currently reading The Luxe. Very entertaining. I love books with the whole scandalous pretty girls going to balls and getting married and going to Tiffany's and riding in carraiges, and all that. Definitely a good read.

Star Trek is apparently a really good movie. Any of my friends want to go see that? I'll set up a date. Maybe.

I'm going to the beach this Friday!!!! I'm so excited! The sound of the ocean waves makes all my worries seemingly melt away. And although I'll have to eventually return back to reality, it's always nice, even for a little while.

And now for the drama to keep AMS updated:

Z kinda avoids me like the plague, but still texts saying sorry. My friend M told me he loves a girl but doesn't want to do anything about it because he doesn't want to end up like Z. It is all out of the bag that A likes H, and H is just feeling awkward about it. N likes J of course, but J doesn't return the feelings. I believe M2 and A2 like each other, and watching them is rather cute. But drama keeps the world spinning. I feel like that Gossip Girl book. They always update the latest drama by using initials.

Love Always,

Happy Mother's Day

Mothers do so much for us already. They deserve more than just one day a year dedicated to them. Mothers should get one a month! But then everyone would have to spend all that time coming up with last minute gifts. I always make gifts, because no matter what age a child is, a mothers always melts when they are given something homemade.

Tomorrow is the first day for Start Testing at my school. Not excited about that at all. But then again, who ever is excited for exams?

And just so everyone knows, I don't mind if you ignore me. I enjoy blogging even if no one reads my posts. Not sarcasm, I really do enjoy blogging. Although it would be nice to hear a little peep from someone out there every once in a while.

If anyone ever sees Star Trek, let me know how that is. I've heard good things. But you know good things. They aren't necessarily true. And now I'm rambling. Well, I will speak to myself again tomorrow!

Cheers,

Random Note:

Because I have been dubbed "Roxy" by a couple of friends, I shall go by that on my blog now. So, here we go.

I think middle school is a strange concept. Same with high school, college, and life after that. Now that I think about it, elementary school is kind of up there on the oddball scale, too. Elementary schools is when everything is sweet and innocent and "stupid" is a swear word. But woah man, I was one messed up fifth grader. My friends and I were weird. And then middle school is your first exposure to scary stuff. You know, the family units during science. And then frightening truth or dare questions coming from people you would least expect it to. High school seems more accepting in my opinion. I guess people kind of grow out of their middle school phase. But then again, some just don't. And college, finally off on your own. And after that, major scary. Moving out, family of your own, JOB, BILLS. Well, everyone has to do it at some point, so there's no use complaining.

Poor Violet. Knowing someone likes her and not liking him back. Best wishes, Violet, so you can solve this problem with as little pain as possible. I'm here.

And EMO'S of the nation, you'll never read this, but really. Get back into life. I think it's about time.

And Otis, you'll never read this either, but you have a lot on your hands, and I have no idea what you intend to do about it.



Love Always,
