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),
Ellie, your very own Karma Queen.

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,

(Roxy)

CELEBRATION

CONGRATS TO MY FRIEND JOANNA FOR GETTING HER FIRST CELL PHONE!!!!! YAY! ISN'T THAT ALWAYS FUN!?

And my niece will be getting her first cell phone for her sixth grade graduation! Cute, huh! She doesn't know, but she never reads this. So, hopefully the secret is still safe.




Love Always,

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,

Summer Is Near

Yes, I'm talking about the weather. I am rather enjoying this nice change. The warmth brings out the best in people. Well, not everyone. But some. A handful out there.

(I'm watching Jon and Kate Plus 8)

Please take precautions concerning the swine flu that's swimming out there. Wash your hands, and try to resist the temptation of touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. Ewie. I don't want to get all sickie! It makes me sad. I can't enjoy the spring season if I'm feeling yucky.

Have a fabulous Hump Day!

Ummm.... I seem to have been abandoned. Thanks y'all. But for my own amusement, I'm going to post at random times just to update everybody quickly. Kind of like a twitter, i think. But not. Hmm. what is this twitter thing? sounds funny.... still against myspace. and facebook. but not this. you don't have to comment anymore, if you don't want to. :) im just doing this for my own sake now.

Happy April Fool's Day

How funny.... Not only is it April Fool's Day, but it is also Hump Day!!!! Let's have a celebration today! Let's have a celebration the April Fool's/Hump day way! Finally a day that's totally tricked-filled! Oh! (reference to Wicked song, in case you didn't get that).

Anyways, my friend shared this really cute prank. It's small, subtle, and won't hurt anyone. When no one is around, put a small piece of clear tape on the end of the toilet paper roll in the bathroom. When someone tries to roll the toilet paper out, it will just keep going around and around and around and around until someone figures out. :) Better than that saran wrap one. Now, that is just mean.

Have a happy, humble, lucky, lovely rest of your day!

Comments and Cockroaches

If I ever get comments that make me sad, I just blow them over. Yes, I do. Don't even worry about them. Get over it. Leave in that past. Yes.

Anyways, this is kind of gross(not kinda, but really REALLY disturbing in every way, shape, and form). I received it in a forwarded e-mail:

One day a girl licked the envelopes and postage stamps
instead of using a sponge. That very day the lady
found a cut on her tongue. A week later, she noticed an abnormal swelling of her tongue. She went to the doctor, and they found nothing wrong. Her tongue was not sore or anything. A couple of days later, her tongue started to swell more, and it began to get really sore, so sore, that she could not eat. She went back to the hospital, and demanded something be done. The doctor took an x-ray of her tongue and noticed a lump. He prepared her for minor surgery. When the doctor cut her tongue open, a live cockroach crawled out!!!! There were cockroach eggs on the seal of the envelope. The egg was able to hatch inside of her tongue, because of her saliva. It was warm and moist... This is a true story reported on CNN. Andy Hume wrote: Hey, I used to work in an envelope factory. You wouldn't believe the....things that float around in those gum applicator trays. I haven't licked an envelope for years!"

Gross, right?

DON'T BELIEVE IT. NOT TRUE. I STILL WOULDN'T LICK ENVELOPES JUST BECAUSE...., BUT DON'T ALWAYS BELIEVE WHAT YOU READ. Proved false here: http://www.hoax-slayer.com/roach-eggs.html


I thought that might be something interesting to read, though.

Joe The Plumber

It isn't fun when you have to drive somewhere to use the restroom because all the toilets in your house are being naughty.

We had to have our very own Joe The Plumber come down the mess in our house. The carpet was soaked. The hallway was flooded. The house was in poor condition. And the bad times keep-a-rollin' in. But hey, we're not complaining.

Turns out, roots are yucky. They tend to want to ruin people's home peace by clogging up pipes. They just want water. How selfish. But then again, that's just nature working for you.

Anyways, toilets are happy once again, as are we, despite the mess our house is. We are trying to organize.

And, I am still happy to report that we have two delightful chirpers in their cage. :)

Prayers Please!


Please send your love and joy our way! My poor birdie is SICK! And I'm so worried, because he is showing the same symptoms that my beautiful green parakeet showed before she...


He looks so weak and frail and fragile and painless! I feel like I can see him suffering! On top of all that, he's past his youth. Way past that. I'm so scared for him! He cannot go to the bathroom!


Send some prayers our way PLEASE!

edit: this is the most recent photo i have of him, taken the same day as this post. he looks tired, huh?

Paste... Yum?

You know kids always loved eating paste when they were little?

WHY IS THAT?!!

It just doesn't appeal to me. Why did it to so many others? Is it somehow appetizing? Can someone explain this to me? Better yet, somehow who was a paste eater, tell me what it tastes like. I'm curious.

Anyways, have a good day.

Don't You Hate It....

...when you want to act or look all cool by showing off your amazing skills for singing a song, and then this happens:

a) you get all excited and sing at the wrong part. ouch. awkward silence.

or

b) you sing the wrong lyrics and have to kind of mesh it into the real lyrics and be all like.. yeah, i meant to do that, or just stop quiet in your tracks. there's that awkward silence again.

don't you just hate that?

You Know The Feeling?

Do you know that feeling where you thinks someone is behind you? I think you do. You might not realize it. But when you get goosebumps on the beck of your head and then suddenly there's a draft. You hold your breath. And slowly turn around. And most of the time, nobody's there. Isn't that creepy?

My Little Quirks

You know how everybody has those little random skills that they can do? Not really talents... They aren't particularly difficult. It's just that not everybody can do it. Anyways, here are some of mine:

I am really good at painting my nails. I get detailed. Booyah.

I am capable of peeling(ha, the first time i typed this, i forgot the 'l'. HA! whoops) an orange without breaking off the skin at any point.

I can shake my eyes. My friends, HG and AJ, can also do this. :)

I have neat handwriting. I have a bad day sometimes, but the majority of the time, my writing is nice. nice nice nice.

I can put in my own earrings. I know a lot of people can do this, too, but some find it challenging to find the piercing up in the lobage(this a word?)

I can touch my eye without my contacts in and not feel squeamish.

I can come up with an interpretive dance at any given moment. Yeah. I really can.

The point of this post was so that I could focus more on things I am particularly good at, compared to things I'm not. Many spend too much time dwelling on the sour pickles of life. Shake it up a bit. Have a cucumber. Woah, that's my new official favorite quote.

Hump Day


Yes, today is Hump Day, as I always love to point out at every opportunity I get. Which is every Wednesday. Once a week. Mwah ha ha.


Anyways, I heard something called Fat Tuesday? Yesterday, I heard a girl talking about how her birthday is on Fat Tuesday. I thought it was some kind of inside joke. Then, my friend, H, and I were going through a super secret catalog of super secret items, and we came across a page with Fat Tuesday on it.


WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS SO CALLED FAT TUESDAY?

Sorry, I broke my every other day rule. But, I have a valid reason this time. No, it's not really valid, but it is a reason. Anyways, I am sick. And it feels less-than-wonderful.

Frolicking Friday

TOMORROW IS AB'S BIRTHDAY!!! A.B. IS A VERY CLOSE FRIEND OF MINE, AND I MIGHT NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO POST TOMORROW, OR MAYBE I WILL, SO... I'M POSTING NOW!!! WOOHOOO!!
I have a little story to tell. About a little bird. A little, white bird.
At first he was shy.
I didn't want to pressure him, so I let him take his time.

When he was ready, he came out to play. Check out those feet!
After a while, he got comfortable and started to pose!

He felt so happy that he started talking to a friend nearby who had just come back from paradise


Together, they met two new friends.


All four of them watched the clouds for the rest of the afternoon.



Then, they walked into the sunset.



THE END


Wasn't that a happy story?



Credits:


the white bird is a bird i saw on the road.

the bird of paradise is a random bird of paradise i saw outside the doctor's office.

the cockatiel and parakeet are my two birdies.

the clouds are clouds.

A Non Rant

Unfortunately, i do not have oodles and doodles and noodles of time to rant about nothing like i normally do. But, i am trying to keep a schedule here by posting at least every other day. Even if i post one word, feel free to say hi or comment or rant about your own lives. but then again, that is the point of a blog. oh, well. I'm ranting again.

have a fabulous rest of hump day, or more likely, day after hump day.

I wonder why i all of the sudden stopped and started randomly capitalizing the first word in sentences. Wait, no i didn't. it is just the i's. hmmm. sorry, babbling again.


also, please check out this video against Prop 8. Stop the hate. No on 8. But I don't want to start a fuss.

Time Flies

Today is February 16, 2009. As you probably know...

But, exactly two years ago, on this day, my father had a heart attack and had to be rushed to the hospital. He had a stint put in that day and stayed in the intensive care unit for a few days. of course, I was sad then, but I'm just glad that things are back to normal, two years later. Isn't it weird how time just flies like that? I remember the days when I was itty bitty and my idea of art was drawing stick figures. Hmm.... Kind of odd, don't you think? I know this post probably doesn't make much sense, so you don't have to really comment on my blubber here. Just say hi or aloha or hola or whatever you wish to say. I think I'll go now, for I have bored myself already. Time to go to do something else. Happy Monday. :)

Wowie! I've Been Tagged!

Okay! I have been tagged. So... here we go....


Rules:

1.You must post these rules.

2.You need to list 8 random things or habits that you do or have.

3.Bloggers that get tagged must write on their own blog about their 8 things.

4.At the end of the post you must list 8 people to get tagged.

5.Leave the people comments on their blogs saying you tagged them.


My spectacular 8 random things and habits:


1. I am trying to get better at running, because at the moment, I am less than superb.


2. When I am bored, I'll find myself scratching at my head. Really hard.. It's weird... yeah.


3. I like to tap my fingers on any hard surface to the rhythm of different songs.


4. When I am trying to write a good essay, I try to envision the words dancing around and singing on the page.


5. When I pick out a book at the store, I have to feel several different copies of the same thing and hold them up to my ears to see which one "talks to me".


6. When I eat goldfish, I still make them swim in the air before I eat them.


7. I am only capable of eating Cheerios four at a time(long story)


8. At the grocery store, sometimes I'll pretend I'm a celebrity and all the items on the shelves are the paparazzi. So, I'll start posing and smiling to cans of soup.


That was certainly fun. Now, time to tag eight other chums(do people still use this word?)!!!!!


The following friendliolas are tagged:











Please enjoy this picture of a squirrel I quite a while ago...

Have a fabulous Sunday!

Love Is In The Air....

It only comes once a year. Why not give up one day out of the three hundred and sixty-five(forget that leap year rule, which still utterly confuses me...) to be mushy and gushy and in love with the world?! Why not!? Hug everyone around! Call all of your friends and wish them a Happy Valentine's Day! Don't you like getting phone calls when you aren't expecting them? It doesn't have to be a call a century long!

Just say, "Hello! I am just calling to wish you a very happy Valentine's Day! I hope you have a good one!"

That wasn't so hard, right?

I'm thinking of that song that goes a little something like this:

Love is in the air....(duhn duhn duhn ..... duhn duhn duhn)
Love is in the ayyyyer.

In case you have no idea what I'm talking about, refer below:


Everyone spread a little love around! I know I will! You know what else I'll be doing today?
In about half an hour, I will be scooting my boot down to the dentist's office to get my regular teeth cleaning! Wooo!!!! I'm so excited! Not really, but it certainly is something.

Have a fabulous day everyone!

Remember Me?

I am so sorry everyone! Really, I am! I know that it seems like I have fallen off the face of the earth and glued myself to a barnacle! But this is not the case! I am back! And I will try to post on a regular basis! I hope I have not upset anyone with my frequent absenses! Not that I expect you to visit my humble bloggy abode every waking moment of your life. Though it would be nice. Actually, no it wouldn't. Maybe once a day, or so. Or really, whenever you have the chance. But I digress...It will probably take time to get my readers back, but that is okay. I deserve the struggle.

Anyways, here is a brief recap of my life since you last heard of it. All is well. The year has made a delightful turn for the better. I am no longer in a pit of despair, not that I ever really was. Well, I kind of was. Just for a little bit. I'm all better now. Don't you worry about me. :)

I have not seen any good movies recently. Nor have I read any mind blowing books. Of course, I reread Twilight. Speaking of Twilight, the sequel to the movie, New Moon, is in the makes(is this phrase used correctly?). If you are a rabid fan like myself, I would suggest you bookmark my favorite fansite http://www.hisgoldeneyes.com/ . Daily updates and awesome news on anything Twilight worldwide.

Here are a few of my current favorites to get everybody back up-to-date:

hobbies: reading, writing, singing, dancing, photography(YAY! I WILL BE UPDATING PICTURES OFTEN NOW...I PROMISE... NOT LIKE THE TIME I SAID I WOULD AND THEN I JUST DIDN'T...)

color: blue and green

music: Wicked album; Twilight album; Paramore; Jason Mraz

Well, actually, that was kind of pointless. You could have just gone and peeked at my profile. Oh, wow. At least my fingers are getting a nice exercise here. FINGERS OF STEEL!

"Sunny California"

Not exactly. At this very moment, it is raining rainbows and ponies. I hate strongly dislike it. I am staying cozy with about seven layers including a sleeping bag in bed. Starbucks signature hot chocolate. Staring absent-mindly at the flickering flames of the furnace. Snuggling with pillows and whatnot. This is my life during the winter. In case I haven't reminded you lately, or you just forgot, but I strongly dislike hate the cold weather.

There you have it. My so called "brief" recap.
