ohhhhh maaaaaaan

oh man. i could say that about alot of things this week, but what im talking about today is the day camp sleepover/beach trip/yesterdayness/todayness and how i nearly died a few times. lemme start with the beach~ they needed a lifeguard and i have certification so i got voted to go and help. really, what this entailed was sitting with my friends (Emily and Eric~ no, not that Eric, this is a completely diff Eric) and eating strange combos of pizza, chips and carrots and making fun of Emily and Eric who obviously have crushes on each other. haha! but we took like 5 trips to take everyone to the beach and i went on trip one to supervise. I.Love.Being.In.Charge. while I was in charge, i used my lifeguarding priveleges to win a game of vball and force a kid to give me a swiss cake roll on penalty of eye poking and LOUD whistle blowing (yush, i had a whistle...be jealous.)that was fun. then later began the race for man points with Eric. lemme explain, we were playing volley ball and threatening each other ie " when im done with you, you're gonna look like mashed potatoes!" so on and so forth, so when i hit it and he fell over trying to get it ("it was the SUN!!") i got one man point for being more manly than he is... so from there we've been gaining man points. for example, he won four out of seven carpet ball games against me so he got two man points, and then we both got 50 man points for decorating DJ's name tag with rainbow beads and flowers. haha!! so due to several incidents, im up to 61, Eric has 55 and Emily has a mere 5. omw~ plushie!! so i took lucas with me ( couldnt leave him home to be lonely!) , and we were in the van and i was rummaging through my bag and he fell out... and everyone was SOOO jealous of him, i literally had to pry him from the fingers of several middle schoolers who thought he was the greatest thing since buttered bread!!
xxx
then we had a midnite hike, srsly this was insane. we basically trekked through the woods trying not to run into each other (ha, that didnt work) and get all scratched up in the pitch blackness~ no flashlights allowed. wow, this was NUTS but the sky was gorgeous and we had alot of fun. later we roasted marshmallows and finally at one o clock we all went to our tents. IT WAS SO COLD!!!!! like really, five of us girls were huddled together under several unzipped sleeping bags and we were all still freezing. yeah, no joke my mum told me it was the coldest night on record in a verrrry long time with a temp or 48. ouch. and i couldnt sleep. at all. i wonder why???
xxx
en la manana, after me and em convinced kelly to let us go up to the house and take a shower, we ate pancakes cooked over a fire and chilled for awhile before daycamp began. day camp itself was alrite, nothing really new. it was fun, but im totally out of energy...
xxx
so that brings us to now. apparently court and plushie stopped by earlier, sorry guys apparently i was asleep for all this. sorry, im just deathly tired lately. my uttmost apologies for the rest of this week cuz im sure i wont be the most perky cheerful person you've ever met... either way, its 8 ish and im still tired so im going to go back to beeeeed!
sweet dreams.

a good monday

today has been a good monday. a really good monday. a really really really good monday. ahem, anyways, rite-o. among other things, today was the first day of day camp so that was fun. altho getting up after only what seemed like a few minutes (it was more than a few minutes, but not by much) at 6:15 ish wasnt so fun... but you know, i had the most lovely dream (kinda) prior to waking at 6:15 so it was all good and i managed to drag myself out of bed and get dressed/shower/breakfast all that good stuff without falling asleep once, altho it was close a few times, especially after i was all ready and went back to my room to grab a notebook and my Mp3 player and there was my bed, just CALLING, begging for me to come back to sleeeep... and then my mum honked the horn and it was time to go. *sigh. but i plan on a long nap sometime in the near future~!!
xxx
man, i know i should blog about day camp~ i really should, but im soo tired and it was such a long day that ill just tell alittle about it. first, the music is pretty good, altho my penguins arent there so its not the same ( kinda code name for Above the Influence, a band that me and one of my friends love and have created several inside jokes about, hence the penuins.). secondly, our kids were fairly well behaved, all ten of the little buggers, and they have good arms~ we played this game where you thow wet sponges at each other... they SOAKED me!! it was definitely an adventure! thirdly, i got to be in a skit acting as a japanese tourist. this was alot of fun, i got this big camera and my job was to speak jibberish and take pictures of everything. haha~ that was goofy. and this is the extent of what im blogging today because if i keep going, im sure ill end up saying something that doesnt belong here. so
tata!

karate kid, pizza, and an epic swimsuit...

heeey! so this makes two posts in one day~ yay me.i dunno how many posts ill get in next week so i figured id do two today just in case. next week is the Day Camp of Doom~ which means we leave the house at 7:30 and dont get back till 4:30. ahhh!!! and see i have this problem when it comes to kids, im a BIG softie so like last year i ended up giving piggy back rides and becoming like a human climbing tree to all 20 kids in our group. this lead to a plethera of bruises, aching shoulders and otherwise unpleasant side effects. however, overall it was a pretty fun week despite all that, i know its hard to believe, but its strangely fun. so i am, but am not excited.
xxx
so, we went into GL today and went to the library where we were only allowed to check out 2 books ( HEY!!) but really its fair cuz we have about a zillion from portland and sunfield already!! but after that, we went to Karate Kid which was rly good, the ending was pretty great too but i cant say that cuz i dunno if youve all seen it and i dont feel like being bashed. I love Jackie Chan tho, he is srsly the bomb. and they used one of my fave songs, say by john mayer, in it so i was like singing along and my mums giving me funny looks.. but they cut off half the second verse!! so i was like HEY! thats a good part~! and there was this really cute romantic thing going on in the background... awww!!! i love movies like that, it was adorable.
xxx
oh yes, pizza. after the movie we headed over to gramma and grampa js for pizza, and i ended up with the most epic swimsuit ever! okay, i normally wouldnt post about swimsuits cuz its just weird, but this one is way cool. if i saw it on a rack somewhere, i would prolly be like okay thats weird, because it is this crazy neon purple with silver stars on it. and its like one of those kinda old fashioned looking one pieces.. i can really splain well but i dont want to post pics cuz thats just awkward. either way, its epic. and now ill change the subject.
xxx
hmm what should i talk about now? erm how about the fact that my wifi STILL ISNT WORKING!!! crazy~ errrrr. anyways, oh what do i have going on thats even vaguely interesting?? uhhhhh ooh we made raspberry pie today with raspberries from our yard~ and i remembered why i LOATHE cooking, or atleast the cleaning up... especially shortnening, oh gag. its gets EVERYWHERE!!! but it turned out alrite, a little too sweet but when you're cooking with three people under the age of 13 you take what you can get!
peace out homies

dear lucas, i love you

song of the day:if i am~ i love this song because it doesnt make a whole lot of sense, but thats why it makes sense really. you know? if you dont, go down to my playlist and lisssten, its cool. so i just realized i had a really whacked version.. buts its all good, i fixed it.
xxx

who ya gonna call? GHOST BUSTERS! sorry. this burst of random has been brought to your attention for but not limited to the following reasons : I am very tired (this is a long story that im not telling for those of you that dont know), the sibs were singing it earlier, and i just felt the need to be random. yupp. sorry, thats me for you.
xxx
so this weekend has been alrite so far, saturday was pretty bleh but sunday... wait, i dunno if it really counts as sunday. it technically was, but i dont necessarily consider it to be... uh. right. anyways, today has been good. there we go. well i was awake most of the night, but i did get a bit of sleep i think from like six to eightish which is good i guess, but nevertheless i dragged myself out of bed at eight for no apparent reason now that i think of it, and came upstairs to lay around. i was lazy for quite some time but then mum made me clean my room ( really, she makes me clean it like every day but i have this clothes problem~ i HATE putting them away so i generally have this big pile in front of my dresser and i just grab what i want, its very convenient. but mum doesnt think so. so she made me FOLD it, and put it all away... agh. whatever tho. so my wifi isnt working AGAIN whats up with that? grrrr... so i have to do all this upstairs which really irks me to an extreme. but thats alrite I WILL SURVIVE (sung loud and operatically and prolly very very off key) neways. so we're going "as a family" (oh help) to see karate kid today, yaaaay, and make a stop at the grand ledge library (lemme point out here that plushie, you are REALLY missing out!!! it should be illegal not to have a library card~ and you couldnt even come up with good reasons you nutcase!!) ahem back to my afternoon. right, so karate kid then i think we're going out to eat so this should be a true adventure...
xxx
oh, i should explain my title. lucas is my new soft cuddly amigo, all thanks going to epic plushie here, i really should post a pic of lucas soon, remind me oh wise bloggers or you KNOW ill forget! okay, well i should say my adeius as we are leaving soon.

xxx
got up late, again. bad kara. so i couldnt go running. so instead i got up and sat around on facebook for awhile, then took a shower, then GUESS WHAT? the internet stopped working.. hmm you know taht is SOOO surprising!!!! yup, it really is. so after that fiasco i sat around some more, got out of my jammies, put on some make up, dried my hair... waited until the internet was back on. then i figured out my songs for tonite at church and danced along with the motion vids to learn that and the stuff i was sposed to say... then i... erm i dunno what i did, oh yeah my friend micayla called and told me all about camp at ao-wa-kiya and made me VERY jealous. then uhhhh oh yeah, church! we packed up and left with a detour at the Day Camp of Doom where i will be serving time eight hours a day next week :/ ugh. so we set up a tent for our kid group, then to church. where i had to sing. agh. then haha i watched some of the sermon and learned taht back in bible times instead of the heart, the intestines were the major thing so youd tell someone i love you with all my intestines HAHA!crap, i have more to write but its bed time!!

what will it take to make you understand that i'm not lying...

well we had the worlds most epic light and sound show last night, starring mother nautre herself! it was soo beautiful.... i was sleeping quite soundly actually, when all the sudden around 2 i sat straight up in bed and heard " BOOOOM!" then of course i was wide awake. so i got out of bed and sat on my window seat thing for awhile,with the window open a bit just listening and watching ( i learned my lesson, no sitting in the rain for me despite crazy temptation) until i was sleepy again, then i curled up under my covers and went to sleep to the lovely sounds of thunder and rain. this morning, my alarm went off and once again i put it off and went back to my bed and fell asleep... until 8. maaan i need to find some motivation fast or else! but when i woke up at 8 i got up and rode around town taking pics of all the trees/branches down and marveling at how crazy it was! actually, at that time it looked like it might pour any moment again! but it cleared up within the next few hours and now its reaaaly pretty out... so we had dance today ( oh my gosh, i cant ever remember sweating so much... EVER), then my mom had to go to the neurosurgeouns office to review her MRI and talk about surgery (pinched nerves, bulging disks... shes a mess!!) then we went to a lake in ionia and swam for a couple hours and i made a sand scultpure of an octopus!! i shall have to post pics of him, he's rully cute!! :) oh my gosh! theres a rainbow on my leg... this is weird! oooh my hanging windown light reflectly butterfly thing is making rainbows!! yaaaaay. sorry. ahem, back to previously scheduled programming. so, that is my today. and now it is time for dinner. i think ill go ride my bike later, i think ill start riding everynite, and running every morning.... sweet.
wishing you thunderstorms and pink lemonade

everybody is laying down the law, theyre all amazingly opinionated

song of the day: love in your arms by eleventy seven ~ this is a really crazy song, its rly fun to rock out to too!
xxx
hiii~! well i didnt post yesterday for several reasons, the two most important being i was really busy with fathers day and all and then also i felt like blah. im feeling a bit better today, i can actually hear what ppl are saying (yesterday and the day b4 my ears were so throbbing and stuffed up i couldnt get a word....) and i can swallow w/o immense pain. PS thank you plushie, the lemon juice really did help... neways. so what did we do yesterday? we went to my grammys house and stuffed ourselves full of food then swam (except me, who sat on the side trying to be optomistic about the situation), then sat around and ate desert, then came home. late. then went to bed. or everyone else did. i was up almost all nite. again. this has been rather common lately, not just cuz ive been feeling icky either, ive just had nites where i cant for the life of me get to sleep! not that thats always a bad thing, but when morning shows up and im sposed to be up for the day, it doesnt go so well. this is why i have not been running the past few mornings, well that and sickness. blah. BUT i have decided that i have been being bad lately w/o knowing it! by going to the Hill every morning, i am slowly losing appreciation for how beautiful it is! so i have decided to find some different places around town to go to so im not taking the same route everyday and downplaying the magic. any ideas? so far all ive got are the two parks (school and park park) but i dunno what else.
xxx
also, i have decided on a new nickname. i am going with zooom (it has to have 3 os too, for dramatic effect) . i almost went with juicebox, but ive been called that b4 by other ppl and i rly wanted something new so for now im zoom, for now means until i get bored of it, this happens quite frequently. sometimes i SWEAR i have ADD and this is not always a good thing! wait, plushie dont you have ADD? didnt you say that? and that you never take your meds? or was this all just a strange dream... which is also possible. oooh speaking of which. i had a weird dream 2 nites ago! so all these ppl i knew climbed through my window while i was in bed, wrote one word on my ceiling, then left. the last ppl who came were court and plushie, and they stayed for a minute or two, then left. but when i looked at my ceiling, all that was there was a spider. if i was deeply into these things, i would prolly find some hidden meaning in this bizarreness, but since im not ill stick with "dont eat apples and cheese right b4 bed!"
xxx
ohhh today has been prty dull. ive just been sitting around, helping mum plant flowers, practicing dance, reading, cleaning room (again), being blobby. thats me, blob extraordinaire!! *sigh. la la la la la. now im bored. NO RESIST URGE TO BE BORED! i need a bike ride... i think ill eat some dinner, try to make myself appear presentable and go for awhile... that tends to cure boredness.
peace out homeblogdogs!
~zooom

ohhh i feel like crap.

ugh. i now regret sitting outside in the rain for hours last nite. i knew it wasnt good for me, i knew it, but i couldnt resist! and its not like it was raining hard, it wasnt even raining at all as it got later in the night, just a bit breezy. but cold and damp nonetheless. so i had a teensy sore throat b4 that, like oh that feels really dry lemme get some more water, sore... and this morning and all day, it has been getting worse. like i can talk fine, but it hurts. as does swallowing. and clearing my throat. all basic things i usually take forgranted. and guess what, we only have naaaasty cough drops that are "honey lemon" yeah rite, try crap and mint. eew. so if anyone has yummy cough drops and wants to send them via computer, please do. maaaaaaaaaan it hurrrrts!!okay im gonna ignore that for a moment and discuss the storm so i dont sound more whiny than i already have. THE STORM: so we were at leahs game and everyone was like omgosh, theres a triple storm threat for barry county and blah blah blah but they kept playing until around 8 when all the sudden the wind picked up and gray clouds appeared over the field and the ump yelled" thats a game, get out, RUN!" and panic ensued. and leahs friend started sobbing because shes "deathly afraid of tornadoes!!!!!" so we all got home to find~surprise! no power!!! this irked me greatly, esp when i booted up my comp to go online and realized that no power means no modem which means no wireless. crap. so we walked around by candlelight, esp ticked cuz one street over, and courtneys ( we drove by and i saw your light on) house all had power! like it was just our street~ugh. so i ended up with leah in my room hogging my bed so i said fine, have it! and went to sit in my window. well sitting in the window turned into sitting outside which turned to " i wonder if i could run somewhere and not get caught...." no, i didnt go anywhere, but never have i felt so strongly that i just wanted to escape already! and leave, and run somewhere, anywhere, just to prove that i can, just to feel the rain.. but i was too chicken. i did get up, i took about 3 steps then sat back down cuz reality check kicked in " where are you going? you'll catch your death of cold! someone will know your gone, you dont have a watch and will lose track of time! youll be kidnapped!" otherwise, i would be miles away by now. but back to the storm, it was so beautiful... im a storm freak, so i could have thunderstorms half the time and be thrilled not even caring that i only get sun everyother day! there was one boom in particular that none of us were expecting, this was around 10 mebbe and it was soo loud that it literally shook my window and for a moment, i thought someone had pounded it with a sledge hammer !!! sooo gorgeus. i would love one again tonite!! minus pwr outage bcuz it is very hard to read a book and rite in your journal by flashlite!!
xxx
so, that brings me to today. another long boring day stuck here. i got up to run, that was prolly the highlight of my day~ it was sooo pretty. then i had camp staff training for a local day camp, then watched my sister lose a game in lake-o, then came home and went blah until we had to leave for church which was just as blaaaah since i had to help with singing. altho afterwords i went up to the bridge (second level, over looks everything) to catch the end of the sermon and had the whole thing to myself (via live video feed) so i got to doodle all over my bulletin and styrafoam tea cup and take pictures of whatever w/o getting yelled at or weird looks. yaaay!
xxx
ahhhhhhhhh!!!! i wasnt going to talk about it again but my throat hurts!! if anyone has a magic cure please tell me! i was going to do tea and honey but we dont have any honey and i only have one bag of tea left so i plan to save it until im absolutely dieing!!! until then, here i sit. too distracted to blog about more excited things. sorry guys!! ill try to be more intersting tommorow, i promise.

hey! okay so i posted three stinkin times yesterday~ how scary is that? uh oh, if im not careful im going to end up staying inside all day on blogger posting whenever my cat walks by or i eat a banana. oh well, maybe it tis my fate... now i just sound nuts. blame it on lack of sleep. i could not for the life of me get to sleep last nite, it was ridiculous... i just couldnt sleep, it wasnt happening, like i felt dead tired but couldnt actually fall asleep! i tried everything, writing, reading, dancing around to tire myself out, laying quietly, counting sheep... i even tried reverse psychology, telling myself " YOU ARE SOOOO AWAKE RIGHT NOW!" that didnt help, it made it worse :/... its been a really looong day, i feel so bleh. ugh.

i found a mutation

today a miliwig crawled across my floor. or maybe it was a centiwig, or an earpede, i dunno. either way, it was NOT normal. see, the bug looked like an earwig only with about one MILLION legs! eew! that reminds me, at school once we found an ant with 8 legs, weeeeird. we named him spidey-ant and i kept him safe so the boys couldnt squish him (they squish any bugs they see, surprise surprise...) until he could go oustside. now let me just get this out there, i like bugs and snakes and frogs and stuff like that, im not grly grl, but when there zooming towards you at unnatural speed with pincers in the front and a zillion legs, its normal to go "eeeeew." no i didnt kill him, i simply scooped him into an empty water glass and deposited him outside my window. i mean i wonder how creepy i looked to him, wouldnt that be interesting? to see things like buggggs see them? i bet we look like freaks, i mean we are freaks, but i bet we really look it. c'mon, only two eyes, two legs, two arms, no pincers... whats up with that? if bugs decided to, they could take over the world easily. but what do we do? we spray them with pesticide, we squish them beneath merciless shoes with a splat.... when really, we should be gently returning them to their environment so we can all go back to our normal lives. so next time you go to kill a bug, picture yourself as them... or if that doesn work, imagine that they're overruning your body and picking your bones clean~ ooooh like on indiana jones, the new one where the ants get that russian dude. sweeeeeeeeeeet.

xxx

so i avoided disaster today while watering courts moms plants and cleaning cat litter which was nice, no dumping watering cans of water on myself or being nearly mauled by the vicious cat. the cat never showed up, i called and called and looked in all the places Chris said he might be, but still didnt see him. prolly a good thing, we dont get along O.o

xxx

bum bah dum dum dum... right. anyways, uh....... well celebrate~ 2morro is my last day babysitting the horrid miss jessica (ugh) who bosses me around and leaves messes everywhere and refuses to eat her breakfast so im glad! but also, its my last day really babysitting this week cuz dad is home fridays, yay. i would sleep in, but i neeed to run or my dance teacher might kill me.... again. she does it quite often, she used to be a drill sergeant in the army and you can tell. shes really nice, just no nonsense, and that i can deal with. plus i want to run, altho i wish i could get up earlier... its not the same if ppl are up D:

mmkay, well im out of things to talk about and dont want to bore you all to death with anything else i can think of so...

peace out homies, stay awesome

song of the day: pitter pat by erin mccauley


gooood morning! doesnt that pic look like something off a horror movie? like in it is human entrails suspended in a highly glowly but deadly substance, and the face behind it is mangled and bloody~ and at night ppl wake up to see a light glow in their room, then it pulses brighter and brighter until he appears in the room, laughs maniacally, killls them and adds their entrails to the collection. man, i am morrrrrbid.
xxx
i had all the best intentions this morning to go running, i really did. but well the alarm rang and i thought hmm ill give it a couple more minutes, then that turned into "zzzzzzzzzzzzz" and being woke back up at 7:20 by my mum saying she was leaving for work. *sigh. oh, and my parents really just delite in screwing up my life. so i really like to run ERRRLY, thats the point of getting up so no one is around and you dont have to worry about ppl watching *shudder* thats why i haate running during the day. anyways, i guess there've been alot of robberies all around town lately, and some of them have happened in the early morningness (like ppl breaking into houses while ppl were in their beds sleeping and taking purses, laptops, you name it) so now i cant run till 7 when ppl are up and around~agggggggggh. thats no fun, first the sun is waay up alread, second ppl are leaving for work therefor out and about, thirdly ever old couple ever is out taking their morning stroll. wheres the magic in that? sucked out by parents. they do that alot. :/
xxx
i wish i didnt have to babysit my little neighbor today. its a finding nemo day i think, sitting on the couch under a million blankets watching finding nemo and just enjoying the gloom of the day. oh, if only. but no, today will consist of babysitting neighbor grrrl till 20 after noon, then babysitting the sibs till 3. my mom owes me a ridiculous amount of money rite now, i mean really i have babysat for her almost everyday for the last 3 WEEKS!!!!! *sigh. whatever.
let it rain!
~me

in which i wish for a piece of cake

im feeling like eating a piece of cake right now. im not sure why, its an incredibly random urge but... i dunno, german chocolate or lemon~mmmm... or maybe even carrot cake with creme cheese frosting and a bowl of vanilla bean ice cream... ooh, make it sherbert, i luv sherbert, i swear its better than any kind of ice cream. especially if its raspberry, oh man... or orange, or liiiime, or coconut/pineapple or.... any kind! im a sherbert nut. but i guess i could settle for some apples and cheese today, thats rully rully good, a crunchy tart apple slice and a piece of colby jack cheese~yumm. it sounds weird, but its actually delicious. you should try it, oh blogger people! anyways, i dont want to waste a whole post on food, so we'll move on.
xxx
well today was okay, up running errrly in the gloom, then babysitting for the worlds bossiest 5 year old, Jessica. she's sooo bossy! she really terrorized my house and yard, like literally leaving a wake of polly pockets, babydolls and cheerios in her wake. shes adorable, dont get me wrong, but its the cute ones you gotta watch for, shes ridiculously mischievous!
xxx
and yesterday, i pelted plushie with marshmellows and won an epic marshmellow war. even HE admits it. haha~ i feel accomplished! prolly the most interesting thing thats happened in the last two days, man i need to get out more!!!
xxx
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what to post about????? what is there left to tell???? i could spill my every thought and most secret secrets, but thats just a little too personal for an internet audience, or any audience in general. so that leaves me with... not much! well, i made some more birds for my room 14 of them actually~ for those of you who dont know, i have piano wire hanging above my bed and little paper birds hanging from it XD

okay, im bored
laytah
~me

its harder than it sounds, i swear!

so. i barely escaped with my life earlier... all thanks to a plastic watering can, a plant/monkey beast and a cat named Kitty Bud. so i rode my bike over with no problems from the highway cars or ninjas that im sure were lurking all around, but once i got there the fun began. first of all, i had to water the plants... so i took a pre-filled watering can and began to water. this was hard bcuz the cans spout thing was huge! so i basically soaked the deck and the flowers... then there was this hangy monkey that i had to water, and im not all that tall so i couldnt reach it from just standing... so i pulled over a deck chair, stood on it and tried to water this thing. now really, i had no idea if i was sposed to soak it or what? yeah, about that. i still was having a hard time reaching it, so i tippytoed up and tried to pour until~ this is embarrassing~ the whole can flipped sideways and completely drenched me. it was bad. so there i was, soaking wet and like "omw, that did NOT just happen, did it?" so i unlocked the house, went in and watered those few plants, then... the call of their tuned piano about killed me. i might have played a song or two. then i saw the cat. dum dum dum dum... he looked at me. i looked at him. i walked up and let him sniff my hand before gently petting his head~ or trying anyways, i didnt get to far bcuz thats when he HISSED really loud, several times in a row. obviously i backed off a bit and was like "alrite, its your house, im chill with that" but he wasnt. he followed me as i went upstairs to water those plants, then to clean his litter, finally i just stood really really still and pretended i wasnt looking and he came up, sniffed my leg, then walked away with a swish of his tail. reow to you to! i let him know that i was coming back wednesday to do the same thing, hoping hed loosen up a bit, but he was still eying me with great contempt when i slid out the door!

bored as heck. man i should go find something to do!!!!!!!!!!! but we're out of bananas again :(

~me

waffle irons for all!

umm hullo all! so. this afternoon has been interesting! my dear father came home from work only 15 minutes after the kids were home (eternal thanks!!) and i retreated to my room to listend to a book on CD (keeping the moon, sarah dessen) and attempted to clean it and find somethings on my laptop while i was in a cleaning mode. after all that, we went for a short ride in the nice malibu my dad got on lease from GM tonite, i mean i never really was into the whole buy expensive cars thing, but ill tell you, i began to understand when we drove around town with some rap song blaring, bass turned up to shake the car and the DVD screens on the back of my head rest and dad's on their own sound circuit... it was nice. he wanted to get the camero, AHHH!!!, but someone else got it first :/ oh maaan. oh well. so we had to take ab to the orthodontist, and then i went to get my hair cut ~ yaaay finally, nothing major just bangs a bit and layerd and a little length gone, not much. and then we dropped off my mum's friends waffle iron at their house and came home. so here i am, just chillin. in a couple minutes im gonna go take care of courts plants and kitty litter, etc. oh, life is so weird sometimes... i.... i dunno. its an adventure!

off in search of something interesting to do!!

~me

fall and divide

good morning my lovely bloggy friends!! this is going to be a looooong day, i can tell. i almost didnt drag my lazy butt out of bed this morning, i was soooo close; this prolly has something to do with the fact that i kept waking up throughout the night, sometimes randomly, but the last few times because i thought there were giant spiders on my ceiling and in my bed. im not sure where the spider hallucination came from, but this happened several times; i would leap out of bed like i was being launched into space and flip on my lights, sure i had seen something, which is really actually pretty impossible since its like pitch black in my room, and of course there was nothing there. so id go back to bed. then, 45 minutes later, itd happen again! so basically, i am ridiculously tired today and thats not a good thing for a few reasons. firstly, i have to babysit for my little neighbor this morning from 8:20-noon then the sibs come home and i trade the neighbor for them until my dad gets home around noon thirty ish. so i guess its not that bad, i just wont be able to lay around and be lazy today :/ i actually have to get out of my pjs b4 noon... *sigh.

xxx

so, about my weekend! it was alrite, saturday we left around nineish to go to school fundraiser, its like a recital for dance, and we had our practice at 11, but didnt have to be back to dance until 6:30, whatsupp with that? so we went to the glorious IKEA if youve never been there you are missing out, they sell everything you could ever want to furnish your home , including bamboo!!! oh and they have the besssst frozen yogurt EVER, it was really great. performing was alrite, i didnt get to see any of the rully good numbers tho cuz i was backstage getting ready. i guess the one to "evacuate the dance floor" was reaaaaally good, and they also did "beat it" and "thriller" which i also missed out on :/ it was fun tho, there were about six of us out there tearing up the stage~ i loved it! yesterday we actually went to church cuz they had this tent party and i got to eat a snow cone and a hotdog and play in a bounce house and climb a rock wall! it was fun, i felt like a kid again :)

time to go get out of my jammies!!

peace homebloggers

~me

pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

hello again. well the rain has gone D: but it was nice while it lasted... in the meantime we went to the library and i got some books to read. i admit, im a book geek... give me a good book, a glass of cold pink lemonade, and a hammock and im in heaven. see, reading goes way back *arrogantly adjusts invisble tie* ahem, me and court were reading champs for what 3 years running or more? and we OWNED the competition, and then there were sleepovers which got progressively less fun as they went on, from us having the run of the place, to us being told where we were sleeping, when to go to bed, and being yelled at by grouchy mothers with their little kids. now they dont have it anymore :/ and just do like this laaaame "hotdog roast" yeah whatever. how sad *sniff sniff*. anyways.

xxx

so read the pic uploaded, i found this surfing the net the other day and thought it was rly cool~ and definitely puts a new perspective on life...

xxx

this should tell you how uneventful it has been lately, im out of things to write :/. really, these posts are getting awkward!! umm well. i'm not babysitting today which is weird, usually i run, take a shower, get dressed for the day/makeup if im feeling ambitious, watch saved by the bell for an hour and a half (haha, i feel so retro...) then the kiddies come stumbling out to watch peep and the big wide world (a very cute cartoon about a narcistic duck named quack, a cynical red birdnamed chirp, and a vaguely clueless chick named peep)... and then we do whatever, school work left by mum, cleaning, weeding the garden, eating, reading... whatever. but today, i went running, showered, then sat. i had no idea what to do so... i started reading cage of stars (again) and ended up falling asleep for 2 hours! why am i telling you all this? am i that desperate? that i tell you what i do every morning? ahhhhhhhhhhh! oh man, i need some ideas of things to write about ppl or my the end of the week its going to be like this

Dear Bloggers,

Today I woke up. Today I went running. Today I took a shower. Today I babysat. Today i ate breakfast. Today I am bored.

Goodbye.

then we'll all go crazy!!!!!

song of the day: hit the lights by all time low

xxx

so i dragged myself out of bed this morning to run and im glad i did, it was reaaally gorgeous.... early morning and late nite are officially my fave times of day~ ever.

xxx

wull today has been alrite so far, you know, its life :/. went to grammas with the sibs and we got to swim in her pool which was nice, but COLD so i mostly just floated around and played monkey in the middle (very difficult when youre on a floaty)... man, i dunno what to write about now, i havent done much else today... uh... hmm well i have recital this saturday, that should be fun~ i really do love performing, much more than feising, feising is ridiculously stressful. like the actual dancing i like, but not prep etc. performance is just fun, loud music ppl watching and cheering and, yeah, its great.

xxx

so. now what? hmm this is awkward. im blank. uh well the weather has been lovely today? laaaaaaame. i know, okay okay, go here for "geek stuff" furniture i mean, its cool, trust me~ clicky and go, then comment and tell me what you think.

killer fireflies

song of the day: a guide to marine life by falling up (sorry, the song of the day and the avvie are completely dif, i just saw it on iconaotor as aotd and its from my fave song, be my escape by reliant k so i couldnt resist. not that anyone would have noticed otherwise.... man, i ramble :/)

xxx

so. about the title~ killer fireflies. i saw my first three fireflies last nite around midnite, but i thought they were something else. lemme start at the beginning. so it was midnite and i had just finished reading "pretties" so i was kinda on edge, like my mind still processing everything. wull b4 i go to bed, i like to sit on my window sill and open my window and just think, you know?technically i could leave at anytime, no screen! neways its nice. so as i pulled back my heavy curtains, i noticed that the shadows were really funny on my window well and froze when i saw a flash of light in my backyard. now b4 you think im completely paranoid, there have been alot of robberies and vandalism lately, even my neighbor got robbed, so my first thought was oh man, someones in the yard with a flashlight. then the light kept blinking, on and off and i figured someone was turning it on, walking a few steps to see ahead, then turning it off. so i pulled my curtains almost all the way together and peeked through the crack at the light... suddenly, one appeared to the right of my window as well and i thought "ohmigosh they're closing in!!" and dropped the the floor, literally shaking (man i feel dumb telling this!!) with fear because i thought that any second my window was going to be smashed in. no joke! so i straightened up a little and looked for light through my curtains and almost screamed when one of the orbs came down into my window well, i thought i was going to die! and since id just read pretties my mind was spinning with possibilities of what it could be, and now it looked like someone had stuck some kind of pulsating sensor in my window well! yeah, about that. when i finally got the courage to look through the curtains again, i carefully noted the little light.... and felt completely like an idiot when i saw it was a bug. A FIREFLY! thats it! so i just sighed with relief, laughed at myself, and stumbled to bed where i promptly fell asleep. but on a happy note, fireflies mean SUMMER!!!

xxx

my grandpa came up with a most excellent idea, but i might have to do some research for this one, not sure of local laws. he said i should start a shoe tree~ how cool is that? so i need your help plushie and court to help me find a good spot and start this!! i am excited.... i plan on doing all sorts of crazy things this summer. and, i have resolved to not let myself be bored. if i am bored, i must turn to my list of things to do when almost bored, for example

1. master the art of listening to a book on tape and reading a book AND comprehending both (this is hard! ive been trying lately)

2. teach myself to roll my tongue- they say its hereditary, but i think i can learn, im pretty awesome ;)

3. go around town taking pictures of things i pass everyday and have never really seen, even tho i look at them everyday, ie a mailbox or a streetsign

4. make things out of ductape, like a wallet or a purse, or a dress!

5. madlibbsss!

those are just a few, if you have any good ideas, comment them or post cuz i want to get a long list going... of fun things, like the banana thing.... yay.

xxx

so i didnt get up this morning!! usually i get up and run to the hill and back ( not really allowed to spend much time out on a run cuz last time i went for a while i got in trouble... long story) but this morning my alarm went off at 6:15, as always, and i thought hey i think ill wait today and leave around 6:30. yeah, ill just sleep some more. so when i woke up at 7 and mum was leaving for the day, i knew it wasnt going to happen! oh well.

xxx

so i recently watched Angels and Demons with Tom Hanks, it was rully good! violent, but good. if you've never seen it i highly recommend it~! it was like a catholic history national treasure type movie, and there was this killer twist at the end that made the movie, wow.

xxx

alrite, well i have more banana pics to post but not sure when ill get around to putting them up... my mum finally bought more bananas, which made me very happy, and shes buying me a 61 piece chalk bucket next time she goes to meijer/walmart! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!! man, im really feeling like going skiing today... random feeling, but i want to skiiiiii, i love skiing. its kinda like flying.... or so id imagine.

xxx.peace out my homies. hang in there.xxx

schadenfreude

song of the day: vanilla twilight by owl city

hullo folks, welcome to yet another episode of " Everything You Never Wanted to Know", I'm you're host, SHAE! yeah, not enough energy to keep that one up, plus my announcer voice only holds up for so long... so about the title! schadenfreude. this word was in a book i recently read (this disreputable history of frankie landau-banks) and i loved how it looked, and the meaning which is deriving pleasure from someone elses misfortune~ its pronounced shodden-freud-ah and i think i shall strive to use it in daily conversation! well these posts may be coming more sparesly (? grammar) cuz our wireless is out so anytime i want to post, it has to be from here, the main computer. agh. i hate posting in the living room, i feel... vulnerable! like now, theres like 5 other ppl in here, and theirs my dad, reading over my shoulder. grrrrrrr. *sigh. you know what, i cant do this rite now, ill post 2morro while babysitting and spill the whole affair. k? k.
hugggggggggggs

so today, as i walked through the kitchen, i saw a cluster bananas sitting on the counter and my mind went a million places at once! so... needless to say, i decided to figure out what you can do with a banana. if you have any other ideas, please post them as a comment, or take pics and post them on your blog! see, i refuse to be bored ( see plushie, it is possible~ find a banana!) and i was borderline bored so i figured oh what the heck, lets have some fun! but i digress... i give you, BANANAS!!

why does our brokeneness keep whispering, its telling us we're not anything

song of the day: (keep forgetting to do this...) stand up by remedy drive

i luv this pic... i took it about a year ago and did a bit of editing to make it darker... it reminds me of rainy days and happy times

wulll im proud of myself as ive started blogging more now that i have a bit more time... but that doesnt mean i have much excitement to blog about... at present, my morning has consisted of being drug out of bed to babysit (again...), eating an egg with salt-pepper-ketchup (yumm), checking my facebook (nothing fun to report), and rite now listening to my 2 youngest sibs yelling at each other. i should prolly tell them to cut it out or pay a little more attention, but... im sick of trying to make them behave, so today they can kill each other for all i care :/...

yg went pretty well, we got to go outside and find an attribute of God, me and my awesome group ( court and plushie) found air bcuz "God is in the air" soo profound. actually, plushie had to almost kill a kid to get a little purple beach ball which we used to hold the air... rly, he pulled a knife and lighter and everything to get this thing! in the end, we rocked. everyone was blown away. afterwords we went outside to the playground where courtney was NOT a man (me and plushie were big men... well in theory anyways kind of... okay, bigger men than courtney) then somehow we ended up in a war of castles (courtney against me and plushie) but unbeknowst (spelling?) to courtney, i really did plant a bomb in her castle, it was in the form of a granola bar wrapper~ but she never seemed to get it. plushie and i however had a wish which might have saved the day, but plushie didnt quite get it blown out all at once. oh well, we still won. supposedly courtneys gonna take over the world... yeah right. i mean of course she is!

feeling kind of blue today, why is a long story. but... its life~ what can you do???

thanks for sticking with me

growing up is highly overrated

so today i am babysitting and its raining... and the one perfect thing to do when it rains, is to draw with chalk in the garage!! since i have converted my siblings to being zim lovers, we chose zim characters... obviously. hee hee, we had so much fun. then we ate corndogs for lunch followed by rainy day s'mores (graham crackers with chocolate frosting and mostly melted marshmallows!!) yummm. then we turned on pandora (yaaaaaaaay) and danced like maniacs all around the living room. oh, iss a good life ;).... and i think its almost done raining so then we can go and sliiiiiiiide in the grass! man, i;ve given up on growing up. i heard this quote the other day and thought it was great... If growing up means it would be beneath my dignity to climb a tree, I'll never grow up! (from peter pan) and i agree, growing up is highly overrated! that and jm barie had another rly good one, he said "never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting." smart guy. sooo im thinking of changing my blog header again, its boring me...

oh its gonna be a good day. i can tell!!! and youth group tonite... should be interesting :/ ah well, i am braaaaaaaaaave. oooohh ooohh ooooh in another loopy mood today... gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarayyyyyypes! man, whered that come from? im so silly.... ooh serious now! my neighbors got robbed last nite (jim and shan for those who know... prolly just court) but i guess someone came in and stole just one thing, she didnt mention what, and the person didnt touch anything else... she (shannon) was kinda freaked out, i dunno iss kinda scary. laaaa lalalalalalalalallala ~!! ooh its kinda cooly out, man, i guess when i finish this i should prolly get out of my pajamas and put on some actual clothes. then i might have to wear jeans. hmm. its kinda humid so mebbe not. oh man, youthgroup tonite means having to put on make up and do my hair ugh, its such a pain being a girl... but at the same time i wouldnt want to be a guy either. hmm. ooooh heres some beach pictures!!

ummmmmmmm feeling weeird now... kinda loopy?

im feeling kind of looooooooooooooooooopy and i dont really know why, iss been a strange day. im not bragging here ( ahem plushie, who seems infinitely annoyed with my elation of this subject), just stating facts... im out of school, so i got to sleep in (yaaaay) well, till 9 anyways, couldnt sleep after then which is surprising since i was up all hours of the night thinking... thats what thinking did for me! anyways, so then i had to babysit the sibs, and i got alot more time to think which kind of scared me. i swear i have multiple personalities... so heres the story for anyone who doesnt know.
1. adorable guy says he got fb so he could talk to me
2. talk to guy, we apparently like each other. cool beans...
3. guy calls my father then meets him to discuss whatever (agh, really? soooo lame)
4. guy says very sweet nice things to me
5. guy doesnt talk to me for a week
6. guy tells me he wants to be friends, makes several excuses
7. i get mad
8. i get over it
xxx
thats what happened, whatever. it was my own fault, i should have seen right through him but i didnt, im usually not so... erm i dunno, willing to believe a guy, but i did and now i learned my lesson the hard way. but its funny, once i got over the hurt, i was kind of relieved, cuz the more i thought about it, the more i realized hey~ i have like nothing in common with this guy... wow, that could have been awkward... and stuff like that. so maybe its a blessing in disguise? whatever.

so my sister and i were watching americas nxt top model today (guilty confession here, i love that show!!!!) and so now she is in my room dressing the barbies in skimpy outfits and instructing them to " use their faces to convey their emotions" yeah, it kind of scares me. man, i love her to death!!!!

more later, my internet is going to shut off!!!
