I GOT SILLY BANDZZZ a purple penguin (haaaa ironic) and an orange seal :3 i feel way cool now... what i really want are dinosaurs tho, epic. well today should be fuuuun~ not. my dad woke me up at 9:00 ( we're leaving, you gotta get up and babysit) so i rolled over and said alrite i'll be up in a minute. so ten minutes later, i come upstairs and get informed that since i wasnt upstairs before the parents left, leah is now in charge and not me. :/ i was not happy. but now im like alrite... took a 30 minute shower, made a mess in the kitchen, lounging around in my pjs all while listening to leah try to contrl the sibs~ ooooh i could get used to this ;). the only downside is that i dont get paid, but thats alrite. im not particularly needing money for anything at the moment... so later today we get our korean students from MSU. they will stay tonite and tommorow nite and return to MSU sunday nite... we've been doing this for 6 years now so its nothing new, but its still always an adventure. its fun tho, we learn alot of culture and some basic language skills so tahts really cool... but it also means we have to be on our best behavior 24/7 meh.

laaaaaaaaaaa la la la. so did i mention i got a guitar? ive been having all sorts of crazy fun with it~ i totally suck, but its all good you gotta start somewhere. plus i was majorly sick of piano so its nice to have a change. and i have some songs i've done that have been dying for some guitar and NO MORE PIANO ( its the effect, you know?) so thats nice too.... and im noticing a pattern, like a zillion songs have the same chord pattern which is interesting O.o

i need to stop reading harry potter before i go to bed. i was reading the goblet of fire last nite, and this morning i woke up and remembered i had this crazy dream that i went over to clean these ppls house, but there was no one there and i was like what the cookies? so i go outside and they have this giant bean garden (court and plushie, can you think where THAT came from...) and im like imma go pick some and eat em! so to do this i had to stand on their car and hop on the roof ( yes, beans on the roof) and i looked into the car and there were the ppl, dead with a horrified expression on their faces... then i looked over and there was a giant snake coming towards me... then i woke up. weird.

in other news, i got a formspring thing and am having oodles of fun with it, so if you wanna ask me some questions, search me under .:kara:. and ask away ;)

song of the day: heartbeat by remedy drive

i has a guitar and a mousie! my guitar i actually got for free from an old teacher of mine (mrs carr for those of you who know her) because i helped out at her garage sale, and i just recently got the thing tuned and strung so now i can play!! alrite so it doesnt sound all that great, but its a challenge. i am SOOO sick of piano its nice to have a change! plus with guitar you can take it wherever you want whereas a piano... not so much. and i really cant read music... how sad is that? ive been playing piano like 5 years and can't read music? well i can, but i cant. like i COULD if i worked really hard at it and wanted to spend forever,but i generally just memorize the sheet music for the songs i like so i dont have to deal with it again :/ yes, i know i am messed up. so so far all i have to worry about it chord names with guitar, im not worrying about finger picking and all that yet. so i can play teardrops on my guitar and beautiful eyes (both by tay swift), collide (howie day), bubbly (colbie caillat) and i think thats about it. all of them have basically the same chord progressions so its all good. and i have WORSHIP CAMP next week woot woot~ put your haaaaands up! hey PW are you coming or what? i havent heard anything from anyone about it...
xxx
my mousie. i have named him/her jacopo. it is currently somewhere in my room, i suspect under my dresser as that is where i have been leaving oyster crackers and then they are gone. he ran out of my room the other day and my mum SCREAMED and was all time to buy traps! but they didnt yet, so i;m really hoping to catch him so i can let him go outside. id like to keep him, but i dont think he'd be very since he's used to the great outdoors. speaking of which im not sure exactly how he got in. i mean yeah i got some ideas... but who knows.
xxx
in other news, ive been having drivers training lately. i hate it. i cant wait to get a lisence, like i really want to get one, but i hate all this sitting. and my teacher is NUTS! this guy... *sigh. most of you (court and plushie) have heard all about his craziness so i wont go into details but really he's nuts, plain and simple.

oh man. that is all i can say.

parents and other unecessary evils

song of the day: here in your arms by hellogoodbye
xxx
hey. i'm really not very happy with my parents right now, they... man they have done a lot, but lately they have become ridiculously controlling and I don't even know why. I don't understand most of their decisions, let alone AGREE and I have made that very clear to dear Father but since i'm just a teenager, it doesnt really matter what *I* say now does it? nope. my input is pretty much invalid~! but it was worth a try, maybe. also, other peoples parents are being dumb too. okay parent singular. what is the thing that parents dont want their kids to enjoy life so they pull all priveleges? or the one that makes their kids really happy, the important one... *sigh. so, parents? listen to your kids, they know more than you think and understand more than you do in all your parental wisdom some times. deal with it alrite? it wont kill you to listen to me, to trust me, to think that maybe sometimes my mind isnt ravaged by hormones like you all assume. I have a brain and sometimes, I use it more often than you.
xxx
i am so drained today. even my mom mentioned that my eyes were bloodshot~ in the end i dont care tho, its all worth it. that wont make sense to most of you but... alrite. anyways. so today has been interesting, i got up around 8 to babysit then fell asleep in the shower, then i went downstairs to get out of my pjs and ended up falling asleep yet again... when i woke up i was like oh SNAP the kids are upstairs arent they...so i rushed upstairs and luckily they were still watching TV and werent like murdering each other. well the rest of my babysitting went fairly well, and when mum got home i stumbled downstairs and crashed for a while then came upstairs, made myself a chili dog (well kinda.. taco meat on a hot dog), ate an apple and now here i be! so, my bloggers, the world will keep turning and people will keep living their lives but today more than any other day i wish i could just pause it all and breathe.

crazy? why yes, i think i am, do you have a problem with it?

song of the day: story of a girl by nine days

things i will never understand (part one):

1. whats the big deal about the tab on the mattress that cannot be removed... i plan on removing mine soon and getting a video of me being such a rebel. I mean really, why's it so important to leave the tag on?
2. why parents are so randomly strict. i don't understand alot of the things my parents are so set on... like for one they never let me call guys, unless its like for homework stuff. since this is hello the modern world this makes no sense to me at ALL but alrite, whatever...
3. weed whackers. i had to use one yesterday and it almost killed me, no really it was reallyyy bad. first of all, i had to wear these horrid safety glasses that made me look like a GEEK and then all this grass shot out at me and made me look like i had hairy green legs.... then the stupid blue whippy stuff kept unraveling everywhere. finally, the last three feet i litterally ripped the grass out of the ground myself to avoid using the beast
4. guys that buy girls necklaces with their (the guys) name on it. this seems random, but i was looking through my diary today and on my HS trip we went to the hoover dam and my homebro borrowed some money to buy his girlfriend a necklace with his name on it. alrite, am i just a feminist freak or does this bother you too? its like a dog peeing on a hydrant " THIS IS MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE!" its like by accepting it, she's saying "my name isnt good enough. i'll be just like him" i dunno, this just BOTHERS me, its like well my identity is shot, you are sooo much more important... what do you think? aminuts?
5. html. i really dont get html, i have tried to mess with it b4 and yeah wow, that didnt work out so well...
6. earwigs. what is their purpose in life beyond looking icky? *shudder* i HATE those things, they're just NASTY i've taken to keeping a cup of water in my room and just dropping them in it when i find them so they can drown, yeah harsh. what can i say.
7. nature. i dont like it. plushie, im sure you know exactly what i mean.
xxx
in other news, my turncoat siblings went to see a clown today. i am still horrified. and in MORE news, court i still have to do that room meme~ esp since i just moved a ton of stuff around and got a bigger bed, yaaay. speaking of bigger bed, its strange, its gonna take me awhile to get used to the fact that if i wanted to i could sleep completey spread out and still barely take up all the room! ho hum. ooooh did i mention i had some amazing tea a few days ago? lemme find some pictures... so my dad went to take our rude arab friends back to MSU and called to say he was at bubble island, what did i want... so before now id only ever had like plain and strawberry milk tea with the black bubbles, but i was like hmm im feeling like fruity stuff so i got a strawberry something or other like snow tea or something? with mango stars... oooh yummmmmmm





xxx
so i start drivers training today. im not liking that idea... specially since its 3 weeks 6-8 every frappe night! grr. whatevah.
stay awesome my loves!

a run in with the weed whacker and other unfortunate tales

song of the day: if i am by nine days~ best song ever

good morning. and indeed it is a good morning. lovely actually. these mornings, however may very well be the death of me! maaaaaaaaaaaan. anyways. so i got up around 10 ish, and found myself on the floor, with no blankets or pillows, just sprawled in the middle of my room! for those of you who dont know, im getting a new bed ( upgrade from twin to full woot woot) so my mum took out my old frame and boxsprings and everything leaving me with only my mattress, pillows etc... this makes it very easy to just roll off the bed and onto the floor, which apparently was my dillema. i was so tired, its a good thing i was on just the mattress or that would have been a big thunk down to the concrete floor...in other news, a very loud cricket has taken residence in my window well, and im not sure how i feel about this. I love crickets, and i love listening to them, but this one is rather loud and random, he'll start chirping for 5 minutes at TOP VOLUME then nothing for 15 minutes, then he'll be back... like he's giving a concert or something. I shall name it Cameron the Cricket and i shall love him forever. ahem. rite-o, ANYWAYS.
xxx
oh yeah, i must tell about the horridly rude men that came over yesterday. not only did they not eat any of the giant meal we made for them, but they were completely disinterested and silent making for some very awkward moments. then, after a short walk they turned to my dad and said " uh... can we go now?" with not even a thanks or nice of you to have us over! grrrrrrrrrrooowwwwl. whatever.
xxx
and i also had a run in with the grill in which i was almost a piece of charred-girlie. turn all the burners on my dad said, then push the red button. i did this and THREE FEET OF FLAMES SHOT OUT AT ME! this caused much laughter from my dad, who i was talking to on the phone, and much screaming and then laughter from me. its really not funny!!
xxx
and then the weed whacker, so i finally figured that beast out and then it started to rain. first of all, the little blue whippy thing kept getting sucked in so it wouldnt do anything, then it just wouldnt work ( well maybe that was cuz it wasnt plugged in... :/) then it rained. and now i have to go start it again cuz its not raining. *sigh.
xxx
so im getting back in the bloggy spirit now~ as soon as my wifi is up and running again yahll might get a few more posts, but until then...
love, peace and gummies for all

song of the day: accoustic # 3 by the goo goo dolls

haaaay. ive decided i am devoting myself to atleast one post every two days or i know i will just stop posting alltogether. so today has been alrite so far, okay lemme rephrase, today has been WOWZA AWESOME so far, atleast my early morningness, and the rest of today should be interesting... we have 2 college guys from prince mohammed college (theyre at MSU rite now) coming over for lunch :/ this will be an adventure, i guess they dont ever really touch girls at all so no handshakes or anything. hmm.
xxx
once again i am reading my very favoritest book ever~ cage of stars by jacquelyn mitchard. and my other two favoritests books, prisoner of azkaban and truth about forever. happpppy. oh~ confession. declaration. scott westerfield is a GENIUS. i swear, if you havent read his stuff you are REALLY missing out. i love how in all of his books theres the idea that you have to question the ppl in charge, have to question the norm, think outside the box and take matters into your own hands. i dont know how someone could have such an incredible mind.

okeee mums making me get off... ill tell you all about our college friends later. k? k.

so we went to see toystory3 yesterday, that was rly cute~ i liked it. the ken guy in it is absolutely hilarious, at the end woody reads this note on nice stationary with bubbly hand writing and lots of little hearts everywhere and someones like " wow, barbie has great handwriting." and some else is like " uh thats not barbie... and at the bottom is says 'love,ken' " hahaha. it was goofy, and vaguely violent for disney but i liked it all the same. so since we were in GL already we went to Lickety Split for ice cream (omw, so many memories there....) and decided to drive by our *sniffle* old house... i thought i was going to cry! as we drove around i saw the house where my best friend used to live, the house where kim dave and their dog lived ( really great ppl, like my best adult friends i adored them), the place where old decrepit bessie lived... she had this great trampoline she let me jump on... then our house... my favorite house that we've lived in. even tho we only lived there about 4 years and i was young, its where most of my memories are... then we passed diane and mikes house... and mickey, their son was outside on the phone~ 200 pounds heavier than when i last saw him! haha, funny story. i had the biggest crush on this kid when we lived there, i was like 5 at the time and he was like the bomb~ i used to sing the "hey mickey you're so fine..." song under my breath. at the time he was like 15 too so it was really funny. oh man, i could go on forever here stuck in my memories, but i wont. ill leave and finish ebay stuff!

the battle of the belly button

dear blogger, i regret to inform you that i have not felt in any way motivated to post in quite some time. i have cheated on you with my diary because some things are just too secret to tell you about. please dont be angry, just understand that your style isnt my style right now and i cant really say all that i need to say to you so i might be a bit vague in the near present/futureness. don't take this the wrong way, i still care for you, i just don't really feel like including you in "the loop." nevertheless, I will do my best to keep you informed atleast of day to day events and check in to let you know that I am still alive, but beyond that i make no promises. please understand me when i say i still love you.
sincerely,

with that said, i feel obligated to blog now. *sigh. okay, ill think of something cuz it HAS been awhile since i've actually posted :/. well, this past week was day camp, and we had our crazy carnival on friday which was loads of fun... except i didnt get to get my face painted cuz the line was too long and they wouldnt lemme in the bounce house ( :-O... no fair!). but over all it was fun, im sad its over~ life is kinda boring w/o something to do everyday, especially when that something consists of catching frogs, wading in swamps, dancing around with friends and being silly! but anyways, im back to normal life. well saturday was an epic flop... we danced for art in the park but our music died so it didnt really work out at all. then we went to the beach... which was alrite, but its kinda an icky beach. and then church, which was also alrite. nothing out of the ordinary. then today was strange, i got up around nine and lazed around for awhile, then i ended up back in my room and i guess i fell asleep cuz next thing i knew it was noon and my mom was standing over me asking why i wasnt working on doing the laundry... then i had to get up (*sigh, i was soooo tired) and do laundry... then leah and her strange friend wanted me to take their pictures all glamourous so we did that. and now, my parents are out seeing the A Team and im babysitting,and we are making smores with graham crackers and swiss cake rolls... mmmmmm <3 okay. now im getting off here and doing my job of bleh babysitting.
