fun & games


these are awesome puzzles! tip: make sure all the edge tiles have no out-bound lines. that way all your untangling will be inside the box.
anywho... this week has just been icky. i think this is how it is junior year though. and i have to get up earlier tomorrow so i can go to the superconference @ UT i'm excited :) i've signed up for several events. Computer Applications, and Headline & News Writing. i *think* i'll talk to mr. boggs about poetry readings on monday. ah! and tuesday is my first knit night in forever. then thursday is my OWN knitting club at school. scary. monday night brings the first rehersal of arsenic & old lace with crew (which i made). and i have driving hours to be don on friday. busy! weil, i'm off to bed to read and sleep well. hopefully.

well it is finally here.

blog action day. just getting this out of the way: i'm going to post an ETA later on.


so basically, i want to ask why is everything up to us? believe someone who is taking a US history class right now. the US has never learned the lesson of keeping thier nose out of everyone's bidnez. there are plenty of the examples. it is insane to think that we can so-called liberate everyone.

so why, i ask, is the solution to this 'global warming' pushed off onto the scientists of america?

it is nine-thirty.

one minute, i hate writing and language all together. and i want to take a vow of silence, and express myself through facial expressions and water colors for the rest of my life.

the next, i'm falling in love with another word, another phrase, another plot line or lead or headline or character. and i want to do nothing but write and talk and learn about letters and words and the gift of tongue for the rest of my life.

but for now, i recklessly sign up for NaNoWriMo and wait anxiously for my intellectually under stimulated counterpart. oh my. that sounded pretentious. but it's true. i feel like no one understands when i try to express how a book makes me feel, how one word versus another can change a whole news story. how badly i want to break stories, both news worthy and spine worthy.

i need to get out of here.

it is nine thirty six.

au revoir

YAY!

I finally* got City of Bones by Cassandra Clare! I have to bring back another book though, because we're not really allowed to have two tayshas books at once. The other one I've got looks much less interesting, so i'll probably be bringing that back tomorrow.

In other news, Comedy Night Live was ah-maze-ing :D I was grinning nearly all night, and I even saw Zoe and part of the cast at Denny's afterwards.** It brought me back to the good times of freshman year. And Inner Circle.

I've pretty much made up my mind about this whole debacle. I think I'm going to go back to theatre, but I'm only gonna be a stand in or something. Not like a full time member. And I'm going to ask if I can work on hours. Then I'll officially re-join so that I'll be there while I'm a senior.

Alright, third lunch is over. Back to the real world, and on to theatre. Ugh, i wish i could stay here all day long.

*I've been waiting like, ten years to read it.
** Denny's food sucks. Don't eat there.

Word of the Day

dictionary.com reads me like a book. subscibers get text messages with a word and a definition. i just recieved the one for today. it reads

exculpate: v. to clear from alleged fault or guilt.

which is kinda funny, in an odd way, because i finally went and talked to boggs this morning about dropping the class. and it really was nice talking to him because he was honest, and he basically said what i was feeling. he thinks i add insight to the class (i like talking), and he enjoys my writting (i like to write), and thinks that i have a good grasp on the work. But, on the other hand, he understands about RL and knows that sometimes kids just can't handle the AP workload. he also said that if he were selfish, he would want me to cut off the extra curricular. but i barely have any! and i want to add the inner circle back in! so i think i will have to drop. maybe i'll ask around for a third period, english III teacher.
all in all, i fell better now that i've finally talked to him, even though it didn't give me much 'closure', in his words.

on another note:
CNL tonight :D i can't wait. it's gonna be so fun! Phillip, the senior, is in it, and he is so freakin' hilarious!! I'm a bit nervous, because I don't want to smile and ruin my two skints, but ah, it is so hard to not laugh. and canary smiles? pfft.

crap. the bell rang. back to french. buhyes <2

i am officially mad at myself. i was doing so well, so well at this blogging thing. so now i have two new goals. blog every other day. shower every other day. as for the later, i normally say i do, but i just never find the time and i go four days sometimes without realizing it. it's not like i don't want to. i mean, i don't but it takes so much time and so by the time i do have time for anything, it's late and i go straight to sleep. half the time i barely have time to sleep and eat, much less maintain proper hygeine. but the dermotologist said that showering regularly is important, which i know. and since he confirmed i have staph, i need to work on that. so tomorrow:

before 11am i will be awake and my hair will be clean and my skin will be soft and my nails (all twenty) will be clipped and black. my medicine will be taken (15 mg, and the green one) and breakfast will be eaten. after 11am homework will be conqured: all the math so far, the english card, speak french. around 1 o'clock eat lunch. then until 1:30pm finish homework and study french.
about 2pm go to dad's and get costume ready for CNL & chat. between 2 & 4pm sweep kitchen floors, mop. shine floors. knit at least 4 rows on RQ lace, pet toby, photograph, etc

eat dinner @ 5

around 8pm
one new blog post will appear

I finished

Thirteen Reasons Why. it took a while to get through, because I connected with Hannah so well. kind of spooky, but i mean, i really understand where she was coming from. Everything is caused by everything, and you cannot pinpoint one exact reason why someone feels the way they do. But today I reached a little epiphany. In English, Boggs was talking about his humanist philosophy, and it was amazing to connect his words to Hannah's. more later...
