I've been having some weird dreams lately. I'm going to share some I remember because they're quite interesting.
Over the weekend I dreamt that Ben Folds came and played a show at my school. Pretty much no one knows who Ben Folds is, so the school as a whole didn't really care much, but I was freaking out because I love him! Anyway, attendance was mandatory, so the whole school was there. After he played a few songs, Ben asked if anyone knew any of his songs or had a request. I eagerly raised my hand, and no one else did. So he called me on stage and we sang one of his songs. It was EPIC. And I hugged him. I really hope that would someday happen, because that was an awesome dream. Onto the next one.
I was at a slumber party with a couple of my friends. We decided we wanted ice cream. We went to get the ice cream at an ice cream shop. It was like an ice cream restaurant where there were tables and chairs and waiters and menus and things of that sort, except ice cream was the only thing on the menu. As the waiter was leading us back to our table I walked past Jim, Dwight, and Ryan from The Office and instead of stopping and asking for their autographs or doing anything like that, I said, "HI FIVE JIM! HI FIVE DWIGHT! HI FIVE RYAN!" and continued walking. THAT was weird. I hope that happens too.
Last night I had ANOTHER weird dream. I was in school and suddenly the headmaster pulls me out of class. He said, "You play guitar right?" To which I replied, "Yes..."
then he said, "I want you to play American Pie over the loud speaker today." I had no idea why he asked that, I just ended up playing that for the whole school over the loud speaker. Not sure if I want this one to come true...It'd be too weird.

Ok, wow. I didn't know it had been over 2 months.
I've been doing lots of things over the past two months, which is why I haven't been blogging or reading blogs. I know that's a horrible reason, but today I will write a blog and catch up on reading everyone else's blogs. BLOG BLOG BLOG. I'll just jump right into it then.
Nothing interesting really happened in October. On Halloween I went to my friend Jessica's house and we saw Where the Wild Things are and our only reaction to it was, "Wow...What?...That was weird..." She isn't allowed to go trick or treating or do anything of that sort on halloween, and my other friends were having a huge party and were going to watch scary movies. I'm not that great in scary movies, so Jessica and I decided we'd hang out on halloween. It was fun. How weird is it that I'm writing about Halloween in DECEMBER?
November was NaNoWriMo and apparently it was also give-as-many-tests-and-quizzes-and-projects-as-you-possibly-can-so-students-cannot-have-a-social-life-or-attempt-to-write-a-novel month to the teachers. I started the novel out great in the first week, despite changing my entire story line the day before November. However, the second week was filled with tests along with the third week, so I had no time to write. By the fourth week I was so far behind and disconnected from my novel that I didn't even know where it was going, so I just gave up. Thanksgiving was quite mundane. We went to our cousin's house in coral springs and ate then left. Same food, same everything.
At the end of November, my Uncle Baz and Auntie Lynn came down from England. It was so awesome to see them because the last time I saw them was about three years ago. A couple of my friends met them and my friends were in awe that they were meeting REAL british people with ACCENTS. It was quite funny.
That brings us to December. In the first week our school put on this english medieval feast and show that combined drama, orchestra, and the choir, called Madrigal. My Aunt and Uncle came, and they enjoyed it. The room where we, the orchestra, played had horrible acoustics, so we probably sounded awful. And I, being the awesome cellist I am, was last chair. Apparently no one could see me, which I found quite funny. After the orchestra played, which was fairly early on, we could leave. Since my family was eating at the madrigal thing, they had to stay the whole time, and since Alex was a mime, she had to preform the whole time. So I ordered a pizza and shared it with some of my dorkestra friends. Then we had to do all that the next night, and then we were done.
Fast forward a couple days, and my aunt and uncle eventually had to fly back to Evesham, which was really sad. I miss them, but hopefully Alex and I get to go to England in the near future to see the rest of the family.
Last weekend, I think it was last weekend, I got a new guitar. I've played for about 3 years, and my old one needed to get fixed. My mom decided she would get my a new one for Christmas and we'd fix my old one and give it to Alex, because she just recently expressed an interest in playing. "Why did your mom give it to you last week when you said she was getting it as a Christmas present?" you ask. Well, my mom didn't know which one to get me, and she wanted to make sure she got the right stuff for it, so I went to Sam Ash with her and we picked one out. It's a black acoustic-electric Ibanez AEG10E. It's pretty awesome.
I think that about covers everything worth mentioning. I'm really sorry for being away for so incredibly long. Now I'm going to catch up reading everyone else's blogs.
DFTBA! (like I did for the past two months)

Bones (the television show) is like a Cell apparently
I've been M.I.A. from this blog for awhile. Sorry about that! So, here is the obligatory catch-up blog post.
Last week I saw The Whomping Willows and Justin Finch-Fletchly in concert. That was really awesome! Matt (The Whomping Willow) and Justin were really cool people and I got two CDs, two pins, and a kazoo, so that was pretty sweet.
That's about the only interesting thing that happened last week. So I'll just move on to what happened this week.
I woke up Monday thinking that the day would be horrible because 1. it was one of the days where I have the classes I don't like and 2. it was a Monday. However, I rolled over in my bed, and grabbed my phone to check to see if I had any twitter updates or texts and my awesome friend LyTysha texted me saying "Happy Monday". That made me feel better about the day, and I ended up having a rather awesome Monday.
I don't really remember much about Tuesday, so I'll move onto Wednesday. Wednesday, along with almost every other high school in the country, we took the PSATs. It was relatively easy, and I think I did pretty well on it. I was in a good mood for some reason for the rest of the day, so it was a good day.
Onto Thursday. I had a math test which I totally aced, and that's about the only noteworthy thing about school that day. It was a good day, but then I got horrible news about the show Bones. If you don't know what Bones is, it's a show about a forensic anthropologist helping the FBI solve murders. Anyway, there aren't going to be any new episodes until NOVEMBER because of stupid baseball! It's horrible!
Oh, speaking of Bones (the show), I have to do a science project where I compare Bones (the show) to a cell. We had a choice between doing a Cell Simile (which is what I'm doing), a research paper about a biologist, or writing a story using a Cell as the setting. I, being somewhat indecisive, could not choose one at all. I didn't original want to do the simile, I had actually convinced myself to do anything BUT the simile. But then I asked my teacher what I should do, and she said compare it to Bones (because she knows I love that show). So, now for my project I get to watch episodes of Bones to find out who is like what part of a cell. That's pretty fun.
Friday, I was reminded why I took Orchestra (or dorkestra as most of us call it). Usually after a concert the teacher brings in donuts or something. We had a concert on Monday, but didn't have class Wednesday because of the PSATs. So Friday he brought in bagels and coffee from Dunkin' Donuts. It was awesome. We spent half the class (about 45 minutes) eating bagels, drinking coffee, and doing nothing. My friend Joy wanted me to make her coffee. She said she never really liked coffee, and I told her I could get her to like it. So, I made her coffee and she LOVED it! I felt accomplished.
Fast forward to last night. Normal people usually go out and do something on a Friday night, but I did not. Instead, I stayed home and watched Much Ado About Nothing. It was so good! I loved it. I might watch it again today.
Anyway, I think that about covers everything. I haven't talked to Maddy and Alex for awhile. I miss you guys!

I watch too much television...
I don't have school today. It's, like, a teacher work day or something, so NO SCHOOL! I'm watching re-runs of The Office pretty much all day today. The Office is my favorite show, and the new season started last Thursday. Isn't that EXCITING?! Last nights episode wasn't as good as the premiere, but it was still AWESOME!
NCIS also premiered Tuesday, and that was FANTASTIC! A lot of stuff I didn't see coming happened, so that was good. There should have been more of Ducky and Abby though...that made me sad that they weren't in the episode as much as they should have been. Then NCIS: Los Angeles premiered, and that was also really good. Although, none of my friends watched it, so I couldn't discuss it with anyone, so that was rather sad.
I had a good week this week. Besides the keys trip which I don't really want to discuss at length because of my strong dislike towards it. In short, boat rides are horrifying, I don't want to be a marine biologist, and Finding Nemo is the best movie ever! We watched it on the drive back although I think I was the only one to watch it...
This week was just...good, besides that. I don't know why, it just was. I GOT MY BRACES OFF! That's a reason why this week was good! I went to have popcorn the day I got them off, but I burned it so that was sad. Ummm...I don't know what else to write here, so I think I'll just end this post.
DFTBA!

an agglomeration of stuff you probably don't care about.
Tomorrow I get to wake up at the wonderful hour of 4 in the morning because I have to go on a field trip that I really do not want to go on. We spend 2-3 hours driving down to the Keys to go snorkeling. I don't want to go because I do not enjoy swimming or any other activity that involves getting into a lot of water. Then we drive back after an exhausting trip and arrive back at the school around 9-10 at night. Then we all get to go to school the next day more tired than we usually are. Oh, and I have a Latin test. I think I'll do pretty well on it if I manage to stay awake though.
On the BRIGHT SIDE...um, I can't think of one right now.
Anyway, I memorized some Shakespeare this weekend for fun. Is that weird? Nope, just super nerdy. It's Juliet's lines from Act 2 Scene 2 of Romeo and Juliet. Yeah, I'm so awesome I memorize Shakespeare for FUN.
OOOOOOHHHHH, I forgot, I signed up for NaNoWriMo today. Mostly because I was bored. So, I'm on there now. I somewhat know what I'm writing my novel about, but I'm afraid I'm going to think it's a horrible idea half way through writing it...
This is just a scattered mess of stuff. Sorry.
I gave my ukulele away. My friend, Susanna really wanted one but couldn't find a place to get one, so I gave her mine. I wasn't playing it that much and it was taking up space so I just...gave it away. She's very happy now.
Uhhhhmmmmm, I think I'm going to end this here.

I'm unsocial and don't know the difference between a metaphor and simile
I just got back home from a friend's house. I don't usually go to friends's houses, I really don't like to. I don't know why, I'm just not that social when it comes to hanging out with people outside of school. We went to our school's football game, where I kind of just got shoved aside from the people I was there to hang out with so that was fun. Luckily my best friend, Sara, showed up around half time so I spent the rest of the game with her :)
After the football game we played Catchphrase. That game is SUPER FUN. If you don't know what it is I'll do my best to try to explain it. Okay, I tried to explain it, but I'm not good at explaining, so here's a link to the wikipedia page about it. I was really good at the science category, and totally got EVERYTHING...almost.
Speaking of science, we have to go on a biology trip to the keys. I go on the 21st with most of my friends, others are going on the 14th. I really don't want to go because I'm somewhat terrified of the ocean, which is why I am a Floridian who NEVER EVER EVER goes to the beach. It's weird though because I love the rain, but hate the ocean, and my favorite pokemon are always water pokemon, and Poseidon is my favorite Greek God. So this field trip should be interesting...
On a completely different note about biology, we had to write a 3 paragraph essay on Global Warming. It was really easy, and I wrote an AWESOME conclusion. I used Newton's 3rd Law of Motion as a simile. I know I tweeted saying I used it as a Metaphor, but it was really late at night and I got confused.
I'm going to try to blog at least every weekend now just so I can get back into the habit of blogging. I don't blog enough, and I really should blog more because I love writing. However, more blogging will have to wait because I finally got Catching Fire and my computer is about to die.

Procrastination.
Yep, I'm procrastinating. I probably won't go to bed until early in the morning because of it. There are just so many more things that intrest me right now than my history, algebra, and biology homework!
I SHOULD be answering some history questions. I SHOULD be doing an algebra practice test as a way to study and because if I complete it I get extra credit on the test. I SHOULD be typing up an essay that includes 2 Bible verse and is about global warming. However, I am blogging.
During the time it will take me to write up this blog, I'd probably be able to at least get my history homework done. I'm completely rambling on in this post as a way to procrastinate. THIS is NOT good.
Let me talk about Apologetics since Lytysha wants to know about it and Alex wants to know what it is. Apologetics is the branch of theology that teaches you how to defend your faith. So far, we haven't really talked about much in the class. We did watch a clip of Monty Python and the Holy Grail though. The part where the people try to prove that the girl is a witch. Love that movie. I'll tell you more about the class when there's more to tell about it.
So Glee was on last night. Not really sure if I like it that much, though. I mean, the Journey that they sing is awesome, so that's definitely a positive about it. And they guidance counselor is hysterical. Especially in the scene where she's talking to the girl in her office and the girl says something like, "Have you ever loved someone so much where you just locked yourself in a room and listened to sad songs and cried?" and the guidance counselor replies, "No." and has a flash back to when she's sitting in her car crying listening to "all by myself" That was very well acted and very funny.
Um....I really have no idea what else to write about. I'm rather upset about that because I wanted to procrastinate more! Well, guess I'm going to do some homework now. :(

A rather hectic week in the land of Christy.
I had an interesting week last week.
First on Sunday I had an allergic reaction to some medicine I was taking. Monday we went to the doctor (Sadly, not the time lord doctor from Gallifrey with two hearts) who didn't do anything about it. Tuesday we went to a different doctor (Still, not a time lord) who gave me a shot and then took four viles of blood :( Wednesday I was feeling MUCH better, but still had to stay home from school. Thursday I went to school, which was good because I started to go crazy at home. I mean, second week of school and I'm stuck at home for the first half of it! That's just not right. School was fine that day. It was one of my easy days where I only have Orchestra, Latin II, Apologetics, and Health. However, the next day was definitely NOT an easy day. I have Honors Biology, Honors English, Honors History, and Algebra I. All that in ONE DAY is NOT FUN.
Thursday night and Friday deserve their own paragraphs because of how hectic the were. So here:
Thursday night I had to do a LOT of homework to make up for missing so much all ready. I wanted to do all of the homework because I really did NOT want to fall behind at the very beginning of the school year. So, I was up until 3 am doing homework and studying and all that fun stuff. My bed was covered in books and I didn't feel like moving them so I decided to sleep on our EXTREMELY comfortable house. Seriously, I slept SO GREAT on that couch! The 3 hours of sleep I managed to get were AWESOME.
Friday morning we went to McDonald's to get Iced Coffee. Who would have thought that MCDONALD'S would make SUCH GOOD COFFEE? I love it :) Anyway, when I got to school I had to review for a biology quiz to make sure I remembered everything. WELL, when the quiz came around, I remembered all the hard stuff, but forgot one of the definitions of science! I was VERY mad at myself, and still am. It's FRUSTRATING to stay up that late and forget an easy question! After biology I headed over to english. I had all my homework done and the teacher was very proud of me! I think I do well in english when I, you know, try. Then it was time to lunch, but I went to Alegbra to catch up on the lessons I missed so I would understand the lesson that day. That didn't take up the entire lunch period, so I went to biology to hand in the homework I didn't get a chance to turn in during class. When lunch ended I had to go to history, which is sometimes boring and sometimes very interesting. I don't really know what it was Friday, I just know that it was long. I had ALL my homework done, and when you've done all your history homework for that week in one night, you're going to feel VERY accomplished. I felt accomplished. The teacher was glad to see I had it all done. Then was Algebra I, which I really don't mind except the class. There are these guys who are all annoying and laugh at EVERYTHING and are always talking making the teacher mad. It makes ME mad. I want to LEARN, not to listen to your annoying laughs! After Algebra, I had to go to the doctor's (Still, not the one from Gallifrey! When will these let downs stop?) for a follow up which was quick and they said I was doing fine. Then I went to my dad's house were Alex and I started singing songs from musicals because she's always on about her drama class that I really want to switch into but am afraid it will completely mess up my schedule, and cause lots of trouble for the person who organizes the schedule. Anyway, after that we watched MONK, which is hysterical and sadly in it's last season. Then, after dinner, I pretty much fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I slept twelve hours which was nice.
Saturday went by pretty fast, and wasn't all to interesting. Sunday I did some more homework so I wouldn't have to do it all today. When I finished my homework I read the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, The Lightning Theif. Last year my friend, Nicolas, told me to read it before the last in the series came out, but I had just started reading Harry Potter, so that was a useless attempt. Thursday my Latin teacher said I should read it, so I said I would over the weekend since I STILL don't have Catching Fire. I finished Percy Jackson all yesterday, which was very easy to do because it was rather short. If you haven't read it you should, especially if all the Greek gods are interesting to you. It's quite awesome.
Well, that brings us to today. Labor day. I have school off today, which is nice. There's also an NCIS marathon on. Glad I got my homework done so I could watch it!
I hope I ended on a good note, because most of my week probably seems like a total downer. Let's just all think of something happy now so you'll be happy after reading this...Go on, think of something happy!

Tuesday we went to a different doctor (Still, not a time lord) who gave me a shot and then took four viles of blood :( Wednesday I was feeling MUCH better, but still had to stay home from school. Thursday I went to school, which was good because I started to go crazy at home. I mean, second week of school and I'm stuck at home for the first half of it! That's just not right. School was fine that day. It was one of my easy days where I only have Orchestra, Latin II, Apologetics, and Health. However, the next day was definitely NOT an easy day. I have Honors Biology, Honors English, Honors History, and Algebra I. All that in ONE DAY is NOT FUN.
Thursday night and Friday deserve their own paragraphs because of how hectic the were. So here:
Thursday night I had to do a LOT of homework to make up for missing so much all ready. I wanted to do all of the homework because I really did NOT want to fall behind at the very beginning of the school year. So, I was up until 3 am doing homework and studying and all that fun stuff. My bed was covered in books and I didn't feel like moving them so I decided to sleep on our EXTREMELY comfortable house. Seriously, I slept SO GREAT on that couch! The 3 hours of sleep I managed to get were AWESOME.
Friday morning we went to McDonald's to get Iced Coffee. Who would have thought that MCDONALD'S would make SUCH GOOD COFFEE? I love it :) Anyway, when I got to school I had to review for a biology quiz to make sure I remembered everything. WELL, when the quiz came around, I remembered all the hard stuff, but forgot one of the definitions of science! I was VERY mad at myself, and still am. It's FRUSTRATING to stay up that late and forget an easy question! After biology I headed over to english. I had all my homework done and the teacher was very proud of me! I think I do well in english when I, you know, try. Then it was time to lunch, but I went to Alegbra to catch up on the lessons I missed so I would understand the lesson that day. That didn't take up the entire lunch period, so I went to biology to hand in the homework I didn't get a chance to turn in during class. When lunch ended I had to go to history, which is sometimes boring and sometimes very interesting. I don't really know what it was Friday, I just know that it was long. I had ALL my homework done, and when you've done all your history homework for that week in one night, you're going to feel VERY accomplished. I felt accomplished. The teacher was glad to see I had it all done. Then was Algebra I, which I really don't mind except the class. There are these guys who are all annoying and laugh at EVERYTHING and are always talking making the teacher mad. It makes ME mad. I want to LEARN, not to listen to your annoying laughs! After Algebra, I had to go to the doctor's (Still, not the one from Gallifrey! When will these let downs stop?) for a follow up which was quick and they said I was doing fine. Then I went to my dad's house were Alex and I started singing songs from musicals because she's always on about her drama class that I really want to switch into but am afraid it will completely mess up my schedule, and cause lots of trouble for the person who organizes the schedule. Anyway, after that we watched MONK, which is hysterical and sadly in it's last season. Then, after dinner, I pretty much fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I slept twelve hours which was nice.
Saturday went by pretty fast, and wasn't all to interesting. Sunday I did some more homework so I wouldn't have to do it all today. When I finished my homework I read the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, The Lightning Theif. Last year my friend, Nicolas, told me to read it before the last in the series came out, but I had just started reading Harry Potter, so that was a useless attempt. Thursday my Latin teacher said I should read it, so I said I would over the weekend since I STILL don't have Catching Fire. I finished Percy Jackson all yesterday, which was very easy to do because it was rather short. If you haven't read it you should, especially if all the Greek gods are interesting to you. It's quite awesome.
Well, that brings us to today. Labor day. I have school off today, which is nice. There's also an NCIS marathon on. Glad I got my homework done so I could watch it!
I hope I ended on a good note, because most of my week probably seems like a total downer. Let's just all think of something happy now so you'll be happy after reading this...Go on, think of something happy!

First week of High School, Doctor Who, and FARMVILLE.
My first week of high school was this week. It was pretty good. So far, it seems bearable, but I've only been through one week, so we'll see.
The schedule is set up so there are four of the eight classes on each day, and they're 93 minutes long. Much different from the Middle School schedule with all classes every day and only 45 minutes long. The time change is going to take some getting used to, but I think I'll be able to do it. My teachers all seem nice, but it's only the beginning of the year! So far my favorite classes are Biology, English, and Latin II. Speaking of English, I think I wrote a KILLER essay on Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. I hope the teacher thinks it's as awesome of an essay as I think it is.
A lot of my friends are talking about this facebook application called Farmville, and OH MY GOSH it is AWESOME. I'm at level 4 or something, and my farm is really small, because I just started, but it's SO ADDICTING! My strawberries are almost done growing! SOOO, you should all get a farm so I can become your neighbor and I can send you STUFF. It's some pretty awesome stuff.
There was a Doctor Who marathon on SyFy Friday, but I was at school when they showed them. However, I recorded them all and stayed up a good portion of the night watching them. They were all around the time with the 10th doctor and Rose Tyler. I hadn't seen any of the episodes they showed, which was good. A really good episode I watched was the one called "The Doctor's Daughter" It had Martha Jones and Donna Noble instead of Rose, and was very interesting and you should watch it because I'm not going to tell you about it. Another good one was one about a High School that, after a UFO sighting, seems to have imossibly brilliant kids. The Doctor is reunited with two of his old companions from when he was his Third/Fourth incarnation, Sarah Jane Smith and K-9, the robotic dog. Very good episode that you will also have to watch. Oh, and Queen Victoria, she's a WEREWOLF.

Insert excuse about not blogging HERE
I really have no excuse for not blogging for almost a month. I've been on the computer pretty much all the time, but just never blogged. SORRY!
Anyway, my friend introduced me to this show called NCIS about a month ago, and I've been watching it pretty much constantly. I've seen almost all the episodes all ready, and am VERY excited for the new season September 22. Also, the spin off NCIS: Los Angeles looks awesome too.I never really watched a lot of T.V. until this summer. I've been watching a lot of nerdy shows. Doctor Who, Torchwood, Warehouse 13, NCIS, are the shows I've mainly been watching.
I really haven't been reading, like, at all because I've been watching all this television. I have to read for school (which starts next week) and then have to write a paper on the book the first week. I picked a good book, Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. It's REALLY long though. A bit over 500 pages, with small print. I chose it because not many students in my grade would voluntarily pick Dickens. I'm hoping to start with a good first impression on my english teacher by choosing a somewhat harder book than other students. I have until Monday to finish it, which I KNOW I can do.
I start High School Monday. I'm not super nervous about it, because I'm staying at the same school I've been in since Kindergarden. I'm only nervous about my grades. This is where it COUNTS. I need to do well so I can get into a good college and get a good career. It's rather unnerving...
On another note, I went to my friend's family coffee shop and got a smoothie. We talked about school next week, NCIS, and some other stuff. It was pretty fun. Hopefully I can go there more often in the future.
Anyway...I promise to blog more. Well, I promise to TRY to blog more.

Half-Blood Prince!
All right, I'm starting to get out of the blogging mood lately. This problem needs to be rectified. I need to blog more. I love blogging. It's a way to get me to write, which I love. All right, on to HARRY POTTER.
So, most people know that Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince came out in theaters July 15. I am proud to say I saw it at midnight! I saw it again today with my mom, and she loved it. I loved it too. Sure, it was missing a bunch of stuff, but I've accepted the fact that movies change from the books.
The Felix scene was HYSTERICAL! And, since I love Doctor Who, I loved Tom Riddle saying, "You're the Doctor, aren't you?" I don't know what they're going to do in deathly hallows, considering all the horcruxes weren't shown, and the Elder Wand was just...there. Did anyone else want Harry to just break down and cry and hug Professor McGonagall at the end when he was in Dumbledore's office? I thought that would have been nice. I love McGonagall. There should have been more Lupin, Tonks, and Neville though.
I didn't cry the first time when Dumbledore died. I just kinda laughed at it. When you read that part in the book, you've reached a point where you admire Dumbledore for his kindness, acting like a father figure to Harry, and just being funny sometimes. The movies haven't really portrayed that part of Dumbledore, so it wasn't that sad the first time. I didn't feel like the movie showed Dumbledore dying, just someone a bit similiar to Dumbledore. It wasn't the same.
The second time, however, I did cry. I thought it was sad that Harry had lost yet another person so close to him. Someone who had always been there for him. The movies sort of portrayed that, but not the same way as the books. Still, I found it a lot more sad the second time.
As a movie alone, I loved it. As a movie that was made to follow the book, I liked it.
I'll post a blog about other stuff soon. Just wanted to type this up before I forget the details.

A veritable plethora of topics rolled into one blog
Oh my. It has been SO long since my last blog, it's just insane. I haven't really been in the mood to blog, and I don't really have a good excuse. Sorry about that. This blog will probably be long because I'll have to cover all the important moments in my life that happened since my last blog. Haha.
Should I start off talking about summer school? I think I will. It's been awhile since I talked about summer school (well, it's been a while since I talked about anything on here). Anyway, up until today it was all fun and fine and everything, but the teacher just woke up on the wrong side of the bed or something today. He wasn't in a very happy mood like he usually is. We usually get to watch Numb3rs, which is a CSI type show where they solve crimes using mathematical equations, but we didn't get to today. I was sad because I LOVE that show. I've learned a lot from the 4 weeks I've been taking geometry, but I'm starting to get sick of it. It's just so much work to learn a year of a class in five weeks over the summer. I don't really want to take summer school ever again.
Now onto the topic of camp. Just when the kids were starting to like me, the head had to switch a bunch of C.I.T.s around because a lot quit (I don't blame them). There's nothing wrong with my new group, I just prefer my other one. Also, some of the counselors just sit around and do NOTHING, while the C.I.T.s are forced to do EVERYTHING. Who gets payed? The people sitting around doing nothing. Who doesn't? The people who actually WORK. It's really annoying. They take complete advantage of most of the C.I.T.s, while they just sit around. Of course, not all the counselors are like that, just most. It's really annoying, and I'm getting sick of it. The camp is divided into two "sessions",like, semesters. The first ends this week, I think. I'm trying to get out of working the second session. We'll see how it goes.
Two weekends my mom (who's birthday is today!), my sister, and I got to go to Orlando to see Pottercast, The Whomping Willows, and The Remus Lupins. The drive was fun, besides all the rain. We listened to a lot of Beatles cds due to our extreme lack of wizard rock cds. Still, you can't go wrong with The Beatles! When we got to our hotel we quickly got dressed (Alex and I in our house ties, and our mom brought her Snitch purse). Then we ate at Cracker Barrel and drove to the Orlando Public Library. Yes, the concert was in a library. A REALLY AWESOME library. Needless to say, the concert was epic, and I hugged Frack from pottercast and Matt Maggiacomo who is The Whomping Willows! After the concert everyone scurried off to the merch outside. I got a green shirt from The Remus Lupins that says "MAKE LOVE, NOT HORCRUXES" and a red tote from The Whomping Willows that says "THE WHOMPING WILLOW ALMOST KILLED ME" and a bunch of cds. After the epicness of the concert, we went back to our hotel room, afraid that sleep would wipe away all our memories.
Alex and I are getting our bedrooms redone because it's been a looooooooonnnnngggg time, and our mom thought it would be a nice graduation present (even though I don't think 8th grade graduations deserve a bunch of presents). The rooms are pretty much finished right now. I think I just need to hang my Harry Potter poster that I got yesterday at Wall-Mart. They only had one Harry Potter poster, and Alex was nice enough to let me have it, so she got a Star Trek poster. She is IN LOVE with Spock. Anyway, my room is really spiffy now.
Half-blood Prince comes out in 8 days! I'm trying to figure out when I can see it, and who I can see it with. I will definitly see it with LyTysha! I'm sure I speak for everyone, if not most, when I say that this has been the most anticipated film. The pushing back of it angered a LOT of people! The trailers and everything look SO GOOD. I stopped watching trailers and t.v. spots and full scenes a week or two ago because I decided I want to see the whole movie and not be super dissappointed because I saw all the trailers and stuff before. It would ruin it.
I'm debating whether or not I should talk about Michael Jackson. I guess I will. His death effected a lot of people. He was very talent, and I liked his music. I wasn't the world's biggest fan or anything. I just listened to it and liked it. When the news of his death hit, I didn't really fell sad. I knew I should, because anyone's death is one we should mourn, but I just wasn't. Not sure what else I should say to elaborate on the subject more. Think I'm done there.
If I left anything out, sorry. This was a lot! I'll be surprised if you make it all the way through.

I never know what to title these.
I'm working at my school's summer camp this year as a C.I.T. and today was the third day. Until recently I was pretty sure that the kids weren't to fond of me. That is, until I was about to leave today. At the end of the day we go into a room that has a bunch of toys and some computers (macs, because my school is a mac school. I hate macs), and today I had to set up the computers for the kids who wanted to play. It took forever! I'm glad I figured out how. Anyway, one of the kids who I set up a computer for, came up to me as I was about to go home and handed me this picture:

This pretty much made my day. I don't even know the kids name, and he drew me a picture! I was so happy.
The reason I said I didn't think the kids were too fond of me was because the other counselor got hugs from all the kids, and the kids would ask to play with them and everything. Also, twice I almost/actually did (not sure which) reduced two girls to tears. Not intentionally.
There is this small bounce house that is set up in the gym and only two people are allowed on at a time. When I was on "bounce house duty" this one girl wanted to go with two of her friends, and I told her only two could go on at a time. Well, what do little kids do when they normally don't get what they want? Start to cry. So, I let them on because I hate it when small children start crying (especially if I caused it).
The second time was when a girl came up to me and asked, "Do you remember me?" I really had no idea who she was so I said that I didn't. She looked crushed, and seemed on the verge of tears, and just walked away. I felt really bad even though I'm pretty sure I'd never seen her.
Those have been my C.I.T. experiences so far. Did I mention I don't get paid? I only get service hours. sigh.

Just Another Blog
It's a Saturday night, and it's summer vacation. Why am I doing nothing? I wish I could drive, so I could drive myself to a nice park and sit in the moonlight and play guitar, read, write...I just want to do something. But, I'm doing nothing. I lead an interesting life.
I really have no idea what to write about. I just started writing an entry now to...well, do something.
Tomorrow, I'm supposed to dedicate most of my day to cleaning the house. Mainly my room. This weekend seems really long...don't know why.
I saw Imagine That yesterday. That movie with Eddie Murphy, who is a really funny actor. It was a great movie, and I loved it. I suggest that you all go see it. It's worth it.
The pictures from the 8th grade dance are online, and I don't really like posting pictures on facebook because all the annoying notification from comments are, well, annoying. So here, have a picture of me and my boyfriend Nathan at the dance:

Notice how neither of us are actually looking at the camera. Psh, we're waaaaaaayyy to cool to look at the camera! If we make eye contact the camera will explode due to too much head-on awesome.
Okay, I think I'm done now. DFTBA!

Don't worry! I'm still alive!
Things I've discovered while I haven't been blogging:
I'm not at all sad about the people leaving from my grade
I could spend two hours in a book store, admiring and reading parts of books and leave without buying ANYTHING
I've got some pretty sweet dance skills
Summer school is more fun than school
My feet now hang off the end of the bed, unless I only sleep with one pillow
I have a slight addiction to twitter
Alex (starting to think I should refer to my beda buddy alex as TOA-the other alex, because my sister is also named alex. This time I mean the beda buddy) and Maddy are some of the coolest, most awesome people alive
LyTysha is also one of the most coolest and awesome people alive, but this wasn't as recent of a discovery
If I want to be rebellious, I don't punctuate my text messages correctly
The Remus Lupins are now my favorite wizard rock band
Graduation Day by The Remus Lupins should be played at all graduations, although it is mainly for Hogwarts graduations...
I can read two books at a time and NOT get confused (I've never actually been brave enough to try this until recently)
I miss my old camp very much, but can't go this year because I'm to old. I WANT TO BE THERE
I have some of the most awesome friends alive (this was not a recent discover, but I thought I should mention it anyway)
The night after the 8th grade graduation was the 8th grade dance. It was WAY better than I thought it would be! So much fun. I didn't expect slow dances to come, but alas, they did. There were only 2 or 3 though. Nathan and I slow danced together, and neither of us could actually slow dance well. It was funny though, and we enjoyed being the most awkward couple on the dance floor. At one point in the night, Nathan and I got into an intense disscussion about Dr. Who. It was GREAT.
I requested for the D.J. to play Total Eclipse of the Heart, but they DIDN'T! I wanted them to, so I could say, "You know what leakycon, I can have a dance party to that song too!" Although, it wouldn't have been as awesome as leakycon's, of course. However, my friends and I did get them to play Don't Stop Believin by Journey. Although my voice was completely shot by then, I sang as loud as I could. It was funny when pretty much EVERYONE broke into the chorus after the 1st verse. When will they learn? If you want to know more about the dance, my siste wrote a blog about it.
I'm going to summer school for five weeks and taking geometry. It's hard, but fun. The teacher, Mr. Cox (who's name reminds me of Dr. Cox from Scrubs), is really lax, but we still learn a lot from him. There are only seven people in the class: Two high schoolers who are learning Algebra 2, one other girl taking Pre-Algebra, and a total of four people taking geometry. All of which are from my grade, including my sister. I really like summer school. Oh, and the teacher doesn't give us homework!
I was in Borders the other day and went in without money (a stupid decision for someone who loves books). After my sister and I checked for nerdfighter notes-no luck-we went to the children's section to see all the Harry Potter releated stuff they had. They had Mugglenet's book Harry Potter Should Have Died, that just came out a few days ago. I flipped out, and Alex bought it for me. I read it, and it is awesome.
Not sure what else to write now. Sorry it has been so long since my last post. Please don't eat me!
DFTBA!
I'm not at all sad about the people leaving from my grade
I could spend two hours in a book store, admiring and reading parts of books and leave without buying ANYTHING
I've got some pretty sweet dance skills
Summer school is more fun than school
My feet now hang off the end of the bed, unless I only sleep with one pillow
I have a slight addiction to twitter
Alex (starting to think I should refer to my beda buddy alex as TOA-the other alex, because my sister is also named alex. This time I mean the beda buddy) and Maddy are some of the coolest, most awesome people alive
LyTysha is also one of the most coolest and awesome people alive, but this wasn't as recent of a discovery
If I want to be rebellious, I don't punctuate my text messages correctly
The Remus Lupins are now my favorite wizard rock band
Graduation Day by The Remus Lupins should be played at all graduations, although it is mainly for Hogwarts graduations...
I can read two books at a time and NOT get confused (I've never actually been brave enough to try this until recently)
I miss my old camp very much, but can't go this year because I'm to old. I WANT TO BE THERE
I have some of the most awesome friends alive (this was not a recent discover, but I thought I should mention it anyway)

Exams and why I will never build a house
Friday marked the beginning of EXAMS. I hate them, even though there is no actual homework besides studying. There is a lot of studying, and it's really annoying. This weekend alone I have no time to actually do anything, like, fun. Right now I'm re-reading (well most of it is reading for the first time) Silas Marner, because the English exam is Tuesday (Monday's no school) and I neglected to read most of that book. It's just something about reading books for school that makes me not want to, and easily lose intrest in the book. It could be a really great book, and I would just not get into it. So, in an attempt to do well on the English exam (seeing how it doesn't cover any grammar, and is basically on literature) I'm reading that book, and possibly going to look over To Kill a Mockingbird again. After I do that, I need to start studying for the History exam which is Wednesday, and then Science which is Friday I think. I don't need to study much for math, because I got that down pretty good.
After all the studying I have to paint the flooring and mosaics onto a poster board for a model of a roman house. This is another group assignment, which I hate. The latin teacher - in his attempt to make up for not giving an exam - gave us this group project where we have to build a model of a Roman house. Seriously, I hate this thing. We have to have it done by Friday, and my group is getting no where. We just started this week. TWO WEEKS IS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO BUILD A ROMAN HOUSE. I'd rather take a latin exam than do this. Ugh.
Gosh, this week is going to suck. I will be so glad when school's over. I've really hated this year.
On the brighter side-54 days!

I'm too tired to think of a title.
I'm tired and still sick. It's 10:08, and I'm going to bed right after I post this. I wasn't going to post today until I saw a comment-left very recently-saying that I should. It actually seemed more like a demand that I should blog because it was in all caps. I do have something to blog about though, and will do that here.
My Sister and I were reading some of the comments on my blog earlier today. I don't know some of my commenters, and this annoys me. There is more than one "anonymous" commenter, I have discovered, and also "I wish i was a printer." Alex told me to tell you all to, "Come out of the closet," and tell me who you are. Yeah, so, do that.
Now that that is settled, I will move on to the topic of school. There are only 11 school days left (that's not counting weekends). One would think that 11 is not that large of an amount. However, it is. It seems like school will never end. I'm really just done with it. I can't stand seeing some of the people I see every day there, and you would think (actually you would hope), that some teachers would start to lighten up. Au contraire. I'm now hating some of my classes even more now than I did at the beginning of the year. I pretty much was extremely annoyed with most of my classes at the beginning of the year, so stating I hate them now is saying something. This year has been probably my least favorite of middle school (grades 6-8 for Alex's information). Ugh, I just think this year is going by really slow and want it to be done with already.
On the bright side, I'm feeling better. I assume I can make it through school tomorrow without feeling like I'm going to pass out (thankfully my mom took me home at lunch).
When I post these blogs I never usually re-read them. I just post and then read the comments. However, I read the first sentence of my last post and realised that I used a period to end a question. I'm going to edit that, because I find it VERY irritating.
Speaking of irritating and english, it's very annoying when people make mistakes like using the wrong your/you're or there/their/they're or A LOT. I mean it's one thing if it's just a typo, but if you did it because you have no idea which one to use, then that's a problem. Come on people, not that hard. "Your" is possessive. "You're" is a contraction for you are. "There" is for a place (i.e. Look, the dog ran over THERE). "Their" is possessive, and "They're" is a contraction for they are. "A LOT" is two words. There is a wonderful song created by Hayleyghoover to help you remember this. "A lot has always been *snap snap* a lot of words. I don't know which one of you thought that the two of them should merge, but 'A' describes the quantity and 'L-O-Ts' a noun, and there's always been a space between no matter how they sound!
Bye! Hopefully I'll blog soon. You know, if you tell me you want me to blog one day I will. Even if you tell me at 11 o'clock or something. Well, I will as long as I'm awake, and/or remember you told me to blog.
EDIT: I was just looking through the comments of my previous blog (since this blog hasn't been up long and no one has commented on it), and "i wish i was a printer" asked why my group and I had to film for our book report. For the report, we could chose a variety of things. We could make a power point, play a game, build something that related to the book, etc. We chose to film a movie with some of the scenes from the book we read (Gossamer by Lois Lowery). Hope that was a good enough explanation!

Sick...again.
Wasn't it only about a week ago where I posted a blog about me being sick? It seems like it. Well, I am sick again. I'm more sick this time than the last time I was. After school yesterday my friends and I went to finish filming for our book report. Ugh, I hate that thing. Anyway, when my dad picked my sister and I up, I told him I did not feel well. When we got to his house, I fell right asleep. I stayed asleep until we (my sister and I) had to go back to our mom's house. As soon as I got to my mom's house, I threw up. Not sure if you wanted/needed to know that, but now you do. Are you ever so sick that you feel like if you eat you'll explode? Yeah, I am right now. Okay, let's move on to something besides my sickness.
Yesterday, my school had this REALLY boring award ceremony where pretty much everybody gets a certificate for something like, "Excellence in [insert class here]." It's really long and boring. You walk across the stage and they hand you a certificate saying what you got. Apparently, I showed "Excellence in Web Design." Normally, I'd think nothing of these awards, but I've never taken a class of Web Design. My sister has, I haven't. The award was ment for her, but someone (not the teacher, he checked if he entered the right name) messed up. It was rather funny actually.
So, today I'm missing school. Once again almost none of the teachers have the homework online. Ugh. I can't go to movie night tonight, and I was really excited to because the movie is rumoured to be Wall-E. I'm mad about that. I looked forward to it all week. Sorry, Mrs. Williams, I do want to go though!
You know how day time television really stinks? Even with all the movie channels I now have, there is NOTHING on. Naturally, I went to OnDemand. They had Across the Universe for free. I watched it, and sang along (badly, might I add) to pretty much all the songs. I loved it. That was the first time I've seen it.
I should probably try to eat something now.

The Great Debaters...In My English Class
Today in English we had a Debate. The Debate was whether or not The Diary of Anne Frank should be taught in 8th grade English classes. I was on the affirmative side, so my team and I had to say why it should be taught. I'm not really one for debates, but some people in my class are. I had to speak at least once, which I did. Then for the rest of class I sat and listened. Most people made some really good points, both on the negative and affirmative teams. I really enjoyed listening to the debate, but I don't want to do another one. Good thing there is only 15 days left in school. I'm getting sick of it.
My BEDA Buddies (except for adam) and I finally got to have a group skype chat. We are calling ourselves the crumpets. Like the 5AG's Scones.
Pokemon nerd break-TURTWIG EVOLVED!! Awww!
As I was saying, we are all pretty awesome, and get along well. Maureen Johnson has a talent besides writing. It is matching people together. She is good!
No idea what I was going to blog about. I thought I had something to say other than what I have said. Hmmm...if I think of it, I'll edit this post. Bye for now!

Make it or Break it
Hello,
I'm back! Christy told me blog for her today, because she DELETED my post yesterday! I am currently watching Greek on ABCfamily, and it is pretty good tonight. Let's just hope it get's better in the next 45 minutes.
Now back to Christy, I do not know why she wanted me to blog for her because I blogged for her secretly yesterday, and then she deleted it. When she came in my room and said, "Alex, can you blog for me today?" I simply replied, "Yes!"
In greek the guy was just wearing a yellow shirt!
So, Christy and I went to a Border's Book Store today and they had bins with books in them for $3.99! WHAT A DEAL!!! I think Christy and I spent about 1 hour and a half in that book store, it was amazing. Yeah, we are book nerds. After the book store we went to the mall to kill time and at Hot Topic they have the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Shirt, and I think Christy and I were fangirling.(correction-WE WERE FANGIRLING!) For those of you who don't know, My sister and I are in love with the Harry Potter book and movie series. Speaking of movies, This friday at our school we are having a movie night, and if you just so happen to go to our school and be reading this blog, then YOU should go! I personally think we are seeing Wall-e, but our English teacher won't tell us!!! RAWR!
Anywho, hope you enjoyed this blog! I love you!
~*Alex*~
Omg it's Christy here. I told Alex to save her work on here so I can edit it and then post it. She did so, and now I am editing it. I don't know why she titled this entry "Make it or Break it," but then again, I don't know why Alex does a lot of things.
In other news, the ALL CAPS album I ordered came in the mail recently (Friday I think), and I have been listening to it NON STOP. It is so good, and each song is made of awesome.
I should go now. But while I'm away, you are welcome to read my sister Alex's blog!

The Mystery of the Anonymous Commenter
Recently, my english teacher has been reading my blog. She has even put the web address on the board in class so that other students may read my blog as well. Since then, I have been getting anonymous comments. I believe these comments to be my english teacher, but she denies it. I do however, still think it is her. I blog today in an attempt to discover who this commenter is. You all now have a mission: Figure out if the anonymous commenter sounds like an english teacher, and comment "YES" if you think it is. Your help is greatly appreciated :).
Now back to the regularly scheduled blog.
Today was the National day of Prayer. The entirety of Middle Schoolers that attend my school went to enjoy our Prayer Breakfast that was set up by the wonderful student council. Most of the food was good, which is saying something because it was cafeteria food. THERE WERE WAFFLES!!!!!!! We prayed for our nation, our friends and family, our school, and other things. It was a fun way to miss 1st and 2nd period today.
Hey, BEDA BUDDIES, if you're reading this we all need to get on a skype call our something soon. Maddy, I don't think I've ever seen you on skype. Alex, I've talked to you before on skype. It would be fun to have all 3 of us on. So, let's figure out a time guys! What ever happened to Adam? Hmmm... OH! And Alex, I'M GLAD OPENING NIGHT WENT WELL!!! Maddy, I'M GLAD MOST (IF NOT ALL) OF YOUR RESEARCH PAPER IS DONE WITH!!! Those things are very annoying!
I think I started a blogging thing at school. My friend Sara got one yesterday, and my other friend Jessica just told me she got one. AWESOME!
Like the wonderful John Green says, BEST WISHES!

Blogging in a rush.
Like the title says, I am in a rush. I stopped to blog however, because an "anonymous" commenter said that I should keep blogging. I will keep blogging, but not every day. Unless someone (you know who you are) starts a petition like she said she would. Yes, someone wants to start a petition for me to blog every day for a certain amount of time that is unknown to me at this moment.
Right now I'm watching Pokemon, blogging, and cleaning my room. I'm about to go to my dad's house tonight because my mom has to have surgery tomorrow morning. I don't know what the surgery is for, she hasn't told me. Hopefully it goes well though!
By the way, thanks for everyone who commented on my last blog. 5 comments is the most I've ever had! When I started blogging, I didn't think anyone was going to read it. I didn't care if anyone did, I started this blog in an attempt to write more. I do appreciate readers of course!
Speaking of reading, I need to read my book report book for english. I'm still mad that it's a group project though, because I hate group projects. I don't like having to depend on other people for a grade. The book my group is reading doesn't look THAT bad, but I'm not extremely into sci-fi/fantasy novels.
Pokemon SQUEE break-OH MY GOSH, THE POKEMON ARE CHEERING FOR DAWN!!! IT IS SO ADORABLE! SQUEE!!!!
Sorry, about that. (Harry Potter references coming) Sometimes I have Hufflepuff moments where I just SQUEE! For that, I apologize. I'm not a Hufflepuff. I am a Ravenclaw where, "Wit beyond measure is a man's greatest treasure!" Hufflepuffs are loyal and hardworkers. If you know me, the "hard working" part isn't really "me" if you catch my drift.
Oh, and Sara, if you read this, I'm paying you back entirely in QUARTERS. Since I have a lot of them, and you like to pay for your lunch in dimes and nickels and quarters and whatever else you pay with.
Wow, this is the fastest I've typed a blog this long. I feel accomplished.
I leave and heave a sigh and say good bye - goodbyyyyyyeeeee!

Oh, and Sara, if you read this, I'm paying you back entirely in QUARTERS. Since I have a lot of them, and you like to pay for your lunch in dimes and nickels and quarters and whatever else you pay with.
Wow, this is the fastest I've typed a blog this long. I feel accomplished.
I leave and heave a sigh and say good bye - goodbyyyyyyeeeee!

The 5th Day of the Month of May.
I HAVE BLOGGED FOR 30 CONSECUTIVE DAYS! Therefore I have successfully completed what I originally set out to do. Blog for an entire MONTH (or 30 days) straight. True, true, I did cheat a little by having Kimmi blog for me once and Alex blog twice, but there were VERY GOOD reasons for that.
To start, my dad wouldn't let me on the computer because he was busy, so I tweeted asking anyone if they would blog for me that day. Kimmi stepped up to the challenge and entered my blogging world.
Fast forward a few weeks to when I had a history project due. You see, I procrastinate. This causes a slight problem when you have projects to do. Having a feeling that I would not be able to blog before midnight that day, I asked Alex to do it for me. She said yes, and proceeded to enter the wonderful world of Christy's blog. As soon as I finished my project the power proceeded to SHUT OFF UNTIL 2am. Thank goodness Alex managed to blog before then, or I would have been VERY upset.
Now, if you use those magic remotes you all have to fast forward a few more days, I asked Alex to blog for me once again. You see, I was about to go and golf with my dad while Alex stayed home with our step-mom. I had a feeling I wasn't going to have the time to blog, and/or be too tired to actually blog. So, I turned to Alex once more and summoned her to blog for me again. She willingly agreed and made her way into my blogging sphere.
Those are my three very valid reasons on why people had to blog for me during my 30 days. Do not fear readers! I will continue to blog! However, I will not be blogging EVERY day. I will try to blog as much as I can though. So for all of those who read this religiously (if any do), you still can. For those upset that I'm not going to be blogging as often, this should entertain you instead of reading my blogs.
I asked Joy what I should write about in my blog today, and she replied saying that I should write about her. Here it goes...Joy has recently had a "Christy Moment" as I like to call them. "What is 'them' and what are 'Christy Moments'?" You ask. Well the "them" is refering to the moment, and "Christy Moments" occur when you get hurt doing random things. I have had many of these moments in the past two years. One of which was breaking my ankle by falling (technically being pushed by Nicolas) down the stairs. Joy's "Christy Moment" was spraining her ankle and doing something to the ligament while running a warm up at track. She just got approved by the doctor to run again after a month. YAY JOY!
This concludes my 30 days of blogging. BEST WISHES EVERYONE!

May 4-At home instead of at school
I didn't get a lot of sleep last night because I was sick. So, I woke up this morning feeling sick and tired...again. Wow, my last three blogs (this makes four) have been me complaining about being sick. In fact, it will shock me if you keep reading my blogs after this. I'm such a complainer!
Because I'm sick, I'm staying home from school. I just woke up and thought I would type up this blog before I go back to sleep for probably the rest of the day. I don't know what I'm missing at school, nor do I know the homework. Only TWO teachers have the homework online. Why do they even have the online homework if no one uses it?! That's annoying.
I'm watching Never Back Down now, and it's actually not that bad of a movie. Besides all the fighting and everything, of course. For some reason I really want to watch Wall-E. I've never seen it, and I have heard mixed opinions about it. Hopefully it will come on later, but I'll probably be sleeping. Oh well, that's what recording is for!
I'm tired. I'll post this now, and then edit it later I think.
EDIT TIME!
After Never Back Down I fell asleep, and then I woke up. I then ate lunch, and sat down to watch a show my mom DVR'd for my viewing plessure. After that I went back to sleep. When I woke up, to my delight, there was a Dr. Who marathon on the Sci-fi channel. I watched that while I tried to do the homework that I knew about. Which was only for TWO classes. This is the one time I'm actually angry about not knowing the homework. I know that there is a quiz on Anne Frank tomorrow in English. I am not happy about that Mrs. Williams, not happy at all. After that, I danced and singed songs from rent. When you're home alone you can sing completely tone def and loud and with a stuffy nose so your voice sounds weird and NO ONE complains. It is fun. And then after that, I slept again. I awoke to my mother and Alex at home. Now I am blogging.
BYEEEEEEE!!!!

May 3.
I like musicals. Recently, I have been listening to a lot of Rent, and I love it. The music is so catchy. It's awesome, and I can play "Seasons of Love" on my ukulele.
Today, I watched two movies, and failed to do any homework. I watched 21 and Enchanted. They were both good. 21 was interesting, and Enchanted is rather funny.
OH MY GOSH! Today I had Pokemon Mac&Cheese! It was so cute, and also very good.
I should get started on my homework soon. I have to memorize a long Walt Whitman poem. I'm not good at memorizing things. I do, in fact, fail epically. I think I have to read Anne Frank, and start studying for a test on World War 1. Ugh.
All of these paragraphs are short. For that, I apologize. I have, once again, done nothing interesting today. I am still sick, and not happy about it. I CAN'T sleep.
Alex is listening to a plethora of Taylor Swift songs in her room. I wonder if she knows I can hear her. Hmm...
I should go like, do homework and stuff. BEST WISHES!

May 2.
I'm really tired, and sick. I have been sneezing ALL day. Also, my mom is making me stay away from her because she doesn't want to get sick. It's rather funny actually.
I have nothing interesting to blog about today because I didn't do ANYTHING. How much of my life is wasted because of days like today? Probably a significant amount.
I had a lot typed up, but then realized it was a pointless rant. Sorry that this blog is so short, I'm very tired. I cannot sleep however, due to my nose and its stuffy-ness. FUN.

May 1-Still blogging...
I'm somewhat running out of ideas for blogs, but then I remember that only about 5 people read this. That's okay though, I don't blog for readers-I blog to write.
Speaking of writing, today we did the "Anne Frank Experience" in English. It wasn't that bad. I stayed quiet the ENTIRE time. I also started writing a story, so I'll type that up another time. "Why can't you type the beginning to the story now?!" you ask. Well, the reason is that it is 11:17 pm, and I am very tired. Therefore, I am not willing to go out into the living room, which is a good 13 steps away, and get my notebook. I'll probably type it here on Monday, because Mondays always need some AWESOME stories in them. Am I right?
Other than that, I'm not quite sure what to write. When it's this late I lose my ability to focus.
My throat hurts! AHHHH SWINE FLU!!! Actually, I think my sister just gave me the common cold. THAT JERK. I can't sleep now because of it. I need my sleep, or I will be a very unhappy person. In fact, if I don't get sleep we could possibly enter another World War. BE ARMED AND READY!
On a completely different note, I learned the "Hoedown Throwdown" today. You know, that Miley Cyrus song with the weird dance moves. As much as I don't like her singing and acting, the song is still fun to dance with around friends. And alone in your room...wait, who does that?! Not me...seriously I don't.
This blog was actually a lot shorter, but I'm cheating and editing it at 12:06am. Does that count as cheating for BEDA/M? hmm...no idea.
Ugh, my nose is now stuffy. I hate that! SWINE FLU IS ATTACKING! By the way, has anyone else heard this, "It was once said that there would be a black president when pigs fly. 100 days in Obama's presidency, SWINE FLU!"?
I found that rather funny. You know what I don't find funny. BEING VERY TIRED, YET BEING AWAKE RIGHT NOW! That's horrible.
So. Tired. Bed. Now. BYE!

April 30-my life is a musical...sort of.
I have to write this REALLY fast, because my dad is coming to pick me up in about 5 minutes.
In English we're reading The Diary of Anne Frank, and tomorrow we are going to do this thing called, "The Anne Frank Experience!" It may sound interesting, but it's really not (Sorry if I offend you Mrs. Williams!). Bassically, we sit in the class room, in the dark, being totally silent. We get points deducted if we make a noise. My grade quite possibly is about to go down the drain. Maybe, I'll tape my mouth shut...that might work. Hmmm...Anyway, I'm rather curious to see how some people in my class will do. When it's over, I'll probably have a different perspective about Anne Frank, but I will still be utterly bored for the amount of time we spend being silent.
Today is the last official BEDA day, but I started late. Therefore, I am going to blog six days into May. YAY BLOGGING!
2 minutes left of writing this...what to write? WHAT TO WRITE?
OH! I know! Alright, today in Science, I had the closest experience to my life being a musical that I will possibly ever have. We weren't doing anything in that class today, so my friend Joy turned to me and told me she listened to Journey last night. She proceeded to ask me how the song Don't Stop Believin' (not a musical song, but this was close to a musical experience for me) started. I began to sing it, when my friend Nicolas, who also loves Journey, joined in. We were singing the song together, when another friend, Billy, also began to sing. Max, Sara, and then Joy all joined in shortly after. It was overall, pretty awesome. I wish stuff like that would happen more often.
Okay, I REALLY have to go now!

April 29.
Today, I went to school. I'm really getting tired of it. It's just the same every day. I'm the kind of person who likes change, and in facts NEEDS change. I can't do the SAME thing every day. It makes my life seem too redundant. So, the only interesting thing worth noting from today is that I totally got an A on my history test. The class is still rather boring though. Since I have nothing interesting to talk about, I will adress my friends now.
This is the part of the blog that is especially for Maddy, because she is stressed. DON'T BE STRESSED MADDY! Hope you get all of your homework done, and get your grades back to where you want them to be. Also, your voice better come back soon! Along with a pain-free back. Hope you liked that Maddy!
Alex (My BEDA BUDDY, Alex. Not my sister.) , I hope those 6th graders in your play are not as bad as you make them sound. And, you should do dance breaks in your blog more often. I loved that!
By the way, have any of you heard from Adam? What ever happened to him? hmm...
Okay, that was to my BEDA BUDDIES, now other people.
Dentists can sometimes reduce others to tears, don't worry it's not only you, LyTysha. Although, I don't usually cry, but I'm sure others do! Have fun getting your ice cream with Greg.
Last but not least, my sister Alex. I hope you get better, and stop infecting the house with your sick germs! Glad it's not the swine flu though. :)
DFTBA!

April 28-Best English Class EVER
I did not write that title JUST because my english teacher now has the link to my blog, and said she would read/look at it. Today was a really fun english class. We started off by discussing a "Font" party. I brought this up, and Mrs. Williams (the english teacher) said she would consider it. A Font party would be really awesome in my opinion. But, that was not the only good part about english today. Somehow, we also got talking about Twitter. The majority of people in my class think it is a stalking website. I think I convinced one person to get one, so it's a win! After our Twitter conversation, we got into a discussion on Religion. This took this most time out of our class, but was really quite fascinating. My friend Max, who's father is a pastor, knows so much about the Bible it's amazing. He's awesome.
Coincidentally, right now we are talking to Mr. Matthews (computer teacher) about Twitter. He has one, so he's cool! Alex also found a website where you can check your tweets, and tweet that isn't blocked! WOOHOO! TWITTER! So. Much. Twittering. I really need to write longer blogs. I like blogging because I like writing, but BEDA isn't leaving me a lot to talk about each day. When I said I like writing, I mean I LOVE writing. I'm not sure what to write now, so on that note I shall stop. DFTBA!

April 27-Blogging while half asleep.
It is only 8:54 pm, and I am sooooo (sorry for all those bothered by my excessive use of the letter 'O') tired! This could possibly be the result of staying up until 1:45 am talking to my cousin in England while working on the speech that I procrastinated on. It was a very good speech however, and the teacher agreed. Also, to put some nerdfighter awesomeness in my speech, I ended it by saying, "Best wishes!" Yes, I really did.
It is a habit for me, when I get home, to open up Facebook. I don't really USE Facebook, it's just a habit. If you have a Facebook then you know that some of the ads on there are pure gold. Like this gem that I happened to stumble across today:
"Can you resist the allure of Edward’s myriad charms—his ochre eyes and tousled hair, the cadence of his speech, his chiseled alabaster skin, and his gratuitous charm? Will you hunt surreptitiously and tolerate the ceaseless deluge in Forks to evade the sun and uphold the facade? Join Edward and Bella as you learn more than 600 vocabulary words to improve your score on the *SAT, ACT®, GED®, and SSAT® exams!"
This was advertising some book that is an ACTUAL guide to all of those tests, but guided by Edward and Bella. WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO?!
Speaking of Twilight, does anyone realize the SHRINES dedicated to it in various bookstores. I was at Barnes and Nobles today, when I saw my friend who I had just seen an hour ago. We were talking about this, and I showed him how the store was filled with the Twilight Saga, but there were only TWO copies of Harry Potter books. Since I like irony, I took one HP book and did this: http://twitpic.com/44ekz
Okay, I'm tired. I shall try to sleep now...or not.

April 26-Using this blog as a form of procrastination
Okay, I am a HUGE procrastinator. If you need proof I will tell you what I'm supposed to be doing right now, and what I am actually doing. Right now, I am supposed to be writing a speech on William Gladstone. However, I am writing this blog, surfing the web, reading through old tweets, and eating mac and cheese. I have not even OPENED Microsoft Word. Is this enough evidence for you? I would hope so.
Also, I am sorry for not blogging yesterday and instead having Alex do it for me. I was not in a blogging mood, and was about to go out golfing with my dad. So, I turned to Alex and asked, "Would you like to write my blog today? I just have no desire to." Being the AWESOME sister she is, she did blog for me. She also tried to get more people to follow me on twitter. I gained 1 follower from her attempt, and I'm actually pretty happy about that.
I am now listening to Hot and Cold by Katy Perry because Alex is playing it in her room rather loudly. Thought you all would like to know.
Okay, I need to get this speech done. BYEEEEE!!!!

It's Alex Again!!!
Hey everybody! Guess who it is...It's me, Christy's sister! Christy said that she is too lazy to blog today, so here I am! I'm such a good sister aren't I? hehe I wanted to bake a cake today, but I didn't because we didn't have the mix, eggs, milk, etc. I just got done stretching and now listening to Jason Mraz. :D For dinner we had chicken, mixed veggies, and baked potatoes! NOM NOM NOM! it was good!!! It's so pretty outside. I like it when the grass is green and the sky is really blue and there are really white puffy clouds. That is the perfect weather for me, oh and it has to be like in the 70's or 80's for degrees. Well, I'm going to go now. Have a lovely rest of the day! :D
<33,
Alex
P.S. you lost the game

April 24-my cat is adorable
I'm at my dad's house right now, and blogging from my iPod. My dad and step mom own a cat, and she is adorable. She is a totally cuddle machine lol. Alex just said, "Armpits is such a disgusting word!" I would have to agree with her there. I have no idea what to write about today, so this will probably be a very short blog. Um today I watched Goblet of Fire WHILE reading some of the british version of it. After that, I proceeded to go to my room and turn on the television. To my delight, Pokemon the Movie 2000 was on! I haven't seen that movie in forever, so I was extremely giddy. The pokemon are so adorable! Hmm....I think I'm done for today. DFTB DFTB DFTBA!!!!

April 23-From running to no tv
My friends and I recently (as in yesterday) decided to start running a mile everyday. Today, Jessica and I (Alex and Kaitlyn were finishing up a Latin test) were stretching before we ran, like you are supposed to do before running. The field is next to the swimming pool, where Christine and Natalee were conversing. Natalee asked if I was going to blog about my running experience, to which I replied, "If you would like, but you have to read it!" Natalee agreed, and Christine got excited when she heard I had a blog and asked to be mentioned. So, Christine has now been mentioned.
Now, about the actual running experience. Considering I had a few mini-muffins today, it was not one of my best runs. Luckily, the muffins decided my stomach was a nice place, and agreed to stay. We did not time ourselves, and we had fun. As we were getting water, Nathan came. We talked for awhile, and now he is sitting next to me in the computer lab upstairs. Taylor and Jessica are up here too, and I don't really know where Alex and Kaitlyn are. Possibly they are still taking the Latin test, I think I did pretty well on it. Wow, this went from running to Latin...that's lovely.
I should probably go find Alex, but me, being the good sister I am, do not feel like it.
Does anyone know that this week is "T.V. Turn Off Week," and is anyone actually participating? My friend Taylor had to design a shirt for it in Computer Graphics, and it looked AWESOME. However, it was not the one that is getting printed, and that is sad because it was amazing!
Okay, I am going on to random topics...I'm taking that as a sign that I should stop blogging for today.
Now, about the actual running experience. Considering I had a few mini-muffins today, it was not one of my best runs. Luckily, the muffins decided my stomach was a nice place, and agreed to stay.

April 22-Earth Day, a Birthday, and Peeps merge into one blog
As many know, today is Earth Day. However, not many people seem to be celebrating this day, my school included. I don't know why my school would not do anything for Earth Day. I mean, it is a very important day after all. The Earth is where we live, and I personally don't want to live on a giant ball of pollution. So, today my school did nothing, and I think that we should have at least planted a tree or something. Also, reducing is better than recycling. So, REDUCE your use of things!
Today is also my friend LyTysha's birthday. Remember, you're one year closer to your death! Wait, that's not a happy thought...um CONGRATS ON SURVIVING ANOTHER YEAR! I hope you have a great birthday! <3
I was talking to one of my BEDA BUDDIES, Alex, on Skype just before writing this. When she asked me, "What's up?" I responded, "Thinking about what to blog." She then said that I should blog about peeps. I found this rather funny because my facebook status a few days ago said, "How could you not like Peeps? They are marshmellowy goodness coated in sugary awesomeness!" This lead to 31 comments. "The Great Peep Debate," as I like to call it was under way. There was an ongoing argument about how disguisting some people thought peeps were, and how awesome others thought they were.
My friend Molly and I eventually decided that we were going to surround the peep-haters with tons of peeps so they have to EAT THERE WAY OUT! Where can we get that many peeps though? Hmmmmm........

April 20th-The, "I am Too Tired to Write a Real Blog," blog.
It's 9:05pm, and I am waaaaayyy more tired than I usually am. I'm going to bed pretty much right after I post this.
School sucks, I hate the vast majority of my classes. However, I do actually like Latin class now. I was in a great mood today, until I got to history. That is my least favorite class, and I hate everything about it. I don't even know why I dislike it so much, I just do. The teacher barely covers a topic and then gives us a test on it. LyTysha's help is possibly the only reason I'm getting by. So, thanks for your help!
Is there like a minimum of how much you need to write for BEDA blogs? Hmm...hopefully not. As I said in my previous blog, I'm not good at writing lengthy blogs. My days aren't THAT interesting.
One of my BEDA BUDDIES, Maddy, is going a week without the going on the internet. Besides reading a few blogs, and blogging herself, and that is a pretty awesome thing to do. I don't think I could go a week without twitter or youtube or myleaky. I could however, go without facebook. I don't know, I just don't care for facebook that much. I mean, it is a good way to stay intouch with people, but I only talk to about 5 people on there. Anyway, I was talking to another one of my BEDA BUDDIES, Alex, and she's pretty awesome. I'm jealous of here because she's going to leakycon in May! Grrr...
Okay, I'm super tired. I will be going to bed now. Farewell.

April 19-Lost Marathon
I have a friend at school who is very obsessed with Lost. I've seen 1 episode, and I liked it, but I never watched it again. So, after her constantly telling me how awesome this show was I dedcided to watch it. I'm watching the fifth episode of the first season. It is rather creepy, but at the same time it is made of awesome.
On another note, for those who read my blog and have no idea what BEDA BUDDIES are, I will tell you. BEDA is Blog Every Day April, a project started by author Maureen Johnson. She decided to pair other people who were doing the project up with people who they are similar to and share similar intrests with. These people are called BEDA BUDDIES. Now that that is clarified, you may now continue reading the rest of the blog.
I have to do a history project on William Gladstone, and I'm not to happy about it. I hate projects, and I don't understand the point of them besides helping you learn about the person. I never learn about the person my project is on, I just become very annoyed with them.
Alright, back to Lost. This show is amazing. Charlie (the drug addicted british rocker) is totally my favorite. And yes, I know he dies. I love him! And the Korean dude, yeah, I hate him. And right now, Jack (the doctor) is trapped in a cave, and Charlie is trying to save him. Charlie just saved Jack. YAY! If you couldn't already tell, I shall once again repeat that Charlie is indeed my favorite.
I get to choose my electives for next year, but there aren't a lot of choices. Alex has already decided on taking Digital Media, a class which my mom really wants me to take. However, I'm really set on taking Creative Writing, because I really love to write, and English is my favorite subject. I'm trying to convince my mom to let me take that, so we'll see how that goes.
Well, I don't really know what else to write, so that's it I guess.

April 18-BEDA BUDDIES Unveiled!
It is 4:30 in the morning, and some of you are asking yourselves, "Why is she always up all night?" To which I respond, "I actually went to bed around 7pm, and got my required minimum of 8 hours sleep before waking up."
When I woke up, I just had to find out who my BEDA BUDDIES were. They are Maddy, Alex (not my sister Alex, this is a different one), and Adam. I've seen all their profiles on the ning, and have read Alex's blog, along with Maddy's. I've read what Adam wrote about himself on the BEDA BUDDIES group, and it seems like we all fit together PERFECTLY! Hopefully we will all be friends with each other, which I don't think will be a problem considering how alike we all are.
I'm not really good at typing lengthy blog posts, because I usually run out of things to say. It's easier to run out of things to say when its only 4:35am, and the actual "day" part of the day hasn't happened yet. I figured I should type this now, because I don't know what I'm doing today, and I could end up being busy enough to miss a day. I WILL NOT LET THAT HAPPEN! I did start late, but I'm making up for it by running over into May. And, I don't really put my blogs on the ning, because I'm too lazy to copy and paste. However, now with my BEDA BUDDIES, I will post on the ning so it's easier for them to read my blog.
Have you ever been the only one awake in your house while everything is quiet because everyone is sleeping, and then feel like every noise you make is exceptionally loud? Tis' a rather strange feeling. I feel like my mom is going to wake up and start yelling at me for being awake.
On that note, I think I shall end here.

April 17
I'm siting in the library right now, and we're supposed to be researching something. I, being the good student I am, am blogging. We finished taking our IOWAs (owls as I prefer to call them) which was good, and my class finished them early so we had an hour of free time. My friend Kaitlyn and I listened to my iPod, after Max decided to give it back. He's somewhat obsessed with Tap Tap Revenge 2. This week actually went by pretty fast, but it has totally sucked. I have to choose my high school electives for next year, and I have now idea what to pick! It's more stressful than fun. LOL, the teacher just yelled at some kids for not doing research, so I should stop blogging now. BYE!
Also, I'm really looking forward for BEDA Buddies!

April 16-broccoli and grammar don't mix...
My friends Jessica (who just grammar checked me) and Natalee wanted to be mentioned in my blog...now they are. We have newspaper together, and I am always grammar checking them. That is why Jessica wanted me to write that she corrected my grammar. I would like to clarify that situation. I wrote that first sentence in class, because Jessica wanted to be in my blog. After I wrote, "My friend Jessica," Natalee stated that she also would like to be in my blog. So, I added "and Natalee," after, "My friend Jessica." I knew right away that friend was supposed to be friends, but I couldn't correct it in time. Jessica was already too excited about finding a mistake, that she could have wet her pants. So, there I was left to explain myself about that "mistake," but they (especially Jessica) would not hear any of it. I found that story interesting, and I hope you did as well.
At this moment, I am talking to my friend Lytysha, and entertaining her while she is stuck in her 3 hour class. When I asked her what I should blog about today, she replied, "Broccoli." I don't know why she wanted me to blog about broccoli, and she doesn't either. So without further ado, here is short story about broccoli:
When I was little (around 5-7) I was in love with broccoli. It was in fact, my very favorite vegetable. I ate it at least every week, and was a very happy child when I feasted on my broccoli, especially when it had cheese on it. However, one day while at my dad's house, something went wrong between me and the broccoli. I ate the broccoli with cheese, and all was well. That is, it was well until we started to drive back to my mom's house. As we were driving I alerted my dad that I did not feel well. While I was saying, "I think I'm going to throw up," the cheese-covered broccoli decided it didn't want to be introduced, so it just decided to make a reapperance before I could finish my statement. Since I was a small and emotional child, I apologized and then burst into tears about throwing up in my dad's car. I don't know which is worse, the actual puke in the car, or a child crying/screaming because of the puke in said car. This was then end of my broccoli eating days.
Well, there. Now there are TWO stories. HA!

April 15.
Right now I am currently sitting in the computer lab upstairs at school. I am somewhat surprised that this isn't blocked. I'm here with my friend Kaitlyn, and when I asked her what I should write about she replied, "Me!" I'm not sure if I should....hmmm... Yeah, I'll save that for another time. I'm being a dork and listening to the pokemon theme song on my ipod. Kaitlyn isn't happy about this. YOU TEACH ME AND I'LL TEACH YOU, POKEMON!!! I'm dancing to it....I'M A NERD! Alex and my other friends Taylor and Jackie just walked in. I like the white (not to be racist) tic-tacs the best. Okay, because we all are nerds (by all I mean my friends and I) we are talking about pokemon. We all like Togepi that egg one. Yeah, it's adorable! I'm listening to Julia Nunes now. I realize how random this entire blog is, but that's okay. It's my blog, and I am a very random person. Oh! Here comes Nicolas! wow! this is nerdtastic fun! YAY NERDS! OKAY BYE!!! (taylor says bye too)

April 14. A day in the life....
It is 12:09am as I'm writing this, and I am unable to sleep. I was starting to get to bed earlier,and then came spring break. Maybe I'll go all night and sleep during math because I learned pre-algebra last year. I don't want to go to school in less then eight hours grr! I'm probably going to save this so far and blog throughout the day. Alright I'll finish this later....
Its now 1:40am, I'm still awake, and my mom is snoring loudly. Alex is laughing a lot, because she is on a skype call. I am very bored, and time is moving slowly.
2:14am-I'm still wide awake and just briefly joined alex's skype call. We talked about pokemon at two in the morning. What could be more nerdtastic?!
2:26-I'm craving some orange juice, but alas, the refridgerator is not providing me with any!
3:03-I'm pretty sure my clock's broken, because 3:00 seems like forever ago. Miley Cyrus is stuck in my head. IT'S THE CLIMB!!!!!!
I might actually fall asleep soon.
Scratch that last statement, it's 3:18 and I'm not tired.
It's 3:55, and school starts in about 4 hours.
My last night memory is looking at the clock around 4:40ish. I woke up at 6:51 and have pancakes for breakfast, and finish them at 7:01.
7:29am-the road is empty besides the car I'm in, and another about a mile ahead
7:43-7:55-My friend Kathaleen and I discuss our pokemon platinum games.
8:00- Newspaper (my first class) starts, I hate macs
8:47-on my way to Bible class I make awkward eye contact with some random girl on a bike
9:00-The teacher moves Nathan and I because we are talking about more interesting things than the football movie that we are supposed to watch.
9:10-The mascot was just tackled in the movie.....
9:11-"I call the plays with my facial expressions." -movie quote
9:15-Nicolas isn't happy hes's not mentioned yet, so here he is.
10:23-The head of the computer department staff at school just walked by in CROCS! loser.
11:20-disscussing polynomials in math. probably won't get to sleep in this class :'(
12:03-"I know I'm an easy teacher, and ya'll can just cruise through my class..." hopefully my science teacher meant this as a joke.
12:39-Nathan wants me to tell Alex that he hopes her root canal feels better. He also would like to be mentioned in my blog.
12:40-lunch is over, and I had caffiene. I can now make it through the next three classes.
1:30-My latin teacher is wearing suspenders. They're kinda awesome.
1:55-got my research paper back. 98.5%!!!!
2:35-teacher said repeatedly, "7/17" and I instantly thought of Harry Potter....wow
2:50-Just made a Harry Potter reference in history.
3:00-School day ends, but I'm stuck at school until 4:30, when my mom picks me up.
3:30-english teacher and I discuss the Office and british candy.
3:56-I stop taking notes because I don't want to anymore. One last one-my friend Kaitlyn looks like little red riding hood.
That was my day so far. It's not very interesting, but it was fun to write down all the stuff!

April 13
I'm watching Maureen Johnson on blogtv right now, and she is hysterical! She's doing this match-making thing and the majority of the people in the chat room there like harry potter. haha. Speaking of which, there is a new HBP trailer coming out on THURSDAY! So, I will be waiting for that eagerly.
Some people I know IRL are starting to get twitters, so that is really awesome! I love twitter!I'm not sure many people read this, so I'll tweet the link and see who reads it.
Today was another day in which Alex and I stayed inside and chilled. I played my guitar and ukulele while she did whatever she does. I also finished re-reading Paper Towns, and it is totally better the second time.
I don't really want to go back to school tomorrow, because this year hasn't really been good at all. Most of the teachers don't seem to like me....hmmm. Anyway, there is always a lot of drama, it seems like you can't go a day without confronting something dramatic. It annoys me extremely. It's good that this year is almost over though, and I am very happy about it. Although a lot of people are going to a different high school, these people aren't really my friends. I'm staying at my school though, and I'm not sure if I want to or not.

April 12.
Alright, I haven no idea what to write, and my mom said I have to go to bed in like 10 minutes.
I had a lovely easter, and Church was awesome, as always. Also, alex and I had an easter egg hunt at our dad's house. she found more eggs, but i got all the good stuff. HA! So, after that, we went home to our mom's house, where we had a few more treats. So, I've had a good easter today, always nice.
Tomorrow is the last day of spring break for me :'(. I think tomorrow will go by fast, but I want it to go by slowly. I have to read at least 2 books this week to stay on track, so I want this week to also go by slowly.
I don't think there is anything else to say really. Thanks Kimmi, for writing my blog yesterday, it was lovely.
For now, words escape me, so I shall stop writing here.

hiHIhi!
Hi.
I'm not Christy, but I'm writing a blog for her anyways. Even though I've not talked to her SUPERdooper much, I think she's an amazingg lovely brilliant person.
:D
I'm Kimmi and tomorrow is Easter!
YAY!
It's always hard to find the right outfit for Easter, don't you think?
It has to be springy but it can't be too summery for hot days, but it can't be like winter cold days.
Yeah. It's just hard.
There's this super cute game I'm playing even though I should be doing other things called Elephants and I always get hit with the arrows and lose. :(
I'm trying to think of interesting things to talk about but I'm not very good at being interesting.
For the last couple days I've been playing a lot of animal crossing city folk and it's amazing!
I paid off my debt and now I have a really nice rad house, and it got the model room at the HRA.
Anddd my best friend in town is Walker, he's really nice and gave me a present randomly.
One of my favourite things to do on that game is to complain about my neighbors. It sounds mean, but nothing's happened so far, so I'm keeping on doing it! ^.^
What'shername at Shampoodle is really annoying cause she never cuts my hair right! >:(
Oh! That reminds me, I should get on OmgPop again soon, to play Letterblox! LOVE. THAT. GAME.
As you can tell I'm failing at blogging, it took my how long just to write this short entry, most of which is about a video game.
I apologize.
KBAI.
<3
ohyeah. i just realized this was for BEDA.
x_x
hahahaha. should've looked into things before i commited.
i don't like BEDA or VEDA personally. but it was to help out a friend so i guess i don't care.

April 10th, BEDA 5
Today I saw the hannah montana movie. I don't really like Miley Cyrus as a singer/actress, but I do have respect for her. Everyone knows that celebrities face a lot, and are under constant watch. It's hard for some of them. I have respect for most of them that are able to stay strong throughout the entirety of their careers. Anyway, this is going to be short because I'm at a friends house and shouldn't be on the computer. BYE!

April 9, BEDA 4
One of my favorite things about spring break is having no homework, which means more time to read. I like reading, and am trying to read a lot more this year. I've read I think 15 books, which is a book a week. If I stay on track I should read 52 books this year! That's exciting. I'm re-reading Paper Towns by John Green because he's awesome and the book is awesome.
Later today, Alex and I are going golfing with our dad. We haven't gone golfing for like a month, so this will be nice. Golf is really relaxing too, which is probably why all the elderly folk like it. Haha.
Also, I learned how to play All My Loving by The Beatles on my Ukulele, which is awesome.
I'm trying to think of something else to add to this blog, but words escape me. I don't really do interesting things over breaks from school, and this is no exception. I just like to lay (or lie, gosh that bothers me) around the house and read. I'm a nerd.

April 8th, BEDA 3
Okay, there is really no topic for this blog at the moment. I have done nothing interesting or new today. I have just been at home, playing my guitar and ukulele. That has mainly been my day. I watched some of Bambi with Alex today (I never really liked that movie), and then went to search for my missing iPod. I don't know where it is, and I really want to find it so I don't have to actually watch/listen to the hannah montana movie (that movie doesn't deserve to be capitalized or italized).
Yeah, I wrote an entire paragraph about something, and then decided it was pointless. I went to see Monsters vs. Aliens, and it was actually good. That somewhat schocked me, because it didn't look all that great. I was satisfied.
99 days until Half-Blood Prince comes out! The last time there was 99 days, the pushed back the release date! It's almost (not really) here!

April 7th, BEDA post 2
Spring Break has been pretty boring so far, but it's nice to sleep in and not have to go to school this week. I have no idea how many days of school are left, and I really hope there is not a lot. I'm getting really sick of seeing some of the people at my school five days a week.
Also, cheerleaders like to think it's cool to wear the same hair style, dye their hair the same color, have the EXACT same shoes, and all have the same purses. This greatly irks me, what ever happened to the concept of being unique? Do they think they are being unique by wearing the SAME thing? They aren't. As you can tell, I don't like the cheerleaders at my school.
So, right now I'm reading a book called The 13 1/2 Lives of Captian Bluebear, and it is really quite fascinating. It has all of these weird creatures that the author came up with and is actually really funny. I'm only on his 7th life though, so I have a lot more reading to do.
I have also taken to the hatred of daytime television. There is literally NOTHING on! So, on that note, I shall go.

First official BEDA blog (for me).
Yeah, I forgot my password to this and have been to lazy to go through the process of reseting it. However, I decided I should reset it now. The popular author Maureen Johnson has started this event called "Blog Every Day April" I want to do this, and am going to start 6 days late. Yay me? I will blog until the Cinco de Mayo to make up for the first six days of April. Woohoo blogs.
Look forward to it, and consider this short one BEDA post #1.
