Regatta Stats Update October 27, 2008

So, I saw Eagle Eye with Kristin and Brenden on Saturday, and it was actually fairly good!

Did you all hear about how they are recalling this one kind of chocolate pirate coin candy ’cause it has poison or something in it…? Good thing I don’t eat any chocolate coins…

And ummmmmm…

OOOHHH!!!

2 weeks ago at our first regatta my novice 8 boat took first, and at yesterday’s regatta we took second, but only by 4 seconds!!!! I think that means we aren’t bad!

But I’m so ready to kill some people on my boat because they don’t understand how to keep the friggin’ boat set (level and not tip-y)!!!!!!

Aye aye aye….

And we only didn’t get first and have at least an extra four seconds because this one girl behind me, we’ll call her L, caught 4 or so crabs (where your oar gets caught in the water and swings foreward putting you on your back semi-parallel to the boat if it’s a bad one) and kept freaking complainging about how her hands hurt and s**t. I was so close to smacking her because it’s like, no duh your handshurt – so do the rest of ours, now shut your trap and ROW!!!

Eck.

Well, I guess that’s about it…except I have another regatta on Sunday…the bus taking us to the regatta that is 4 or so hours away is leaving the school at 4am….I’m riding that bus… Oh well.

LUV U ALL!

Thank God for shortened words, like ‘you’ to ‘u’ when you finish a post – talk about making life easier!

P.S. This regatta was a halloween regatta so we got to dress up our boats to a central theme if we wanted. My boat chose pirates – we all wore bandanas and I did everyones’ makeup so that it looked like scars or bruises; it looked so real! Someone from another team actually asked if my face was ok because of the bruise I gave myself!!! It was insanely fun and I was actually good at it! Well, go firgure, ’cause applying makeup to others (and yourself) in any way, especially a different and obvious way, is art – and we all know I love and rock at art…

P.P.S. Maggie, Monday sounds good, except that my mom probably won’t let me see the Molly movie… >.< I’ll let you know when she gives me an answer for sure…

Best Smoothie Ever October 22, 2008

1 cup of papaya juice + 10 frozen strawberries + 1 banana = the greatest fruit smoothie ever.

Yea, short post I know, but not much more to write…that and I have 3 essays to do (one of which has to be in Japanese), chemistry homework, and an ABC book project to complete – all by tomorrow – so I have to get off…

The swirly name things are really beginning to get popular – I’ve done 7 names so far, and have 4 more people in line, at least!

^_^

It’s gonna be a loooonnnggg night, what with homework and orders for seizure-sheets (swirly papers) coming in like rapid fire….

On another random note: just a little tid-bit to add to the abnormalty of my family is that you know something has gone wrong (or right…?) when a mother bribes her children with books – and it works. (Mom just walked in with Inkdeath in an attempt to get Phoebe to clean her room…I’m so jealous, ’cause I wanted to read that book, too… Never fear! It shall be mine soon enough! … To read, at least!!! … Yea!!! …)

And what’s up with this?!

I make a new post yesterday and I have no new comments today?!

Usually I have one a day, at least…

*Sad*

Oh well, I know I’m not consistent enough with my posts to make you all want to read every day…

*Sniff*

Book List of the moment:

1) Identicle : Ellen Hopkins

2) 13 Reasons Why : Don’t remember…

3) Year of the Griffin : Dianna Wynn Jones <-(First name might be spelled wrong…)

I don’t remember the rest but I have a nice big stack in my room…

I’ll make a proper list of books that all of you who like to read (and even those who don’t enjoy it) must look into.

All in due time, my friends…

P.S. Turns out the regatta is Sunday, so let the fighting over me and my Saturday begin!!! (At least I hope I can see people Saturday…depends on my Mother… >.<)

Grounded October 21, 2008

Grounded…again…

From phone and going anywhere until Friday…

Not my fault! Ish!

>.< I’m too lazy to go into detail…

Hehe…short post…

I WANNA CALL KRISTIN AND LOUIS AND DEREK AND JAKE AND BRENDEN AND ANNIE AND MAGGIE AND ACE AND ALL MY OTHER PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:(

I hate my mom.

It’s not fair that she takes away my phone privileges… I need that freedom at the least!

I also did this post to allow a new place for comments to build up…

xD

I have to go to a regatta (crew race) Saturday, JEWliet, so no, Saturday is no good.

*Uber sadness…*

I loves you all! And misses you all loadsez! (loads)

School sucks, but at least I am becoming famous again with my swirls (haha to all of you who have seen them) because I am now not only doing (drawing on!!!! not doing, as some of your minds would like to fantasize) peoples’ hands in sharpie, but also writing their names in bubble letters and then filling in the whole page (including the cool shadowed letters) with swirls.

I could charge if I wanted to, and I am in fact going to probably start a freakin’ website to sell the name things – 10 bucks a piece! I mean, it wastes (kind of a waste, at least) my gel pens and sharpies, and it takes about 2 hours to complete a page. I get about 1 or 2 pages done a day, though, thanks to school…

Oh-em-gee! The school is good for something! Doing random swirls that make people ask if I’m on drugs!!!

Which I’m not.

Sheesh.

I hope to get some pics of my artwork up on my blog, too, so stay tuned! (Like you would have anyway! *Suspicious look…*)

Anyway, I love you all and miss you more than when I wrote this previously!!!!!

Abnormal October 7, 2008

This is short, but I simply had to put in writing how strange my family can be.

I blame my mother.

Here are the facts stating that she obviously doesn’t know how to be a good parent:

1) At night she tells us to “put the books away before I take them!!!”

~ Who tells their kids to stop reading?! Most parents can’t get their kids to read a book a month, and here she is telling us to STOP READING?! Odd.

2) During the day Chris and I are told to “stop practicing guitar!”

~ …..? So…you don’t want us to practice…? You don’t want us to get better and entertain ourselves in a productive way, such as practicing our music…..? Erm…OK?

3) She tells us to “stop drinking so much water.”

~ Dare I comment…? The problem in America right now, believe it or not, is DEHYDRATION, yet she tells us that she’s sick of us always getting up to get more water…. … … … …???????????? Erm…..

Ok, so that last one she probably meant more along the lines of stop getting up so much from the table to get the water, but still! She’s telling us to get less water.

So, as you can clearly see from all of these examples: my family is WIERD!

Luckily I turned out perfectly normal, for I drink the right amound of water, only practice my guitar the right amount of time, and… well, I suppose I do read late into the night… but that’s not bad!

Ish!

Hehe…

NORMAL!

Pah!

I lost the game!

Shake Him By the Face-Mask!!! October 7, 2008

The original beginning half of this blog entry has been deleted due to my parental figure, “mom.” who was pissed at me for defiling her on the internet, and gave me a lovely long speach on how even though the beginning half is now erased, it will always reamin somewhere. Yea, I know that.

And now I’m not allowed to rant at anyone on this blog, nor am I allowed to use real names of my siblings or anything, because someone might track me down and find where I live through little hints on this blog.

I’m also not allowed to curse anymore on here…

Um, no, they won’t.

Any tracking methods would get me if they wanted no matter how much or little I write on here, so saying little things like what I did today will not help or hinder stalkers or whatever. I am plenty discreet on here!!

She is now going to get one of her friends who is a computer geek to read all my posts and see how much info on me they can come up with that is true.

Oh my gosh! I put that I’m a vegetarian! I bet that’ll lead the people right to me, cause I’m, like, the only vegetarian in the world!!!!!

Yea right…

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My little brother Luke is currently on a football team. This year he is doing tackle football, whereas last year he only did flag football, so this has been a big jump.

Luke isn’t a really violent kid, nor does he complain a lot. Sure he does the normal, “but I have 2 more minutes on the X-Box!!!!” complaining thing, but he has a good understanding of what’s important and what’s not. Therefor, when he tells my mom to do something, like, oh say…email the coach so that the coach can speak to a little boy on Luke’s team named Alex who has been calling Luke gay and a dick… (*hint hint*) then my mom knows it’s real and serious, because Luke doesn’t make those types of things up.

So when Luke came to her and said this, she said she would, but then…forgot.

Who woulda guessed it?!?!?!?!

(She’s forgetful, by the way…in case you hadn’t caught on…)

So here’s how I was informed the football game went last night:

Luke was being teased by Alex, again, and finally got fed up with it. (Luke, for the record, also rarely handles things violently.) Luke proceeded to grab the front of Alex’s face mask (they were both not being played at the moment, so this wasn’t happening directly on the field, but more on the sidelines) and push him backwards hard enough to throw him off balance, but not to knock him over (because Luke knows how far he can and can’t go, in terms of what will get him punished and such).

And Luke grabbed, Alex’s face-mask, knocked him backwards a bit, and ran off the field and into the bleachers to sit with my mom and Dave.

On his way up he yelled to Alex, “well why don’t you just GO TO HELL?!”

I would have PAID to see the looks on the other parents faces. I heard it was priceless.

Oh, another thing about Luke: When he’s mad, he curses. Quite a bit, actually…

He also said, “Alex is such a BITCH!” to my mom when he was calming down on the bleachers a few minutes down.

My mom said a dad of another player had been coming over to help, it looked like, and when Luke semi-screamed “bitch,” the dad turned around and sat back with his family!

Hahahaha…

Props to Luke for style!!!

Just a little note to add: Luke truly cares about people.

Out of all my siblings, Luke and I, I think, deep down but still somewhere near the surface, are the most alike. We tend to think and react in about the same kind of way, so I’m closer to him in many ways, although it may not necessarily appear as such from an outside perspective, because Luke isn’t just all, “GIMME A HUG!!” and such.

Anyway.

Because of our connection, I stand up more for Luke, and I understand him more than my mom and other siblings (and that is not an exaggeration – I DO know him at least as well as my mom, if not better). For this reason, instead of being like normal big sister, I’m very proud that Luke handled himself and his problems in a way that got his point across yet didn’t inflict harm upon someone. He is very independent and I don’t blame him for giving that kid what he had coming to him.

I probably don’t sound like the smartest sister or the best semi-role model right now, but I don’t care.

Honesty is my policy! (For this story at least…)

*Sigh* Sometimes I really love my little brother…

And that’s my story of right now!
