so yes.. i was not at school today.
and it sounds like i missed out on something (um hello bathroom-set-on-fire).
and i really missed A. i really like his hugs and i needed one all day.
oh yes, i went to the doctor to see what the heck i'm sick with. so they swabbed my throat and pricked my finger.
because, you know, that stuff helps detect pneumonia or swine flu or whatever. NOT.
i just have a "virus", which i doubt. i just read an article on how a person with swine flu is contagious until they stop coughing. umm yes. mattyboo was coughing all week.
so i am not going to school tomorrow, but will be there (hopefully?) on wednesday.
yay.
well, the big thing today (other than going to the doctor) is that i caught up on about 5 weeks worth of Gossip Girl right before the new season started.
so i am completely ready for the THIRD SEASON. :D
oh btdubs, i'm searching for a good halloween costume. my current options are (but are not limited to):
- Star Trek medic
- someone being attacked by birds, from The Birds
- the pink power ranger
- Blair Waldorf
- Judy Jetson
- Sailor Mars
- Little Miss Muffet
- Red Riding Hood
i am really liking the Red Riding Hood one because it's a cute costume and i could carry my school books around in a picnic basket.

poop. D:
i was going to get my homework done today, amongst other things.
but i could not.
why?
for i am sick. i am fairly certain i have pneumonia.
again.
i will not be at school on monday and i will be going to the doctor.
peace out, homes.
but i could not.

i will not be at school on monday and i will be going to the doctor.
peace out, homes.
whoaa
dude, seriously. why does it take me forever to get around to updating this thing?
well, on friday matt came home with me before the gibbons vs. ravenscroft game. we looked at shoes online for a while and left to go pick celia up.
we got to the game, made our way into the student section and then about 20 minutes later, the rest of our friends joined us. and we watched the game and talked and generally had a good time.
oh and i acted kinda like a slut. or slutty as compared to my normal, modest self.
which, annie, is surprisingly modest.
and i guess you could say i bonded with anthony. but not physically, you perv.
then celia and i went back to my house, and ate tacos and stuff at like midnight and talked until 1. we slept super late, ate cereal for lunch, and watched 15 episodes of Sailor Moon, 1 episode of House, and an episode of Lizzie McGuire.
after we took her home, mom and i went to PR (The Player's Retreat. It's in Raleigh. Go there next time there is a State game or a Canes game. I swear to God, it's great.) and I had some potato skins in leu of my normal pete burger. after that fun meal we went and saw 500 Days of Summer at the Rialto starring Zooey Deschanel.
Zooey Deschanel is too pretty for words and when i grow up to be rich, i am going to buy her clothes from her and have some surgery to look like her. well, not really, but she is really freaking pretty. and talented.
i think i might get colored contacts.
so while i have not even touched my backpack since i got home from school on friday (literally), i feel that this weekend has been super successful. i spent time with friends, which reinforced that i have friends and a semblance of a social life, i caught up on my Sailor Moon (though not my Gossip Girl), i saw a movie, and i got a boyfriend.
;D
happy of the day: i got both extra credit questions on my english vocab quiz right. they were "how many planes were used in the attacks on 9/11?" and "who was the mayor of new york on 9/11?"
p.s. the answers are 4 and Rudy Giuliani.

i think it's working.
nothing new to report, other than i had a physical and went to church.
the physical went well and i got the internasal flu mist vaccine. it was very nice and non-stressful, unlike shots.
or needles in general.
church was decent. Trey helped me away from The Gal and had me sit next to kelly during his presentation on what christian music is and how there is no such thing as "christian" music, only music with christian allusions and how the artist or the album shouldn't be judged on the artist's actions on stage or on the lyrics, but on the content of the songs. and that is what "christian music" is. i probably just massacred his whole presentation, but i wasn't paying attention for a great deal of it.
oh. yes. well.
i think the blog is working.
"umm you basically changed the whole point of this blog..." you might say.
well, not entirely. becoming positive is a process.
why do i think it's working?
on the way to church my mom was all,
"i really like how positive you're being."
i credit it to a combination of the blog and church.
woo.

daaang!
wow. long time, no post.
well, it's tuesday. cool.
last week was pretty boring. nothing much happened until friday.
on friday, meghan took me to the landmark aviation building for my FLIGHT TO BURMUDA!!! we got there early because everyone kept telling us there was a ton of traffic. but there wasn't so we went to briar creek for a few minutes.
when our (by "our," i mean "mine") plane finally arrived, i got my stuff on, and gave K the cookies i bought at southern seasons. it was great. Dad, K, and k were there, along with K's parents, The Ps, Thomas, Amy, Kay and Sherman.
i got to ride in the jump seat for landing in Burmuda with the pilots. well, they weren't in the jump seat, but the jump seat is in the cockpit. IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!! the moon was reflecting off the water and it was gorgeous. Burmuda is so tiny! you could see it all from 500 feet.
we got to the house around 10 pm. we had eaten dinner on the plane (pork tenderloin and veggies. yum!) so we kinda explored around. i saw the whale bones in person for the first time with the moon reflecting off of them. they are so white! and huge! and there are so many of them! i also saw the fort, and Mrs. P showed me the puzzle cabinet and we started working on this puzzle called, "The Christening."
on saturday, we woke up early and had breakfast. Dad, K, k, and i took two wave runners out around 11 to sand dollar beach and found some really cool sand dollars. then we rode them around the bay for a little while. we went back for lunch around 12:45 or so.
after lunch, we snorkled around the dock and scouted out some more bones to dig up. (the main purpose of the trip was to dig up the whale.) after we found some and marked them, we went up to the pool and splashed around, then eventually headed down to the beach and played in the ocean.
for dinner, dad, K, k, and i were alone as everyone else had romantic dinners with their significant others planned. we had some delish steak and potatoes. afterwards, we watched The Incredibles. well, dad and k played and watched, and K and i puzzled.
on sunday, we woke up and got ready for a cruise on Mr. P's big boat. everyone came (except sherman because he doesn't like water), including the man who produced all the old cartoons, like Rudolph and such. we went out to the other side of the island to this steamboat shipwreck and anchored. all of us (except Mr. P) snorkled around for about an hour or so. we had a delish lunch while we started our cruise around the island. Burmuda is so pretty! i have to live there someday.
after we docked, dad and i broke out the third lungs and regulators and started to dig up the bones. i found a great rib and what i'm calling the scapula. we also found three or four other ribs. one broke, so i took a fragment of that home with me. it's currently on my desk. :D
that night, everyone, including the pilots and the flight attendant, came to the house for a lobster dinner. it was AMAZING. the Burmuda lobster season started on september 1st, so this was the first time this year than any of us have had lobster. it was incredible. we all sat around and talked, and watched the moon come up. pure magic.
oh, and we finished the puzzle.
on monday, dad, K, k, and i went out on the beach and built this epic sand castle and played in the waves. seriously, the castle was amazing. it had this huge moat, two tunnels, and some trees. i made this great sea wall from sand towers, seaweed, and a 2x4 that K found in a cave.
after lunch, which consisted of fantastic tomato soup and sandwiches with melted cheese, tomatos, and bacon, we moved some of the bones that we had under the dock into a cave. the dock is right under a cliff, and there was no way we could carry all those bones up and store them before we had to pack.
for take off, i rode in the jump seat again. this time it wasn't as cool because i couldn't see anything except sky.
k and i watched College Road Trip on the flight. it was surprisingly amusing.
i rode in the jump seat for landing at RDU. it was kinda scary because it was raining and the captains kept saying, "you can't see crap!"
and that was the end of my adventure.
oh yes. mom met K for the first time when she was picking me up. it wasn't as awkward as i thought i was going to be.
today (tuesday) was picture day. i'm fairly certain i look like poop, but people kept telling me i looked ok. sure. whatever.
our first field hockey practice was after school, which ROCKED. all the girls are pretty cool and i think we'll have a great team/club.
that's pretty much it...
OH YES. matt has the swine!! so i'm making him a care package.
so pray for his recovery or something like that.
yep.

blehh
today was ok.
i got to bed pretty early last night, so i rewarded my efforts with about 30 extra minutes of sleep. tomorrow i will only go 15 minutes, if any.
english was fun. we talked about stuff and our teacher declared our book absolutely boring.
dance. oh my goodness. while i love dance and dancing and the teacher, the room is crowded. i am usually in the back, so i have to restrict my movements to avoid crashing. do you know how hard that is? take a really difficult dance that makes you sweat a lot (yea. fun.) and then do the sissy version of it while trying to do the regular. it's hard.
and i sweat a lot with the dance we're learning so i have to wear skirts or risk major sweatage after class.
today at lunch i kinda just read stuff on my phone and one of the better looking guys in our grade (annie, you know who that is. the blonde one.) was all like, "is that an iphone?" and we made petty talk and he looked down at my screen and was all "MLIA!!!" and scooted very close to me (my foot was like on his butt) and we read MLIA for like ten minutes. we then talked about all our fave sites.
chem was ok. we had a test.
spanish. holy crapo. i extremely dislike this class. we have a quiz tomorrow. matt and i are seriously the only people who have never taken spanish before and it being spanish 1, you would think that it would be super simple and step by step. no. the teacher like breezes through EVERYTHING because everyone but me and matt already know it!!!
i "understand" it enough, but i can't speak it. it is basically memorization. and c'est tres stupide. or "el mucho stupido." yea, sure.
mom and i went to durham after school for a doctor's appointment and we got there early. so we went to these cute vintage shops. one was Dolly's and the other was Portobello Road. i love Dolly's. there is the best stuff in there that's actually kinda wearable. i got this cute pair of jodhpurs. i guess that's how you spell it. but they are cute and vintagey and kinda make me look like the chick in the middle:
http://thefoodinista.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/angels.jpg
but not as butch lesbo/possessed.
yeppp. then i went to youth group and we went around and visited elderly people, or as matt called them "oldies." we split up into predesignated groups and went to visit one old member of the church who like never comes named nellie phillips. she is really freaking cool. she's 96, is in perfect physical condition, has a great mind and memory, and drives herself places. she's a member of a bridge club and goes out to lunch with different people like three times a week. that part was great but my group... not so much.
it's me, this 6th grader who never talks and looks like something is about to leap out at her, this chick that i don't know very well, and this other gal that i want to slap. she is horribly rude and interrupts all the time. she has no social grace and she doesn't really pay attention. i saw nellie give her this look like, "come on. really?" and i thought that she would at least try to be polite in the presence of an elderly person. but no. she sat there fidgeting (and she's a big girl, so those limbs were every where) and slouching (she was almost literally lying down) and SMACKING HER GUM. with her mouth OPEN. and it was LOUD.
the conversation went like this:
mrs. phillips- "and my grandson lives in flor-..."
gal i want to slap- "where does he live in florida?"
mrs. phillips- "saraso-..."
gal- "i know some people who live in clear water, does he live there?"
mrs. phillips- *look of death* "no, he lives in sarasota. he fishes and likes sports. he's my only grandson by-..."
gal- "this is your son, right?"
ugh. and this gal completely monopolizes me at youth group, so it is literally impossible for me to talk to any of my other friends. instead, i am forced to hang out with this chick and her nasty friends. i am going to send an email to my youth director requesting that i be in a different group because "i want to forge new friendships which is impossible to do because i am currently so close to" this chick.
yep.
so i finished my homework around 9:45 and am going to go shower and straighten my hair.
:D
happy: we have mass tomorrow which means that we won't be dancing the insane dance that makes me sweat a lot.

tralala
today was a pretty good day.
i looked decent. i danced well. i had all my work ready to turn in.
i must say that i didn't eat as much today at lunch after The Realization, and
lamented the fact that i can no longer fit into some of my skirts and pants.
i came home from school to a box on my front porch filled with my clothes that i left in dallas, including KHAKI SKIRTS that fit!!!! this made me super excited. i plan on wearing one tomorrow.
annie will be glad to know that i shaved my legs in preparation.
BUT. there is happier news.
this upcoming weekend is labor day weekend or some other holiday that results in a long weekend. dad and i are going to bermuda with k and her family to tan, swim, and excavate a whale. :D
but to do this i was going to have to take a 7 a.m. flight on friday, thus missing a day of school which i would have to make up eventually. and i'm not good at making work up.
i received an email from dad saying that k's family's plane will be stopping at RDU at 6 pm on friday and i am going to be on that flight. not only does that mean that i won't have to check bags and go through major security, but it also means that i won't miss school!!
:D x 1000000000
being so happy, i quickly did my massive amount of homework and showered. it is now 9:51 pm and i am ready for bed. this is monumental.
alas, i did not go for a run today. not out of pure laziness, but my mother wouldn't let me because i am "still weak" from "that cold that you had over the weekend."
um. ok. so i am convinced that my mom is trying to make me fat because i am allowed to participate in a rigorous dance class for 45 minutes, but not go on a short run for about 20 minutes.
kidding.
sort of.
happy of the day:
