Too Much Awesome

i dont feel like posting this to 10MoW and i need more posts on here anyway.

there have been references to A Christmas Story by teachers in school. in science i was the only one that understood one reference and had seen the movie. although, we only had 6 out of 15 kids there that day. then another reference was made in history. and the quiz that day was fairly easy.

yesterday i participated in project for awesome for 3-4 hours about. its not much, but it was all i could do. and i had way too much sugar.

i got a stocking full of candy and other stuff from Mr. Cooper (my adviser). one thing was a little stuffed animal snowman! ♥

today there is supposed to be a huge snow storm and i am supposed to go to a get together at angela's house.

tomorrow, if the weather is not bad, i am supposed to go to my grandparents' house to help make cookies with other family members.

fairly busy weekend. luckily i have barely any homework for monday. school is almsot out! christmas is almost here! im getting excited! i still need to do some shopping. i mostly have stupid little things to give people this year.

in honor of Christmas the song of the day is:

Jesus Gets Nothing for Christmas- Hank Green
(it's suck in my head)

bored now. lonely. waiting. hoping the night turns out well.

anyway, i dont mean to bore you. so...

2. Esta Sol
3. Political

i really need to blog more, sorry to any one who actually reads this blog sometimes and cares.

anyway, i'm just waiting for gilmore girls to come on.

oh, i've planned on doing this later this year, but i might as well do it a few times when i'm bored. so, someone try to remind me to make a post one day consisting of the random notes i've taken in school.

last night i finished season 4 of Is it a Good Idea to Microwave This? and it is a pretty cool series.

also, Angela is finally reading the Percy Jackson series in honor of the Greek mythology we are learning in English. the only thing i don't like about this is that it makes me miss the series more.

oh, and there's a commercial for Mary Poppins that keeps coming on and reminding me of an SNL skit: (not sure if this will work or not)

k.. well.. gilmore girls is starting.. and i think about covered everything.. so.. thanks to anyone who actually read this.. and..

Thanksgiving and Spirit Week

hello everyone, i am trying to include stuff that i missed from school in this entry and try to talk about thanksgiving. i hope everyone had a happy holiday.

brief description of spirit week: 1. we were the best freshmen class ever at this school.
2. tied with seniors on hall decorations, had a balloon and a 'silent movies' sign on my locker, got to walk behind a hanging cloth thing, music played in 2 hallways, hurt my ears trying to walk past the speakers right outside Tomlin's room. 3. got really dressed up in black and gold. 4. seniors won of course. 5. listened to people talk about how they make sure the seniors win.

thanksgiving: lots of food. got full 4 times. Matthew was restless. idk what else to say.

spent friday night and this morning at my aunt's house watching harry potter movies. now im going to get her to read the books!

thats about all i remember. i hate that i forget all the good stuff.

oh well.. blog to ya later.

Confusion and Boredom

Ok, just posted to 10MoW. In English we got assigned a project to do with a partner on a Greek god/goddess or titan. Chris and I are working together on Nike. We were supposed to get together today to start the project, but I haven't been able to talk to him all day and I don't know if we are still getting together.

Anyway, in other news, I'm currently watching the end of Seinfeld. I've been watching half of random Christmas movies at night on Family.

My dad just got annoyed because it said that the Wizard of Oz was on next but then RV started. He changed the channel to something about the Goo Goo Dolls.

Now Discovery Channel is on.

I don't know. =/ I'm bored.

Just found out that Chris and I aren't getting together tonight. At least now I don't have to try to be figuring that out.

I'm going to try to get some homework done tonight. Probably gonna try to get some information for the project. I have to try to make sure that I don't have any homework to do Tuesday night. I'm not sure if that will work out too well.

Oh, well. Wish me luck.

Pain

(decided not to worry about capitalization on this blog cause it's more personal.)

no school today!

went to lunch at Friendly's with my mom then went to the mall cause she had to get new lights and litter for our tortoise. it is torture to be the pet store! i want all of the pets and i felt bad for them.

anyway, as most of you probably read, i had to lift weights in gym yesterday. i know that i'm out of shape, but it hurt anyway. i couldn't even do most of the things we were supposed to do. anyway, i could barely move today without feeling pain.

well, on another note, i made my mom watch rent. we watched up to the intermission last night and the rest today. and i am proud to say that she liked it.

now i'm in the middle of doing homework, sadly. i wish that i didn't have to. i was going to do it last night, but then we started watching rent.

anyway, i have to go eat and do work.

School Related Post, Sorry

Going to help my mom cook dinner soon so sorry if this post is kinda crazy.

I was talking to my mom about school today. And I think my next few years of high school are going to be tough. My mom talked to the guidance counselor because I'm in a lower level science class than I was signed up for.

So, as my science teacher said, my mom said that I will definitely be in an honors science class next year. Also, apparently my mom asked why I didn't get into geometry, because I'm pretty good at math. So, I guess the head of the science department is going to call her later.

Also, she was told that next year I will probably be offered to take geometry and algebra 2 at the same time. Good, but it'll be complicated. Oh, and they will probably both be honors.

So, some of my possible schedule:

English H
French 3 H
Geometry H
Algebra 2 H
History
Biology H
Gym

Yeah, I no gum is a little off topic and yes, I was trying to be positive with most of the levels for my classes, but this is probably about what my schedule will look like. I'm scared. The 2 maths will probably confuse me a little.

Song(s) of the day:

I Should Tell You -Rent http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJCiecI9TQY
I was singing this song all day.

I Musta Got Lost -The J Geils Band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGbEi5_84Lk
Sorry it's not a great recording. This got stuck in my head from I Should Tell You somehow in gym. I don't know.

Just wanted to express my concern. I will try to go through it if given the chance anyway.

That's about it I think. Will post to 10MoW later.

Do Re Mi

I had this song stuck in my head most of the day yesterday. Look it up. Youtube is down for maintenance right now. Sorry.

No school today for election day.

I don't really have anything to say. I'm sorry.

I almost woke up at 6:30 this morning. It was awful.

2,565 words so far for NaNoWriMo. I'm behind, but am determined to catch up more today.

So, I guess I should get to work.

Blog to ya later.

Good luck fellow NaNoWriMo-ers!

Sorry

I really want to go into more detail on some things on 10MoW here but I don't feel like it now. Just trying to finish posts right now.

Today is the first day of NaNoWriMo!!

I'm so excited. I have to get back to work. So far I have 1,065 words!

Sorry about the post being short and sorry I haven't been keeping my promises.

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you all enjoyed it and got lots of candy.

I went out to dinner with Chris and his parents. It was very last minute. I wasn't very hungry, but I enjoyed myself anyway.

I got to go to Roger's Orchard at 10 AM. I'm so happy we finally got to go! I got maple candy and fudge and apple cider doughnuts and apple cider.

Also, my watch finally died :(.

That about covers everything.

Happy November, NaNoWriMo, and Halloween to you all!

A Game and an Analysis

Yes I did just post a few minutes ago. I'm bored and I just read Gommeziblog (http://gomezzio.blogspot.com/) so I'm going to use his ipod story game.

Marriage- Dust in the Wind-Kansas

Have a child- Master of Puppets-Metallica

Become sick- Accio Deathly Hallows-Hank Green

Death- What it Takes-Aerosmith

Funeral- Point of Know Return-Kansas

Ok.. That was kinda weird. Now I want to try to analyze this based on title and song. You might want to listen to the songs first to better understand.

When my ipod was born he (I guess) was excited about life or his parents didn't want to miss anything in his life (cause parents are like that). Then on his first birthday maybe he almost choked to death or something, but of course he survived. He was just without air for a while. On his first day of school I guess he started to like some girl and either that alone upset him or he found out that she didn't like him. I guess in middle school he was mean to everyone else or something so he was like Godzilla. The first girlfriend thing I don't really understand. Um.. Puberty I guess either he stopped worrying about stuff or something. After his first breakup he felt as if nobody understood him. In high school he had a lot of free time (maybe because he stopped caring about stuff and therefore didn't do work). I guess maybe he was indifferent about his high school graduation. He didn't choose something to major in in college. College I guess was like an illusion to him. It all seemed fake. Or else he realized that life was this way during college. College graduation was depressing I guess.. someone died.. I don't really know.

His future wife I guess was either a drug addict or else he got addicted to drugs and that was a metaphor. He 'fell in love' with drugs. Engagement is kinda straight forward. His marrage no longer matters I guess so maybe they got divorced or she died or something. I think he didn't have children, but got into drugs again instead. Or else his child ended up getting into drugs. I don't really understand the getting sick one. If you taker letters away it says 'Accio Death' which would mean he's wants death to come. I think he's trying to let go of life before he dies or other people are trying to let go of him. Not too sure on the funeral one. Maybe it's that everyone knows that they can move on better after the funeral.

Yeserday's Game

Went to the football game last night. Chris and I had to leave early. We were winning 27 to 12 (I think) when we left. I didn't have as good of a time as last time I went.

Josh looked at me early in the game, but I couldn't tell if he nodded or not. I barely nodded back.

I was alone most of the time. And even if Kasey, Chris, and Jamie were near me none of them usually paid attention to me so it didn't matter.

It got really cold and started to rain. After it started to rain Chris tried to steal my hood a few times and him and Kasey put it on my head. I didn't want it on though. I like the rain (I know I'm weird).

I tried to watch Josh as much as possible during the game, but I also watched the game a little. Thanks to Coach Anderson I now understand it a little.

Social events aren't for me. I get ignored by everyone then yelled at for not being social.

Anyway, into today...

I was originally going to go on a haunted hayride with Chris later, but it's raining so we're gonna try tomorrow.

Maybe today I'll try to read a lot of Catching Fire. I don't have anything better to do. I'm bored already.

I still don't really feel good from last night.

Anyway, sorry to bother you all with a fairly depressing post. Sorry to disappoint you all by telling you about how I'm not good at being social. If you scold me in the comments I won't blame you.

I guess I should go now.

The Weekend is Almost Over :(

Ok, this is my first weekend post! And from now on there probably will only be posts when we don't have school.

On Saturday I got to go to my grandparents' house and see my 3 year old cousin, Matthew! Then I got to go to 2 parties with my boyfriend, Chris. It was the first time in a long time that I got to see his family. The first party was because his cousin was officially adopted and the second was because his grandmother retired. It was a fun night. Chris's grandfather invited me to Thanksgiving. I realized last night that I've never had a group of people outside of my family accept me as much as his family.

Anyway, the snow is gone now (yes there was snow already).

I stayed up late last night. It feels good to do that :). School tomorrow :(. Half days most of this week :).

Ok, I'm done with that now.

Well I guess I should finish my homework.

I always start to write 'Today is awesome because' at the end of these posts.

Thoughts About the Blog

I was thinking a lot about what I could do with this blog while I was trying to get to sleep last night and I think I might actually try some of them. The real one that I remember is song of the day (if it applies for that day)- I will name a song and give you the link to it for a youtube video. It will always be one of the songs that I had stuck in my head a lot that day.

So far today I don't have one, but last night while I was trying to sleep I started singing DFTBA
( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0VnI1dI7zw ).

Anyway, I went to Nick's (refer to 10MoW blog) party last night. It reminded me of how much I miss get-togethers. You can read Eric's blog for more details about that.

Yes, I'm being kind of lazy with this post.

I went to my 3 year old cousin, Matthew's party and I mostly explained that in tweets.

Sorry that I was kind of teasing you with this stuff, but I don't feel like retyping stuff.

Anyway, blog to ya later!

(If you ever want to read my posts again, that is)

First, Dede could Read... Then, she could speak... Now, Dede is taking it to the next level. Dede can BLOG!

Thank you for the idea Eric.

I have been thinking for a while since I started high school and 10MonthsofWork (read it! http://10monthsofwork.blogspot.com/) that I should start my own blog. Now I finally am!

By the way, most of you won't really understand my title so please don't worry about it.

Anyway, I will try to post non-school related/after school/summer things on here as much as possible. In the next few weeks I will try to make the blog look nicer, too and get filled with more information.

Yay! I'm proud of myself for finally doing this and thank you Eric for pretty much forcing me to.

Hopefully next time I post I have more to say and the post is more interesting.

Blog to ya later everyone!
