I finished! Hahahaha, I told you all it would have a really mature ending. BWAHAHAHAMWA.



MUSICALTSAMUSICALTSAMUSICAL

So I was totally and completley happy the other day, and now I'm totally and completely depressed. Funny how things change.

I don't think I can do TSA. I appreciate your faith in me, Aaron, but I don't think that I have enough motivation for missing two meetings (out of two) a week and making them up when I should be what, doing my earth science homework? Protecting my sanity? Plus it's not nice to anyone.

I need someone to help me decide which one to drop. I don't know if I am even considering dropping the play yet. I need to get rid of one of them. And I really have no idea which would be more fun, which would me better, which I would regret LESS. Because I would regret them both. I'm already regretting having to choose. I'm already regretting losing these opportunities. TSA- to make things and design things and become friends with new people and closer to people I don't see as often as I wish. To make things and design things and then MAKE THINGS and do things that I will need forever and ever and even do professionally, hopefully someday. Or the musical- probably the last time I will get into one, honestly. At least with a decent part. And to stay friends with all of my friends and the people in 6th and 7th grade who don't know me yet and to whom I would like to be the new Annie and Joasia.

This is one of the worst- NO, it is the worst- decision I have had to make in my entire life EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER. I'm going to DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE life sucks.

I guess I could do TSA next year? But who knows if I'll just put that off too. AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

BLOG WARS!

Isn't life just great when people don't want to say anything of any value but do enjoy the screaming? No more angry blog posts. Haven't we been through this before? I don't want people mad. You don't want people mad. We all just need to live in peace, harmony, and super burritos.

Reasons for Happiness

Everyone is so happy! Including me.

1. VIVADATE HAS FINALLY BEEN DECIDED ON!
2. I'm finally going to see The Social Network, which I've been wanting to see for ever and ever and ever.
3. There isn't going to be a math test tomorrow! Yes! Yes! Yes! Midterms: over.
4. I'm supposed to be "very happy" about the grade I got, according to Mr. McGrath's email (yeah, Meghan- he did send me one) which only makes me more curious, but still.
5. My bff the closet genius.
6. My bffs who cane to the SOCK HOP with the little children.
7. Movies. Movies rock.
8. THE MUSICAL! STORY TELLER NUMBER TWO! Because, you know, my dominant friend is number one. But it's good to be friends with the dominant people.
9. I'm reading Wicked and it's rocking my world. Yes, it's rocking my world. I WENT THERE.
10. Can I just summarize: vivadates, social network, no school and no tests tomorrow, bffs, movies, islands, books.


Life, my friends, is good.

Things Running Around My Head

Don't you feel foolish?

But I had a butt trumpet. My butt went "boop boop, boop boop,"

Love. I put my faith in love. I followed where it led. To my personal circle of hell. It has not worked out well. I wish that I were dead.

I am Number Four

WHO LOOKS STUPID NOW? YOU DO!

Just OH OH OH OH oh much better.

Even though I was blind before...

And that red head. Um. Mary Jane. She's really fond of him.

This is weird. It's weird. Very weird. Freaking weird.

I............. have become. Comfortably Numb.

I used to shiver like that. "I have no heat, I told y-" I used to sweat. . "I got a cold" Uh huh.

Vot is between you and Hermy-oh-ninny?

Say YES, Vanessa, YES, I must confess of my obsession.

To the WINDOWWWWWWW to the WALL (to the wall) "What are you doing?"

With the chance you've been given how can you not be, driven as hell?
I'm going to put it on that internet site, what's it called? "Youtube." Right, youtube.

Ohmygod, ohmygod you guys!

In cyberland we only drink. DIET COKE, COKE, COKE

Dobby never meant to killl.... Dobby only meant to maim, or seriously injure.

Haven't seen it in awhile since she brought you down.

With a french ambassadors daughter in her dorm room at Miss Porters. And you?

We've got these days of summer to remind us of each other.

So **** YOU, Draco, how's THAT for a happy thought!?! (hahahahhahahahahahhahahah)

I"M IN A RAGE! THIS IS THE MADDEST I"VE EVER BEEN.

Hey isn't this e-e-easy

I like being with you.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

London is drowning and I... I live by the RIVER...

Run and tell that!

Can anyone name all of the references? Just wondering. Also, I feel like no one reads this anymore. Is there anybody out there?

It's not done yet...

I just discovered flash. It's pretty awesome. Don't you agree? It's not done. I think I'm going to have the tree eat her. Just to be different in an immature kind of way.

The End of the World (part two) makes me cry. Just a little. Just a little.

Not trying to give anything away.

Fantastic Book.

Read it, please, would you?

These are some of the places where I cried. Well, teared up and choked a little. Got sad. Not cried. I saved that for the end. And this morning, in homebase, when talking about it. Ah, Rudy. I didn't put that, the most devastating part, up here. I would've gotten water on the camera if I tried. Plus it gives too much away. Something about a kiss. Something about a saumench.

It was a monday, and they walked on the tightrope to the sun. Hair the color of lemons. Oh, crucified christ, Rudy. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. I've actually done this before. There will be a lot of Book Thief tributes on this blog, I guess.

Wordle

A wordle for my blog, too! Adri and Sophie have also posted theirs. It's kinda fun to see what words come up biggest. For instance, mine is all about books. Because I've been reading a lot recently.

Dash and Lily, Chapter 14

Fourteen


(Lily)

December 28th

According to Mrs. Basil E., *fanciful* is the adjective for which Snarl--I mean Dash--feels the most longing. Certainly it explained why he'd answered the call of the red notebook at the Strand to begin with and played along, for a while, until he discovered that the real Lily, as opposed to his imagined one, would turn him less *fanciful* and more *dour* (3. gloomy, sullen).


What a waste.

Although, fanciful's origin circa 1627 made me still love the word, even if I'd ruined its applicability to my connection with Snarl. (I mean *DASH!*) Like, I could totally see Mrs. Mary Poppencock returning home to her cobblestone hut with the thatched roof in Thamesburyshire, Jolly Olde England, and saying to her husband, "Good sir Bruce, would it not be wonderful to have a roof that doesn't leak when it rains on our green shires, and stuff?" And Sir Bruce Poppencock would have been like, "I say, missus, you're very *fanciful* with your ideas today." To which Mrs. P. responded, "Why, Master P., you've made up a word! What year is it? I do believe it's circa 1627! Let's carve the year--we *think*--on a stone so no one forgets. *Fanciful!* Dear man, you are a genius. I'm so glad my father forced me to marry you and allow you to impregnate me every year.

YES. Sarcastic amazement. Hahahahhaha. You should read this book, and the reason that I'm linking you to the picture on Jessie's blog is because she lent it to me. Now she's gonna read Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist and we'll be book buddies! More so than before! Ha. I can no longer use exclamation points without thinking of Boomer. By the way, this book is much more appropriate word/vocabulary/content-wise than Nick and Norah, some of you might not be scared away! Though, in my opinion, it is not nearly as good. It kinda seems almost as if it was written with not only no original plan (which is true, they just emailed the chapters back and forth to each other) but also didn't go through much plot editing after, which makes it sometimes not that realistic. But it's still really really really good. I really like Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. Nick and Norah. DON'T WATCH THE MOVIE, READ THE BOOK, MY, MY METRO CARD, HE'S NOT A GEEK, HE'S A SEXY BASS GOD, and don't you doubt it.

ARTEMIS FOWL.

YAYYYYYYY love love i love him and he's fifteen now, you know, reasonably old enough for an imaginary character deserving of girls in love with him in the real world.

It wasn't a very cool place to end the book, you know. I won't ruin it for any of you, but it doesn't leave him feeling completely fabulous. And now I need to read the next one, which I don't even know exists. Stupid authors. I have to wait until NEXT OCTOBER for the third leviathan, and now this. (guess what I have now!! Genius wars! You know I've had some awesome books to read if I haven't gotten arOund to that yet)

So yeah, Artemis Fowl. HE GOES CRAZY! I can tell you this without feeling guilty because someone told me before I read it too. He goes crazy and starts counting by fives! Words! Multiple personalities! Crazy! Artemis fowl!
He never struck me as a mentally diseased man, actually, in fact it was kind of dissapointing. All I wanted was for him to get all ah-mazing and go out with that Minerva girl, but no, that's not gonna HAPPEN, is it. Haha.

I'm quite shallow with books. You should've seen me with Leviathan. I was like, "Come ON he doesn't even know that she's a GIRL yet." Duuudeeee.

Another interesting thing about Artemis Fowl is that you can totally tell that Eoin went on a Douglas Adams fest before writing And Another Thing (which he wrote when Adams died before finishing HHGTTG) and so now the writing sounds kinda Douglas Adams wanna be, a little. Which makes me sad because colfer is/was SO GOOD funny. It's still good... Just I can somehow hear the Adams behind it. Weird, I know.

Love Artrmis, love him. He's like, the coolest, ever. Epic evil geniuses turned good turned crazy are HOT, man.

I'm becoming pretty weird with my book crushes. Some day I'll realize that these people aren't real and I will be very very sad. Until then, I'll just shove that logic to the back of my head.

I Know What Steampunk is Now!

Leviathan, Behemoth.
Scott Westerfeld.

Very good.


What is the third one, and when is it out?

I made something PEOPLE SIZED with my sewing machine

I made a skirt. And it's so depressing that I didn't have enough fabric and it was too short and has to be my sisters. So so depressing because actually, she doesn't really wear skirts. And so she won't even appreciate it properly. God. And plus, I actually need more skirts I don't have enough.

 See that awesome elastic scrunch thing? I learned how to do that by staring at an Urban Outfitter's skirt for a few minutes. I then said, "Wow, that doesn't look to hard," followed by, "I can cut that elastic out of my broken pajama bottoms!" And I did.

Had to make a label, you know how it is. It says "Livvy." In cursive. On a sewing machine. The second "v" is so messed up... whatever.

 I'm especially happy with how this seam turned out. What seam, you ask? Exactly. Haha.

It's the triangle patterned one, bordered on red on either side in the center of the screen. A little purple sticking out on our right.

 That one.

However, this one isn't that cool. It's kinda messy. Well, that's what the back is for, right?

I was so happy that I made something people sized instead of just American Girl Doll sized. And this kind of skirt is insanely easy too. Just the ironing so the pleats get kinda even at the bottom was annoying. Pleating is annoying, people. It takes all this pins and crap. Ugh. Good thing I have a new magnetic pin holder instead of just a... plastic bowl! And of course, my new TOMATO one from Lucynda!!!

And, in answer to whatever questions you had- no, I didn't do anything other than this all break. Well, sinse this didn't take that long, I managed to do largely nothing all break. Other than read. Ahhhhhhhh....... books. I read the Hunger Games! YUS! And I'm on the last one of the HHGTTG (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) that Douglas Adams wrote, anyway, before he died. Such a shame. Can't wait to read Eion Colfer's ending, though.

Books for you to read (here, I'll help you out with this.)

1. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (all of them. this is a series that will greatly improve your life. Honestly. Everything looks better to me now. Everything makes more sense in a less-sense kind of way)

2. The Hunger Games series

3. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.

All of the above are available for borrowing, speak to me.

Other than the last two Hunger Games. I only have those electronically, thank you Amazon, thank you Aunt Kimmy, thank you Kindle.

Well, this is a ranting kind of post. Sorry!
