ALL good ideas come to people in their sleep.

Well, it's true.
No babysitting today. I'm going to shower and maybe go to Michael's.
The Modcloth dress I ordered is a bit small, but its good enough as long as I don't gain weight between now and graduation.

-----------UGLY BETTY NERDINESS-------
Even though it's cancelled after 4, we reserved the full season.
Words cannot express how amazed I am.

anyway...That was all I feel like writing today.

Late Night Thoughts. Good Buys and DIY's

So I got this Modcloth dress, but.....eh.
It's freaking small. I'm pretty flat figured, but after wearing it for ten minutes I had a red line above and below my bust.

Lately, I've been obsessed with DIY t-shirt recon.
I found this really ugly green thing I've never worn. 6 hours of cutting and watching movies later....
BAM BABY.
I love it. I also found a dress concept to make from a to-big t shirt.
Megan Nikolai is amazing. The end.

Also, I found a 7 dollar U2 poster.

The problem with spring break is that everyone worth talking to is on vacation, or busy with family. I feel like such a loser.
Which is not to say I haven't been doing things. Aside from Legome work, I've been hanging out with the band, and Alan, Andrew....
I'm ALMOST OFF BOOK. YUS.
Hasta. I am letired.

Band Practice, 'work days' , OH and my hair!

It was fun.
We picked out some names, but Emma wasn't there(again) so we couldn't actually narrow it down a whole lot.
I guess we actually got stuff done. Ruth taught me a new song she wrote and we got some harmonies down for Hallelujah. Also Tab has started to write a song, which will be about Ninjas.
So I guess it was pretty interesting. We 'promoted' Miranda to keyboardist. :D

Also I got a haircut. She gave me like these retro short bangs and some choppier layers so that the shape of it isn't so....triangular. It's probably the first haircut I've actually liked in a long time.

Yesterday was fun, but today is a work day. I'm going to clean out my closet and sweep under the futon.....hasta.

Graduation dress!


This really skanky girl told me once that she had already picked out her 8th grade graduation dress, her homecoming dress, and her prom dress.
gagmewithaspoon.
What a priss.
But anyways, I was on my favorite online store and I saw this dress...
It's supposed to arrive on the 22nd.
:D

I finally went for a bike ride yesterday. I met Andrew at the library and we walked around for a bit. We went to South Side and discussed the order of the universe.
I love breaks.

Today I'm meeting Quinn and his 'freind' at Farren's for lunch, and then I'm FINALLY getting my hair cut.
Angela said it was okay. She's also letting me skip rehearsal the night of seder.
For those of you that don't know about seder, let me explain:

Passover is really long, and it stinks because I can't eat tacos or pizza or cereal, but it starts with a huge meal. Something like 28 people are going to be at seder this year.
So as always, I have to help cook.
Which, to be honest, I don't mind doing, since I love eating all this stuff anyway.

MOVING ON.

After hair, I'm going to band practice.
Before all of this, I have coloring to do for my job. I guess I like doing it though. The people I work with in the company are all pretty relaxed. I don't usually have deadlines or anything, and it's all easy work. They're never too specific and they trust my judgement. Of course, I don't want to be a colorist for my whole life, but it pays for my tickets to the Virginia.

My hair ia gross. Time to shower and be productive.
Hasta.

__________________
I found my graduation dress, yes, dress the other day.
Its supposed to be here in 3 days.
during rehearsals I feel kind of ignored.
Maybe its because I'm being annoying but don't realize it or.....

That's too painful to think about. I hate looking at my own imperfections. Anyways, today was a pretty interesting day.
After hanging up a UTDS poster in Taber's room, Alex and I watched "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" Until the 1st bell rang. then we asked if it was okay and thats what we did 1st hour.
Gym was boring......
AND THEN 3rd-7th hour I read poetry to 7th graders.
In the last 2 hours we did....nothing!
And after my walk home I found a crocus and did NOTHING.
Man, I love breaks.
by for now all.

Angsty, Bitchy, Pissy rant.

-YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED-

There's dumb drama going on. I guess I'm emotionally confused...people are saying alex and i should go out. I mean, we're friends, but not like that.

You know, this happens with all of my guy friends.
'Ugh' is the only word that can possible describe my mood.
My parents are being stupid. That's all I'm in the mood to say right now.

Sundays suck.

I haven't posted in a bit, so I thought I'd give a little update.
The drama club got our t shirts thursday.
I've been wearing it a lot....so now it's gross.
So I can't even wear it on monday as planned.
Pretel gave us weekend homework, not sure why. You'd think she'd be nice enough to give us some slack, bur NOOOOOO,
ISATs are totally painless in her cruel little plan for the eighth grade class.

Anyway, friday we took an essay....so the ISAT's are over forever.
WOO HOO!

I really hate sundays for various reasons.
Today was the last day of the second trimester and so I had to take my watercolor home earlier then expected. Conveniently enough, it rained today. It wasn't even all the way dry!
My sunday school teacher doesn't seem to understand me.
She's convinced that it's impossible to be paying attention or thinking if you're doing something else(drawing, playing with something in your hands, etc). It's very bothersome. And this one girl who is always really mean to me kind of embarrassed me in front of the class.
Now you'd think that after knowing most of these people since preschool I wouldn't be embarrassed if this bitch read a personal note to everyone else in the class. But you'd be wrong. It takes an 'ass' to be embarrassing.

Life seems so monotonous right now. I need something to dramatically change and make my life cooler.
Spring is coming, but it needs to hurry up and finish the arrival.
As soon as it gets nice out, I'm going to start doing a little pet project of mine. Not sure what it will be called, but every sunday afterwards I'm going to do something interesting.

I have a big jar of pennies which I find virtually useless. As soon as Lucy's handlebars get raised, I'm going to bike around the city and stopping in several places to put one penny head side up.

Call it stupid, but when I was little I ALWAYS got pennies tail side up. They're not as lucky that way.
So I believe that no one should have to go through the same sort of luck. Plus it'd just be cool.

Comments please. Hopefully not just Emma and Andrew.

Crap. it's March.

AIW opens friday. We're not ready.
The photos can wait though so it's okay.

I found Ugly Betty season 3 and have been watching like a maniac.
Also Joe has been going to adorably obsessive measures to finish it before me.
He really pisses me off, note that the last sentence was sarcasm. ugh.
Today he was eating and I went up to watch on my laptop. He went up with me, with his food, and finished his food outside my door when I told him it would make a mess. With the pigsty that is my room, he's the last thing i need right now.

I didn't think he could be any more annoying, until today.

Aside from that, ISATS are less hellish then I expected.
I'm not as slow as I used to be with testing. It's kind of awesome not to be the one stupid kid that finishes last.
For reasons I can't explain in writing, I was really out of it today.
I spent most of my day wondering about whether I was truly using MY personality as opposed to some false one i have crafted over a period of time.

The people around me that know me well knew I wasn't quite myself and left me in peace to write, draw, and throw things around my room etcetera.
But of course a certain someone was too selfless to understand and wouldn't stop complaining about this and that.
And now I am on a tangent.

Ommmmm.

After a series of interweb related events, I discovered an Artificial Intelliegence website called Personality Forge.
On this site there are several programs involving the creation and programming of chat bots.

The concept seems really cool, but first I have to read what would amount to 100 printed pages of information on how to program these chat bots. I've looked at a few chat bots on the site and it looks easy, but then the AI level is something really big. Some of these bots have memory and intricate personalities so its hard to know all of the possible responses.

Anyways, I'm calm now. I'm going to do some yoga and have a hot bath. I feel creative.
Whoever gave me the idea to start this blog is a saint.

The last tearjerker EVER!

I'm tired this morning....but then, i'm always tired in the morning, even if i get a full ten hours and no ones screaming for me to get out of bed. I'm not really a morning person. Anyways, ISATs are today, and they will be the last ISATs I ever take ever. That gets me excited. The next standardized benchmark tests I will probably ever take to please the government in any way, shape, or form will be the SAT's or the ACT's...and those will all be for good causes to I can get a bug fat scholarship to Grenell and launch a fashion line.........

Getting my head out of the clouds. Hmph. More afterschool. Blogging in the morning is a dumb idea. Hasta.
