FINALLY!!!

At long last, Penguin and I have FINALLY managed to full-on tackle a pizza guy! We feel SO awesome right now!

Before I go into that, here are the long- awaited Halloween photos!

First, I'll start with a few pics from my birthday party, because I never put those up. Here's Kitty and me.

Kitty's the blonde one with the normal expression, and I'm the... other one. Pretty funny, actually.




Next is Penguin, my fellow pizza-guy-tackling-buddy. She is in a weird pose, and I don't know why.

Yeah, I think this picture pretty much captures the essence of Penguin. Do you think that pose is on purpose?




This is TWWOTF, as you should be able to tell by the refined posture and straightened hair. Ahh, what the heck, everyone has fun sometimes, right? Even if she IS virtually irrecognizable.

That is not beer she is drinking, thank you very much. That is Jones soda, which is almost as good as Izze.



Next is a close-up of Spoilsport, which I don't quite understand why I took because she's doing nothing but take up useful space on my very small memory card. Seriously, why bother if she won't even smile?

Ha, she looks like a deer caught in headlights. That's a little sad, because I think she's trying to look intimidating.


Ahh, here are the Halloween pics! Another one of Spoilsport. Why me? She seems to be mixing an odd kind of witches' brew, even though she ended up going as a Soul Reaper. Yeah, none of the One Piece costumes worked. Spoilsport had a spoilsportish change of heart, Penguin didn't come, Kitty didn't come, and I couldn't get my costume on time, so I had to go as Boy. And, believe me, neither he nor any of my friends were happy about that.


This is Mini-Me in her secret agent disguise, staring bracingly into the camera. I'm a little scared of this picture.

She's really been growing lately, so I don't think I can keep calling her that, but I'll do it anyway.




Here's Spoilsport's brother, Junior, holding up his dog, Dr. Diabolical, in front of his face. He's called Junior because he is Spoilsport's Spoilsport-in-training. Absolutely wimpy, that one.

Dr. Diabolical is out to get me. Don't even ask me to say any more.




This is a sideways portrait of Bonita, the one with the brown hair, and Twin #2, the one with the glasses. They're both very sweet people. Yeah, boring.

Or so I think.




Here is Horsie, in all her crazy Western glory. She claimed to be her long-lost twin cousin(don't ask me what THAT'S supposed to mean), but we all knew it was just her at heart.

Now, I didn't name her Horsie because of her Westernness, but because of her love of horses. I'm serious, she's obsessed with them. Every other word out of her mouth is 'horse.' Makes her a real pain to talk to.

This is No-Name, who fell very much in love with Boy halfway through the party and made things even more awkward for him. As I believe I've said before, she has no interesting characteristics, except for her ability to fall in love with my alter egos. Moving on.





From back to front, here are Miss Acting Buddy, Twin #2, and Mawmy. I don't believe I've introduced Mawmy yet, but she acts very motherly all the time and can get rather annoying if you're not in the need for motherliness. She is my only friend besides Spoilsport in my Advising class.




Last of mah buddeez but not last of the pictures, here's Twin #1. Sideways. How did that happen?

She's the self-confident one, if you'll remember. I think you'll be able to tell if you put her picture next to her sister's. In fact, I'll show you.


See? totally different disposition. See? See?


Yessir, totally different.









And, finally, me and (promptly being shoved out of the image) Bonita! No, that's just a little mistake. We're buddies. Right, Bonita? Right? What's with the creepy expression?

Sayonara, everybody! And remember; your life isn't complete until you've tackled a pizza guy!

I'm Alive!

I have not died. Not yet, I don't think. If I did, you would be sad. Right? Why aren't you answering?

So, I'm all happy and stuff, because I just recovered from swine flu. Me no like swine flu. It's yucky.

I'm also happy because I got well in time to go to Spoilsport's Halloween celebration! All our friends were there(aka all the people who weren't cool enough to be invited to the cool people's parties, which SUPPOSEDLY invited everyone in the grade.).

I'd upload the pics I took, but I need to know one thing; Can I trust you guys?

Sayonara and CAN I?

Interesting...

Did I tell you that I have no friends in the cast of the musical? Only one. Miss Acting Buddy doesn't count, because she's so obsessed with keeping her rep up that she only talks to me a. when no one else is around or b. when we're at a Girl Scouts meeting.

My only friend is named Theresa. If you're wondering why I put her real name, she asked me to. She's in the grade above me, and she's in the same situation as I am, only she actually cares. It makes me sad.

The good news, though, is that SG(Sadistic Grandpa, Sir Limey Pants's new name. Don't ask) saw that Theresa wasn't here today. I was lying on the floor during a break, staring at the ceiling, when I found him lying next to me. I asked him why, and he said, "If I can't be your boyfriend, then at least I'll help you through the hard times."

I was happy, even though he said it was only for the duration of the musical, and possibly the spring play if I chose to do that, too. I was happy to be accepted, if only because of one person.

I'm sorry if this post was a little serious, so here's something funny to cheer it up.



I swear, hedgehogs are my new favvy animal just because of this video!

Sayonara!

I Wore My Hair Down Today,

Character bios! These are Lind and Roz, who are focused on in the second book. Lind is evile.


Lind of Sae; While she was always under the same pressure as Lus and Luc, it was always known she would probably not be the one to take over Sae. While Lus is like the pinnacle of Saedom and Luc is a natural leader, she has always been a very rational person, sometimes unable to grasp the strangeness of Sae and why rebellion is needed in this country. Always worshiping the one who has power, she believes Tii should be respected. She works as a Logger, taking care of timber. Unbeknown to Lus and Luc, she witnessed the death of her parents, and that's why she respects Tii so much. In fact, this event affected her so much, she was driven slightly insane and set fire to Sae. Lus alone witnesses this, and is very stricken by the betrayal of her sister. Though she appears to be heartless toward her siblings, when she finds out that Luc was killed by the fire, she becomes sane enough to become a spy against Tii in the rebellion. Born on October 12th.

And now Roz. He's the one who saved when Cla was mugged. Is Cla's most trusted friend.


Roz of Ra; He's the one who saved Cla when she was mugged at age eight. In the process, he became best friends with her, even though they live in different cities. Of course, since Ra and Aire are so close to each other, he can visit her every weekend. Though he doesn't realize it until Cla loses her sanity in the end, he's always harbored secret feelings for her, and finds himself to be the only one she can trust as well. when he goes to Sae, he becomes very attached to the place and is sorely disappointed when it is destroyed. When he finds out about Laux's dreams, he doesn't believe in them, but is not surprised when they come true. Even though they live in the same city, he is not as close to Laux as he is to Cla. Cla, though, becomes close to Laux and listens to her predictions. Born on August 27.

Sayonara!

Well, then...

My family had the family birthday party for me, Peanut, and Mom today. Since we all have birthdays in October, we all get the same party. Whoopie.

As you know, I come from a family of nutjobs, so what happened was pretty odd for anyone sane to comprehend.

I'm telling you for the last time, NO ONE in my family is on drugs. I think that clears things up for you.

Now on to the stuff I feel like writing about!

On Friday, the most recent day that I had Art, something funny happened. Since we just finished our last project, we were having a bit of free time today. We were still forced to sit in our assigned seats. Drat.

My assigned seat is next to Mr. President(have I told you about him yet?), and Slush came over to talk to him. Apparently, they both have put off doing their outside-class project off until now, even though it's due Wednesday. I can't really blame them. I have, too.

The project is to take an old masterpiece (Mona Lisa, The Scream, etc.)and redraw it into something modern, like giving them an ipod.

So they were both completely clueless as to what they should draw. They sat there for ever, just coming up with stupid ideas that would earn them both Fs. Finally, they asked me what I was going to draw.

I hadn't come up with anything, so I told them the first thing that came out of my head, I was going to draw a talkshow with Mona Lisa AND The Scream. I was surprised by the ingenious of the out-of-the-blue idea. They were, too.

Slush asked me if I was actually going to use that idea. I told him, "If I can come up with a -spur-of-the-moment ingenious thing like that, do you really think I'm going to give it away that easily?" He stared at me and said, "Did you really just come up with that on the spot?"

I said yes, and he said, "Aww, I was thinking that if you were joking, I would do that." I spent the rest of the period comforting him. Wasted time. Seriously. I mean, I was drawing caterpillars until then! See? Absolutely wasted.

Sayonara!

It worked!

Hurrah! What I said worked!! So well, in fact, I'll tell you something funny!

I somehow ended up saying an entire Shakespeare MONOLOGUE that I didn't even know I knew, which belongs to Helena from A Midsummer Night's Dream. Here it is.

HELENA: How happy some o'er other some can be!

Through Athens I am thought as fair as she.

But what of that? Demetrius thinks not so;

He will not know what all but he do know.

And as he errs, doting on Hermia's eyes,

So I, admiring of his qualities.

Things base and vile, holding no quantity,

Love can transpose to form and dignity.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,

And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.

Nor hath Love's mind of any judgment taste;

Wings, and no eyes, figure unheedy haste.

And therefore is Love said to be a child,

Because in choice he is so oft beguiled.

As waggish boys in game themselves forswear,

So the boy Love is perjured everywhere.

For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne,

He hailed down oaths that he was only mine;

And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,

So he dissolved, and show'rs of oaths did melt.

I will go tell him of fair Hermia's flight.

Then to the wood will he to-morrow night

Pursue her; and for this intelligence

If I have thanks, it is a dear expense.

But herein mean I to enrich my pain,

To have his sight thither and back again.

Yeah, Sir Limey Pants sure backed off after that. If ever you need to turn down a lime, bring out the Helena inside.

Now for the funny thing! If you go to Google and type in "find Chuck Norris," and click I'm feeling lucky, something REALLY funny shows up! I'm serious! Do it!

Sayonara!

What I will do.

I know what I'll say to him. I will ask myself, "What would Shakespeare do?" Then go up to him and spout off the first Shakespeare quote I can think of.

I'm hoping it's either "Alas, poor Yorick," from Hamlet, or "Out, damn spot, out, I say!" from Macbeth. They both seem like rejection sentences(Well, not really in the case of 'Yorick,' but I really want to say that for some reason).

Sayonara!

A major FLUB.

Well, that was a major flub. I was putting my script away after play rehearsal when Sir(not) Limey Pants walked up and asked for my answer. Doggone it, why is he in the play too?

The zipper on my backpack was being really stupid, so I was very distracted(once again) and said the completely wrong answer.

I said what I'd say to a boy I'd like. I said that I had to consult my friends first.

Now it sounds like I actually like him, but am afraid to go out with him. Fear is far from my number one priority. I must make him think I'm not intimidated. I am fearless.

Now, what am I going to do? The zipper on my backpack's broken, AND I've got a (not)limey boy who thinks I like him. I don't think I can get through another day under his (not) limey gaze.

Slush looked oddly lost today. It seems that without his (not) limey entourage, he is very upset. His locker is right next to mine, so I should know.

Maybe he's limey instead! Maybe they're all secretly limey except for Sir (not) Limey Pants and all of those boys who have girlfriends!

NERVY SPAZ!!! NERVY SPAZ!!! THE NERVY SPAZ TO END ALL NERVY SPAZZES!!!

Sayonara(twitch)!

My Birthday

Well then, I know this is way too late, but Now for my birthday post!

At my party, we had a bubble eating contest. Yeah, that was interesting.

Now for the stuff I actually remember!

Sir Limey Pants can no longer be called that. In fact, it's true what he said about not being gay.

He asked me out during Math class. While we were having a test. It's first period. Evidently, I wasn't expecting it at all. In fact, I wasn't even paying attention to him. So I said 'maybe.'

I think I'll go douse myself in water to cool off my feverish melon.

I should have thought this through. Now I'm entering a Wisconsin winter with self-inflicted hypothermia. At least now I don't have to deal with a certain(not) limey bastard.

JK. Drat.

Anyway, despite my bizarrely non-limey morning, at my after school picnic, Twins, TWWOTF, Penguin, Bonita, and I were all huddling against the cold, like, as Penguin would say, penguins.

A sudden blast of wind came along and drove all of our skirts crazy. Only Penguin and I didn't mind, we just laughed and shouted, "Down, Skirty, down!"

The Insane Trio has a new song entirely dedicated to this incident.

Sayonara!

A Severe Lack of Dry Pants.

I think the title can explain pretty thoroughly why I have been unable to post for like, ever. NO, I'm not serious. The title is a joke.

I haven't posted because I don't have the time.

My birthday party is tomorrow. I have invited Spoilsport, Penguin, Kitty and TWWOTF. Yes, it's small. But that's because I have a lot of cramming to do before I turn thirteen.

I have not yet tried the diet coke and mentos experiment. I have not yet done the Gertrude Dance under the moonlight. I have not yet held a TWAH (I'll tell you that after the party) ceremony.

I have started working on my new story, though. I don't know what I'll call it yet, but here's two of the characters, the ones that are focused on in the first book.

First off, this is about another country in another world, and how the capital city of that country makes everyone else suffer. There are twelve main characters, and each one gets half of a book to themselves over the course of six books, and the seventh switches off between each of them. These twelve were predicted to become the ones who would save the country from the brutal capital.

Kae of Tii; From the capital herself, it was known from a young age that she was not quite normal. She only eats what she needs, no more, and has no taste for the processed yet exquisite delicacies that are developed in Tii. The daughter of the president of the nation, she has one friend, Lily of Tii, who harbors the same hatred of Tii, but masks it much better. Lily means a lot to her. The night before she turns fourteen (which is supposedly the most important age to a girl of this country, like our thirteen or sixteen), she runs away from her home city, and flees south to try and help the impoverished city of Aire find a way to rise against Tii. Born on November 28th.

Cla of Aire; From the most impoverished and criminally active city in this nation, Cla has a hatred of Tii that goes much deeper than anyone else's; When she was eight, she was mugged by fellow Aires for a snapper that she had very luckily caught(as Aire is a city of fishmongers and traders). When her first and only sign of help comes in the form of a visiting Tii girl, she begs for help, because she knows she will die if left untreated. The Tii girl freezes in place until her father shows up and kicks Cla in the face. What hurts the most to Cla is the fact that she could see that the Tii girl had wanted to help her, but had allowed her father to hurt Cla further. She ended up saved by a boy from the neighboring city of Ra, which is the the most intelligent city in the nation, who was able to perform emergency surgery and then bfriend Cla while she was recovering. Cla later vowed to kill the Tii girl that she met that day, who is later revealed to be Kae. Born on May 26th.

Scary, huh? Cla befriends Kae later, but never forgets that incident. Will she carry out her vow or give into friendship? The world may never know...

Sayonara!
