Taking a breather.

So, I'm thinking about taking a "sick day", or as others refer to it, a "mental health day."
I really just need to take a breather.
Actually, I needed one of these days a LONG time ago, but didn't.
Of course, I'll probably still be in school tomorrow, but right now I feel like ranting about everybody and everything.
I won't...but I feel like it.


Ugh. Stupid Word.


Loving Prince Harry, because Will's going to be taken soon :P

Hey people.
I have a headache...again...
I really hate this!
Geometry today was time consuming.
SRT was GREATTTT!
World History was boring.
Now I'm in Intro with a headache.

I don't like this.
But whateverrrrrrrrrrr.

Josh gave me some goldfish at lunch today, which was good. Actually, Leanne stole them from him, but it all worked out haha.

I'm going to the library after play practice today with my friend. Then I have to read 2 more chapters of To Kill a Mockingbird by 12:30 tomorrow.........I can do this.

...maybe...

Why is today so boring?

Today i had Geometry. I spent 80 minutes on just the first half of the homework. That was literally my SRT...just doing homework.
Then I had lunch. And Josh had goldfish but wouldn't let me have them.
I was really sad.
Then I went to World History.........
SO BORING IT'S OBNOXIOUS.
Then we found out that we DO have to make up that day from the power outage.......REALLY!?!

And now I'm in Intro just kind of chilling and typing and not wanting to read and dealing with my headache and wishing we didn't have school tomorrow and listening to keyboards type.

Oh, well I guess I'm done now.

Happy Easter to those of you who Care!

I know that title was a bit odd, but I know that some people my age would be offended and all like "how dare you assume that I believe in God and Jesus rising from the dead!"
So yeah, Happy Easter if you care.


So at 10:30 last night I decided to dye Easter eggs with my mom...just because.
She hard-boiled 6 eggs, but broke 3 before I even touched them. So here's the pretty ones I took care of:

Easter Eggs!

Then this morning I woke up to my mom slamming windows and yelling at this rabbit digging a hole in our backyard. I came downstairs when I heard her stop, and I found her by the window talking to the rabbit because it came to the window "to talk to her" 
It went away....AND CAME BACK!
So we determined that it was the new Easter Bunny.
Here's a REALLY bad picture of it--I took it with my phone, and it's got some bad quality.

The new Easter Bunny

So yeah, I just thought I'd share that with you all!

At my grandma's house, I played with my insane 6 year old cousin. My grandma got both of us these giant bubble wands and we blew bubbles for like 20 minutes. I wish I had some pictures of that because that would have made for a good photo opp, but I didn't have my camera with me :(

So yeah,

Happy Family Day/Easter!

Loving bubbles,

SHATTERED GLASS!

So today was a great day. 
Actually, today only had 2 good parts.


Anyways, 
My mom and I were at Jewel and we just happened to go down past the "great hit movies" that usually aren't anything normal people have ever heard of.
The second I looked at the rack I saw it:
Shattered Glass


I literally screamed and grabbed the $4.99 DVD and threw it in the cart.
My mom was quite confused, but I didn't care.


Then I got home and watched the movie.
Actually, I watched Jesus Christ Superstar (by force) with my mom, who was totally jamming out while I sat there like "what is this...hippies retelling the Passion...ok?
THEN I watched Shattered Glass.
I love that movie!
After the last time I had seen it, I decided that I would sit and keep tally of how many times that idiot Stephen Glass repeated himself.
"I'm not. It's probably nothing.": 3 times
"Are you mad at me?": surprisingly, only 3 times
"I didn't do anything wrong Chuck!": 4 times in 1 conversation. 
About halfway through, I realized that I probably should have counted "I'm sorry" and him saying Chuck's name alone...that would've been a more interesting tally.


But for now, I must sleep, after getting 12 hours and later taking a 2 hour nap.
I enjoy sleep :)

10:47 PM

Well I guess the time I start this will be the title from now on.
It seems like I do my best deep thinking before bed, and I also feel the need to share my brilliant thinking with the world....or at least the maybe 4 people who actually read this blog.


So deep thought of recently, but mainly the last 10 minutes:
I am a hypocrite.


I tell people so many things...I wouldn't say advice really, but just things similar to advice....but I can't even listen to what I tell other people.
It's not good.


I guess in this case, along with the fact that tomorrow is a blue day, I'll have to just grin and bear it.


Loving my deep thought,

No school?

Ok. 
So I woke up on time today. And the phone rings.
My mom was like, still asleep then is like "you don't have school today."
WHAT.
REALLY.
UGH.
Now we have to make up ANOTHER day (so help me, we better not have to. It's not our fault the school is incapable of having us AND its only the high school, noone else)
And if the seniors don't have to make this up and we do, I will be one ANGRY camper. 
ANGRY.
So yeah......
-end rant-

11:00 PM

Indeed, it is currently 11 PM that I am starting to write this post.
Based on a conversation today and the fact that I don't want to go to bed, I decided to write this.


So in my life, there's a lot of movies that I haven't seen. 
This pretty much explains the lack of movies. Although there are some more movies that need to be added to the list that I have seen, but not many famously important movies.


So here's the list of some common places I've never been to: 


-Wisconsin Dells
-Disney World
-Any state other than IN, IL, WI, MI, or VA. (Yeah, Virgina's randomly there for Washington DC)
-Olive Garden 
-Buffalo Wild Wings
-Jimmy John's
-Indianapolis Children's Museum (supposedly the best?)
-IKEA
-WALMART......ok I've actually been there twice. But twice for Walmart...I mean that's good enough as never.


But after all, this is from the kid that hadn't been to Navy Pier, The Museum of Science and Industry, or the Shedd Aquarium until last year.


And I mean obviously I haven't been everywhere on Earth, but those are the big ones that I felt everybody on Earth besides me had been to. 


Ok so it's 11:16 now, so I suppose I ought to actually go to sleep...I have a nice, big Biology test tomorrow :(

Eye Doctor

So today, in an effort to track down the source of my headaches, I went to the eye doctor.
It has seriously been YEARS since I last saw the guy. So it wasn't like he remembered ever seeing me. Or maybe he never did...who knows?


So they checked my peripherals first. Perfect.
Depth Perception. Perfect............how that happened I don't know.


And basically it came out that I have great vision,
which is kind of hard to believe considering EVERYBODY on my mom's side of the family has glasses. Like, EVERYBODY.


Then the doctor checked my eyes for like cuts on the retina or freckles--yeah--apparently you can have freckles on your eyeballs.


He dilated my eyes. It was all ok until we went outside.
I literally thought the sun was going to burn my eyes out.
Then my mom decides "Hey, let's go to Jewel even though you can't focus your eyes on anything!" 
Thanks mom. 
But I DID get ice cream out of it, which I suppose is good :)


So really, all that happened today was paying $84 to have someone tell me that my eyes look great and then make them all suckish for 3 hours afterwards. 


And my headache mystery remains unsolved.
Yay.


Loving the sneak peek at the next issue of Scout (my god, whoever had the idea for that cover story is a great person),

10:23 PM

Ok, I'm really bored right now, so bear with me.
I just felt the sudden need to blog. But there's really nothing to blog about.
Wait. I've got something. 
I enjoy criticizing things, I don't know why.
I feel like that could be my calling.....
Anyways, the school shootings in Brazil...?
What!?!? 
WHY would anybody go to an ELEMENTARY school and just randomly open fire?!?
Ok, this guy killed himself in the end. He had AIDS and I suppose I can understand him wanting to kill himself. But why the heck is it necessary to take down 12 kids with him?? KIDS!!!
It sickens me. Here's my source before you all think I'm making this up: The article that says it all.

Oh, and even better....the Associated Press wrote this.
Of course that reminds me of that class that I continuously go to where I'm told that newspapers are dying and and journalism has no job security and blah blah blah. 
It's getting annoying.


--End rant--


Ok. So I'm going to Indianapolis on Sunday for a bowling tournament. 
I just cleaned my bowling balls tonight...I'm not sure I did it exactly the right way, but it should help. Because I have SUCKED lately. 
But I need to do well in this tournament.
Just to prove to all the nonbelievers that I am, in fact, a good(ish) bowler. 


--Just kidding...here's where the rant ends--


Well. Now it's 10:44 PM.
That took me a long time to write...


Loving that 2-hour delay we had today,

Today is Monday

I wasn't in my usual Monday daze today. But I still don't like Mondays.

As a matter of fact, I just want school to be over with.

I want to go to a Sox game.

I want the next 84 days to go by faster so I can go to Notre Dame.

I want to know what college to go to. 

I want my driver's license.

I want my pilot's license. 

I want a tattoo of a phrase Apolo Ohno says (not a name...Wad)\

I want tumblr to be unblocked by the school.

I want yesterday's weather to be everyday's weather. 

I want to skip to next year.

I want to NOT come up with a yearbook theme by myself. 

I want to go flying in my cousin's Citabria airplane.

I want the school year to be over.

Loving school...
