Pip is in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Hee hee, look! It's April Fool's! HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY! [points to date]
...Again! Yay, that was my official prank.
Pip is probably supposed to be working at 12:58 a.m. on Friday, April 1, 2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pip is on Tokyo time AND France time in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Yeah, Tokyo time and France time. Two different time zones at once! So you can bet my sleep schedule is painfully odd.
Jeeeeez, that thing by David is good. Seriously, I think he may be a prodigy, that is so incredible. Reminds me of Shel Silverstein [sp?]. Wish I could write even close to that well.
^__^ Hee, I'm glad he liked the letter. Yay! He decided to do homework. Man, we gotta send him letters 24/7 or something. I got a postcard he sent over break today, that was great. It seriously brightens up your day, y'know? Getting mail from people. Well, see, I NEVER get any mail, since everyone I know could either call or use AIM or just talk to me at school and all the far away people and I drift, so mail is like my highlight for the year.
o.0 Okay, Mormon-ness is kinda weird, but that's cool. I don't really know either religion that well, so whatever.
Archiving's okay, I suppose the page is getting crowded.
This dratted thing won't do the table thing where the words rearrange to fit the page when you change the size of the ...box/screen.
*Wince* My regards on the physics test. We haven't gotten ours back yet, slow grader that Mr. White is. He was lazying around over break; I bet he didn't even glance at the tests. If you want, maybe we can study together for the next test. Like, actually study, not 'go to Burger Continental and procrastinate' study.
Ooooh! I got the SPIFFIEST white trenchcoat over break, we MUST find time to go to Lake and be trenchcoat-ness. You can borrow my pidgeon one and we'll all look posse-ish. How we'll possibly work around rehearsal and Joyce's practice, I have no idea.
*whew* that was a lot, and I still have sooooo much stuff to do. Lazy bum that I am ^^;;;; better start hw...

Man, I failed my physics test. D+. Mom's going to KILL me. I'm already getting a C in physics...I need to see if I can make it up or something...I'm so screwed.

yayayayayay! You're back, yay! Keegan LOVED the card you sent him. He got it when he got back from Austria, and he's SO happy he got that. He seriously filled up the screen with "LOL" and "LMAO" a billion times over. It was so great. And he's thinking of becoming a Mormon! I think that's odd, since he's Methodist right now, but whatever floats his boat. He's much happier with the prospect too. I asked him how he was, and he said, "GREAT!" And he said he's actually going to do his homework now!
There's something David wrote which is awesome! Actually, two things. They are up on his xanga, but I'll post them here so you won't have to bother finding it.
***It all happened one day at a crazyass school
Where no one is normal and orange is cool
A few lazy freshmen walked late into class
But their good buddy Schafer just let them all pass
So the day started slow with no headshots at all
And the graceful gazelle was still without a fall
The day just rolled on with no ring of a bell
Still the day had not yet turned into living hell
Some went to Melgoza and thought it obscene
For Derek was thought to be high on caffeine
And still others went on, (not mentioned above),
Who’d rather play dodgeball than talk about “love”
Though still uneventful something was amiss
For the Great Benjamón took no part in this
He was not to be found this particular hour
His absence was caused by some unknown power
Yet students went on while falsely secure
Thinking “Benji’s just sick, of that I am sure”
So passed morning meeting and then on to “C”
To which very few freshmen looked forward with glee
There were those who were graphing a strange cosine function
Where the teacher and knowledge had no such conjunction
Yes the menacing Trotter was never at rest
From keeping the students from doing their best
Still a much greater fear gripped those with Holmgrenade
Like a victim of hell whose soul had been flayed
For the terrible joy of this English class
Was to many young freshmen a pain in the ass
Yet all of this torture was just commonplace
The real adventure they had yet to face
At five after eleven the chaos began
It was at this time to school that Benji had ran
He yelled to the mass “The Oysters are coming!
They’ve followed me here after wrecking my plumbing
Please listen you fools when I tell you to flee
For those bastard sea minions are not just after me”
Yet the crowd gave no mind to this crazy boy’s story
And waited around for the scene to get gory
And soon came the oysters in a menacing flood
Though they all looked so frail they cried out for blood
So the whole student body knew not what to do
Not one could stand up, not even the Jew
Only one had the knowledge to stop this invasion
The most crazy of all and yet only Caucasian
Yes Benji he knew the path to success
But had not the resource, well that is unless
He could find a brave soul to help move a box
Which contained the raw substance of sour poprocks
So all through the school he wandered alone
‘til he wandered upon the great fool Dave Leon
They avoided the oysters with all their mad skill
And found some spare poprocks with which they could kill
For those handicapped sea dudes no longer had strength
When faced with some poprocks no matter their length
So the two fought them off with all of their might
And this two man team soon saw victory in sight
And once they had left the school all cheered
For Benji and David whom they thought were weird
Yet not all was well in great physics land
For it was Ms. Bush who raised up her hand
Saying “Where is my Jack? He’s been taken away
I must have him back or those oysters I’ll slay
So swiftly I’ll run and along with my mass
Momentum will bring this crisis to pass
I’ll knock them all out with such a great charge
Their electric potential will no longer be large
So I shall now leave to save little Jack
And once he is free I’ll accelerate back”
So a small little group went after the clan
Of oysters who’d stolen the best friend of man
Yes the little dog Jack would soon be returned
For Ms. Bush and her students won a battle well earned
Now the oysters were gone and the day would soon end
Leaving students in awe of this strange new trend
They’d all now remember that this was the day
When Benji and David chased the oysters away
It all happened one day at a crazyass school
Where no one is normal and orange is cool
The oysters all came but did not succeed
When the flock was pizzowned for their devious deed
‘Twas the night before Holmgren and all through the house
Only one was awake and it was not the mouse
For the mouse has no worries and its only big fear
Is to be eaten or slaughtered or cut off from its rear
Yet the one who was stirring was in far greater danger
To the students of Holmgren short life was no stranger
So the torture continued as the hours passed on
Soon these young little freshmen saw the horror of dawn
For dawn led to school and school led to class
And in very short time into English they’d pass
Where they’d all say their prayers and hope to survive
And with Holmgren’s permission they’d come out alive
Upon entrance into this language abyss
One’s only emotion is the inverse of bliss
For even reading a scene from Shakespeare’s Macbeth
Can become far more painful than a horrible death
Why, just the mere thought of getting there late
Could leave one to suffer in a miserable state
And the daily call out for participation
Always would lead to great deals of frustration
While bringing their work was required each day
One day of no book sent good grades on their way
And the far greater sin of telling a lie
Meant that even more points would be saying bye-bye
But the best of the class is still yet to come
For one cannot afford to be thought of as dumb
Yes, those sick class discussions were always so ruthless
And the freshmen all sounded as if they were toothless
For omnipotent Holmgren put fear in their voice
And made them use words not of their own choice
And the depth she required in every small notion
Quite easily rivaled the depth of the ocean
Though these long lovely chats were far worse than being shot
Being the worst part of class they most clearly are not
For even more dire than this internal strife
Was the thought of timed essays and the end of their life
Those short fifty minutes were always pure hell
While a strong thought out point they attempted to sell
But time always ran out before they were done
Meaning all lights went out including the sun
Yet this day was strange for never before
Had someone been so late to step onto the floor
Although a timed essay would plague them today
“David’s not here” the great Holmgren would say
For some unknown reason the fool was late
And this terrible action made Holmgren irate
This boy had been missing all throughout lunch
And Holmgren decided this boy she would crunch
A little while after he entered with a smile
That soon turned to shock in a very short while
At the sight of the class all ready to go
His previous joy turned colder than snow
And just at that moment from out of the sky
Came the bananas of doom with a devilish cry
They were all little minions under Holmgren’s control
And around the small classroom they began to roll
Chasing young Leon around the small school
Those evil bananas made him look like a fool
But now it was time for the nightmare to end
Or else down into hell this boy they would send
And all of a sudden he woke from his sleep
For it was only a dream of a slumber so deep
And found he was up still not done with his work
For the next day into English class he would lurk
And without this long paper his grade would just die
So of to the homework he went with a sigh
Yes this night before Holmgren was always the same
For the art of survival is no longer a game
This story is weird, and I swear I’m not making it up. One day while some random family member was trying to turn on the dining room light, they accidentally flipped some switch that didn’t let the light go back on. We tried switching it back, but the light remained off. Then we tried switching the bulb, but no success. No matter what we did, nothing worked. So finally we had to buy a whole new light fixture, but the weirdest happened next. After the new light was in, we were satisfied and had it on one evening. Then, my dad tried to log onto the internet, and it didn’t work. He tried again a few times, but still nothing. Then someone turned off the light and it finally worked. We didn’t know why, but it just worked that way. For a while after that whenever someone needed the internet they’d have to say “I need to get online, turn off the light”. After a month or two that ended, but to this day I still don’t know what the hell is wrong with my house.***
All the stuff in the stars is from David's Xanga. I assume he'll add more as the year goes on. It's quite amusing, really.
Ness, after your next post I'm going to archive these posts if it's okay with you. Because then it won't be so dratted long.

And with that, I sleep. My legs are in serious pain-ness from sitting still for 11 hours in that bloody plane. Thank my deity English isn't until Tuesday...
I'll post something more interesting later; I just thought I'd let you know that I survived the treacheries of insert-random-country. Oh, and I brought you lots o' post cards, since you want to make that collage and all. It was fun; I never get a chance to buy postcards cuz there's no one to give 'em to.

No San Francisco trip, sadly. Mom says I'm too sick, and Dad agrees. I'm extremely disappointed...
How's France? It's so boring here. I oughta be working on school stuff, but I think I'm going to procrastinate and just feel really overworked later. This cough is KILLING me, I swear.
I can't think of an un-mean April Fool's joke to pull on you so...
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!

I miss you, Ness! Life kinda sucks here without you...it's so boring.
I went over to Joyce's yesterday at about four, just got back at 9 tonight. I had a lot of fun! Jen came over and slept with us, and I woke them both up with a fit of coughing at about 6 am. Then we went back to sleep...ahhh. Beauteous sleep. Jen went home at 8-ish because she had badminton practice at 9, and Joyce and I lazed around until about 11. We then went to an Asian restaurant (so much Asian food! and so not hungry, cause I'm freakin sick! ahhh!), I tried boba, and then we went to the Arcadia mall. Tina and Kaley were supposed to meet us there for a movie, but Tina stood us up...she didn't bother telling us her mom said she couldn't come. So Joyce and I wandered around Borders and found a Shel Silverstein collection and just read poems to each other for half an hour.
Then we went back to Joyce's house, lazed, lazed, and lazed some more...and played cards. Henry knows how to play bridge!!! I'm sooooo happy....I swear, he's one of about two in Southern California who knows how to play bridge. Then we played Mau, and Henry threw a fit, then Joyce threw a fit, then we all settled back to watch tv...and dinner came, (lamb chops!) and I went home.
And so much for Annie promising to tell us if there was a social engagement...I know you're in Europe, but she coulda told me THAT THEY WERE GOING TO MAGIC MOUNTAIN IN A DAMN LIMO!!! I hate her...
And we need to watch Joyce. She's threatening to pick a fight with Tina and break the friendship with her.
Spiff. I redid the layout. It's the exact same thing it was before, but the line's back, and the links have gone weird on me again. When you type a link into the entries, it alternates being underlined and having a box. Weird, no? I kinda like it, let me know if you hate it.

*bounce bounce* I went skiing with Joyce today!!!! It was so much fun! The snow was perfect, it was a nice day....ahhh. Be warned, Joyce is going to tell you I ran into a tree...very true. Course, she also wiped out pretty nicely...hahaha. She did a couple face plants, her ski went askew when it hit a huge chunk of ice and she twisted her bad knee (yikes!), and managed to wrench her back on another serious wipeout. *shakes head* It's sooooo Joyce. Wow, sooooooo fun. I fell asleep in the lodge right before lunch--I was tired, so I went inside to take a break until lunch, and I fell asleep on my coats. Nice pillow. Anyways, Dad came in later and Joyce came in and said she'd already eaten. We had to split the last hamburger three ways, haha. Wow, extremely fun. Happy vacationing in France/Belgium!

The password was the same as this one, but all lower case. And click on the Photobucket link to get there...sorenatorsix is the sn.
She wouldn't tell me until after school, and believe me, if I EVER catch her or anyone with that shit again, I'm so going to kill her. And because I'm going over to her house tomorrow, I'm going to ask her whether she threw it away. If she didn't...then I'm so going to kick her sorry ass. Don't ask me where she got it...if I bring it up again she's so going to kill me, so I only dare do it once. (Like I said, screwed up family...)
You wanna help me pronounce it? MY UN-LANGUAGE SKILLS ARE AT WORK HERE!!! I suck so horribly at languages...
Research paper due 7th, at least, not the 4th. Thursday, not Monday. So you'll live.
OO OO OO I wanna goooooooo! I'll stow away in your luggage some year, just you watch. I'll pop out while you're in Paris and yell, "SURPRISE!"
Poly's a nerd school, what did you expect when you came here?! The whole my-car-is-better-than-your-car teen arguments and crap?!

o.0 Wait, THAT'S what she had in there?! She told me to hold it that tiny little water balloon while she changed for softball. I was wise and didn't ask. Kick her ass for me, would you? And where the fuck did she get it in the first place?...and why? Godot...[theatre history reference!]
How do you...not be able to pronounce jieh jieh? You should learn bopomofo[making up the spelling as we go...] to at least learn pronunciation first.
Oi...Physics homework....English homework....[dundunDUNNN!] I cannot believe the research paper is due over spring break. T_T Cruel and unusual. [violation of our 8th amendment rights!]
I wish I could bring one of you peoples with me on these insert-random-country trips. It's just not as cool when all you've got is your parents. One of these days we'll have some posse trip to farfaraway and we'll go see the biggest ball of yarn or something and dare Joyce to poke it. ^_^
Saw the Einstein exhibit at Skirball [seriously, what poor schmuck was named Skirball?] on Sunday! It was cool, cause Jen and I just spent the time laughing at each other obsessively. As we predicted. I just wish we'd stoppped for food. Mr. White wanted to go to In-N-Out, but I think we didn't have time. Real shame. My head is spinning from the stuff Eintstein discovered. I still don't understand this silly lack-of-relativity [what he really should have called his theory] theory. You know there was some experiment something where they stuck a clock in this uber fast airplane, and another clock just sitting there on the ground, and they sent the clock in the plane around the earth uber fast a couple times, and when they got back and compared the clocks, one of them was off? @.@ Yeah, it bugged me a lot. Then Charlie and Jen and I discussed how our class is so nerdy our idea of a good time is to go out on a Sunday afternoon to a science exhibit with our physics teachers. We're going to be one of those senior classes where everyone does a big community service project, and we all get into Harvard and Yale and Stanford....
The funniest quote in this book there at the museum!gift shop:
"The Lord God is subtle, but he is not malicious."..........
"I have second thoughts. Maybe God is malicious."
Jen and I could not stop laughing at that...Einstein's so weird. And Ms. Bush bought all this stuff at the gift shop to show her physics nerd pride. XD I wrote in their 'put comments about this exhibit' book:"^__^ Now I know enough to show off my true nerdship! Hardcore physics geek!"

Jieh jieh is SO hard to pronounce....MAN. I really need to practice with Jen, I didn't practice at all today. I know guh guh, mei mei, ba ba, jieh jieh and the sound for tall. I really want to learn more...I'll poke Jen tomorrow and ask how to say a bunch of things.
Bring a little white chocolate...
You know what kinda makes me mad? Joyce was carrying around GHB today at school (date rape drug!). In a little green water balloon. She said it was VERY low density or something, so it wasn't a lot, but still, I don't want to ever see drugs WITH HER. And she better throw it out at home like she said she would...If I catch her with any again, I swear I'm going to kill that girl.
When do you want to do a hyperactive sleepover? I dunno when we can, except for summer...
WHILE cheering for badminton? You know we aren't going to get ANY sutdying done...dang, we have a lot of English homework tonight...she's never going to let up, is she? I'm going to give it up as a lost cause.
Yes, specific clubs are better. We'll work it out sometime...

=D You posted.
Yay for learning Chinese. I should probably learn some health stuff sometime, so I don't die one day from some minor injury just because I didn't know what to do with it. That'd be pretty sad, huh. I know 'older brother' is 'guh guh.' My pronunciation sucks. Well, it's better than most, but those damn accents... And any real Chinese can tell a bad accent anyway.
Wow, a Holmgren quiz that's actually easy? *GaspSHOCK* Awesome, one less thing to give me gray hairs. The Japan test shouldn't be too hard I suppose. I always suck at the writing stuff. I just can't time manage for my life. Plus need to study the map, cause I don't remember a thing.
I probably should go to rehearsals, huh. But I usually have nothing to do. Prop lackeys don't do much. Okay, so I was supposed to make a list of Scene VI-X props, and then I find out they already did the list, then we went looking for props, and we've already got them, and then they go out to rent props, and you know we were rejected. I have so far done, like, no work. Which is nice, but annoying.
;_; This is so effing unfair. You guys are doing all the fun stuff over spring break, demmit! MM, Tina's house, Joyce's house, I hate you all. Yeah, it's France and Belgium. I mean, France is awesome and I'm should be grateful to be able to go and all, but it's just so boring when it's just my parents and I... Anywho, I'll bring you back an uber special prezzie from France to make up for later missing your b-day. Unless you'd rather I bring back some special prezzie from Australia/New Zealand? Ooh, maybe I'll find some Belgium chocolate. Chocolate from Belgium's supposed to be really good, right? Mmmm... Drive Joyce crazy. You guys owe me a hyper-active sleepover sometime after spring break. When I'm actually here. Maybe a three day weekend sometime.
You wanna study for WldCult on Thursday after school? While cheering for badminton? Jennifer won't let me cheer for her, she's too embarrassed. I'll cheer for Darius then, so nyeh.
Yes, "kami" is 'god,' as I said. I'm not sure if it means the word 'god' or if it's the name of the specific god in Shintoism. If you'd read the reprint you'd know this stuff already. Like how it's very similar to the Ainu word "kamui" for their spiritual...thingy. Y'know, it's so sad how much random knowledge I already know of the stuff we're learning from a)basic Asian culture knowledge and b)too much anime/manga! I which Macky were in this class, if only to mock their silly misconceptions and mispronuncations. The umbrellas in the lost-and-found were so cool!
So, next year the candidates are: Origami club, DDR club, or Pocky club. Unless we had a generic miscellaneous Japanese 'stuff' club, or even broader, an 'Asian' club. Though someone else should start it, as it would look odd being started by the big orange banana. I'd rather have a more specific club rather than a broad one. At least DDR, cause it'd be so COOL to have a DDR machine at school. But Tina and I also wanted an origami club. I've been making candy wrapper origami, it's highly entertaining. So if you have extra candy wrappers [i.e. Starburst or any form of Asian candy], I'll be happy to steal them.
It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.

Physics today was so amusing. I told Jen I know how to take care of some health things, like injuries, and she kinda flipped out. So she wants to learn all the health stuff now, and I want to learn a little Chinese, so it's a nice trade off. I've learned "big sister" (jieh jieh), which I'm going to call Joyce, just to bug her (once I get the pronunciation down...). Gonna so die on the test on Thursday...help meeeeeee.
The English test wasn't hard at all, just reread the Act and you'll be PERFECTLY FINE. How hard d'you think the Japan test will be Friday? I'll review that with you tomorrow after school, if we can...wait, not tomorrow...Thursday? Tomorrow I have to attend rehearsal. I mean really GO. I'm to start learning the lightboard, finally.
So Tina's been talking about next week...she wants us to get together on Tuesday, sleep over and go hang out on Wednesday at the mall. Thursday is homework day for me: I'm going to San Francisco. And meanwhile, you'll be in FRANCE, you lucky ducky. It IS France, isn't it?
I found out that "kami" doesn't just mean "god". It also means, "we (exclusive, I and others)" in Tagalog. I was going to change to "Siya", which basically means "he/she". I'll stick with this for now.

Grumph. I'll have to fix the coding some way or other...I'll probly end up taking the layout I stole it from and rearranging it all again. Whatever.
I don't think I'll glomp Joyce just yet. She killed her hamstring, and I don't want her to get overly killed. By the way, I wish I had a camera earlier today when she toppled over the bench. That was FUNNY! Go you!
You'll never guess what I did earlier. I bet Joyce that she couldn't be nice to Tina for a week. So starting tomorrow, Joyce has to be nice to Tina, or no ice cream at the end. She's doing it for free ice cream XD. I'm laughing so hard right now. Tina was like, "YES!!! Thank GOODNESS!" It was so funny.
I don't need the cd back, it's already installed in my computer.
We shall have to talk to Tina SOOOOOON.

My brother's home on spring break. =D kinda sucks though, that he has a different break than me.
Yes, you should glomp Joyce. Though she may do some scary Joyce!move on you, I'd beware. Still, it'd be great. I'd take pictures.
No, no. the bottom border part is still there though, in the coding. all I did was put the same thing in the entry editor, which should not change the overall html at all.
You need to go get your own trenchcoat y'know. Just go to Chinatown or something.
Awww! Joyce being cute with small children! They're so utterly Japanese! [little kid doing classic Japanese 'V' for victory!sign] [poke sooo cute]
I didn't have time to set up the virus protection today, I'll have to give the CD back to you in a few days.
Yes, remember to print out codes!
I'll ask Tina about something to do with Tati an' all on Friday. Cause...she's the only person that's good at organizing these random get-togethers. Not a spontaneous bone in this body!

Oh, and I must print the code out for you guys! Going to do that before I forget...hope you don't mind that there's Daedric mixed in...

Eheh, sorry, the thing with the html was me, I was putting in a border on the entries, which didn't work, by the way. Of course I deleted it, but the computer took exception to this and for some reason it was still there. It's all better now. Except I can't figure out why the bottom border on the headings is gone. Wasn't me! [shifty-eyed]
I'm glad Joyce is back, life was getting boring without her there to...be Joyce. ;_; Should have bugged her to bring back a trenchcoat...

I fiddled with it for about an hour, I don't know why it's displaying like that. It's NOT SUPPOSED TO! If you want to try fiddling, be my guest...but it's REALLY ANNOYING ME! *sigh* I'll work on it later, I've got work to do.

Dang...it looks like something got messed up in the html. I'll have to fiddle with that.
Everyone gets so amused when I curse. Last year in history, I said, "...and all that crap." Sarah B. stared at me and was like, "OMG! Frances cursed!" It was SOOOO funny.
THAT'S SO SAD! It's really really MORBIDLY SAD! But yes, QUITE HYSTERICALLY FUNNY!
Cheers! (We must find some pie!)

Okay, so I'm not really eating pie, nor is it pi time, obviously. But one can imagine. Next year, we are SO having a huge pi celebration with the works. I want a pi shirt so bad. We shall shout our nerdiness and shout it proud!
I LOVE how you worded that. XD. I think that's the first time I've heard you use the term 'bullshit.' Even in writing, that's funny. 'like the way Holmgren tells me my essays are Bs. With a D.' Okay, so that's not really funny, in retrospect, but oh, it is.
Oh, Jennifer and I were giggling madly in the library [poor librarian must have a headache, or at least be highly disturbed by us] about this entry about an artist she was looking up for Visual Arts, and it says he [paraphrased]"met his final misfortune in [place] when he was misstakenly arrested and kept in jail for one night. The next day, he found that the boat that was supposed to be carrying his luggage had left. Chasing after it down the beach, he caught a fever and died three days later. It was later found that his luggage had been at the local customs the whole time."
We were laughing SO hard. Which was horrible, in light of how morbidly sad that was, but it was just so funny and we were so high... Morbid humor is fuuuuun.
HAPPY PI DAY, and many a' happy pi days to come. Cheers.

And Mr. White called him the Wabbit while he was eating broccoli.
Well, there will at least be cake LEFT TO EAT...
Aw man! I want gatherings...they're fun. But let's try to do something this coming Friday or something. I won't be able to come 'till about 6:30 or something, but can we do a movie at your house? Oh DAMN. Guests on Sat morning. I'll see if I can miss 'em.
I just finished editing Bronwyn's essay...man, that took me an hour. Still got Jamie's to do...I'm afraid they aren't great either. Dead brain...dead brain...heaven help us.

XD That's great. I love Mr. White. You should've seen some of his earlier slides, they're fun. He loves making fun of Mr. Fletcher, calling him a Wabbit. He really does look like one, with the mustache and hat and all.
Aw, she'll miss your b-day. Eheh, more cake for us then. xP
Yeah, I really wish spring break started soon. My brother's on spring break right now [stabbystabby]. Except we're going on a trip for spring break. Which is really cool and all, but that means NO relaxation or sleep. Kind of defeats the purpose. And that means no gatherings. T_T

MS AntiSpyware is so much better than Ad Aware. It caught like 8000 signatures of spyware on my computer. And Spybot gets a million and one things. Just...DSO Exploit can't be taken off, so just leave that one if it comes up.
Okay, so she doesn't quite rhapsodize, but she comes pretty close sometimes. And she's going back in June...she's going to miss my birthday party.
I only cut a couple inches off...the church people didn't notice at all, so I don't think anyone at school really will. I can still put it in a ponytail, and it's slightly below my shoulders. I wish it were shorter, but oh well. Too late now.
It was whipped cream! Remember, she had the can of whipped cream and then opened her mouth and sprayed lots in there. It was HIGHLY amusing. And we really must give Tati good karma and happy things to think about. Must must must.
You know something? Mr. White called Mr. Fletcher "the Wabbit". Mr. Fletcher was eating some broccoli or something, and Mr. White got a picture of it and put it in a slide show...

Thanks for all the virus help. We're supposed to get some anti-virus whatever from the company, but it's like a week overdue... I set up Dad's Ad-aware and firewall; He already had them on the comp, just didn't exactly...use them [just double click the little icon!]. But it's kind of too late. It's been finding a million things, but there's still like a million and two viruses.
I never use 'p,' y'know.
She rhapsodizes about it? Um, okay. I haven't heard much of her praise for Taiwan, other than how happy she is that she's going back sometime, like...winter break. Usually she uses it to compare how good we've got it and junk. Whatever. I'm sure everyone yearns for the motherland... It would explain how her family is hardcore Asian attitude, if she's the first immigrant generation. And she lives right between two Asian communities. I know Asians who've lived here for, like, 10-20 years and still know almost no English. [headdesk] They bug me.
Spiff! for your haircut. Can't wait to see. Still long enough for a ponytail? I'm so impatient for my hair to grow out more. Fortunately, it grows pretty damn fast.
Awww, man. That really sucks for Tati. Teen angst prevails again. First signs of highschool are college applications and teen drama. We'll have to go give her a major hug. Maybe next weekend we can have a gathering. Robots is out, we can go see that. and have a marathon of something or other. I'll find some cheezy popcorn ingredients. Remind me to work on setting that up.
Really, if you're going for a relationship, I would personally avoid highschool years at all costs. Everyone's so damn temperamental that lasting longer than a week and they might as well be married. We'll be sending Tati good karma, and maybe a box o' chocolates. [Hey what was that girl eating in Hitch when she was depressed that we thought was just too hilarious?]

Tati's having some problems with Shane...arguments, apparently, and she's really unhappy. She was crying as I talked to her tonight. I'm afraid I wasn't very helpful, me not knowing about this type of thing. So...just to put you on the alert for this, we should probably help Tati and talk to her as much as we can...I dunno what else to do to help her stop feeling like shit.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kami is trying to help fix your computer in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Actually, it didn't die because of spyware...all the files that make our internet work became corrupted. I can give you a few things that help though. I have some blank cds...hmmm. There's a cd our computer guy gave us that has anti-spyware junk on it, I'll give you that. I can probably give you something to delete the viruses with, and I can recommend a good firewall that blocks a lot of junk. I'll try to remember to bring the anti-spyware stuffs on Monday. I'll teach you how to get into safe mode on your dad's computer--it's a better way to delete the viruses and stuff. To get into safe mode: press F8 while the comp is starting up, it'll come to a screen where it gives you a choice about what to start the comp up with: choose Safe Mode. NO EXTRAS, JUST PLAIN SAFE MODE! I can probably ask around for some good anti-virus junk too. I'll give you that cd on Monday.
Some good anti-spyware programs are: Microsoft AntiSpyware Beta, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Ad Aware SE. I can give you MS AntiSpyware and Spybot, and recommend you to a good person, but that's about it. Hmmm, must go find that business card. [edit] Couldn't find the card...but I think I have the email address. kzabbott@earthlink.net. It might be his old one though...I'll let you know when I call him at some point. If you get his number, keep in mind he goes to bed at like 7:30 every night...[/edit]
Glad you like the layout so much! It took me AGES...one layout note: do two "br"s instead of "p". It'll mess up the font if you do "p". And if the writing is getting too long we should probably archive it...maybe we should wait a little longer, but I'm not sure.
I'm SO happy you didn't go to Chandler. Middle school wouldn't have been complete without you there.
As for Joyce...yeah, she lived in Taiwan till she was six or something. And she RHAPSODIZES about it. Literally. She can talk for awhile about how great Taiwan is x_x. And since I haven't been to any Asian countries besides the Philippines, she doesn't rhapsodize to me as much as other Asians who have been to China or Japan or something...
I got a haircut! It's all short and tameable now. So yay.

Yeah, well, her whole family's pretty screwy, it tends to happen. Seriously, they need so much help. Makes me wonder what goes on behind closed doors in her house. Hey, how long did Joyce live in Taiwan before she came here? She did live there, right? or am I mixed up? Somewhere. I wonder just how Asian her Asian parents are...
Yeah, Annie can be a real prat sometimes. Chandler people bug me in general, though, so I'm bias. I'm sooo glad I didn't go there. Too many green jumpers and credo-reciting being stuffed in their heads. They're all...preppy. Whatever. We just had to be like cattle and follow the crowd, didn't we.

They work better than they did before...but if you add a link to the menu, be sure that it doesn't have any spaces if it's longer than the VisualParadox one. Now. Breakfast time.

Wow, I actually got up later than you. ooooo and guess what I found! I actually found a blinkie with my name on it...that NEVER happens. EVER.
No, by drinking I mean he and his friends downed 3 fridges full of alchohol in one night. Sounds like Henry, actually. That whole family's pretty messed up, if you ask me. At least they're all together, not split up.
I'll see what I can do about getting that layout over to ours. D'you mind another dark background? Light ones bug me sooooo much. And yes, I meant it for this blog. I can probably change the font, too...
I don't memorize b-days either, but I talked to Annie last night and she asked if I was going and...well...then when I asked what it was, she immediately said, "nothing." How aggravating!

You know there's something wrong when you wake up at 5 am on a Saturday. But then I fell back asleep and woke up again right now. Poor Tina, she had to wake up at 5 am this morning to go to a softball game [shudder].
Phil Hamilton can't have it anyway, because he sold it and technically right now they're ours to choose who to give them to. So nyeh to him Xp.
Curtis is in college, what can you expect? Everyone in college drinks and/or smokes something. At least drinks anyway. It really depends on how much and how often he drinks and whether or not he becomes a drunk asshole when he does it... I mean, even my brother drinks a little bit, and he's...him.
That layout is spiffy. Minus the HOT MAGENTA. Yup. I swear I've seen that layout before, must be copied from somewhere... I don't really care about a chatterbox...considering we don't plan on telling anyone about this thing, right? Unless you mean for the other blog?
Neeever heard about Julita's what's-it-ma-jigger. Then again, Julita and I are only medium close. It's a mutual feeling. I dunno, when is it? I don't even know when her birthday is. Unlike the rest of the normal Poly community, I don't memorize the whole school's birthdays.
*yawn* It should be illegal to be up this early.

Um, well. I know some because they commented on my xanga before...and I know Curtis's because Joyce came over to my house and checked it while she was here and forgot that history stays a LONG TIME. Curtis is just...WEIRD. Or maybe not weird, just in the wrong crowd. He'd be a great guy if he didn't drink and smoke.
I so DIED on that test...I got something like a 65% on the first part...and I know I did a hell of a lot worse on the second part [sob]
I'm sort of filled in; not as much as I'd like to be, but I'm still filled in. I'll post gossip I think everyone knows...just in case you don't yet know. Like the Kaley-David thingamabobber.
DORKIEST AND BEST PHRASE EVER!!!!!
You know something really weird? I think I know one of Curtis's friends at college...o.0
Wolf is ecstatic about the gun...he said he'd love love love love love love love to use it. And I'm not exaggerating with the number of loves...so spiffy. He'll just have to fight Phil Hamilton for it XD.
Do you like this layout? Without the pink? Because if I tweak it a bit, we could have an awesome site. So d'you think you'd like it in different colors? Our posts would be the same and the chatterbox would be gone, unless you want one. I can probably work that out. Just...let me know... Did you know anything about Julita's b-day? Something @ 4:00?

Um, I suppose it's been more serious...
o.0 Why do you even know all these people's xangas? Ha, Curtis is such a punk. But I do like his white hat. Joyce told me that she didn't sit with anyone, though. She better bring back something cool from her trip. Man, I wish my parents let be skip school to go on a trip. By myself. [gaspshock!] I went to Japan once though, but IN THE SUMMER. So effing humid and nothing but walking up the damn hills. Funstuff. T.T I wanna go in the spring and see cherry!blossoms. Though I doubt Joyce'll see blossoms either, I think they're later in spring, so HAH.
[whimper*sob] I failed that test, I mean actually failed. I only did three out of the four short answer [and at least two of the ones I did put were really crappy], I only got to the first support in my paragraph, and I most definitely missed half of the multiple choice. The problem is, I actually had stuff to say this time [usually I have to make up random things...], just NOT ENOUGH TIIIIIME.
Actually, I'm kind of glad for the timed essay tonight because that guarantees ONLY 50 minutes of homework tonight, plus she doesn't expect it to be perfect or finished or anything.
@.@ Oh! Ohhhhhh! That explains everything. Sorry, yeah, Joyce was teasing Kaley like Hell about something she wouldn't tell me right before she left, and that would fit in with the teasing. But I'm not exactly a filled-in person on the latest gossip, so. Thing about me is, I never get suspicious of things about my friends without them slapping it in my face. *shrug* I know, I put way too much trust in friendship. ^_^ Because...:

It's been more serious than USUAL. That's what I meant to say.
And I dunno why she's been a recluse. Curtis has stopped coming to campus, but maybe if we found out where Henry was picked up I could show you. Apparently Joyce begged a place on this trip and her parents took pity on her. And I think she just wanted to sit with Curtis and didn't bother dragging him over. She also just sits at the lockers doing nothing, too. Just eating alone. I think she's tired of being the center of attention. But w/e. If she doesn't even bring back a postcard, we can all strangle her.
If you want to see what Curtis looks like, go here. It's his xanga...
How'd you do on the Bible test? I FAILED. Miserably. And you know what else? DAMN TIMED ESSAY DUE TOMORROW! THE DAY AFTER A HUGE ENGLISH TEST! [explodes]
I found Kaley at tech and we went out to the front of Garland to wander a bit...well, we ran into David. I meant to show Kaley something at the Middle School, but David came along with us for the ride. And half the time he had his arm around Kaley or something like that. [is slightly suspicious]

^____^ Mmmm... The heater's turned up to like 76 degrees in here. I'm probably wasting a ton of energy though, but...[warm and fuzziness].
Yeah, I heard Mr. and Mrs. Robinson are leaving, that sucks. You know, even though W-T sucks as a teacher, at least she was relatively nice and all [in an annoying kind of way]. I just really hope we don't get some evil witch next year and all regret ever disliking W-T... I hate irony.
Ohhhhhh, [everything dawns], that makes sense. I knew it was insert-random-Asian-country, but I thought she'd be much more spastic if it were Japan. ;_; I could have bugged her to buy spiffy things. Or at least a trenchcoat. Not sure why she's all gung-ho about keeping that a secret, but okay. What is she doing there, it's not a family trip cause Henry's still here, and she's not, like performing or something...?
Really? I haven't even seen Curtis, or his white hat. But I haven't been looking, point him out to me sometime, I don't even know what he looks like. I don't get it, is she being a recluse because she's eating lunch with Curtis or because she doesn't want Curtis to come to us or...?
XP I can't believe she left you in her place. You're not...Joyce-ish enough to do that. o.0? Since when was everything so serious? Though it is less interesting without her here, it's definitely not serious.
Why in insert-deity's name would I be at school at 7:45??? Why would anyone WANT to be there any more than the bare minimum that they make you???
-_-" My first tardy to English...*sigh* I'm not sure if it's my first tardy of the semester. Some teachers count all the random tardies, some don't, I can never tell.
Ummm, David and Kaley? Sure, I guess. Not a significantly larger amount of time...but I don't really have many classes with them. I can never tell, since the Chandler posse clumps to each other regardless. Why, you have *suspicions*? [narrows eyes]

I wish I was at lunch...Jenn made us finish the mind map during lunch. I went hungry that day...
Oh, I know! It's SILENT. It feels like there's no one there to laugh really loudly, crack jokes and overall be COMPLETELY HILARIOUS. Joyce has been a lunch recluse for a while though, prolly because Curtis (!) has been coming to school to see people. Scary brother of hers. Got an even more clueless look than Henry...it's hysterical. Always wears the EXACT SAME WHITE HAT, and is very particular about keeping it clean. Boys. I guessed where she went, but I was told not to say anything. I'll tell you where Jenn said she went...just don't tell a soul and pretend you still don't know. [looks around to make sure no one is listening] She went to Japan. Shhhh! I never said that! And...Joyce still went to Mesopotamia if anyone asks. ^_^
I was supposed to take over for Joyce's leaving...you know, make fun of Annie and Julita and you and all that junk. It's not working out for me, because I'm not being driven crazy either. Everything's so SERIOUS.
Ben's uber laptop was awesome. I saw it in the morning...you are never there early enough. But Ben n
Annie and Derek and Kaley and all them, they get there at about 7:45, so we all talk and hang out. Is it just me, or have David and Kaley been spending a lot of time together?

No math tomorrow, no math tomorrow! [dances merrily]
Where WERE you today? Were you even there at lunch? I saw you in morning meeting, then *poof.*
'Cept we have math on Friday then, very sad. But it's still cool. Soo unfair, D period English get to have NO HOLMGREN AND NO W-T tomorrow.
[._. OI, I forgot to turn in my gradeslip AGAIN.]
You SHOULD have been at lunch. Ben brought his laptop and he and Houdini were bonding over music and junk. Something about his obsession with Sabbath. He has this huge laptop, the screen is ginormous. Anyway, toward the end, Ben was like, I failed the math test so badly. And Houdini is like how could you possibly fail math? And Ben goes, duh, I have W-T. And Annie says that W-T is retiring this year.
Oh my GOD, the explosion was SO EFFING FUNNY. Houdini stares at her for a sec, then stands up on the top of the stairs and goes, 'HALLELUJAH!' [or some variant of such]. And Joe walks by to go into Tech and asks what he's going on about now, and we tell him and they do this happy victory dance right there. I..could not...stop...laughing. XDDDD
On a less cheerful note, I have NO idea what the heck symbolizes Abraham. And I need more characters and key ideas and crap. Going to die. And turnitin.com isn't working, so the discussion board is uselessness. Is the test gonna be like, facts, or analysis timed essay death-ness? ^^ Though I think I did okay on the physics test, which is good. I'm gonna fail math this semester [whimper]. Even when I think I did well, something dies on me. Oh dear, I think I have a C or something equally dire right now.
Advisee was funny, Jackson and I played hangman the whole time and he kept trying to make the missed letters make a word. Like the first one was 'barnyard' and I guessed 'e,i,o', so he made it say 'eieio' with 'barnyard.' XD It was great. And he comes up with the oddest words. Like 'mildew.' o.0 I wonder if F period saw it, we were going for that. Mmmmm, and Kevin brought apple turnovers.
O.O It's so QUIET without Joyce. Though lunch was already quiet since she decided to be a recluse. Math just isn't the same without her there to bicker with Charlie. And to chuck pens at me an' Kaley. Kaley won't tell me where Joyce went. She said she guessed it, and Joyce threatened dire things if she told. Apparently a shark is a clue. And, uh, Mesopotamia... I highly doubt she went somewhere European, probably went to insert-random-Asian-country. I dunno, Taiwan? Though I think she'd be a lot more happy-hyper-er if she were going there. Unless she stayed in the states, which she could've.

Yaaaay! for your internet being reincarnated!
Yesterday we SO AWESOME. I kept singing the Monty Python themes all night.
We're Knights of the Round Table,
We dance whene'er we're able,
We do routines and chorus scenes,
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot,
We eat ham and jam and Spam a lot.
We're Knights of the Round Table,
Our shows are formidable,
But many times, we're given rhymes,
That are quite unsingable.
We're opera mad in Camelot,
We sing from the diaphragm a lot.
In war we're tough and able,
Quite indefatigable,
Between our quests we sequin vests,
And impersonate Clark Gable.
It's a busy life in Camelot,
I have to push the pram a lot.
And Hitch ROCKED. So nyeah on the Chandler posse.

T_T We have soooo many tests this week. Going to DIE. Fry me up and serve me on a platter.
Monday: World Cultures Test & Theatre History Test
Tuesday: Physics Test
Thursday: Spanish quiz, but we have those every Thursday. Still sucks.
I'm not sure if our English Genesis test is on Tuesday or Thursday, but either way ish scary.
Thank deities that we had the math test LAST week. Though I probably failed. I'm dying in math this year. Pretty sad, considering it used to be my easiest subject. I blame society!
*SIGH* So many tests to fail, so little time. Plus the Abraham mind map which is due I don't know when. And I still haven't annotated Genesis. I'm debating between being glad she doesn't collect them anymore this semester and being sad because those were some of the easier points to get, other than maybe vocab cards. Though I doubt the test is open note anyway, right? Wait, no, it might be. Damn. I need to reread. A LOT.
Oh yayfuls, I have a Spanish composition and a Physics review packet.
You know, I STILL haven't turned in my grade slip. I mean, it's not worth any points anyway since I forgot it the first day, then I forgot the second day. Then she didn't even mention them the other days, so I had it but didn't give it to her, then there was a sub and I couldn't turn it in then. Kinda sucks. I should still turn it in though, right? I dunno if she still cares... She's gonna eat me.

Yesh. Very sad. Posting this during arts and labs...and yes, very bored. Done science. uh. Should've done Western Music...darn, we get out at 2:20 today. That SUCKS. No french homework [dances].
Rain is fun. I like rain a lot. But this much rain is annoying.
How'd you like the hoojamacallums? The improv people? They were kinda funny, but I've seen it all before. I overheard some of the more experienced actors saying, "They were terrible. They paused SOOOOO much." But the Irish accent was amusing...

Woke up at 11pm again! I think I have perfected my internal clock.
Oooh, oooh! ^_^ My friends and I used to say:
"The voices in my head don't like you."
"Yeah, well the voices in my head tell me to hurt your head!"
Personally, I think mine is a better quote.
If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style was on the Muse magazine one too... Oh! You know, I have that font. It's fun to write in for web stuff, kinda useless for everything else.
[blinks] This person has a friend named Xtina!
I know it was a long post, but I'm used to posting that long on other blogs, long ones are more interesting, more to respond to.
Anyway, 3-5 tomorrow, okiedokie. [salutes]

Geez. That was a LONG POST.
When I said red, I meant to wear to Tina's quincenera...I didn't know if red was an okay color...
Regular rehearsals technically don't start until late March/early April, but since all the other prop techies have come in, I think it would be a good idea to assist them. Besides, we got almost nothing done today...we just played around with regular paint, string, spraypaint, luon, and the glue gun. So if we don't work, it'll be fun. The musical rehearsal is before the talent show rehearsal. Musical: 3-5, Talent show: 5:30-7ish, then I go off to see "Trojan Women" at Sacred Heart...I'm going to just go to sleep, neh?
I do adjust the font to fit each background, in the way of color. Um, if you want to use it, upload it to the photobucket account. I'll check it now...
And yes. It is a walrus.
Maybe we can find something from Visual Paradox? Or Boyis? I dunno. Just...if you like something, mention it, link to it, or load it.

Hey, you want to use the badtz maru penguin bitchslap thingy for the background? Or one of the spiffy killjoy no self esteem posters? MUST learn to make a table-ma-bob, cause adjusting the font to fit each different background is annoying. Though I personally don't mind reading in white font.
Man, that was a long post [not this one the one I just posted two minutes ago].
Pip is probably supposed to be working at 12:36 a.m. on Wednesday, March 2, 2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pip is bubbly in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Second time now I've woken up at 11pm. Oh well, I suppose that means more sleep for me. Except, yeah, I slept through dinner again.
Yay, a fellow muffin lover. You've watched all the muffinfilms, right? Haven't watched them in forever... I suppose you're just not nerdy enough to like the hydrogen atom joke. Though I was probably high when I first heard it. Plus you hate physics. ¬_¬"
Yeah, this was a pretty bad weekend in general. I blame the stress of the all-the-classes-every-day week. Real shame, since Tina's party was on it and oh shit I think I forgot to wish Laurie a happy birthday. *SIGH* I tried to, I mean, but Asian grandparents have issues with the phone and I forgot to try to call again. *sighagain* Yeah, the fight with parentals really sucked, more than usual I mean. I wanted to throw up afterward, but that could have been cause of my Mongolian Death Flu, or because I was dehydrated as Hell, either one and all of them.
Joyce isn't really mad at me, or at least didn't give off any signs. I wasn't really paying attention to her reactions to Kaley/Annie, but nyeh. She did seem to ignore Kaley more than usual, I suppose...
Yeah, Ipswitch paper was funstuff, I started at, I dunno...2am? and actually writing at 4am or so. Which means I barely finished Spanish homework in the car. And not even starting Theatre History [the one time we actually have hw], Math [agh, she's collecting the homework a lot more often now], [thank deity no English on Monday], physics [didn't collect it!]. Which in retrospect isn't too bad. but still, not one of my top ten days.
Did you want me to go to Wednesday or Thursday rehearsal with you? Which days are talent show rehearsal vs. musical rehearsal? @.@ [lost] Musical rehearsals have officially started and stuff right? Should I just come, like...every day or something? Cause daddy dearest ought to know... I probably won't come on Wednesday though, since that's most-homework-of-the-week day.
Reminding self [not you] to give back Tina's sweatshirt. eheh. I warned her that I'd just keep it.
Aw man another meeting with Holmgren? Like those conferences with her or another of those pull-up-your-English-grade-or-feel-my-wrath meetings? My regards, anyway, to your Thursday.
[headdesk] I was going to say something about today, but I forgot, demmit! ;_; Alzheimer's, man...
Ohhh yeah! Badminton game rocked. I only got to stay through one game though, and I didn't really get to see Jennifer's game cause they were on the other side of the gym and I didn't want to sit with the opposing team, so I watched Collette [sp?] and John's match. I felt bad since I told her I came to watch her, and I...didn't. still sooo cool though!
I feel really bad though cause I haven't gone on AIM in two weeks or so. Everyone thinks I abandoned them. I hope Keegan doesn't get all mopey that I've abandoned him. I haven't! These are just my vain attempts at giving up aspects of the computer in favor of homework. Plus I'm kind of...alseep all afternoon. So, yeah, just so you/him don't feel Nessa-less. Tell him I'm sorry and stuff. Though I know you guys already know that, just so you know I mean it for the long term. And he'll get some silly idea in his head that we don't love him [I haven't talked to anyone on IM in two weeks! not once!], you know he will. Cause you two are so SILLY like that!
Sorry. Anyway, you mentioned red? You mean, as a font? Cause reading in red is really bad for your eyes. that's why teachers try to use green and blue instead these days. It buuuuuurrns!
Heehee, I'm high. and...hungry! [bubbly] Mommy got Ramune! pretty colored Ramune!

Man, I LOVE the muffin joke. You aren't the only one who finds it funny. The hydrogen atom one is pretty funny too. Is it just me, or is everyone fighting? Joyce is kinda mad at everyone at the moment (more than usual), Joyce is REALLY mad at Kaley and Annie, Kaley had a fight with her parents/got in trouble this weekend too. As for the Ipswitch paper, it was about 8 Sunday night when I realized I hadn't started researching... Thursday is so going to suck. I go to school, have half an hour, then a meeting with Holmgren, then rehearsal, then half an hour, then rehearsal for talent show teching, then half an hour, then a play at Sacred Heart. Dude, I'm screwed on Thursday.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pip is procrastinating, again, in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
And I just changed the title cause I was bored. If you don't get it, it's referring to the NERD joke:
"So two hydrogen atoms walk into a cafe. The first hydrogen atom says, 'I think I've lost my electron.'
The second asks, 'Are you sure?'
The first replies, 'Yes, I'm positive...'"
Which is just so nerdy it's funny. Okay, I'm sure I find it a lot more hilarious that it's supposed to be, but nyeh. And it refers to us as the two atoms, cause, yeah, there's two of us. "Two Muffins in an Oven" also works, cause thinking of yourself of a muffin is more amusing than as a hydrogen atom, but seeing as I'm the only person that actually seriously finds that joke funny and not just idiotic...
"So there're two muffins in an oven. One muffin says to the other, 'Whew! It's hot in here!'
And the other muffin says, 'Oh my God, a talking muffin!'"
I really don't know why that's so funny to me, I'd usually find that to be just dorky, but I just can't stop laughing. Maybe cause Alex just randomly told it in Science class in 7th grade...

Eh, we probably should pick a new password, huh.
I remembered my meeting with Miller today. Yayfuls. Wasn't too bad, but he still kinda creeps me out in that salesman sort of way. But he went to CTY too, which was sooo cool. We bonded, and reminisced. Which was creepy in retrospect, but still fun. Because everyone loves American Pie.
Other than that, day kinda sucked, cause I was all dead and mopey all weekend from huge fight with the parental figures, this really annoying toothache, me being and idiot and getting dehydrated, and uh, yeah, the usual lack of sleep. Though Tina's party ROCKED. We were all mad cause she didn't open her presents at the party, but she was still and happiful about her iPod, so it's all good. She didn't mention the coolio bear though, so nyeh x[.
Yeah, so I was all procrastinating terribly, plus I wasn't really thinking clearly cause my head was loopy from lack of H2O, and I only just finished my World Cultures paper, which means I didn't any of the other homework. Praying to unknown deity/ies that there's no reading quiz tomorrow.
Yeah, I just woke up at 11pm, so...[wanders off in a daze]

Yeah, my haunted speakers creeped my out thoroughly, but it's okay now. At least they weren't playing hymns. I still don't know what song they were playing...
XD [falls over] Those posters ROCK. I totally WANT one. So awesome.
Tech would love one of these. I like the Meetings one: "None of us is as dumb as all of us."
Oh yeah, I remember thinking last year, "You know it's bad when the Bio teacher shows you the cleaver she keeps in her desk on the first day."
Umm, for a password, just pick something out of, like, Ender's Game or something. Cause something out of my lunch is too obvious."Indifference: It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kami is finding funny things in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Guess what I found? Some extremely hilarious posters in a Muse magazine. Supposedly they are spoofs on self-esteem posters...some spoofs can be seen here. Look under individual designs. Here are a few I found:
"If you can't learn to do something well, learn to enjoy doing it poorly."
"Until you spread your wings, you'll have no idea how far you can walk."
"Always remember that you are unique. Just like everybody else." And something I thought should be remembered: I was helping Annie with math during A/L when Mr. Feldmeth walked by carrying a chain saw. The first thing that popped into my mind was, "You know it's bad when your vice-prinicpal walks by carrying a chain saw."

Yeah, I only found out about Tina being all depressed through her Xanga. She just...confided everything with Joyce. And didn't really talk to either of us. They bonded on trip week, and kinda left me hanging there. Once again, all alone. I don't really get confided in at all...I get bitched at. All anyone really says to me is a complaint, unless it's you or a techie. Joyce complains...Tina complains...Derek complains...I'm beginning to feel like a psychologist, dang it. DADDY'S HOME! Just got back...two seconds ago. Had to go glomp and hug him. YAYFULNESS! Argh, yet another meeting with Miller tomorrow...FOURTH ONE...maybe he's beginning to be my psychologist, I dunno. Must see Star Wars AND Titanic then...
No, I haven't told anyone about it yet...I'll tell Joyce tonight. And Tina.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pip is poking marshmallows in Istanbul, not Constantinople.
Yeah, I was wondering about that. A few people seemed to post late, which was odd, but oh well. Here's a trick in case you didn't know: put up a post at [fill in time which is before midnight] saying, like, "I'm going to reply to this" and just edit it whenever you actually do the post, [do not create a new post] and voila, it says the old time and date, and no one knows the difference. Handy thing for emergencies.
Anyway, if you just look at the individual post editor, I just used the "url" slot to put in the thing at the beginning. Not hard. just put in something into the thing that says url and it'll show up. You can change it, I just wanted to put something at the beginning of each of our posts; it looked lonely.
You should see Titanic. It's a good movie to see at least once. Anyway, I was just thinking of the part at the beginning cause they have all these underwater cameras and such when they're searching for the remains of the Titanic.
Hey, on the other blog, did you already invite people? Or is it just rotting there?
Anywho, fun stuff in the land of revisions.
Y'know, no one tells me their troubles or problems. I didn't even know that Tina was all depressed. We don't talk much these days. It's hard since I have not ONE class with her. Not even the same set of classes. All different, with different teachers. [dramatic sigh] We've grown apart.

Yes, it was due Saturday, and yes, that does mean it's way overdue for me. I'm completely and totally behind...I haven't revised the self-eval essay yet either. Blargh. And how did you get the top to change like that? It's like, a random thing, but it changes all the posts when you edit the individual post thing...it's odd. As for the background...I found it off google. It's supposed to be a whale or something, but it's a huge picture, and the whole thing doesn't show. It's better than something black though. And I never saw Titanic. [edit]
I feel so guilty deleting all of our posts...oh well...

What is the background of? It's kind of dreary, and for some reason makes me think of the movie Titanic but that might just be me. Yay, you named it all three of the fun ones. We need to spice up the title though. I'll try to think of something snappy, as the saying goes.
