shush girl, shut your lips, do the hellen keller and talk with your hips

hey guys! my internet is down on my computer, so i'm using my dad's. which translates into fun typing!i had a wonderfully productive day today, mostly centered around christmas. but first, last night. i had an amazing time with kerianne and potash. we went to fratello's which looked so spectacular, all decked out for christmas. obviously, we had some delicious food, juicy conversation and sweet eye candy (not as sweet as johnny, but it was an adequate fill in). and then we walked to the railroad green, which was all lit up, and sat in the cold like a couple...well, a threesome, if you wanna get technical. and i love them. a lot. now today, i woke up, cleaned my room, ate a bowl of smart start =)) and took a shower. then meghan came to pick me up at like 12 and me, her, her mom, pat and her grandma went to the middle school craft fair. i had never been. everything was so christmas-y! it put me in such a good mood. we left around 2:30 and went back to her house to work on a global project on the potato famine. it was soo difficult to get it right! but it's pretty much finished. i just have to write a poem. but the past two days have been great cause i love my friends! i just miss my jess =( <33 i just got finished decorating my room for christmas WHILE listening to christmas music. it was so perfect. and now i'm excited for christmas. my brother made really delicious looking brownies and it's almost dinner time. so i'm gonna leave you with a much too short thankfulness list.


1) 3OH!3- a band that my sister and i discovered for ourselves today
2) craig wachsman, for helping us through our project
3) oranges
4) snow in the forecast
5) all things christmas

you can't break a christmas promise!

I'm watching merry christmas drake and josh and it's really funny. but like most things drake and josh, it makes no sense. my day today was pretty hectic, but i got through it. it's pretty chilly right now, so i'm hoping it snows. it would just add to the allure of the ever increasing christmas lights popping up all over town.the two most beautiful places in town right now are the railroad green and fratello's. so festive!!
happy weekend everyone!



1) blasting music
2) potash and kerianne <3
3) snowflake pajama pants
4) christmas movies
5) weekends

I am the swamp monster!

I'm swamped! that's the reason for that clever but unfunny title. For tomorrow I have a vocab quiz, a poetry quiz (both in the same subject) a chemistry quiz, a math quiz and a global test. wow. but i'll just grin and bear it! no philosophical stuff tonight because my brain power is being used for memorization and such. so i'm just gonna skip right on down to the list. 'night!


1) peanut butter
2) forgiveness
3) good art pencils
4) blow pops
5) rainbows

tune me out if necessary

i know you're sick of it. and i'm sorry. but i just need to express this overwhelming love, respect and admiration for my favorite group of men. they're not even a band to me anymore. they make the most beautiful, inspiring, musically and lyrically incredible music. their sense of humor, their attitudes...i can't even really explain what they mean to me. please don't think i'm obsessed. it's kind of deeper than that. because i feel like i know them. <3(Frank, Gerard, Bob, Ray and Mikey) distribute the love.


thankfulness list:

1)cold weather
2)fireplaces
3)dark chocolate
4)naps
5)the band room

I wake up every evening with a big smile on my face

Human relationships are so intricate and fascinating. Like a web of delicate strands of emotions, relationships can be strong as lead one day, and seem to crumble before your eyes the next. A trait that you found endearing in a person just yesterday might take a toll on your nerves today. It's such a delicate balance, no matter how strong the relationship seems. You have to feel out the mental and emotional states of that person, find out what makes them tick, determine if they're prone to mood swings, etc. Relationships should really be classified as a fine art. It takes effort, emotional strength, trust, emotional intelligence and a certain amount of selflessness to form a concrete bond. But in terms of the people in my life, it's 10000% worth the effort.



Thankfulness List:

1) having a sister that can drive
2) chai tea
3) calendars to plan your life
4) study hall
5) christmas lights

Just a side note

it's really global FREEZING everyone. false alarm. so break out the ice picks and snow gloves! cause we're in for an ice age ;)

sometimes even the right is wrong

hi guys!

isn't it great to randomly learn things about yourself? for example: i learned that i enjoy a schedule, order, whatever you want to call it. I can't quite think of the word. As much as I may resist it in the form of school, doing things on a day to day basis keeps me level-headed. It's wonderfully relaxing to blog every night. Some other repetition? watching the tyra show everyday, reading before i go to bed, listening to music and changing my clothes as soon as i get home =)


Thankfulness List!

1) cultural diffusion (without it we wouldn't have hip hop or chinese food!)
2) My Chemical Romance
3) thick comforters...yumm
4) ice cream
5) God
