5:17 pm	i just bought a new swimsuitt and i like it so much.. so much that i've been wearing it around my house and am currently wearing it as I write this... I forgot that this was strang until my mom came into the kitchen and saw me sitting at the computer eating cheezits and watching tv and she thought i was naked... but i assured her that i wasnt.. but she just gave me a look and left the room. I didnt try out for americas next top model yesterday.. i kinda wish i did just for kicks.. buttt tyra banks wasnt even there. my mom bought the sports illustrated swimsuit issue so i just read that. I feel like going to the gym right now.. I hope I do.. because i know that theres a good chance that urge will leave pretty soon.. like now.. you see... Man there isnt so much time until school gets out... i was thinking about it.. next weekend is winterformalish weekend i guess.. the weekend after that is visiting kendall weekend.. the weekend after thats the cruise the weekend after that is still the cruise.. the weekend after that who knows and who knows about the other weekends but i believe im gonna go to st louis one of those and go to prom there and visit wash u which excites me... and THEN SUMMMMMMMMMERRRRRR. and i can wear my new swimsuit! tennis begins soon.. and i like that i never fill out the mood or music thingy at the bottom of the livejournal page so i feel like im gonna do that this time. I think more people should do livejournal.. like everybody... so do it. I really want to go to a concert.. any concert anywhere. OH I HAVE A NEW COMPUTER... It has speakers and everything and all my music... and i can finally watch videos and click on cool links and oh man oh man... and i put it in all by myself because im a genious and i know how to match the colored cords with their corresponding cord holes on the computer.

11:59 pm	ohh goodness.. this weekend is long long long. let me see... friday night was a normal night.. it was about 8 pm and hillary and I decided that we did not feel like doing anything so we went to the gym... we did full weight training and then ran on the treadmill until the place closed and we were kicked out. Then we came back to my house and watched oprah and fell asleep before 11. Then we woke up in the morning and attended yoga and did more treadmill running.. and then we ate food. alright.. not exciting.. saturday night i had some people over and we went in the hottub and it was so cold our hair turned into icicles.. later myles and will came and joined and that was enjoyable... but it meant that i had to stay in the hottub more when my ears had compltely lost any sense of feeling... this morning i went to the hyatt w/ my mom and met this girl from easton and her mom. Shes going to the same college im going to next year. She was nice... probably the preppiest person i have ever seen in my life.. had the full sweater wrapped around the shoulders blah blah thing... and then i felt kinda ridiculous when she started explaining how she spent her summer last year interning at some important government place.. but she was nice and i dont really know where i was going with all of that.. okay tonight went to ross whitmans w/ some people and then to see date movie and im really not feeling very motivated to write anything else... oh i got invited to prom in st. louis which would be kinda cute... and i got into college park gemstone thing... and and. these toe socks are cutting off the circulation in my toes.. and im too tall because when i walk in the hallways at school i run into short people because they are below my line of vision.. and usually they dont do anything and act like im just a wall and im sick of it..

11:14 am	alright.. things are definitely gonna be different from now on and im pretty sure thats a good thing. I want to keep myself as occupied as possible and make the best out of the rest of my senior year. I wanna start hanging out with more people and involving myself in more things. Next weekend I believe the plan is to go visit Maria at St. Mary's which should be excellent.. plus myles and will and college people are coming so maybe i shall see them.. The weekend after that theres a snowboarding trip I think I will go on.... Then pretty soon Ill be on a cruise which im really excited for and then somewhere in the mix I plan to visit kendall at towson w/ hillary.. Also tennis season begins very very soon.. that will be very good i like all the tennis people and i miss playin it. Oh goodness I've been thinking more and more about college and I am getting really excited for it.. I can't wait. Also Im really excited for my summer job.. Instead of getting a real job like i was dreading I'm going to start painting portraits for people. I already have two lined up and I'm going to see how those go. My art teacher is helping me with the pricing and says i can make 250+ per painting. He is also helping me with techniques on how to do it and getting me started. (6 Comments |Comment on this)

8:24 pm	so my mom and dad think that my sister and I are abusing vicodin. I wish I could say I was.. but im not. about 4 days ago my sister got her wisdom teeth out so she was given vicodin to cure the pain. Last night Hillary put a conversation i was having with her where i was like "just gimme the damn vicodin blah blah blah" as a joke as her away message. funny maybe not but the parentals took that literally... and it didnt help when this morning elizabeth was taking her vicodin to school to take in case her mouth hurt... well my mom freaked out and confiscated her pills... she counted the number of pills elizabeth had taken out of the bottle and it was 12 out of 20... and decided that there was no way elizabeth couldnt have taken 12 pills in 4 days and that she was giving them away to her friends... so i come home at 10 30 am during my break and see a note left for me on the counter telling me to put my leftover vicodin pills on the counter... well i used them all up during my wisdom teeth thing.. she then starts freakin out to me about the dangers of vicodin use and i just kinda look at her with a look like shes crazy.. she then goes to call the doctor and ask if 12 pills in 4 days is a normal vicodin use and he says yes... even so my mom goes online and finds all this information for my sister and i to study and then write a paper about it and then tells us we have a family meeting. I swear my mom watches too much dr. phil and oprah she just invents problems for us. I have finally convinced my mom that my sister and I do not have a vicodin abuse problem and she cancelled the family meeting and paper we have to write... but this is the email that was sent.. Elizabeth and Kate - following are links to sites to learn about Vicodin. You think that we are being "silly parents" in being concerned about your use/unconcern about Vicodin. But this is NOT the case. It is a dangerous narcotic that can be addicting without intent. I don't want talk-back, or even the excuse that you are good kids. I know you're good kids, but there are some things you should not mess around with. YOUR ASSIGNMENT: We will have a family meeting at 9pm tonight. I want you to write up a two-page report that covers the following questions. You may each write a page, or work together. I do not want talk-back that you don't want to do this. I don't care. It is a much better alternative than some of the things that I have been thinking of doing to teach you the gravity of narcotics.: * Is Vicodin abuse common? * How long does someone take Vicodin before there could be a problem? * What would happen to a child who was found with Vicodin in high school? * What would happen to a child who was found giving Vicodin to a friend? * How would a disciplinary report/suspension/expulsion affect chances of being accepted at a competitive college? Here are some links I found, you should look at. I will expect you to read the article below, and be able to summarize it this evening.

5:50 pm	ha yeah so I went into Jostens today to go get a cap and gown. I walk in and say I think i missed the deadline. Then the lady looks at me and says "you missed 6 deadlines". And then I said "Oh". and then there was an akward silence. But I got one so sall good. ha man.. last week we had to take math team pictures and i remember them taking the picture unexpectedly.. but i didnt know exactly how bad it would turn out... well today in calc i saw a group of people gathered around somthin laughing.. turns out they were laughing at the math team picture blown up poster size which had me with an extremely retarded facial expression. It doesnt help that I was completely dead center in the picture and one of the tallest people there. Ha so I go over and see it and start cracking up which wasnt a good idea because i was eating pizza simultaneously and little pieces of pizza flew onto the picture.. ha alright hahaha my little sister got her wisdom teeth out today.. and hillary and I were bored so we watched her try to eat mashed potatoes while not being able to feel her tongue or lips cuz of the novacaine... and big globs would spill out of her mouth and fall onto her chin.. I came home from school today.. and my mom had this lady over who was feng shi ing our house or something... and she made us take the big 6 foot plastic palm tree out of our family room.. and into the garage.. so im gonna try to fit it in my room... she also made us move plants around for no good reason and took stuff off our walls. I really dont believe in feng shi but my mom is obsessed with it... she hangs little crystals off of dental floss from the ceiling of my sister and I's room to give us positive energy.. and sometimes she'll walk around the house burning sage and repeating some line aobut getting rid of negative energy.. hm Tomorrow is the weekendddd d d d d d d..... i look forward to that (5 Comments |Comment on this)

8:42 pm	Ughh why am i so retarded... so i realized that I have to buy a cap and gown.. found the order form i had stashed somewhere in my room and that said it was due october 31st... not a good sign.. hopefully its not too late to still get one... im such an idiot.. really.. If I dont get to walk because of this.. thats gonna be.. not good... And to complete it.. my name is going to be misspelled on my diploma because i forgot to send corrections to the office. And to complete it more I might not even graduate granted I have no community service hours recorded and by the time i record them it will only be like 50.. Man.. being a senior is so difficult Why is it already almost thursday? this week is going by fast. There is not much interesting going on in my life right now... I need more things to occupy my time.. everyone else has rock and roll or sports and I have.. . . . ..... blah Tennis season begins soon.. hopefully I dont suck too much and I get to play.... vpa has an artshow at su starting feb 10th. I had a math team meet today. Lindsey Perdue and I saw eachother there. Again I did not get called up to do any problems but my 10th grade sister did. And then everyone asked me why she was smarter than me and I had no reply. But its okay... I just go for the food... they had meatballs there today.. meatballs pizza rolls cupcakes... I think im getting sick as in I am sick but not that much and if i tell myself Im sick I will feel sick so im telling myself im not. I hope this weekend is a successful weekend.

10:31 pm	HOHOHOHOHO It's christmas eve.. that is exciting. My family has already given gifts and once again they are not very normal. My dads idea of gift buying is to go to sams club or walmart and buy the first things he sees in pairs for my sister and i. One of these items was "press-on toenails"..... I guess he probably thinks thats a normal thing for girls to use... maybe it is.. I dont know? i feel akward gluing things to my feet. My dad gave my mom a life size.. completely realistic looking monkey head... that has light sensors and motion sensors and sound sensors and you can control its facial features with a remote and make sounds ocme out of it. It is quite possibly one of the creepiest things i have ever seen.. I feel bad for the person who comes to my house and exclaims wow thats a weird monkey head and then goes to look at it closely and it starts freaking out on him. Nick came and gave me my gift tonight! His was wrapped perfectly with bows.. mine was not. christmas is fun. This break has started off well. Soon David Blattner and I will celebrate hanukah and we are gonna use the menorahs and all that and we have to give eachother 8 gifts.

6:20 pm	ahhhh....... so im just laying in my bed reading a magazine when all of a sudden the door bell rings... Im thinking it's hillary but im too lazy to get up so im hoping my mom or dad or sister will get it. The doorbell rings again.. and I feel kinda bad so I decide to go let hillary inside. So Im answering the door.. and its not hillary its this little boy.. and so im like whatsup... and then it was like a movie where i suddenly looked up and noticed the little boy was accompanied by 50 other people-and this is no exaggeration. So I don't know what do do.. and then all of a sudden they start singing and im just standing there confused.. nobody has ever caroled for me before. And so im standing there and im kinda getting bored...and it's really akward because everyone was looking at me and i felt like i should be looking amused or dancing along... then my dad comes to check it out but it was funny because he just walked by looked out the door and left me there alone again. And then they stopped.. and i had the door halfway closed.. when they started singing a whole other song... and at this point i was pissed because my whole family was in the living room chilling watching me stand there being caroled. And the most akward part was when they were done..I wasnt sure what i was supposed to do. so i said thanks and shut the door. I am never answering my door again. okay i feel mean... i think that its very nice that these people took the time to carol for me. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

9:01 pm	hmm... I can't get myself overly excited for christmas.. i've been in kinda a crappy mood lately and i dont like it. We are having a feast in VPA though... i like that. I lose everything.. I don't even know how I do it. Most currently I have misplaced my cell phone. I've been crawling in my room with a flashlight inspecting all the crevices and no luck. Shoot. I can't wait to take a bath. (Comment on this)

1:37 pm	This is my weekend. Friday night I went ice skating in Ocean City which was very enjoyable and then watched night at the roxbury for the 23850 time and it was still not funny and then closed my eyes while everyone else watched parts of Saw 2 and then i went home. Saturday I woke up and saw a movie with my mom and sister and bought clothes. Then Hillary came and I had organized about 2218537w9 items of clothing of hers that she had left at my house over the years. Then we got ready for a random black and white party that lindsay invited us to. and then it was about 5 30 pm and the thing didnt start till 10:30... so we decided to make people take us to dinner... Ross and Jay.. except they suck at going to dinner because all they did was watch the sports tv at the restaurant.. but mallory was our server and that excited me. Then after dinner we came back to my house and james park joined and we watched a show about lesbians.. but it was on a kids channel so they didnt show any of the make out scenes..and then lindsay came and she and hillary and i left to go to the black and white party. I walk in and all of a sudden i see like 5 people from my vpa class and they're all just like wtf, what are you doing here. But then it was all good and i saw ronnica for the first time in 329507 years. And Peirce came as well which was brilliant. And Hillary and i performed our ballet about 3 times.. And then we left... came home.. and iw ent online while hillary read in my bed.. and then she turned off the lights to go to sleep and i had to hurry up and sign off so she wouldnt fall asleep and take my side of the bed... so then I go into bed.. and right before I ask her if she knows where my teddy bear is.. and she starts laughing.. and thats when i realized how retarded it was that i still slept with a teddy bear.. I didnt even realize that I still did.. Im just so used to automatically doing it.. And then Hillary started telling me how she always thought it was kidna weird that id bring it to her house when i slept over but she didnt wanna say anything... she tried to make me feel better by saying that she slept with astuffed pig.. but then she admitted that she stopped years ago. I know anybody who's reading this could care less about this information but im gonna keep going... You see it's not that I need a teddy bear to sleep with for security it's just im so used to associating sleep with something in my arms.. so when im not in my own bed or at a hotel I hold a pillow or wrap a blanket in a ball to hold when im sleeping. Alright.. I'll move on to sunday. I woke up at 8.. Hillary woke up at 12.. When hillary woke up i made pancakes for her.. except i messed up and accidentally put more chocolate chips in the batter than batter itself.. so basically you cut into the pancake and a half inch high sea of melted chocolate fell out.. it was actually pretty gross. Alright thats my weekend.. and you would think i would stop my entry there.. but i dont feel like it yet... usually when i write entries I just go until im bored and sometimes that will leave me with 2 sentences and other times 2 paragraphs but this time im gonna be going for awhile. ha actually i lied im bored now.. so im not gonna write anymore.
