I Wish

I could draw.

Dunno why. I just would love to express myself through art.

=/

Today Cy and I saw Grand Torino. He wasn't offended by the racist comments so that was good. =p

It was nice seeing it again. =)

Went back to his house and ate dinner there. Played Rock Band. When Cyrus gave me the mic to sing I pushed it away because I was too nervous. But I sung along to some songs. I don't think anyone heard me though, which is fine.

Cy and I then watched Mr. Bean. That movie was too funny. =p

Got home and had a talk with my mother before heading into the living room where my Dad had started a fire (in the fireplace).

It was really warm and so fun to watch. I'm always so captivated by the dancing flames in the fireplace. So beautiful, yet so dangerous. I love it.

JJ and Nick pulled me into the guest room and wanted to know about...health... *cough*

Silly little boys...

Going to make cookies, and then drive to the park with my Dad, we're going to take a hike in the woods

Lemon pepper chicken for dinner too! My most and always favorite dinner. Ever.

NOTHING WILL BEAT IT! o.o

Listening to Arms Of The Angels by Sarah McLaughlan. It always makes me want to cry, it's such a pretty song and her voice is so beautiful.

You Just Lost The Game

Muwahahahaha.

>=)


Cyrus was only at school for a half hour, then he had to go to the Middle School and help with class lists (you call it schedules I call it a class list) so I was somewhat grumpy.

While delivering a pass, one of my favorite history teachers, Mr. Cash, was shutting his door. I whisper-yelled "Mr. Caaaaash!" and waved to him.

Then he kept shutting the door, gave me this confuzzled smile and waved back.

MY DAY WAS MADE.

Art everyone kept asking where Cyrus was, and some people were like "Oh, you're his girl friend?? Oh my gosh, hi!"

It's okay though, I mean it's so hard to notice that we're going out. I mean, me sitting next to him every day in art, holding his hand when we come into the classroom, leaning against him and hugging his arm while we're waiting for the bell to ring definably doesn't make it seem like we're dating....

-_-

Seriously.

Ryan and I skipped out on the pep rally and walked down the 100's hallway.

Ran into a group of teachers where I lied smoothly and got to my destination, Mr. J's class.

He was talking to his wife and playing What Is Love on his computer. =p

Oh the bus ride home there were 3 coyotes in the field on the Valley View side of my street.

It was so cool!

Watched a bit of CSI NY and then took a quick shower.

Did a bit of night driving. I did well, I only didn't stop at 1 stop sign and I took 2 turns too fast.

Also, I think my Dad paid a raccoon to run out in the middle of the road. I missed it and stopped smoothly though!

HA!

Gary came over and now him and Dad are drinking beers and playing pool down the basement.

They won't let me down...it's 'man time'.

I wish I was a guy sometimes and be a part of 'man time'.

=/

Well I do...

That's about it.

Watched all the Jake and Amir videos on the College Humor youtube channel. I love those guys.

They're on MTV too now! =D

Adventure with Cyrus tomorrow! =)

Power point

I really hate the power point notes on the website.

I think the way they're organized is stupid and wastes a ton of space on your paper.

>=/

But...I did find this really funny picture online!



Now go read the real blog post below.

Governments, Fights, and Guns

While taking some history notes this evening I was talking to Peaches and saying how I chuckle when I see Obama because he's a Communist trying to run a mostly Capitalist country.

And Communists are all like "Sharing is caring!" while Capitalists are like "Every man for himself! But maybe help the other guy sometimes..."

Then Peaches brought up the fact how preschools are always like "Share your toys!!"

So, preschools are trying to teach us to be Communist.

It just takes Elementary school to fuck it up. "My desk! My pencil! My tater tots!"

Yep.

Played calculator games all during math class today to keep myself awake. I knew how to do everything anyways. I got all the answers right on my homework! =D

Filed things in Guidance today. Or should I say Jessica and Marcus did. I read what we had to read for English and took the paper clips and made a necklace! =D

I think it looks pretty cool, I'm gonna wear it again sometime. =)

Lunch was chicken nuggets, so I was happy. =p

In Spanish we played the fly swatter game. When I was up, the word we had to reach for was so high I had to jump to reach it while the guy competing against me just had to reach his arm up...

Piiish.

Short people are cooler.

History we did a photo analysis thing and then had to make up 5 slogans. It was fun. =p

Art we did more clay. I accidently painted black glaze on Cy's paper... =p

English I texted Max (who was sitting right next to me) and payed no attention whatsoever.

Cy met me at my bus and said good bye. ^-^

Apparently after the bell rang at school today there was a fight. I got the details from Cyrus...and I must say, this was the best fight ever at Nordonia.

So there were two black guys fighting, a freshie, and an upper classman. Besides the fact they were fighting in front of the office (which we all know has glass walls so it's not like none of the teachers could see them...) and Mr. Vrabel came out (who we all know is really fat...) and tried to break up the fight.

Well, turns out the guys fighting managed to knock him over, and then one of them was flipped over, causing change to fall out of his pocket.

And then some girl picked up the change and ran!

xD

I really wish I was there, even if I would have missed my bus.

Got home, and the Middle School principal called saying that a kid had brought a gun to the Middle School (a borken BB gun) and was taken away by the Sheriff.

They always had the Sheriff at the Middle School when I went there...

Caught up on my internet stuffs and then ate maybe like...2 bites of dinner?

Then went upstiars to take a few history notes.

=)

Suddenly Tired

I suddenly feel so tired I don't want to blog anymore...

Found out which class Lost Asian has during 3rd period.

Also ran into Seizure Man and Peter Parker a few times as well!

Thinking of getting a Dailybooth account. I wish I had someone to take my pic though...it'd be easier...

I was going to get it today, but I'm too tired now. I'll do it tomorrow maybe.

Mr. J wasn't here today. We had a quiz and then watched a extremely boring/cheesy movie. =/

English we did our scheduling.

Piratically ran to 129 to sign up for my driving class. I got in though! =D

Cyrus drove me home. On the way he stopped to get gas and while he was out of the car Lienne and I colored in the little ceiling like with Sharpie markers. It's all pretty now. =p

Got to drive around after dinner...it took my 5 times to pull into the garage. But I pulled it in perfectly on the 5th time! =D

Just thought about checking if my library book is overdue or not. It needs to be renewed tomorrow. Mwuahahahahahahaha. I'm safe.

Worked out, tired now.

Will finish the rest of my homework tomorrow...

ily.

OMG TODAY...

I drove home... =x

IT WAS SO SCARY!!!

o.o

First we went to the play to take the test, and mom couldn't find how to get into the parking lot, so I told her they're also testing the old people by doing this too. =p

Finally parked, and then went inside and I was really scared because we were seriously the only white people in there and everyone was staring at my mom and I like they were going to kill us...

Went up to the desk and the man asked me to stand on this red line and he took my picture, before asking me to look into this thing to test my vision.

Then he started asking me questions. The 1st one was:

Have you ever had you license suspended before in this or any other state?

And I didn't answer fast, I actually kinda just started at him with this blank look on my face thinking "What the fuck I don't even have my license."

My Mom then said no, and the man half shouted "YOU CAN'T ANSWER FOR HER!" and then looked at me again.

Then he asked me if I had any medical or mental condition that would prevent me from driving. I was going to asked him if being blonde counted but he looked really mean and grumpy so I just said no...

The test was on a TOUCH SCREEN. I was so happy. Until I missed the first question. Then I was sad. IT WAS SO STUPID!!

It asked me what type of vehicles had to stop at railroad tracks.

and the choices were:

A. All vehicles

B. Public transportation

C. Cars

D. Vehicles carrying anything flammable or explosive

So, I thought back to my golf trips, and how in the van Coach had to stop and pull down the window and listen. So I picked B. The answer was D.

>=/

I passed though... =D

When I was done with my test, I went and sat down next to my mom in the seats. Two seats away was a woman, and then she had her purse set down on the seat next to her, and then their was my seat. My hand was close to her purse, but that didn't really matter to me until suddenly...I felt my hand getting very wet.

SHE HAD LITTLE PUPPIES IN HER PURSE!!

TWO OF THEM!!

They were adorable! ^-^

Got my license and they took my picture. After they did that, I had to sign on those little electric EPad things. I didn't really put together that what I signed on there would be my signature on my temps.

So now at the bottom of my temps it says in horrible cursive: Ashly Cost

and then after that it's a bunch of scribbles because I couldn't fit the rest of my name. =p

Mom didn't let me drive until we got to some familiar territory, then I had to drive to my Grammy's to pick up something.

I was holding the wheel so hard my knuckles were white. o.o

While I was driving on Boydan (I'm really sure that's not how the street name is spelled...but I don't care...), which is 25, I was doing 30. Everything was going fine when all of a sudden, this old guy pulls out and starts riding my ass.

AN OLD GUY!

I mean...normally it's the other way around...

But anyways, in the end, I just drove slower to piss him off and once we got to the intersection (I was going straight, he was making a left) he gave me this really evil glare and sped off.

=p

Mad it to Grammy's in once piece...although I made to fast of a turn turning into her street and most of the time Mom could have delivered the mail because I was so paranoid about hitting the on coming traffic so I was driving close to the shoulder...

When I shut the car off in my Grammy's driveway I nearly pissed myself. =p

Then I had to drive BACK.

It was better...until I got to my driveway.

Yes, my drive way.

No, I didn't hit my dad's reflectors, if I did, I would be dead.

What did happen though was when I turned into my driveway I suddenly see this huge white truck in front of me.

I screamed "THIS WASN'T ON THE TEST!" then slammed on my breaks. Turns out the roofing people came to the house today...

=p

Then that was it. I ate spaghetti for dinner and worked on my English paper rough draft from 6-9.

Ugh...it's so half ass...I didn't even write the conclusion paragraph...

Oh well.

Now I will go say hi to my Dad and then go to bed!

ily.

New Moosic

Three new songs actually. =) Check them oooooout!

During the end of lunch today Mr. Browman was like "4B, or not 4B!" and I was like "Holy crap...that's so lame..."

When I was in the hall walking to English he then said "Come on man, this ain't no party, get to class and don't be tardy!"

I bet he comes up with better rhymes than the cheerleaders!

xD

Today a lot of people kept on coming up to me and going "OMG ASHLEY YOU'RE WEARING GLASSES AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!"

I've been wearing glasses since I was 4 people, piiiiiiist, it's nothing new.

o.o

During Spanish today, while we were translation a paragraph, I started having a coughing fit. After it Smith pointed to me and went "Ana! Translate!!" And I looked at the paragraph and then asked her where we were and she looked at me like I was a dumbass and then pointed at somebody else to translate it.

I'm sorry, I can't cough and pay attention to what sentence we're on...

History was awesome. We watched FAMILY GUY.

Mhm, be jealous.

Way better than Saving Private Ryan or Hotel Rwanda (although I enjoyed both films in last year's class).

I have to make Mr. J cookies now because he's having the chappie 13 test on Monday...it's okay though because in the end, I still get the better end of the deal. I get more cookies. =p

Mwuhahahahahahahahahaha.

Art we're making designs for clay bowls. I've got two, we were supossed to have 5 last week. Our whole art class is so far behind. =p

English we took notes. Only a page and a half this time, which is better than her normal 5...

Got home and have been working on homework and talking with Cyrus. I didn't really do anything for my rough draft for English...I typed half a sentence...oh well. I'll get it done tomorrow.

Discovered I forgot to put Spanish 2 on my class list...had to fix that...

Caramel says he feels like shit, I told him he should take a shower and go to sleep. He thinks he has the flu which is bitter sweet because:

A. I didn't give him anything
B. The flu isn't good at all...

That's about it now, Hero's on in 20 minutes!

Bleh XP

Maybe a ham and cheese sandwich with lays classic chips on the side isn't the best not-so-midnight-snack snack in the world...

Stomach is trying to resist...

No hugs tomorrow guys. =(

I don't wanna get you sick...

ily.

I IZ DA POKEMON MASTA

So just now JJ kept shouting my name from downstairs and I ran down and all of a sudden he just shoved his DS in my hands and shouted "Play Pokemon, I gotta pee!"

.........

I beat the gym leader with charmander though! =D

Today I went to the golf show with Dad and Mr. Grayson. It was pretty cool. They had a golf simulator thingy and it showed a par 3 hole and you had to get your ball closest to the pin and whoever did won $25,000.

I didn't do it, I was too nervous with all the people watching...

Put Paul did it!

He's one of my Dad's buddies and is really good at golf. As we walked around a lot of people talked about this Paul character and how he could putt and hit really well.

He made it to the leader boards on the par 3 hole thing, 8 yards away!

I thought it was cool since I could go "Yeah, I know Paul, he's a really cool guy."

=D

Got a windbreaker and some socks. Then we left. I wasn't feeling well so as soon as I came home I had some soup and went straight to bed. Slept for a few hours and I still wasn't feeling good so I didn't go to golf practice.

Got my homework finished, and now am chilling here in my bed with Cyro and talking to you lovely people online.

Heh...I took Cyro to the golf show with me. Dad wouldn't let me take him out of the car though...

=p

ily.

B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets

I've heard that song so many times this week, I love it. Dad played it really down in the basement while I was playing a little pool with him, Uncle Gary, and Mr, Grayson. I did pretty good this time! =D

We were all singing along to it too. =p

What can I say, I like Elton John.

Today was fun, woke up showered and got ready to go to Jessica's party.

I tried to get directions to her house but the computer downstairs froze on me. It's so slow from all of JJ's games he had on there...that boy is obsessed with Star Trek.

It was getting close for us to leave to go to the party too, so I was really rushing to get them (which is my fault since I should have gotten them earlier =p) but anyways, I had moved onto my laptop, and everything was going fine then. I had finally gotten the directions, and I had copied them and pasted them to word to print out, when all of a sudden it says my computer can't connect to the printer.

So, being the violent child that I am, in a fit of range I kicked my dresser so hard that I collapsed to the floor in pain, all at the same time, grabbing a piece of paper and pen to scribble the directions down and hoping that I didn't break my foot.

My foot isn't broken, but it really fucking hurts.

I wonder if my dresser has a dent in it...

In the end though we go to Jessica's house. =p

Devvy Chan, and Ellie came. We had a Pikachu cake and ice cream (I had chocolate chip cookie dough flavored) and it was really good!

It actually looked like this (I found in on Google image search):



Headed to Dave and Busters. Played the racing games first. I won. =p

Next Devvy Chan, Jessica and I (we were the 3 Musketeers of the afternoon) went to the games where you can win tickets and had a lot of fun.

We played air hokey, DDR, a motorcycle racing game, a basketball game, ski ball, this one where you pull a crank and lands on a number of tickets (very high numbers too) and another game where you drop you coins it, and the more you knock down over this ledge, the more tickets you get.

In the end, I only got 857 tickets or so though.

With my tickets I bought a stuffed monkey that reminds me of Cy (I named it Cyro), a shot glass for my dad, a water bottle, a light up push pop, and a Dora tattoo.

=D

The ride back home was fun, Jessica's mom is really nice. =)

Mom picked me up and she had the radio turned up really loud "Shout" was playing. Then Bennie and the Jets came on! =D

Came home, ordered a pizza, and then waited for the pizza and Cyrus to get to my house so we can bring it over to Grammy's.

We talked about many things, and enjoyed coke (the drink), pizza, and klondike bars. For a while we watched Academic Challenge, before moving into the TV room. Deja Vu was on, but we weren't really paying attention to it. Besides, the movie looked boring anyways.

Big Al played a lot with us too. He's a sweet little thing. Get's a big rough though...he bit Cyrus, so Grammy put him in the laundry room area.

Left around 9:20ish, Cy drove me home, and then he had to leave quickly.

After he left, I hung out in the bedroom with mom, I brushed her hair and then braided it and she played with my hair too.

=)

Then I watched a bit of SNL with her (the House guy was hosting tonight and he spoke with his accent!).

Now I'm here talking with Cyrus. =)

And yes, it is 3AM.

=p

Going to the Golf thing at the IX Center tomorrow (or actually, latter on today) with Dad and Mr.Grayson.

Then I have golf practice too.

Fun stuffs, fun stuffs!

Spirit Week

It has finally ended with Nordonia Day. The school was basically a sea of green, white, and black.

Physics we had another lab today, we weren't very silly though today.

Math I we got our tests back, I got a B! =D

Delivered a pass to Mr. Cash's class today...man I miss that class...he was such a jerk, I loved it. I think it's because he's really just a nice guy though.

Spanish we learned about demonstrative adjectives.

History class we took the test, even with lack of notes. I thought it was easy though *knock on wood* but a lot of other people kept on saying that they think they failed it.

I know I got one question right at least!

The Supreme Court one! I asked Cyrus after the test. =p

English I played upside down tetris then I donated rice.

=D

430 grains!!

Got home, showered, then watched some TV with Mom. Cyrus came over then and we watch Indian Jones. =)

If the weather is good I'll be going to Jess's party tomorrow!

That's it for now!

More tomorrow! =D

Profile


Name: Supa Ash
Age: 15
Height: Short(ish)
Shoe size: 6 1/2
Occupation: Super Hero

Profile picture ------------------------------>

Oh yeah.

I'm a supa hero!

I also have this urge to dig out the Justice League VHS and watch it. I loved that movie. I still do. But I used to too. =p

I got many compliments on my cap and boxers (which are actually mine and not JJ's).

Oh, wanna know what my power is?!

Dunker Day senses.

While in the office with Jess I was like "Hmm...I feel like it's going to be Dunker Day today..." and she looked at the menu and it was!

Mwuahahahahahahahaha.

Now to train and make myself able to poof dunkers out of thin air...

They're so good....

Spanish class we played a fun new game called Avlancha. Our team lost...but it's okay...the other team didn't get candy anyways. =p

History I spent most of my time taking notes. I got most of section 2 done. I only had a page left. I don't think there was much on it though. Mostly just repeated information from the previous section and how Roosevelt punched his enemies in the face by fixing their problems and getting re-elected.

^-^

6th period was super dee dooper!

xD

English I went in, failed another vocab test, then we went to the IMC lab.

Got home and went to finish my history notes but the online book site wasn't working. It told me to check back later.

So then I worked on Spanish homework and kept checking the online book site and fell asleep. Woke up around 7 (2 hour nap, yippee! -_-) and checked the site again, still not working.

Then it occurred to me that Mr. Johansson's website has power point notes on it from class. So I go onto the site and in big letters it said "ERROR SITE NOT FOUND"

At a glace I could have sworn it said "ERROR, YOU ARE NOW FUCKED" but then I took a closer look.

*headdesk*

I got most of the notes though....and copied down some of the stuff from the handouts to another piece of paper.

Watched Bones with my mom, and then we went outside in the garage to talk. In the end, we came back into the house laughing so hard we were literally crying. It was great. =D

Andrew Bravener posted this in one of his tweets. I think it's pretty amazing.


Courtesy of electricpig, The Sultan's Elephant.

I'd be so scared if I saw that thing in real life though. =p

That's all for now. Gonna keep checking the websites, talk to Cyrus and then if all fails, go to bed. Or at least try. I'm still a bit awake from my nap. I'm sure I can calm down enough though, I'm pretty good at taking a 2-4 hour nap, finishing homework, then going back to sleep.

ily.

EPIC FAIL

The my.hrw.com site is temporarily unavailable. Please check back later.


GAH!

NOW I CAN'T FINISH MY HISTORY NOTES!!!

KFHLAKSHFDLAHFDLKASHDFLKAHJDFLKHFDFDHLKDFHLAFH!!!!!

*HEADDESK*

It better be working when I check back later....or else.

And you don't wanna know what else.

Hellz Yeah

My supa hero costume for spirit week tomorrow is so awesome. I can't wait until you guys see it!

It's so stupid it's epic. =p

I'll post a picture on here of me in it tomorrow.

Physics we had a lab today so we mostly messed around.

We got the lab done though!

Jess got yelled at by Pitts today because her skirt was too low. Well, at least that's what she said. If the office ladies didn't say anything, or her 1st and 2nd period teachers didn't say anything, I think it's fine.

She must have had a huge bug up her ass today, aside from the one she always has.

I keep biting my nails! ><

Oh!

Lost Asian is in my lunch!!

Who the hell is Lost Asian?

Well, there was this guy at the dance that just stood there most of the time looking completely lost, and he was Asian. So I nicknamed him Lost Asian. And now he's in my lunch!

It was so hard not to lunge at him and hug him. =p

History I took notes for section 1.

Art I worked on my scratch drawing and then someone gave me a cookie! =D

English I ate my cookie and gave Andy, Devvy Chan, and Ryan some.

They called us down for the show choir thing.

I honestly don't think they're that good. Their singing sucks and the dancing bores me.

But Mushroom head was in it!

Got home, and finished my Geometry homework and history notes for section 1 then ate dinner and went to Cyber Cafe to start on some of my Valley Voyages project.

It was fun, there was Twix Bars and hot chocolate. Zak was there though... I stayed close to Cy.

Came home, showered, showed my mom my supa hero costume, and now I'm here.

Going to bed now.

Night to all!

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

Yep, I Did It

I downloaded a few songs sung by Britney Spears. They're now on Melvin.

.....

Don't judge me.

Also, there's a new song on my playlist!

So today was fashion disaster today for spirit week. I got many complements on my fuzzy toe sock, and my candy cane striped one. I also got many for my scarf as well. =)

Cy made me a lunch today!

He made me a ham and cheese sandwich with many other goodies like chocolate pudding and yummy cookies!

On the spoon he wrote "spoon" and on the pudding he put "spoon is used here". =p

There was a juice box too. =)

In history Cameron that sits in front of me (not Caramel) gave me a piece of his chocolate chip cookie. =)

I was very tired when I got to art. I fell asleep multiple times.

Been very out of it today...hard for my brain to grasp things.

Got home, ate like a pig, and then fell asleep on the couch and took a nap with Devvy chan.

Woke up in time to get ready for Cy to come over. We're making capes for super hero day. They're so awesome.

Be jealous.

Crying is an option too.

Devvy chan left today.

The house seems slightly empty now... =/

Caught up on all my youtube videos finally.

Did anyone see Fred on Nickelodeon? I missed it.

Tired now.

Happy Prez Day!

Ah Monday, we meet again, and always on the same day. Curious....very curious...

Went to work today. Did a lot of filling that hadn't been done due to procrastination and busyness.

Everyone seemed to miss me. Kris was all excited he was the first to know about me in the paper. =p

Didn't do much in the warehouse. I really only came back there for boxes for the files that needed to be thrown away and when I noticed the UPS truck pull up. I was all excited for Doug and had ran all the way to the end of the warehouse to the garage until I realized that he was too sick to work anymore...

John and Larry say they don't like the new people, they're on time. Doug was always a half hour late. =p

*sigh*

After lunch Dad drove me to Chick Master Inc. I've never been there before and my Dad used to work there (until the boss father died, and his son took over, firing my Dad when I was 6 months old).

We came to deliver a part to them (since they now buy from my Dad, the manager of the SWACO branch here in Ohio) (sorry if that sounds like bragging I just love the irony).

They've been laying off a lot of workers. From new guys to people that have worked there for 32 years.

It's scary.

I got to work on my homework after we came back and read a bit more of my drivers book. Going to take the test this week I think...

=/

Came home, and Devvy chan and I messed around on the computer.

Worked out, watched Hero's.

Now I'm here.

=)

Tired now.

Time for bed.

*Sniffles*

Golf wasn't good as I expected.

Kept severely slicing. My swing was very slow.

In the end though, I got my speed up and then I started hitting my 3 wood and hit it very well if I do say so myself.

Of course coach wasn't there when I started hitting better...

Dad will be shorthanded at work tomorrow so I'll be coming in to help a bit. I won't be doing much. Just sitting around and maybe answering the phones and stuffs.

So forgive me if I answer my cell phone and go "S.W. Anderson this is Ashley speaking, how may I help you?"

=p

I was just looking at our website for the company. It's pretty snazzy, check it out.

=)

Dad and I were talking about that Rosetta Stone thing and I thought it would be cool for us to get the Spanish one because my Dad is inserested in learning the language and it would help a lot for my Spanish 2 class.

So I went online to check how much they were.

Over $250.

Heh heh...fuck that.

Maybe we could find a used one?

Bleh.

Got the Akron Journal and read the artical. There's a group picture of us and then one of Jessica, and another one of Evan and Jeramey.

I was quoted me twice. The first quote was good and correct...then words were shoved in my mouth on the second quote.

In the paper is said that I said "They learned the frustrations of dealing with 55 fellow students, not all of whom paid attention or listened to instruction on the 13-mile pedal along the Towpath Trail from Akron to Peninsula, Ashley said."

Fuck that.

I said that the point of the trip was to learn, and explore, not just a free bike ride.

His quote makes me sound like I'm saying that we didn't teach well or something and that we couldn't control our students. >=(

Stupid media.

Will change the blog tomorrow. I need sleep because I have to wake up early tomorrow and I'm starting not to feel well. I hope I'm not catching that cold everyone is getting. =/

ily.

Stressed Out On The Interwebs

I have SO many things to catch up on. Youtube videos, blogs, forums, e-mail....

Dear god.

But anyways, Friday was my blog's 1 year anniversary! I didn't have time to post though... =/

Handed out my Dora Valentines Day cards and candy. Was covered in glitter from them...it looked like I fucked a pixie or something. =p

Went to Peaches house for girls day (just realized I forgot to bring the chips..sorries peaches!!).

Devvy chan and I were there first, and then Rayy, and Sami came. In the end, Sami had to leave to go to another party and the 4 of us left watched Mirrors. It was scary. =p

Woke up around 10:30 yesterday, day left me a card and a rose on the bathroom counter for my V-day present. =)

Vacuumed the basement, dusted, and then took a shower. Mom worked on my hair, and I played with JJ on Brawl.

Took a few pictures at my house with my parents and little bro.



JJ and I.



Dad and I.



Mom and I.

=)

Then we went to Cy's house and took pictures.



The two of us went to Applebees and got a table. Andy came first, then Rayy, then Peaches and Ryan.

Everything went smoothly and our waitress was really nice. She answered all questions we had to the best of her ability and made sure all our needs were satisfied.

She also came by our table and asked how we were doing when we didn't have food in our mouths.

Being that she was really nice, gave us good service, and was her first time working on her own there, we gave her a really big tip and left her a note saying "Thank, from the table people"

=p

Got to the dance and then we partied the night away. They didn't play the song I requested of course. Either because someone scratched it out or because they didn't have it.

Besides rap, they actually play a little music at the dance. They had a little techno and stuffs.

After the dance we all piled in my mom's car and Cy's to go to my house for the after party.

Bryan brought over a pizza! =D

I was surprised as to how many of my friends played pool!

I played with Ryan, Andy, Mike, and Gerber for a bit. IT was really fun. They played Barbie Girl on the radio too! =D

In the end everyone seemed to have fun. =)

Didn't go to bed until around 2ish. Woke up at 1:30 today.

Have golf this evening, don't think I'll be playing too well today. I'm still tired. =/

OH!

Valley Voyages is in the Akron Journal! Kris from the office called our house and told us I was in the paper. =p

I'm going to get a paper after golf. =)

I'll will either change my blog background and playlist tonight or sometime tomorrow.

Oh, and if anyone has any pictures from dinner or the dance, please send them to me! =D

Tomorrow Marks A Special Occasion

Friday the 13th is the1 year anniversary of my blog.

Yep.

What message does that give us?

=p


Last night I woke up at 1 in the morning after having a dream that the power was out at my house. The dream was so realistic, that when I went to go to the bathroom and then get a glass of water (makes no sense I know) I used a flashlight. Then as I was coming back to my room, I tripped on the cat and got so angry I turned on the light in my room to find him and was like "Oh."

=D


Physics we watched a Myth Busters. I don't really like that show so I kinda fell asleep.

Math we reviewed, people asked the same questions and Mr. Lawrence answered all of them. He yelled at everyone in the end to study though and that he won't be doing that anymore.

So many passes today, didn't have time to study for Spanish, but that's okay because I knew everything anyways.

Delivered some to Mr. J, he was like o.o "Whoa, what are you doing here delivering passes?!"

=p

Spanish the test was easy as pie, and I like pie so that's twice as good. =p

History we reviewed over the test.

Art Cy and I were sillies. =p

English class was boring, Ryan and I had fun with sticky notes. We'd write something on them and stick them to our heads and we had a whole conversation. =p

Came home, played some more horrible games of pool and then Devvy Chan and I fell asleep on the couch in the basement.

Went shopping after dinner.

Got your Valentines Day treats (finally =p).

Put them all together, so they're ready to rock and roll tomorrow!

Got all my homework done.

Now to catch up on blog posties and tweets then go to sleep!

My Foot Is Asleep

Hamilton is laying on it right now, asleep. At least he's not crashing into my window...

Today was the city reads thing. I read the Bell Jar and got so into it I didn't notice class had started. Then I was all tired and zoned out from reading.

Had a quiz and there were a lot of questions with things we didn't even go over or anything. =/

Geometry we learned: SOH-CAH-TOA to help us remember sin, cos, and tan. His sentence was: Some old horse caught another horse taking oats away.

Well...Caramel and I made our own instead....

Some Omish Hippies Can Annoy Hoes Touching Other Arses.

Yep.

Be jealous.

Had so many passes today to give out.

Late for lunch.

Spanish was alright.

History we did nothing. I decided I'm gonna take honors gov. and econ.

Art I kept on punching Cyrus and then I drew on his scratch thing. =p

English did more fooling around.

Devvy chan rode my bus home.

We talked, did homework, and then ate dinner. I went downstairs to play pool while her and JJ did Wii.

Was bad at pool.

Then a whole bottle of lotion spilled all in the back park of my backpack and I started crying because I was upset about playing pool so badly and it was all over my shit and I thought there was too much to wash out (in the end mom got it all out though).

Now I just realized that I have to do math homework and stay up later.

I might as well not get any sleep at all and make my mood even more sour since I'm on a roll.

There Is Something Seriously Wrong With My Cat

He runs into my bedroom, jumps on my bed springboards off on me and into the window.

Then leaves.

And repeats.

He must be on some hard core kitty drugs or something...

ily.

OMG

HAMILTON IS EATING MY ENGLISH HOMEWORK!

(HAMILTON IS MY CAT).

Seriously.

Now I have to reprint it.

HE'S A CAT FOR CHRISTS SAKE!

*headdesk*

ily.

If You Cut Me I Suppose I Would Bleed the Colors of the Evening Stars

I'm addicted to Owl City right now. =p

Had the scheduling classes yesterday.

Methinks I will take honors Gov. and Econ (and yes they have it, it says it on the purple sheet).

I dunno. Jess says it's easy, mostly just lecture, take notes, then test, then more lecture, then more notes, then another test. Peaches says to go into honors too.

Thinking of going into Honors Chemistry. I dunno why I haven't been taking honors science classes, I'm good at science if I actually pay attention and apply myself. Something I'm starting to do in physics.

Know I'm dropping down to regular English again. Just can't do honors. I've always had A+'s in English since 1st grade. But I just can't do honors English. Either that, or I just can't do Newcomer's class.

Her tests are so stupid and such a bitch...

Also, I hate vocabulary. I've never remembered a single word we're learn and I normally fail the vocab. tests because I either forget to do them, or fall asleep as I study.

And who the fuck needs to write how you pronounce it with the little accent things or whatever you call them?

Stupid.

Going to take web page design next year. Was gonna take it this year but you all know what happened.

Hope I make it to Spanish 2...

Can't wait for the City Reads thing. Get more of The Bell Jar read. I like reading anyways.

Talked to Billy for the first time in ages yesterday, it was nice. =)

Got home, and had a headache to I took an Advil and slept from 3:30-5:30. Got up, ate dinner, did all my other homework and then watched Hero's with my Dad.

Was too tired to do the essay questions, which didn't matter anyways since the test today didn't have an essay.

Study hall today was fun.

The lady at the guidance desk handed us about 10 passes. I went "Oh my gosh, it's a pass explosion!" and she chuckled and was like "Wow, you're funny." =p

I made up a game with the passes too! You shuffle them, and pick them out, and then you add up the room numbers. Whoever has the lowest sum wins!

=D

Today marks the day of Cy and I being together for 2 months now. =)

There was a paragraph from the Grapes of Wrath on the history test. While I was reading it I was thinking "Why does this seem so familiar..." Then I saw the author and book title. =p

Abused Cyrus in art today. If his arm bruises I'm gonna laugh. =p

English was awesome.

Newcomer was in the classroom for only 5 minutes before she left to help peeps in the library. Max hid in her little closet thing and Jimmy smoked him out with Axe. Then we balled up one of Ellie's gloves and threw it around and played girls vs. boys pickle in the middle.

I made some good blocks. =p

Max, Vadict, and Jimmy roughed around a bit and hit and tackled each other. It was funny. =p

Then Max hid in the closet again and when Newcomer came back, she couldn't find him in it and he walked out right before she locked it. =p

The bell rang, and I ran into Carlos and hugged him. I miss giving Carlos hugs. =/

Talked to Mike for the first time in ages as well.

Beat Greg on the big 2 days in a row now!

Devvy chan's mom finally got the info to us this afternoon so Devvy chan will be sleeping over my house from tomorrow until Monday while her mom and mom's ex husband and now boyfriend again go on vacation.

Cleaned the guestroom out, did my physics and Spanish. Will do English tomorrow.

Now to catch up on youtube vids.

Catch Some Z's

Bigger blog post...tomorrow...I am tired from geometry, Spanish, and attempting to look at history essay questions (thank goodness it's open note).

Not feeling well.

I'll be damned if I'm sick for the dance.

Mrs.Newcomer still has my recommendation schedule...

Clashes between honors classes and average to failing grades or normal classes with high grades.

Meh.

Nighty night world.

Why Don't We Get Drunk and Screw?

Dad and I listened to Jimmy Buffet on the way to golf practice today, I thought it suited our warmish weather and melting snow. =p

Did really well at practice today. Was beastly with my 7 iron.

Spent most of the day finishing up my history notes for the test. I'm all organized. Gonna do the exam questions tomorrow.

I hope I didn't have any other homework...

Thank goodness for study hall!

=D

I Wonder...

Do you think they'd play Unchained Melody by Righteous Brothers at the dance if I request it?

Yeah, I don't think so either...I guess Cyrus and me will have to slow dance to Soulja Boy or something.

=/

Slept in until 12 today. Once again I thought my Dad had died or something for not yelling at me at how late in the day it was.

Worked out and then read some more of The Bell Jar until he came over.

We went and rented Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist and made some popcorn. =D

After that we played hide and seek upstairs.

I hid behind the lazy boy chair and he couldn't find me for a long time. My Dad was sitting in it while I was behind it and Cyrus was like "Um...can I have a clue?"

My Dad only told him I was on the first floor and then he went off into the dining room I think and I heard him go "Could she fit in here...?" and my Dad and I started laughing hysterically. =p

That's about it.

Golf tomorrow and stuffs.

Hmmm...I'm feelin' like eating a Klondike Bar right now...

=p

ily.

Ah ha...

From the blog of Mr. Johansson...

"Make sure you read over your notes, all the readings form the textbook, and read up on current data about the markets and economy. If you haven't been in class lately, view the notes as given in class here. Oh, and btw, it's an open-note test. Don't tell anyone..."

SPREAD THE WORD FOLKS, OPEN-NOTE TEST IN MR. JOHANSSON'S CLASS!!!

Behind

Ugh...way behind on blogging, posts, tweets, and youtube videos.

I can't even remember what I need to blog about, I'm kinda tired...

Lets see...

Yesterday...

I got my hair cut and restyled!

I like it a lot, Shannon cut it so it was like a mix of what my mom wanted and what I wanted. So now everyone is happy. =D

Went to Micky D's then to Office Max to buy a freaking $100 (actually it was $105.67 but who cares).

Cyrus is going to teach me how to work it and put tetris on it! =D

I guess that makes it worth the price...the tetris. =p

Dad was out of town, so the madness was stopped for the day.

Actually....scratch that, there was some madness, but not fighting madness.

So I'm in the shower and all of a sudden there's a banging on the door and my mother asks in this stressed voice "Ashley, I need you to come out right now and help me."

So I got out, slipped on my sweats and t-shirt and I open the door and there's my mother standing in the doorway with one of our bigger hand guns that we have in the house.

She was like "I think there's someone in the basement, I heard a crash, and both the pets are upstairs."

Now mind you, it's 11:30 at night, JJ is asleep, and it's really quite in the house. I suggested that we turn the alarm on and let the motion sensor get them, but that was when we were already at the basement door so she just said "Well I'm already here and have the gun."

My job was to stand at the top of the stairs with the phone and if I hear a gun shot, I was to call 911 and shut the door behind me.

Pretty scary when your mother tells ya that.

Also pretty scary when my mother basically only has one arm, which is her left one, which is weak from her stroke, which I bet would make it really hard to pull the trigger. Her legs are also bad and she can't walk right because of all the shots she has to get and because of her stroke.

It's kinda like a healthy person just getting out of a car crash and taking a gun down to shoot some ninja's down in your basement. Except my mother had a stroke and has nerve damage in her right arm, and is going down to shoot some poor sucker sneaking down into our basement.

And lemme tell you, my Mom has damn good aim.

In the end though, a bunch of plastic cups or whatever were blown over by the vent, which in turn knocked something off my Dad's bar.

I slept lightly though.

During our physics lab I really started pumping out the perverted jokes until everyone started saying "That's what he/she said" after every sentence.

We were a group of giggling goobers. =p

Decided to help out in the guidence office during my study hall with Jess. =)

I saw Devvy Chan while delivering a pass!

Spanish class we played the fly swatter game which is always fun!

History we had our practice OGT's. I'm gonna be honest, I didn't really try, and the extended reponses I did answer, I pretty much BSed and made up a bunch of shit. Some of which probably doesn't make any sense at all but oh well. =p

Hey, I was planning on making little smiley faces with the bubbles and drawing pictures in the extended reponses or little comics to explain my answer. =p

Art class was interesting....for the amout of time I was in it that is...heh...

English class we had a vocab test that I didn't know about. I actually think I did better on this one than all the other ones strangly. Cheers to cramming!

Got home, and Ryan invited me over to his place with Andy and Peaches.

Fell asleep while waiting for Dad to come back from taking the dog for a walk the dog.

Had fun at the party. We ordered pizza hut and stuffs. =)

That's about it...

Now to catch up on all my shit.

All Decked Out

I know it's 10 days until Valentines Day...but I couldn't wait any longer (even though I told Peaches I would change the blog 3 days before =p).

New playlist, new background, new title, new colors. The works.

After this post I'm going to put a section in the sidebar linking you to all my other blog playlists so far if you're not feelin' the love. =p

There was a TON of snow this morning. Complete whiteout at my house. Bus got to the school at the 2nd bell.

Got all my missed homework. Discovered that my calculator doesn't have the correct shit to do our classwork and homework with, so Mom and I are going to go out and buy that freaking $50 that I'll need for Algebra 2 anyways, and that has the needed buttons.

At least I can play games on it...and tetris! =D

Study Hall I ate my Irish ballz and got some work done.

Emilee and I were talking about Mr. Cash and she was talking about the "Gary Loves Amy" desk. I sat at that desk last year. It's called that because someone carved (yes carved, who has that kind of time I dunno) that into the desk.

Apparently it's in Cathrin's Geometry room now.

Hmmm... =/

It's migrated.

=p

Cyrus came and gave me my present during study hall!!

It was a picture he drew!!

I swear I showed it to anyone that had eyes and could see.

THIS IS IT (yes I know it's a bad pic of it...)



I love it. ^-^

Ya see, there's Cyrus, and I (wearing toe socks of course) and we're in front of my house. His car is parked in the drive way (it kinda looks like an aligator car =p) and in the sky are the adult and teenage hawks that live in our backwoods.

=D

Mom said she wants to see Cy get his hair like that, with the little lock sticking up. =p

It's hanging up on my wall now, I'm thinking of framing it. =)

History class I basically outlined something in magic marker, then sat under a desk. =p

Art I finished my designs.

English I didn't do anything because my computer wasn't working.

I'll do what we have to do tomorrow though.

Got home, waited for JJ to come home, and we worked out. Only did a light workout though, I'm tired.

Did my homework and stuffs.

Everyone is still grumpy and one another but it seems to have lessened.

Dad is still in the basement though.

Mom ranted to me about the more stupidity that's happening involving my grandmother.

JJ poked me today and I gave him a hug and then that was about the end of all contact I've had with him today besides the working out.

He's on the computer watching Voyager episodes on Youtube.

Hmmm...that's about it...

=)

Taking The Day Off

Turns out I didn't need to fake sick, I guess my back didn't want to go to school either. Was killing me. =/

Slept most of the day.

Woke up at 12:18 and went down to get food.

Worked on the stuff to Valentines Day up my blog.

The playlist is complete.

I can't wait to post it up. =D

Should be happening sometime next week.

Dad is in a fit and mom is way stressed.

Dad's mom got really sick in Florida and refused to eat because she puked, which in turn made her so weak that she fell on the steps to their little trailer they go to for the winter there.

She's been in the hospital, and apparently she's gotten worse.

My grandpa refuses to learn how to use a cell phone, they still haven't called their doctor here in Ohio, and now we've just heard they've been giving her the wrong medication.

Mom is stressed and raging because of all the stupidity at the hospital and is pitching a bitch about Dad's parents. Dad is in a fit because his mother is in the hospital, and Mom is pitching a bitch about his parents.

JJ is crying because Dad is yelling at him over stupid shit due to the fact that he is in a fit because his mother is in the hospital, and Mom is pitching a bitch about is parents.

So now Mom is stressed and upset because Dad is yelling at her for pitching a bitch about his parents and yelling at JJ for no reason because he's in a fit over his mother being at the hospital which is making JJ cry, which pisses my Mom off and causes her a whole other person to deal with.

This in turn makes JJ pissed and crying because Dad is yelling at him and yelling at Mom, who is yelling at Dad, so now JJ is yelling at Dad for yelling at him and yelling at Mom and saying he hates his life, the world, and him.

So now Dad's pissed and hurt at JJ's words, his mother being in the hospital, and Mom pitching a bitch at his parents and now yelling at him for yelling at JJ.

So now, my brother is crying in his room and refusing to come out, Mom is in the garage smoking a pack of cigs while ranting to her mother, and Dad is down in the basement with the dog.

I on the other hand am sitting upstairs with the cat really wishing that I could have just gone to school and stayed there.

*sigh*

On better news, I came up with an epic idea for Cyrus' Valentines Day present!

It's so win.

I've gotten many "aaaaawwweee"s over it. =D

Moo...I Dunno...The Creative Juices Just Aren't Flowin'

Today Jessica's sister brought in Irish candy (I call them Irish Ballz) and they were really good. I still have some in a little cookie bag, I'm gonna snack on them in study hall tomorrow. =)

Left my history binder in Spanish, so I'll have to get it tomorrow. We didn't need it today anyways.

Art was...meh...I hate what we're doing...although I'm barely even doing what we're supposed to be doing...

We have to make 24 designs in little squares, and then pick one to scratch out on scratch paper.

All my patterns suck...the ones I finished at least...most of the squares are only half filled...

=/

I had a Cyrus to keep me entertained though. =p

English we had a practice reading OGT. Half assed my way through that.

Writing tomorrow, I don't think I'm gonna do it. It's not like we can combine our extra points from the test.

I'll just write nice notes to the teacher in the extended responses, and bubble in little pictures. =p

Got home, worked out.

So out of shape it makes me wanna cry.

Ryan's workout party this Friday outta be great...

Was on and offline a bit today.

When it was dark out (and have you noticed it's been getting darker later and later?) I slipped on my mega huge Ohio State hoodie, my favorite x-mas slippers, and my fuzzy gloves. Quietly went outside on the porch and climbed up the deck table, and onto the box things we keep the chair cushions in for out there.

After about 20 minutes a little bunny came out from the pine trees near the deck. At first it was trudging through the snow before stopping. I guess it thought "Fuck this" before hippity-hopping across the snow and into the side field.

It made a cool little hippity-hop trail. =p

Saw 3 plains in the air, they almost looked like they were gonna hit each other.

There were weird sounds coming from Nut Boy's barn too. I hope he keeps it heated...that poor horise...

Actually he has 2 I think now....

=/

After about 2 hours I went downstairs to watch Hero's with Dad and now I'm here.

Thinking of faking sick tomorrow. I just want a whole day of quite and sleep. =/

Do you have to retake a practice OGT?

Hmmmm....
