So, Go school?

No, Well... Maybe. I just woke up from a nap, I think I'm going to do that everyday, It's perfect, now I can do my homework, which is just Reading and studying for a test tomorrow. Which is perfectly fine. I did good on my reading quiz today in history, not Like I wouldn't... Why wouldn't I? Who said I would do bad? YOU?! Wow, you suck. Wait... No you don't, you rock. More than anyone I'll ever know. I need to go read some more for history, so I can pass another one... What's that? You don't think I'll pass? Wow, that's rude, can't believe you. JUST KIDDING!
So, I'm still kinda out of it. But I'm gonna go now, have a good day everybody.

Sleep is Welcomed

These days are too long, way too long. It's is so lame how long they are. I've talked to people and they've said: NO! It's way shorter than block days! But I disagree, I can't wait to actually START work in class! Because as it is, the classes drag on forever, it's so lame. I get cold in some of my classes too, maybe I'll bring a jacket today or something. I like my history class a lot, Mr. Eubank was Indiana Jones yesterday, so much fun,
My mum is telling me how in her dream she was on a beach in RIO.... RANDOM!!! lol
My house is cold... As it always is. I'm going to SO take a nap when I get home today, these long days sure do drain me! So, Ya, I'll take when when I get home. Jackie stays at school really late, because she has choir after school, I come home as quick as I can, and I'm not in my classes ONE minute longer than I'm forced to be! I'm going to go cuddle under a blanket with the couch now... And try and be warm before we leave. By everyone, have a good day doing your work and such! Bye!

First day of school part 2

School was so long... I do NOT remember school being that long! What the heck!
I went to homeroom, and that was just lame, nobody sat next to me, and only the weird teacher talked to me. I went to first period which was stupid zoology, I took that so I would be with my friends, and only Michelle is in that class with me, it's so lame, and Mr. Johnson gets on my nerves, but I think I can struggle through the class, it won't be hard, it'll just be very lame and boring, lol.
OK, this next part might offend some people, not gonna lie, so if you are of the Hispanic race... You might not want to read on for fear of being insulted, not on purpose toward you I promise.
I walked into second period Algebra two, and I was the ONLY one in the class, it was completely silent, then the bell rang and I was still alone, all of a sudden about 30 kids show up.... And none of them are white. Every single one is Hispanic, and I was like... "Am I in the right class?" Because none of them were speaking English, they sat down and it got INSANELY loud, and it was like... Spanish on EVERY side of me, EXCEPT for the stupid swear words, those were in English, and they were also like.. Every other word, it was so annoying... I wanted to scream like... halfway through the class.
Third period was Photography two, that was decent, it's the only class I have with Chase, I'm gonna miss having all my classes with him. Fourth was band, and that was OK too... Ugh I have practice tonight, I'm not excited... AT ALL!
Fifth period was AP history, that is probably going to be my favorite class, I love history, and the teacher is awesome! He's so funny, he called Price a "Tall TALL chunk of sexy" lol so funny.
Then Lunch, which I was totally cool with. Then I went to AP English, I like that class too. I have to do a six words that describe me thing... I've got a few ideas. Which sounds better?
"Painted my own picture of happiness"
or
"I struggled; then reaped the rewards"
Think hard.. Because I NEED TO KNOW, for an assignment. Thanks guys, you all rock. :)

I can never get on the computer

Since the computer is locked. The only time I have to blog is like... 6 pm... And I don't LIKE blogging then, because every one's home, and my family is very snoopy and read over my shoulder.... It's really not a nice thing. But, whatever, that's why I don't blog as much anymore.
Nothing new is going on anyways. I start band stuffs tomorrow. Leadership training, it'll take forever, I know it... Because it did last year too. Ah well, it's just something you've got to do I guess. Nothin to it. But until tomorrow, nothing new has happened. I still get up and go joggin', and then come in and watch TV, and then, pretend like I went into the kitchen and found something to eat. Which I never really do. Only diet food existed in my house this last week, until, YESTERDAY, we went to Costco. I have a bit of a tummy ache, it was way worse last night. I couldn't fall asleep until like... 1 am, even after being on meds and stuff, it was just.. agony. OK, Well... I only wrote this morning because my mummy forgot to lock the computer. Thanks everyone who reads this... Which is like one person now. Hmm, All of a sudden I feel very unpopular, not that I ever WAS popular, I just happen to feel less so right now. OK, hope to see you.... soon. Whoever you are... My one reader, you KNOW who you are, I KNOW who you are... See you tomorrow?....

Aight my Homies, I'm back on for now

OK, My mum has officially locked my computer when she's at work. So, when I would normally blog, I can't. So I'm blogging at like nine oclock, which is not something I usually do.
I got my Young Women's Madillion FINNALY today, it's so pretty, I absalutly love it! And it's abou ttime I got it! Bishop's promised it for like... months now.
I wish I was a fish, and I could swim in the ocean in a place where I didn't have to be aftaid. And I wish that I could feel the water swimming by, and I wouldn't have to worry about drowning, because I'd be a fish. And I wish that my webcam worked, so I could make videos. And I wish I had a turkey sandwhich... Actually, that one I could very easily do! Like... Right now, maybe in a moment, I just had a bite of Jackie's and it's amazing. OK, Got to go the store with my mum now, by everybody!

Strawberry Chapstick

One Day, you'll look back to those times we were together and what will you remember about me? The fact that my favorite colour is green? Or that I am OVERLY obsessed with Harry Potter? That I love the killers and they pretty much rock my world? That I watch what not to wear and laugh because I often dress like the people being scolded for their outrageous looks? That I really like Carl's Jr. or those awesome Chocolate Swirl shakes from Arby's? That the doctor says I'm 20 pounds overweight, and that I go jogging and still can't lose anything? That I love taking pictures, but don't get the opportunity to be in them often? Or will you remember things like: how my dad makes crazy jokes and watches the Avatar? And my mum's lost a TON of weight on this amazing diet she's on?
Will you remember that I can't really swim? Or that I have an irrational and totally pointless fear of Zombies? How about that I play softball... ish? And that I love it, even if I'm a bit slow at picking things up? Will you remember my extreme converse? Or that my comfort food is Ben and Jerry's Phish Food Ice cream? Will you remember that my food storage is 75% tomatoes? Or just maybe, that the only kind of chap stick I wear is the strawberry kind?
Think about it... Is anything I do a strong memory? Do I stand out?

Who will be my friend?

Will you be my friend? When everything is lost, when we are alone, when I don't know what to think or even your name. Will you still be my friend when I can't golf and make us lose the tournament? Will you still be my friend when all I do is argue and complain? When I can't recall what you said to me last week let alone this morning? Will you still be my friend, when our communication fails, and my espn goes out? What about if I become famous? And I turn into a complete Jerk, but deep down I'm still me? Will you still love me then? Will you still be my friend, if ALL I do with my life is work the cash register at Mcdonals, and can't afford to do anything but love? Will you still love me if I stop following my standards? Will you still be my friend if I'm hypocritial to EVERYTHING you do and say? What if I don't follow the rules? What if I can't eat anything but salami for the rest of my life and my breath smells bad for... forever! Will you still be my friend then> When all of me has become obsolete, and I crumble away into nothingness.... Will you still love me then? Will you still be my friend? Will you still Feel I am of worth somehow? Now.... Think hard... and let me know if YOU will still love ME.

Jackie wants me to "Shut Up"

Jackie broke the speakers on our computer, so, I have to use some really messed up headphones, so I don't think it should matter if I sing the songs that I'm listening to. She's the one that broke the speakers!
I've got to clean my house.
I think I'll do that after this.
A striking runway entrance.
Of popular teens.
When I loved in Denver, I met a millionaire, with ribbons in her blond hair.
She was everything to me.

Both alone in the dark, we long to see the sun, I was sick of the west when I turned 21, so I moved to the sunshine state.
The solar flairs burned my arms and made her make up run, on our super something honeymoon.
So lovely, she was everything to me.
I was the youngest son of a congressman, and everything was my fault.
We played golf on the moon and tennis on the tennis like athletes of the something.
OK, look up Owl City, Super Honeymoon, it's a very excellent song.

I miss everybody... lets hang out? Yay!
Oh, and BTW, Dawn's back YAY! She's been gone for FOREVER! lol
Bay bug... Having fun at the band clinic? I hope so friend, your mum answered the phone yesterday, said you weren't home and that you were enjoying your time at the clinic. I miss you bud, lets spend time together.
Love Alley

I Shot the Sheriff

But I didn't shoot the deputy.
I was really craving pizza today, and I'm going to get it tomorrow. I'm SO excited! Because I really want it!
Jacklyn didn't flip the laundry, like dad told her to do like... two hours ago. That's not cool.
So, last week was Grant's birthday, "Happy birthday Grant!" Grant's birthday party is Saturday, and I'm going. Because Grant is my good friend! I'm getting him a really amazing present, CTR toe rings, green and yellow, and my matching ones will be blue and purple! We'll be best buggy buddies forever! Oh, only certain people will get that! Oh, and btw, I love you all. Goodnight my friends and family, and peeps!

The Spirit Was There For Me

When I went to EFY, I was struggling. I didn't feel good enough. I felt like I wasn't pretty like all the girls I know, and I didn't feel like my testimony was strong. In my head I didn't feel like the other girls in my ward should be looking up to me. Because at church, I try and act all cool, and it's stupid, and everyone MUST have thought I knew what I was talking about. But it's been really hard for a long time. Earlier in the year I kinda got depressed, and I hid it very well, but I just... felt alone, and then I went to church and school and tried to pretend like I was someone I wasn't. And my spirit kinda dwindled. And my testimony fell away and I felt like It was lost.
I went into EFY last week, a bit lonely and scared. And that first night at EFY Mikael (my roommate and I) were preparing to give the devotional the next morning, and I were singing through all the hymns, and we started singing "How Great though Art" and the spirit was so strong I was just overwhelmed, and we said a prayer together, than I said my own prayer, and prayed that I'd be able to understand myself better and find what I was looking for.
Mikael and I sang "How great Though Art" to our devotional group of 7 other girls, where all of them cried. Then we went to gospel study, and we all went off into different directions and looked through the scriptures and read and... studied! And as soon as I sat down in that glorious sunlight my scriptures opened straight to Luke 15, Which is the parable of the prodigals Son. That seemed odd, I'd already read it in Seminary, but I read through it again, and I know the spirit opened me to those scriptures for a reason, that parable was about the Son who asked for his father's inheritance before he was even dead. He took his money and went and wasted it all on food and parties and such! And then, there was a drought, and all his money was gone, and he ended going to work shoveling food for swine. And at that time pigs were lower than dirt, and it was his job to feed them, therefor he was LOWER than lower than dirt. Then he realized that he was shoveling pig slop, wishing he could eat the pig slop, and the SERVANTS of his father were being fed. So he went to his father, and as he approached the house his father came out to greet him, because he was WATCHING for him, he knew he would return. And the son humbled himself and asked his father to let him become one of his servants because he wasn't worthy to be his son anymore, but wanted food. And the father sent the servants to get the best robe, and to put a ring on his finger, and kill the best cow for them to eat. And then the other son came in from working in the Fields, and was jealous and didn't understand how his father could give the son who had left the finest of things, when he the good son had been working and never left his father's side. And he confronted his father, and his father told him he ALREADY had all the fine things, but that he had never realized it because he had ALWAYS had the fine things!
This is an amazing parable, that teaches SO much. So many different concepts. I SO needed this, and then, the next day I went to the most amazing class, and Brother little opened the talk up with this parable, and he had people act it out, and the lesson was on comparison. And what are the odds that I would open t=o this scripture in gospel study, and then have a whole lesson on it! That was amazing. I am so touched by the spirit, and I understand that I SHOULDN'T compare myself to others! And our heavenly father is here to accept me and he loves me. And all I need to do is hold my head high, and not compare myself to others, because I AM good enough. And that was perhaps the most spiritual thing that's ever happened in my whole whole life, and probably why I LOVED EFY so much! Thank you heavenly father for this experience.

Mighty Storm

That was our company name at EFY, we would do the cheer you know, and then we would shout MIGHTY STORM! And then make a cool sound like thunder and move our hands like we were throwing lightning at people! It was pretty boss.
So, I want to hang out with friends tomorrow. So, tomorrow someone call me and set something up. I'd call Maren now, but I know her parents are pretty crazy about doing things on Sundays!
My house is cool. I'm soooo cold, like extremely! I'm under 2 different blankets and it's still CRAZY cold! My fingers are numb! For reals!
So, I took a nap earlier, and I was awoken before I was ready to get up. And I was grumpy, and I felt bad because I was being mean to everyone, and I'm really sorry to everyone I offended!
I wish I could dance, I'm so white, and I'm watching one of those lame dance movies that's on ABC family, and I want to dance like those lame people!
Ugh, after I woke up from my nap... TOO EARLY, my dad was watching that documentary on Mormons, and I hate that, because all these people are talking smack about Mormons, and saying things that aren't even true! It's like they're putting the comments on my YouTube video into a movie, and I hate that, and it' really isn't fair for people to judge us when they don't even understand. I had an amazing time at EFY, and I want to keep the spirit with me, and it upsets me how people are so stubborn and ignorant.
Ugh, it truly isn't fair at all.
