I'm back on LJ! I haven't been spending much time on here for quite a while, if anybody noticed. Myspace had taken my attention. So anyway, what is up all?

WOW! IIII'mm BAAaAACk!

Anyway, I was thinking about that welcome back Katrina thing and I don't know what happened to that. I know it was moved to a later date or something, but I was wondering if I missed it. I probably have. .__.
If so when was it? I thought it might have been when I was gone at my family reunion. Oh, yes me and my dad managed to team up and remain undefeated for the seventh year in a row, in horseshoes! Actually first time I've teamed up with him, but this is his seventh year in a row undefeated.

Yay, to swimming tomorrow!

Pig Picking was awesome!
I got some great pictures, lol! I will laugh over them for eternity!
I wasted another day. Poor Cut And Paste. I looks so lonely and incomplete. Never let anyone(Kenneth) read a manga you know they are bound to like, if you like it and want to have a chance to read more than the first volume. They will bend up the manga and then go to the only BooksAMillion within a reasonable distance and selfishly buy the rest of the series. No consideration for the person that introduced them to the manga!!GRRRRRRR Even though you kindly offered to let them borrow future volumes from you.
Anyway, I guess it's not really a big deal, just extremely irritating. If you knew Kenneth you would understand. I will now have to order those mangas.... ;,(

Hey! I just wanted to remind everybody that my pig picking is on Saturday. I know it hasn't been that long since I posted about it, but I'm still not sure who's coming. Dustin, Becky Clarkson, Rebbecca Richard, and Amy are the only ones I know for sure. It will start anytime after 1:00pm. I don't know if Katrina is home yet but you're invited of course. I don't know Kendra's number or Jonathon or Steven's, but you can all come too. I kind of need to tell my parents about how many people will be coming so if you could just comment and say if you're coming or not, that would be great! Donna you better say you're coming this time! I won't force you to eat pig, lol!

Oh, and some of us are going to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith tomorrow afternoon sometime, if anybody wants to go!

Happy 4th Of July Everyone!!
I'm having another Pig Picking on the 9th, this Saturday. So anyone who came last time or wants to go this time it's sure to be a lot of fun. We have a pool, trampoline, horse-shoes, volley-ball, bad-mitten, deviled eggs, potato salad, and pig! Lots of other stuff too! Hope everybody comes! My number is 919-751-0399, if there is any questions. Oh, and what's happening with the Katrina welcome back party thing?

I just learned I severely dislike corny puns to show off cut abs. Have any band aides for these cuts? : P Girls like me because I can wash their clothes....on my abs! : P

I watched a special on TV about Green Day today. It was interesting. I think it's funny how if your famous and there is some kind of biography type of thing about you, everything is so much more dramatic then when it might happen to anyone else. I like Green Day a little more after watching it though. I'm going to finish cleaning my room tonight! hooraaay .__.

I went to the Books A Million one day sale today and got a few books. I wanted to try reading these two different Mangas. One is called The Tennis Prince, I think, for some reason I can't remember! It's about tennis anyway and since I recently took up the sport, I thought it would be an interesting read. It's written by a tennis player that decided to become well, a writer. The other one is called Candidate Goddess. It seems very interesting. I got a book about astrology also. Astrology has always interested me, even if I don't think I completely believe in all of it. The last book I got was an art book on bunch of artists. I figure if I want do something with art in my future I should further my knowledge on the subject. I really hope I find the energy to start reading these books tomorrow. We had to get a new monitor and the sound I now have figured out, isn't going to cooperate with me. I hear nothing, Grrrr! Anyway, I started cleaning my room today. I like the change I've made to it already.

I haven't been on LJ in a while and already I try to bore all of you with this boring subject, sorry! : P

Well I just can't seem to make myself go to sleep before 12:00am. I haven't had a dream I can remember in awhile. Maybe if I could force myself to go to sleep at a descent time my brain would be able to function properly. Has anybody else had any sleeping problems this summer, lately, or whatever?

What to talk about...

What to talk about....

!!!!
^ ^

What is everyone's opinion as to what may be the meaning of life?

My best response would be, hmmmm, maybe there is none!?

I wanted to talk about tags. I find them to be an interesting tool to make my LJ excessively organized. I've started using them and found them to be mildly amusing. It might be kind of late in coming, but I was wondering if anybody else has paid any attention to they're new existence on LJ? When I post on other's LJs I haven't noticed any, not that I really looked. I don't know how helpful they actually are. Does anybody even use them, besides me? Dustin's dog has finally bitten me, oww. We still haven't found the tip of my finger! No, just kidding, it wasn't real bad, if you consider an open gash that needed 25 stiches to close, not REAL BAD! :O

Actually, it was just a little cut. Serves me right for grabbing her nose while she chewed on an old Charlie bone, lol. I think this entry shall be added to my 'random crap' tag. : )

I made cookies myself for the first time this morning/afternoon. My mom separated the dough and baked them. They turned out pretty yummy. : )

I went to Books A Million and saw Jonathin and Kendra! They were looking at comics and anime. I was searching for a book on Art History. Which they didn't even bother to have a section on Art, Grrrr! ;,( They did have a large section on Christian Living I noticed. Which is important, but what about art?

Being tired was a big part of my day, coincidentally now I'm yawning, lol! It wasn't the tired want to sleep kind of tired. It was more like achey don't know what I want to do or have the energy for it.

I have really been getting into LJ recently. I really like my LJ's new set up and I'm happy more people have been commenting on my entries! : )

I was at Subway of all places when a 'friend' told me I wasn't Catholic. I guess because I don't go to church. Which I actually do occasionally. It really pissed me off. Then because I wasn't baptized. I was like yeah my grandma baptized me and she was definitely Catholic. Apparently since a priest didn't do it, that's not good enough. For me that's plenty. I believe in God and I practice religion. This person doesn't know why I don't go to church regularly. I don't feel like I need to give money to a church or sing in church choir to be Catholic. I might not believe in every Catholic belief, but you don't tell someone about how they should consider themselves religiously. Sure there are other more personal reasons I don't go to church. It isn't because I'm cheap or not inspired by God. Honestly, I felt like saying fuck off bitch, but I didn't. Maybe it wouldn't have angered me like it did if this person hadn't said it before and if it didn't make it to my ears sounding as rude as it had. I don't dislike this person and I am forgiving, but that really made me look at them a little differently. People that go to church seem to think of themselves as somehow superior to everyone who doesn't. Not all of them I guess, but so many. There are so many things I want to say about it, but I won't. Talking about things doesn't always make them better.

What is everyone's opinion on bringing up religion amongst friends?

I figured out how to customize my journal, it was confusing and took about an hour longer than it should have, lol! Does anyone that matters like the way it looks. That would be anybody that has commented previously on my journal! Oh, and new friends also :p! Anyone that feels like commenting now that my entries have cooler mood icons, a better layout, and theme, may do so. <3333333

Me and Rebbecca Richard are going to see a movie tomorrow, Batman Begins or something else(hopefully). I heard B.B. was good, but it just looked dumb to me. Anyway, we're going out to eat afterward to Torero's hopefully, because now I'm addicted! <3333 We are trying to get a bunch of people to go(to the movie and eat), so if you want to go just call 751-0399 or comment on here and tell me. If anybody hates mexican or really wants to go somewhere else really bad, we're flexible! We need to decide the eating place probably before-hand though, we don't want that car fiasco again do we Dustin, lol!

I saw Saw, it was really scary at the end. My dad guessed very near the beginning of the movie what the final devastatingly horrific twist was at the end of the movie. He always has to say some random off the wall explanation about the plot in mysteries within like two minutes. Seriously, it is scary, the end is soooo scary. I mean the rest of the movie is kind of depressing, but thinking of the end is still sending chills up my spine now. The plot is one of the most well established plots I have ever seen in a movie. It is disturbing and I would recommend this to anyone that likes movie twists. If somebody doesn't like this movie for the at least plot, they are very strange. This movie is much better than Darkness. I hope everyone sleeps better than I will if I dream about that movie. Maybe to get over it I'll watch some dumb comedy before bed.

My alarm didn't go off this morning, so instead of waking up early to study, I had to waste my morning leisure time(getting up, eating, whatever) studying, Yay! My mom was pissed because I took a shower which took up the extra time that made me late for school. I'm so glad that I have an awesome, understanding, nice teacher, Mrs. Davis, that let me come in late with my book bag and stuff and do work instead of sending me to the choice room. My morning was sucking. Then I got to Pre Calculus and had to take a test which I was unprepared for, but my brain's subconcsious back up emergency memory I think pulled me through without, thinking positively with no careless mistakes, without failing. I got to Civics and took another test that I got lucky on with my sensory perception of things she goes over, my brain chooses usually to remember things that specifically happen to be on the test. Of course I didn't know some of it, luckily we had a lunch break in between the middle of the test, for me at least, and since I have smart friends, who know who they are, I got a little help. After Civics I pushed myself to Biology, we had to take a quiz, I probably mixed everything up. Everything so far was going relatively well, then........................................................WORD WALL!! She called on a few people who didn't know there words, no blame on Donna (who knows what Obligate Aerobe is, besides Dustin), she called on some who never have any idea or close to none. She decided from then on we were going to get quizzes, she had to give me something to have looming over my thoughts during my beloved three day weekend! OH MY GOSH! I wanted to scream!! Just because she doesn't want to put any more effort into a fricken word wall, that I contributed time for because she lied about reviewing for a test which caused me to also miss the Renaissance Party, doesn't mean she gets to screw up my WEEKEND OF RECOVERY the other people in my classes weekend of recovery, who originally I wasn't thinking about but who were also in the same predicament, and give us a twenty word vocabulary quiz, I don't care how easy, how many words even, or when we were taking it, I don't want to have to worry about it!! Whoa, run on sentence, lol! It was my fault that I had so many problems this week with getting homework done, and I don't want to make excuses, but come on. WHEN IS SUMMER BREAK, my brain needs sleep! I have to get my "looming" Pre Calculus note cards done so I can turn them in late tomorrow, so I can get minus five points and I'm still up at 1:20, why do I do stupid things, I guess I just want to make things harder for myself. I'm tired of complaining, which I guess is me complaining again. No poetry this time for my journal entry, sorry for its badly "writtenness", and if it was randomly put together! I don't think my thought processes are working effectively anymore. Everyone have a great weekend, hopefully with thoughts preferably not of anything school related, if only it were possible! For its possibility I can say, I have a dream, lol. Good Morning forrr sleep.........yawn.....

Scary, Resentful, And Crushed

Difficulties breathing,
I might just start heaving,
Want to talk to you,
You just end up leaving,

When I see you again,
You act like you don't even want to be my friend,
Your hypocritical and easily deterred,
It's no longer easy to pretend,

I always tried to listen,
While I stared and watched you glisten,
I would impatiently try to wait for the right moment,
But I could never get any words in,

My attention is spent,
You owe me some of what I've lent,
I guess I gave you too much attention,
You need to get bent!



Twisted

On the verge of tears,
Brain kills all thoughts of bliss,
Don't know all of what I missed,
My ignorance feeds my fears,

Thinking to hard and too much,
Don't have the motivation,
Need to confess and fix this improvisation,
Numb fingers hold my minds crutch,

I need an escape,
A place to fly where people see all of you for good,
I need to stand in a way I have never stood,
Release brings change and my soul needs to take new shape,

Somewhere my conscience gets lost,
So does my direction,
My emptiness craves affection,
Change is dire but there is a cost,

What hurts me can't be right,
My insides are constantly getting twisted,
Only words can fix it,
And I won't fail at life without a fight!

Tonight I'm going to try and go to bed by 10, or maybe 11, probably 12. Last night insomnia lasted until about 4:00am, Woo Hoo! I guess it is not really insomnia because then I could get up after just a few hours, but I of course wasted my day again and didn't wake up until about a minute before one. I opened my eyes and freaked out when I saw what time it was. I use to consider myself a morning person, so much for that! Today I went to Chili's and had some OK grilled shrimp alfredo and some really good and extremely hot south western egg rolls that I dropped absentmindedly onto my clean clothes! Sometimes I feel like I have aged extremely quickly and I was already a responsible acting adult and now I'm some old aching fart who can't remember anything and drops food on himself more than in his own mouth, lol. After Chili's me and my mom went to Wal-Mart, yay, and I was so excited because I was going to get a cd and a game for my nintendo ds finally, but no, their selection sucked and was unorganized. I did get some peanut butter panic, blue bunny brand ice-cream. I recommend it highly to any ice-cream lovers! I also got a cool looking watch. It is uncomfortable, but it was only about eight dollars so what could I have expected right. Now I'm home and my tongue feels weird because I burnt during dinner. Dustin told me about another date with Misti, I curious to know how that went! Dustin if you read this how was it, lol! I really wish I knew how to do pictures like on Donna's journal. Donna do you have a free account? I found a cool new picture of the phoenix for my live journal. I think I have changed it quite frequently in the last few days.
