...and then i found a hundred dollars.

extended advisory today was much fun.
we played clue when we should have been talking about "teen issues".
then in english ms tonnu brought us ice cream and cookie dough and we danced to old 90s songs and gossip about that sara girl who ran for asembly coordinator while completely high. i mean, if your going to get high, do it when you not about to stand in front of your whole skool and all the teachers and give a speech about why your cool and responsible enough to be on student body council.
besides that....
i dont have any homework today. i didnt even bring any books home. to celebrate, i came online and just surfed for a while. its nice not to have a purpose once in a while. now i'm laying on my bed with my feet on the window sill.
it rained last night. i sleep with my window open, and around 2am, rain was comming into my room through the window (and the leak in my ceiling). still half asleep, i got up and went outside to the hammock and sat for a while, but then i got cold and wet so i came back in and went to sleep.

New! Get Free Horoscopes from Kwiz.Biz

wow, i'm pretty special.
and yes, i am a virgin (i'm not THAT bad), but how did they i'm in love?
i swear some days, its just written on my face.
three cheers for original people!

I'm a Citizens for Boysenberry Jam fan

my horoscope from today's LA Times says
"Just like the Green Day song, some times it seems like your shadow is the only one who walks beside you. If that's true, its only because you haven't extended enough invitations. Put yourself out there- you'll be embraced."
i just thought it was funny for the LA Times to be quoting Green Day songs. but then again it is the horoscope section, and the person writing it is named Holiday Mathis, and i can not for the life of me figure out if they are a girl or a boy, but hey... watever.

so i just got back from the chiro.... i honestly cant move, but the swelling should go down soon, or so says my doctor.
i wish skool would hurry up and get over with. we still have 26 days left of actual skool. not counting weekends, or exam week. i'm so tired. i've been trying to get everything squeezed in to the the remaining time, but since its still close to a month, i've already run out of gas. i think i need another weekend of nothing, but i'm booked solid for the rest of the skool year.

this weekend, mis padres are going to Napa for a wedding... normally that means me and the sisters are stuck at home with movies and ice cream, something i'm wishing for right now, but this i've really busy this weekend so mary's gonna come to drive us everywhere.... (only a year till my permit!!! i'm such a nerd, i've been dreaming of toyota prius's!)

anyway... this weekend goes like this:
friday night, going straight for skool to jandra's birthday.... thats asuming i can get a ride to westside with someone afterwards.
then saturday, kim has a track meet, and i have a lot of hw and napping to do...
that night we go to passover sedar at sara's house... and mary's going to pick us up afterwards at like a million o clock, because i'm waaaaaaay to tired for a sleepover.
then sunday, i have set completely aside for tv watching and relaxing, not just making up for lost sleep from this week.
and then volleyball practice. arg.

okok....
i'll stop now....
except for posting the coolest song on the planet. i listened to it on repeat the whole bus ride home.
thats like forever.
its called Punky's Dilemma, and yes, its Simon and Garfunkel. and yes, i do like Simon and Garfunkle. Art Garfunkle is one of historic crushes.... along with james dean and frank sinatra.
i totally recomend this song.... see if they have it on itunes, if not, i'll burn you a copy. its awesome. here are the lyrics, for you viewing pleasure:
"Wish I was a Kellogg's Cornflake
Floatin' in my bowl takin' movies,
Relaxin' awhile, livin' in style,
Talkin' to a raisin who 'casion'ly plays L.A.,
Casually glancing at his toupee.

Wish I was an English muffin
'Bout to make the most out of a toaster.

I'd ease myself down,
Comin' up brown.

I prefer boysenberry
More than any ordinary jam.
I'm a "Citizens for Boysenberry Jam" fan.

Ah, South California.

If I become a first lieutenant
Would you put my photo on your piano?
To Maryjane--
Best wishes, Martin.
(Old Roger draft-dodger
Leavin' by the basement door),
Everybody knows what he's
Tippy-toeing down there for"

ciao kiddies!
more from the martian at a later date....
and remember,
(insert humorus phrase here).

forest rangers, sunsets, and completely disorienting

today was ok.
school was school.
tomorrow is Community Service Day.
props to allie for getting us shirts, but definite dissapointment on the cool-ness level of them.
i can't believe we have to wear our skirts too! we're going to look like Super-Forest-Rangers in our khaki skirts and green shirts.
the diplomatic handbook is not just getting on my nerves, it is jumping up and down full force.
also....
i'm getting dissapointment with club volleyball. no, not in general, just my club. or more just my coach.
yes, jason is an ok coach. but i really love volleyball (dont ask me why) and i want to improve at a much faster rate than i actually am. i think i need a coach that takes the need to improve more seriously. jason just keeps beating us to death with the just basic skills. i want to get much better at my own posistion and learn how to play the other posistions as well. maybe i just need a coach who takes "us" as a team more seriously, because jason doesn't think we can handle it.

well, thats my rant for today.

on a much more mellow note....
i'm watching the sun set from my bed.
espescially nice on a wednesday afternoon
when i should be doing my dh.

with all the year almost over, and all this "course planning" we're doing i find myself wishing to be 5 again and stay that way. eternal youth, peter pan effect. i was ready to make a new club "the Lost Boys and Girls Club of America". but theres a hazy excitment of being "grown up" looming, far off enough to makes us dizzy and crazy by trying to find the way.
and i for one, and completely disoriented.

mafia princesses

my dad's home early from Atlanta.
i just spent the last 2 hours dropping a huge bomb on him.
i just told him that i hate the sport of basketball and that because of my volleyball schedule would not try out for varsity next year. or any year for that matter.
he's very upset.
its the equivalent of telling him i'm in love with al capone and after i converted to catholism would be running away with him to be a mafia princess.

its only the first day back to school and i'm already stressed out.
actually, stressed out isnt the right word for it. maybe i'm just longing for summer to come, or sick of school work already.
i'm surprised i'm not freaking about the diplomatic handbook more than i am. i'm being really calm about it, and am working really "diligently", wich is insane behavior for me.
besides the normal nervous-ness about returning to school i'm a wreck.
my head isnt wrapping around anything it should. my brain is quiet, and calm, unlike my normal buzzing self.
and with my head napping, by body's been anything but calm. my hands were actually shaking after lunch today and i can't stop my feet from insescently tapping on the floor. since friday i've had "fevers" on and off, where i'll get dizzy and burn up for 20 minutes and then get really cold before it goes away.
AND BESIDES all that,
comming back to schools been even more akward then usual. i swear there must be somehthing socially wrong with me. during breaks and vacations i always make plans with people, saying we'd definetly get together over the break. when break comes around, i spend it catching up on sleep, fooling around on the computer, and people watching on 3rd street. if i get together with anyone, its almost certainly sara. everyone else just requires planning, and i'm too busy to plan anything, or communte the hancock park to just hang out.
i guess i'm trying to say that
i'm confused and completely drained.

disneyland, volleyball, and murder, She wrote.

but i wont go into that.

Angela Landsbury rocks.

April Fools Day

i didnt pull any pranks today :(
instead i made minestrone soup and perogis with my little sisters,
and slept for more hours than i care to count due to a fever
AND THEN i somehow found energy enough to babysit the kids up the street.
i had exactly 2 1/2 hours of energy, wich was enough time to
make easy mac, color with megan, bathe megan, paint megan's finger nails with glitter polish, play barbies with megan, and put megan to sleep (consisting of reading her The Emperors New clothes 3 times). then brian came home from baseball practice. all i had to do then was help him pack for a boy scout camping trip tomorrow, so i sat in a bean bag and read him his list while he got everything together. i would have fallen asleep, if he hadnt been blasting the soundtrack to the yo-gi-o movie from his batman cd player.
he finally went to bed at ten and which left me with and hour and a half of fourcing myself awake so i didnt "fall asleep on the job".
so, i called sara, read Allure twice, played mindless Snood on my cell phone, drank 4 diet cokes, and left myself a message on my answering machine about being cranky.

now, i am at home, and i'm buzzzed from the caffeine, drousy from the fever, exhausted from playing barbies, and acheing because i trip over a bush walking home in the dark.
