Okay, some of my friends who have looked at my moms blog say we talk almost exactly alike. Except the cursing on my part. I guess I’m more like her than I thought. I mean, like, I’m on the phone with Meatball, and at first he thinks I’m her. I also look almost exactly like her whan she was my age. I also have noticed I get most of my music from her (Alanis Morrisette, Merideth Brooks, KMFDM, Dido, Goo Goo Dolls, etc.). AND we read the same kind of books. I get books from her and vise versa (she has at least… 4 or 5 books from me she needs to read. Note to Mom: At least read Northern Lights so I can re-read it!!).

Now, I know I havn’t quite updated in awhile. It’s not even because I’m too busy. I’m just too lazy to type something >.>. Well, to start off, many of you know we are living in Cooperate Housing (was that in my last post?) in Pittsburgh, and yadda yadda ya. We are about 4 blocks away from a small shopping complex thing (like, stores on either side of the road. Clothing shops, coffee shops, Rite Aid, and so on) where I have now taken to walking up and down when I feel restless (whaddya know? I can actually go ALONE) and whenever we need snackish stuff. The coffee shop is nice to just get a Mocha and sit and read for an hour or so (which I did earlier today).
Did I mention that the people here are actually NICE? They wont yell at you for accidentally bumping into them, or give you a dirty look when you’re walking down the street with a pentacle visably hanging around your neck. So, like my mother, I am totally in love with this city. Despite some of the idiots who don’t know how to drive, it’s a wonderful place to live. Especially when you’re like me when you’ve grown up near or in a city all your life.

I am by far the worst blogger, aye? Lol, just kidding.

To catch up a bit I am right now in WV where we came to see the movers pack and move my stuff (most of you know this from LadyMeatball’s blog) and we’re kinda moved into PA.

I’m sure mom has more info on it, and I cant talk too much as it is early in the morning (Yum, 4 hours of sleep). One thing is I have chipped a tooth. I was eating a Life Saver and boom, there it is. So we now have a full pharmacy of painkillers for until we go to a dentist the get a crown or it pulled, or w/e.

Also, I have been writing more poems. They’re not as depressing as before (I’m out of that stage thank GOD) and this is one I wrote just tonight…

MY MIRROR

I look in the mirror
to see someone I don’t know
someone changed
whom I love so
she’s so confident in herself
she loves who she is
but what is it to her?
if she cant tell who it is
she knows she looks good
and that she is loved
and that she is special
never to be shoved
she knows that she is loyal
and will fight for her friends
that she is popular
though she doesnt set trends
she has talents
in abundance, she knows
although most times
not many of them show
shes confident in her sexuality
like some people are not
she used to be shy
and most times distraught
this girl in the mirror
is this who I am?
and if it is
is this not a scam?

Okay, not depressing, but weird, yes? These things have a habit of writing themselves (at least in my case) and I think I know what this is saying.. I’ve changed a LOT this past year. I look back and think to myself “what happened?”. I dont know what it is, but I noticed it last night. I looked in the mirror (see the connection? ) and kinda had a double take. I think the poem says how envious she (I) is (am) of the girl she sees, but doesn’t think it could possibly be her. I was talkin the Hel about it (remember her from Vent stuff?) and we settled on this explaination. Its a time for us where we discover who we really are and who we’re not. Where everything is confusing, and not so black and white anymore. A confusing time, but nessesary all the same. Its not supposed to be selfishness as some would think, its discovery. I’m not boasting a high self-esteem, believe me. I’m not like that.

*sigh* Now I’m just babbling. Hope you all have a nice week or so ^_^

For two people who I know are coming here for laughs. *ahem*

GET A LIFE. Stop coming on here to tick me off, got it? you want to say something, say it on vent, but leave this and my personal life out of it. And you two know who you are: Fatbo and Coldchill. Be happy I don’t get Domovoi to block you.

Now, for those who read this in interest, I would like to apologize for this outburst, but it needed to be said, and they need to learn that insulting people will get them into trouble later in life.

On a better note. We finished WESTEST this week. WESTEST is one of those tests that are for ’seeing what level you’re on’ and they were fairly easy. What made them hard was sitting in the SAME classroom for THREE HOURS A DAY. Ouch with the cramps and the head. With that finished, we have about a week left of school *YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY* And this summer (according to my parents) we will be moving to Pittsburgh (this note is educational: Yes, Pittsburgh does have an ‘h’ at the end. Remember that ;)). Not many details, just thought I’d share that. Well, See ya!

(Fatbo and Coldchill: MOVE ON)

I again would like to apologize about my not so much posting :p
Aside from that, we have had a lot going on.

One) We got four finches (itty bitty birdies). Two soceity (boy and girl) and two zebra (also boy and girl). We belive that right now, they are laying eggs, so there are more to come.

Two) About a week ago, we got a two month old American Bulldog who is SO ADORABLE!!! Hes brown except his nose (well, whatever that part is called from his eyes to his nose) is black, and a small line of black down his back, and has white paws.

Three) Meatball is getting a new job. Right now, we think that the one for Microsoft (yes, Microsoft) who of which has been chasing him for about three years.

And I think that is about it… Except in Band Festival, we got rated one below Superior (theÂ? highest rating) so that was fun. Well, au revoir!

Ok, I havn’t said anything in… God, I don’t know, and I’m too lazy to find out, because then I’ll feel even MORE bad… Okay, gramatically incorrect, but whatever. I am on spring break, so I will be on this computer for the better part of a week (maybe not straight, but close enough). I never do this, but I will now. If you have MSN messenger, go here . it is a site that has a bunch of bots, add-ons, and patches and it ROCKS. If you have any questions about it, then you can use the FAQ page on there, or ask me on MSN messenger with this S/N:

So have fun with that Um, what else… Oh, yea just got over the flu, so that was fun ,and next week we have a talent show. These two are related because I am singing, and with the build-up of mucus in my throat, I sound like crap, so please, wish me luck >.< . Also nex week, I am going to New York City with a bunch of my classmates. I am going to bring about... Ten to twelve disposable cameras So that will be fun. Thats all my brain wants to spit out right now, so Happy Late Easter and all that good stuff

Hilo again! (ok, I warn you, I’m HYPER :D) So, I would like to update cuz I havnt said much for awhile *sweat*. I have the new laptop (YAY) and it is an HP Pavilion zv6000 (whatever that means) and its really cool and stuff. I would tell you the gigs and hertz but I have no clue what that all is, and no clue what it means, so I won’t. I had my first Track Meet today, which I couldn’t run in. I missed too many days (its not my fault!! I didn’t have the physical in and I didnt even have a doctor!!)so I went for the whole “school spirit” thing. Though my “school spirit” ran a little low when it started to rain and it was FREEZING out there. One of my friends’ moms took me to the meet from school and took me back home (turns out that they were good friends to the people who lived here before). We left kinda early because it would’ve lasted until 10 or 11:00, and I am NOT going to stay out in the freezing rain for that long, sorry. Lets see, what else…Oh! My pains aren’t as consistent as we thought, and I havn’t been getting them for awhile (Heh, I think I just jinxed myself…*facepalm*) so thats good news. I did good at the All-County concert! I got a plaque and everything (when my mom gets the new scaner hooked up, I’ll put a picture of it on here). And the highschool we went to was H-U-G-E. A couple friends and I were going to the bathroom, and we got lost >.< This was all the day when we had the all-day rehersal before the night of the concert (two seperate days. Confusing, yes, but my head is a little in the clouds @.@). And I think that may finally be it. G’night all!!

This is a song I printed from online. As I said before, I play the flute, and I decided to record this. It’s Greensleeves, and apparantly they don’t know who wrote it. They THINK it was King Henry VIII, so we have no clue

So here it is, me playing it. Enjoy!!

Greensleeves

Why do I get chosen for these pains? I got them again last night about one in the morning. Why can’t they just poof away? Even after the pains were gone, I cried. I just want them gone, no matter what the cost. It’s a good thing my mommy was willing to stay in the living room with me and comfort me. I’m staying home today so I can sleep, seeing as I got about five, four and a half hours of sleep. I hate pain. Its bad enough when I get sore from track, and then these stack up on it. Our only dot we can maybe connect is that last night, Wednesday, I had the pains. The time before it was another Wednesday. One week apart, so this may be a little piece. Well, We’ll see next week, won’t we?

Ok, I havn’t posted in awhile so here are some updates: I went to the doctor to a) get a physical and b) try to figure out what this chest pain is. When I got home on wednesday, we were going to go directly to the doctors office for a physical so I could run track. Anyway, when I got home, my chest started to hurt. I went into the kitchen to get water, but it got so bad, I ended up sitting on the floor crying. MonkeyBoy went and got my mom, and she helped me out to our truck. I couldn’t buckle my seatbelt it hurt so much. It was a fairly short drive, but it felt like hours to me. We got the the doctors and I stated to feel a bit better, but it wasnt completley gone. After signing papers, my mom and I went into the waiting room where I started to hurt again. The doctor came out and called my name, and we went in. The pain went away, to my great relief. So we got through the physical, and the doctor said that they’ll take blood to see if there was any ulcer bacteria (nope) and that they’ll take chest x-rays (nothin). So when my mom gets this unicare thingy, we’ll be going to some specialist in Morgantown. Doesn’t that sound fun? I guess I can’t say much considering I chose that. I would go through anything to get rid of this pain bacause it hurts (heh, ever heard that? pain hurts…D’oh!).

Now, to the point of the title, I am addicted to an online game called Flash Flash Revolution. Its essentially Dance Dance Revolution except you use the arrow pad. I got to play multiplayer, which is difficult due to vertical split-screen, but fun cuz I can kick all their butts :D. Since I have nothing else to do, my butt hurts and my legs hurt, I am now going to burn my eyes out with FFR
