Suger Highs and Sugar LOWS of Life

So we won on winner's court in volleyball! I actually hit the volleyball over the net! So proud. =P

History was pretty boring. I like, failed the pop quiz on Mt. Vesuvius... And I said that Japan was the Philippines on the World Map Test. Total blond moment; I looked up, saw islands, and was like, "Oh, Philippines..." XD It was so bad... I got a 97% on my Five-Circle Culture Model that I pretty much did by myself... *cough* Robyn *cough* Haha, I'm never going to let that go. =P

English was pretty boring too. We wrote a response to Hemingway's famous six word story (For sale: baby shoes, never worn), and came up with our own six word thing for this name shield we're doing. Robyn's was by far the best: "Life is short -- so am I." The awesomest six word story ever made. XD

I got piggyback rides during lunch again! W00t!!!

Bio was sorta boring. We learned more about DNA, then made this really stupid DNA model thing, and answered questions.

*****

Chinese school was like, the best thing EVER. Stanley, Jimmy, Brian, Michael, and I were all pelting paper wads at each other, except I kept missing. XD Then Stanley made this weird sperm model thing that he threw at me, and I pelted back at him, so the teacher confiscated it, and was like, "This is Stanley *draws a smiley face on it*" and we all start laughing hysterically. And Michael was on like, a 300 g sugar high. Adding on to that would be two days worth of sleep deprivation. But yeah, it was hella awesome!

*****

On a more sobering note, this guy asked me out. Yeah, I know, right? Everything seems to be happening this year... So right now, I'm just really shocked and... yeah. I mean, I don't know what to say to him. I've only known him for a month-ish, and he's really nice, but I don't know... I mean, like I guess I could just see where it goes, but in the long run, I don't think I could make myself like someone... I just don't know. What am I supposed to say?

I Dare You... To Hug That Guy!

So PE today was actually okay; we won on winner's court! Yay! And I actually hit the volleyball. XD I can't serve on winner's court though, it's so much bigger and my serves suck on normal courts already, so... I ran a mile too! In 10 minutes though, but no one tries on 10 minute cardios. XD

History was pretty boring. We took tons of Cultural Literacy notes, then we watched this pretty interesting documentary on Mt. Vesuvius/Pompeii/Herculaneum. But we have this really retarded informative research paper due on some ancient civilization called the Nacirema. Beats me. Oh well.

We have a new student in English! Her name's Caitlin. Or Katelyn. Or whatever. XD But yeah, she's not very talkative, but that might just be because she's new. But, I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong but she seems sort of like a semi-sorta-popular girl. or a wannabe. I don't know, but that's the vibe. The fact that she was carrying a purse and holding all her textbooks/binders sorta contributed to that. I don't get why people do that... I mean, seriously? We're at school, not the mall. Oh well. She seems sort of nice though, which is nice.
Haha, it was hilarious today, because we had to do this weird thing, where it's like, "If my name were a(n) object, season, time, animal, etc. what it would be, and why." Then Tedmund said that if his name was a word, it'd be Asian. XDD I made up an awesome one for Robyn, I was like, "If your name were an object, it'd be a yardstick, because that's how tall you are." ROFLMAO. XD Yeah, then Drew wanted to do, "If my name was a Pokemon, it'd be..." But he can't draw Pokemon apparently. So I stole his idea. =P

Lunch was hella funny. We went to the Interact meeting, signed in, and just left. XD I hope we didn't cover anything important. Then Robyn was running up to everyone who had a candy box, asking for Kit-Kats, but everyone was out. =P
Then Robyn and I were like, "If you go hug so-and-so, I'll give you 2 dollars." And so on. XD It was just hilarious. Neither of us ended up hugging anyone though, which is just as well, because the guys would've been like, "...Wtf...?" But yeah.

We just took the test in bio, which was hella easy. But I might've missed a few. XD I asked Mr. Pence the stupidest question too, I was like, "Oh damn, that was retarded..." Then I folded ninja stars the rest of the period. XD And traded it for one of those claw things, because Omar was folding them behind me. =P

All in all, a pretty fun day. Excepting that crapload of homework I have due... Stupid English. And history. -.- Oh well.

I'm a PRINCESS!!!

Anyways, I haven't posted in FOREVER. So, I'm going to go BACKWARDS! From today, to Valentine's. Or sometime around then. I don't even really remember what I did. XD Oh well. Have fun reading through this long, weird post!

*****

Today was pretty fun. PE was just a ton of volleyball, where this dude got hella pissed at me because I suck at volleyball and I was on his team. But whatever. -.-
Math was... interesting. We just had this 3 page long test, which was really retarded, and full of word problems and stupid "SHOW YOUR WORK!!!" problems with like 15 steps each. Blech. I probably made some stupid mistake, like 2+3=6 or something. And failed the whole thing. XD Then we have like 50 problems of math homework, with all of these stupid negative fraction exponents... It's really easy, but it's so stupid, because we can't just do the math in our head and write the answer. Nooooo, we have to SHOW. OUR. WORK. Stupid...
During brunch, I was sitting on a pole outside the band room, and Robyn just spontaneously picked me up princess style. It was hilarious. XD
Ceramics was rather boring. My bust sucks, but I really like the star "china" set I'm making. I have a little dish, a bowl, and I'm starting on the plate. Then I just need a cup, and I'm good! I actually might make another little dish though... or a bigger version or something. Haha, I have my actual class project, then this little side project I'm making. =P
Then at lunch, I went to the GAKAB club meeting and was in the yearbook picture and stuff. Then Robyn carried me around our lunch area princess style, or bride style, or whatever you want to call it. XD I swear, she looks all short and little, but she's HELLA strong!!!
French was pretty awesome. We got Mardi Gras beads! Yay! ;) Then we ate tons of King Cake. Yummy. And we had this weird "Bluff-O-Mania" class competition on the notes we took on French history, and DAVID answered... and got it WRONG. =O It was like, the highlight of my day. XD Besides the princess thing.

OMG, and it was Ross' birthday Saturday, but the idiot didn't tell me, so I gave him cupcakes today instead. ;) It was funny, because he didn't want to take them, but his mom was like, "They pretty. Just take them." I was thinking, "YES! Now he has to take them because his mom told him to." XD It was hilarious.

*****

Yesterday was cool too. More volleyball, but no teams. Which was nice, because I didn't have people SHOUTING at me because it's basically the first time I've actually PLAYED volleyball. -.-
History was sorta boring. Just a ton of "Five-Circle Culture Model" presentations. Haha, it was kind of funny, because we're supposed to say how we planned our layout, and Robyn didn't really plan much (she helped cut and glue though), so I was like, "Yeah, Robyn, how'd we plan our layout?" XD
English was pretty boring. We have to write ANOTHER essay. Ugh. So freaking stupid. -.- I mean seriously, This is like, our third project in a row. Blech. I was up until, like, 2 am doing that stupid English project that we had. -.-
Bio was sort of scary. Mr. Pence was hella mad at the beginning, because he thought people didn't get the homework he e-mailed TWICE to us, but it was just 3 people. Thank God. Then we just reviewed for the test, which was hella boring, and he gave us jellyfish, which I didn't try. XD I don't like weird foods. Haha.

*****

Sunday, I went shopping with my sister and mom at like, Marshall's, and TJ Maxx, and stuff. Got a few new pairs of jeans. XD I wanted this pair of cute flats (I get sick of wearing sneakers/Converse sometimes, =P), but they didn't have my size, so... Oh well. Then we went to Ulta and got 3 samples of BareMinerals for Jess. It was hella funny, because I went in, and they were trying to give me a Medium-Beige (which is apparently my tone), but I asked for a Fairly Light (Jess' tone), and they were like, "This isn't for you, is it?" So apparently all that guard practice DID make me darker. XD

*****

Jess came back Saturday, and we made smoothies (YUM!) and Funfetti (from a box, lol) cupcakes and cookies! It was pretty fun. Plus we stayed up reading books and eating candy. Haha. AND. Unknown to me, it was Ross' birthday. -.- The 21st. I am forever keeping that in my calendar just so that he can't ever lie to me about it again. Roflmao.

*****

Mock Trial was on the 18th. Haha, Defense owned Campolindo! W00t! I did pretty well, I thought, given that I only got the witness statement and stuff like, the day before. XD But we basically went to McDonald's first, ate some food, then to the competition. Prosecution lost by a few points, which was sort of disappointing, but they won at today's trial! =D Then we had a mini-celebration at In-N-Out, which was kind of funny, because fast food restaurants aren't usually where you'd expect to see guys in tuxes and girls in work suits. XD

*****

We had the Elephant Seal trip on Tuesday, and it was pretty fun! We went to Safeway/McDonald's/Jamba Juice/etc. before, and Brenden, Iva, and I bought 4 bags of Sour Punch Straw Bites. =P At the actual place, the trail was hella muddy and had tons of standing water, and my shoes were SOAKED by the end. We saw a really nice rainbow though! Hm... that reminds me, I still need to upload photos. XD I'll do that this weekend. We saw TONS of elephants seals, a few trying to mate, and a dead female. =/ The pups are SOOOOOO cute though!!! <3>hella muddy and a few people slipped. Including me. XD It was really, really, fun though!

*****

Valentine's Day itself was pretty boring. I stayed home, ate candy and brownies, and watched Romantic Princess. <3>XD The day before was awesome though, I ran around passing out brownies with heart-shaped and pink/white/red sprinkles on the top. They were pretty yummy, if I do say so myself. XD I got tons of candy and stuff from my friends too! =D No actual Valentine gram things though, but I didn't really care, because, if you know me, I've had my share of crushers this year. The fact that it was all at on time didn't help any either.
And along those lines, Wayne (for those of you that don't know, he's this guy I met at the Chinese EP contest) says some guy is going to ask me out Friday, so now I'm sort of like, eh... I mean seriously, how come it's all this year? Why not last year? The next year? Oh well...

*****

But yeah. Anyways, that was a nice long post. XD I probably didn't cover near all of it, but whatever. I'll try t post more, but whatever with my two simultaneous English projects, and all those quizzes I have, plus piano (of which I have 28 pieces to memorize by June), I might not make it to Blogger so much. XD But yeah, that long post was pretty fun.

Pigs Going to the Butcher's?

Ugh. Not that immediate sense of doom, but I swear, Foss and Sloan homework is going to chop off like, 10 years of my life... Sloan homework wasn't THAT bad, just taking notes on like 7 pages of text. We have to write a freaking 3 PAGE PAPER on some stupid documentary for English though... Blech...

Anyways, we weighed ourselves in PE today. Either I gained 5 pounds in less than a month, or Mrs. Goddard's scale is different from Mrs. Block's. XD Oh well.
History was fun. We watched this interview with Sully, and Mr. Tisa was subbing for Mr. Sloan. Mr. Tisa's pretty awesome! I wish he taught one of my classes... Lol.
We just watched and reflected on a documentary in English. (Mrs. Foss was gone today too, with her husband... Hm... XD) So that was pretty boring. Then we have a 3 page essay due on Thursday. Ugh...
Lunch was funny. I played badminton with Shekhar and some other people whose names I don't know. XD I suck sooooo much. Oh wells.
We changed seats in biology today... Which kind of sucked, because I liked my old seat... Then we're learning all of this crap about genetics and Mendel's pea plans and crap, and it was SO boring I swear I was about to fall asleep for the first time at school...

Then I didn't have the Mock Trial competition because it was canceled. =( I was really looking forward to it too! Oh well, I get to go next Thursday! =D
I was poking Ross in the car because he wouldn't answer a question, but he like, flinches. A lot. So I stopped after a while. If it was like Kevin or someone, I would've kept going... But I said he squirmed, then he was like, "Don't use that word! It makes me think of little pigs going to the butcher's..." So I was like, "Oh..." Hm... It was sort of weird. But whatever.

New Post! Yay!

Anyways, not much has been going on. Um...My schedule got changed, so now I have A period PE and Ceramics II 4th period. Hm... Totally failed my math quiz. XD World Geo/Cultures is cool; Mr. Sloan makes all of these really stupid, and sometimes funny jokes, which half the class doesn't get, but...
There's not much to post about... I mean, there would be plenty if I could remember it... Haha. Oh well. Anyways, I was supposed to have a Mock Trial competition tomorrow, but the other team canceled, so I don't know if I should still go, since prosecution is going, but defense (which I'm on) isn't...

Oh well. I have to go sleep now, since my parents screamed at me for like 4 hours about not sleeping enough, not playing enough piano, and spending too much time on the computer. I mean seriously, Shut. Up. I got it the first 100 times, back in 6th grade. Stop repeating yourself. I'll post more when I have time, which is going to be like, never, since I now have this stupid bedtime, and when you add in the fact that I still have to play piano, plus the fact that I have homework, and lots of other miscellaneous stuff, I'm barely going to have an hour to myself anymore... -.- Of course, I'm still going to sneak on Facebook when I'm "doing homework," since my dad is the only one who even moderately pays attention to what I'm doing on the computer, and he doesn't get home until 7-8pm. So yeah. But I have to go now. -.- Stupid bedtime...

Love Dramas...

I love them. Why wouldn't I? Everything's so perfect, and there's always that wonderful couple that prevails over anything that happens. Their best friend dies? They cry and become closer because of it. They're separated by a cruel twist of fate? No worries, they'll find each other again. Sometimes I wish I was in a drama... Even though there might be problems way bigger than what I experience now, I could be fine with it and move on, because I know that at the end, there's a happily-ever-after waiting for me... But maybe I watch too many. Maybe these dramas have twisted my perception of guys. Because, at the end of it al, these dramas aren't real...
Sometimes it seems like I'll never find my "Prince Charming." All the guys around me are just people that I couldn't imagine dating... Close friends, total idiots, and such. Friends around me all have their little crushes, and that one guy that they're just so smitten with, but what about me? Am I just too afraid to like someone again, after the last person broke my heart and stamped it into the ground? Or is it just that right now isn't the right time? Will my "Prince Charming" never come?

I just wish that I had that one guy to hold me in his arms, to whisper in my ear, to ask me if I'm okay. I just want one guy to to care care of me, protect me, love me. One guy who I can lean on, confide in, love back. Is that too much to ask?
I guess that I have high expectations of guys, given that the boyfriends (my sister's) I've grown up with have all been completely loving, coming to visit us. I have one in mind, but I won't name him (people can probably guess though). He's come by with Jamba Juices and small presents just because. He'd come surprise her with a gift, sneaking into the house when she was gone (with my help), and hiding someplace. He'd have creative little ideas of asking her to dances, and would write little notes to her, slipping them through the cracks of her locker. He wrote a note for every day he was away from her (China) in the summer, and fold them into origami. I loved the effort he put into their relationship, and I thought, "My future boyfriend is going to be like that..." I naively thought that all guys were like that, loving, caring, doing everything they could. I didn't expect them to constantly present me with gifts, but I expected them to take care of me, hold my hand, be happy to see me. I thought that all guys would be perfect. But after my first "relationship" failed miserably, I realized I can't just randomly give my heart to any guy. Am I guarding it too closely now? Is my definition of the perfect guy too harsh? Is there even a guy in the world who would be perfect for me?

I watch my dramas and hug my knees and wish for my own little fairy tale. But will it ever really come? I see the girls in the dramas all find their one true love, the guy who'd take care of them, fight for them, be there for them, that one guy who is just meant for them. But will there be a guy who'd love me? Or will I just grow old alone, that crazy aunt with 14 cats? (Not that I have anything against cats.) I fall asleep every night thinking of the sweet guy in the dramas, who holds onto his love tight. I fall asleep every night hugging a pillow or a stuffed animal, hoping for my "Prince Charming" and crying because of the idea that he might never come. I fall asleep and dream of a faceless man who would take care of me and be my perfect guy. I fall asleep wishing for my own love drama. But I have to ask...

Is my "Prince Charming"' even out there?
