Don't Forget Time Burbles Arrangedly!

        Hi! This is just a really quick post about... well, random crap in short, maybe unconnected thoughts!
        I really love this video.  I wish I had iTunes so I could have contributed to Forever Day for Alex Day! (and you know, everyone else in this awesome video.)



        Nerdfighteria always seems to make me happy in some way. :-) I love that I don't even remember how I found it, but the very first time I did, I just ignored it and forgot about it, but now I just get so much joy from being a part of this awesome community!
        Also, found out John Green's book, The Fault In Our Stars, was released early on accident by one supplier. :-( Oh well. Hopefully it will all still end up well, and I think I'll still be only getting mine in January! Wooooo!
        Um... there was a fire in my physics class today, since the teacher was doing a demonstration that involved  some weird propane musical instrument... that was hilarious.  Don't worry! It was completely contained the whole time.
         Literary magazine is so stressful! I feel sometimes like I don't have the right or the ability to judge other people's writing and artwork, but it's part of the job. It's nice, though, since it forces me out of my comfort zone (which = saying good things about things, never bad).
        In drawing 2 I'm going to enter a mixed media piece I'm finishing up in the school art show, Un-Named (or somesuch like that). Excited, nervous, and freaked out by the dolls in my piece.
        I have the most amazing boyfriend ever.  :-)
        Sometimes kids need to learn how to act more adult-like... but often, adults also need to remember what it is to be kids again.
        Jeremiah doesn't like the same sorts of music I do, except random movie scores. Pity he may not even like Forever Yours!
        Reading An Abundance of Katherines by John Green.  I really like it so far!  Makes me think of "the F word" as "fug".
        In a sort of give-up mood in photography because even my 5x7s are super grainy. :-P Darn short days and indoor lighting.  And my potential failures at developing and printing!
        Um. Um. Um. Squirrel.  Ha ha. Pip.
        There are so many people I know who really need help, even if just support.  I try my best to give it, but sometimes it's just hard... so just know, everyone, I love you peoplessss.
       Doing my last-minute AP U.S. History homework!  However much homework stresses me out, when we're not talking about military strategy by different commanders (boooooring), I really like learning this stuff. Also, PBS is awesome.
        (Done with one assignment!)
        I have adorable kitty cats, whom I love.  Oreo is sleeping cutely on the couch.  Tina is sleeping cutely on a chair.  (Awwwhh)
        Speaking of, I have a wonderful family I love!
        And wonderful friends that I love too!
        Forgot what the War of 1812 was there for a bit... haha... I'm in trouble when the AP test comes around...
        Oh! I went to girl scouts yesterday, and it was fun. We were about an hour late, though, because we ran across four car wrecks, one of which looked really serious, and another one with firetrucks.  Drive carefully, people! It's cold, it's dark, and it's potentially precipitating! We talked about our Sisterhood Journey that we're doing, and I think it will be fun. We're going to have (we think) a group of Juniors (about 4th grade to 6th, ish?) and we'll have a sleepover and watch one/two movie(s) and compare and contrast the strong female characters and the weak female characters. If we had time, we'd do Harry Potter (go Professor McGonnagal!) vs. Twilight (we all know those are some pretty weak female characters there...), and apply what we learn to our relationships with ourselves and others. I'm pretty excited. :-) Also, we decorated sugar cookies and talked about college! No one is decided on anything about college in my troop. o.O Including me, of course.
        Anyway, in the spirit of finishing this essay so I can, um, finish it! Farewell!
        Not so mad at JSD for making us have a long time before Christmas ("Winter"... but we all know that's just so it's politically correct) break.  But I am so mad at all of the adults telling us we need to "grow up" and stop complaining. Hello? We're still in high school! We're not supposed to grow up quite yet.  Our time will come.
        Happy Holidays, if you celebrate any! And I hope you're all fantastic, and not forgetting to be awesome.
