My sister messed up her hand, so now she needs help with everything. She can't button her jeans, she can't mow the lawn, and she can't even wash her own hair. The other day she wanted me to help wash her hair. Thankfully, my step-mom agreed to do it. She ended up slamming my sister's head on the side of the bathtub a few times. She's just lucky it wasn't ME washing her hair. hehe!

Jason Alexander is a really good singer! He's the guy that plays George in Seinfeld. He was singing for some telethon or something, and he has a great voice! I wouldn't be suprised if someday he became a famous singer. He has a country-like voice, though. Just thought you'd like to know.

I was listening to some song the other day, and I absolutely hated it. And yet I kept listening to it. After a while, I couldn't stop listening to it! It's not my favorite song, but it's really cool. And then there's that song that used to be my favorite that I can't stand now. What's with that???

There's a little light on my computer that won't stop blinking. I don't know what it is, and it's really starting to annoy me.

My family got a cat last week. I don't usually like cats, but this one is really sweet. She's sitting on my lap right now. Unfortunately, she doesn't like my dog that much. Yes, we got a cat after we already had a dog. And a smart person would have gotten a kitten, but no, we got a 5 year old cat. My 8 year old dog didn't like the idea at first. Another thing. Both my dog and cat are females. (Well, WERE females, anyway.) All the experts tell you to get opposite-sex animals to reduce jealousy. But yet again, we were stupid and got a female. Why, you may ask? Because we're idiots. They get along okay now. We just have to keep a water spritzer thingy nearby so if the dog tries to eat the cat, we spritz her in the face. She doesn't like that too much.

I got a watch before school started. It was only $10. I should have known it wouldn't have been the greatest watch. But I had gotten watches there before, so I decided to get it. The day after I got it, it stopped working. I was in school on the first day, wondering why the period seemed to be going by so slowly. Stupid watch.

I hate the type of people that will be your friend when you're alone, but as soon as anyone else is around, they ignore you. Like you're not good enough to be thier friend, or they just don't want anyone else to know that they're your friend. I say I hate these people, yet I am "friends" with a few of them. I had a crush on one, no less! I don't like him anymore, but I'm still his "friend." I don't know why. I have problems. Someone slap me.

Why is it that the one person in the whole world that you want, is the one person you can't have?

I have this song that I listen to on my computer. It's really cool, but I don't want to buy the CD, because it's so expensive. So I have to listen to it on my computer. I want to blast it through my whole house, but the bass screws up the speakers. I have to listen to it really softly. Maybe I'll buy the CD after all...

I was talking to my mom in the car the other day, and I was telling her how 2 of my friends have opposite names. (I won't put them on the internet, because I don't want them to get mad.) It's like Bob Daniel and Daniel Bob. I know those are retarded examples, but I don't feel like thinking of better ones. So, I always get confuzed when I talk to them. I have to think before I say thier names, because I don't want to say the wrong one. At least they're guys, so I can just say I was calling him by his last name if I say the wrong one... oops! :) Wow, I got off topic. So, anyway, I was talking to my mom about them, and she was saying something about someone named Paul Blair. He played baseball. So he was like, "Paul Blair, the Ball Player." Say it, it's funny.

I have this chap stick stuff called "Natural Ice" or something like that. But on the tube thing, it says, "Natural Ice Natural Ice." Did they think that I couldn't read the first one, so they'd better put it on again just in case? Oh, well.

I have a weird name. I'm not going to put it on the internet, because some wacko person might kill me! (Or so my parents say.... errrr...) Anyway, it's an uncommon name, but it's not that hard to pronounce. Yet I have friends that have known me for 3 years and still say it wrong. I've given up on correcting people, except when I first meet them. I figure, if they can't get it on their 5th try, it's useless. It's funny, because I'll be sitting in class, and my teacher will be taking attendance, and say my name wrong, for the 50th consecutive time. I'll ignore it, but someone else in the class will correct him. It's like it bugs them more than it bugs me. Hey, at least no one else I know has my name! :)

My dad got a guitar. He won it from a radio station. It took about 9 months to get here, but it finally came. I only know about 10 chords, and I just play them over and over and over again. I need to get lessons.

I hate the kind of people who say their ugly or their bad at something when they KNOW that they're not! It's like they're waiting for you to say, "NO! You're beautiful! I wish I was as pretty as you!" And even if you do say that, they'll continue to argue. Why won't they just take a complement? Like, I don't think I'm a great sax player. I love playing the sax, I'm just not as good as I'd like to be. I'm not aweful, though. I never say I'm bad. I'm just not great. But when someone says, "You're the best sax player in the world!" I'll laugh and thank them. I know I'm not the best sax player in the world, but why insult the other person by not accepting the complement? 2 of my sisters are like that sometimes. It's gotten to the point when if they say something like, "I'm fat," I'll pretend I didn't hear them. It's funny, because I've noticed that if you ignore them, they continue to say it. "I'm fat." silence... "I wish I was skinny." silence.... "I need to lose weight." When they get annoyed because you're not groveling at their feet worshiping them, they'll actually ask, "Do you think I'm fat?" And I'll say, "no." I won't get into it. It's not worth it. Because even if I go all out complementing them, they'll still say they're fat. Next time, I may just say, "Yes, you're fat, please leave now." Maybe that will satisfy them.

Why am I getting email from people trying to sell me Viagra?!?!

I have a problem memorizing phone numbers and birthdays. I always feel bad because I only have about 4 of my friends' phone numbers memorized, and maybe 3 birthdays. Most of them at least know my number by heart, and I'm still going to the phone book to find theirs. And for some reason, I'm too lazy to write them down somewhere. Ugh! What am I going to do with myself??

I'm a bad dancer. I'm not being modest. I'm bad. But I love it. I go around my house blaring music and dancing to it. I think I scare my pets. I used to take lessons, but I don't think they did much. I got stuck in the dance, yoga and aerobics class for gym, though, so maybe I'll get better.

My house is like Noah's Arc. We've had (not all at once) a dog, a cat, 2 turtles, 2 "tree" frogs, 4 water frogs, 5 anoles (lizzards), a toad, 2 salamanders, tons of fish, a hamster, 3 crabs, a shark (small one), and we almost got a bird. We never got the bird, so it doesn't really count. I think that if we did get the bird, we wouldn't have gotten the cat, though. I've probably left a few animals out, but you get the idea. Then again, I have a friend who had 30 gerbils at a time. I don't know how he handled it! It makes my arc seem a little empty, doesn't it?

I want to learn how to play the trumpet. My brother is starting the trumpet. Maybe I'll just steal his and teach myself.

There's this singing group that make all the instrument sounds and stuff themselves. They don't use any instruments. It's pretty cool. They're called Five O'Clock Shadow. My school's head of the music department invited them to our school. She said they'll be big someday. Maybe. We'll see.

Can animals catch colds from people?

I took a test in chemistry today. We had to memorize all the symbols of the elements. I remembered them all except sodium. How could I forget sodium? We use it like every day! Oh, well. I still passed.

I want to try out for my school's musical this spring, but we need our own audition music. I don't have any.

I'm not what many people would consider "popular". I have a lot of friends, but I'm not "cool" or "trendy". I'm not the kind of girl that lots of guys are lining up to go out with. I'm kind of boring. My life is very monotonous. Anyone wanna switch lives? Just kidding... actually, I like my monotonous life. (most of the time!)

My cat was trying to turn around on my lap and almost fell off. What a stupid cat.

I used to get a lot of email. I would check one day, and have about 20. I'd read them all, and then the next day, I'll have 20 more. And they wouldn't be ads or anything, either. They'd be actual emails. But now I'm lucky if I get anything. I got 3 emails today. They were all trying to sell me something. Actually, one was trying to get me to go into some porno page or something... yeah, right. I wish people would just leave me alone when they're trying to sell me stuff online. And they're all like, "If you want to stop getting these messages, call this 800 number..." When do I have time to be put on hold to tell some illiterate idiot that I don't want to get their crap mail anymore??? Oh, well. So, to end this thought, EMAIL ME! superkoopa@hotmail.com.

I just re-read my page. I say "Oh, well" a lot. Oh, well.

I've got a lot of people that want me to join different activities. So far this year, I've been asked to join:
kickboxing
crew
marching band
ski club
basketball
german club
jazz band
volleyball
pit orchestra
swim team
our school musical
key club
There are a few others, I just can't think of them. How am I supposed to join all these clubs??? I don't have enough time (or energy) but I do want to do SOMETHING. I hardly did anything last year except for Jazz and Pit Orchestra. But I want to do something that will help me physically. But I'm the least physical person you will ever meet. What to do, what to do?

My room is really small. Even if I have only a few things on my floor, it looks messy. So my room almost ALWAYS looks messy. If I have anything on my desk, it looks cluttered. If anything's on my turtle tank, it looks cluttered. If any books are out of place on my bookshelf, it looks messy. Even if I lay my clothes out for the next day, I have to put them on my chair, and it looks messy. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I need a bigger room. Either that, or I need less stuff. I'll go for the bigger room.

Okay, has anyone heard of Dave Barry? He's this newspaper columnist who writes really funny stuff. The thing that makes it so funny is that everything he says is so true! But he's so sarcastic, you just have to laugh out loud... well, at least I did. Read some of his stuff: Dave Barry. Or don't... I don't really care. Whatever floats your boat! (Whatever tickles your pickle... hehe!!)

My german club is going out of state to go to some museum and eat at a German restraunt. For $20, we can get Bread and Butter, Cheese and Crackers, Soup, Salad, our Main Course, AND a dessert! Drinks are extra, but still, that's a pretty good price! And this is a semi-fancy place. Usually, it'd be about $20 just for a soup and salad! Pretty nifty, huh?

I am in 10th grade this year. Yet by the time October rolled around, I was already asked to 2 different Junior Proms. I'm not telling you this to brag or anything, I just think it's kind of interesting. I would understand if I was a junior, but I'm not! I was asked by my boyfriend and a friend from a different school. It would be cool if I could go to both, but I think my bf might get a little jealous. But besides, for all I know, they'll both hate me by the time the proms roll around. I'm not really going to worry about it now. Oh, my boyfriend is on the swim team for our school, and my friend that asked me to his Jr. Prom is on the swim team for his school... this should be slightly interesting, considering they both want to do bodily harm to eachother... hehe! I've gotta go to the meets!!! *lol*

That song Mambo Number 5 is stuck in my head. Actually, that's pretty good considering the song I had stuck in my head before... my friend was upset so she was singing a song that goes like this (I'll &*%# out the "bad" words... including the sick ones, even if they're not technically swear words... I wanna keep this page family friendly.... ha....): "&*$#, &*$#, &*$# a duck, &*#$ a kangaroo, #$*@& an orangutang, an #$*&@ at the zoo!" You can have fun trying to figure that one out. It's sung to the tune of "Row Row Row Your Boat" if that'll help ya.

I have a huge Global Studies project due the day after tomorrow and I only have 1/2 of it done... yet I'm updating my page rather than doing my project. No wonder I'm not doing well in Global!

Why does no one take my polls? According to my web page counter thing, lots of people have visited my page, yet about 7 have actually taken my polls... I'll admit, if I went to a page, I wouldn't wanna take a bunch of boring polls. That's why I need suggestions! I don't care how stupid they are, I NEED IDEAS FOR NEW AND INTERESTING POLLS!!!! Danke, danke.

I can play TAPS on my brother's trumpet!!!

Our school has a newspaper called the BISON. Lots of people think it's dorky and just throw it out after they get out of homeroom, but it actually has a good article every now and then. This month's had an article about violence prevention getting out of hand, one about the retarded term paper we have to write for gym, and one about how teen magazines are brainwashing this generation's girls. They were pretty interesting. I'd write more about them, but I'm too lazy.

I just saw the new James Bond movie yesterday with my boyfriend (yay!) and his brother. It was pretty good. The plot was kinda weak, and it had the same corney jokes, but it was still good. You know what I've noticed? In almost every TV show, every movie, etc., everyone is perfect. Perfect hair, perfect body, perfect face... and if EVERYONE isn't this perfect, it's at least all the females. Occasionally you get an ugly guy, but NEVER a girl. You can go anywhere in the world (excluding Hollywood, because that depleats the whole purpose) and take a handful of people. 100% of them will never be perfect like that. It's unrealistic! That's why people have such low self-esteem nowadays. ::sigh:: I'm done.

What's with that little yellow person icon for AIM?

For Thanksgiving, my whole family is coming to my house. We're not a HUGE family, about 17 or so of us. I invited my boyfriend (it was actually my parents' idea) because he said he wasn't doing anything. I'm getting the impression that he doesn't want to go. I keep telling him that if he doesn't want to go, he can just tell me. It won't hurt my feelings or anything because he's never been to my house before he would feel weird to be there with my whole family. Yet he keeps coming up with excuses. Hehe. It's actually kindof amusing. (And yes, I am aware that "kindof" is not a word.)

My friend called me yesterday to ask me something, and told me to call her back when I found out. I didn't find out until late last night, so I didn't want to call. This morning I went to tag a Christmas tree, so I couldn't call her then. We ended up stopping off to get skis and stuff on the way. So I didn't get home until too late to tell her what she wanted to know anyway. Now I feel bad.

I hate coffee. Yet I like coffee ice cream.

I think I'm going to kill someone. Not only is it "that time of month" as all those unsympathetic males would say, but my dog is pissing the heck out of me, I have wicked heartburn, I'm freezing, I'm tired, I've got tons of homework that I don't feel like doing, my mom was yelling at me, I can't make any plans for this weekend because of my stupid parents' divorce, and lots of other things that I'm too lazy to write here. Just thought you'd like to know. Actually, not really. I just felt like writing it to make me feel better. And you know what? Because I wrote "I think I'm going to kill someone," if anyone from my school (not one of my friends) ever came to this page, I could probably be suspended or something. That's how stupid they are.

For Christmas, I just want money. That's it. Nothing else. (Of course, if I get anything else, I'll probably love it.) But I'm not asking for anything besides money. As of now, I have $40 to spend on Christmas presents, and I have 4 siblings and 4 parents. Plus all of my friends. That gives me less than $5 each. How am I supposed to do that? So if you're my friend and I don't get you a present this year, I'm sorry. I'll save up and get you 2 next year, k?

I wrote a poem. It's depressing. It's about love and rejection and all that junk. It's not about real life, I just wrote it because I had a sudden inspiration. It was about me "being" the night and stuff, really messed up. But then again, I'm messed up, so it would make sense that I'd write messed up poetry. If you can even call it poetry.

My parents are watching a movie on the other side of the room. It's some western. There's been nonstop shooting for the past 8 minutes. Yes, I've been counting. No dialogue, just shooting. Oh, now it's just quiet......... No sound whatsoever. And now it's some guy singing. What a weird movie.

I want to dine with a turkey.

What would the world with me?

My step-dad says I'm an "encyclopedia of excuses."

I want to have a kid and name it Guar Gum. Hypothetically speaking, if I ever married my current boyfriend, my kid's name would be Guar Gum Maguire. That actually doesn't sound that bad, does it?

GO HOME!
