First Day
Well today had some upsand downs. In the morning a bunch of us gathered at the bus stop. When the bus finally came, it was so packed with freshies and i was like ahh where's my friends?! But then christini was like lizzy! and i went and sat near them. When we almost got to school, this kid barfed out the window. I was soooo disgusted. Then I remembered it was bry and my 8th today so the bus crew (adam) made this awful card lol. I got off the bus and walked around with bryan. Then we went to first hour: english. Mrs. Zacher seems nice but I'm getting yrbook first hour! I AM! Then after that was econ..i like that class..well the people..there's a lot of my friends :) Sunil was funny with his gay marriage joke. Then came health...snorefest...SO BORING! Some of the kids didn't know wat yoga was. They were like "do u see purple elephants?" And the teacher's like "it's not LSD!!" I just wrote Bryan a note and wrote down my routines for eaglettes. Ay caramba..then came lunch and basically there was no one there but then along came amy, kailiannie, and lauren becuz their teacher was dumb and dismissed them early. So I hung with them for awhile. Then came 7th hour, dance, and i just hung with kelsey, meredith, jen. I was really tired. The bus didn't come for like a half hour after school ended! GRRRR. We waited around for sooo long. Then it came and it was a fun ride, jokes, me and sam...lol...watnot. Then, i'm so proud, i convinced the bus driver to stop at our stop. Hopefully he'll come tmrw! Well i guess thats it...i really want my schedule change tho! (but i miss bry being there all the time :( )

i cant believe that asshole.
andrea just sent me a little conversation she and emy had a few days back i guess, and lets just say she had me join her in losing all respect in him. i at least used to think he was a good guy, but now i just think hes the biggest asshole ive ever met, like, seriouusly, im not shitting u, ive never heard anyone be so conceited and full of himself as i saw in that conversation. i cant believe him.

And you kissed me like you meant it...and I knew that you meant it...
Well, its been awhile since i've updated. The last week I've been in dance camp. That's been fun yet tiring. We've been practicing stand routines and marching a lot, and also this one dance that we've been learning. I enjoy being an Eaglette for the most part, cept the 8 hour days can be prettty long. I've also made some friends which is good :) I really like Michelle, Allison, and Christina..they're my buddies :) On Thursday, was orientation as u all know lol. But anyway, I walk out of the bleachers and there Bryan's waiting for me <3 So we went over to the IBO and on the way I was like "I wonder where my friends are?" And the next sec, i swear, christine comes running up to me! hehe...So we all walked to the IBO, then Emily and Katherine joined us in the IBO. It was funny: my "joke" on Allison that got ruined by the mean guy, and me fighting bryan against getting out of yrbook, and now I'm probly not gonna be in it anyway. We'll see. Also at orientation I saw Natalia, Sam, Sameen, Rach (hehe i didn't see her at first), and i guess a few others? The locker situation, people having too many lockers and stuff was funny...and also Mission Impossible (literally) Bry...hehe. Friday was the last day of camp and they made us stay outside for so long...every1 was dying from the heat! Christina, Courtney and I were playing the ABC game..decribing how awful, bad, cruddy...it was...ya know. But then we got to go inside...finally...After camp we got Rich and drove home...vroom...then I went to Jess's and Katherine got there soon after. We watched "How to Lose a guy in ten days" That movie is hilarious!! Blow! Blow! Then Amy came over and we played our fav. game- blurt! hehe katherine went around...soo many timesssss...Some of our wrong answers were funny! Then we went to Sunrise Cinemas and first went to Cici's pizza place..yummy. Then we waited around cuz there was time before we saw Legally Blonde, so we played the penny trick on some of the movie people and danced around..As for the movie, it was pretty retarded and unrealistic...:/ Oh well...I dunt regret seeing it...hehe..we didn't get murkled! Yea! So it was a fun night out with the gurls...Today I have an Eaglette's party- yay! Well guess that's it...bye bye...mwah!

new s/n. : savethebandaids

( dont ask me about the story behind it.. here it is : )

ahsley passion and i were talking, and she asked me why people who dont have cuts wear bandaids on their faces, and i told her it was cause nelly does, and she was like, well those kids are spreading disease because they use up all the bandaids and then the kids with infections dont get any cause they're all gone because of those stupid nelly fan killers, so we decided to be bandaid savers. lol
yeah it was probly only funny to me ashley and natalia.... but it works for me :)

thought this was a cute quote.. its old school. but applies. in every way shape and form.
somewhere b e t w e e n the procrastination.... and the homework..... and the incessant forwards..... and the friendships..... and the calls to each other complaining about crushes!!...... Somewhere b e t w e e n the phone calls to o l d f r i e n d s..... And the "I miss you's" & the "I love you's"....... And the "What are we doing tonight's?"..... And somewhere b e t w e e n all of the changing, growing... Somewhere b e t w e e n the classes........ And the skipping classes...... And the studying for tests....... And the pretending to study for tests....... And the downright NOT studying for tests... I forgot.......... I forgot what high school is all about.
I forgot what it meant to cry....... I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make you happy........... And that pretending to be smart doesn't make you smart............ I forgot that you can't just forget the past in fear of the future.......... I forgot that you can't control falling in love........... And that you can't make yourself fall in love........... I learned that I can love......... I learned that it's okay to mess up......... And it's okay to ask for help......... And it's okay to feel like crud.......... I learned it's okay to complain and whine to all your friends for a whole day........ I learned that sometimes the things you want most you just can't have.
I learned that the greatest thing about high school isn't the parties or the DRiNKiNG or the hook-ups... It's the friendships, which means taking chances........ I learned that sometimes the things we want to forget are the things which we most need to talk about.......... I learned that letters from friends are the most important thing. And that sending cards to your friends makes you feel better. But, basically, I just learned that my friends........ Both o l d and new......... Are the most important people to me in the world. And without them, I wouldn't be who I am today..... So this is a thank you to all of my friends. . For always being there and I love you.

the ataris are the shit.
these past few weeks
I've been confused
sometimes I wonder if
I'm better off alone.

you fall in love
then break your heart.
you fall in love again
its never ending.

I used to have this friend
who took his fiance
to see billy idol
a couple weeks before
their wedding day.
the chick got backstage
and left my friend outside.
next day he called
from a hotel
asking for a ride.

I guess I'm giving up on love [x3]
'cause it really kind of sucks

uninspired
and growing tired
why am I always
so attracted to drama?

so here I am
grown up at 23
will someone tell me
what it takes to be happy?

I play in my band
and write a lot of songs
about relationships
and how mine went wrong.
maybe I'll meet that special
girl along the way
then she'll break my heart
and leave me crying.
