It's been a week since I wrote last.
A fairly good first (full) week of school.
I like my teachers so far. I'm not in love with any of them or anything but they're good. Schoolwork has been pretty average...A lot of work but it's still not bad.
Soccer, still can't play but we're doing great this season! yeah girls!
As for my friends..I really don't know what to expect this year...
One of my friends I'm feeling really underappreciated by, and I feel like she's been really rude lately...One I feel has changed a lot... One I feel like says stuff to me she doesn't really mean...I donno, I hope this is all in my imagination or just a phase
The dance was Friday. I really did not want to go, but it turned out to be alright. It was hilarious just to people watch.
And I don't know, I just don't feel...anything at all really. Everything is so dull and repetitive. I know I said I don't like change, but I'm contradicting myself now, I want change, I want something different, something new. I just wish something big would happen...whether it be good or bad...
AND I WANT CHRISTMAS AHHHHH!

so a lot has happened since last i wrote
first of all school...which came as quite a shocker. It was so unreal. It didn't feel like I was in school, or it did but it felt like there was no summer. Idk but it was weird as hell. Everything with school is fine. Nothing has changed. No one has changed. Nothing is different. I guess thats okay for me since im not the greatest handler of change. But besides that I think it'll be a really good year. I really have to put aside some feelings i have for certain people. It's hard but I don't want to be one of these people who dislikes someone for no reason.
Yesterday I had to get up at freakin 8 o clock to the soccer game that I couldnt play in. It was a lot of fun chattin on the sidelines and on the bus though lol. So I'm out of soccer for at least another week probably 2 or 3 more weeks. i fucked up my back really badly. Now I have to do this painful physical therapy and wear this uncomfortable belt everywhere i go. ugh i hate it. but i hate soccer more so i guess its not the worst thing in the world. hehe.
I'm really excited that football has started and the Giants won today. I'm not sure about the Dolphins though. I'll have to check into that. The Yanks won too!!! Hopefully they'll spank Detroit this week and stretch that lead against the Sox.
Wow, I sound like a sportscaster idiot. But oh well, i really love those 2 sports.
And as usual nothing too exciting going on in my life! No Drama! Sorry if I dissapointed anyone reading. I'm sure I did. I'd be bored as hell too. hehe. I guess my no-drama lifestyle is pretty good though. Things could be worse...
Peace Gabi

Three reasons I am in a great mood right now:
1) No practice tomorrow, or the next day
2) Bottom of the 8th at Fenway. Yanks up 8-6. Not worried at all cos Mariano is in, and is gonna kick some boston ASS. Go YANKEES!
3) My shower radio. I got it for my birthday. It's soooo cool. As if my singing in the shower wasn't terrible enough I now have backup music to get me into it even more ha.
hahaha life is gooooood.

Birthday
Today is my birthday. yay yay yay. Not really. I guess this is sort of the beginning of the end in a way. I guess when we were younger it was like we thought the world had to stop on our birthdays. But it doesn't haha. But I still get to feel like I dont have to do anything. And I get presents.
This morning was practice. Dumb. But I talked the mother into picking me up a little early, jus cos i didnt wanna stay. ha.
I just took a shower. I asked my parents to hide some of my gifts. I've found 3. There are 2 more hidden.
Now Im gonna eat McDonalds and get a mani/pedi. Tonite I will dine.
Glad not to be a shrimpy little 13 year old anymore. 14 is such a better age!

My dad's horse died today. The big one. The best horse he has ever had. I'm so unbelievably sad. She only had one year left to race then she was gonna make great babies! But now, she can't. I feel sooooo bad for my dad and his partners. I'm so upset right now. Ughhhh. She was such a sweet horse too.
Soccer was my biggest concern up until now. It was good today. Now it's hardly an issue.
I can't wait for the Yankee game to take my mind off of it. It's just too sad to think about.
I know there are much bigger things in life. It's just a horse. But it's still sad.

LiVin On A pRaYeR!
OoOoH...I have had a very very fun few days. On Sunday night I went to a Bon Jovi concert with Meredith! It was awesome! Soooo much fun.
Yesterday was fun too. I went to the track. My dad won his first race at Saratoga for the summer. It was so funny. Toward the end of the race, it started like torential downpouring! So we had to go to the winners circle to take the picture and we were all soaked. UGH that picture is gonna be disgusting haha.
Last night I got a major burst of homesickness. I started like aching for my friends. Thank God tomorrow Elise is coming to stay for a couple days. She'll keep me in line. And I'll get to see everyone who is home this weekend. And...Joanna is coming home from camp in ONE WEEK. ONE WEEK I get to see her. It's only for 1 day (i leave for miami on wednesday the 13th) but its something. I cannot wait.
Today I saw Seabiscuit. It was a great movie. If I didn't know anything about horse-racing, I would have been like "jigga wha?" but since I knew what was going on it was a lot more enjoyable to me.
I'm having a lot of fun here. There is so much to do. But I don't know. I want to go home--at least sometimes I do. I don't know. I'm so confused overall. It sucks. ((sigh)) only a few more days. UGH then next wed. I go to Miami ahhhhh. It's too much...I want to stay home. Im always away ahhh.
Today is the 41 anniversary of the death of Miss GlamourPuss...Freaky Deaky.
I need my friends uhhhhhhhhh...tomorrow....tomorrow...always a day away. Love*
~Just*Gabi~
(thats the name of one of my pop's horses... im not trying to be like all metaphorical)
AHHH I just remembered Last Comic Standing and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy are on tonite....see i already feel betters its all about the attitude...

Im in my pjs. I dont feel glamorous at all. But it's all about imagination.
As you can see I've changed my user picture from Miami to the gorgeous Marilyn Monroe. I find her so incredibly fascinating. She was so glamorous and beautiful. (and she was married to a Yankee hehehe) I think she is the epitome of old style sexy Hollywood glamour...I love that Audrey, Marilyn look. It's so...........i can't think of any other word, but glamorous. I would do anything to go back in time and be Marilyn Monroe for a day. OK...that's just me ranting. Im gonna start doing that more often. No one cares what Im doing during the day...I have many opinions which could be a good topic of convo.
Leave some comments if you have any thoughts on Ms. GlamourPuss Monroe...

:: Mood: listless
WTF does listless mean? I like to pick very strange moods for myself...
Today my dad's old college roomate and his 4 kids met me and my dad at the track. It was fun. They are so nice. They have a 5 year old girl. 12 year old twin boys (who have major hotty potential lol) and a 16 (i think) year old boy. I've always thought he was really hot. He still is really hot...and he's nice...and not a womanizer/pothead. He doesn't look like a junior though. He looks our age. But thats okay beacuse I look younger than I am too. UGH I wish they lived closer or we saw them more. Why dont we have more guys like him in our grade/school??? Why? Why? I know all you girls feel my pain.
Me and my dad just went to the harness track. Hahaha its hilarious. Its really nice at night and stuff...but its not as exhilirating/big/popular/normal as the regular track...There are really seedy people there. Its so scary. The race purses are like only $700 haha. It's still beautiful though. (Harness is like the jockeys who sit in the little carts and the horses are way smaller)
It really pisses me off that my summer is going so well. My summers usually suck. Now I just so CAN wait to go back to school. Im totally dreading it. Soccer is gonna suck. But im glad im playing b.c. a lot of my gal pals are playing...Id miss out on a lot. But that still doesnt take away from the fact that it sucks.
And it gets closer each day......
I just have to live for the moment...focus on each day.
Watching Selena
Waiting for the Yankee game
Hope everyone is having a great vacation!
*g*a*b*i* (dont mind me im working on new siggys)

So I got to Saratoga Friday. It's been an awesome weekend with my cuzzies. On Friday we just hung out, had dinner. Then we went to town. My cousins are usually such party animals but they came home fairly early. I dont understand how people can hold their alcohol like my they do. Its unbelieavable to me. Obviously they are older, but theyre also 1/2 Irish, im not. So I think that has something to do with it lol. I will never be like that. I have one teeny glass of champagne and Im like seeing things.
Anyway, Sat. we went to the track. I love the track. Then we went JET SKIING...It was awesome, I didn't get to drive but I might be able to tomorrow. Yesterday we went to the track casually. Dammmmn, if anyone is ever broke, trust me, go bet on a horse it pays well!
Sometimes we go to the track fancy, like in a box and all dressed up. But we can also just go casual and wear what we want and eat regular stuff. I like both. It depends on my mood. Today we also went to the barn, and fed my dads horses. It was wonderful. lol.
Yesterday one of my cousins left, one more is left. Tonite were going to the drive in ...yeah baby.
My summer is going really well...surprisingly. I dont have the best luck with summers. I just still really miss everyone. But the summer is more than half way there so ill be seeing them soon soon soon! Im just totally dreading school and soccer. UGH UGH UGH...
Im sorry this was another long post...I hate long posts...They suck. But I had a lot to say. It makes me happy when im having fun somewhere.
ahhhh I just found some live savers gummies in my bag yes yes yes these babys are the best...i gg enjoy them

There's nothing much to say. I babysat this morning, I'm babysitting this afternoon. I am getting paid tomorrow. YES!
I really really am missing my friends BADLY. Yesterday I wrote 3 of them a joint letter and wrote out every single thing I missed about being with them lol.
In the past years I've always found best friends that I thought would last, but of course nature takes its course, people change, ive been hurt, theyve been hurt. It sucks but its natural. Theres only a couple girls who from day 1 ive been close to and still am. But this year I think I really found my nitch. Theres a few girls who I dont think I could live without (and im having to do that this summer, but theres a couple i dont habe to do that with phew) Thats never happened to me before. I usually like being away from my friends for a couple months, but nope, not this time.
I think the following seperates friends and best friends from true sisters:
1) It's hard to live without them
2) You can 100% be yourself around them, and you can have the weirdest or nastiest habits or questions and not be embarassed to share it.**very important**
3) You never have to lie to them, even the smallest whitest lie. You can be honest, cos you know they'll understand and vice versa (see 6)
4) When you're with them you dont wanna leave
5) They're nice and thoughtful
6) They never lie to you or betray you and never have before
7) You dont need to keep reminding them that they are your bff, they already know. Vice Versa. And they don't pressure you to answer things you dont want to. They respect privacy.
8) They know when something is wrong. V V
9) You've never laughed harder than when you're with them
10)*I really like this one: Even when there is silence its never awkward ever. Its never like "Uh wat do u wanna do" "uh i dont know" you know what i mean? Everything is always 100% comfortable
This is my criteria and i have a few that totally fit the description and i think that the girls im thinking off will be my friends forever. Dont get me wrong i love to make new friends but i also like to have a group i can always count on for the 10 criteria.
Well ony a month or so left! I cannot wait!
More later*Gabrielle

Money and Bags
So today I babysat for 5 hours. She wouldn't fuckin let me leave. ahhhh, it was miserable. But at least this means i get paid a lot. I made a lot of cash last week babysitting and working at my dads office.
Hopefully this week will be just as successful. There's this awesome coach bag im dying for. I have enough money saved up from since the day i was born, I could probably have bought 100 of them by now, but I really like to save my money especially since i do absolutely nothing to get it usually. Most of it is from things like Confirmation, rich family members, etc... but there's something about earning your money by hard work that makes you want to spend it. (i especially feel that way since ive never worked before in my life) So im using all my "work" money for the bag, ahh i cant wait. im such a freakin bag junkie. i have like an illness. my ********* are "coach, burb, and louis" lol eg,jb,kp,sz
Going to get a pedi.
Still miss my friends terribly.
Summer is awesome though.
Cant wait for Friday.
Everyone needs to go see Seabiscuit this weekend.
peace&love*gabrielle
