Ow. Today hurt. Not physically, but you get the idea. Wow. Ok anyway. I didnt turn in my stuff for swimming today, I decided to wait until Liz could come with me, which is tomorrow..I really didnt want to go in there by myself, he's much too intimidating..and I have something in my eye, and it wont come out! Owwie!
Today wasnt so bad...I guess. P.E. will be a breeze, which is fine with me...and I havent been to my other new class yet. Yes, I do feel bad for quitting swim team, but not TOO bad. I just feel I could be doing more productive things with my time. I mean, I OBVIOUSLY have no future in swimming, so I'd rather spend time doing stuff I might actually have a future in...I'm not an athletic kind of person, I prefer sitting on my butt to riding my bike. Which is why I cant wait to drive so I dont have to use that stupid bike at all...my brother uses it more than me anyway. At least, I cant wait til Mia can drive, then I wont have to use it as much either. We were thinking about going to Jamba Juice yesterday, but it was a little cold...perhaps tomorrow might be better, its actually supposed to get up into the 70's. But yeah, I dont really have anything else to say...I'm so tired, I just want to go home....

..............................
Hi. I'm bored. So here I am. I got mad at my family last night. It sucked. Too lazy to give all the details. Maria and I plan to do something over here. Sometime..whenever she finishes taking down Christmas decorations.
Dad is thinking about getting a new job...he's actually been thinking about it for a while now. His boss doesnt respect him or something like that...yeah. But I dunno, whatever...
I dont want to go back to school tomorrow. It was too nice just...staying home...I dont want to go back to Mrs. Parham. Her class is such a drag, I just...dread it. I want to get out of it, but...yeah.
AJ has friends over. Stupid people..they're so loud.
The cable in here on the TV isnt working..stupid cable.
Hm. Greg is home..guess that means Mom is home too...oh well.
I'm in a very complainy kind of mood today. Did you notice?
Mom isnt home. Hm. Wonder how Greg got here then. Although he brought a friend with him. So that's 3 extra annoying boys in the house. Ok, Mom just called. So guess she is coming home...at least she's on her way. Maybe she can stop the madness in this house....ok done. Bye.

What's Your Quote on Life? brought to you by Quizilla
Which Type of Music Are You? brought to you by Quizilla
Yay..one is the same as Jason, the other shows..a slight difference. He and I really are a lot alike, but I STILL think I'm more like Mia. Well, if you've read Mia's journal entry, you've seen how she and Ian have hit a tough spot. I'll have to get a hold of her and ask her about it. (If you werent smart enough to connect the dots before, in my last entry, I was talking about Mia and Ian.)
But yeah. Check...2 things of my To Do list. I cleaned my room and straightened my hair..although I didnt do too good of a job, and its a little dirty, so I'm gonna go wash it later.
Wow ya know what? I didnt get up until like..12:20 today. Then I didnt get out of bed until 1:30 or so...I was just feeling sooo tired this morning. But I'm gonna make myself go to bed semi-early this morning, because I would LIKE to go to the 9 o'clock service at church tomorrow, to see the Youth choir sing..omg, last time I saw them sing, I just...sat there in awe..I could close my mouth, I just sat there and stared..because I didnt know that a YOUTH choir could be THAT good. I mean, they dont practice everyday or anything. Its just wow. See, I feel like..at school, I'm just...I dont know, I'm wasting my talent in that pathetic excuse for a choir. But Mr. Detrick, the director at CHHS, is the Youth Music Minister at my church, and so naturally, we have like..one of the best youth church choirs around. But yeah, enough of that...I'm done now, I've said enough. Bye!

What Weird Quote Are You? brought to you by Quizilla
Hm. Same as Jason. He does tend to say we are a lot alike...although I personally see more of a resemblance mind-wise between Mia and myself...
My friend seems upset over her boyfriend. She feels like he is crowding her, and from what she has told me, it sounds like he is...My friend is just not ready for a really serious relationship, she wants to be able to play around, ya know? Now, I'm all for a serious relationship, and I'm happily in one...which is great and peachy for me. But she's not ready, and she's thinking that if he doesnt back off soon...they're going to be done. And I just really dont want to see that happen, they were supposed to turn out like Jason and I!! It was supposed to be great!!! But now I see that she isnt really....I'm not going to say ready, because she could handle it, its just that she's not....hmm...its not the right time for a commitment. She just wants to have fun, ya know?
But yeah, enough about my friend. Hmm..I spent the night at Mia's last night, did I tell you that? That was fun. We listened to music, came up with potentials as banquet dates and b-day party people, played monopoly until we got bored, then talked for 2 hours about everything....it was great. But yeah...I'm done. I've said enough, even if it wasnt mainly about me.
~Mindy
To do list:
1) Pick up the clothes off my floor. And change my sheets.
2) Straighten my hair..its getting poofy.
3) Ask Mom about POSSIBLY going to CHHS next year (maybe she'll let me if I promise to be anti-school spirit).
4) Get to know James and Reuben a little better...they are(for the moment) my possible dates to banquet.
5)Somehow bring up the subject of having a few friends over for a birthday thing...maybe(I'm not much of a party thrower).
6) Somehow bring up the subject of driving to Austin in May.....gotta be there for him......

Love.
When people talk about love, they dont talk about the obsessive part of it. The part that makes you mad at their parents, when they drag them somewhere, or (in my case) at football, which will drag Jason away from me probably more easily than his family. Or how mad you can get at your own family, tearing you away. I dont know how many times I have screamed at my mom and brothers because they were trying to keep me away from him.
And then there is that responsibility you feel towards them. Like, I feel responsible for keeping Jason happy, for taking care of him (at least in a sense) and being there for him. When I talked to Jason about his graduation, and when he told me he would rather have his cousin there than me, I practically started crying. I couldnt speak to him, I was so hurt. I just sat there, staring...because he was trying to deny me my responsibilities. He finally changed what he said, saying he didnt mean it. I know it isnt likely I'll make it down to Austin to see him graduate, but he could at LEAST give me the chance to do so.
I mean...Mia will be driving soon. What am I saying, Mia's parents would never let her drive down to Austin only a WEEK after getting her license. Hey, Mia, I thought your parents were supposed to trust you a bit more after your quince, not tighten the leash?
But really. Dont take it wrong, I love having these responsibilities, and I certainly would rather be mad at my family over something like him rather than something...really bad. So yeah...Love is grand...its just....I dunno. It can be very, very frustrating at times. Well, that's all I really had to say. I just had to let out how I was feeling right now.

P.S. Sorry it took me so long to update.

Hmm...
I'm thinking about donating that $5 to this site, like he wants us to. I mean, its only $5 and I have THAT much to spare. Who knows though. It would just be nice, but whatever. Mel got a hamster yesterday, it is soooo cute. Its white with a grey stripe on its back and grey ears. But yeah, I dont really have much to say, just thought I'd let you people know I'm alive!

:: Music: First Harry Potter movie
Caput Draconis.
Yeah. I'm at my Uncle's house now. This place is pretty cool. Its kinda new, this is their first Christmas in this house. They moved in..maybe in May? I dont know, but whatever. Tomorrow they're having this big old poker party that everyone is coming to. During which Gramma gets to take all her grandkids out and go see a movie (it will probably be the second Harry Potter) and then she's buying Mel a hamster, as a Christmas present. Mel's old hamster died on Halloween, so she's gonna get a new one. But yeah, I really wanna take a shower. So we're gonna go do that. Bye!

Christmas at the Helmers'
Ok, I'm at my Gramma's house now. It was fun, we got here around 3 and kinda hung out here for like...45 minutes. In which I re-straightened my hair. Yeah, then we went to church and had all that fun stuff. So we got back home and just kinda hung out and snacked on whatever until like...8:30. And then we went and opened presents. I got some lifesavers, $10, and 2 picture frames. And then the last things were 3 rolled up presents from Gramma, each for a branch of the family (my mom and dad, Uncle Ken and Aunt Cathy, Aunt Barb) and they were rolled up brochures for CRUISES to the CARIBBEAN. Is that just the coolest thing or WHAT?! Gramma says she will pay for the trip, but we have to choose a date, and anything else we have to pay for ourselves. Which isnt much, just the usual tours of ruins and things we buy at each stop. And it probably wont be until the summer, but doesnt that just sound so COOL?! It was funny, you could tell my mom was happy because her voice was squeaking a lot. Lol. It sounds like a lot of fun, I cant wait. I think we're wanting to go around...June 10th? Something like that. I noticed that I look really really good with my hair straight, and the highlights and all. Its pretty cool. Oh yeah, ha ha, did I tell you Mom gave my highlights yesterday morning, and I got a hair straightener for Christmas? Oh well, if I did, I just gave you a convenient reminder. Rocky chases Gramma's cat, Checkers, whenever she comes out from hiding under the bed. It was funny, Uncle Ken stuck his foot out to try and stop Rocky from chasing Checkers, and he got clobbered and fell down. It was sooo great. Everyone in my family(that is, parents and brothers and me) got THE (Mom always yells at me because I forget the "the") Ohio State University jackets. My parents love them most, but that's because they both attended OSU. But yeah. Whatever. So tonight was a great night. And I love my new skirt and dress, although all I really want to do at the moment is just...change and go lay down. So I'll probably do that. I miss all you peoples!!

Vacation.
I'm going on vacation later today. Mom just got up, so I'll probably have to go get ready for something sooner or later. I'll be keeping this updated during my trip for certain people who would probably go crazy if they didnt know what I had been doing the whole time. I wish it would snow. There was a chance of it last night, but of course, it didnt come. Oh well, I'll survive. At least I've seen snow a couple times in my life. Every winter in New Jersey, and every winter down here, now that we've moved back, except this one. And a few times when we lived in Plano, but not as many. So yeah, I've had my share of snow, and I know a few people who havent. And that must suck. I love snow. Its just that small little innocent thing that makes Christmas...kind of complete. But yeah, I think I'm done now. I'll talk later, when I'm at Gramma's house.
