High School Drama at its Greatest

:: Mood: cold

So my little fiesta seemed to be a success. I'm so happy to hear that people enjoyed themselves. I really did too. It was fun just listening to those songs come on and people like looking around to find people that they have a joke with about the song or something...it really brings people together. I love those/you girls so much. We're all so different and I just think we have such a good grade and I love having all of us together.

Belmont Stakes was extremely sad. I thought he won. I was so upset :( Poor Smarty. Damn Mexi haha Kate.

2 days left...wow. Craziness. I studied a bit today, yay! I have a good week ahead: 2 days of school, 2 finals...and only 3 of those days do I have to get up early which is a WONDERFUL thing for me. (math final at 12:30..I know some people hate that but it's like my savior)

Thursday is my cousin's business school graduation, so after the math final my Dad and I are gonna fly up to Boston (since the final is at 12:30 we can't make the ceremony...I could've rescheduled the final but I just didn't want to) and we'll have dinner with the fam and spend the night. I'm excited but a little worried since I'll probably be missing the whopper global review.

I'm so excited for these upcoming few weeks before everyone leaves...They're gonna be a blast.

last night in the city with all the girls was so much fun. i needed to go out and have fun with friends after yesterday, it really took my mind off my issues. bubba gump had quite the staff...dancing around and spilling ice all over the place, it was lots of fun. i didnt get a tee shirt though, i just thought i would never wear it, and it was my money, oh well. the ride there and back was really fun though, listening to all those songs from the elementary school days really makes u think about how much we've all changed, and how time really goes by fast. its kinda sad actually, i, like lauren, have a major problem with change. its something ive struggled with my whole life, and probably will for the rest of it.

i mainly studied today. uggh finals can suck my ass, thats all i have to say.

gabi and joannas cd is my life
and so is briggette
and so is josh :) im expecting a call from him soon...yay!

thats all for now, xoxo

so we have two days left....my mind is already on vacation.
thats it. im done. despite the fact that i still have 2 more days to put in, my mind has decided to be done for weeks, but i never realized that it could take such a toll on you mentally. im sick of this over-achieving town. im sick of report cards. im sick of tests, homework and those stupid award ceremonies. im sick of the people who start bugging out when they get a 98.

today was the worst day ever. i honestly bombed that math quiz, and that was my last chance for a b. i have a b minus, WITH THE PAPER AND THE BONUS PROBLEM. what happened to me? i used to be good at this. ive been so lazy lately, i cant even remember the last time i studied for a math quiz, not because i didnt need to (obviously i do, ive gotten c's on my past 3 quizzes) but just out of pure, unmistaken laziness. i have no motivation, what happened to me?

i sit here reprinting my newly revised stupid math bonus paper which she said "wasnt good enough" and doing the bonus problem. i came home and cried. i cried walking from math to italian....and it wasnt necessarily for my grade. it was for me. i used to be so motivated and so "study study study"....not anymore. i honestly dont know where that spirit went, but i wish i had it back. i wish i werent lazy, i need this b, so god help me: ms. a, please, have a heart. she saw me cry. i hate when teachers see me cry. maybe these 8 bonus points will bring it to a low b. any b will do.....any b at all.

i hate awards. i feel like i bust my ass for a whole year and i dont get recognized for it, when other people who are "naturally smart" and do nothing but get a+'s anyway the whole time get a certificate. i hate those people, u should have to work to do well. its so damn competitive. and i hate that i let it get to me. uggh god, thats it. please let me have the strength to make it through the end of this freshman year without breaking down....i cant afford to do that.

xoxo-danielle

ps- please disregard this entry if it offended anyone at all, im just blowing off steam. no harm meant.

...I'm cold and I am shamed bound and broken on the floor
Yeah, so the yearbook isn't wonderful but I think it's still cute and I'm obsessed with it.

Yanks are kicking ass lately...quite happy about that.

I've basically quit school. I'm really not doing any work, at all. I'm really winding down when everyone is supposed to be gearing up. Haven't done anything and haven't started studying for finals. I know people think I'm probably exaggerating...But I'm really not at all. It's really quite bad.

I'm excited for mi fiesta tomorrow. I totally forgot about it and people are like reminding me, and I'm like wow already? It should be fun. It's just weird because my birthday isn't for three months and people are gonna be like "happy birthday!" and I'm gonna be like what?

I should be going to the awards but I'm not. The thing is that I know I have a PTSA award but I don't know about academics (last year they didn't tell me I was getting one and I ended up getting two...quite scary) So, I'm not gonna go and sit there for 2 hours and only get one or two awards...It's not that important to me anyway. I set my own standards and it's nice that the school recognizes them but I'm proud of myself for my accomplishments even if it means that I have one too many B's for an award or just enough. And it's kind of hurtful. People should be proud of themselves for acheiving their own goals and it's really kind of a self esteem knocker when nobody in the school seems to care and it's all about A's, A's, A's.

So, that seems to be sufficient for today. I must go figure out a way to study.

Peace, enjoy the sun
Much Love<3Gabs

wow, i havent updated in a really really long time
wow, i really havent. ive just had this major woohu dry spell, theres soo much to say, i just cant sit down and type it. ive been a lazy potato lately. sigh.

today was yearbook day, and not to echo erica, but i must say, i was a tad disappointed. i mean yea, it was a good yearbook, but some how i was expecting something GREAT......and some how it wasnt. its just not the same without the annual ugly disgust-o blow up picture of me, they were all normal. wat a change of pace. so i went to the doctor today. i was stressing out, MAJOR, but thats nothing new, as u all know, im not a fan. i had a lovely sharp fresh syringe filled with tetnus fluid to look forward to. i went and it wasnt all that bad, i didnt even cry this time. thats honestly one of the very few times thats happened, considering i was practically working myself to tears just picturing dr berman holding the syringe. ahh god, i cant even think about it now, i did get a really cool circus bandaid though :) and the next time i have to get a shot is before college THANK GOD, ive got a couple of years to be stress free before my check ups...wow thats a releif. they have pink finger prickers, they were pretty. thats pretty much all, that writers block thing is still happening which is why this entry totally sucked ass biznacthhhh. i hope i get my writing back before schools over, i need my yearly refelction to be a good one. im out for now, gunna go admire my circus bandaid, it has the cutest seals on it :P

***wow, im really unproductive lately, i didnt even fix this ugly woohu...ick, ill do it later, needa go take some tylenol, tetnus is a bitch :( :(

Happy 150th Entry Woohu!
Yes so a few weeks ago I stumbled across the fact that this is the 150th entry of my woohu. I decided to build on that and do a little commemeration. So this will be a combination of end of the year post/150th woohu post. It's been almost a year...and 150 posts...wow thats like a little less than half of the year I posted...wow what a loser I am, lol. But a lot of my posts were just stupid little short ones that didn't need to exist.

Rather than just talk about the most important parts of my year I went back in time and picked out the posts that highlighted my life the past year. Some of these posts were crucial moments in my life, some I just liked and thought were cute:

June 10, 2003: First Post
June 12: That post about being grateful...I got a bitch comment about it (I will find you biatch!) but I'm still proud of it.
June 16: End of 8th grade post...I've changed so much and my end of the year state of minds have altered a lot since then.
June 23: Criteria for friends--that was cute.
August 24: Highlight of summer (by the numbers) That summer was excellent.
Aug 25: Dad's horse Carson Hollow Dies. This was a big deal for me.
Oct 19: Aaron Boone--'nuff said. KP, BS, GA at the mall..never forget that lol. I talked about people I didn't like. That's changed a lot. I like everyone now.
Oct 26: This one must have annoyed the crap out of everyone, but I'm proud of it.
Nov 19: My community service project--big deal to me...Split moods.
Nov 29: Grandma...that was a big part of the year.
Dec 3: Private Post.
Dec 16: Angry at cousin.
Dec 22: I thought I was going to die on the airplane, yeah, silly me.
Jan. 7, 2004: Conscience Vs. Heart..went with heart, thought it was wrong but in the long run I'm glad I did what I did.
Jan 15: Important part of my year... :)
Jan 31, Feb 2, 4: Grandpa passes away. This was quite a part of my year.
Feb. 21: St. Thomas
Feb 27: Frost Valley
March 3: Covers many emotional problems I had in the year that I've fixed.
March 9: My crazy family
March 17: Terrorism
Mar 21: The play!!!
March 23: I just thought it was funny...I got sick so much this year like usual.
March 31: Yet another turning point in the year...I was also doubting some friends
April 10: cute questonairre
Apr 12: Wawi...I <3 her.
April 17: Tito night...Though I got in trouble--wouldn't have changed it for the world.
May 15: <3 this quote
May 13: Spice Girls foreverrrr.

wow....that's it. I have the most posts in this little community we have (though many people deleted their journals) And I know people think lj's are for attention starved people (ahem, we def. aren't) but I'm not going to stop updating because this woohu has taught me so much about myself...and I love our community. I feel like we're all there for each other and even though we may not all hang out it's like we have this secret special bond somehow. It's weird to know that other people are reading our journals besides you guys.

This year has been insane. It's been THE year. This year changed my life like no other. I've had many "firsts" many "lasts", a death, getting caught, new friends, becoming a better person. It's all been just insane. I can't believe and comprehend how much I've changed. And I have to thank the girls who changed with me or the ones who didn't and managed to still handle me. I love you guys with all my heart. (But I will do a more specific end of the year post next week where I'll get into that stuff)

So, thank you woohu for being a place where I can learn about myself, learn about other (awesome!) people, and express my thoughts. This journal has helped me more ways than I realize. And thank you to my other woohuers for making me laugh and supporting me. I love you all.

So, signing off...Gabrielle

150 posts and countin'

so tutoring finale went fine--tear--haha i thought i wasnt going to get a card and David gives me a louis vuitton wallet. lmao.

i hate stupid things that you just want to know in order to make an observation about someone, and it's not a big deal but you just want to know.

and i hate random global tests and being exhausted.

i also hate that overwhelming fear of the future and everything it will come with, because you know that every year you have horrible moments of pain and emotional distress and you just wish they didnt have to come but you know they will and you fear which form they'll come in and how bad they'll be.

but i love looking at yearbooks and imagining what our senior year is going to be like. Who will be dating who...who will be friends...who won't...the thought of all of the memories i have just being combined and our grade just leaving is extremely frightening, overwhelming and satisfying at the same time. i cant wait til were seniors. i cant wait to culminate 13 years of our lives together...as much drama as there is it's just going to be so liberating. but im also dreading it entirely. im sorry this is extremely random and um...early, but i just was thinking about it.

well thanks for reading my random thoughts, ill stop blabbering now. i suppose im delirious from lack of sleep.

much love<33

oh sit
its been quite the interesting weekend. little dolly, oh geez. had a little 6th grade style fun with elise last night.

oliver is back, he's so cute, but it makes me realize that im so much more of a cat person.

yes and eliz i know what you mean about the peer leadership--it makes me crazy too. i dont think anything could describe it better than cliche. and while i love the girls who got picked and they're all my friends and i dont hold it against them, i really dont, it's still very frustrating and discouraging to now try other things like a-school when they dont take chances on people and stick with the obvious.

yes and ive realized how overacheiving people here are, and most of the time its not their fault, it's just the standard here that everything you do must be for college... i think im sort of in the middle...my face doesnt explode when someone talks about their college resume but i do get annoyed after a while. and i wont just give in and play a sport or do some club that i dont want to do just for college. you have to have a sense of yourself and what you like to do. while i do have a sense of my future and do things partly for college and what not, i think some people just take it a little too far. i honestly dont have anyone specific in mind but i see these conversations out there. you're life will go on if you dont get into ap euro or honors english, i promise it will. but generally i dont care if people are obsessive over it. it's not my problem or life and i understand the pressure and expectations. people just have to continue to remember that there are things that are much more important. people lose sight of that.

end of school is approaching and something about it is just very blissful i feel like ive changed a lot...i have a lot to say about this year but im planning on saving that for a nice big chunker post in a couple weeks when school is over. its hard to put into words but i have a lot to say.

it's really bizarre to see Alfonso Soriano in a Ranger's jersey. It's sort of sad. It's actually really sad.

hmm in like 2 weeks finals will be like 2 days away...i think i should start studying. or do my homework or go for a run.

nah.

i'll watch the yankee game or go to the mall instead. why not? you're only 14 once.

much love<33
