homework(or lack of)

i feel like i haven't really had that much homework lately for some reason...it's kind of nice, but i have a feeling that that's going to change...
WAIT...it is. because i have a crazy amount of tests next week, including two quizzes in latin and a history test on monday that i probably should study for...it's so annoying...one week, i'll have no homework and plenty of time to check my facebook/watch youtube videos and then the next week i have major projects and/or tests in every single one of my subjects(not counting pe)...maybe i should just enjoy my lack of homework and not worry about what it means...
i finished making all my cupcakes for halloween. it took longer than i expected thanks to a lack of eggs, a broken timer and some miscalculations...
if anyone wants any cupcakes, i have about six/seven that i won't be needing anymore...

marcus zusak

the book thief is a good book. correction: it is one of the best books ever written. basically, it is about this girl named lisel who lives in a town outside of munich during world war two with her foster parents. her foster parents decided to take in a Jewish refugee named max. the whole book is all about growing up and losing things you love and falling in love. and to make it even more interesting, it's narrated by death.
when i first read the book thief, i skipped the long, slightly boring middle section and i had no idea what was going on in the ending. so i went back and reread it. and when i finished it, i was sobbing. i know that i cry at the end of a lot of books, but the book thief really really made me just want to curl up in a ball and bawl like a baby. the writing was so good and the ending was so bleak, but so uplifiting. i suggest that if you haven't read it, you should. and don't skip any of it.
so, yesterday, i was trying to find out what the author, marcus zusak, address is so i can write to him for advice on how to be good at writing and to see if he was going to be speaking near me soon. but it turns out he hasn't written anything since 2006, which is when he wrote the book thief. if any of you know a way to contact him, i'd love to know it, since i really do want to write to him

halloween

this year for halloween i'm not trick-or-treating or anything. i'm having a really good friend of mine come over and we're probably just going to eat candy and watch bad action movies. i'm kind of excited for that. i'm not really in mood for going out and asking for candy and all that fun stuff. i did that last year with a group of friends and we kept getting these weird looks from everyone we asked for candy from because obviously, when you are thirteen, it is not socially acceptable to trick-or-treat. so i doubt it's all right when you are fourteen.
actually, the whole idea of halloween isn't all that appealing this year...

cupcakes

i'm sort of feeling sickened by the thought of frosting for some odd reason. maybe because i'm going to have to make quite a few cupcakes tonight and i'm not looking forward to it. because i already know i'm going to eat tons of frosting because it's so good and then feel absolutely sick to my stomach. i was trying to explain halloween-o-grams to some of my fencing friends, but none of them really got it. i honestly should be used to that. i guess there are some casti traditions that people don't understand...
ugh...but frosting...the thought of it is making me feel a little queasy. i doubt that even funfetti will help...

tri-tip

just finished dinner and had the most amazing tri-tip steak ever. i'm not quite sure where my mom buys them, but they are amazing. the meat literally falls apart in your mouth. it is sooo good...i think the four of us ate almost 2 pounds. impressive, huh???
i had almost no homework tonight, so i'm thinking about maybe getting ahead in history/english/latin...
i know this is short, but once again, i have nothing of interest to say

days off

we don't have school today b/c the teachers need to write comments and such...which means i should be finding out how i did in the first quarter sometime around...let's see...mid-november. that's the problem with living in the middle of nowhere. you get everything in the mail a week after the people who live in civilization.
i have mixed feelings about not having school. when you have a day off, but no one else does, you can either 1. take advantage of that and go shopping/out doing fun stuff with all of your friends and not have to wait in any lines or something. or 2. sit around at home watching youtube videos/reading fanfic and being a total loser. i'm currently doing the second one. and i am bored out of my mind and am waiting for a video to load/reading gofugyourself.com/hoping someone will interact w/ me on facebook or something so i won't go insane. and in a few hours, i will need to begin worrying about starting all the homework i have to do...
it's almost as bad as being sick. b/c when you're sick, you lie in bed all day and relax and then watch tv for a few hours. but then at around 5, you realize that you missed a day of school and have to get all caught up...which is very annoying...
whatever...i'll go and stare at the amazing shoes i bought yesterday for the fddd or something to amuse myself

xerxes

the name for the computer is going quite well...i think it's name shall be chomondley. and my iPod will be called xerxes. i think...the names will probably change over time
i was once tried to watch the 300. i fell asleep after around ten minutes and was woken up an hour later by my insane friends chanting...but i did get to see the bit with xerxes...very interesting...
i will not be using the name grendel. bad experience from reading a very odd translation of beowolf. that epic poem is weird...the odyssey is better.
speaking of the odyssey, we have to do a project about the odyssey. and my group is writing a rap. it is pretty...interesting...sheep are quite a major part of it...

the opera

today, my class is going to the opera...oh joys...i'm actually kind of excited/anxious about what is likely to happen, especially since we may be getting cookies during intermission.
my mom was making listen to some music from the opera we're seeing(the elixer of love). it was...interesting. couldn't exactly understand what was going on b/c i don't speak french/italian fluently. at least at the opera there will be subtitles.
going to the opera reminds me of how last thanksgiving/new years(i forget which) my parents made me watch some french musical made in the 1960s with subtitles. it was the most pointless thing ever. and i'm still not sure why i sat through it.
i don't think the opera will be as bad. i've been to the opera before and it can be fun, especially if it's motzart. motzart's not half-bad. and my mom is taking us to see the most famous opera of all time or something this year...should probably start trying to get excited.

mealtimes on saturday

on the weekends, i eat meals at very odd hours. i usually don't eat anything for breakfast and then at around eleven/twelve, i stumble into the kitchen and find something edible and eat it. and then i am content until it's time to eat dinner, which can vary from night to night...
today, after reading another part in the shoebox project, which is amazing, i was really hungry so i went in the kitchen to have something to eat. and i had the most amazing thing ever...day old indian food heated up. there's this indian restaurent we get food from all the time. and when we get food, it's usually enough to last us for a few days. and sometimes, they give us free stuff, which is amazingly nice...i had no idea how amazing cold tandoori chicken could be...i was ripping it apart with my teeth like some sort of wolf. it was that good...seriously, i could eat cold tandoori chicken every weekend for breakfast for the rest of my life and be happy...

the things you learn in latin

latin is a pretty weird class. we sit around and learn how to say things like "the slave's blood splatters on the ground as he is torn apart by lions". and learn about roman food/weddings/how the romans sacraficed animals to the gods. it can be really really really boring sometimes, especially when we are conjugating endless verbs, but then we learned something kind of weird/sick/out of the ordinary and the class becomes a bit more bearable.
in the past two days, i found out that cleopatra married her younger brother. he was ten and she was eighteen. might just say that i am hugely glad that i do not have a little brother. and then we found out that julius ceasar's big rival, pompey, was caesar's son-in-law. b/c caesar had his fifteen/sixteen/underage daughter marry pompey who was fifty at the time...that would be like me marrying...i don't know...hugh laurie. except if hugh laurie wasn't hot. and finally, we learned, that the guy who killed caesar, brutus, might have been caesar's son. way to show the love. (yeah. we're reading about caesar right now in latin. is it that obvious???)

um...

so...i'm still trying to decide what to name my computer...i'm definitly going for chomondley(which is pronounced chum-ley)...it's a pretty cool name...i first heard of it from the jeeves books by pg woodhouse.
tonight, at dinner, i got yelled at by my sister because i did not know how tall boys who go to eton have to be to wear long pants(it's for my halloween costume). it turns out you have to be five four. i can not pass for five four, but honestly, it's just a costume...and then she yelled at me because i thought george orwell was a communist. turns out he was a socialist...and then i attempted to eat my dinner...and i had this mini cinnamon roll thing which my mom bought from trader joe's or safeway's or some market...it's so good...
i know this is random but i have nothing to talk about. somebody give me a topic...

political woes

okay...
so...right now, with the elections coming up, i'm really worried about 2 things.
1. that prop 8 would be passed. honestly. people who are gay are humans. they should be able to marry who ever they want. and besides, if prop 8 passes, will all those marriages be invalid? i think it'd be awful to get married and then a few months later, find out your marriage was invalid and have to move to another state. besides, if prop 8 got passed, it'd make california look really bad. we're the state that's always supposed to be ahead of the game. we're the state with the most hybrids(i think). how stupid would we look if allowed gay marriage for a few months and then just went back on our words?
2. i'm scared that mccain will win. why? because it probably will happen. there's some thing called the bradley effect where an african-american guy is winning in the polls before the election, but then ends up losing the election. and i have a bad feeling that that is what will happen in this election. and if mccain wins, we're kinda screwed. why? mccain is old. and it is pretty likely that he could die when he's in office. and then Sarah Palin will take over. and then we're really in trouble
if either of these two things happen, i'm thinking about giving up my american citizenship and moving to wales.
by the way, i'm thinking of naming my computer. i am in between CHUMONDLEY, GRENDEL and XERXES. which one should i choose? input would be awesome.

why next tuesday is likely to be intense

so...i really don't know what to talk about, so i'll just talk a bit about one of my favorite tv shows. house md.
i began watching in seventh grade because i'd be working in the family room and my mom would start watching, so i began watching it as well and it is really good...and this season is my favorite yet. and i'm really excited for next week's episode because it looks pretty intense and i have a really strong feeling that house and cuddy are going to kiss. i have been wanting house and cuddy to become a couple for a really long time and now they might...i do know they are going to kiss in an episode that's coming up, i just don't know which one yet...
another reason why tuesdays are intense: on tuesdays, my sister has guitar lessons. and during her lessons, my mom and i go to culture, which is this new frozen yogurt place on california avenue. and it's really good. like even more addicting that fraiche. and i think it's cheaper, but it might not be...i need to check that out...
oh. and read the good theif. it's this really good book my mom gave to me. it's all about this orphan kid who is trying to find out where he comes from. i just began it and i love it...

i had a good idea for this, but then i forgot it

i had a good idea as to what to talk about...but then i forgot what it was going to be. so i'll just ramble once again
1. they might make a doctor who movie. that makes me so excited. it might be hard to make it so that american audiences understand the plot-line, but that can be solved by introducing a new companion b/c the doctor tells his life story to all his new companions
2. tomorrow is friday. duh. but i'm so excited b/c this week has been really tiring for some reason and i really need the break
3. math. i totally get how to find the center of a rotation now. it is getting so easy for me. i'm really happy about that because i was having all this trouble with it...
4. culture. this new frozen yogurt place opened by my hairdresser's. it's the whole organic, sour yogurt thing like fraiche, but it's a lot smoother, which i like.

the disney channel

this is going to make people mad. i can already tell. personally, i do not like disney channel. sure, it's fun to watch hsm with friends and make fun of it the entire time. but after being forced to watch the same hannah montana episode(with selena gomez in it) for almost two hours over iceland, i have really grown to despise the disney channel. i can understand why younger kids love it(my seven year old second cousin is a perfect example). and not everything that they made was that bad. high school musical was fine. until they decided to make sequels and have tons of other movies with the same plot lines. but i just don't get those adults who'd spend tons of money in order to see miley cyrus/jonas brothers sing live. and i really don't get that new show with dylan and cole sprouse(the suite life on deck). i watched one episode and felt ill. i think disney channel is fun to watch once in a while with your friends when you are super bored and nothing's on. some of the people are actually really talented and i bet will go really far. and then other's will get pregnant at 16 or be involved in a whole semi-nude photos on vanity fair cover scandal. it's just in my opinion, there are better shows out there that are just as good and funny and have just as more talent from young stars(skins is a pretty good example).

the final battle(debate)

so. the last of the debates was last night. i watched most of it. and almost fell asleep at some points. my main opinions.
1. what was up with the ties? both of them were striped, which is a look i never like. and what was up with wearing the opposite party's colors. very weird. but mccain's was worse thanks the odd thickness of the white stripes.
2. the whole negative campaign ads. i think obama made a good point that the huge amount of negative obama ads in mccain's campaign say more about mccain than obama. and they do. it makes it seem like that mccain thinks the only way to make himself look good is to make obama look bad. he'd look a lot better if he praised obama, instead of insulting him.
3. the smiles. in my opinion, a good president needs a good smile. even when he's really tense, obama manages to smile and seem somewhat relaxed. i think mccain was trying to imitate that. the thing is, mccain's smile reminds me of a troll. Come to my house, little children...I'm going to getcha...
4. the camera shots. no matter what angle the camera was shooting, you'd always see some guy's hand that was half cut off. i think it was the moderator's and it only went away during the close-ups...it was really annoying. i'm assuming that nbc/fox/cnn spend a lot of money filming the debates. couldn't they at least make sure that no people's hands appear to be cut off?
all in all, the debate was interesting. i think obama won by a bit, but only because he managed to make mccain/palin look bad for running all those obama is a terrorist ads. my highlight: when mccain was aked why palin would be a good president and had to think for a few minutes.

the best of the best

hercules is the best disney movie. no questions asked. there are no movies that come even close. trust me on this. i was once part of a two hour debate to find the best disney movie. and hercules won hands down. why is it so good? no idea. personally, i think it's because of the muses and pain and panic. they are the best supporting characters ever.
after hercules? sadly, the debate narrowed down the movies to 4 possible second places.
they are: aladdin, beauty and the beast, pocahauntus(already apologize for having no spelling ability) and mulan.
we couldn't decide which was the best out of those four. personally, i go for beauty and the beast. or aladdin.

the lovely family

so, i was talking to my cousin, carolyn, yesterday. and basically, our grandmother(the alive one) is turning seventy this january. and she and her twin sister are inviting the whole family to las vegas to party. well, everyone except my two cousins, my sister and me. way to make us feel loved.
and my cousin thought that we should somehow sneak on the plane and go to vegas and try to pass for 21. because of course, someone who barely hits five feet(me) would be able to pass for 21. maybe 12. but not 21. no way.
we decided instead, that either i should fly to illinois or that she should fly to california and hang out for a week and do all sorts of crazy shennagins.

grilled chese

one last little post...because it's not quite ten yet...
today's lunch was awesome. two words: grilled cheese. and tomato soup. before i began going to my current school, the idea of eating grilled cheese and tomato soup never occured to me. now, it's the only way i eat the sandwiches. ever. no joke. and not only was there grilled cheese, there was also that amazingly good yellow cake with white frosting. that cake is sinfully good. i had at least two and a half pieces, even though we technically should only have one(but it's not like anyone else is going to eat them twenty minutes into late lunch). and icing is delicious. even if everything tasted like cotton, it was good.
going to bed for real now.

period 5 geometry honors

this year, i managed to jump up a level in math from algebra 1 to geometry honors. it's been hard to maintain the math grade i had last year, which has lead to a few melt-downs and late night phone calls to my aunt who is a math teacher.
but overall, it's been so much fun...my teacher is really good and funny and this year is one of the first time i look forward to going to math. because it is so fun. we just sit around, eat candy, get off topic, hyperventilate and (sometimes) talk about the previous night's math homework. all in all, tons of fun.
at first i was afraid that everyone in my class would be super-smart and i'd look like a complete idiot and fail, but it's really fun and i'm doing better than i did last year in math

the dentist

today, i had a dentist appointnment. it was just the usual check-up thing. so of course, i spent around ten minutes this morning brushing my teeth and flossing and all that fun stuff.
the actual check-up wasn't so bad. just the usual x-rays and being taught how to brush. you'd think that they'd realize that a girl who's been brushing for 11 years would know how to operate an electric toothbrush...obviously not. but the good news is that i still have no cavities! that is the one good thing about my teeth. they never have cavities.
the bad news is that at my dentist they are using a new type of flouride. the old type was all foamy and tasted like grape and was the type that meant that you couldn't eat/drink for half an hour. the new type is literally varnish that they paint on your teeth. it tastes totally nasty and makes your teeth feel like cotton. and then, as it dries, it turns brown and begans coming off which makes you look like your teeth are rotting or something. it's nasty...
i love you: how do i know you aren't just one of my friends playing a trick on me?

the e!

so...one night when we were in los angeles, my mom had to go somewhere and left my sister and i alone in our hotel room with a tv and a remote control. needless to say, bad idea. we spent a lot of time flipping through other channels. we watched about five minutes of this show called "queer as folks" on lifetime or something. i had no idea what was going on, but it seemed pretty good.
then we watched a bit of animal planet. did you know that argentine ants make up the largest swarm on earth? i bet than any day, they will choose to kill us all...*cue scary theme music*
i saw a bit of the daily show for the first time. john stewart is a genius. and i don't like stephen colbert as much for some weird reason.
and then, being the teenagers that we are, we watched the E! for a bit. at first it was just the usual...celebrity gossip, fashion mistakes, making fun of stupid reality tv stars(cough, paris hilton, cough). all in all, good fun. and i learned something very interesting...but i forgot what it was, being the genius that i am

dreams

okay...so, i had this crazy-weird dream last night. it was kind of half a dream, half a nightmare. it started off being all cool and avatar-esque and then it ended up being really really creepy. whenever i have a nightmare and the scary stressful part is about to happen, my brain decides to not let the dream keep going but instead to obsess over every little detail of the dream. it's really annoying because i will be like "what's going to happen next?" but my brain is like "hm...what color is the jacket is the evil elvis attached to the giant harry spider wearing?"
yes. my average nightmare involves evil elvis attached to tarantulas or being chased around parent's bathroom by a panther while my classmates look on or fighting demons with the jonas brothers. the last one was really scary...
and a lot of my dreams involve tv shows. the one i had a few nights ago was all about me helping a desginer on project runway design summer-wear. and i had this other one where i was in an episode of "house". the worst bit though, is when i have a nightmare, i can't go to sleep right away or it'll keep going, but with my good dreams, they just end at a certain point and won't come back

i'm totally jealous of my friend because she got to go down to nevada to convince independents and democrats who hadn't voted for a bit to vote for barack obama and she said that it was really fun. it sounds like tons of fun. i really want barack obama to become president for so many reasons that i really wish i could take her place...
i saw "nick and norah's infinite playlist" this weekend. i liked it fine, i just felt like that certain things went on a little too long/weren't really important to the plot. and i thought it'd be way more interesting if the movie ended after nick went one way with tris and norah went the other way with tal. but overall, it was good movie. michael cera and kat dennings are really good...
i got this really cute t-shirt that says "to kill a mockingbird" on it b/c tkam is one of my favorite books ever since we read it last year in english. and i got a pedicure and my toenails are bright, bubblegum pink and really cute and i wish i could wear flip-flops to school...

back at home(at last)

i'm back from my trip to l.a. which was half-fun, half-sucky. the fun bit was going shopping(i got this super cute little black day dress) and getting to see my family/a really good friend. and when i saw that friend, she told me that she checks my blog everyday for updates. that made me feel incredibly loved. and of course ordering room service and getting to go swimming on a rooftop pool that over looks the whole city is always fun.
the sucky bit, of course, was going to my grandmother's memorial and crying my eyes out in front of a bunch of old people who i'd never met before. that was really not fun. oh and having to sleep on one of the most uncomfortable beds ever wasn't so great. my neck is a giant ball of pain because of it.

just some random clarifications/other stuff

1. sadly, this year, the school admin has decided to make spirit week "less competive". which was really annoying because the whole point of spirit week was to have everyone just up exactly alike in crazy costumes and run around the circle. and this year, it was all about building "school-wide bonding" and "eliminating stress" or something like that. i feel bad for all the new kids. they missed out.
2. i know that hospital doors all sometimes soundproof. the poem i wrote about hearing someone scream in the hospital isn't meant to be taken literally. it's a poem about how i was feeling. honestly.
3. might i just say how i'm actually liking history again? we're learning about the slave trade, which is a subject i find fascinating. actually, anything that has to do with politics and social issues from europe(mostly england) in the 1600s-1900s is interesting in my opinion.
4. i love my uggs. my feet were really sore from fencing, so i put my uggs on and i felt so much better.
5. on bbc, they had this story about how they found a really old copy of the bible. the oldest known copy. and how it was really different that the bible we use now. there was nothing in it about jesus's ressurection/going up to heaven and jesus was sometimes protrayed as very cruel. interesting, no?

competitions

i had to go to a fencing competition on saturday. don't get me wrong. i love to fence. and competitions are usually really fun, especially when a bunch of your friends go and everyone gets there early and you sit around and talk.
but this competition was kind of off. it was an open competition which meant anyone below a certain ranking could go to it, which means it's not just people in your age group. and then a few of my friends didn't show up and one of them was supposed to bring a camera and stuff. and then all my foils and things started failing and i kept getting penalized and loosing points...all in all, i didn't do a great job.
but i still had fun hanging out with one of my really good friends, which was nice, especially since she lives up in san francisco and i don't always get to see her...and i got to meet some other fencers my own age. that's the best bit about competitions besides hanging out with your friends. you get to meet more fencers your own age...
i'm busy watching avatar which is an amazing show...and then it'll be time for dinner.

the epic battle part 2

given what sarah palin did on the katie couric interview, i was expecting her to say something like that pakistan and israel were the same country in the debate. so i was pleasently suprised when she didn't do that bad of a job.
my personal opinions on the debate
1. why is everyone unable to pronounce "iran" "iraq" and "nuclear". is that like a requirement or something if you want to run for high ranking governmental office? because it's not that hard to pronounce any of them...
2. sarah palin's eyelashes and biden's teeth. biden's teeth are like scary white. and palin's eyelashes look kind of painted on. you notice those things when you see their faces in close up for an hour and a half.
3. who thought it was totally sad/cute that biden got all choked up when he was talking about his dead wife? i had a total "oh. poor guy. i feel so sorry for him" moment. very well done.
4. sarah palin's hair. the entire debate i was wondering how palin was wearing her hair. it was kinda a braid, but not really.
5. i had no idea that obama was anti-gay marriage...very distressing.

tonight is the night of the big palin/biden debate. and i have to admit, i'm pretty interested. from what i've read on bbc/seen in online interviews/heard is that both biden and palin can be good debaters, but that they both can say things that they later regret.

honestly, i feel sorry for palin's kids. they were just an ordinary family living in alaska, going to school, doing homework, the usual. and then their mom gets offered to be john mccain's running mate and agrees and the whole family is thrown in the spotlight. imagine not having anyone know who you are one day, and then the next being some of the most talked about people in the united states. 

i feel really bad for bristol. she was just an ordinary teenaged girl who made a mistake. does she really deserve to be mocked for it? at least she's older than jamie lynn.

wannabes

so, now apparently it's a crime to like england and to think guys are cute...because that is what everyone thinks. do i think that the jonas brothers are cute? no. do i think that bloody robert pattinosn is hot? no. am i obsessed with cory lindley? no. 

just because i like the same things as other people doesn't make me a wannabe. do i like ice cream? yes. does that make a wannabe? no. do i like jeans? yes. does that make me a wannabe? no. just because you like the same things as people doesn't mean that you're a wannabe. a lot of my friends like the jonas brothers? do i think that they are wannabes? no. they like different things than me. that's all.

and what is wrong with talking in questions? that's what i want to know
