Monday

Today is Monday. You know, just in case you couldn't tell by the post title. Anyway, I have nothing to do today*, so I thought I'd write something on here. Mind you, whatever I write will be completely pointless and most likely the most boring thing you've ever read, but keep in mind that you chose to read this. Well, now that I've successfully put you to sleep, I'm sure you won't mind if I write all about what's going to be happening in the next few months.

July- I'm being forced by my mother to visit my family in Vermont. Of course, if you read my post from back in January about my last trip there, you'll know that I'm really not a fan. I would have liked to stay here, but Mom doesn't seem to think 17 is an appropriate age to stay at home by myself, so I have to sit in a tiny car, listening to Justin Bieber for hours on end and trying to sleep sitting up. Not fun.

August- Hopefully, I'll be able to get in a visit to Pensacola before school starts, but I'm doubting that will be possible. Maybe I'll find a way to visit the school for a bit, but that's unlikely. Whatever, I'll think of something.

September- Jameson and Veronica will be starting school again, so I won't have anyone waking me up during my sleeping hours (yay). Also, I'm going to try starting a new homeschool program, since the one I was on was practically ALL essays. I should still graduate in 2011, so I'll be able to celebrate my graduation with my class, however I won't be able to walk at graduation. I was thinking I'd get a ticket from someone, show up with a graduation cap, and throw it at the end. It will be just like how it should be, were I still in Pensacola, minus the whole walking across the stage to get my diploma thing. Fine with me, as long as I finish!

So, that was the result of my boredom. I probably would have written more, but there's only so much you can write about nothing, so I'll just leave it at that. Bye.



*This is not true. I actually have a mountain of laundry (Mt. Dirty) in my bathroom, and I have to go to the library, but let's call those minor details.

Irritation

It's an emotion I know well. I don't usually get angry easily, but it takes far less to irritate me. Right now, however, I am beyond irritated at Blogger because it refuses to let me change my background to anything besides white. Of course, I could be wrong, and I'm the only one who can't see a background, but it's still maddeningly annoying. I'm beginning to think that all websites hate me, as I've been having a lot of problems with my internet lately. I could go get my computer looked at, because I happen to know for a fact that it's got more viruses than I get in a year (and judging by how often I'm sick, that's saying something!), but I'd rather just blame it on the websites themselves. I won't name any of the sites that have been giving me trouble, but I can name at least 3 off the top of my head. I'm not entirely sure why I'm writing any of this, other than the fact that I'm extremely bored and was on Blogger anyway, trying (that being the key word) to change the appearance.

Well, I really don't want to waste my time (haha I say "waste" like I have something better to do) writing nonsense about how I'm mad at a website, so I think I'll go make some pancakes now and try not to anyone up so I won't have to share. Good day, all, and remember: I haven't slept all night, so I can't be held responsible for any confusion you may experience while reading this post.

Writing

Lately, I've been doing a lot more writing, and it's gotten to the point where I really want to write, but have nothing to write about. In other words, I have some major writer's block. However, there are definitely a few up-sides to my need to write. For instance, those of you who actually read this (I assume no one) have probably noticed this post's lack of the ellipses and double-punctuation that is usually common in my writing. Well, whenever I spend time writing something, I always take care to use correct grammar and punctuation, so I get used to it, and eventually my casual writing becomes a lot more refined. Don't get too excited, though, because as soon as I stop writing for a bit, it will be back to my horribly teenage way of writing. Hey, at least I don't unnecessarily repeat letterrrs likeee thisss, or tlk n txt speak. Now that would certainly get annoying, would it not?

Anyway, I'm not here to write about how much some writing styles bug me. Au contraire, I actually wanted to ask (read as beg) for ideas on what to write. I just recently finished a story, and have nothing to do but sit around, since I've read all of my books, so really any suggestions are welcome. About that story, I actually was considering putting it on here, but since it appeals to a very particular audience, I think I'll hold off.

Well, that was really all I wanted to say, since nothing happens in my life that needs to be reported, so I'll stop boring you. If you feel the need to leave me a comment, have at it. I enjoy getting e-mails about them, even if I've only recieved about 5 since I started this blog back in 2008. Oh well; I'll live. Au revoir, mon amis.

New Layout

I changed my blog layout just now, as you've probably noticed...you like?? Anyway, I've been itching to write something for a while now, and I've gotten a few ideas from people, so I might post some stuff on here once I get around to finishing it...the only problem is that the story I'm working on at the moment requires me to think like a cynical teenage guy: something I am not...ah well, I'll think of something...

So really, I just felt the need to do something to this blog because I've been neglecting it for ages, so here you go...bye

Update: SORRY!!

WOW!! October...sorry?? then again, no one reads this, so really there's no point in apologizing...

so yeah, i guess i'll start by describing my Christmas...at least, i'll describe what i remember since that was in December and it's now March!! so umm...i got a bunch of clothes and a pillow...Danny got a Wii...i made butterbeer (yum!!)...i almost failed a few of my classes because i didn't work for a few weeks straight...i visited family in Vermont for the first time in about 4 years (wait, was it 4 or 6?? i'll say 4 because it makes me sound a bit better...not much, mind you)...oh yeah, and i decided i want to go to Middlebury College in Vermont!! ok the last one was based mainly on the fact that they have a quidditch team, but there are a few other perks too...such as the fact that it's close to my aunt/uncles/cousins, my immediate family won't be visiting every month like Nicki does to us, and students in the film program are given a chance in their junior year to visit either NYC or Hollywood and study film for 1-2 semesters...so THERE!!

anyways, back to everything that's happened since i last posted in October...my old foster sister contacted us and spend Thanksgiving at our house...i've gone even paler than normal, and it seems like it'll keep happening for a while...i dyed my hair blonde yet again...i decorated a tablecloth in honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday...here are some pictures:

A sneetch, the grinch, and the cover of "Oh, The Places You'll Go"

Vermont in the winter

Me, with blonde hair

ok, so now that i've bored you with all that nonsense, i'm gonna go...maybe i'll post something later on my trip to Vermont (i have a picture of some very creepy dolls my grandmother puts on display every Christmas that might amuse someone)...bye!!

Songs I'm Currently In Love With

yeah, so ive been listening to a lot of music lately, and i thought i'd share some of my favorite songs with you guys...theyre in no particular order, and NO they are NOT all Hawk Nelson songs!! haha ok, so heres my list:

• Lucy by Skillet
• Fireflies by Owl City
• Long Ago by Hawk Nelson
• Shaken by Hawk Nelson
• Yours To Hold by Skillet
• If My Heart Was A House by Owl City

so yeah, those are my favorite songs at the moment, but ive been listening to quite a few others...pretty much anything by any of the artists mentioned above...

i just thought i'd share, since my last post wasn't really about anything other than costumes...i remember when i used to post on here every day!! of course, that was when i first made this blog, so the circumstances are a bit different than they were back then...

oh, and by the way, i might try to find a way for my posts to stop being automatically uploaded to facebook, so if anyone actually reads those things, you might have to come to the site to read them...

but yeah, thats all i really had to say...bye
