So, Jesus Hates Me

Anyone who knows me well enough should remember I was in a car accident a while ago. It took me a while to not be shaken up about it, and I still hesitate when I turn (I always see the crash in my head).

But I got a new car (used, but new to me) that I’ve had for a couple months and every things fine. Well today I’m driving to my orientation for my new job at Applebee’s. Some damn woman (I won’t say more about her or I’d sound racist) runs a red light. I slam on my brakes (luckely I’m only oing about 35) but I still slam right into the side of her car.

The woman starts freaking out and I can see her yelling at me. But I’m like “<i>wtf, my light was green</i>.” So I have to call 911 and fill out the police reports and the bitch says that I’m the one who ran the light. I don’t know if there was a trffic camera on that light or not but the cop said our insurance companies will have to deal with it in court.

Then I have to call Applebee’s and tell them I can’t come today, and the manager says they can reschedule but I tell her my car is totalled so I won’t have any way to get there and don’t know when I’ll have another car. I call my dad and tell him what happened, my friend jackie, and my boyfirend Elliot. Everyone is freaking out and I have to keep saying I’m okay. My knee is bruised but I’m ok.

I had to get a ride back to my dorm in a cop car because everyone I know up here is either out of town or working. Jeeze, things just things to keep getting worse for me. I hope this whole thing works itself out so the woman will have to pay for a new car. But I’m going to be so freaked out about driving from now on because <u>every time</u> I drive I crash. (Ok, maybe I’m overexagerating, but still.) Jeeze, I’m glad there’s no school tomorrow so I can just sleep all day.

I’m Going To Die!

(Well first off, I’m going to continue using this blog as an outlet to get things off my chest.)

No, seriously. I have just found out that one of my best friends, the person that I spent almost all of my time with last year, is not comming back to UK this year. What am I going to do? She was my support, I was able to make it through all the tough times because I could hang out and relax with her. We did our homework together and ate together and now…

This is a lot to handle so suddenly. And it’s what happended to me last year when the girl I was suppose to room with decided not to go to UK. Those first couple of weeks I was so alone and miserable all  the time. And now it’ll be like that again. Maybe I’m taking it too far, I don’t know. But I just felt like I needed to get that all out.

 To that person, I’m not mad at you. I can certainly understand, it’s a but load of money and I couldn’t py it if I hadn’t worked all through high school and constantly durring the summer. I still love you and hope to still see you a bunch.

Thank You and Goodbye

  I’m afraid that I just don’t have the time to take care of this blog anymore, it’s a shame but oh well. I’m so busy with school, my friends, and my job that I just don’t get around to writing anything anymore. But I don’t that anyone even reads this except my friends anyway so I’m sure it’s no big dissapoinment. I may delete this blog all together in the near future. Thank you all, and goodbye.

Lot’s To Say

  I haven’t posted in like a month, this is crazy. My senior year has been so busy I just don’t have the time to post as frequently as I used to. This is going to be a long post so I’ll just warn you of that in the begining. Oh, just so you know, right now I’m in love with that song ‘Photograph’ by Nickleback. Thought I’d share that with you. It’s a great song, go check it out.

  Where should I start. Hmm… Spirit Week would probably be the best place. About 2 weeks ago we had Spirit Week, which is the week leading up to Homecoming. What that basically means is that for a week everyone has a logical excuse to dress up in weird random costumes. It’s always a blast, some people go all out for. One day I was a pirate (arrg), then I was a hippie (peace and love), Christina and I were twins one day (I’m the pretty twin), and I got to wear a super awesome toga (baby blue of course). A few of my friends did some really crazy stuff. A couple of the guys got body wax’s for toga day (ouch!). Two other guys dressed up as Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen (rather creepy). It was a great week, I’m put up some pictures of it and you’ll see what I mean.

  The Homecoming game was good. We beat the other school bad, but that’s exspected at a Homecoming game. Afterwards my friends and I thought ‘There’s no way we’re going to that gay/lame Homecoming Dance.’ So we cruised around town and hung out at Walmart for a while (b/c that’s the only place in this stupid little town that’s open that late.) That was also the night when ‘smexy‘ became a prominant word in my vocabulary. Yeah that night was super great and extremely smexy (like me).

  My friend elliot’s dad makes a lot of independent films. They aren’t those crappy kind that your thinking of, they are really good. The latest one was called “Dancing in the Moonlight” and it was an off-beat romantic comedy about a werewolf. That sounds wierd but believe me it was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. So, what does this have to do with anything? Friday night Elliot tells me that the movie is premiring at one of the local theaters at midnight. Of course I had to go, there was no way that I was going to miss it. But Saturday morning all my friends were taking the ACT’s and none of them could go. (I got a 30 on the ACT and I don’t need to take it again like those losers. JK.) I knew Elliot was going to be there b/c it was his dad’s movies but he was the only one.

  So I get off work late Friday night and then around 11:40 I leave for the theater. Here I am, a small girl in her small car, driving around town late at night. It was cold and foggy and needless to say I was a little creeped out. I was so sure that I would get there and no one else would be there b/c Elliot had just played some horrible trick on me. But no, I get there and there’s a rather large crowd and everyone seems really excited about the movie. So everything worked out, though I wish some more of my friends could have gone. I seriously need some more friends who just don’t care and will hang out with me really late at night like that. But whatever, the movie was super awesome, smexy even. I absolutely loved the soundtrack.

  Oh, this reminds me. I have a long list of houses that I need to roll. I really need to do that some time soon. It will be really fun if all my friends that said they would go with me do. Can you believe it, I have one friend who has never rolled a house before? Seriously, a senior in high school who hasn’t T.P.’ed a house. It’s sad, she definetely has to go with us. Hmm… you know all this sounds kind of bad now that I look at it. But it’s not as bad as you think it is, trust me. Around here is sort of a tradition to roll your friends houses. We all love to pull pranks on each other like that.

  Have I written enough yet? I think I’ve written too much actually. Then I guess I’ll stop rambling now. I don’t want to completely bore you to death. Huh, I don’t anyone will even read this whole post so it doesn’t even matter. Ha, yeah. That’s all, I’ll try to have a shorter interval between my next posts. Bye. Go Roll Some Houses, My Readers!

$#&*@*#%!!!

  Well I gues the title about covers it. So I’m leaving school Monday, trying to get home so I can have a little time to rest before I go to work. I get in my car, put on my seat belt, turn up the music, and back out of my spot. My car is completely out of the spot and stationary. I reach down to put it in drive, look up, and-BAM! A big, red Bravada backs right into the front passenger side of my poor little Nisan Sentra. I’m like ‘WTF?’ Then this tiny little goth chick jumps out of her gigantic SUV and was like “OMG, I didn’t even see you there!” And I was thinking ‘Yeah well you obviously didn’t look in your rearview mirros, because even though you car is 3 times the size of mine and a far larger vehicle than any person needs, you still should have seen me there.

  So the police officer posted at our school (who is a really sweet old guy) comes over and fills out the accident report. He asked me what happened and I told him. Then he asked her what happened and she says “Oh, we both just backed up at the same time and ran into each other.” That made me rather angrey because it was obviously her fault and she was trying to spread some of the guilt onto me. But he checked out the damage on our cars and on the accident report says that it was her fault so whatever.

  Oh, and let’s talk about the damage while we’re at it. Her gigantic monster mobile gets a bit scratched up on the bumper. My poor little baby now has a huge dent in the front of the passenger side door and the hood. I mean it’s a seriously big dent. My dad check it out and he was said there was no way he could fix it himself. Then today on my way to school it was making this wierd noise and I kept thinking it was going to explode or something. It turned out the the tire was just rubbing against this little peice of plastic which my dad popped back into place so that’s no big deal.

  I guess the positive side to this is that it wasn’t my fault and her insurance will have to pay for it. Also, my mom said that while it was in the shop we could maybe get it a new paint job. Yay! My poor car’s paint is badly faded and rather… splotchy. It would be nice to have it painted one solid, cool color. Green maybe! But, oh well. I guess I’ve discussed it enough now. It was the only thing that any one in my second period could talk about. Andrea told me “I’m would throw down for you if you want to fight her.” I graciously declined the offer but it’s goos to know that some people have my back. Okay, that’s all. Go drive safely, My Readers!

Arrrggg!!!

  I have to tell you about what may have been the funniest thing that I have ever seen/heard. It was in 4th period, because that’s where we do all the fun stuff. We were put in groups of 2 and had to do these demonstrative speeches (a speech explaining how to do something). Most people did like ‘How to make cookies’ or ‘How to build a bird house’ or something like that. In other words, most of them were lame and borring. The speech that Brittney and I did was ‘How to fight dirty’. It was funny to us and our friends because it contained a few inside jokes but no one else really seemed to get it. Whatever, it was intelligent humor and they’re all dumb. Anyway, this story is not about my speech.

  Two of my friends gave a speech intitled ‘How to make a pirate, for dummies’. One of the guys was John, but his part wasn’t funny because he’s gay. Not politically correct gay, just everyone hates you and wishes you would die gay. (Laughs with anyone who gets that reference.) But Elliot was also in the group. For those of you who don’t know Elliot I will have to describe him so you can get a mental image, which you may need to see the humor in this. Elliot is one of those tall (about 6 feet), lanky guys. He has this shaggy hair that sticks out all over the place. In general, he just looks like a big dork (which he is). He’s one of those kids that is really quiet in class and most people think he’s shy. But if you know him, then you know that he is one of the funniest people ever. But, I digress.

  So imagine this tall, geeky looking guy who you always thought was a shy kid. And he starts pacing back and forth across the room, his hand on his chin with that ‘I’m concretrating’ look on his face. Then he begins to tell you how to make a pirate. Everything: the conception of the pirate, training him, educating him, and getting him a job. When he finishes the speech he stops pacing, turns toward the class, and with a completely straight face and a stern voice he loudly says “Arrggg” and goes back to his seat. Now, I don’t know if you can get the full effect of the humor without being there and actually knowing Elliot, but you should still find this rather ammussing. Or maybe not, I don’t know. But it was one of the funniest things I have ever seen/heard. Christina and I were laughing so hard. I nearly fell out of my chair. I seriously thought something inside of me was going to burst if I did not stop laughing so hard.

  So anyway, that was extreemely funny and I just thought I would share it even though most people probably won’t find it interesting. Of course, afterwards we got into the age old debate of ‘Pirates vs. Ninjas’, but that’s a completely different story. So remember, September 19th is National Talk Like A Pirate Day (Seriously, I couldn’t make that up. Look. It’s true.) Be sure and mark that on your calander (incase it’s not already on there). Now comment you landlubbers or I’ll make you walk the plank. (Joking, I don’t actaully have a plank.) Arrg to you, My Readers!

Whateva’

  Uhh… I don’t have mcuh to say so whatever… let me think. I just thought I should update I don’t really have any breaking news or anything. Well, first off I would like to say that I love my fourth period. It’s great! We don’t really do much, I hang around and joke with a few of my friends (I think we really annoy the teacher). But it’s English class and I’m a senior so you know what that means, yep, portfolios. Oh, how I hate portfolios with a fiery passion. It’s not that I don’t like writting, that I enjoy, but I don’t like doing in on demand. Actually, I can’t do it on demand. I can’t have a teacher tell me, “Write an interesting creative piece of work by Tuesday morning.” That’s not how it works. Oh well, I’m sure I will manage to pull something together that will get me a proficient. But, aside from the whole portfolio thing, I love 4th period. The teacher is a ton of fun too. Christina *winks at Christina* knows what I’m talking about. Oh, good times. Alright, that’s about all I have to say for now. I’ll try to post again sooner or later. Peace out My Readers!

Look –>

  If you scroll down a little bit and look on the right side of the page you will see that I have added a new album called AMSTEMM. It’s full of pics from from stay at UK. I think the one with the pizza is my favorite, look at the pics and you’ll see what I mean. So, there you go. You can all go look and be happy.

  Last night Christina and I went to this concert at Jitters and it was great. The band was Pivitplex (christian rock group) and they are really good. It was suppossed to start right after the PC/Somerset football game so we expected them to start playing about 10 or 11pm. That’s not what happened. I didn’t go to the game and I don’t know if it got delayed because of the rain or went into triple-over-time or what but something must have happened. The band didn’t even start until about 12:30. I was hyped up on coffee but I was still tired and it wasn’t over until like 2:30 am. I bought this cute Pivitplex wrist band, because I’m all about the wrist bands. Christina got one too, she also got a shirt. We also got free posters with the purchase so we got the guys to sign them for us. They seem like really nice guys. I didn’t get home until about 3am but it was totally worth it and my parents didn’t care anyway.

  On another note, it’s been rainy all week. But every day when I would go outside for lunch it would have stopped raining and got all sunny again. I was so sad about that. But then on Friday we got to eat outside in the rain. I was so happy! Most of the people who normally sit out there stayed inside so all of the tables were free. We picked a good one with an umbrella but we still got wet. John had his hat with him and we used it to wipe of the seats so our butts wouldn’t get too wet. There were only 5 of us at first but then we persuaded one of the other guys to come out and join us. The kids inside were looking at us (the wall is made of glass, like one big window so you can see outside from the inside) like we were insane, which we probably are. It was awesome. It wasb’t raining too hard, it was like a soft mist and it was very refreshing. Oh, I can tell this is going to be a great year. Go eat in the rain My Readers!

Because

  Sometimes I look back at the terrible things that I have done and the people that I have hurt and I just hate myself. Monday was one of those days where I was absorbed in a pool of my own self loathing. Tuesday I felt much better but I’m still not in the best mood. Hopefully I will have a good wednesday.

  Be kind to yourselves My Readers.

Update

  First off I want to update on my grandfather’s condition. He got worse for a little while. The skin on his neck was burnt and began to swell and he couldn’t breath. They put him into an induced coma and rushed him down to some special burn center in Tennessee. They had to do surgey on him Tuesday, they did a skin graft on his legs. As of now all of his vitals are stable and he’s doing alright. They are going to keep him out of it for about 2 weeks so he doesn’t have to deal with the pain. They say that its the 4th and 5th days after a burn that you have to worry about, thats when stuff starts to give out and get infected. If he makes it to the weekend then he will probably be fine. I thank all of you for your prayers, it means a lot to me. Thank you so much.

  So, lets try not to dwell on the sad news. I’m sure I can think of something possitive to post. As of now I have sat outside every day and I found out that 2 of my friends, John and Elliot, made a pact to sit outside everyday so they will be out there with me in the bad weather. It has been really hot during the days and then it rains at night. I wish it would rain during the daa, it would cool things off and I could eat my lunch in the rain. I think I would enjoy that. Tomorrow we are having our pictures taken at school. I guess I have to get up early and do something with my hair. I should make sure I look good, this is the last school picture I’ll ever take. Oh, that sounds wierd. Speaking of pictures, I finally finished that roll of film that was in my camera. I dropped it off to get developed today so I’ll have the pictures tomorrow. I’m so excited, I can’t wait to see how they turn out. I’m not really sure what all is on that roll of film. There are some pictures from AMSTEMM and some I took over the summer and probably some wierd random stuff. I’ll be sure to put some of them on the site some time. I guess that’s it. Go take some pictures My Readers!
