Holy Cannoli

I can't believe it's may already, where did this school year go?! Prom is NEXT saturday. Early yes I know but still it's here. Work has been sucking lately and yesterday I didn't feel good so I went home. I think I need to find a new job the Old Navy is just not where it's at anymore

lameeeee

I'm so sad that tomorrow I have to walk the halls of UE High School. Number one I was enjoying my April Break WAY too much and don't want to go back. Number two it is my last, LAST, LASSSSSST marking period ever!!! Wow the phenomenon that is Graduation is rapidly approaching! Go UE Class of '08. You know you're all bad ass.

Juno.

I FINALLY saw the movie Juno and I absolutely loved it. Juno's sarcasm and personality is hilarious and Bleeker is just a dork. Movies like that make me laugh and I just love them so much. I love her attitude and her best friend. Juno is just superwoman. Wizard.

Sharpies

Just wanted to shout out to the Sharpie's showin' them some love. I just can't live without these fine point markers and their other family members. =] <3 you Sharpie!

Sunshineeeeee

Finally some sweet weather to help lighten the mood!! It is so nice out today, I'm glad we had a half day so we could enjoy it!!! I bought a lot of stuff today and am now EXTREMELY POOR. I wonder if there is a group for shopaholics because I need to learn how to stop haha. I visited Oswego yesterday and the weather was extremely nice then too. I LOVE IT THERE & CAN'T WAIT TO START SCHOOL. Ciao for now.

Speedy Gonzalez

Holy Cannoli this year has gone by so fast! I feel as if only yesterday it was the second week of school and all of us Exchange Kids (the coolest group ever) were counting down the days until our Italian Students arrived. Now it's like, almost 2 months until school is over and the Class of 2008 graduates. I don't even know what to say about that! I'm excited, nervous, scared, happy and sad all at once. It is very surreal to me. I almost wish I had just a little bit more time with everyone just so that I don't have to lose touch with some people and never talk to them again, I like this bond we have as Seniors, it is a special and unique one. I am ready to experience college, but I know that I am going to be very nostalgic about High School. Oswego* here I come!

*- Yes, I do know it snows a lot in Oswego, and that it will be very cold. Everyone needs to stop saying this to me because I am so very annoyed with constantly hearing it. You don't really think I was completely oblivious to the weather that surround my college of choice?

Woo!

I didn't really know what else to name this post since it is mostly just going to be random anyway. This post is also my 50th! I can't believe I posted that many things already, seriously what did I even talk about? Haha, anyway, mostly I'm a tiny bit jealous that the exchange students are leaving for the amazing Bolzano, Italy tomorrow. I'm only jealous that they get to be in the most amazing place on Earth tomorrow, but I am not the least bit jealous of who they are staying with because I am most confident that our exchange students are way more kick ass then their's will ever be =]. I miss them so much. Each day I think about how life would be if I never met them and it is always a little less bright. I am so thankful for having met them, I love each one of them with my whole heart.

Hooray for my Bed!

My new comforter is spectacularrrrrrrr! I've needed a new one for a few months now since my lovely pet, whom I speak ever so enticingly about, ripped my old one. It is BRIGHT pink with little white polka dots all over it and a light pink underside. Yes, it is indeed reversable and as comfortable as a cloud in heaven, or so one would imagine. I feel as if it now completes me. =]

Northern Downpour

If all our life is but a dream
Fantastic clothes and greed, then we should feed our jewelry to the sea

For diamonds do appear to be
Just like broken glass to me

And then she said she can’t believe
Genius only comes along in storms of fabled foreign tongues

Stripping eyes and flooded lungs
The northern downpour sends its love

Hey moon please forget to fall down
Hey moon don’t you go down
Sugar cane in the easy morning
What evades my one and lonely

The ink is running towards the page
Chasing off the days
Look back at both feet and that winding knee
I missed your skin when you were east
You clicked your heels and wished for me
Through playful lips made of yarn
That fragile Capricorn unraveled words like moths upon old scarves
I know the worlds a broken bone
But melt your headaches, call it home

Hey moon please forget to fall down
Hey moon don’t you go down
Sugar cane in the easy morning
What evades my one and lonely

Sugar cane in the easy morning
Weathervanes my one and only

Anne Marie and I

I've known my best friend Anne Marie since I was 2 and she was 3. No I didn't purposely rhyme that previous sentence. I remember vaguely one of the first time I met her or played with her or somethingto that effect. My Mom was outside talking to her Mom and she and I were in her driveway, it was sunny and we were doing something. The "something" part of that sentence is what I meant by vague. Years went by and we only grew closer and closer. We used to have forts and a tree house in the woods across the street and next to my house (which are no longer there), play in her rock pit (also gone), jump rope, hoola-hoop, color with rocks on other rocks, swing and make up weird things to make each other laugh so we could spit iced tea out of our mouths. We were cooky and I love it. I love how through all of this time her and I are still best friends. We hardly ever fight and if we do it can be resolved in seconds. We hang out and talk and I know she's always going to be there if I need her, and I will always to the same for her. Love you Anne Marie =].

Panic! At The Disco

As you may or may not know Panic! is one of my fav. bands. They had a new CD released today and I'm currently listening to it. My thoughts thus far: well, I don' t really know yet. I do like some of the songs but I need to listen to it like 50 times before I get used to the new sound.
Panic! Also decided it would be a bright idea to drop the exclamation point in their name. As a devoted fan, of which I would like to consider myself, I feel that this execuitive decision was very poorly made. That very thing separated them from many other bands and added to their off-beat yet very attractive style. It was part of who they were and I feel that even though they are deciding not to use it I will be the rebel and keep it around. They will always be my P!ATD.
I'm trying to send the CD to my sister via E-mail but the files are so big they take forever to upload. I want to go to a concert so bad, but I have no way to get there since she is gone and I miss her like a psychopath.

Greek

My favorite show right now on TV is hands down GREEK. It started in the summer and lived a short life, but is coming back tonight! Yes, it is about college and life on Greek Row and basically it is just awesome. Cappie is the hottest and my favorite character on the show. He's a bit out of his mind but he knows how to have fun and can be very philosophical. I suggest to the greater population of man kind to watch the season premier tonight. The End.

Freezing!

Think Easter: warm, bunnies, chickies, baskets, candy, bright colors etc. Reality check in Endicott: FREEZING WEATHER, dresses for kids that require layers of sweaters and coats, candy, hours to find clothes if you aren't 5 years old anymore and long family filled days. Okay so, the family part isn't so bad but does it really have to be 27 degrees? I remember Easter in Italy last year, and man that was delicious. It was warm, we grilled 5,000 different kinds of meat, had champagne, it was awesome. My sister is so lucky she can spend Easter in Italy where it is warm... Summer please come soon!

<3 Shopping

Seriously I love shopping. It was probably the brightest idea anyone ever had, who ever invented it that is. I get such a rush when I spend money, especially when it isn't mine haha. There is just a good feeling you get when you're trying on clothes and looking at a potentially new you. The sad thing is when you are all done and you find out you're not only poor but now have nothing to wear. It's like oh you have these new clothes but you wear them to your heart's content and then you feel like you have nothing else. Let's not ruin the shopping high though, I must go now and continue watching The Sound of Music!


I almost forgot! My favorite part is coming home with tons of bags, I love the way they sound. Weird I know, but whatever I like it.

Mommies!

I love my Mommy! She and I are extremely close, I talk to her about everything she doesn't have to ask me what is going on I'll just automatically tell her. We have a ton of fun together shopping, dealing with life etc. I don't know what I would do without her. I often think the things a mother does for her children go unnoticed and I'm here to say they don't but we, your children, are sorry we don't express our gratitude enough. I'm going to go out on a limb and say all children would like to thank their mothers for all that they have ever done for them =]. To all Mommies: Have a fantastic day!

*side note: yes, it is Mommy and not Mom most of the time because I'm still a little kid at heart.

Vernal Equinox

Today is the Vernal Equinox or for those of you who have completely blocked out 9th grade Earth Science, The First Day of Spring. Some first day huh? It's freezing! Anway all I want to encourage you to try before the day is over is balancing an egg. It is said that on the Autumnal Equinox (first day of fall) and the Vernal Equinox it is possible to get an egg to stand up straight because the Earth's axis is, well, equal or no longer at a tilt just for today, hence equinox or, well, equal. Good luck!

Have you ever thought about...

I was listening to Fergie's song Glamorous yesterday and I heard Luda rap something about lettuce. Now this got me to thinking... Have you ever thought about how many different ways people refer to money? I mean lettuce? Come on, you are not buying those clothes with a salad.
So I've thought of some others, feel free to add any or refer to other words that people have other funny words for.

Money: Lettuce, Cheese, Dough, Cash, Bucks, "Dat Money", Beans, Bread, Cabbage, Capital, Coin, Funds, Lucre, Gravy, Moolah, "Wad of Cash", Loot etc.

Money can also be used in speech i.e. Someone is shooting a paper wad into a waste basket and says "MONEY" meaning they made it in.
Fat Joe was also seen "makin' in rain" with money.

And isn't it ironic, don't ya think?

I'm on the phone with my BFFL (pronounced biffle) Christina and she's singing Ironic by Alanis Morisette. I love when she sings to me on the phone and though I can't upload a video of her singing it or put a recording of her up on here I will give you the lyrics and urge you to download this delicious song. Oh yeah, Happy St. Patrick's Day to all the Irish folk, I'm not Irish but you can kiss me anyway :P

An old man, turned 98
He won the lottery, and died the next day
It's a black fly in your chardonnay
It's a death row pardon, two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

[chorus]
It's like rain, on your wedding day
It's a free ride, when you've already paidIt's the good advice, that you just didn't take
And who would've thought? It figures

Mr. Play-It-Safe, was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase, and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life, to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought, "Well isn't this nice?"
And isn't it ironic? Don't you think?

[chorus]

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out
When you think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up in your face

A traffic jam, when you're already late
A "No smoking" sign, on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons, when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams, and then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic? Don't you think?
A little too ironic? Yeah I really do think

[chorus]

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny, funny way, of helping you out
Helping you out

Bleh

Mark Roberts if you still have your blog, I advise you not to read this post because I'm going to complain about cramps and you are not going to like it. I have the worst cramps in the history of the world this weekend. No joke, I've never had it this bad. I had to work Saturday and that was just like asking for death with the whole, I don't get a break and I must stand for 3 hours and 45 minutes. Let me tell you the medicine didn't last long AT ALL. Then when I went to bed last night, thinking oh I'm going to just be able to sleep this off because I started having lower back pain too I'm sure you ladies know what I'm talking about.
Let's cut to 4 AM. I wake up to... you guessed it... cramps. I HAVE NEVER WOKEN UP BECAUSE OF CRAMPS. I about rolled over and died. I had to get up, and go get meds. Like I wanted to really get up at that hour. Needless to say I found my mom had MIDOL in her room while I'm popping the CVS brand CRAP. Mom, thanks for holding out on me. Ugh, anyway cramps suck and I wish guys could get their period to seriously just know what its like for once.

The Incredibles

I watch The Incredibles every single time it is on TV. I love this movie, and I don't know why really. It's extremely funny but I mean I don't need to see it 1000 times to get it, it is pretty self explanatory haha. Anyway my fav. is Jack-Jack because he's just the cutest baby ever and kicks major ass at the end of the movie. I also love the little kid who sits on the trike outside of the Incredible household, he's hilarious.

Mr. Incredible: "Hey kid, WHAT are you waiting for?"
Kid on Trike: "I don't knowwwww, something amazing I guess!"

hahahahahhaahahaha <3 it.

oh yea, E is pretty kick ass too, she designs the supersuits.
