word of the day!



Todays word is misanthrope meaning: hater of humankind. If a misanthrope were a creature this is what it would look like. Just thought you should know.

can you hear me now? (broken phones and fire drills)

I think this week has been defined by bad mornings. Yes. Once again I had a bad morning. My alarm went off promptly at 5:45. 5:45. Ridiculous. As if 6 wasnt bad enough now that i got my hair cut my bangs look funky when i wake up so instead of taking a shower at night and waking up at 6. I get to take a shower at night, take a shower in the morning and wake up at 5:45..all while wasting water and potentially harming the environment!! Exciting right? Well i woke up exausted so i asked my mom if she could drive me and thank God: she said yes. So i woke up again at 6:40: too late to take a shower. I took my clothes out the the dryer: damp. And my pants were all twisted up. Bad news. So basically I just pulled a random outfit out of my closet. It was definitely a bum day. My hair looked terrible. It was just a bad hair/outfit day. Well I also woke up remembering that yet again my phone stopped charging. After 4 days the stupid charge bar on my phone stopped working. I've had several hate messages written and rewritten in my head to verizon in the past few weeks. So I headed to school. I spent my first period study hall holding the charger in my phone in a certain postion so it could charge. Of course the three bars i gained while doing this charging only lasted for about a half hour..and went back down to one. Just my luck. Good news though!! *excitement* I dont have to hand in my pig paper untill tuesday! YES!!! I did however complete two more pages of my paper. Now i have three. Yay me. Only nine more to go. So the most bizzare thing happend after school. I was at my locker putting my books in the bag..and the fire alarm goes off. To this hour I still have no idea why it went off but if it was a drill im seriously going to shoot someone. Today it was about 1 degree out. Ridiculously cold. Everyone was wearing coats and gloves. I could only find one glove unfortunatly. Anyway. The fire alarm goes off..and i have a decision to make. Which way would I rather die? Would I rather freeze to death or burn to death in a school I have been going to for practically my life? It's a toss up but i decide to venture out into the snow following all of the other half frozen students. Finally after ten ridicoulous minutes we got to go inside. I cant figure out what happend...but it was definitely not a highlight of my day. So I still have my learners permit so one of my privelleged friends with a lisence said she could bring me home. We threw our stuff in the car and proceeded to follow our other friend to the pizzaria. We sat down and ate our buffalo chicken wing pizza. (Best pizza ever!!! and the slices are pretty much like a whole pizza)...then she realized she left her keys locked in the car. Yet again..my life keeps getting better and better. Thankfully our other friend had a car and she drove us home. My stuff was delievered to me shortly. I just got back from verizon. I got my chocolate 2 replaced with a chocolate 3. Hopefully this one will last more then a week. It was then I realized if it werent for the reoccuring bad moments in my life what would i blog about? No idea.

stupid moments. make good stories.

So today after school I had to work the "concession stand" for the basketball games. Walking into the school i experienced one of the stupider moments..in my life. I was walking in with my sister and snow was blowing everywhere and well..i slipped and fell flat on my back. Upon getting up i turn and see the varsity guys van sitting right there. I'm getting ready for the comments tommorow. Theres gonna be alot. However if i didnt have clumsy moments like this one everyday i probably wouldnt laugh as much..and neither would others around me. So..yay for stupid moments and knowing how to laugh at yourself.

word of the day!

Yay!! It's time for the word of the day! (clapping) Todays word is weisenheimer. Of course the first thing that came to my mind when i saw this word: a hot dog. Bratwurst, frankfurter, weisenhemier. totally fits. However the actual meaning is: an upstart who makes conceited, sardonic, insolent comments [syn: wise guy]. Exciting right?

wake up and smell the taquitos?

So this morning..yet again was a bad morning. Have you ever heard the song bad day? The guys talking about having a bad day yet the song is really upbeat and it makes you feel good. Weird. I've never really understood. This morning as i was walking out the door remembered that i did not have my pig paper notes and the book i was taking notes out of. I ran up the stairs as fast as i could and began to frantically search for the notes. However I did not find them. In the effort to make the bus I forgot my coffee right inside the door. No coffee: bad morning. I did however find a bottle of suny d in my purse. My purse is full of wonders. Its one of those huge black purses that old ladies carry around and i could probably take someone out with it. So while on the bus to the high school where i transfer to take me to my actual school, (Yes, I am a transfer kid..and i it.), I noticed a sign on the seven eleven. 2 Supreme Omelet taquitos and coffee only $1.99! What the heck is a supreme omelet taquito? I know what a supreme omelet is..the supreme in the omelet is a little fuzzy..but i get the general idea. I know what a taquito is. I have been to Mexico. The frozen ones by that Jose guy are really good. However put the two together and I have no idea. Taquitos for breakfast. Interesting. When i transfer at the high school I like to look at what people are wearing. It's entertaining. There's this guy who wears flip flops every day. I heard its supposed to be 5 degrees out today..translation: take a trip to payless..and get some real shoes. This guy has also been with the same for 2 years. Its cute. Call me a stalker..I dont care. This morning i found myself wondering what i would look like in a do rag. Im not even sure how to spell that but i know i would probably look ridiculous. Another guy had on one of those huge jacket/hoodie things with this metallic flower pattern on it. It was strange. It looked like someone tore some material off a drap to make the jacket with. My stomach just rumbled. Mabye its time for some good morning taquitos?

sleeping in my pitch black skies

Sleeping in my pitch black skies
by me

Verse 1

As I cry myself to sleep
pray to God my soul to keep
day dreaming through the night
shed more tears to make it right
just one more somber night with you
i promise i will make it through

Chorus

Been to heaven
been to hell
been in between
with you as well
pitch black skies
no sign of day
feel my cold heart burn away
and yes it kills
but your keeping me here
comatose
as i sleep within my fears

Verse 2

as i lay awake in bed
i close my eyes
bow my head
praying for some sanity
never want to be set free
one more somber night with you
i promise i will make it through

chorus

bridge/ending

and i know you hate what ive done
and i know i hate what ive become
but just take my hand
come with me
close your eyes
count to 3
one less night
one more day
the sun is finally here....to stay

do it again

"Do it again"
by me

Verse 1

Go ahead rip my heart out
make me wear it on my sleeve
you know who I'm thinking about
so youd better not leave
you cut me like a knife
make me bleed for you
pool of crimson heartache
heres what you put me through

Chorus

Put me through heartache
put me through pain
make me shed tears
do it again
put me through anger
put me through strife
put me through danger
this is my life

verse 2

go ahead rip my soul out
dont need it no more
cuz all you do is hurt me
and you know who its for
my soul cut open
make me bleed for you
pool of crimson heartahce
heres what you put me through

Chorus

bridge/ending
I sacrifice myself for you every day
cut wide open heres what i have to say
you wernt worth the pain
every day i feel the same
crying tears of blood
flowing scarlet flood
take one last look
see what youve done

CREEPY. yeah. who wants to fall asleep with that thought in their mind? apparently baby bird. on that happy note. sweet dreams bloggers!

Happy birthday to Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick

Today it is the Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick's birthday. Congratulations. Today to celebrate I..well i did absolutly nothing to celebrate because i didnt even know that it was DFoB (Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick)'s birthday. It wasn't a great day. Actually today had a pretty bad beginning. I had a contact fiasco and ended up having to wear my glasses. Crooked glasses. Although i didn't even know they were crooked untill i peered into my locker mirror and noticed that one eye seemed to be higher then the other. It was just the glasses. The bus ride was uneventful. Only two boys walked in and both uttered the dreaded question to two random girls. "Can i sit with you?". Do you really want to start your morning sitting next to a boy who was stupid enough not to notice the empty seat only a foot or two away from where you are sitting? Probably not. First period study hall has to be my favorite class. I never do anything but its always good to start out the day with a laugh. The highlights of the day include stomping on balloons, a shower and some starbucks coffee "made in the comfort of my own home" (the words in quotations are said with an exuberant tone of voice and a large smile.) The downers of the day can be summed up in one word: pig. In "senior high-school" language this word means doom and/or participation in government. Oh yes. It's that time of year and i am only days away from the due date of a dreaded 12 page paper. My word document still reads: (blank). Maybe i shouldnt be blogging?...on the contrary perhaps if i ramble on enought i will be inspired to start. Probably not. But good try. I am known for procrastination. If you open a webster's dictionary my picture is featured next to the word. Just kidding. Please don't go find a dictionary and open it hoping to dazzle your friends with the fact that you know someone in the dictionary. It won't work. Sorry. Happy birthday DFoB!

word of the day.

I have decided that the word of the day is hegemony. My first guess to the definition: a dying hedgehog. However hegemony actually means leadership or predominant influence exercised by one nation over others, as in a confederation; and it is a noun. You learn something new everyday. :)

seventeen forever.

If "we can get away with this tonight" because i wont be seventeen forever then what happens when i turn eighteen??

Peanut butter and jelly

I never thought I'd love a writer. In fact I never thought I'd date a writer. Actually every single boy I've dated has claimed to be a writer. A few have written sappy, generic poetry attempting to come across as a hopeless romantic. Others have simply claimed to be writers because they could text, which, I'm sure every person between the ages of 8 and 40 are capable of doing. Thse things do not make someone a writer. The elements of honestly and the pure ability to make the words flow out on paper is what makes someone a writer. The person I love is a true writer. I too am a writer as this piece is utterly honest and hopefully the words it contains don't resemble nails scratching on the chalkboard. But how strange: Two writers. The world always says opposites attract. But the question is, do they always stay attracted. People say, "Like peanut butter and jelly." But honestly are peanut butter and jelly really opposites? I say. Not really. Peanuts are squashed, grapes are squashed. They are much alike when put together. However combinations such as peanut butter and jelly sandwitches and chicken noodle soup? The two are opposites in the food family yet it can be said that together they attract certain people. Yes. There are are people out there who eat these things together and actually enjoy the taste. But does it work for everyone one? Absolutly not. So opposites do attract yes. But the taste may not last for everyone. I am one of the many who has found a similar personality to be the attracting point. We are like peanut butter and jelly, however we are not opposites. We are writers. And just like a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich is to a kindergardner, we are just about as perfect as it gets.

Ramshackled?

Why ramshackled? Well honestly ramshackled is just a really fun word. For some reason im thinking of an invasion of rams in the love shack. A little wierd. According to my handy dandy online thesaurus ramshackled means: falling apart, in poor condition. Now you may ask, "Why would someone want the title of their blog to mean falling apart?" The answer to this question: there is none. However dictionary.com describes it as: looslely made or held together. Which is pretty much what a blog is. Yes i did just put that together in my mind. I'm not a genuis. My favorite of the synonyms is: jerry-built. Absolutly no idea. Apparently it originates from jerry. Wow. Thanks theasaurus.com.
