Oscars were lovely yesterday. I watched E! from 11-7. Crazy, lol. Then went over to ABC, and it finally started at 7:30. I liked it. I think Chris Rock did a very good job. No one really did anything 'bad'. It was moving at times, and I was waiting for a mention of Lord of the Rings, finally happened with one of the sound or visual fx ones. I would have said, I'd like to thank New Zealand. lol. Yesterday, I was in soo much pain and soo stiff from running. Omg. I could barely move. Whenever I had to put out the dog, I had to fall to ground because I couldn't bend my knees. And it killed me because she kept going in and out all day! I felt better today though, but going up and down the stairs did hurt a wee bit. After school I went to the bank for some money and then went to the mall to finish up my Youth Leg shopping. I got these shoes in fuchsia. And they were 29.99. whoot. Then I couldn't find any matching jewelry, so I went over to the Icing and settled for a very nice necklace and earrings. Then I went over to Hollister to see if I could find some shirts. I had some money, and I thought, hey I haven't bought regular every day clothes in a while, I'll do that. I ended up getting two shirts. This one and this one because it was on sale and it was different in style and color for me. After this I left the mall and got a snack at McDonalds and came home. I ate, showed my clothes to mom, and did some computer things, and then ate dinner and now here I am! Updated scanned too yesterday. And apparently my fear for my bandwidth didn't really happen, as it is still up and I have used 1102.38 Megabytes this month! lol. Oh, and I'm thinking about doing some more movie bidness. Calling for extras in All the King's Men down here. Seriously considering. Though, this one seems to be a different set up. Where as last time you called the people and reserved a spot, and this go around, you have to send a email with a picture and some info. But, I can't do it because of that convention this week, so should I do it, I'll send an email when I get back. *excited* 10:08PM

Ran the 5K in the Race for the Cure today. Had to get there way early because of my mom, around 6, she was volunteering, and I did a little bit. Here and there really. And it was sooo cold, but finally the race started around 8:30 and I had met up with Jamie a little bit earlier. We did pretty well. Better then I expected. During our first mile this guy comes up next to Jamie, I look over, yell OMG! and guess who it was, my soccer coach. Had no idea he was going to be there, so that was really cool. We finished our first in about 9 minutes, our 2nd around 21 minutes, and we finished at about 36. Not bad, about the usual really. But I think I could have done better if I was alone. It was good though, nice bonding, lol. So Jamie left, and I met up with mom and we walked around, got some food, and I tried to find my coach, but couldn't. So we stood around and hoped that we would win a door prize. Nope, didn't happen. :( Lots of numbers being called because people had left, but not me. When we left we went to Calendars and this guy, very cute too, lol, seated us with this Australian accent. And then he asked us what we would like to drink in his regular voice and asked how he sounded. I thought it was real. Pretty nifty. And he told my mom that he is promoting Arthritis Race coming up at the end of April. So now I'm really tempted to go to that to see if I can see him again. He was very nice, and wouldn't you just know, I didn't learn his name. That always happens! When I got home I watched Ray to be ready for the Oscars tomorrow and then watched Anchorman. Heh, funny stuff. I loved all the 1970's technical ish bits to it. Feels weird that I'm not wishing that LotR will win tomorrow night. 8:52PM

I think may be it for bandwidth. So bye if it is so. Be back in March. Been cleaning the house for money lately, I need money for Friday when I go to the mall to look for clothes for my Youth Leg convention. We need like very nice / suitish type clothes, and then I need a cocktail dress and maybe something else. And of course I don't have it, so I need to go shopping yet again. And the cleaning is nice, breath better and all. There really isn't anything else right now. Been raining a lot. Rain is cool. Yesterday, I turned in my soccer uniforms and warmups. Will miss them, very comfortable. But, we got a t-shirt in return. I have soo many shirts from school. I think I'll go count. lol, 11+ shirts. I'm going to go watch my taped Project Runway finale. Whoot! Although, I know who won, heh. 9:38PM

If you visiters were here a year ago, you may remember me talking about a show on Discovery Health, Birth Day Live. Last year they had Woman's Hospital featured and they are doing it again. So plugs to that again. 9:09PM

(later I've decided to take a chance and see what happens with the situation. If the site is unavailable at one point, bandwidth is the cause. 9:58P
Quick update for now. Been watching movies all day today, basically the Indiana Jones series that was on tv today. Hadn't seem them all before until today. Good stuff. I like Harrison Ford. Feeling very blah today. I do have some pictures from the ring ceremony but I'm not sure which ones I will be posting, and whether they will go up now or in 10 days or so. Bandwidth is getting real slim right now. So I'm going to take down the Bacchus pictures until March 1. 9:41PM

I got my class ring today!! Ah it's soo pretty. I can't help but keep looking at it. It was a very good day: First of all, we only had 2 classes today, 1st and 2nd hour. Then we went to the auditorium to practice. We got to our chairs and sat down. We ran through the fron row and everything was fine. Went through the names of everyone, making sure they were being said correctly. Then we got to walk around and look at the rings. Then around 11 the ceremony started. First row went fine, but then we got to Bryan who had his younger brother and sister give him the ring, and then the seating arrangement started getting all wrong. And then Ryan had to younger brothers too and by now people didn't know where to go! It was hilarious! And then I go get my ring from Kristin and we walk to the front and take a picture, and we had a plan so we decided to stick with it, so we walked in front on one side, but those seats in the plan weren't open, so I'm like turn around and let's go this way. So we ended up where I was sitting earlier. Wow, so funny. That made it fun. And we had good speeches too. Afterwards we were able to have the rest of the day off. My family and Kristin, Amber and her mom, Jennifer and her mom and her moms friend, Divya and her mom and moms friend, and Matt and his brother Adam and his mom all went to this restaurant. Took a while for us to be seated and we were all spread apart, but it was fine. I was all excited and talkative before and during the ring ceremony, but afterwards, it all left so I was all quiet, and felt bad for it. Oh well. Can't really help it. So lunch was good, we were there for a long time. Got home around 2:30 and was very tired. So I watched some tv in the kitchen and fell asleep on two of the kitchen table chairs, lol. Woke up an hour later, had some food and watched more tv. That's it! I keep looking at my ring and admiring it, lol. I scanned some pictures of it: [1] [2] [3]. It has my birthstone, sapphire colorness, which also happened to be the school color stone so it worked out, and diamond ish type stones on the sides. 20 on one side and 06 on the other. And around the blue stone it says Runnels High. On the inside of the ring band it has my signature. Pretty. And it fits which is awesome, because a lot of peoples don't fit. 10:35PM

I meant to blog more these past few days, but I just didn't get around to it. Today I took the ACT at LSU. It went pretty well. This go around I did the plus writing section, where you write an essay. It was a good topic so I think it went well. About 2 different teaching habits, either classwork or disscussion. Choose one you like or something else, explain, etc. Afterwards I went with Jamie and Amber to Wendy's. Then had to come home for the dog. She is still sick, but I think she is finally getting better. Eh, her food is sooo nasty. Smells soo bad. I may have already said this, but yuck!! After a while I got in the shower and then left to go find some shirt or outfit for our ring ceremony Friday. No such luck today. So I came home and ate dinner and been watchign the dog and tv. The layout guy is from the tv show Lost, and some movies, fatal attraction maybe? Something like that. 9:38PM

No school for a week! YES Thank you Mardi Gras! Whoot! Today was good, wore some fabulous new shoes today, but my feet were hurting again, lol. I just keep on doing it though. Anyway! So I brought a king cake to school for Chemistry. It was very very yummy. Then we watched some Napolean Dynamite in American History. I still haven't seen that movie, I'm like the only one left on earth apparently. Had a math test again today. It was scary. It was 3 pages, 3 questions, and I only knew 1. ...that's not good. So I tried me hardest, mhmm. Spanish, had a test in there. I asked a question to the teacher, and she told me an answer, booyah! lol. Wasn't expecting that. Came home, and did nothing! But, then I went out to pick up Amber and went to school for the final guys basketball game. It was good, and we won!!! 32-30. Really close game, intense. I screamed a lot, lol. So now we are champions. Of something. lol. Then I came home and ate some dinner. And now here I am. oo I want a new layout badly. 10:12PM

I had nothing to do when I got home from school today. It was crazy! I felt like I was missing something, or I forgot a practice or something. Crazy. Let's see what happened. oo, had my math test today. That was a beast, but oddly enough I finished way early before everyone else, so I was thinking, oh crap, must have messed something up, or didn't see a page *paranoid* We had spirit day for soccer during lunch, today and yesterday. Basically we get food from someplace other then what is going on that day. Not that exciting, but still nice to have. It was jambalaya, 3rd time to have it this week, tired of it right now. After school I got some gas and then came home. And that's it. Trying to get my computer back in order. Boring, but hey! 8:48PM

I'm alive and back!! Oh man! Sooo sorry for not posting in forever! I've just been soo busy and my computer has been dead! Soccer finished up yesterday. We had our last games on last Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and last night. One was a tie, maybe a win in there, and the rest, we lost. But last night, it was fun even though it was maybe aroun 40ish degrees and raining the whole time. The field was a mess and I was soaked and cold the whole time. It was good though. We had a pep rally on Thursday, not really all the exciting, but we ran out of time, so school ended. But yet they kept going and going and going! I wanted to go home! So dad fixed my computer, somehow, not sure really. But, all my things aren't on yet, so I'm still restricted. Least I can blog. Heh, sorry for not mentioning this sooner. So Bacchus is coming this Sunday. I wanted to go to the parade since Sean Astin is the king and Elijah will be back! It's in New Orleans, an hour away from me. So why not! So around New Years my family and I were planning on staying at a hotel for the weekend, but I decided against it. So maybe two weeks later my dad says, we're not going to the parade where we would have to fight the crowd, wait a long time, no bathrooms, slim chance on having a good spot to see the guys and they may be facing away from us, etc. So instead, I've got tickets to the brunch before the parade so instead of being say 10-15 ft away from them, you can be like 2 ft. ..... OMG!!! AWESOME! So I am excited! I have to wear something nice, not sure yet really. And, Forever-Veiled.net is a year old today!!! Happy Birthday! So that's that! 4:41PM
