Hello! I forgot how much I liked some of my wallpapers! Anyway, I did two James Blunt ones. A black and white, which has 2 versions and a color one. I like the color one more. The 2nd version of the black and white has a hint of purple/blue in it. For the 1024x768 screen: [B&W] [B&W w/ p/b] [color] For the 800x600 screen: [B&W] [B&W w/ p/b] [color] Yay. Okay good job to me! I actually did it! I found pictures for the Alan Webb one, so I'll try to get to that tomorrow. Or maybe tonight if I feel up to it. I wrote many thank you cards today. Worked on more trip pictures. I'm going to start that next. Well, typing the trip up first. That'll take some time. 7:17PM

Yes, I'm back and need to do a fair amount in the short I'm back for. As I'll be leaving again to visit VT for orientation. So I'm going to try to get the FL trip page asap. Then work on two layout requests. Which it was surprising to get, especially two in a short time span of each other. To confirm, of James Blunt and Alan Webb. I think I have pictures of Alan Webb from when I had Scanned open. But I hope to finish those two in a few days? Really hoping to. I was also surprised to see I got a new member for my fanlisting. If you check it out, it only has like 3 members, so I don't get new people often. Clearly. lol. Today I worked for 8 hours cropping/editing/uploading my 540 pictures from my trip. Took a placement test for UVM and that's really about it. 10:40PM
May 23, 2006 - May 29, 2006
HIATUS! I will be out of town from the 23rd - 29th. Don't expect any updates.
May 22, 2006
Mmm slept in today. Wait, what am I thinking. My alarm woke me up. lol. Anyway. I had to go buy some shorts today. I did just that, 4 of them, and 3 shirts, and some socks. Then went to Wal-Mart, then got some lunch. Came home. Tried to catch up on my internet things before I go away. And packed a little bit. Sorta, more like put things aside. And watched some 24. Picked up a rental car. That's it! 10:10PM

May 21, 2006
What a day. I'm quite tired. I woke up at 8. Texted Jen to make sure when we were suppose to be at the Centroplex. She said 11, so I texted Jamie. She was all ah, wtf, I thought it started at 2. Nope. So it's a good thing I did that because she was going to wake up at 10, whic was the time to leave to make the drive. But we had a slight crisis here so I had to go take care of that. Then went to Jay's donuts which made me late in leaving for downtown. I left at 10:30 and got down there at about 11:00. Parked and went in with Jamie. We got dressed in our costume, but we were going to be called on stage because we are seniors so we change back into 'street' clothes. Go on stage for the 12 o'clock show. They gave us a present and then we gave it back, lol, for later. Then we got dressed because the show started and then it was our turn to do the dance. So there was no problem in us missing the dress rehearsal. I wasn't planning on bringing it up in the first place but we went on ahead as usual. We danced. Oh, it was bad. I thought so anyway. I messed up but I thought I did rather well for how much I wasn't prepared. I just wasn't thinking about it before, didn't want to be crazy nervous. So then I changed back into street clothes. At the end of Act I, my mom came backstage and she, me, and Jamie (got to be awful grammar there lol) left and went to Tropical Cafe for lunch and then to my house to eat and kill some time. Finally it was time to head on back to the Centrolplex. We left at about 3:30 and arrived around 4:00. We waited around. Got called again for the 5 o'clock show, the senior thing. Got to keep our gifts. It was $25 and a CD case with their dance logo on it. And then we changed. Then it was time to go again! I did worse the second time around, but oh well. I had fun. I love being up there doing that though. I'll miss it for sure. I've done this for 13 years, like going to Runnels for 13 years. Right now, that was a majority of my life. So then we took a lot of pictures that I will not be posting here and then at the end of Act I again, mom came backstage. I gathered my things and went to the audience. Julie was there sitting with my family because she wanted to see my recital. So I sat next to her for Act II. It was fine. I have to say that the dances didn't seem that great, or the costumes. When that was over, we each went our own ways. I went home, parents got some pizza, and Julie did idk. That was it for today! And during the process on writing today I discovered that I didn't write about yesterday!! And I'm sure you all want to know about that! So I left the house at 12:40 and had a fine drive over to where it was to be held. Got there at, I'm not sure, close to 1:30ish. Maybe like 1:35 or so. Parked and called Grant's mom so she could find me. She did and we eventually took a seat. I met some of his people and eventually the graduation began. It was nice, but quite quite different from mine. Well they also had a much bigger class and couldn't get as personal, but quite different. It did end and we all went outside to find him. That took some time, but we did. I met some more people. Eventually it was time to go and Grant rode with me so he could show me where to go. Even though I brought directions, which in the end proved to be useless since he threw them in the backseat, lol. Yet we still got lost! lol. So I thought it was going to take forever to leave this place, but we went the back way and beat everyone else! yay. So off we were to his party thing. And we made some wrong turns. Oh well. We got there eventually. Let's see how many times I can say eventually. Okay. So we got there somehow before a fair amount of people. The rest arrived, eventually [i'm sorry lol] and some pictures were taken. Music was played. Food was eaten. Lots of talking, except from me because I am shyyyy around new people. ..heh. And more of things mentioned. It was lovely. (holding out from saying eventually) when it was over, Grant and I changed into 'street' clothes. if you will. lol. And off we went. Went to the lakefront at Lake Pontchartrain. Hah, looked that word up, can't spell it. And you probably aren't thinking it (saying it) correctly. Oh well. It was just sunset so twas beautiful. I took some pictures of course! And we saw some Katrina destruction and twas sad and we kept walking to the very end of it. Took some more pictures. Walked back, it was getting quite dark. Grant saw someone he knew. Gave them a dollar. lol. Then went back to my car. My feet were raw from my stupid shoes. We drove to another location, a coffee shop. But it was closed because their AC was broken. So we drove to another. I got a white hot chocolate and for some reason I was thinking white chocolate in the form of hot chocolate, but I think it was just warm milk. Gross. So he threw it away, lol, okay. And off we went. Made a stop. Then went to a Burger King/gas station to meet up with his mom. She didn't show up for a while so we went inside for a small amount of time. Then at 10, the station shut down and turned off all the lights.. .. um hm. lol. His mom [eventually] shows up and he leaves :( and I go home. But! Not before I pull off the road and go into some very large ditch/pot hole that probably hurt my front passenger tire. Excellent! But I do love driving on the interstate at night. It's empty and it's dark. I like it. 10:30PM

Graduation pictures. Real quickly: I woke up, did usual morning crap like check things on the internet, lol. Then I got in the shower and now it's now. At about 12:30 I'll be driving to Hammond for Grant's graduation. Afterwards we're going to his small party thing. Then when that's done we'll hang out for a little bit before he has to go to his project grad thing and I have to drive home because I may or may not be dancing in the dance recital tomorrow. k bye! 11:59AM

(later) The link to my graduation pictures. 7:44PM
--I am almost done with this busy week! So here's what went down yesterday. I left the house at about 3:05 but remembered uh oh I need to get gas. I do that and then call Jamie and she is suppose to meet up with me on the road. She finally catches up somewhere on the interstate. We pull off towards downtown. Park, I have to pay for her ticket in the garage. Then we walk into the Centroplex and see a girl Mary in our class in her costume. Uh oh. She says we were suppose to. What?! I never heard that and I haven't worn my costume to a dress rehearsal in years. So now I really didn't want to get on stage. Jamie didn't have hers, because I told her not to. So crap! Then the time creeps up on us. We go over some steps, but finally it's 4:45. And well, we leave. Jennifer stays. Okay. We sneak out. (oh and I paid for Jennifer's ticket to the garage as well.) We get out of the garage at 4:52. I don't get home until 5:55. I run inside saying this is ridiculous! I hop into the shower, wash my hair, dry it, put on makeup, and get dressed. I make 3 trips running back and forth to my car to get everything in it. And I'm on the road at 6:18. I get to school at about 6:28 since someone slow was in front of me arg. Then all these people had climb out of the truck in front of me instead of parking. ARG. I park and walk quickly holding all my crap to the chorus room. I see Jen there and she says, I left 20 minutes after you and still got here before you. Yeah, well I went home and took a quick shower. Bleh. Okay. So Jamie shows up. I'm finally all dressed. The whole class is in the room and the 'life' kids, from at least 1st grade on, take a picture. Then the whole class does. (only 44 of us, lol) That takes some time, but we eventually line up. I have Bryan hold my car key. Then the teachers go in the auditorium and then we go in. Jen and I walk down the aisle, it was fine. Everyone was looking and it was strange. Then Amber's mom takes a picture of us saying 'oo two for one' lol! We go on stage, go to center, then to our seats. And it beginsss. Idk. We went through a lot. I went up a few times to get the Presidential thingy. I also gave roses to my mom/dad since I've been a 'life' kid. Then we had Julie's dad as a speaker and he gave a nice power point presentation. Really nice. I showed up in some of his pictures. And Grant too. lol! Oh, Jen spotted Grant before I did and pulled me over to show me where, and I waved, it was funny. [ha, he just called. okay back to it] What else. So they gave out the diplomas. I actually got a little nervous right before my name was called. I went up and just stood there for a bit. My headmaster told me to wait a moment as my info finished. I graduated as Magna Cum Laude and I get the gold seal diploma and then the board of regents diploma. Two! Then I sat back down and kinda blanked out on the next few people, lol. Then we had the senior video. It was cute. And Grant showed up in that too. Then we sand the alma mater and that was alright. Then we went offstage and our walking out music was Don't You Forget About Me from the Breakfast Club. Then we went outside and got our DVDs and then threw out caps into the air. Except I kinda tossed mine because then everyone was all ahhhh where is mine? ahh. lol. I thought ahead. Then the audience came out and it was taking picture time. Finally I saw Grant and my family. Took some pictures. Then went on the great quest to find Rachel, Bryan, Matt, Jamie, Jen, and Amber to give them their cards. I gave Julie a ticket to my dance recital. If I dance in that, lol. I really don't care if she doesn't let me. Sorry, I had to graduate. Damn. Then it was time to go and Grant rode with me to Outback to eat. He gave me beautiful gift, a necklace. I'll get a picture of it up eventually. Then we went inside and ate. I had a terrible headache though and was pretty much done in for the rest of the night because of that. It sucked having it let me tell you. Jamie's family was there and then Amber showed up with her parents. We sat somewhat together. Divided by families. Then we left and went back to my house. I changed. Then I gave Grant his gifts. (birthday and graduation) Then we left and went to Karen's place since she was having a party and Jamie said at the restaurant that everyone is going! So I called her up to make sure Grant could go, he could, but no one (not even Karen) was at the house yet, so we drove towards Ben's apartment. Jamie finally let us in the gate. Then it turns out Karen got home and then we drove over there. We used the bathroom, lol, and then sat around for like 15-20 minutes. I didn't want to be there in the first place and nothing much really was going on. So we left and went to Grant's dad's apartment. Had only slightly a bit of trouble getting into that gate. Went inside and then turns out Grant forgot to bring the DVD he had planned. Aw. So we settled for watching tv. It was late, 1:30, so I left and came home. Went to sleep around 2:30. Today I woke up and did nothing. Well, I did watch the senior video again, uploaded the pictures (I'll try to do those tonight), and had some lunch. Jennifer brought over my gift. It's a leather briefcase! How about that. I thought it was great and I like it. Has two pens in there too. And a note. Wants to stay in touch, so I shall. And that's about it for today! 7:20PM
May 18, 2006
I graduate tonight! but before I can I have to go to my stupid dance dress rehearsal at 4. So I'll leave the house around 3. Get there after some okay traffic. Practice the dance with the group. Hopefully do the dance by 4:45. If not. I'm leaving. Too bad. I'm then going to fight traffic to get back home. Get home probably at aboput 6:10. Take a shower only to wash my hair. Then I'll dry it. Do some makeup. Get dressed and drive over to school to be there at 6:30. Then we take pictures and I look shitty. Then I get to graduate. That'll go from 7-9ish. Then I'll take pictures and give cards and stuff like that. Then my family and Grant will go to Outback for some food. Then there is a party at Karen's but I really don't want to go at all. So I might just skip out on that and spend some time with Grant. I don't care if I miss it. I really don't. After tonight, I'm done with these people. And I'll make my awaited 'transition' . 11:25AM
May 17, 2006
Woke up early today. Got ready and went to school when it typically starts. We were to practice for graduation. But first there was a brunch. That was cool I guess. I just had some coffee and sat around. We got a picture back, got a number, filled out something. I found out I'm graduating with magna cum laude. That's pretty awesome. I also got my report card, 8.6 yay. Then we began the practice. I get to walk with Jennifer and we want to do something when we make it to the stage, but we're not sure yet. It all went pretty well. I'm like 4th row back and can't really see into the audience, oh well. lol. We practiced the alma mater, should be funny. What else. What else. It was fine and I think our graduation has potential to be fun and entertaining and hopefully some good interesting things will happen that make it fun. Then I left and picked up some doughnuts. Went home, had them. Then mom and I worked on finding Grant a grad gift. And after all this work, we go out and buy it. Then get a few other things. I got a new purse whoot. We ate at the Cheesecake Bistro. That was pretty good. Then went home and I watched a lot of tv trying to catch up on shows so I can tape over them; 24. Watched the whole first half of Amazing Race, but I know who won (taped the rest). And I love the fact that whoever I really like and want to win the race, they do! And then I watched Lost. Which was good, but I expect the finale to be crazy. Except Michael is really getting on my nerves. 9:19PM
May 16, 2006
Okay, I want to do this as quickly as possible. Yesterday was insane. I went to Halmark like I said I would. I filled out an application and talked with the general manager there for a bit. Then I went to Wal-Mart. Then came home and I guess relaxed until after 2 when I went to Ben's apartment and practiced the hip hop dance with Jamie. We felt a little bit better, at least better for the hardcore practice later on. I got home at about 3:30. Then packed my things and went to dance for 5:30. We get a little bit later than normal and we begin the dance. This is the last practice before dress rehearsal and then the recital. omg!panic. So we see our head teacher come in and Jamie tries to explain that we have our graduation the night of dress rehearsal. We get no sympathy and she expects us to be there and then we can leave for graduation. Okay. So, it starts at 4:30, DOWNTOWN, and I won't dance until about 5:00-:15. Then I leave from DOWNTOWN and attempt to drive many miles out of the place through rush hour back to my house. I don't expect to get home until like 6:00-:10. And then that gives me like 10 minutes to take a shower and get ready to be at my school to take pictures/graduate at 6:30. I'm sorry, but I won't be late and miss it. It's stupid. I don't care. What I'll probably end up doing is go at 4:00 and stay as long as I can and then go home and shower. So she also kicks our class out 15 minutes early when we haven't even gone over the end. The part I sure as hell don't know. Um. wtf. Her class (younger kids) need more time, but hey so do we. Great!! Jamie asks to video the end and her camera faults up but luckily we get it. Thank god. So then we go change into some nice clothes. And boy am I just disgusting from dance. Sweaty. Gross. And we're all pissed off. It was not fun, lol. So we pile into Amber's car and drive to the Athletic's Banquet. It started at 6:30 and we left the dance place at like 6:20. We finally got to the place at 6:45 and went in. Took our seats in the back and corner with our parents. Which actually worked out because we were bad. lol. Just laughing and goofing off the entire time. It was a good time. I went up for bowling, but they didn't say a thing about me unlike the others. .. that sucked. Then went up for tennis and was shocked that I got a participant certificate for it. Then after it was over we went to back to Amber's car, but Amber had to go the bathroom so we drove closer and went back in the place. Then she drove us back to the dance studio and some people there were I guess waiting up to see why two cars were still parked there. Opps. They knew who we were though when we arrived. Sorry. They probably hate us now. So I drove home and drove back out to CVS to meet up with people. Go to Wal-Mart realize this is stupid and have someone drop me off back at my car and I go home. I stay up way late freaking out about said stupid thing and then finally go to sleep. (Yeah, I did that on purpose) Then today I woke up, got ready, and then went to school at 12:30 when it could have been 1:00. The academic awards went down. It was okay. Moved quickly this year and I got home at about 2:30. I got my pretty ribbon for the art show and that made me happy. I wanted a ribbon. Not to be selfish, but I did. lol. Got the Outstanding Excellence something or other award for Photography II, Merit Roll (because I effed up last quater getting two B's. Arg!!) and the Taylor award which you wouldn't know. And I don't feel like explaining. So later went to the mall with mom and shopped. I was just in a pissy headachey mood, but she helped me try to find something for Grant. It's been a battle. oo. Then we ate and came home. I finished watching the finale to Grey's Anatomy. Amazing. I cried. Shut up. lol. And yeah, this is very long for the little box. Sorry. Off to play InkLink now! 9:16PM
Quote of the day: "Your back hurts? Well it better be better for hardcore hip hop in a few hours." -Jamie.
May 15, 2006
Happy Birthday to Grant! Even though he doesn't know of this place. Yet. And I'm pretty sure the dance studio hates me. lol. 10:19PM
May 14, 2006
I apologize for that pathetic post yesterday. I could just delete it, but I'll keep it for posterity. ..lol, that didn't make much sense. Anyway. I'm feeling a little bit better. No more chills or aches. I've still got a swollen throat feeling going on. My ears, idk, I guess they feel somewhat remotely normal. I woke up at 11. Felt good, but still tired. I had insane dreams last night. Whoa. I don't feel like getting into them at this current moment. Which I won't ever, lol. I did nothing today. To be honest. I did go get lunch at Sonic. I yelled they are a bunch of fucking idiots in my dream. So I thought I'd give them a shot, lol. And they gave me like 4 honey mustards. lmao. I have some in stock now, awesome. lol. Been sifting through a lot of music today too. Um. That's it. Busy week here I come! 7:32PM
May 13, 2006
(later) I feel like shit. I guess I'm getting sick. My throat hurt last night, I woke up with it. Along with my ears hurting. And then in the evening my body begins to ache and now I've got chills. This couldn't be at better timing I tell you. Let me go over some things why this is just fantastic timing. I was suppose to go see about a job on Monday. Go to dance. *sneeze* Go to the Sports Banquet. Tuesday, I have to go to the high school Academic awards. Wednesday, I think it's my graduation rehearsal. Thursday, I have a dance rehearsal, but I may not even be able to make it because I have to graduate. Nothing Friday. On Saturday I'm suppose to go to Grant's graduation and party thing afterwards. On Sunday is my dance recital. I. Am. Fucked. And it's after 9 and I haven't eaten. But I don't care because I feel so bad I just want to crawl into bed and cry about my aches and chills and that I'm dropping damn weight again. I get pissy when I'm sick. 9:06PM
--New layout. Clearly. I like it. Hopefully you guys do too. And yeah. That's me. 12:38PM
May 12, 2006
(later) That took a while. The senior skip day photos! 10:14PM
--I've already lost track of the days. So! Last night I dreamt of volancoes and of tsunamis. ... and the night before I had one about a tornado. Yeah, I don't know. Did the usual morningness. I was bored and didn't really have much to work on in Photoshop, so I did as any person would and went outside to my backyard and took 48 pictures that I could manipulate. I made 3 manipulations. They kick much ass. Actually 2 of the 3 are same except for one image. I couldn't decide. I'll post them tomorrow. After 4 I left to go to Kadair's and picked up the pictures I took of myself yesterday. I hated them at first. My hair is just everywhere in the pictures. I took another look and well, I like them a lot now. lol. I then went to the mall to return the first white grad dress I got. I drove home and that was it. I worked on those pictures in photoshop, then dinner came eventually. And now I'm thinking if I should put those pictures here, or wait because I might want to put them elsewhere first. Hm! I will eventually, but just not yet. But I also really need to finish senior skip day huh. I'll work on that now. I've got a blister on my little toe on my left foot. It hurts. 9:09PM
May 11, 2006
Ooo my feet hurt. I woke up and went into the shower at some time. Then after noon we went to Halmart to get some cards. Ironically enough, a woman working there say they were shorthanded. (I've talked about working there for quite some time now. I just never got to it, heh) So as we checked out (was the plan all along) we asked about hiring. I was told to come back Monday after the Mother's Day rush. Cool. Okay. So we went to the post office. Then we went downtown! I never got my senior pictures done, besides the drape. So! Mom was like ehh, we won't do it. So okay. I take pictures. I've done them before of myself. I'll just do them. I told people this and they were all uh huh, you can't pull this off. So I really hope they turn out now lol. So we parked downtown, after circling a few blocks for hours. Okay minutes. Walked to the levee and took some pictures there. I hope they come out and don't look too boring. Then we walked (I was in heels, ouch.) to the church I've taken pictures of before because I thought it had a nice fence around it. I was wrong, lol. But I worked with the steps there. Then we went to this little corner resting area and finished the roll there. I put more film in and my camera wonky-ed out on me. And I couldn't take pictures with it. I think it loaded wrong, so there goes my last roll of film! And I was going to change for that roll too. Crap. So that ended that session and I only got 24 pictures :( Oh well. We brought it to Kadair's and I'll pick them up tomorrow. I really hope to prove people wrong lol. Really. So then my mom and I went to the mall, since we were near it, to get some lunch. Did just that and then went home. Oh wait no, went to Wal-Mart. Then went home. Talked to Grant for a bit. Then I threw myself into this Imogen Heap music lovin mood. I'm just digging her at this current moment. She has such a powerful and awesome voice. Wow. Then dinner came home and then I watched The Office finale. And omg, it was amazing. I taped it. Because, um, why not!? It was amazing. I'm considering on watching it again, but that would mean I would have to stop singing along to Just For Now and Hide And Seek. (by Imogen). I know, very tough. 9:20PM
May 10, 2006
Fine day I suppose. Sure! On request by my mother. I'm to show off this massive frog that visited our house a few nights ago. [Pic 1] [Pic 2] Okay now I can begin, lol. So! I slept in. It was amazing. Until 9 something. Yeah, you better believe that's late, lol. I went into the shower and remember uh oh! I'm suppose to go to school at 11:50 for some lunch! But it was alright, had lots of time. I made cookies and some tea. Then went to school, not as hungry, opps. Got food, then Jamie showed up. We ate. I was thanked for my rockin pictures I gave to my coaches. :D Then I went to see my Photo teacher to talk about this upcoming photo contest. Then made a stop by the office to get an ID, or some form of it since we don't use them. Then I went home. Mom came home and then we went on the great search to myself a graduation dress. She really hated the one I got, I really didn't feel like searching more. But whatev! .. Sorry. Okay. So we stopped at like 50 bajillion places. Finally did get something though. And then went to the mall and got shoes. She hate's them, but I refuse to look more. !Arg. So we got some dinch. (dinner/lunch) Yes I just came up with that shutup. And oh! I got some new glasses, or lenses rather. They rock. And I am soo blind that my lenses are stick way out of my frames, haha. But it's okay because they have this 'camo' thing where they color the sides of the lenses. This gives me more comfort / ability to appear in public with them. Seriously. I am el blind loser. And so then we went home and that's about it. Watched Amazing Race. Go BJ & Tyler. And watched Lost. holy crap omg. And that's it. ! I think I'm done, for now, with my trips of going back to school. 10:40PM
May 9, 2006
Last day of high school today! I am donneee. Yay. I woke up late, like 8:30, got ready and went to school at 11:00. Turned in my books and went to photo class. Then it was time for lunch, and Jamie and I got this tennis spirit lunch that you pay to have, lol. Then we took pictures. I brought the camera because I never was in the team pic, because I wasn't ever there on the picture taking dates. So I set it up and it turned out really well! So that one, and a picture of the seniors, myself and Jamie, will both go on this plaque thingy for us. Then I checked out, lol. And went home. Then eventually met my mom over to the senior picture place to complain and then came home. Eventually had dinner. I am done with high school. It's amazing. Glad to be able to say that. I spent my evening playing InkLink with Grant. We rock. lol. :D 11:05PM
May 8, 2006
So woke up at the regular early hour. Went to school and sat doing nothing in my first three hours. It lasted a very long time. I went to Photo and printed, but the paper is bad because we only have a little bit left and it's exposed :( I checked out right at lunch. Went to Tropical Cafe, got some lunch and came home. I then ate, and then I waited until it was time for me to go to my doctors appointment. I went and waited quite a while. Arg. Went in and it was okay. Went back home, pretty much. Then after a while it was time for dance. It was fine. I'm still nervous about the end. I know pretty much all of it but the last 35 ish seconds. And Jamie recorded the dance, but her battery died just at the part we didn't know. How terrible! Dance hates us! lol. Then I picked up dinner for myself and then for mom. Came home, ate, now I'm watching 24. That's all for now. 8:06PM
May 7, 2006
A wonderful night. I went to his dads apartment because he said he was going to brush his teeth. So I said, I'm here and he said he's about to get to the gas station near the apartments. Wait, what? Okay. I'll just wait. So some time goes by and I call him back asking, where do we meet? Gas station. Uh oh. lol. So he said he'll come to me, but that's stupid so I go pick him up. It was raining. Now I was freaking out over the weather because we were under a tornado watch and everything. And I was waiting for a call from mom but she hadn't called back for some reason. So we went back to my house and found a movie to watch. Ah and he gave me two gifts. Sweet. This rock in the shape of a heart, and it has one side removed so you can like rub your thumb on it to relax. I think? Lovely. And then a teddy bear. It's pink and soft, cute. And it came with a birth certificate and he wrote a wonderful note on it. So we got the movie The Rundown and didn't get through much of it, for two reasons. Well 1, mhmm. And 2, we ran out of time anyway. Plus we were interupted many a times, with 2 phone calls and my annoying dog that would jump up on the couch and then on us. ... lmao. I knew that was going to be a problem, lmao. Then we left for the airport. Drove around a bit in the area since we were early and then stopped at the gas station. He got some food and then it was time to pick mom up. We did and he helped with her luggage. Good guy. And we drove back to the house. But I got gas first. We were there for some amount of time. Maybe 30 minutes or so. He took one of my printed pictures :) And then we went to the are where his dad works. We drove around it first, then went into the Latin Quarter store, neat place. Then walked around some more. Then went to his dads place to eat. It was good, just wish I was hungrier. Then we left and went back to his dads apartment. We put in the movie Fight Club and watched most of it. He made cookies. He loves them. Then we watched some other shows/games and then lmao, we began to wrestle / tickle. And omg, I woke up quite sore this morning. And tight in my neck and back. But it was so much fun. Oh, and I've got random dot looking bruises on my legs, lol. And then his dad came home and then I left. I hate leaving him. But it was a fantastic night. Then I came home and went to sleep. Today I woke up and talked to mom more. Turns out the ducks in our backyard had ducklings. About .. 10 or so. Pretty neat. We hope a lot survive. Then I had some breakfast, eventually got in the shower and went out to some stores. Stopped at the library and then picked up some lunch at McDonalds. Then stopped at CC's for my mom. Saw Stormie and Stephen there, and turns out Rebecca works there. Then I came home and did some random things. It feels like I should have some homework to do, but nope! Will watch my shows, hopefully talk to Grant, and then back to school that will be filled with nothingness. And then I'll check out for an appointment. 7:44PM

Got my graduation dress this morning. I look like crap in white dresses, but had to get a white one. And now I'm running a wee bit late on getting ready for Grant's arrival. And then we have to go pick up mom at the airport and it's going to rain something awful. I am scared. And we're under a tornado watch. Ah, I hate the spring weather. I'll either update again tomorrow or way late tonight. 12:52PM

I'll be amazed when a to go or fast food place gives me the correct order. Was going to go to school at 4th hour, but found out the mall opens at 10, which wouldn't give me enough time. So! I went to school. Half our class was there in 1st, we folded papers for our teacher. In 2nd, maybe a third of us were there. We sat and did nothing. Well, talked, but nothing. In 3rd, we went over some Stats problems, blahh. In Photo, I went out to the swings with Julie and Rachel and took a few pictures and dude, as I was swinging, I got soo dizzy. It was weird. Then I went in and printed. Then there was the crawfish boil. It was alright. I sat/stood and took pictures. At one point, Michael went with me to check out my car (the paintballs hits) as we both don't like the taste and smell of crawfish. Tis gross. I took a lottt of pictures. Might put them here, if I ever get to them. Then I went with Jamie and Amber and printed in the darkroom some more. We left and I went to pick up my senior drape pictures, but crapp the place didn't touch up the images. So who knows what we'll do now. I then picked up some lunch at Arby's and they messed up my order. I ate it anyway and then went to the comp and did I don't remember. Oh, worked on the pictures from today. Then I went outside and cleaned the paint off my car. It came off so that's good! Then I played some internet games with Grant. He's coming in tomorrow. I'm excited. 9:20PM

What a sucky day. I got up early and went to school to take my Eng AP test. It was pretty well. I didn't know what to expect, sorta, and it was just fine. I then went to Pizza Hut for lunch and came home. I let the dog out. No problems today. Went back to school and took my Astron exam. Easy, I got a 96. Yay. I then walked to see Jamie, but she wasn't in Photo. So I called her, asked her a question, then went to see my tennis coach in her room. Was told to drop my money that I had for her at the office. I then went back to the photo room and went in the darkroom and printed with Mollye. She left and Tori tried to teach Jordan how to print. ... oh lololol. And he stayed in with me. I cleaned up and then checked out. I came home. Guys. I'm done with exams, I'm pretty much done. Other than the fact I have to show up 3 more days. Exciting! I did my online stuff and then went to lay down on the couch. I fell asleep for about 2 minutes total because people kept calling arg. I then watched tv. Then went out at some time to get dinner. I went to Sonic. They took forever and a damn day, but hell I tipped her $1. I never tip. Then I came home and near my neighborhood some asshole kids shot my car 8 times with a paintball gun. I was soo fucking angry it wasn't even funny. Dad cleaned it off for me and yeah, I took 3 pictures. Then they fucked up dads order, my order was barely even there. Like half a portion of the small size and I asked for large. And my drink was awful. I threw it out. See if I go back there for a very long time. So awful night. Awful. I'm still pissed about the car shooting. 9:15PM

(later) Okay, finished the VT/VA trip page. 10:15PM
--Here I am trying to think of an awesome beginning sentence. Alas, I can't. Oh! Nah, I've ruined the moment. Okay, so I talked to Grant last night which was wonderful. He's coming in to town Saturday. Haven't seen him from the 9th. And today is the 3rd. Let's do some obvious math. It's almost been a month. Oh hey, I never got up the senior skip and VT/VA page huh? I'll work on the VT one tonight. I've done a fair amount already. I'm doing it as the same way as the Alaska page. Anyway. Woke up early this morning. I got to school at 7:42ish. Began the Calc AP test around 8ish. It was pretty good. Much better than Stats anyway. I'm a little nervous about the Eng one tomorrow. We didn't do a practice test for that one. We've gone over some examples, but I'd never be as prepared for it like math. For me anyway. So afterwards I went to the office to inform them I'm going to lunch and have to let the dog out so I'll be late for 5th hour, lol. They said okay and off I went to Burger King. I got caught in the lunch traffic. It was 12:15. Normally I've already beaten that by 25 minutes. Yeah. So I got that and went home. I put Lexi out and she runs right back and is biting her foot. I go into mother mode and think omg! what bit her?! Or stung her! or oh crapp, wtf do I know!!! Ah. Okay, call mom. I talk to her for a bit and then eat lunch. She decides it was some ants that got to her. Didn't think we had any. Anyway. So I go back to school, hoping that the puppy will still be alive when I come back. Really. What if she had a reaction? Well I did sit with her for a while. I stopped by my online course and then I went to the photo room. When 6th came around, Jamie and I went into the darkroom and printed. She didn't much luck. I was having issues with idiot people exposing paper and ruining it for the rest of us. I checked out after that hour and came home. Did some Eng and did some Astron. I didn't take Astron today because I decided that I could have studied more. And I did. I feel better now. After 4 I went to my dance place and picked my tickets (the row) for my dance recital. It goes from A-Y. I picked U. ... no!!! How terrible! So Jamie calls me up, after I told her, and she got B! nooo!!! I went to Wal-Mart and got some more Starbucks drinks for the morning. Did the trick this morning. Well, it helped anyway. Came home and yeah. Okay. Anddd oh. I was so worried the Tyler and BJ would be kicked off tonight on Amazing Race! I screamed for joy when they were still in it. But poor guy didn't have any shoes on! And then Lost. !! Omg!! What a crazy show. I'm pretty shocked over what happened within the last 10 minutes. But stop where you are and don't skim, because this is all I'm warning about. I don't care. Anyway, about Anna Lucia dying. She always bothered me. Hey, maybe her and Libby were off drinking and driving because they were killed off. Ahaha. Okay. But hey. Maybe. lol. 9:34PM
Quote of the day: "Did you just turn on the light??" "...er. yeah." Jamie, then me. In the darkroom. Apparently she thought it was too quick and it went on by itself. lolololol.

I am tiredd. I'm starting these blogs off with strange opening sentences these days. Anyway, woke up very early. I had to go to this NHS teacher appreciation breakfast. I walk in and say, oh yay sure glad I dressed up like everyone else. ..no one did. So I dropped off my muffins and changed, lol. Glad I brought something. So I did that from 7:30-8:30. Went through the morning classes. Well, 3 of them. Then at 11, I checked out. I went to Burger King to pick up some lunch and then I went home to eat/let the dog out. Then I went back and took my Stats AP test. Boy it was hard. I hope I get a 2 like last time. Whoa, it was hard. So then we got out at 3:30 and I went home. Went over some Calc and Astron. As I will be taking those tomorrow. I have a headache right now. bleh. And I'm very tired, so I may really try to go to bed earlier tonight. Rose commented. It's been ages since anyone has. Thanks girl! It's quite alright and glad to see you back again!! 8:52PM

Hello May. May. The month I graduate. From high school. It's the end. Omg, excitement. I'm soo ready to leave. So today was fine. Typical. It's starting to slow down now. As things are coming to an end. I did have an 'evil memory quiz' (that happened to be about 16 pages or so long). It was alright. I went as expected to me. Trying to get through as many poems and short stories as possible in Eng. Stats, still trying to go over things. Photo, hm, what did I do. Oh, nothing. I went to the office for a portion of it. Went to Subway with Julie, Jessica, Bryan, Lauren, Tori, Rachel, and Kyle and this other guy James was there. Went back to school, made a few emails during Astron. I'll be taking that final Wednesday. 6th and 7th hour were quite long and uneventful. After school, I got my cap and gown (!!!) from the office with Jen and then we went over the hip hop dance discovering that we don't remember any of the new stuff from last night. That'sss not good. I went to Wal-Mart and bought four packs of muffins for NHS tomorrow. Teach appreciation breakfast thingy. I came home and did, Idk. Did go to dance and I came to the realization that we have only two lessons left and I have no idea how to do the last 30-45 seconds or so. Um. Crap. Not good! Got dinner, came home, looked over my AP Stats and watched 24. Now I'm doing this and I'm quite tired so I may try to call it a night, but will probably wait until 10 or so. 9:01PM
