Lies and falsehoods, Padfoot!

It is so weird to me that St. Patrick's Day is such a non-holiday for so many people. It has always been a really big deal in my family (mostly because of my mother) but also in school and life in general.

-When I was little, I used to take milk to school for lunch (in a Beauty and the Beast thermos that 1. matched my sweet BatB lunchbox and 2. leaked like a motherfucker) and every year on St. Patrick's Day my mother would sneakily dye my milk green, and then tell me the leprechauns had done it.

-We made leprechaun traps every year in school, and on St.Partick's Day morning our classrooms would be festooned with little green footprints (that looked suspiciously like fingerprints) and harmless pranks. And those damn leprechauns somehow managed to always get the bait (Rollos) out of the traps without getting caught. I think I believed in leprechanuns until like, high school.

-There is always ALWAYS corned beef and cabbage and soda bread, and no one in my family is ever not wearing green (I used to even have little shamrock decals for my nails). I always try to watch The Luck of the Irish on Disney (made a lot easier by my DVR) and I did manage to make it through one of the Leprechaun movies once (The second one? Maybe? It gave me nightmares regardless) because I am committed to this holiday.


Basically, St. Patrick's Day is a BIG DEAL and I don't know why everyone else doesn't think so.

Just so we're all on the same page, 5am is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too early to be awake.

And I can no long glorify in having no classes before 10, because I'm now taking Adolescent Development at 9:30. (Which is only a half hour earlier, so it's not a huge deal, but still.) 

Why am I taking Adolescent Development, you ask? Well, because Evolution got cancelled, due to the professor getting tonsil cancer. (I didn't even know there was such a thing.) I didn't actually need to pick up another class, I mean, I'm good as far as graduating credits go, and I was taking 12 credits (the number you need to be a full time student) for the semester, but I felt like such a slacker, taking only three classes. So I scoured the class list and signed up for a psych class that I hope will be fun. We'll see how that goes.

The good news is, I don't have to be in this class, so I can totally drop it if it's boring or hard or I don't like the teacher.


Just updating on my life. School starts on Monday. I actually want to start school. It's a strange feeling.

 I know most, or all, of you are going to disagree with this, but, to be both honest and nasty, I don't really care. I'm angry, this is my journal, and I'm going to type it out.

MY YEARBOOK CAME TODAY!

Yay.

I like the fact that I'm in it several times, and that my senior picture came out well, and that they included me in all the appropriate clubs and spelled my name right.

However, according to this yearbook:

Hannah is a junior who has not yet graduated.

This girl's name is either Kathryn Ogorzalek, Katherine Ogorzalek, or Kathryn Orgazolek. (The first one is the correct spelling)

Kathryn is not a member of Encore Theater, even though she's the the picture and was the Treasurer.

Anna's last name is Laird.

Kelli may actually spell her name with a Y.

Hannah may actually spell Sternberg "Sternburg"

And I think the cover is ugly.

Sorry, I'm having icon ADD again. Expect frequent icon changes in the near future.

I have to have a serious journal entry for a minuet. I've been feeling really off lately, like I want things or want to do things that no one else wants to do, and I don't know why. Also, I desperately want to read and finish the stories I am writing, but whenever I have a free moment I seem to be on the computer or watching tv...

I just feel like I'm in an awful funk and I don't know what to do.

And, I got a 74 on my Calc test, and I know none of you are going to quite understand what that means in terms of my life, but it's bad. Trust me. And I can't possibly do anything more to bring up my grade in Calc. I go to class, I pay attention, I take notes, I do the homework, I study, and I still can't manage to get back up to the A I used to have. WTF?

HUGE SIGH

I just want high school to end and college never to begin. Is that so much to ask?

Because I am also stressing about the overnight at St. Michael's this weekend, which I am dreading. And I know that I'm going to have to spend every night there eventually, but it'll be in my own room, (well, with a roommate but still at least partly my own room) and it'll just be different and I don't wanna go.

I DONT WANNA GO TO COLLEGE!!!!!!!!

I just hate this. All of it. Anything that involves the word school or class or test or quiz.

But I don't hate any of you, and I won't care if you don't even read this, because I know it's long and boring and stupid.

But I feel slightly better now.

First, a thank you. Becky: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUCKING AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU FOREVER AND A DAY, AND EVEN LONGER THAN THAT. THAT CD IS FUCKING AMAZING! THANK YOU! (also, I was listening to it in my car and I was on Music of the Night and I had it turned up really loud, and the next song starts with wicked loud and creepy organ music, which I did not know, and it scared me and I screamed and panicked and couldn't remember how to turn it down. So thank you again!)

Second, a rant: You know, if you walk down the hall, innocently, and someone innocently bumps into you, they usually apologize, especially if they know you, they may even use your name, or at the very least they look ashamed, or mumble something, or smile or giggle or SOMETHING to show that they are sorry. Some really nice innocent people do this even if it is not their fault.

And sometimes someone may innocently scratch you with their binder, or tread on your foot, and not notice, and that is ok because hallways are crowded places.

These two classes of people are nice, normal people who can go hang with Azriphale in Heaven.

Then there are some people who will carelessly and not innocently at all whip their hats around, and smack innocent passersby who are deep in thought and therefore looking at the floor, in the forehead, and then LAUGH ABOUT IT. These people should burn in Hell, not with Crowley, because even he, a minion of Hell, is too good for them.

These people are Zach Smith, the bloody wanker. (Can you all tell I am 1. Pissed, and 2. Have been reading Good Omens today?)

Thirdly, quotes! I am glad you all liked my easy quote, I made it easy on purpose, and I am glad many people commented ad all got it right. Those people will each get a Eunuch point, and they are Bart, Janeea, Alison, Kim, Sarah, and Hannah. Yeah!

Now for the next quote, you get one point if you get it, and 10 points if you can tell me the missing lines to the songs, from the same movie, which I will also post. AND, I will give 5 points to anyone who tells me the actress who is the main character.(This gives you all sort of a chance to catch up to Janeea, who is currently kicking all your butts with 16 points. The closest is Becky with 9 points.) "This isn't the Fairy Vale. It's only a weed patch."

Song 1:
Let me be your wings
Let me be your only love
---------------------
Let me be your wings
Let me lift you high above
Everything we're dreaming of
Will soon be ours
Anything that you desire
Anthing at all
Every day I'll take you higher
And I'll never let you fall

Song 2:
Romeo and Juliet
Were very much in love where they were wed
-----------------------------
So where are they now?
They're dead, dead, very very dead!

Well here I am, home for lunch due to Senior privliges and a study hall, and I should be doing my physics homework, but here I am, taking posting quizzes. Heh.

You scored as Hermione Granger. Your alter ego is Hermionie Granger. Your one intelligent witch, but you have a hard time believing it and require constant reassurance. You are a very supportive friend who would do anything and everything to help her friends out. </td> Hermione Granger 85% Remus Lupin 75% Ron Weasley 65% Draco Malfoy 60% Sirius Black 60% Albus Dumbledore 55% Severus Snape 50% Harry Potter 45% Lord Voldemort 15% Peter Pettigrew 5% Your Harry Potter Alter Ego Is...? created with QuizFarm.com

That scare anyone else just a little? I am 60% Sirius though...

So yeah well this semester is off to a good start. I don't have any homework other than physics, and I get to go home every other day. Yeah for being a senior!

Also, funny thing to write about again! Yes!

Mrs. Alonso gave Ari a Spanish SAT II book "to have and to hold" and then Ari goes "Till death do us part!"

Then in physics Mr. Welch was trying to explain...umm...well I wasn't paying attention to what principle it was, it might have been Bernoulli's...ANYWAYS he was tryong to illustrate a princlple.

Mr. Welch: When you have a garden hose, and you don't have a nozzle you put your thumb over the spout, and what happens?
Steve: Your thumb gets cold. (I love Steve)

And now, the movie. The answer to the last quote was Finding Neverland. Bart and Jean got it right. For a prize, they get this link to a biographical site about J. M. Barrie. http://www.kirjasto.sci.fi/jmbarrie.htm

The next quote is "The flower that blooms in adversity, is the most rare and beautiful of all."
