My Day...In Body Parts

Basically a sum up of my day...just with body parts. That's the only way to explain it. :) I'm weird, I know!

Jaw...bruised from getting elbowed (insanely hard) during an intense game of Jonny Ball(volley ball w/a giant bouncy ball).

Cheeks...Red from blushing as I posted flyers on a giant window wall as Mr. McCrushyCrush and the rest of my school lacrosse team wall worked out inside....most of them shirtless....

Eyes...almost red for almost crying as my mom didn't come pick me up from school or answer her phone for a whole 45 minutes! And I hardly ever shed a tear! (I have to add she's never done this ever before!)

 via
Body...tired from staying up so late to write my history paper and from getting up at 4:30, four thirty...i know.

Ears...Apparently not working. My mom said my music was too loud and I honestly didn't think it was.

Toes...A tad sore from those too tight shoes from sixth grade that I wore today, but hey I did get a compliment from someone I didn't even know so was it worth it?! ha

 via
Tummy...probably expanding from those girl scout cookies and Chinese takeout I just ate. On the other hand I only at half a wrap at school because I wasn't hungry. But also had a donut for breakfast....whatever..

 Hair...Amazingly straight and put up in a loose-ish pony tail. I'm really digging it. It's cute!

Hands...Black from the paint I used when I was diving into my creative-ness.

 via
Fingers...Sore from crocheting lovely stuffed animals that I should really show you pictures of!

Head...Spinning with a million thoughts. Sometimes I don't even understand my own head! ha

Heart...happy from loving these adorable things!

Today was a good day. Tomorrow we're going out of town to do some shopping and to see my cousin who was in a bad car wreck a couple months ago.

PS. I blame the odd formatting on blogger. It's being weird, but I think I got things pretty good.

Likeies

I find it surprising how much you can learn about a person by reading what they 'like' on facebook. These are a surprising way you can get to know someone, so here are some of mine.

• All those years I watched "Blues Clues" I Didn't know Blue was a girl.
•  Paper beats rock? ok, i will throw a rock at you and you defend yourself with paper
•  Hearing my voice in a video and thinking oh dear....
•  *walks upstiars* "What did I come up here for?" *walks back down* "UGH NOW I REMEMBER"
•  Ripping grass out of the ground and putting it on the person next to you :)
•  Try me! *Presses button on toy* *blares out loud* *walks away* I didnt do it
•  Accomplishing something before the microwave reaches :00.
• Finding Money In Your Pocket
• Everything is funnier at 4 A.M.
• Getting Paranoid When I Notice Patterns On Multiple Choice Tests
•  Random laughter when remembering something
•  Spinny Chairs
•  i wanna talk to you so bad, but i hate feeling like i bug you. :/
•  Its true...I have fallen UP the stairs...:)
•  Call Me Mr. Faceboook, I Can Make Yo Grades Drop!
•  I don't know what to talk about, but i wanna talk to you.
•  Before I Go To Sleep, I Start Imagining Stuff That I Would Like To Happen
• Saying goodbye to your pet when you leave the house
• Catching yourself smiling while texting and people look at you like a freak
• oh great now that song's stuck in my head all day and i only know 1 line.
• Tripping when you think there is another step but there really isn't
• Talking while you type and end up typing what you were saying.
•  "Mom, can we go?" "Yeah, just a second" *10 minutes later* "MOM..."

Sorry for the not so interesting post....homework calls! :(

Goodnight!!

Emotions/'Liking'

Today I am stealing part of a post from my friend Miss Em. She deleted her blog, but I stole this before she did. (mwahahaha) I think what she wrote is very true for many teens. 

Emotions


They just make life seem like One. Big. Mess. huh. 

They can ruin friendships or make them so complicated.

Or they can ruin your friendship with someone else, when you both have the same feelings for another person.

They can tear you up and make you go insane trying to hide them.

Or, they can be the biggest mess in the world once you reveal them. 

They can make you hurt all over when they aren't returned.

Or they can make you hurt all over when you can't return them. 

And then there's when you feel the same way as someone else, but you know it's best not to let the feelings show and let them pass, but the other person thinks otherwise. 

And all that is just when you have feelings of "liking" someone.

Then there's all the complex, emotions like sadness, anger, hurt, fear, confusion, discomfort, happiness, joy, love,  anxiety, depression.

Anyhow., lets just say every person has to face all these, every day, just like everyone else. So., we might as well get used to it. 

Embrace the complicated., crazy world of Emotions. They can be to our advantage. As is unfair-nses. 
~Miss Em'

The thing is I don't want to like someone, but I can tell it's happening. I don't think crushes are the best thing in the world. Usually they lead to things like anger, hurt, fear, confusion, or depression. Not to mention they're uber distracting!! It also doesn't help when your bestfriend is poking you saying "I think someone likes you!...and I think it's mutual!" I also am pretty sure nothing will ever happen with this because, well I'm me and I typically won't let it. 

I don't think boyfriends are bad, but should people my age really be dating? I just can't decide. Plus me being me again would set boundries, strict boundries, and also follow them, but is that enough. I don't think there is a set age people should be expected to start dating, but there should be a too young age. I'm a mentor for a group that goes to middle schools and one of the topics is Healthy Relationships and in that it has 'How do you know if you should date someone?' section. Ha. I just read it. 

Anywhoo, it's not like I'm friends with and like this guy and am just going to be dating him the next day, I'm just pondering. Hopefully I can keep all my emotions in check and always do what's best for me.

Too Much Homework!

Dear Mr. Booky Book,
Every time I looky look....
I want to hit myself in the head.
Well I think it's time for bed.

I have too much homework for a real post, but I hope you enjoyed my lovely poem. And now I leave you with a video.

Superduper Bowl

Okay so I have a confession...I didn't watch hardly any of the Super Bowl. haha. Oh boy but I did enjoy many  yummy foods that come along with that one day. Oh, and may I introduce to you Mr. Mancake...

Yes that is mashed potatoes, green beans, meatloaf, and pepper sprinkles you see....and I shall add that they were absolutely delicious! They were the genius creation of my mind. I was at work and my boss and the other pastry chef we're talking about a chicken wing cupcake that has become uber popular after being featured on Jay Leno. Well I started thinking to myself "How gross!!" , but then I was thinking it would be kind of cool to make a not cake cupcake. That's where Mr. Mancake comes in :) I'd also like to add that everyone that tried them liked then, I think next time it would be cool to do gravy drizzle instead of green beans and pepper.

Anywhoo, I'm full from still eating my yummy buffalo chicken dip. Oh boy was that delicious. I also have a new addiction to Pita Chips, I think I need to see a counselor. Seriously. ha

Well I hope you had a superduper Super Bowl too!!

Ps. I think that picture is pretty good considering I took it on the kitchen floor on a posterboard with an iPhone. :) hehe Well goodnight!!

Confession Numero Dos

I've been a little post slacker, I could come up with excuses, but that's annoying. I miss you guys when I don't post though!

Anyway on to confession #2....I'm afraid of the dark. It's undeniably true. I don't even know why! It's not that scary.

I go out of my way to avoid dark places and if at all possible. When I walk through the house and it's dark I'm scared! When I was little, I would always be sure I was on the same floor as my parents and would turn all the lights on. I guess I've seen too many scary shows like Mystery Murder and whatnot or E! Investigates. Sometimes I think someone is going to jump out from behind the shower curtain and stab me....ya....it's bad.

If only it were that easy to not be scared!!  Anyone afraid of the dark?! Any tips?!

Help Me!! ha
