So I just realized I totally forgot to rant on Avatar the Last Airbender. Went to see it Sunday with Mike and Caitlin.
Anyways the first thing that bugged me was how the chick that played Katara kept pronouncing Avatarwrong. I mean it was a cartoon for crying out lound, everything was already pronounced for you, not like there was any question on how to say it. She pronounced Aang wrong too. Plus the story line was chopy, like they tried to pick the most important eps but it still didn't really go along together. And they left out the Kiyoshi Warriors, you think that would have been more important than when Aang gets caught in the bender prison in some random Earth Nation. The whole movie was just off, I probably won't end up going to the next ones.
Other than my discontent with Avatar, I finally finished all my stuff for The Stranger and now have to work on One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest. My one true wish right now is being able to finish all this AP work before its due. Way too much work for my summer.

good golly gosh
spain won the world cup T.T
Anyways watched Remember Me yesterday just before the cup, took forever to watch 'cause we had to pause to do some clean up session. As for the movie, I really liked it, but it left one unresolved issue and the ending was completely unexpected. Like, I highly doubt anyone could have predicted it, or I just totally missed any foreshadowing. But it was still a pretty good movie, but I'm one for chick flicks anyways.
Today my mission is to finish my reading logs for The Stranger so I can start reading One Fell Over the Cookoo's Nest, which actually seems interesting. I think I might get the audio thing though just to speed up the process. In fact that is my plan for this year. I took the list of books on the list of what we should read this year and checked out all the audio books for each of them. Because I know that otherwise I won't read any of the books I'm not into, so hearing it speeds up the unmoving process.
think I'm gonna watch A History of the World Part I while writting

I can't Supress, so I might as well Confess
So I was listening to "If I had You" and while listening to the song all I could picture was some club with strobe lights, but whenever I actually look at the words it almost sounds like a romantic song O.O I really don't understand that
Watched Invictus yesterday, loved it! And right after watching it I imedeately looked up when the next Rugby World Cup would be, next year in September, at New Zealand. I found the host country a bit ironic seeing as the movie is new-ish and the guys the South African team went up against in the final round was New Zealand. But I was the only one in the house laughing at that irony.
Anyways today is the last day of the World Cup(Football version, or Soccer for the Yanks)!!! It's Spain vs. Netherlands and I'm rootin' for the Netherlands!!! I'm only really cheerin' them on 'cause of Lieka, an exchange student from there that was at our school last year, and she was so adorable. But anyways I'm excited for the game.
Oh also today is a month from my birthday!!!And I've got about 20 some odd days to finish all my English AP work T.T All I have left to do for the first book is to type up 3 reading logs and fill in one box of the worksheet. Problem is I have no clue how to fill in the last box.

It might just be better to forget, rather than be dragged down by love
Hmmm, not sure if I like the new changes or if I'm just not used to them. I suppose it doesn't really matter either way.
Anyways went down to SC for the week, we kept going to the pool and beach but I never went swimming T.T Posiden banned me from the water.
While at the resort we watched the games, and after Germany lost I decided we would have octopus for dinner as revenge against the octopus that predicted Spain would win. So no I'm rootin' for the Netherlands to win the Cup, seeing as I at least know one person from there that was an exchange student this past year.
I've sadly already come to the point where I can't wait for school to start, but first I gotta finish all the AP work that's due this August. I finally finished reading The Stranger, it was soooo pointless and irritating. How can no one ever not have an opinion?!?!?
Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family, with stuff for the next and final movies. Psyched for both of them, though a little nervous, hoping they do well with the book to movie transition.
Hmmm, I think I've run out of things to say

What do you do when the joke is real? Just laugh along
Psh, US is out of the world cup TT.TT
Trying to read The Stranger for AP English, I hate it, the main character is really annoying and it never gives you the first name.
Sooooo, anyways, I kinda just wanted to post to post, don't have much to say. Saw Toy Story 3 today, it was amazing

More of the World Cup
La di da dum. Cameroon just scored. Not exactly in the game, but I think I'm gonna root for Denmark. Yesterday the US totally got cheated, ref gave a yellow card on the one guy that didn't foul. T.T We would have won if that goal counted.
I've got nothing new to talk about really. Started working on my AP Psych summer homework, just cause I know that I won't ever really start till late so I might as well do a little at a time. On the note of AP classes, I have discovered that I really do want to take AP Spanish, but have no open classes. The only things that I'm not required to have are AP Phsyc and Latin II. Can't drop Psych, cause I don't want to and I've already started the homework. And Latin II will get me a chord since I'm in the honor society. But I love Latin and the teacher I should get next year, however that teacher might get re-assigned, which would probably kill Latin for me. I mean my teacher knew all the Monty Python references I used. Plus I'm not sure if AP Spanish had any summer assignments. But I really want to take it T.T This year it would all be conversational rather than gramatical like this past year.
Anyways, the reason I got re-inspired to take Spanish was cause I went to school with my mom yesterday and I met the Spanish teacher there and we talked, in Spanish of course, and he told me I was pretty good and I shouldn't quite and all that. Plus he knew Juanes, the amazing Columbian musician.
-Sigh- It seems I won't ever be completely done with Spanish.

Finally Hitting Senior Year
The moment I could call myself a Senior was the moment I began to look back on Freshman year. It’s all blur now, as if those days we're so far away, even when only a few years have gone by. Lots of things have changed, a lot has stayed the same. I’ve done a lot of things that I could list, going on and on, but I don’t think I have to. Everyone has experienced life in high school, and those memories last forever. It may be a pain in the moment, but these memories will be brought back with a smile.
The first day, the first step, it all is different. I for instance fell off my bus seat, but other’s tell a story of their own, that is theirs alone. The first all the one’s that will always be imprinted in our minds. Our first date, first kiss, first love, first love lost, first time driving, first car, first accident. First failure, first success. These memories are now only things we recall, but that means that we will never lose them.
I now know people who have driven me insane, people I’ll never forget, people I’ll be glad to never seen again, and people I will cry for when they leave. I remember my crushes, especially those that I thought were love. I remember fights, make-ups, all the pointless stuff that had been forgotten by the next day. I can recall all the people I have come to hate, and the person I hated. I’ve gained and lost, but in reality the important thing was that I made it through it all.
Everything that has happened since I stepped on my bus the first day has changed my life, and shaped my world. The things I’ve written, read, and done, all were part of the moment. I’ve cried and yelled and broken down completely, but I’ve laughed and learned and shared with some of the best people I have ever met.
Though it was a pain to go through, I believe I’ve come to love my high school experience. The ups and downs and what I became because of it.

tied the game, but can our hearts say the same?
So I remembered something I wanted to say something last time Xp
Anyways, we were watching From Far and Away with Tom Cruis (who didn't look all that bad in this movie). But Cruis is Irish, so of course he's drinking, and he's clutz. So I am wondering if I'm just naturally drunk cause I'm Irish and that's why I'm a clutz.
Hmmm, I guess that's it

US vs England, bad dancers
World Cup!
US and England are about to go, and I'm getting excited! But I was watching some of the players warm up earlier and it looked like the were trying to do some dance routine, but failing.
So, the major disappointment this week was that I spent all my money on the field trip to the mall and can't afford the new Monty Python movie, He's Not the Messiah (He's a Vary Naughty Boy). It should be epic, but I won't know ...
This week seemed to drag on forever and ever, plus Friday didn't even feel like a Friday.
Apparently you have to get your senior prank approved by the principal . . . I think that's one of the most rediculous things I've heard. This year the seniors were gonna get water guns and spray everybody coming out into the parking lot, or pull the fire alarm and spray people coming out. They only pulled the fire alarm, which is no fun. I wouldn't have mind being wet cause of the heat.
England scored T.T
Monday's the last school day and then exams, I only have two, both on Wed.
Toy Story 3 Friday!

We'll always have Paris
God, I love Casablanca. It's an amazing movie. So is A Streetcare Named Desire. We watched both those in English, and I'm loving it! Now we just finished watching Cinderellaman and are starting the Patriot now, both good. I love movie days, hate working.
Let's see in History I've got to write a 6-8 page paper due on the 9th, and my topic is american enviromental issues. I think I should be able to get it done but who knows.
I can't wait for tomorrow, going on a field trip to an art meusem and then the biggest mall in our area, which has a two-story barns-and-noble. Plus we are going to gt AP assignments, not real good and I'm missing part of my favorite class, but I'm finding out if I get this one teacher I want.
Cut my hair on Sunday.
Got in a really small car accident on Friday. See the lanes in my nighborhood fit two cars, one going each way. And people decide to park on the side leaving room for only one car to pass by. So the car heading towards me decided to speed up and since I didn't want to hit them I tried to pull to the side, but since I was going th speed limit I couldn't stop that quickly and hit the car parked next to the road. They got a dent and scratched off paint, the car I was driving got the right side mirror broken and I got guilt.
But otherwise I've been good
