So I'm doing all my college applications and have come across one of the most amazing essay topics ever:
If all of ACME’s products backfire, why does Wile E. Coyote keep buying them? (Any responses that include the word “because” will spontaneously combust!)
Yeah, so I'm deffinetly going to do that one.
So this Friday's gonna be busy, I'm ditching school to see the midnight showing of Harry Potter and I'm goin to CNU for an interview, so I'm excited and nervous all at the same time.
I watched Avalon High Friday, the book was so much better. It seriously just killed the book, as always.
Um, who wants to read my Monty Python essay?
11/11/10
So If I Could Only Listen to 2 Bands the Rest of My Life, Currently it Would Be Mumford and Sons and Thriving Ivory, How 'Bout You?
So since there is no school today I think I'm gonna do all the school work I've gotten behind on, such as two three page papers that were due midnight of last night. I figure the penalty won't be that bad, actually more like I don't care about the penelty.
Anyways, another thing I've gotta do over this four day break is edit my essay for CNU, which is due the 15th, so I'm thinking I should do that first. My essay is about Monty Python, go figure
Oh, I think I forgot to metioN HOW I got censored from the newspaper, cause my article would "stir up contradictions amoungst parents". I thought it was imensly funny, and concluded that I am a real journalist now that I've been censored. I mean, it was just about how the federal government has the need to file us all under some race or ethnicity and you apparently have no ethnicity if you aren't hispanic or latino. All in all, the federal government is just over stepping it's boundaries yet again. ....... I've been totally corupted by my AP Gov teacher, I mean, when have I ever cared or even known about the federal government's boundaries
ummmm, I wanna type something interesting, but I really can't think of anything. Though I believe my typing speed has increased as my thinking proccess has slowed.
My step-dad has already put up Christmas lights, so I figure if the lights are up I can sing my carols, but I'm only singing them now cause it's something to sing that I have implanted in my head.
Speaking of songs, I've had Bohemien Rhapsody stuck in my head for like ever, pardon the total teenage girly-ness wording. But sadly my ipod has a greatest hit cd of Queen's that desn't have Bohemien Rhapsody, or Under Pressure, so I've already denounced this cd.
Pumpkin bread with a small bit of Nutella is heaven, just saying
My astronomy teacher, a total Star Wars geek, had us watching bits of Star trek yesterday, it was probably the lamest fight scene there ever was. I swear to God, whatever guy was in the costume as an alien was laughing his head off all the while.
But it's all good cause despite my grade, I love astronomy, or more like I just love talking about aliens all class. But it inspired a new story idea: an alien comes down to Earth, but since they look exactly the same as us we put them in a psych ward, which actually seems plausable, huh?
Watching music videos on VH1 is fun and all untill they repeat the same song more than a couple of times. But at least its music videos, which was the original purpose of the station
uhhhh, yeah I think I'm done with rambling for now

Hi! Sorry I've Been Gone So Long, But You Know What They Say...That's Life
Yeah so, I don't really know. Life's been life, what else can I say?
Schools going just as slow as I expected, I mean it is senior year, so I figured it'd go by as slow as possible. There's not much to really talk about, I'm the person that just listens to the gossip on the sidelines, and if it's about some one I know I go to them, but it's never about me. So I don't really have any drama to talk about.
Ummmm, uhhhh, I got accepted for my senior project, I don't remember if I've gone all out to explain it or not but the basic thing is I'm gonna write a fictional book on what the Water Wars are gonne be like, so now the thing to do is actually start working on it. However it just seems like I'm either doing homework, staying after school for some activity or another, or sleeping. So I figure I'll work on it a whole lot more during break.
Ummmmmm, for Halloween I went to visit my dad in Kentucky. They had a little Halloween party, age ranges 30 and up or 10 and under, so I didn't really fit in. I just sat by the fireplace reading Wuthering Heights, which I left there, and got told I looked like a statue a couple of times, once they thought I was Mary, go figure?
So when I was in Kentuck I had KFC and in Philly I got a cheese stake, officializing my goobness.
My senior quote is: Life is full of can'ts: Can't wait to get here, can't believe you're here, and can't wait to move on.

Hmmm...instead of some meaningful stuff I think I'd rather rant about school
Right so school started Tuesday. My first class is AP Gov, with THE teacher to have in our school. He is SO energetic, it brightens my morning. The first class he jumped up on the desk like three times, you can't NOT smile in that class. So despite the fact that I'm not big on government and all that jazz, I'm still psyched to be in the class.
After Gov, I have AP English, which is alright, most of the people I know I'm not really close to and the others I know are the goofy popular kids that joke around, which is ok, i know that there not limited to that, its just I don't know them all that well. But the teacher is pretty chill.
Then it's Latin, and it's not the same monty python loving rambly teacher I had last year, its some strict old lady that has killed my love of Latin. Though she is a writer, so it might work out in the end, but already two classes of homework I'm not to sure about that.
And the last class of my a-days, is journalism. And I LOVE it!!! The teacher is amazing and flexable and all and seemed to understand what I was talking about when I said I liked Monty Python for the ice breaker thing we did. The girl I sit next to is pretty cool too. Plus I think I already got a story I could write about, but I'll talk about it when I get to my bus ride.
Anyways the next day are b-days, and my first class of this set is AP Psych, and this is yet another class that the teacher is so amazing and wonderful that my mornings will never be dull. He's talkative and brings everybody into his analysises and stuff like that, plus the fist day he put on some random 60s music to lighten up the mood. In addition to his just amazing-ness, some people apparently turned in their notes but they got lost, and he asked me, since my notes were just SO good, if he could give a copy to those students, well of course I said yes, I mean, flattery will get you almost anywhere
So after that is Astronomy, and my teacher is a big Star Wars geek, which suits me just fine. Plus he seems really open to all the ideas and conspiracies out there, like aliens, not really certain of it but not completely against it either, just like me. Plus who doesnt like looking at pretty stars XP
And after that is Math Analysis...with the well known demon teacher of my school. I had her before and survived, so I just gotta do the same this year. Luckily one of my good friends sits pretty close to me and is hlepless in math so that I go and help her. So I think I might survive this
Last but not leats is my Global Connections class, the only purpose being the project that will let me graduate from the academy, that has to have some globl connection and all that jazz. The bright side is that everyone in this class has been together since freshman year as the group within the school thats in the academy. Plus the teachers alright, very sarcastic, we all had him freshman year so we sorta know each other, he's the one that made us play this silly game where there was an attempted assasination on me, and when that didn't work I got married off.
Overall I think this years gonna be great, there are only two class I don't get a real good vibe about, and they aren't on the same day, so it should be good.
On to my after school bus ride, over an hour of us just talking loudly. We just talk about whatevers on our minds, and one time we ended up having this long and deep conversation about the ethnic sheet we had to fill out and why it mattered and the point of hispanics having their own box. This inspired me to start and article about it and the perspectives of the students and the purpose of the department heads. But otherwise we just talk about random stuff on the bus, its fun though, minus walking home

Dear Dora, Please for the sake of my sanity, run away from home or something. Please!
So on my birthday I had banned Dora and Caillou, though Blue's Clues was acceptable, as long as it was Steve.
On that note, I got Steve Burns CD, Songs for Dustmites, amazing, Steve is a genius and I want him to go on tour so I can see him in concert and force him to sign my CD. Also got a Juanes CD, Juanes is a Colombian singer, y es muy guapo. His voice his amazing though, even if your not looking at his face. I'm in love with his voice, and his music is really symbolic, at least the parts that I can translate.
I've been in a major play mode, which is good cause I got A Streetcar Named Desire, the script that is so much more than the movie, though its hard to get enough of Brando.
Yesterday I watched WALL-E for the first time, and it was real cute despite the dialogue lack. But it made me want to try and make a movie without any dialogue that can still hold today's audience. After WALL-E I watched Casablanca, another b-day present, and was just as amazing as always. On the subject of movies, I just finished watching The Book of Eli, the plot was good, the effects were amazing, though I'm not a good judge, the acting seemed good, but some home it was still missing something. Like I wasn't really captivated, I was still sitting on my couch watching the movie, rather than watching it from the sidelines of the world the movie created. It was rather disappointing,this was exactly the kind of movie I would have liked.
In other news I should be getting my schedule the 28th-ish. My last high school schedule, I can't wait!!!
Psych notes are very boring, the section on sleep made me want a nap after every word, the section on hypnosis put me in a sort of daze, and I have a feeling the section about drugs is gonna give me a headache that'll force me to take advil. Kinda ironic, huh?
Gosh, I feel the only real substantial thing in this post is the stuff I rambled on about The Book of Eli. I promise I will write more stuff that are 'comment worthy'

Woke up in the mornin' feelin' like ... watchin' Rocko's Modern Life and Rugrats
I'm such a child at heart. I woke up at three this morning to watch Rocko's Modern Life, then Rugrats, then Blue's Clues. Saturday morning cartoons come on a bit to early for me, but I was originally gonna get up at two, so I did sleep in a bit. Though it wasn't such a good idea considering I went to sleep around 11-ish last night.
Other news, I finally finished Cuckoo's Nest and watched one of the movies. So now all I have to do is finish analyzing symbols and come up with some themes and motifs and that junk, then write 5 reading logs, one of which will be about the movie and how much the story-line changed, especially the fact that McMurphy didn't have red hair. Though the three main actors were pretty good, except for the hair color thing.
After I get all that done I get to move on to Psych notes! And I actually am kinda excited for that, but still don't wanna do it at the same time.
Apparently I'm not allowed to go stag for prom. We had gone to the mall and as per tradition, I had to drag everybody in Jessica McClintoc's, I have a very strong feeling I spelt that horribly wrong though, but this shop is well know as far as name brands go, of course we only went there after the carousel. Anyways for some reason or another I have it stuck in my head that my prom dress needs to be red, so while we were looking my mom informed me that I had to find a date to prom, not sure how that's gonna work out though.

I saw two rocks happily married
Am watching Sayonara, and loving it!!! But sadly the movie keeps skipping. Either way the movie is epic, I understand the culture stuff and some of the Japanese, plus watching Marlon Brando try to pronounce all the Japanese words is histerical!!!
Other than that I watched a Hitstory of the World Part One, and am thinking I should take up the challange of making Part Three.
Hmm, I also watched Pretty Little Liars, a girly drama show that sucks you in so that you can't not watch it. But every time I watch it, I'm reminded of something my history teacher said, "Secrets, secrets are no fun. Secrets, secrets hurt someone." Funny how little, childish sayings can be really relevant to life as a whole.
Trying to write an essay for MMC, and am finding it difficult to pick a topic, though I think it might end up being Monty Python, seeing as it is a liberal arts school and one of the suggested topics is pick your favorite film and discuss it, and of course my fav is the Holy Grail.

OH MY GOOD GOLLY GOD!!! GUESS WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Today is my 'Men's Shirts, Short Skirts' Day. Though I'm kinda cheating by wearing a skort, but I don't think Shinia will mind much. But I also straightened my hair and put on my hat backwards so it looks like a baree(sp? the french hat thingy?). Point is I feel like a poet. XP
Despite my poet feelingness nothing much as happened today. Watched Blue's Clues, read manga, read OFOTCN, and watched House.

Yep, Ya-huh, Yeah, Sure, Alright
I'm in love!!! With my new pair of jeans that our perfect in everyway a pain of jeans can be perfect. Plus they were six bucks, originally thirty somethin'. I can't wait for September, when it's cool enough for me to wear my beloved jeans.
Trying to read OFOTCN but its weird and I can't seem to get into it. Hopefully Once I read a little more I can get through it. Sadly out of all the books we're supposedly going to read this year, this is the only book I can't get the audio copy for.
-sigh- My summer always seems rather uneventful. Am hoping to go see Sorcerer's Apprentice soon and get my four-leaf clover from Ireland XP
Anyways I should get to reading my novel seeing as I can't have someone read it to me
