Came back about 6 hours ago from Louisiana. @@;;;; Mom woke me up really early (NOTE: early for me is any time before 11:30 am) at 10 am on Friday and threw me into the car, and off we went around noon. ^^;;; I kind of had no idea where we were going at first until my mom blurted out that she wanted to go to a casino my aunt said was really good. cue mothra and kenny:
*groan* You woke us up early for THIS?
yeah. = =;;; But we let her have her fun. got there around 5:30 and took a good hour or so trying to find a hotel...= = everything was full because of the fourth of july festival stuff, and my mom didn't want to pay too much, so we landed a craptastic room in a craptastic area next to the loudest freeway on earth. NO sleep last night and kenny's a little cranky. Not to mention my shoulders hurt like heck, and we're about $220 poorer...
I'd say the worst part of it all has to be the buffet dinner we ate last night...I mean, $17.99 a PERSON? *twitch* I could eat the same stuff for 5 freakin 99 at Wok Bo or something.
*sighs* Oh well...got free coffee flavored ice cream, and that fried alligator was good. ;D

Hrm...I can't seem to find an image for a layout! . .;;; this isn't good. it used to be so easy before to find one, and now I'm struggling with it! x___x *sighs*
Had a horrible weekend. Nancy's quinceanera thing was 4 1/2 hours of wasted time, and even though I was sitting down the whole time, I came home tired. Talked to Omi a while and went to sleep at 2 am...woke up the next morning to find out that I had 2 hours to clean up the house because mothra had picked up a call from our realtors and were coming to inspect the house to give us a price for refinancement...= = was left pissed off since I couldn't go to Omi's house when I really wanted to. *shakes fist* Damn you, you giant beer-bellied moth! >__________________<
random time later
okay, I owe him $1.10 for all the IMs I sent Omi at the party through his cell phone...for 5 cents a message, it's not bad, considering I spent over an hour on AIM rambing away ^^;;; but he's making a big deal over it. *throws cat on him*

Feet still hurt since I got dragged out of bed yesterday and went off to astroworld with my family...and then it RAINED on us. *sighs* I couldn't even get on my favorite coasters! >___< eeeeeeevil rain...I beat my mom at a few mini games and managed to get mothra on a rollercoaster! xDDDDD His face after it ended was so funny...it was a giant scared to death type deadpan...he just jumped up and ran outside xDDD i forever laugh at yew, moth. *throws a mothball in his direction*

I would have done all four If I had the chance. >D Evil...children like those deserve to be punished badly. I mean, you spend like $20 of your hard-earned money for each person and deserve to watch a movie in peace, right? *shakes fist at stupid kids*
now, for the past four days, Kenny has been getting fried under the direct rays of the sun from 8-10 am at school. = =;;; I'm tiiiiiired. This year, under our new director, is going to be hard.
very hard. He's stressing getting us into top shape and getting perfect early...Kenny's feet hurt. Kenny is
still bad at slides (see
8/06/03 entry) and that dumb heel-arch-ball-toe thing. = = Even the fish are beating me at it. *sighs*
Yeah, well...at least the freshmen this year are hardworking. ^__^ To beat Austin's butt we goooo...
Car washes. I love them, but I hate doing advertising duty in front of Walmart's entrances. Why? You ask politely if they want their car washed or would care to donate to us, and they IGNORE YOU. = = At
least say no, people! >___< because then I'll start yelling at you...which I did a few times(it worked)...and if it looks like it's gonna rain, pay atttention to the direction of the wind and THEN make your decision. the wind was blowing the rain clouds AWAY. = =

The cruddy week continues as I find out I barely passed the TAKS exams and start to feel that my friends and I are drifting apart...*sighs* I don't know...it's been that way for a while.
nothing much has happened...just that I followed my mom to work and came back tiiired. x_x I didn't know being a secretary was so HARD. and it was all stuffy and crowded...@@ but I got BURGER KING! yaaaay xD
Now, school-wise...Don't know too much about how I fared on my algebra exam, but for some odd reason, I'm confident that I passed it. .___. I hope I did. repeating semesters isn't fun. and band is getting harder than ever. as said before, the music is crazy. haven't gotten around to working on it solo but I've somehow managed to get the songs stuck in my head xD veryvery interesting music..*nodnod*

Very worried about algebra exam tomorrow. the average grade last year on that test was a 52, and that does NOT mean I'm going to be able to pitifully crap through the test ; ; if I get any lower than a 70, I'm doomed. = = I
never had a head for mathematics. *sighs* and I think I got Omi a little frustrated; if not, more tired than she already was. all because I don't remember how to factor trinomials again... = = and we did that JUST last month. this memory is cruel to me.
yeah, so I almost flunked my geo test today as well. scraped by with a 75, not good. nopenope. since I was absent monday I missed a chance to go over the review with no way of being able to make it up. missed being able to go over the algebra review too. *sighs* man, am I going to hate myself in the future. this year
sucked.
I hope next year isn't the same...that is, if I make it through.
< ... >
*sighs* someone tell me what it is that's driving me crazy right now. someone tell me why the hell I was put in this world with this crappy memory, these unclear thoughts, the need to succeed but no biological urge to do so, this hell of a world where I haven't found anyone like me, with this dumb ability to sympathize with others and not able to do anything but be a mere bystander in this little TV drama that is "life". someone tell me why I'm here, and what I'm supposed to do...because all I see are people pulling ahead of me or falling behind, and no one at my current position, no one who I can reach out to for support, no one I can talk to at a personal level without fear of rejection.
someone tell me...someone who sees through these vague words and understands where I come from.

^___^ Saturday evening, I kinda planned out a way for all of us to visit
Omi's house! >D which we all did, waking up at 7 or so and leaving around noon, Ayan and Braddy in tow. Spent the whole afternoon there, rambling on mindlessly some more and watching Tackey & Tsubasa vids over subway (or, as Omi says, 'bway) sandwiches. ^^ it was a nice way to spend the afternoon...that is, until braddy's mom called us every 15 minutes or so until it ended up as a yelling spree because my mom hadn't shown up at 7, the time she was supposed to pick us up. = = people have no patience these days. and I dunno, but that might have contributed to the events of yesterday...
caught a bad case of a stomach virus. it was nastyyyy...*shudder* thank god it's over. I was kinda...blowing my guts out a lot. @@;;;
ended up missing my bio final yesterday so I had to get up earlier than usual to meet with my AP for a rescheduling date, and I forgot I had study hall fourth, so I ended up taking it today...didn't make the grade I wanted to, but oh well. I have a 90 as a final grade. ^_^ yay!

Kenny's tired, bored out of her mind, and currently ravaging the house for a diskette to no avail. Where did it goooo...
Well, the rest of the week passed by slowly, lead by failing yet another algebra test by a point, getting reviews mashed in my face, and then not completing them because I was tired. = = I hate my algebra review the most...too many problems requiring me to think for more than 20 seconds. LoL I'll get to it sometime before next Thursday...hopefully. (School needs to be over already. >_< it's taking way too long for this year to completely wind down. But then again, marching practices start right after school lets out... *sighs*) And then last night was the band banquet at school. I don't really know why I went...usually only the seniors get things. ^^; But since this was our current head director's last year, everyone went to wish him luck. ; ; I wish he didn't have to go...our new director looks very strict...= = but besides that, the food was good >D fajitas are always yummy.
Braddy was on the phone when I got home, and she wanted me to go over to her house... I was kind of tired, but I went anyway. Ayan was there until 11:30-ish and all we pretty much did was talk, read and sleep. ^^; not exactly amusing, but for some reason, the time passes by quickly...
well, I'm back home...last weekend of the school year and my cousin's 14th birthday. *slams head on desk* why exams...whyyyyy...

Otherwise, I missed my tryout because we ran out of time again and I was the next one to go
again >_< I want to get it over with already... It's good to stall it another day, but then the next day feels horrible because it's looming ahead of you. = = I just hope I at LEAST make the top of symphonic band. because if I make any lower, Kenny's gonna be mad.
Really mad. why? I'm already in the middle. = =
Well...the aftermath of my birthday wasn't all that great...still struggling along in algebra, being sickened by videos on childbirth in health, watching a movie with horrible off key singing in english, and a mass of tests and reviews. *sighs* I hate the last weeks of school. Oh well...school ends next week! w00t!! *falls over with cheesy grin on face*

And about that convo on msn last saturday...I did kind of pick up on that....*poke* but I wasn't sure and I didn't want to look like some sort of crazy dork if I had assumed wrong. ^^; (or,
more dorky...)
Day's going swell. No pennington on my back yelling at me for not turning in grammar work, no stress, barely any work...I wish all days were like this ; ; but I have double the algebra homework for missing 1st period yesterday due to SNS testing (which wasn't as hard as I thought...) = = I'm gonna need help. I hate radicals.
hrm...7th I
probably have tryouts...our teacher's been missing the past two days so everyone has had a chance to skip class and practice xD Scales aren't easy and the tryout music is difficult. scales are eeeeevil. especially when going to the third octaves in certain scales is mandatory...and then 8th we dissect PIGS! YAY! xDDDD I think we named ours Hamilton...corny, but ridiculously funny when you're tripped up on pixy crack and sprite remix, which is the way I get by the time 6th period ends...

May 10, 2004 random crapped up entry.
Aha...fun. concert sucked, as usual = = a certain group of 5 (I will not mention their names because I don't feel like taking the time to even type them out) decided to degrade the band
again by acting as if they had never been on a stage before...mainly by pulling on the curtains and not shutting up when the honor band was playing. We're not going to hear the end of it tomorrow since Mr. Beach glared at us in front of everyone in the audience on stage...*sighs* I think I should skip 7th period tomorrow to save my sanity.
Big fat mothra returned from his trip today...*sighs* and he's already pissing me off. it's sickening...literally. I'm getting dizzy and stuff. oO I can barely see the keyboard too. anyway, he's already starting to take over the computer by installing a bunch of crap and deleting some of my stuff, as well as messing with my customizations. I don't feel like switching back to the laptop... ; ; the laptop always overheats...Y____Y
damn you, moth. = =
well, lighter notes...since this anger's getting to me. I got my car yesterday and took it for a test drive...it runs pretty well for a 12 year old car ^^ except it was covered in at least 30 layers of dirt and grime, and the interior was as musty as mustiness can get. took me 2� hours to clean...it was HORRIBLE...>___<
anyway...band tryouts for next year's placement is tomorrow. life is going to suck. *sighs* and then my SNS test is Wednesday...
= = *bashes head on keyboard* there is nothing else to say...except for one thing. braddy, PLEASE tell me what's on your mind...it's distracting meeee. and I hate it when people arouse my curiosity and don't douse it...aka start something and don't finish it. so quit being so evil and tell me, damn it.

Princeter posed in front of it, then was dared to do something weird. He took it the wrong way and actually stripped off his shorta and shirt, then ran out of the orchestra room in his blue boxers and screamed "Look at me! I'm wearing blue boxers! Come catch meeee" for a good five minutes in the parking lot. xDDD I thought I was going to die from the lack of air from laughing...

Kenny's back from Corpus! xD Kind of late, I know, but it was all good. ^^;; Took a break because I came back tired. Three hour drives aren't really fun when everyone's asleep.
I've never really eaten at a Whataburger before...(so sad) So Friday, after being about three minutes inside the city limits, we stopped by at that famous two story one by the sea... it was phun until all the seabirds started surrounding us. o_o We kinda had to abandon our food and get the hell out of there before bird shit landed on us. x_x eh, the food was good. but those chicken fingers can't compare to those from Arby's. >D
errr...After that, we stopped by the Texas State Aquarium...I wish it was longer. the exhibits are huge but there's only a small number of them. = = very spiffy. and here comes the irony - for dinner we ate at Landry's...learn about seafood first, then eat it! xDDD the butterfly shrimp was
gooood...I mean it...@�@ and then we checked into the hotel. pretty view (girls were on the 8th floor) but all it was was an inside view of the city. the girls to the left of us had a beautiful view of the ocean. ; ; Saturday morning's view of the sea was pretty too...T_T
One of our roommates was an unexpected one since a certain someone didn't sign Jacque up...*koffkoff* oh well...*patpat* she was very obnoxious and kept us up till 3 am the first night. = = babysitting people
your own age is not a very nice thing to do. she wasn't present in the room when our chaperone was checking up on us, she was never there at roll call so I had to go get her (I was the leader in our group
= =) and she lost one of the hotel's keys. *sighs* did I mention the phone calls we got in the middle of the night?
besides that. Saturday started out with the fore-mentioned beautiful view of the sea, running around since the alarm didn't go off, wolfing down breakfast and rambling on about the prank calls the 7th and 8th floors got and being disgusted by someone on the 7th floor making...disturbing sounds. *shudder* took the elvator, got dressed, rand down to the buses and took off to the music festival. heh, we didn't know it was even a music festival/contest thingy until we got there. = =
performance went better than expected, and for once we got the same scores as the honor band! o_O;;; 1,1,2's...and another patch to slap on my letterjacket when I get it! xD and while we were there (we played at the Selena Auditorium, btw) the storm that was supposed to roar in crashed through the area. we were under tornado watch practically the whole afternoon... and since the auditorium was about 1/4 a mile inland, the waves were actually reaching the doors >.> to give an example, the winds were so strong that when one of the band members of a band from Jersey Village opened the door, 1) a mini tornado formed inside 2) papers were blown up to the third floor 3) it got WET 5) it took a while to close the door... = =
and the rain flooded funtrackers...a racing place we were supposed to go to. we went to the mall instead. >D got GetBackers vol.1 and a set of Tarot cards to replace the ones I gave to Omittchi. ^^
ah, the best part of the trip~! ^^ this is going to stay in my mind for a while...when we returned from the mall, everyone was excited because the hotel had given us a place to hang out in after curfew (see, the night before, everyone was down in the lobby, but the second it hit like 10 pm, everyone was rudely kicked out and sent to their rooms because there was some unheard of rule that anyone under the age of 18 could not be in the lobby after 10. *sighs* bastards) and we were all going to party, you know? xD;; we were all carrying bags with our dresses and tuxes and any other random things, like the merchandise we bought from the mall or purses and stuff. the elevators are the slowest thing on earth in that hotel (it takes at least 5-7 frickin minutes for the elevators to get to the floor! >_<) and since the front of the elevators was already crowded with masses of band nerds and returning guests, many of us decided to take the 8 flights of stairs up to the 7th and 8th floors.
now, I'm not really
sure how many stairs equals a flight, but those stairs were in groups of 2 per floor, so it was 16 rounds of stairs going around in circles. = = look, it's NOT EASY to walk up those stairs. by the third floor, your legs go numb and you can barely support your weight. and since we were carrying all that stuff, it was worse! >_< and now, the best part! *drumroll* I was 2 steps away from the door of the 8th floor when I think Leah screamed and the fire alarm went off. ah, poor kenny and 80% of the band
flew our asses down those 16 groups of stairs and out the door, my cd player rattling off an actual theme song to it the whole time xD it was like something out of a movie...people yelling and screaming the whole way down and out the doors. the place had like the smell of plastic burning and stuff. the fire department got there, and the band nerds clad in our flourescent orange band shirts were sitting, shivering, scared and tired, in the parking lot, confused and worried. =_= it was so cool yet so depressing. my knees are sore from the over exertion. x_x
well, they herded us off into the buses and hung out for an hour or so watching Miss Congeniality. xD and the outcome? turns out there really was a fire on the fifth floor. someone threw something in a trash can (not a cigarette though) and it caught fire. a trash can, half a door, a wall and a piece of the cieling were the only casualties. ^^; thank god it didn't burn down...@@;;; we were all disappointed since we were sent directly to our rooms, but oh well. it was cool. xDDD best thing since Fega screaming his ass off in the bus's toilet last October.
sunday...sunday was all nice and sunny, but nothing really happened. just loaded the buses and went home, everyone asleep and Shrek playing on the TVs. ^^ it was fun while it lasted.
Now, on to Marching Season #2! >D

Something odd though...straight 2s in sightreading oO me thinks the judges were just being evil because they couldn't sleep in or something. *shrug*
Weekend's being uneventful as usual with the 3 day rainout that's still continuing... = = I like the rain, but when it's thundering outside and you're busy on the comp, it's not a good thing...the lights went out this morning and it killed the avatar I was working. Luckily I saved it. xD

Life's slowly going through a turning point for me...yeah, one for the worse, in a way. Mom's in the hospital and Dad's working overtime way too much, mothra's not at home, I can't help them (I'm old enough for a job...LET ME WORK ;_;), currently being used as a medium to break up a relationship, tone-deaf assholes are trying to murder me in 5th period, I'm getting squished out of people's lives by real life/other people intruding and the only person I can really talk to has now fallen into (for the third time) non-speaking terms with me.
Anyone who has been keeping track of this blog should know who it is...*sighs*
and then there's a bunch of other shit too, but then my list of problems will bore you all. Omi, if you don't want to talk to me, it's okay, because I guess I can somehow move on without you (I have experience now, look at today and yesterday!) and I don't want to turn this into some hate message towards you, so I guess I'll just leave it at that. I'm still alive though, so if you want to break this non-talking streak, sure. we all go through things like this at least 30,000 times in our lives.
Braddy, I have no idea why you're being so mean to Daniel. He's really nice >_< and I REALLY didn't like it when you were yelling at him and turned to me and talked to me normally as if it were nothing. = = He's going through some emotional crap at the moment and I don't think you're helping...friends, even ones you don't want to see anymore, shouldn't be cast aside so quickly.
oh blehhh...I'd rant on more, but I'm not really in the mood..too many things going by so quickly and I have to get used to it all. right now, all I'm worying about is my family and myself...CTS has gotten worse yet again, both wrists giving me pain, and the meds are giving me headaches. = = I'll go now... = =

Funfunfun. Kenny went to the doctor last Monday to figure out why her wrists are hurting, and it turns out I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Fun, eh? I'm stuck on pills for a week or so. *sighs* I'm not even supposed to be on the computer or play my instrument or anything involving strenous activity with my wrists...and look, here I am anyway. xD I can't live without my computer... *glomps comp*
anyway, pre UIL was today. lots of trouble arose when I tried on my concert dress and it was TOO BIG @@ so kenken went into freak-out mode (since we only had 20 minutes to get ready) and ran down to the choir room's closet in search of another dress...I couldn't find one until one of the band moms came by and found one xD;;; With the help of safety pins and duct tape we did some 5 minute crap hemming, since the end of the dress was about a foot too long. after that little shock, not much happened afterward... we made a 2,2,3 on stage (okay...still not good though) and watched the honor band play. then mused about one of the judges looking suspiciously identical to Colonel Sanders. oO and then we counted cars on a train , and then we looked at cars, and then we made fun of Mr. Vassell's non existent rims--
...umm...well...*aherm* I got home around 7 and instantaneously got a headache. *sighs* kenny wants to sleep...
