Picture Me This, Picture me That, Picture Me Dipptidy DEE!!!

Well, I'm gonna do some pictures today...hence the strange post title....  Anyway...let's start with my outfit today.  I know I haven't done that many pictures lately, because of the crashed computer, but today...yeah....
I present to you...my outfit!

Full view of the outfit in all it's interesting glory.

The "skirt" is actually a sleeveless open back dress, that I would feel horribly insecure in if I didn't wear something over/under it.  I got it at the local thrift store.  As for the shirt that's been worn over it, I got that for free at my school.  The socks I got at WalMart, and yes, I am quite aware that they don't match.  You may be interested in knowing that I also don't care that they don't match.  The headband I made.  I made it out of ducttape and two hair band thingys.

Just another picture of the outfit.  It may interest you to know that I bought the dress because it was all hypnotical and stuff.  CRAZY!  Psychedelic and stuff.  I love it.

I moved outside.  And no, I'm not wearing shoes.  I'm at my grandparents, and I rollerbladed over there, and didn't take shoes.

You can't tell me what to do.  I will just look off to the side, and ignore you.

And that's my outfit.  I mentioned my field trip, did I not?  Well, it may interest you to know that my friend Gavyn and I fight like cats and dogs...so this picture was the perfect description of our "relationship."

Now don't we look like best friends?

Me standing underneath an elephant head on our field trip.

This statue thingy just enchanted me...so I took a picture of it.

I'm sitting in a chair...kinda sprawled out.

The inside of an oil drillers kitchen...I think....  The pies aren't real though, so I don't get to eat them :'(

I mostly took this picture for the horses.  I'm bigger on swords and horses than guns.

This picture was definitely intended for the horse, 'cause there's nothing else in the picture xD

AIRPLANE!!!  Yeah...I'm done with the field trip pictures now.

Actually...I think I'm just plain old done for now.  I guess I'll talk to my awesome readers next time I talk to them...wow that sounded super stupid.

Oh and check out the blogs on the side of my posts and stuff...I'm loving Fresh Modesty.

For Lack of a Better Phrase: "I DO NOT LIKE SCIENCE PROJECTS!"

Have you ever felt alone?  Discouraged?  Sad?  Like shooting all science projects?  Well...I know that feeling.  I do not like my science project.  It's mean to me, and the computer won't print the stuff I need printed.  Even more reason to say my science project is mean to me.  Super duper mean.  It hates the ground I walk upon, and my guts.  Well, that's what it feels like anyway.  And while you may say that if I would just quit blogging, and get to work, I must reply, "I would have nothing to do if I quit blogging, because if I quit blogging I would be sititing here in frustration--more than what I already am-- awaiting the moment when my grandpa will be done assisting my mother in her project--not science--and find it in his heart to assist me."  Do you see my reason for blogging?
Yes you do.  Good
So.  I had my first field trip of the year this past Friday.  Pretty awesome, and me, AND my classmates, AND our teacher survived.  It seriously surprised me.  Especially the fact that my classmates didn't have a stinky farting contest, or attempt to play freeze out, or take my food--they probably knew I would bite them--or take my phone--which is actually my mom's--or be so extremely rowdy.  They were still rowdy, and it was super loud on the way there, and the way back, but it wasn't too bad.  I see myself both longing to go on another field trip with them, yet being glad that there won't be another field trip until probably next year.  Good yes?
I seriously just wish my printer would print!
Okay, back to the field trip.  It was to Wolaroc, the trader's encampment, and there were knives, and hatchets, and ooooooooh....I loved it.  I got a knife, and it's awesome.  I'll have to get pictures, but I make absolutely no promises.  I have learned that it's better to just not promise than it is to make a promise you aren't sure you can keep.  Bro. Todd said that they would leave me with the mountain men, and when we were done there, I probably would have taken him up on his offer if my mom would have been there too.  A my bunny.  And my kitties.
Speaking of kitties, my kitty Ducky had her babies!  I have grandchildren!  (probably the only ones that I will ever have as I have decided to become a protestant nun.  I know I've said that many times, and I will probably say it many times more, and all that, but seriously.  One of these days I will actually follow through. I mean, it's not like I have to live a life of solitude.  I just have to not get married.
If any of you guys are praying people, and if any of you think about it, could you find it in your hearts to pray for me and my friend.  We're having trouble in geography....
BOOM!!!  Big clap of thunder.
If I place with my science project, I think I'm gonna laugh.  Do you know how hard I've worked on it?  Not very hard.  Just as hard as I have to.  I don't like science projects!  I just don't!  They annoy me so much!  GAH!
My back is itchy.  Are your guys' backs itchy?
Okay, never mind.  Time for me to go yell at the stupid printer!!!

Didja Miss Me?

Well, didja miss me?  I know, I've been gone for a long time!  I'm probably gonna disappear again later on.
So, I guess it's time for me to catch y'all up on my life, huh?

School News!!!

So, in English we've been working on these persuasive papers...I don't like them...to convince people (by using facts) what swallowed Jonah.  I do not like it.  It is annoying.  It is time consuming.  It's slightly confusing.  I doth not like it a bit.  Grr.  Yes, I did say grr.  Deal with it.

In Science, we've mostly been working out of our books, and planning for the science fair, (Which I am not thrilled about) with a ton of crazy hecticness from my classmates.

History--We've been working out of our books, which we've almost finished!  Woo Hoo!!!  Soon there will be no more History.  Of course after that we'll have to pick a country, and make a...paper?  Or maybe a power point, I'm not sure which, about it.  I've chosen to do Lesotho.  I don't know why, but I've always had an inkling toward that country.  It's a little country in the middle of South Africa.  I like it, but I don't know how.  We're also working on maps, ya know, putting the names and capitals on a blank map.  We're doing a world map!  I both like, and dislike maps.  It's confusing, I know.

Bible--Well...biblical stuff....

Journalism--I'm almost done with all my pages!  I just have to super scold Joe.  CRUD!  Crud a thousand times over!!!  I forgot to get Joe's number!  CRUD!  One moment while I quit crudding and see if Darrell is on to get Joe's number from.  No Darrell, but there's Bethany...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.  Shoot me, kay?  YES I GOT HIS NUMBER!!!  (I need to get certain pics of/from him for Journalism)

Choir--We're practicing for the Spring/Easter Program with the Speech and Drama people, and I have a solo/duet in the play thingy!  WOO HOO!  Awesome fun, no?

All that awesome stuffehz....

It was recently my principal's birthday, so for Chapel/Assembly we threw him a surprise birthday, and there was cake!!!  I love cake!  So, anyway, I'm gonna tell a story I find awesome, and funny, so if any of the school board is reading this, don't go complaining to Bro. Brewer, because of what the only Freshman girl said about her classmates, okay?  I find it funny, so my classmates do not need to get into trouble.  *bangs head* people often want to go saying things that don't even involve them.  So...um...anyway, I had my cake, and my classmates Corgan, and Travis had their own cake, and I sat down, because it's hard to eat cake while standing.

Travis sat in the closest available seat, which happened to be next to me, and began to eat his cake.  Corgan stood behind us, and began to eat his cake.  (All the cake was very yummy by the way, if you care to know little things like that)  Everything was fine for a little while, then from behind comes this fork, and sinks itself into Travis' cake.  NOT Travis' fork either!  So he fends off Corgan, while the whole time Corgan is saying to make sure no one got cake crumbs or punch on his suit.  Seriously?  Finally, Travis gets tired of all this attempted cake theft, and moved way over by the wall.  I was close to the center.  Corgan decides to sit down in the closest available seat, which happened to be next to me.  All was well and good for well...about two minutes, then a fork darts out!  NOT MY FORK!  And it lodged itself IN MY CAKE!  So...I elbowed Corgan and somehow some punch (whether mine or his, I don't know) spilled...and got on his suit...and my skirt.  He threw a bit of a fit (and I didn't see him again till our next class) but I was chill.

Also...NEVER read Song of Solomon in my class.  I don't care if you are an awesome senior.  Just don't read it aloud.  My classmates are pervs....

I think that's all my school news :p

Me News!!!

In a way I guess all my news is "me news," but...well it's still different.  My church has been having revival...well, not now, but it was the past week.  Bro. Elmore was the speaker, and man, I think he's my favorite speaker, because he's got this awesome animated, crazy insane awesome way of preaching.  He can tell stories and stuff, but he always keeps it biblical, and he pretty much always gets his point across.  Plus his family are awesome singers.  It's like bluegrass I think.  I like that style.  Well, actually, I like every style...but...yeah.  Well...I don't like rap.

I've been doing a bit of sewing!  I don't have pictures *sad face* but I took some shirts (long sleeved button up) and cut part of the bottom off, and part of the sleeves, then I took some extra cloth, and made a flowy bottom on it, and long flowy sleeves.  I love it.  Well, them, I made two.  And a matching skirt for one of them!  I have a belt that goes awesome with the style that I've got, so I wear it.  It's a wide belt, with a cowboy like buckle.  I like it.  I already said that didn't I?

Anyway...I guess I had more school news than me news...so I suppose I'll draw this to a close.
