AHH!!! I The closer College deadlines seem; the more stressed I feel, the more I try and compile "the list" of where I want to go, and the less information the college sites seem to have on them.Stupid College...
Bleeehhhh..... Shoot me now. I think I'm going to school tommorrow. Just as I suspected, my mom suggested I clean my room if I was going to stay home. So I tidied up a little. Not enough really. I really need to clean but I've been feeling too icky to clean anything. U guys wanna come down and clean for me? heehee. Riiight... Where's the BFC when I can barely get into my room w/o falling over my junk? Oh well. It'll get done eventually. I usually have a pretty energetic mood after I've been ill. Come to think of it, I betcha I'll do a lot of cleaning around Renaissance Rally. Hum. I'm an odd duck.
Euh... I have so much I need to do this week and fate decides to punish me for procrastinating? It's not fair! (I love labyrinth! [ sara: It's not fair! Jareth: You say that so often- I wonder what you basis for comparison is?!] so true...) I hope econ went well today. I felt bad being absent and leaving Cassand[ra] to fend for herself. Well it wasn't that big of a deal. But still...
The one benefit of being sick is that I've surveyed our tea supplies and discovered just how lacking we are. We're down to a small box of green tea, another small box of Black India, a canister of Earl Grey, and a single bag of something miscellaneous! We don't even have the cunning little boxes of Apple Cinamon Herbal or cubed Sugar! It's shocking really. My herb garden has dwindled and our tea strainer broke in the dishwasher so there isn't even that to fall back on. I need to go shopping. I needed Chamomile or Jasmine last night... Well now I'm just rambling. I hope there isn't much hw today. I should start yesterdays, shouldn't I?

I love Pride and Prejudice!!! I am Elizabeth Bennet... Hahaha.... What If I thought I was? Like Puuj as Buffy? haha... Puuj... ut yeah. She's my favorite charactor in the whole wide world b/c she's like me. I'm reading online summaries b/c I don't have my own copy. Haha... Poor me... Oh well. I'm supposed to be doing Gov anyway.I love Frank Lloyd Wright sooooo much!! His houses were amazing. I want a book of them or something. Maybe when I'm grown up and eccentric I'll have one built in his style...
I finally found a template for my poetry blog that I like. I had to find something to take up the space meant for links tho. I'm holding firm on my stance of no linkage btwn my two blogs. Did you notice? I decided not to have any connection btwn the two besides the relation of the names.
I can't stop any of the other folks who decided to link me tho. I don't mind them. It's just a quirk that I don't want my pages to have any links on them. It seems to draw away from the page.
I want to go to the Huntington Gardens or the Arboretum and spread out a blanket on a grassy knoll with someone and read. Someone who appreciates reading. I would even do it alone, but it's nice to have company.
oooh... I need to work on my Winter Formal dress. I don't want to end up having to buy one... even if I do I'd still like to bring my idea to life. It's a really cool dress... I need a multi-layered flowing skirt though. In white. And ribbons in different shades of white. I wonder if it'll ever happen. It's just one of those things.

Do I have long posts or what!? I guess they're longer than most. I really wish people would comment. That way I feel less...um... ignored, and I actually have something to read sometimes. Don't worry, I'll post something interesting someday that is comment-worthy... Maybe.Ugh... I'm still sick. My neck hurts but my sore throat has mostly gone away. I'm just sore. I don't want to miss school tomorrow tho. I have to make sure at least ONE M.U.N. poster goes up. I want to try and sit in on as much of the Mock Trial meeting as possible- which will probably be very little if any. I have to take my math test even thought I have only the faintest idea of what were studying. I have a Key Club Board meeting and an M.U.N. meeting I think. I need to try and begin writing the opening with whoever I end up with. I need to help smooth out the yearbook spread templates. I have to turn in my english essay that I should be writing right now. Unfortunately I can't think right now b/c I'm blech feeling. I want to sleep.
Suprisingly I think going to the Ray Bradbury thing actually helped my cold some. I felt more energetic or something. The way Ray Bradbury talks (his words, not speech patterns) reminds me of my Granddad. Did I say that already? Maybe I did. We saw Ani there. In fact she sat right next to me. I was never close to her at Valley View (in fact I think she disliked me) so I didn't want to say Hi. We kept telling each other to say Hi but no one wanted to. Later when RJ and Lisa ( who bought two books[one for SCOTT!!] ) were getting in line to have their books signed we saw her and she waved and we pretended we hadn't seen her before when she was next to us and we looked all suprised and waved. Heehee... For some reason she remembered my CS Lewis phase and told me she thought of me whenever she read "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" and the first thought that come to my mind was "Crazy Stalker girl! And why are you reading that at your age!?" but I just smiled and said it was cool she remembered. She looked the same. Even her clothes.
What bothered me was the fact that she had a very new-looking leather khaki purse and she had an incubus cloth thing safety pinned to it. It looked strange. I was noticing that while she was sitting next to me. I was very bothered by the incongruity of that. I wanted to say something critical. I need to watch out with that.
