Greetings faithful readers - that is if I have any left. I know, I’ve been really awful with keeping this blog running lately, but I’m still here! (Whatever that is really worth)
I am writing this post from the car; I was watching Melrose Place but my laptop - which is both ghetto and evil - has started to skip the discs making it impossible to enjoy and unbearable to sit through. I’m sure that you are all laughing at the fact that I describe my laptop, a non living thing, as evil - but it’s true. Personally, I feel that it is just another obstacle I must overcome as I courageously fight my war against household appliances. Just the other day the ‘f’ key was not working and instead of typing just a single f, it ended up typing four, or perhaps I should say, ffffour. Of course, when I tried to delete the other three f’s, it treated the whole thing as a single entity. Naturally this occurred at the worst possible moment when I had to email a teacher to ask a favour, and as a result, I probably looked like a giant loser. Or as my sister would say, loserific. Of course, he probably expected nothing less. *eye twitches*
I’m kind of whiny right now, but that is what happens when you sit in a car for what seems like eternity. I swear, with every kilometre that goes by, I feel my soul dying a little bit. All car ride, no outside make me a dull girl … No, no, must not enter madness, must not enter madness … Ah, screw it. I think that I was already nuts for agreeing to drive up here - damn you self, why didn’t you fly like your parents wanted you to?!?!
Blah blah blabity blah blah. Really, there is no point to this post other than to attempt to express what I am feeling right now. I’ve never really been good at sharing my feelings with others, but I think right now it goes along the line of !@!)(#)&(@$!&#(&(!@.
Mofo. Mofo. Mofo.

Dear My Poor Neglected Blog,
It appears that you are too good for me, and that I have fallen back into my nasty habit of being just too gosh darned busy to pay any attention to you. I apologize for this sincerely, and hope that we will soon be reconciled.
Last week was the week after March break where I had several - ok, three - projects due. Naturally, being the procrastinator I am, I did not even begin these projects until, oh, Sunday night. As a result, about every night that week I went to bed at ... oh, the earliest was 1:00 am, and the latest, I'm pretty sure you don't want to know. That was a major time suck right there.
This week I have been gallivanting across the country, or the Eastern part of the country to be more exact, and have spent the better parts of my day trapped in a little silver sedan that is so leg-cramping that I want to pluck out all my eyebrows. On the plus side, these buckets of time that I have encountered have allowed me to rekindle my love with Melrose Place (the old fogey's version) and so far I am about 1/3 of the way through Season 2.
Yes, my dear blog, if you are guessing the reason that I am currently writing to you right now is because I am procrastinating, you know me too well. I should be writing something up for a teacher at my school, who I feel you should know, is not actually my teacher. Blurgh.
Blurgh. Blurgh. Blurgh. Is all I really have to say about that. Or about homework in general.
My dear blog, my time is dwindling and I feel that I should put the remainder of it to better use: ie. actually writing up what my mother thinks I am :). And with that, I say good-bye, hopefully not forever, but you never know when I am concerned.

Boredom = List-a-poolooza
Hey guys .. So I'm bored so I thought that I would post. But I don't feel the greatest and I definitely don't feel like typing out some long story so I am going to do something different - but don't worry, during my spare today, after doing some mind-numbing sociology homework, I wrote down like .. 10 blog ideas .. In like 5 minutes .. So the lack of story-telling lately is not because I don't have any stories, but more like I'm too lazy to put the effort in typing them out (I'm bad like that). Because lets face it, God help me if I ever run out of stories. Stories are like .. my life - seriously - I love telling them and they make me who I am, without a doubt.
If you read one of my earlier posts you know that I like making lists, if for no other reason, the idea that they make me seem accomplished (that could be faulty logic though). I thought that I would just list some of my favourite things to not only let you get to know me better, but so later in my life I can look back and reflect on how much I changed, or see how I didn't if that is the case.
I'll start with the biggest cliche on the planet, if not to just get it over with. (Note: all of these are in order starting with my most favouritest - I am aware that's not a word:D)
Favourite Movies
1. Shawshank Redemption (Brill movie, seriously, most people are a bit surprised when I tell them that but it's true, I love it - I especially love the warden's little round glasses that really emphasize his chubby cheeks)
2. Green Mile (I know he's like really old and everything but .. Tom Hanks was a dapper fellow, good actor - with the exception of the Da Vinci Code, but lets be honest, the script didn't give him a whole lot to work with; A monkey could have played his part. Dean was good looking and I don't think I can describe how much I hated Percy. The character development in this movie was very well done and I just like it)
3. Big Fish (It's about my favourite thing in the world: story-telling, need I say more?! Plus I think that Tim Burton is a creative genius)
4. Finding Neverland (Again, its about creating stories and letting imagination take you to places that you never would have dreamed about. Imagination, to me, is one of the best things to have in this life)
Biggest Pet Peeves
1. Socks and Sandals (This .. bothers me haha. What's even worse are those guys who have Birkenstocks, knee-high white socks, short shorts and a fanny pack - Com'on .. I think we all know the type of guys that I am talking about! Like really, would it hurt to crack open a fashion magazine? Or .. just look in a mirror and comprehend how stupid you look?)
2. People who walk slow when you have somewhere to be .. and you are late (I hate these people, yet I have to deal with them every day trying to sprint to my bus. I swear, I sometimes get so mad I have a strong desire to kick them in the legs. Don't worry! I don't actually kick them, I just walk really fast and huff at them).
3. Constant Chanel flipping
4. People who leave the milk completely empty in the fridge and don't change it.
5. People who hover
Books that will change your life
1. The Wealthy Barber (STRONGLY recommend .. It might be weird that a high school student has read and liked this book, but you can only benefit from it)
2. Harry Potter (Cliche I know, but again, it opens up the world of imagination to you)
3. Books written by me (Well .. Duh! They contain so much wisdom and knowledge .. In fact, I'm pretty sure that I'm nearing the point of where I discover the true purpose of life through my writing. I'm awesome, no really, I am. YOU MUST BUY A BOOK IF YOU SEE I WROTE IT! I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN IF YOU DON'T!)
Favourite Clothing Items
1. Shoes (I swear .. I have .. Borderline 50 pairs of shoes .. It is sooo bad. And I only wear like .. 10 of them regularly.)
2. Jackets
3. Socks (My feet are literal blocks of ice - socks help this)
Favourite Brands of Sunscreen (I had to throw this in!)
1. Coppertone(I love the smell of Coppertone)
2. No-Name (No really, they .. have amazing sunscreen)
3. Banana Boat
4. Neutrogena
**In the summer I literally don't leave the house without my sunscreen ... And I slather it on the minute I know I am going outside .. It doesn't even matter if I am only going out for 5 minutes .. I can not function without putting some on. You all might have thought the name of my blog was a joke .. But it's true .. I am a sunscreen addict**
Favourite Smells
1. Coppertone Sunscreen
2. Car AC
3. Campfires
4. Grass in the spring
5. Fall Mornings
6. Old books
Least Favourite Foods
1. Bananas
2. Hamburgers
3. Ketchup (Is that a food? It doesn't matter, I don't like it)
4. Tuna Casserole
5. Chicken Casserole
6. Hash-Brown Casserole
7. Really, any kind of casserole
8. Banana Bread
9. Meatloaf
10. Fish
11. Melon of any sort
12. I'm starting to think it would have been easier to list the foods I do like :P
Bad Habits
1. Procrastination (People, ahem - teachers, don't realize how bad I am at procrastinating. It is SO bad. I do .. major projects the night before, all the time. I have always done my ISPs the night before, especially English essays, my Writers Craft project, lab reports. I also don't study for tests OR EXAMS the night before too .. Even my monster biology exam last year, I didn't start till the night before. Honestly, it is amazing I get the marks that I do because ... Wow lol)
2. I crack my knuckles way too much
3. I don't pay attention as much as I should
4. I stay up way too late
5. I eat massive amounts of junk food
I'm tired now so I think that I am going to stop. Looking back, these lists were extremely random (but then again, do you expect anything less from me?).. I promise I will blog a story within the next couple of days after I sleep (aah .. sleep .. That's a concept that has been foreign to me this week).
I'll give you a preview: the title of the post will be "No woman you don't understand, I want to go to Tokyo!"
