Well, now that school will be starting, I just thought I would try to make my life a little easier by eliminating some unnecessary things. I am talking about my quotation blog. Do you want me to keep it, or should I just abandon it? It all depends on whether or not you read it. I will keep it if you want me to. Just leave a comment telling me whether or not I should keep it or abandon it.
Well, I was going to post more, but I am off to bed. I'll talk more later. I work in casual dining from 1-9 tomorrow. Feel free to come and visit me.

End of Summer Drama?
Well, this is probably not going to be a long post because I am tired. Lately, I have noticed a lot of drama between friends. Is it end-of-summer drama? You know, kinda like end-of-schoolyear drama? Just an observation.
Well, I am officially ready for school: mentally and physically. I got lots of new school clothes, and all my supplies. Plus, I am ready for the stress of the senior year. It'll be a fun experience.
I have been working lately, and tonight I am going over to Chase's house tonight for the party for the people who helped him move into his new house. Yay! My parents just left for camping. They get back on Sunday. This weekend, I hope to get my laundry done...yeah, we'll see if that actually happens.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. I got a haircut today after work. It's much shorter. I haven't decided if I like it yet. Only time will tell.
Well, I don't want to type anymore, so I will just leave you some words for thought from my Mom's "Women's Thought of the Day Calendar".
"Longing for things to be different clearly means that we are not accepting them as they are."
Wow, very true....

Friend or Fake?
I bet you are wondering what that title means...well, maybe you are not. Well, it's very simple. Sometimes I wish there was a way to tell whether someone is your true friend or if they are just faking it. Even though they may act like your friend, and do all the things that a true friend would, they just are missing one thing. What is it? I have no clue, but it holds the essence of friendship. So, until I figure everyone out, I am just going to keep smiling and moving on with life. Oh yeah, If you are in "The Core" you are already figured out, so don't worry.
Moving on... Today was an average summer day. Geoff screamed obscenities out the window. I drove everyone around. Craig, Geoff, and I played video games. Well, Geoff played them. I watched. Kyle, Geoff, and I drove to Renner to return "Signs" to Pam Degelau. She wasn't home so we put it in her mailbox, and put a note on it. Then, we went back to Craig's house.
At Craig's house, Geoff, Chase, Craig, Kyle, Aaron, and I were going to watch "Resident Evil." We were really looking forward to watching it, since we had went to all the trouble of going to Geoff's brother's apartment to borrow it. Tonight was a test of my nerves. I really am proud of myself. I didn't say the things that were on my mind. I let others do the blatantness. Geoff and I held strong....well, I did. I quickly left Craig's after the movie. And, if it looked like I was avoiding something...you're right. I left and played my much needed, happy song. Thank you, Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. On my way home, I saw Hale and Lindsey Bruse. I asked if they wanted to hang out, but Hale had to be home at 11. Ha, I laugh at you minors. Ha. When I walked into the door of my house, my family was there. Pleasant people to be with compared to my other option. I talked to my mom and dad. We had a small argument, but that is to be expected when you don't see each other for days upon end, and you live in the same house.
Tomorrow is an exciting day in my household. We are getting a new oven! Yes, it may seem like nothing to some people whose parents seem to have money flowing out of the faucet of their homes, but to my parents, it is an exciting change. We have lived in the house for 17 years. For that whole time, we used the stove that came with the house. An ugly, brown, gas-leaking stove. And, the other day, my dad came home and said that we were getting a brand-new gas stove. I am so excited. I am so excited about it, I am going to leave you the link to it. Maytag Gemini
Love and hugs.

You Can't Stop the Beat...literally
Well, I am sitting her at 3:24AM, and I don't want to go to sleep yet. Yesterday was the Show Choir retreat, which fully charged up my enthusiasm for the school year to start. I can't stop singing the songs. Plus, my mind seems to be only on show choir lately. I heard "Footloose" at work, and it gave me this warm feeling. It was the feeling you get when you find out that your crush likes you back. Or, when you know that everything will be alright. Overall, it made my day so much better.
Geoff and I spoke on the phone last night. It was a good talk. We talked about people and the usual, stupid things they do. Some people never learn. But, I love them anyway.
Well, I am going to go to bed. Or, maybe I will continue watching TechTV? Who knows. There is more I want to say, but then again, I don't want to say it. (I am adapting like the Borgs from Star Trek, and trying to better myself. ((Which means, not being blatant....well, no being as blatant.))) Love and hugs.

Quotes
I was reading Chase's blog, and I heard him say how his blog was his comfort. I find some comfort in my blog, but lately, I have been finding comfort in quotes. If I don't like the quote, and I don't get any comfort from it, I can just brush it off saying, "The author is too cynical." But, then I find a quote that gives me comfort. It is just what I want to hear.
AND, SPEAKING OF QUOTES, I JUST UPDATE MY QUOTATION BLOG. YOU CAN FIND THE LINK TO IT ON THE RIGHT OF THE PAGE IN THE LINKS. PLEASE CHECK IT OUT AND MAYBE EVEN MAKE SOME COMMENTS ON IT.
So, I am going to go to bed. Actually, I am just going to read some more from 1984 by George Orwell. Wonderful man. Excellent author. Terrific book. Love and hugs.

Charge what?!?
Well, this morning was the Rough Rider Charge. I hate going to that. Hey, guess what guys? I am officially at a high risk of being fat. They tried being nice about it, but I saw right through it. It sucks, but I don't really care. Thus, I am fat. I saw a bunch of people and I got my schedule. It goes as follows:
1. Precalc Wettlaufer
2. AP Biology Becker (Yay!)
3. AP World History Holmes
4. Executive Suite/Lunch Mitchell
5. Concert Choir DK
6. Advanced Comp Hansen
7. British Lit. Unknown
If you have any of the same classes as me, post a comment, and let me know what classes I have with you. I am at Chase's house right now. I just was working on my show choir music, and "You Can't Stop the Beat" is very easy. However, "You Raise Me Up" is a little tricky at parts, but it is definitely in our level. So, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Anyway, after the school crap, Geoff and I went to Starbucks for coffee with Kyle and Chance. It was pretty tasty. We needed it, especially that early in the morning. Oh, before I forget, I was also kinda pissed off. My locker is different. It isn't anywhere near where it was. Hopefully it is in a more convenient location. I already scoped it out, so who knows. Tonight I have absolutely nothing going on, so if anyone wants to do something, let me know. I am up for anything....except sex. I am not in the mood today...
Recently, I have decided that I am ready for school to start. I miss not having anything to do. I need some stress in my life. I don't like that I have time to think. Thinking is a curse sometimes. Especially with me. I always think about relationships and whatnot, and then it makes me sad. Thus, I need stress and school to keep my mind occupied. Or, just some shiny object.
Another random tangent...Star Trek. Lately, Chase, Geoff, Craig, and I have been in the mood to watch Star Trek movies. We started with the newest and are working our ways back to the beginning. It has been interesting thus far. I never knew that they could be so entertaining. That confirms it...I am definitely a geek.
Show choir...I miss it terribly. I miss all the dancing, and all the people. It is going to be quite the interesting year. Between new members and lack of old members, it should prove to be very....interesting. I am looking forward to the retreat. I can't wait to see the entire group together like a....family! Geoff, we may have some serious assimilation to do. Resistance is futile.
Call my house tonight if you want to do anything. I will be home at about 7 o' clock...probably. I want to keep typing, but I have nothing left to type. So, I shall bid you all adieu. Love and hugs all around.
