I Think I Shall Use my Own Words as the Title of This Entry

I GOT A SKYPE! Hee hee hee. The ZachPack talked me into it. Its fun! We had a skype fest and… wow. Amazingly weird to hear their voices. XD

CODY! O my gosh! So, yesterday I got out at 9:20 AM right? Well, I stuck around school out of boredom and went to 9th English with my freshman… We walked into his classroom and I sat down on the double seat bench thing. He sat next to me. ^_^ After his class, we went to the Geek Lounge (student lounge… the geeks played video games and hung out there so it got a new name…) – well first we went to the cafeteria where I let him check his email on my laptop until it died. Then we went to the lounge and hung out with Cassie, Sanyu, and Cory for a bit. Then they left and Cody and I stayed. Jean and Austin attacked us. Then we were alone again… (DON’T GO ANYWHERE WITH THAT! We just sat and talked.) Cody stole my phone and put his number in it under “Freshmen”. But yeah. We had loads of fun.

11 days!

GOTTA GET THAT BOOM BOOM BOOM!!! XD no shreds concert for me tonight. But I went to Cornish Christmas last night… It was fun. Kelso and Bristow stole me then Krista then Eddie. It was amusing.

Hot Sun, Beating Down, Both of My Feet Just Walking Around

That is a quote from “I Can’t Dance” by Genesis of their album “We Can’t Dance”. Its amazing and funny. Listen to it and like it!

Today starts Winter Break. For me it started at 9:20 this morning because I only had one class this minimum day.

I HAVE AN INTERNSHIP! FINALLY! I CAN GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL!!! Its at a pet store so I am going to have loads of fun!

I turn 17 in 12 days and I am stokkked!!! We got a cabin at some inn in town. It rocks. 5 people are coming so far. I am inviting 15 people. I. Can’t. WAIT! (I CAN dance, though. ^_^)

Speaking of dances… oh, wait. I told you about the Winter Formal already… CODY IS SO CUTE!!!!

*cough*

…I didn’t say that. XD

[Sorry its so short today. Random picture to make it bigger!]

Harry Potter!

I Will Just Dance Because I’m Caught In A Bad Romance With My Poker Face

I have Lady Gaga songs stuck in my head. I was singing and dancing while making mac and cheese tonight. I was left home alone.

Now I am waiting for the Big Bang Theory since Heroes isn’t on again until January. Heard on Entertainment Tonight about a guest star on NCIS killing himself. :’(

Mac and cheese is good. And ZachPack is appreciating Teacher Spock:

Math teacher looks like Spock/Sylar/Quinto...

Hee hee. This Tiger Woods shit is annoying! I have the same birthday as him… in 16 days! We have a plan: rent a cabin in town and go swimming. The cabin place has a covered, heated pool. Its pretty cool. We have a TV and board games… it’ll be fun. Just need to invite. Cabin Place

I’m thinking my sophomores and some freshmen… Maybe Kayla and Jazzy if they feel up to it.

HAHAHA! New facebook thing got me to google and bing my name. Full name. I found me all over the place! It was cool! the ZQC, ourrelatives, linkedin, facebook, my own site, ariapictures.com, MyHeritage, the list, myspace… Yeeeeeaaaaahhhh!

*cough* What now? LOL

It Is Almost Winter Break! Do You KNOW How Stoked I Am!?!!?

I honestly think I go on winter break this Friday, December 19, 2009. So I have to do homework and study for F.I.N.A.L.S. (F*ck I Never Actually Learned Sh*t or Facebook Is Not Allowing me to Legitimately Study). Hahahaa. I love random Facebook pages and groups. ^_^

Speaking of groups, I have a group presentation in Mass Media tomorrow… I need to read over my part and make sure I go everything I need… Our presentation is on analysing advertisements in magazines. We need two different ads for the same product in two different magazines to see how the ad changes for different audiences. My group chose Chase ads and they are QUITE different. The teacher said our group had the best ad.

The Ghidotti Winter Formal was Friday, December 11, 2009 and I had a SPOCKTACULAR time! The pictures are on my facebook and I made them public right here.  I don’t care if my friends get mad for showing them off online. Two bands played… Terminal Nine consists of three of Ghidotti’s sophomores and one from the other high school and The Shreds consists of a Ghidotti sophomore’s boyfriend, a Ghidotti junior’s boyfriend and some other guy who is not in school anymore. They rocked. The Shreds have all original music and Terminal Nine did covers but they gave us a sneak peak of their original song. I might have some video to put on YouTube… Also, my freshman is Cody: Oliver Twist for a hat he wore during the first few months of school and Ebenezer Scrooge or a caroler for his outfit at the dance.

Cody is in the middle, pimpin' between Bri and Jennifer.

Have I told you that there are 17 days until I am 17!!? And that there are 29 days until my next orthodontist appointment and it is quite possible that my braces will come off that day!?!?! And that I’m BAD!?!!? I am so excited for lots of things. Just need to figure out what to do for my birthday, complete some homework and studying, catch up on sleep, see some good movies, and cry that Heroes is not back until January 4, 2010.
