Awkwardly Unproportionate.

Tonight I decided to re-take my vital measurements.
Then, I looked up what actual size number I'd be.
Then, I realized why clothes don't fit.
See, I'm a perfect size 8 in everything except my waist, where I'm like a size 12.
I'm so misshapen!
I think I need to wear a corset or something, because there's no way I'm going to lose 7 inches on my waist without losing seven inches everywhere else, still making me misshapen.
Normally, I wouldn't care, but this is the sort of thing that will really bug me.

In other news, only 5 more school days left, but its an A week which means I have Biology 4th period on Friday before the break starts. The good news, though, is that I hear a certain one of my teachers is out of town all week, so one less thing to add to my stress list. Senior Cruz, however, is another story, continued in the next paragraph. My sister comes home on Sunday and I get to go to my dads house tomorrow, which means that after a week of ALL this new fabric tormenting me, I can FINALLY have sewing machine access and make something! I think I'll embroider some animal onto my plain yellow shirt. And then I'm going to make something warm to wear. I'm very excited.

So yesterday (Thursday the 13 of December) third period Spanish went like this: A few minutes before class even started, Jamie and Jaime got kicked out of the classroom to "calm down." Karlee turns to talk to me (I sit next to her)n and says she isn't in the mood to be in class so she's just going to try to get kicked out. She babbles on about how she plans on doing that, and by then class had officially started. I simply said "Haha, you totally should dude." when Senior Cruz glares at me and sends me outside. I stare in disbelief, and Karlee protests and softly says "I'm the one who's supposed to get sent out..." I glanced at the clock. It was 12:32. Two minutes into the class and I'm already sent outside, first time ever. I spend time outside with Jamie and Jaime until we get called back in about ten minutes after. As soon as we come back in, Thomas gets sent outside. I sit in my seat and try to work, but Karlee tells me to turn around and look at the face Audri was making. I did, and it was the most demented face I'd ever seen. I laughed. Senior Cruz sent me outside again. I had only come back inside five minutes earlier. Thomas and I stand there for awhile, I watch in angst as Thomas throws rocks at seagulls as they fly above our heads. Karlee is soon outside with us. Ten more minutes later we go back inside. Thomas claims to have left his book at home, so he insisted that he go to the office. Karlee got sent to the office as well, but she just went home. I texted my dad to call the school and tell them that my spanish teacher is a deranged maniac.

TGIF, right?

sentimental values.

Basically, I'm just feeling lovey.
So here we go.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE PEOPLE IN (2007 marching band) DRUMLINE.

Dan Russie: He's a great leader and knows when to be stern and he knows when to joke, but mostly I like that he loves his family and he has cute away messages for AIM.

Katie Hawn: I like how chill she is. And I love how sweet and understanding and supportive she is about everything. She's my big buddy and always will be.

Doug(las) Hawthorn: He's fun to make fun of, but he's cool because he drives us places. <3

Danny Michaelsen: I like that Danny is a great drummer and how everything he says is dripping with laughing gas. He lies a lot, but it's okay because mostly his lies are funny.

Connor Greene: Connor's changed so much since 8th grade, but he's changed for the better. He's a lot of fun and being in a section with Danny really has rubbed off onto him.

Arielle Hamilton: I love that Arielle knows when it's time to lead and time to joke, like Dan. She may have been stern on us, but she took us and made us actually good. and that's awesome!

Keon Vafai: He's also fun to make fun of, but he doesn't drive us anywhere. He never knows when to shut up but he's not a bad drummer, and he has a drive, so that's cool.

Jimmy Woodberry: Jimmy is the most determined out of all of us, I think. He works hard at his shit and it mostly pays off. He's got a dirty mind so we get along.

Me: I think I'm the bomb. Honestly. And I think (/know?) that when I'm a senior I'll be drum captain so I have to prepare myself for that. I'm getting better.

Embarrassment

... eek-invoking, exasperating, embroiling, evil, extreme: Embarrassment.

I love growing up.

How come you realize how stupid you were years after the matter? California memories. Humphf.

December 11th.

Today was a bad day for two reasons:
1) No GSA today (which wasn't TOO bad, really...)
2) I took a morning shower.
Because it was a bad day, I thought a LOT.
I have a list, a new favorite word, and a question.
the post commences:

My list of things I don't like and actually intend to do something about
Everyone has things and problems they just don't like dealing with, but never do anything about it. Well, I now have a list of the things I don't like AND solutions.
-Bananas - I promise never to eat a banana unless it's in smoothie form, combined with strawberries at orange julius.
-(Weekday) Morning Showers - I promise to never take a morning shower on a weekday unless I have at least an half hour extra in which to shower and dry.
-Myspace - I promise, starting December 12th, not to go on myspace for one FULL week, which actually is tougher than it sounds. Means of communication will be blogspot, facebook, email, or telephone.
-Pants - I can't do much about how much I hate pants, as it's getting cold out and skirts look bad on me anyways. I just promise that I hate pants.

My new favorite word that I discovered in Biology today:
Today, in Biology, I started doing my crossword that was homework when I noticed a funny word that was already filled in: DIPLOID. "Diploid," I said partly to myself, and partly to Annie. "Why, what a curious word." Annie pointed out that it sounded like an insult. And it does. Well, I looked at the definition, and imagine my surprise when I see that the definition is "Two sets of chromosomes (2N): Sperm and egg cells combine to form this number of chromosomes." Well, that didn't tell us much, but there you have it. My definition of diploid: A failure at Biology who has both sperm and egg cells.

A question:
As I was sitting in Spanish today, doing nothing because I had already finished exercises 9-13, I wondered...when astronauts go up into space, do their ears pop? I eagerly await an answer. i assume they do, but once you're out of the atmosphere...?

and in other news, I realized why it was so cold in my room these past few days....behind the curtain, my window was open!
I also found that two of the words I misspell most commonly are discover and exercise, and I used both words in this post so that I could practice spelling them.

Inspiration.

Well, i was inspired to write a good meaningful song today, but dammit, I ran out of time because I had to go to winter percussion, where bass line decided to suck all night.
so instead of playing guitar and being productive, I was in a closet playing a "tequila" split on the basses. I kid you not. Now which seems like more of a waste of time?
Don't get me wrong, I love bass line and everyone on it (even stupid Keon), but it'd be so much cooler if we PRACTICED.
In other winter percussion news, stupid Keon and I now share a cell phone locker and Kiki has a badass nickname.
In other non-winter percussion news, I redyed my hair yesterday.
I'll get a picture up eventually, but let me just say that now, instead of a cherry red, its more of a natural brown red.
people seem to like it, but I don't really like it as much as the old color.
So next time I'm going back to garnier intense auburn instead of feria bright auburn.
Ha!
Let's see, what else?
I'm in the process of drawing Brians christmas present.
I really can't decide if I want to color it or not, but I know I want to frame it.
So far it's looking decent.
I've been drawing a lot lately, and in my drawing, I've noticed that the new lead I bought for my favorite pencil does NOT erase very well.
so i'm going to have to buy bic lead now, because this new stuff just doesn't cut it.
MORAL OF THIS POST.
Guitar > Sucky Bass Drums
Garnier > Feria
Bic > Pentel

Pictures.

So basically, these are just...pictures.
I was in a "snap a picture of everything" mood.
So here we go.
Thanks to Brian I have a name for my muscles.
P.S. blogspot is a stinkhead that chops off pictures so that they don't stretch the page. Thank goodness the pictures aren't too drasticly altered.
P.P.S. I have discovered that if you right click the pictures and then click "view image" or something, it shows the WHOLE picture, not just the chopped off bit. Yay!


Mt. Leah's Bicep #1


Mt. Leah's Bicep #2


My legs. They have no names because I don't like my leg muscles. They are manly.
edit: Brian decided that thy should be called "Natalie Portman's Boobs". Well, I do touch my legs a lot, so I guess it's a fitting name.


I found some of my bead collection. Yay! It's been lost for a while. That's a bright green box, by the way. <33


"Untitled"


"Doddle-Monkey"


"Untitled and Unfinished"
(edited since this picture has been taken. Her proportions are SO out of whack...)

In other news, I am most improved battery member of the year.
Whooo.

Found cappo:

So I found my cappo in my room on the flor underneath my mess.
If you've been reading, or have seen my room, you'll know that I have a terribly messy room, almost unlivable.
Sometimes, my cat can't even walk across the room without stepping on something.
Well, I cleaned my room yesterday because my mother asked me to and found my cappo.
I was simply overjoyed.
and now I can walk through my room.
In other news, I've been doodling a lot lately.
Maybe I'll snap some pictures of my doodles and put them up sometime.
Finished and unfinished and studies and whatnot.
In MORE other news, I've gotten really really muscular.
Yay yay yay!
I'm going to snap pictures of my muscles as well.
They're getting so big, it might even be time to name them.
If anyone reads this besides my loyal readerpal Brian (<333) and even if you are brian, perhaps you could contribute a name or two for my moosklees.
hannukah is coming up, winter break is coming up, christmas is coming up, new years is coming up, my birthday is coming up.
Is anything coming down?
