Nobody's Perfect.

I've been going through a writing/art block, yes. And that includes blogging.
Apologies!
I've just been feeling like my blogging is pretty boring. Which it is, in my opinion. (Don't bother with "oh, no it's not!" because that's not why I'm saying this. I'm just stating my feelings.)
To make up for my lack of blogging, I will go through my past week with you... In pictures. >:D


Last Saturday I went on what was pretty much the best date ever. It was a friendly date, but that doesn't matter. (With the Fetus.)


We took a spontaneous stop to here, a trail that goes alongside the river.


It turned into an adventure.
(Not only this, but walking along the slope you see in the background, but only steeper, jumping across part of the river from a small ledge.... Ouch.)


We did so much that day... Stole some soda from his mum's (and said hello, of course!), saw Kick Ass (best movie ever), the mall, went back to his house and watched Sherlock Holmes... With more stuff in between!


Okay, then half the week went by without me taking pictures. XD Today Fetus and I went out for a photoshoot.... You'll find out what these photographs are for on a later date.


I took 42 photos. ^^; These two are my favourites.




Bwaha... And HERE is my favourite part of this post.
Monday night I sat down and was all like, "Ohh, I'm going to draw a unicorn, and it'll be a nice and pretty unicorn..." While I was sketching, Angel texted my computer, so I told her, "I'm drawing a unicorn!!!" And she replied with, "Give it wings! And, and! A fiery mane and tail!" After talking with her for twenty minutes, my pretty unicorn turned into this... An animal of mass destruction!!!
Please full view. That way you can get a full grasp of its destructiveness.
And yes, I meant that it shoots cannon balls from its hooves, not cannons! That wouldn't work!
...Wow, that was a long caption.


Wiedersehen!

Today I Became Engaged. And Then a Turkey.

It should be illegal to write when this tired.

I came to school this morning, all "Lalalalala I hope this day goes by quickly~~~," in a pretty good mood because early-morning gaming just does that to me. Met my friends at the lockers, and the first thing that was directed towards me was, "...Hold on, hold on. Courtney, I need to ask you something." It was Chelsie. She scrambled to her feet. I looked at Angel, and she looked highly amused. I was scared. You would be, too, if you knew Chels.
"Courtney," she bent down onto one knee, holding out a ring. "Will you marry me?"
It took me a moment to get my bearings, but once I was able to speak (yeah, I'm exaggerating for dramatic effect. Go with it.), I said, "Well... It's a bit soon...." We'd only been going out for a week! (Again, just go with it.) Chelsie put her hands on her hips and glared at Angel. "I told you!!!"
"I just wanted to see her do it," Angel said guiltily, when she saw my glare. Personally, I think she's just jealous because Chelsie took back the roses she gave Angel for Valentine's Day and gave them to me. She still hasn't recovered from that.
I ended up accepting Chelsie's offer and wore her class ring for five minutes.

Ifoundthisreallygreatblogandyoushouldgocheckitout. Rightnow.

The turkey thing comes in much later, after school. Andrea-A came over and we watched Invader Zim. ....If you're not extremely familiar with this show, then I will not bother explaining that reference. Deal with it.

My knee still hasn't started scabbing.

And I'm considering getting MSN. I have no idea why. I love my yahoo email address. But now I want a webcam.

I really need to start finding dates for Friday nights. It's just too boring over here by myself.

...Are you still reading this thing?

Release Me

Step 1: Open up whatever MP3 program you use and add every song in your collection.
Step 2: Put it on random.
Step 3: Post the first line from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarassing.
Step 4: Post and let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.

[I'll separate them by tens so it's easier to read.]

1. We are a thousand voices strong
2. I never wrote a love song that didn't go 'woe is me, everything is wrong'
3. It takes a lot to be always on the floor
4. Angely i demony kruzhili nado mnoj
5. ORENJI RENJI wo shitteru kai
6. It's not that she minded he'd had other lovers
7. When the sun came up we were sleeping in
8. My eyes are open wide
9. I am green today
10. Do you erase what you're thinking and replace what you feel?

11. Spotlight shining brightly on my face
12. We've been down to the bottom, stories we got of when we hit rock bottom
13. Tonight I'm so alone, this song take a hold
14. I told another lie today and I got through this day, no one saw through my games
15. It's not everyday that I meet a person quite like you
16. Your name here, believe me, it's not what you think
17. I can see, when you stay low nothing happens
18. I saw shawdy dancing on the floor
19. We've been seeing what you wanted, got us cornered right now
20. gaman no renzoku dattaro kokoro de naiteita ndarou

21. Sparkling angel, I believe you are my saviour in my time of need
22. I invite you to a world where there is no such thing as time
23. I came to party, you came to party, so why don't we party together?
24. It's that time of year, leave all our hopelessnesses aside
25. Tell me that's it's gonna be okay
26. There's a cross on the side of the road where a mother lost her son
27. I escaped my final moments but it's turning back on me
28. Knock knock, are you alone?
29. I am in love with you
30. All the boys voices cracking, oh the moaning half tones

HINT: There's quite a bit of Within Temptation, Superchick, Straylight Run, and Imogen Heap. No cheating, though! D:

If a few people make some guesses, I'll put the answers up! (Plush, Shae, Muse, I'm looking at you!)

Schlog mich Baby noch ein mal!

Reading: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, vol 2
Eating: Reese's egg
Listening: Wise Guys and Barenaked Ladies

Yesterday was the first day off Spring Break. =.= Whooo-peee...!
But after school I hung out with Plushie, so it was all good. (Shae couldn't come! D:<)
We looked at his Neopets cards, went onto Neopets online, then a walk. We ran into Rachel with her boyfriend, Chris! I've heard a bit about Chris (and his brother), so it was cool to finally meet him!
As Rachel and Chris rode away from us, Rachel told us, "Stay out of trouble now!"
......And then we got into trouble for the first time EVER.
(SHE JINXED US!)
We went by this one house, and I saw a sign covered up with pine needles, and I wanted to know what it said! It looked like the sign was on the property of the building next to that house, and Plushie thought so too. I kicked off the needles with my feet then he helped me lift up the sign to inspect it, but it was all rubbed off. :( So we just put it back on the ground and left (but not before I took this cool log!). We were about halfway down the street when this guy came out of his house, smoking who knows what, and yelled at us: "HEY! You gonna clean my lawn back up?!" We were both like 'D: What do we do?!' So we told him that we didn't know that it was his lawn, and we were sorry, but he was still standing there, scowering at us angrily.
"We'll clean it up," I told him finally, pretty annoyed. He went back into his house and I kicked the needles back onto the sign. ("And I'm keeping his log!")
Then we walked around on the other side of the street, and even went BEHIND that street (walked along the tracks), just to avoid his house. XDD

Plushie kept looking over his shoulder, paranoid that he was just going to show up.
He'd be leaning against the library, smoking his whatever. He'd take a loooong drag, then say in a creepy voice... "You didn't pick up my lawn.... And now you're gonna die."
...At least in Plushie's imagination.

What's Another Word for Desperate?

Best way to end Spring Break.

I woke up at 6:30 this morning, as always, despite it being a Sunday. Now, I know you're probably thinking I'm insane, but you'd be doing the exact same thing if you were in my position. ;)

[Wow, I suck. Started this on Sunday, finishing it on Tuesday. >.<]

I arrived at the hill before Shae, but after Plushie (he actually came!). We lay on the hill for a bit, and Shae joined us, but we became a bit bored. (There was a little sunrise! Yay!) So we traveled next door, to the logging company. There Shae and I became men. (Plushie, however, did not. He refused to walk in the puddle.) We also climbed around on top of the logs (I nearly killed myself! xD!) and giant piles of dirt. Then we noticed the parked train and we went over to inspect it.
...I feel like I should not write about this here. XD
Oh well. We climbed on top of the trains! I think P went up first, then Shae, then somehow they convinced me to do the same. I'm glad I did, it was beautiful up there. Such a view! After walking around on that car, I found myself hopping from car to car behind Shae and Plushie. O.o (It did take about ten minutes of "Come on, Courtney! I know you can do it!" But whoo caaares...)

And we saved a puppy!
We were headed back to go home when we heard this loud screeching, screaming sound. We thought a dog was being abused, seriously. Turns out this guy put a puppy he was pet-sitting on his porch (surrounded by fencing), and the dog was throwing a fit. It was raining, I can't believe he'd put someone else's dog out there! When he saw us he tried climbing through the bars of the porch rail. =.= He did actually get out, and P put him back (Shae had to distract the big dog so it wouldn't eat us xD). Then he tried to climb out again, but didn't get so lucky that time. He became stuck, and we had to go knock on the guy's door to let him know. (The dog did eventually wiggle his way out, though.)
Proof:



Then after church (which I nearly missed) we met up again. When Plush and I were headed over on our bikes to meet Shae, I started screwing around and ended up wiping my bike out, and on the shoulder of the road. I thought I was completely fine until we got to his house (we went back for some money), where I realized I had blood streaming down my leg. Long story short, the road took out his big chunk of my knee when I fell. >.< It was reaaaally gross.... I couldn't even look at it straight when I first realized it was there. But hey, I don't have to describe it to you-- you can see for yourself! XDD


YEAH, HUGE IMAGE!
...Because I just like grossing people out with it.

When I came home I changed the bandage. Before I put a new one on, I made sure to go find my mom to show her.
Mom: "Ew, disgusting! Why would you SHOW me that?!" *slams door on my face*
XDD
She thinks I might need stitches, though. :/ I mean, it looks a whooole lot less bloody than in that picture, but it's still pretty deep, and the center still looks gorey. So she's gonna call the doctor today.

Hmm... I still have more to write about, so I'm gonna do what Shae does and make a new post! Sorry :DD
