Lost Continent

Summer's over, I s'pose. :/
Oh, well. My schedule is pretty good... I have Kadwell again (Yesss! XD You're going to be hearing a lot of stories from that class again, I can guarantee you!), and I have AP World History, which is a really interesting/easy class. :]

XDD Okay, okay. So when I walked into class this morning, first hour, Kadwell's English class, he pointed to me and said to the teacher next to him, "That's... Uhh, uhh... PHILLIP!" ...I came up with a good comeback less than a minute later, that distressed me a bit. (laugh)
Then when he was going through everyone's names, to make sure he knew them... It went like this: "Megan... Sarah... Brock.... Dumbass... Oh, sorry, I was going by your nickname! I meant Courtney!" And everyone was staring at me, as I laughed. I don't think they knew what to think! (I'm the only student in that class who has had him before, so I'm the one who gets picked on ;D) A few of them had "Are you going to take that?!" expressions on their face, but most of them were just like, "wtf, dude? What just happened here?" XDDD Loooove that class.
I was considering switching out of Early English Classics, taught by Kadwell, third trimester, and getting Drawing and Painting into my schedule, but I really don't think I will. XD Modern English Classics was such a benefit for me, anyway.

Welll... What else? Tonight's another football game, I am more than likely attending. :3 It would be nice if Miss Kara could come as well...

Today started out as good, turned into meh (I had to go to the bathroom SO MUCH. I need to stop drinking so much tea!), got happier after I ingested some Diet Mt. Dew (thanks, Emily!), then got reaaaally crappy after a certain incredibly rude comment somebody made to me. >:/ But I was able to see Ian afterward, and he was making jokes and talking to me and Andrea and Genaro, and he hugged me, and I felt better. That, and I've been getting into aromatherapy again. ;) Looove sandalwood! It's a very versatile scent.

I guess that's it. ^^

Silence is Beautiful.

I stole this from Kara because it looks like a good one.

1. Are you happier now than you were five months ago?
In this moment? No. But just in this time of my life? I believe so.

2. Have you ever slept in the same bed with anyone that you shouldn't have?
No. ._.

3. Can you sleep in total darkness?
That's usually how I do it.

4. Your phone is ringing. It’s the person you fell hardest for, the one who got away, what do you say?
"...Why are you calling me?"


5. What do you think about the weather this summer?
Agreed with Kara. Not answering this one!

6. How many people do you trust with everything?
Two. Maybe three.

7. What was the last thing you drank?

Haven't had anything to drink yet today.

8. Is there anyone you want to come see you?

Always!

9. Name one thing you love about winter?
The fireplace. And Christmas cookies.

10. Have you ever dated a Goth?
Nope.

11. What are you looking forward to tomorrow?
Sessions with Andrea, then I might be going to Hobby Lobby with my mother.

12. Name something you dislike about the day you’re having?

Grah, nothing I'm going to get into. I'm just really depressed right now. :/

13. What's the longest that you have committed to one person and one person only?

You mean romantically? It's been a bit over 3 months. And still going!

14. What’s the first thing you did when you opened your eyes today?
Sat down on my floor cross-legged, stared at my iPod, which had gone off because of my alarm, and turned if off after a few moments. Then went back to bed.

15. Has anyone ever told you they never want to ever lose you?

In those words? I'm not sure...

16. Is there anybody that you wish you could fix your relationship with?
Of course.

17. Could you go out in public, looking like you do now?
Yeah, I would. I'm just wearing a rumpled T-shirt and gym shorts. Would need to put some shoes on, though, I would think.

18. Do you think things will change in the next 3 months?
Things always change. Especially in that amount of time. I just don't know how yet.

19. Do you believe that you never know what you got until you lose it?
Sometimes. But I have a tendency to appreciate things that most people overlook.

20. Do you have a friend of the opposite sex you can talk to?
Yeah, about two. The same amount of females I can talk to. ;)


21. What was your best/favorite subject at school?
Art and English.


22. Describe your accent:
Midwestern Michgan, with a tiny bit of Pennsylvanian from my last vacation (after that vacation I'd say "nahn" instead of "nine," and so on. Still happens every so often), and a little bit of that New York "Gawd," instead of "Gahd," (God). (At least I think it's New York. All I know is that most people around here don't say it like that. :/ I didn't even notice until a few years ago.)

23. If you could change anything about yourself, would you?

I don't think so... Maybe a few things.

24. What do you wear to sleep?
A t-shirt and underwear.

25. When was the last time you were in a very good mood? What caused it?

Yesterday. A bunch of things (going on a long bike ride, meeting my boyfriend in the cemetery), I was in such a good mood! ...But it all ended very, very abruptly.

~*~
I'd better actually write a real post, too. Otherwise this is just too boring.

Today Andrea is having a bonfire. ^^ She invited a bunch of great people, I'm pretty excited! I really hope Ian and Kara can come. Then it will be the best. :D

Lesee... Kara and I have some awesome plans. I can't wait! One of them, which has already been put into play, is a day of not looking at any clocks ever. You can go here if you want to read about it some more.

I guess... I really don't have much else to say. I've been biking a lot lately. Rode 12 miles to the next town over (I had to take backroads, that's why it was so much longer than normally) Tuesday, then yesterday I rode about 8 miles around the country (that's when I met up with Ian).
Yeah... That's about it.

5 things you may or may not know about me.

Andrea tagged me on this some time ago, but I didn't get around to it. XD Actually, a LOT of people have tagged me on this. I don't remember how many I'm supposed to do, so I'm going with 5.

1. I love old things. Typewriters, film cameras, Polaroids, newspaper clippings from the mid-20th Century, landline phones.... The last thing actually makes me really sad, the fact that those are slowly becoming a thing of the past. :(( I want one when I move out. Same with a typewriter, I've wanted one of those for a long time. And Polaroid cameras? I've wanted one since I was 5. (But I did buy one on eBay yesterday!!! I hope it comes in soon!!!)

2. I'm the sort of person that doesn't like to/can't express her emotions. So instead of confronting people, or taking it out on others, I climb inside of myself and self-destruct.

3. I've been having problems with my room recently. >.<" I have to rearrange something every couple of weeks, even if it's just a lamp or a poster, but a few times a year I find that I reallyreally need to move a large piece of furniture around, like my dresser or bookshelf/TV stand.

4. I own 2 American Girl dolls, Molly and Felicity. (Yeah, I can't think of anything else to write! XD)

5. I like Math. I mean, I don't like it when I don't understand it (which is most of the time), but once I do, solving those problems are fun! It's... Soothing! ...I'm told that most people don't feel this way.

Summer.

I've been able to cross a few things off of my bucket list in the past week. ^.^

23. Photobooth with my boyfriend.

I did this Monday, with Ian. ^.^ We were hanging out at the mall, and so I mentioned the photobooth. It's now living with my other photobooth strips, on the molding by my window, right next to my bed. ^^ _{(We watched the playback video while we were waiting for the photo strip to print, it was so weird! I've never watched myself kiss anyone before. O.o)}

42. Tie-dye something.

I did this on Thursday, yesterday, with Donald and Kara. I mean, I've tie-dyed a shirt before, but it was so long ago, so I threw this one onto the list, for the heck of it. ;) I tie-dyed a pair of socks and a towel. My socks went missing an hour ago, and this worries me... Donald and Kara can't find the socks they tie-dyed, either... >.>;;;


8. Ride on the handlebars of somebody very close to me.
Well, I originally had my boyfriend in mind when I wrote this one down, but it still works! Today I rode on Kara's handlebars, just to see if we could do it. I see her as one of my best friends, as well as someone close to me. ;) And it was FUN! A little scary, a little uncomfortable (I was sitting at a funny angle because I was really scared of leaning forward too much XDD), but fun! I want to do it again sometime, or have someone ride on my bike's handlebars. :DD It's just so cool!


Over and out!

Hello.

Last week: War Week. It was a life-changing experience... As I wrote on my "Meraki" blog:

War Week was… Unbelievable.

I honestly can’t put the experience into words. Life-changing. Rejuvenating.

I worshiped God and interceded like never before. I did what I love doing: helping others.

This past four days has filled me up, refreshed me, and set my life back in perspective.

It’s going to take a little bit of time to process everything. Right now I’m just glad to be home. I need to recover from all the craziness, as wonderful as it was.

Next year will be even better.

Also, I do have other blogs. Meraki, as you just saw (if you clicked on the link). That one is mostly for me, a collection of things that mean a lot to me, my personal definition of the Greek word Meraki.

Then there's Her Days. It's a project of mine... To photograph one thing a day that best sums up that day... For an entire year. I am really excited. :3

Please, follow these blogs, if you want! It's appreciated. ^.^
