Here's the short version of this past week since I can hardly remember half of it now and my brain is filled with other thoughts.
I got my history exam back. I got a D, but he put that it was a C so I assume he did a curve. I got my history quiz back today too and I bombed it. I got a D. I am not at all liking this class and it makes me feel stupid because I can't do well in it. I do well in all my other classes that I've had and have, but not this one.
We did stage fighting in acting one of the days this week. That was pretty fun and very funny to watch some of the other people do it. Some days I really love that class and then other days when we have to 'follow our hand' I hate it. Sometimes I think they purposely want to make me feel incredably stupid. lol I'm not at all looking forward to the final. I have to do a 3 minute solo performace and I have no idea what to do, plus there's that wonderful thing called stage fright.
I got good news in my music class though. We don't have time to do the final project(the Minuet) so we're just having a standard test of everything. :) I'm glad because his tests are very easy and I pretty well know almost everything by heart. We're spending all of next week reviewing for it so if I don't know something, I will by the time of the final.
Other stuff happened, but I donno... I'm just rather depressed right now. Wait... I take that back. I'm slightly less depressed because Sam just sent me this! Now I am starting to be happy again. :) Thanks Sam!!!! You rock my socks!

Hehehe! My parents went out to the sidewalk sales after church today and they just got home and guess what! My daddy got me a present! lmao It's a shamrock nightlight and it's got this thing with water and glitter on the top and supposedly, when it warm up, it all swirls around! Heehehe! I'm powering it up right now! I'll try and remember to take a pic and post it later. ;)
Oh yeah, and HosTurbo actually replied to one of my support e-mails!!! Woohoo!!! Now, hopefully they'll get the stuff fixed so I can log into FTP again! lmao

I went to the Mariners vs. Devil Rays game with my youth group last night. The Devil Rays won 3-2 and the Mariners really sucked! Hardly even any hits! Ugh, I hardly even watched the game because it was so boring. Hopefully when I go to my next Mariners game they will do much better. I apparently caught them at a bad time or something. lol On the way back, I was saying how the Mariners should all have to give their salaries from the last four games they've lost to charities since they didn't earn their huge pay! lmao I thought it was a good idea. ;)
Dang, I don't have history tomorrow so now I'm very tempted to skip my music class too so I don't have to drive all the way out there just for one class that I'll hardly pay attention to. I don't have acting class on Fridays at all so I'd be driving 45 minutes to have a 50 minute class and then driving 45 minutes back. Egh... I think I may just skip it. The only reason I'm thinking about not skipping is because he's reviewing for our test on Tuesday(no school on Monday), but I think I could do just fine on my own. Humm... I guess I'll just have to see what I decide tomorrow morning.
Dance class kinda sucked tonight. We had a different teacher for some reason. We did the dance we've been working on for a bit and then this guy added a part onto the end and it's doing this weird thing where you've gotta kinda crouch down on your knees and I was attempting to do it, but it wasn't working for me. My knees just don't like to do things like that and then they start cracking a whole bunch and it just sounds yucky.
I e-mailed four of the same e-mails to HosTurbo tonight in hopes that they'll fix the stuff that's wrong with shininstar.net. As of right now I can't log into FTP at all and whenever I try to go to a CGI file on the server I get an internal server error. They'd better fix it soon because I even faxed them yesterday afternoon! Can't they take a hint? Don't they check this stuff? Apparently they don't care much about providing a good service and good support for that service. Grr. They were so great for the first like four or five months that I had their hosting too and then all of a sudden around Christmas time they started having all these problems and every time I think they've finally fixed it, a few days latter the site will go down and be down for like a week or two! Arg. Okay, I feel better now that I've gotten that out. Time for Who's Line Is It Anyway?, gotta go! TTFN!

I went and saw Star Wars again tonight. All I have to say is... Damn, I want Anakin! lmao Goodnight. ;)
Today was not at all what I had hoped it would be. Nope, not even close. For starters, I was just not feeling very happy this morning and then movement class didn't help that at all. I felt rather depressed the whole time and then talked myself into skipping my next two classes which was a big no-no. I offered to take Aki home and as we were walking out we ran into Danielle(sp?) and she said that we should go see a movie 'cause she could get free passes for us all. Anyway, we didn't end up going to see a movie 'cause none of her friends that work at the theatre were in today, but we did go back to Danielle's house and had lunch and watched Rat Race, which I had not seen until today. lmao VERY funny movie! After the movie was over we all piled into my van(well, my parent's van, but you know) and headed back to the campus to drop Danielle off at her car and then Aki and I started heading back toward where we live. We were just passing under the overpass through the city when I notice out of the corner of my right eye that there's this little white car starting to get rather close to my vehicle. Then before I know it, the dude's totally side swiping me! I slammed down on my horn(once I remembered where it was since my car is different than the van) and the dude just kept on coming so I laid down on my horn for a while after he finally got in front of me so he'd know that he made a very stupid mistake and tried to freakin' kill me and Aki!!! I was not a happy camper at the time, but I'm alright now. It just baffles me how some people are so stupid when they drive! I mean, yes, I've done some stupid things too, but he was in a little car and I was in a big old mini van... how could you miss that if you actually looked?!?! Ugh... whatever.
Anyway, I finally got home alive after dropping Aki off and that was good. But then it got bad because at that point I had a headache and realized that I wasn't going to be able to go and see Star Wars again tonight 'cause I had to study for my history exam tomorrow! Bluck! I read the chapters and I even recorded myself reading the first one out loud and then played it on repeat while I took a nap to see if my subconcious would absorb all the important info. I'll let you know if it worked after I get my exam results back. lol I had to give it a try! But yeah, that was my day and now it's WAY past when I should have been in bed and I'm probably not going to have a very fun time waking up in the morning now so I'd better go before I make it even worse. TTFN and watch out for people who don't do head checks before they switch lanes!!!!
Note: Since I've not yet gone to sleep, I still count it as being Monday.

Okay, I am seriously going to start freaking out soon! Garg! So yeah, here's why. They finally took down the contest entry form on aaroncarter.com and it says that the sweepstakes has ended, but it doesn't say who won yet. I WANT TO WIN!!! lol They finally stoped the contest so now I just need to know who won. Even if it isn't me, I just gotta know so that I can stop thinking that I might actually win. Uh, and then of course, I get his latest tour dates in my inbox today and he's not coming anywhere near Washington... AGAIN! I've only ever seen him perform once and that was when he opened for BSB in '98. That's too long and I feel Aaron deprived! Yeah, okay, I'm going now... I just had to get that out.
Saturday, May 18, 2002
Oh my freakin' gosh!!! I just got back from Attack of the Clones and I just have to say... THAT MOVIE KICKS SOME SERIOUS FREAKIN' BUTT!!!!!!!!!!! I so freakin' want to go and see it again tomorrow! lmao Probably not going to happen, but the theatre in town is going to get a lot of business from me just to go see that movie over and over again. ;) I can't help it, it just kicks so much butt! I mean sure, the acting was a little corny in a few spots, but the rest of the movie just makes up for all of that and more. Oh, and Ani, I was so freakin' right about who the evil emporer guy is!!! Booyeah!!! *dances a jig* Yay! lmao So yeah, now that I've gotten part of my joyous movie experiance out, I can go on to the rest of what I was planning on writing. ;)
Prom was tonight. Ani wanted me to go, but personally, I feel that going to see Attack of the Clones was a much greater experiance! lol Although, I would not have minded at all to have a date to the movie 'cause then I wouldn't have had to sit next to two old guys who smelled of cancer!!! (For those of you who didn't get that... cancer=smoke.) How does one politely tell another to move because they smell nasty? I couldn't figure it out so I just prayed for God to make the smell go away and protect my lungs. :D I feel okay so I think God answered my prayer with a yes. :)
Humm... okay, I am still on a serious Star Wars kick. lmao I'm starting to forget all of the other things that I was going to post! AHHHH!!! lol Oh well, none are quite as interesting as Star Wars. I think I'm overdoing this a bit... humm... I should just keep going and go all out by making an Attack of the Clones layout for one of my sites! :D Yeah, that's the ticket! Remind me to do it later... lol
Oh yeah, so I went with my mom shopping and stuff earlier today. :) The nearest K-Marts to us are all going out of business and today was the second last day so everything's pretty cheep. :) I got some hair junk to try and get my hair to live and be nice, the Aaron Carter live in concert video thing, a cute notebook, and a digital camera case. I'd say it was a very productive trip. ;)
After that, my mom and I headed over to look at this model home thing. It was pretty cool. :) The kitchen is absolutely huge and there's an island that's huge too! lol Only thing is that I don't particularly like the layout of the house save for the kitchen. Oh well, nothing's decided for sure yet. My mom had me take a bunch of pictures with my digital camera so maybe I'll put some up in a few days if I remember(I'm far too lazy to do it now).
Anyway, I ought to go now. I can't really thing of anything else to write on here that I wouldn't mind having read by other people so yeah... lol G'night and go see the new Star Wars if you haven't yet! ;)
Humm... just when I'm all happy with HosTurbo again, now I cannot access any of my CGI scripts, nor can I log into FTP. Hopefully they'll actually fix it right away though. That would be nice. Garg.
Aki and I went to play ParaPara, DDR, and DanceManiax(sp?) on Thursday! :) It was much fun, but my arm hurt so bad now! lmao We played the hardest levels on DM 2nd Mix around 4-5 times in a row and my arm muscles are just so freakin' dead. lol Not cool now, but it was SO much fun then! lol We went to Pizza first with a girl from our acting movement class and she brought her cousin and that was much fun too. :) We were hoping that at least a few others from our class(we announced this all and invited them all to come along) would go with and join us, but no one else did. :( *sniffles* How sad. I think Aki and I are going to go back to play games again this next week or the week after 'cause the place has half off stuff during May and lazer tag's only $3.50!!! I just cannot pass that up. ;)
I went to hang at Ani's earlier. :) We watched Star Wars: Episode I in preperation for the second one which I get to see... TODAY!!! lol Well, a lot later today considering the fact that it's like 1am, but you know. ;) lol I need to start forcing myself to go to sleep earlier. I think my lack of sleep all this past week is really starting to catch up with me. Then why am I posting on here? That's a very good question and I don't honestly know, probably simply because I'm addicted to the internet and I'm insane! lmao
Blah, now I don't know what to write anymore. It's the lack of sleep I tell you. Guess I'm going to go mess around on the net a little more and then hit the sack. G'night!
Oh, and for those of you who may not have noticed, I finally got if-you-knew.com up. :)

Holy shoot! It's a miracle!!! HosTurbo finally fixed the subdomains at shininstar.net!!!! Oh happy day!!! Just when I was getting seriously bummed because my sites on subdomains there had been down for so long and I don't have money to get a new host, they fixed it!!! YAY!!!!! That just made my whole day so much better. :)

I'm listening to happy music right now. :) Aki mad me a Smile.dk CD!! :) *sings* Boys, boys be my boys. I wanna feel your body. Boys, boys be my boys. Tonight I'm ready honey! lmao I'm prepping myself for when we go to play DDR, ParaPara, and DanceMania later this week. :)
Ugh, I've got a seriously evil headache right now. Why won't it go away?! :(
Our weather is funky. It snowed, then rained a bunch, and then this weekend it was sunny. It even got up to around 80 F yesterday! Then of course, today it's cold and rainy again. lmao Washington weather never lets me down and it always continues to rain the way it's meant to. ;)
My Nanos came today. That was dang fast! It got shipped on Sat. and now it's here! lol I was expecting to wait until Wednesday, but I'm glad I don't have to. I've only opened up the puppy so far. I think I need to start another one 'cause this is too easy to take care of! lmao I remember them being so much more difficult to take care of, but maybe it's just 'cause I was stupid when they first came out! Oh, you know what's freakin' funny? I opened up the box and pulled them out to see the colors... they're the same as the original ones I had! lmao I had a purple kitty, an orange puppy, and I think a clear baby and that's what I got! How tweaky is that?! Hahaha! Oh yeah, and another funny thing, I was pulling out the peanuts used for packing, and out comes some eye shadow and some lipstick or something from Covergirl! lmao I have no idea why those are in there. I guess he must have packed them in on accident or something. So funny! lol I guess I'm going to have to find a friend who wants them since I don't do makeup.
*sings* I wish upon a star, I hope it won't be far, someday, someday. Our lips will be as one, beneath the golden sun, someday, someday.

I didn't go to school yesterday. I was not at all prepared for my history quiz and we get to drop one, so I chose not to go and to drop that one. I wasn't having a good week for that class. I kept spacing out in class and I didn't read ANY of the book stuff. I have to do better this week and read and pay more attention. I had a strange week. Some stuff was so cool and then other stuff was boring drab.
I babysat last night. I haven't done that in a LONG time. I kinda didn't really remember how to either! lmao I think it all went just fine though. :) The highlight of the entire evening was when their older sister(a friend of mine) got home and then one of them discovered what they thought was a dead rat in the their dog's pen area! lmao It turned out to be a possum(sp?) and yeah, it was pretty darn dead. It was kinda sad though 'cause it was just a baby one. :( Jana(my friend) was so funny though! lmao She decided to save it to show her dad so she propped it up on a shovel against a tree!
Another thing I did last night was buy a Nano Kitty, Baby, Puppy trio off of eBay. lol You all remember those? I used to have all three of the originals, but then I was rather stupid and gave them all away! I know I gave the kitty to a girl I babysat and I think I gave the puppy to my younger cousin because she liked it so much, but I'm not at all sure of what I did with the baby one. Anyway, now I get to have all three again. I checked my dad's e-mail this morning and there was one saying that they're being shipped today so I should get them by like Wednesday at the latest, I think. lol Oh yeah, the stupid part... well, you might already think I'm pretty stupid just for getting them, but it gets more stupid! lol I paid $57 for them all after the shipping and handling was added! Technically, it's not too bad of a deal because they originally sold for about $20 each so it's pretty much the same as when I bought my original ones, but it's still a lot of money. Too late to change my mind now though! lol
Humm... some of you may remember my rant about my last pizza from the local Pizza Hut that I used to work at. Well, today I had another fun experiance with a place of former employment. I used to work at the local Subway when I was 14 and my mom decided to get sandwiches on her way home for lunch. I asked her to get me the same thing that I always get, a BMT with just mayo, mustard, and olives. You know what it was when she got home and I opened it up to eat? Just plain ham with the stuff. None of the other stuff that's supposed to be on a BMT. Garg. So guess what I got to do! I had to get dressed really fast and drive all the way down into town and have them make me a new one! Then of course, everyone in there looked at me like I was stupid and I'm all just standing there like, "Whatever." But yeah, I finally got the right sandwich and got to eat at least. :)
We've got a bunch of people from church coming over for dinner tonight. Actually, a bunch of adults. My parents volunteered our house for the adult social. A few couples come up to our house for dinner and then they all meet down at the church afterward for dessert and stuff. I'm actually invited to come out of my room during that time now because a "kid" is coming with his folks. He's technically an adult, but I guess they figure they should whip me out so he doesn't feel left out, althought I doupt he will. *sigh* Whatever. I was just planning on hanging in my room the entire time and playing on my computer, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. It'll be okay though. Anyway, that's it for now. Gotta help my mom clean some more and then I need to take a shower. TTFN!

I got to go shopping during work today!! lol My boss had me go to the office supply store and get some packing tape, paper towels, a white board and some dry erase pens, and a palm pilot for him. :) I was surprised too, because he gave me a company credit card and when I checked out they didn't even ask me for my ID or anything! Anyway, that was quite interesting. :) I was going to go to an Adobe seminar focusing on Photoshop 7, but I just finally got the info from my boss today and it's this Thursday, around an hour away from me, during my dance class time(I just switched from Tuesdays to Thursdays), and it goes until 9:30 pm so I wouldn't be home until really late and niether would my mom 'cause there's no way she'd let me drive out there by myself. So yeah, it doesn't look like I'm going. :( Hopefully there'll be another one soon or something that I could go to. :) Well, this is it for now. Time for me to go find something else to do. Ta ta!

Humm... the weekend was pretty boring after the movie night with Ani. I just stayed at home and in the house the entire weekend sleeping, watching TV, and of course, being on the internet. Yesterday I installed a board script on streeted.net, but of course, just when I thought it was working and being all nice and great... it decides not to generate the pages for the posts!!!! GRRR!! I even stayed up later that I was supposed to re-installing it and it still did the same thing and then my mom got mad at me for being up later that I was allowed to be. Garg.
Today, however, is quite an interesting day. I woke up this moring after my normal habit of hitting the sleep button and what do I find when I finally get out of bed and walk out to the kitchen/living room to say good morning to my kitties? 
I find what you see to the right... snow. In the month of May it's snowing! There were big, huge fluffy flakes when I first woke up and now it's snowing again, but more so in little beads of it. It's crazy I tell you! It's bad though because when I got off the freeway to start heading up the road home, I went a few feet before coming to a dead stop. I have NEVER seen that road covered in cars, not moving at all. Lucky for me though, I was at a spot where I could actually turn around so I did and got back on the freeway. I went to where I knew the entrance to the back road that goes through another housing development was and hoped that I would be able to find my way though it. See, I've never actually driven though there until today! lol Obviously, I made it since I'm sitting here typing this up. There was a caravan of cars all going up that way, but the only problem was that I was the one leading it and I didn't know which way to go! But a resounding yay for God and His snow because I got home by following the less snowy parts of the road since they seemed to be the most traveled and I made it! :) I'm so very proud of myself now. ;) Anyway, all is well, so now I'm going to attempt to install that dang board script once more... wish me luck!
Friday, May 3, 2002
I just coded up Ani's new layout and put it up for her. :) I'm so proud of her! lmao She's making her own graphics and she's starting to learn HTML so now I won't have to update it for her all the time... hopefully. ;) Anyway, she's over right now and she wants to post on her blog so I gotta jet and post a better entry later. TTFN!

Dang, THESE are some totally awesome space pics! For those of you who may not know, I'm a space freak. lmao I can't wait to take the next level of astronomy at the college! I wish there were more astronomy classes, but at least there's the two and the first was really cool so I expect good things when I take the second. ;) Anyway, Hubble took some awesome pics that I reccomend everyone checking out. I just wish that they'd stop it with all of the Big Bang stuff. I respect that some people believe that, but it's called the Big Bang THEORY for the specific reason that it's only a THEORY and there is no solid scientific proof that it's the truth. I personally believe that the Big Bang theory means God spoke and BANG, it happened like the bumber sticker says, but if others want to believe in it, that's fine, but it just bugs the crap out of me when it's treated as the absolute truth. You know? Anyway, food's almost ready so I'm gonna go. I'll try and post again later if I have time and I remember about it. ;) TTFN!
