2. You shall press forward for each question.
3. You shall use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn't make sense. No cheating.
4. You shall tag 5 people and rain hell upon humanity. I'm skipping this one. Not too many of my friends are artsy, or even on dA.
5. You shall give your own comments on how it relates to the questions.

1. How are you feeling today?
"Vive Las Vegas", ZZ Top
Las Vegas is an exciting place. I cleaned out my closet today and slept in. My life=/=exciting.

2. Will you get far in life?
"Up Around the Bend", Creedance Clearwater Revival
Because I will "come on, arise and win"!

3. How do your friends see you?
"For The Girl", The Fratellis
My friends love me (I'm very lovable), but I hate them. Or at least sometimes. Well... not very often. But sometimes.

4. What is your best friend's theme song?
"Touched", Vast
I never listen to this song. And I'm not entirely sure who my best friend is. Correlation? I think so.

5. What is the story of your life?
"Miniature Disasters", KT Tunstall
Wow, that's self explanatory.

6. What is high school like?
"Hindi Sad Diamonds", Moulin Rouge Soundtrack
Drama, drama, more drama.

7. How can you get ahead in life?
"Maybe It's Just Me", Butch Walker
By becoming a famous singer?? Sorry, I'm not seeing a connection.

8. What is the best thing about your friends?
"Daughter In The House of Fools", Enon
Everyone around me is a fool. I'm not. It works for me.

9. What is in store for this weekend?
"If It Were Up to Me", Rooney
"If it were up to me" then I'd be doing nothing. As is, I've got college trips to make this stupid decision.

10. How is your life going?
"Sleeping In", The Postal Service
My life's on hold, basically. I haven't been to any parties, gigs or even really hung out lately. I'm kinda playing the loner card.

11. What song will they play at your funeral?
"Suddenly I See", KT Tunstall
"Everything around her is a silver pool of light, people who surround of her feel the benfit of it." <--Wishful thinking, but hey.

12. What do your friends really think of you?
"Thank You Note", Butch Walker
Guess they're pretty grateful? I dunno.

13. Do people secretly lust after you?
"Somewhere There's Someone", Dean Martin
"Somewhere there's a someone for me". Hurry it up though! Waiting is stupid.

14. How can I make myself happy?
"When You Were Young", The Killers
I need to stop waiting.

15. What should you do with your life?
"A Foggy Day (in London Town)", Michael Bublé
I'm at a loss. Maybe I should be a weather god. Or a meteorologist?

16. Will you ever have children?
"As I Rise", The Decemberists
When I'm older and smarter, maybe. But mostly I'm hoping to hell not. I'd make a shitty parent, and kids creep me out, they're too much going wrong at once.

Making brownies for Father's Day, my folks are out at the grocery store. I got some red cinnimon thingies to spell Happy Fathers Day out with too, no apostraphe, it throws off the balance.

Once again, I am faced with a month long electricity-less existance. I'm looking forward to heading to Michigan this year, I need to relax some, get my shit in order, sketch some. I haven't done any of those three in awhile.

Houston sucked, and that's all there was to it. We went to Galveston the last day, my mom and I, and meandered around the beach. Got some nice shells I'm gonna make into acouple necklaces too.

So... all in all this week has been a bust. Monday and Tuesday I got new glasses and had my sunglasses made prescription. Went shopping before that, and had a generally good time. Wednesdays when things went downhill. Not that I dislike my classes or anything though, they're better than they were last semester. I'm just so tired after school everyday. I'm not working today, and that says how tired I am.

So I've been getting on the forums more and more recently, and I've been participating in a few of the arguments. I know all the lines: fighting over the internet is like playing in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded. Hell, I even agree with that philosophy! So why do I keep calling people out? I have no idea, and it annoys me. I don't even enjoy talking on the forums, since there are few civilized conversations, and those aren't the ones that interest me. I'm draw the morbid and grossly ignorant. So I comment on it, and realize that telling someone they're wrong, no matter how intelligently I do it, is getting me nowhere fast. Lets face it, idiots are happy, no, PROUD of their blighted and misguided opinions. They'll never relent, they'll never admit their wrong, and worse, they'll never admit that they are not, in fact, the smartest person on the earth.

With that all aside, it's been a pretty cool week. Almost no homework (or none that I did.

My Christmas rocked, I'm not an abused/neglected child, I don't have an overload of angst. I'm just needing to rant on the topic of graduation project, which I've just begun. So here're my thoughts on the matter.

(Ohhh, off topic, but: Kiriban's inna few.)

---

Maryland high schools instituted Graduation projects as a requirement for graduation last year. Now, you may ask yourself what a graduation project is (aside from the obvious), so let me inform you as to what it is:
Shit. A giant festering heap of wasted time, wasted effort and wasted thought.

It was originally implemented as a way to boost the GPA of failing students in our school system by giving them an opportunity to complete an incredibly asinine and simple project. Which may have been a decent plan, if you only care about making the public education system look smarter than it is. And beyond it's already failed cause, the school bureaucracy managed to ruin it further. It's now an entanglement of pointless paperwork and time requirements. Referring back to it's original purpose, your average failing student isn't the kind to care what they're getting. Otherwise they wouldn't be failing Algebra 1A their senior year of high school. So it's in no way helping the untalented, and it's only consuming the time of the better students. A way to prove that they too, can create a mediocre solution to the world's problems and get an A for it.

On the subject of solving problems, I'd like to know who cam up with the idea that the only worthwhile project has to do with saving the environment, or teaching disabled children, or creating a food drive. I've paid my debt to society, I'm a working EMT. Let me create a mindless, selfish and enjoyable project that has nothing to do with saving small kittens. I'm not interested. I hate children, and I donate to charities, not create new ones.

To top it all off, they are continuing in their constant struggle to create a class of mediocre and insipid elite. The kids who work hard. God help me, I've never understood why they seem to hate actual talent. Most likely because they were said mediocrities, who relied on desperately clinging to their B average through constant studies and effort. The kids who resented the easy A students, who without any effort manage to fly through class, have now grown into adults who resent those same students. Somehow being able to complete your project faster than the given due date is a capital sin. A 130 hour requirement leads only to false journal reports and time counting. And it in no way forces the underachievers to create a harder project, it only involves more creative lying. Imagine the reason for this requirement: the school is trying to reward those who create the same horrible project as the more intelligent, but assume that because it takes longer, they're working harder. And as we've all learned, intelligence and natural ability is no longer valued, it's "work ethic". Holding those with a IQ higher than that of a goat on a pedestal isn't politically correct. It might hurt the stupid people's feelings. Therefor we must create something all students can aspire to. Hard work. What a load of crock.

It would seem that it's simplicity makes the whole thing a waste of time to bitch about. But it's not the actual project that consumes your life. It's the paperwork that is meant to prove why you've created a valid project. Common sense is thrown out the window, the obvious is ignored. If you've created a charity, it's purpose is to help people. And somehow we're expected to expand a simple one sentence statement into three pages of blather on world peace.

God help us all. We're fucked.

Scanner is broken again. I have come to the conclusion that the only way to bypass my parent's "spend a dollar to save a penny" mentality is to buy my own. A no frills, meant for Mac, WORKING scanner.

Somehow, after having two Epson machines that ran perfectly for their limited lifetime, they've decided that a three in one that lasts a year isn't good enough. Need I remind them that some people replace their computer every year? Not that I'm saying we should, but after squeezing 7 years of life out of the FrankenMac, they should have realized an updated model was a little more important than they thought it was. And so now, we have a scanner/printer/copier that's guaranteed to last longer, if only by complete and utter lack of use. What a piece of shit. What a waste of money.

Aside from that, two journals in two days? Amazing.

Saw the new "Pride & Prejudice" on Thursday with Anna, Will and Laura, and then again yesterday with my Dad. Saw Amanda at the theatre, she was seeing it too. Got most of teh soundtrack off the internet, but I'm going to buy a copy. The piano pieces are amazingly emotive, and the two violin solos are just as well done.

Been on dA for the first time in awhile, and I'm a little weirded out by the number of people who have characters named Azrael. And all of them are guys with white hair. Very reminiscent of a Sephiroth knock-off, and very scary that they're literally the exact opposite of the black haired, female Azrael of mine. (Which in saying sounds really dorky, to be talking about a person as "yours". God I'm a loser.) It kind of annoys me. Good thing that the character I have sketched out in my mind doesn't go by her literal name, otherwise I'd feel the need to kill her off.

Been playing with the puppies just now. Always makes me feel guilty to stop playing, but I'm out of wind before they are. They seem so sad when I stop. It's a major guilt trip in the making.

I just read this on someone's comment. "I Watch A Lot Of Anime And Thus Learn Tiny Bits Of Japanese. And Then Incorporate Them In Sentences Sometimes. Just A Habit ^^". They're from Canada. I think I'm going to die. Cause of death is a toss up between laughter and shame.

Anyways, talking to Kristi... so here's some anecdotes for the reader:
---
ME:
My Character essay:
Most of my friends got an invitation to NHS also, and we have been talking about our essays either while we write them, or when we are just hanging out. And the main question is how to write about our stellar characters when most of us have a severe lack of them. Kristi says to me, "Honesty is the best policy." To Kristi, I reply, "Honesty would land me a life sentence." We have a dilemma.
---
KRISTI:
lol, for scholarship i would take out the part about being killed and goofing off as an aid- they might not like that so much
ME:
I'll drop the goofing off part, but the death penalty stays.
---
KRISTI:
anyway... i think you should add some more about being an emt, like the good feeling you get after you help someone or somethin
ME:
So add some sap?
---
ME:
I am so screwed.
KRISTI:
lol, nah
ME:
I am flat out lying. How is that good character??
---
KRISTI:
that's so mean
ME:
Truth hurts.
---
KRISTI:
hey do you think i should put piano down as an extracurricular activity?
ME:
Yup. Folks love a girl into piano. Reminds them of the 50's, where girls behaved like they should: seen not heard.
ME:
Seriously thinking about it, that's what they want, isn't it? They want me to write about poodle skirts.
ME:
Which, actually, are cute in a retro way, but not anywhere else.
KRISTI:
you're writing about poodle skirts?
ME:
... no.
---
KRISTI:
your horoscope:
Your creative talents could seem to be totally blocked today, dear Aries. You may have a project you really want to work on, and you have the mental focus, but the creative element just may not be there. This could prove so frustrating that you may just want to throw something. Do this if you must! (Preferably a pillow.) Still, the only answer may be to shelve your work until tomorrow. You should be back to normal by then.
ME:
AHHH! These essays!!!

I dunno if I ever mentioned that I dropped AP Studio?

Funny, I haven't cried in ages. I'm talking a year or so here when I say ages. Nobody's died, nobody's been depressed, the normal shit keeps on running by, and as my patience dies out, I care less and less.

So it seems odd to me that the first thing that really does get me, the thing that breaks the barrier of "normal shit", is losing a field hockey game. What devotion, what unnatural obsession would create this kind of reaction. As I stand on the siddelines, I turn to Megan and Lauren, and all the sudden I'm crying. And we all had a chick flick moment, and then it was over. So halftime comes and goes. And at the end of the game, it's not the game so much that I'm upset about, but how I feel at the moment. "Lower than dirt" aptly describes the situation. I feel like I've never played worse, like I've never disappointed anyone worse, and that everyone knows it. So as the game winds to a close, I seclude myself next to a fence and bat my eyes to wipe away the tears. The first line of defense is simply not crying. The second, thinking happy thoughts. Final line: eyelids. Except tears always manage to squeeze out of closed eyes, and once the leak's begun, there's no stopping it. I calm myself, breathe deep breaths, I'm not sobbing, no one's noticed. And as I watch the JV game, I calm down some. And Megan, Jaime, and Rachel come to sit with me, ending my seclusion. It's an odd thing, that I can manage to laugh, even when beaten. At Linganore, we lost, though in less upsetting circumstances, and in an Invitational tournament. So any of you who know your field hockey know that means it doesn't count on your season record. But it doesn't stop the shame from burning, the bile from rising in your throat, and the tears from welling. But I stole balloons and was happy. I'm a simple enough person, it doesn't take much more than yoinking a set of balloons from the enemy to get me going again. And the point of that anecdote? The four of us, sitting against the fence, laughed so hard my face hurt. I haven't laughed like that since Swarthmore.

I don't know what happened as we cleaned up, but Zigler's mood was originally permissive. We lost, we sucked first half, we were okay second, the ref's sucked, overall not a completely horrible game. But as we all piled into the bus, something snapped, and she unleased such a stream. And that dampened the mood. Considerably. And I'm sitting towards the middle of the bus, with Lauren behind me, Jay, Maddie, Hannah, and Victoria to the left. The bus begins, the drone of the engine, the wind ripping through the bus as we lower windows. Everyone is dead silent, letting the hum of the bus wash over us. And with that quiet backdrop, I begin to doze.

I regain consciousness to wet cheeks and a dripping nose. I've been crying in my sleep? Okay. I close my eyes tighter and hope no one notices. Too bad, Lauren's spotted me. So after the uncomfortable time of giving all the appropriate "I'm all right, really"'s out of the way, someone begins to sing. And from there, the bus ride lightens, as we all belt out choruses of "Build Me Up Buttercup," "Just Dance," and "The Song That Never Ends." And things continued well enough until we got back. Apparently, the band has filed a complaint about our cheers as we drive in? Well too fucking bad. So today we simply scream, no cheers. Loud, wailing, banshee shrieks issue from the bus, accompainied by a lone, "How d'you like them apples???!" And what good humor we'd returned to coach died. Right there. Just gasped, shuddered and fell at our feet.

I still get weepy eyed at the thought of the game. God, what would I do without field hockey??

So today... got a 100% on my calc quiz. Then got rejected by 11 teachers as a TA. And their reasoning? I know too many people, and I talk too much. Conclusion= I'll get everyone off topic and not working. So, my battered ego and I crawled over to Wagner's room, who I hopw will take me in when he gets back.

There's this super-uber-dooper hot blonde guy at our school. And I don't know his name. 'Cause he's not in the yearbook or anything. Amanda said his name is Greg, but she wasn't real sure. And she said that a year ago, so god knows if she even remembers it. Anyways, it's a bit annoying. I'm at the point where I may just wander up and be like, "what's your name, mr. hot blonde guy?"

Talked to Coach Phebus today and got my schedule all set out (it had some glitches, I guess.) Anyways, means I had to drop my AP Physics class, so I'm taking Chem and AP Studio instead. Not my first choice, but they're okay classes, I guess.

Saw Ladder 49 today. I don't think I've cried that hard in a loooong time. I bawled. Poured buckets. I dunno, maybe it's just because I can empathize, but everytime someone was saved I'd cry, and when people died, I cried harder.

And then me and my Mom sat down and watched Bride and Prejudice, which was really sweet. And Martin H-something, the dude, is really hot. It's got Sayid from Lost too, who's also really hot. Great movie, we're gonna buy it!

It's a great thing, this EMT training is. Not only am I in a class that half of my friends would KILL to be in (don't get me wrong, none of them care shit about having dying people bleed on them, but the other guys in the class are fiiiiiine.) So I'm getting lifted up and down 2 flights of stairs on the stair chair today. For all of you ignorant, little people out there, that's a chair that the victim gets sat down in, seatbelted into, and then carried by two EMTs. Feels a lot like a Pasha style litter.

Anyways, the module 1 test is tomorrow, and today we learned to take blood pressure, so me and John shipped out and bought stethoscopes and blood pressure cuffs today. Mine are mismatched, but they're both pretty close to the same shade of magenta. Anyways, we dropped by the Frederick Uniform shop to grab 'em, and talked to the little old lady behind the counter. She was a sweetheart.

Went to the Tavern for lunch today. We and my mom had to scurry though. Lunch break is only an hour. And the 10 minute breaks? Spent 'em all in the lounge. It was me and Christine on each break, me in my Laz-E-Boy, her in hers. And the guys wnadering in and out rotated.

So I've said it just about everywhere today, but I've just made an ass out of myself. In front of my hero. In fact, like THE ONE person I super admire above all others. Well, not really -that- big, but the guy writes a kickass comic, and come on, he's just that cool. So I'm ready to find a small hole, crawl in and die. Please, no mourners.

Aside from that, had an awesome time in Georgetown today, playing Vanna White with my dad at the Presidential Classroom. Something about Washington though, noone makes eye contact, no one smiles, everyone wears a suit. So I walts in, orange floral skirt, white shirt, glittery shoes, and smile and wave at EVERYONE. I'm sure they either a.) knew I was from outta town, or b.) thought I was anything from a serial killer to rapist.

And to add to the general joy. I tossed on my headscarf to keep my hair of the way, and once again I feel like the ultimate pink pirate! I should get a picture of myself up soon, I get way to much joy out of this.

And Emily made plans to go see a movie before the party tomorrow with me and Amanda. And I have no idea what the fuck is going on. And my mom is freaking out at me about it because she wanted to take us all to a movie AS the party or something... I hate when people change plans halfway through. Especially when I figured it was a show up, hang out, kinda thing. Lame excuse for a get-togethor, but it works. And then my mom's all like, it's a party! Go see a movie! Uggghh... whatever.

So... major thoughts on my mind at the moment:

1. 'S the weekend. I've been working on this one pic for acouple of days now, but with a month or so inbetween each time. (Every time I open it, I either doodle or do something else. I am so flippin' lazy.)

2. Too many girlies in my gallery. Gonna do a guy I've got in my Stat notebook. So scratch finishing that first project.

3. Got company over tomorrow, gives me another excuse to wear my new shoes! I returned the pink ones (my mom kept bugging me about 'em, and somehow they lost their appeal. Lotsa love to my momma though, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten my new ones!) and got these absolutely adorable black, beaded, open toed stilettos. They're awesome!

4. Must finish watching How to Marry a Millionaire. Brilliant movie!

Went shopping today, stuff you don't need to know about, then shoes. Saw my ex-coach in Starbucks.

So back to shoes, I've put up a photo of my shoerack from yesterday afternoon, and a picture of the shoes I got today. Very cute!

"Look mommy! Look a the crazy girl!"
I am so fucking tired. So we're about halfway through hellweek (end of the semester finals, HSAs, CRESs... everyone's favorite time of the year) when I realise that in these 5 days, (4 classes a day) I have, and will be, taking 8 tests, 5 projects, 1 quiz and multiple assignments. And to make things so fine and dandy that I'm ready to wretch, most of them are tomorrow and Friday. No, forget spacing, how about we cram tests into every class last two days?? Not to mention that I was absent Friday last week, missed out of half the stuff FOR these tests. Emilie's stress level has hit full capacity. Oh, and did I mention that the more stresses/frustrated/angry I get, the more I giggle and laugh and smile. So not only am I ready to kill something, I'll get to plead temp. insanity for giggling all the way through. I really want to hit something. Hard.

I can't wait until my punchingbag for the basement shows up.

So I was walking by Accents (nail salon) and I see my poster in the window. I point it out to my mom, and her and me sit and stare at it forra couple of minutes, then wander off to the optometrist. And on the way back, after my appointment, my mom drops in and walks up to some of the people she knows in there (they work there), and starts asking about the poster. And then she's all like "Yeah... my daughter did that."

In retrospect, it's pretty funny, and it's cute how she told them all, but at the time I was ready to find a corner and die. My ape-man is posted all over town, and all I can think is that he looks like an orangutang.

So... back to topic. Or what I meant to say at least. Kiriban's been 'n gone. I'm waiting to see if anyone got it, (if not I'll just do a thanks pic or something) and the number's 1,999 now. Which gives me a lot of time. A lot.

An english paper that's due tomorrow. I thought it was sorta funny, but then again I'm a hater who flicks her hands when she types. (I just noticed that, I occasionally life my left hand and do one of those gay guy wrist swivels, like in prep for saying "talk to that hand, biiiiiaaatch!")

Anyways:

I believe that mandatory education is a must, even though it sucks.
With the exception of a couple of people, myself included, I figure that most people would be or continue to be dumb without school. People who aren't as well off as others would stop going to school in order to work at manual jobs that don't require an education. The middle class would ship their children off to private schools (or public schools, if still available) where they'd learn the necessities for a higher paying job. And the rich upper class wouldn't have to send their kids anywhere, because they wouldn't have to work with family money, but will probably still be sent off, just for the look of the thing. So in the end, a class system will emerge, one where the lower class, without money to send children to school or in need of kids at home working, will never being able to rise above their caste, a middle class that may eventually earn the money to become upper class, and an upper class that will swindle it's money in ignorance and eventually ruin itself (becoming lower class).
With kids working competitively for top grades and honors in school, the transition from school to the work world would be much easier than if school weren't required, and you were suddenly expected to work at age 18. Not only would it affect individual results, but the entire economy would suffer from a sudden bout of stupidity. What is now considered to be one of the most proficient countries in business and has one of the best values to the currency would soon be a worldwide laughingstock. Not that the french aren't poking fun now.
Without an army properly educated, with at least the basic knowledge of which button to press, and which button not to press (the red one), we would soon be speaking Mexican and singing "O Canada..." at ball games. Or worse, we could all be French.
The middle class would be able to send more children to school than the lower class, filling schools with yuppie children or mini-WASPs (White Anglo-Saxon Protestants), reinstating racism as the name of the game.
While I can safely say that most of my peers are only mostly dumb, without mandatory education I would be hard pressed to find a single intelligent one amongst the lot. We have mandatory education now, and while it can't force them to learn anything worthwhile, they at least learn to snore quietly and not to drool on the desks.
In the end, going to school everyday and wishing I wasn't is, while less entertaining, much safer and simpler than a social upheaval.

Watching: The Boondock Saints... best damn movie -ever-!

So my brother lends me a movie called The Boondock Saints, 'cause for once in our lives, we're not arguing. It's odd to think that when he's not being a bitch, he's actually a really cool guy. Funny that we hang in the same circles too. I've been looking for his livejournal recently, I can't seem to find the link though.

Anyways, back to the topic. So I just finished the movie... and it's friggen' AWESOME! I mean, you stop and think, and it all makes sense, which I love in a movie, but it's funny as hell, in it's own slightly morbid way. And there's action, every crude joke you can image, all the good jazz... and Sean Patrick Flanery is sooooo hot with that accent. Yummm.

So, off the good topics, I've got an eye infection, couldn't go to third or fourth periods 'cause I had an appointment for my eye, and missed the Spanish test. I can't make it up tomorrow, so maybe Friday or Monday.

Oh, and my shoes arrived today!! The white ones! They're so adorable... Ahh I'm gonna squeal! And my moccasins are on backorder until January, so this may hold me over until then...

... Forgot to mention, there's a Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day in the works!

Okay... call me shallow, it'll be the truth. I don't much care for "meaningful" photography, I'd rather just go for something pretty, for example: shiny things, small furry, doe-eyed mammals, and incredibly hot guys who send me into fits of drooling.

So I go screaming and kicking for the door, slam it back, and it's our next door neighbor. Now don't get me wrong, I love Mr. Hall (he got in an accident recently, Mrs. Hall is in the hospital, and they're elderly... bad mix), but I'm sort of disappointed my shoes haven't come yet.

'Cause, you see, I've ordered my 10th, 11th, I've lost count, n-th pair of shoes since the beginning of school. I've found I have a shoe problem. 0.o Odd, but better than continuing to wear flipflops in the cold.

And I still have to do my spanish homework...
