random stuff

hi again :) i kno it's been a while, but i've got a crazy ton of stuff going on!! like friday, i babysat from 6-11:30. 3 boys who can't go five minutes without yelling, hitting, or throwing something at each other. wasn't THAT fun!!!! specially when you think of how many "five minutes" there are in 5 and a half hours. . . yikes!

but this was made lovelier by the fact that i had to get up early *on a SATURDAY* to go play volleyball. so after 3 hours of intense, tiring vball, i staggered to the car and passed out. no, i wasn't drunk, just EXHAUSTED. i also now have multiple bruises on my sides and elbows. how? let's just say that during those games, the floor and i became close, personal friends. we have plans for tomorrow as well :P

so i'm sitting here, painting my nails, and thinking about what to write next. then, it hit me! no, not an idea, a paper airplane that my brother threw. i taught him a quick lesson on family in which the correct answer for each question i asked was, and i quote, "UNCLE!!!! UNCLE!!!!!!!!!!" end quote. so that got me thinking. why say 'uncle' when you give up? why not. . . .aunt? or cousin? abuelo? or even mommy?! of all the family members, what makes the uncle that important? things to ponder. . . but now i'm stuck with


writer's block is an awful thing. much worse than a ROAD block. all a road block can do is keep you from physically getting somewhere. writer's block can keep your MIND from getting somewhere.it leads you to a wall. a big, white, circular wall that's got you trapped. there's not even any GRAFFITI, bcuz of course you could USE graffiti to get around your writer's block. so you sit and stare at the wall and contemplate how you're going to overcome it. after a while, you come up with a brilliant idea like pole-vaulting over the wall. you get all excited, and you get ready to make this fabulous idea work, but then you realize. in it's complete and total unfairness, your writer's block has failed to give you any weapons to use against it. like a stick, so you could pole-vault over it. so you sit for another hour or four, and then you realize how dumb you are. writer's block is all in your head, right? so something to help you get over it is in your head too, right? so you think really hard. . .so hard that you're about to pass out. . .and then. . . you've done it. you've dreamed up something to get you out of it. you look around to see the magnificent tool you've brought out to help you accomplish your goal. and it's. . .it's. . .it's. . .a marker? wait a second, something's wrong here . . . how the heck is a marker gonna help you?! you throw it against that big, blank, circular, white wall with no graffiti. somehow the cap comes off and the marker tip dots the big, blank, circular, white wall with no graffiti. but now, the wall with no graffiti. . .has a dot. you pick up the marker, and use that dot to make a face. and you use that face to make a person, and you use that person to make a life. and then the person and their life steps off the wall, and the wall disappears and BOOM. writer's block is gone and you have something to write about. hey. . .my writer's block disappeared!!!! wow. erase what i said, if you want to get rid of writer's block, write about it!!!

random stuff, i kno.

drama drama drama

okay, well one of the first things you're gonna learn about me is that i'm not very consistent. i probably won't post for long periods of time, but don't forget about me anyway :) oh, and if you haven't seen the music video for disturbia yet. . .don't. just so u kno.

anywayz. so yeah, drama. it's part of everyday life, or at least it is for me. latest episode in the soap opera they call my life - here's this guy jake* (names shall be changed to protect people. . .even if they are jerks) and my best friend (sarah*) was totally in love with him, but he didn't even kno who she was. so the day she finally got the courage up to talk to him, jake goes and tells me that he likes this Other Girl, and he's gonna ask her out that afternoon. which, of course, broke sarah's heart. it's probably a good thing jake and sarah didn't go out, cuz from what jake has told me, i feel bad for his previous girlfriends. i mean yeah it's okay to break up with a girl, but to do it over the PHONE?! when we asked him WHY he did it over the phone, he said if he tried to do it in person, she'd catch onto what he wuz doing and break up with him first! guyz and they're macho pride, i swear! no offense to all you out there that don't act like that of course. drama. can't it stay on the TV screen where no one really gets hurt? but then i guess life would be pretty boring.
