what a lame day...

I dont even know what to say today. Its been just a crappy day. My mind is completely off somewhere else, probably somewhere warm. Thats where i would go. I think im just overwhelmed right now. The whole graduation thing is sweet but its alot to handle. The party, the finals, the Ap exams, the millions of projects that teachers are assigning us thinking that they are easier than the regular work that we get... but they're not.

So as I sit here re-applying my chapstick over and over again I have come to the conclusion I will become a pirate. I mean how sweet would that be? Sitting out on your boat all day stealing treasure. hhaha, of course its a far fetched idea and obviosly a fantasy. I just want summer to be here already. Or even just the weekend, even though those go by so fast.

I think im going to continue my AP US History outlines now. this post is lame but hey, whatever, im in a lame mood. cheering up would be helpful. :)

the penguin and his perfect pebble.

So from what I have learned from Good Luck Chuck, when a penguin finds the one he loves he goes out and finds a perfect pebble for the female penguin he is in love with, he then sets the pebble at her feet and she takes the pebble. Its kind of the equivelant to an engagement for humans except the penguin doesnt have to go ask the father for permission, and there is no bridal shower, baccealurate parties or a wedding... I just thought I would share that with everyone sence I had to write a story about that in spanish which happens to be due tomorrow that I just did, and I thought it was SUPER cute. Anywaysss....

Today was really lame. I listened to speeches in AP US History. In AP Psychology we had a sub and were given a million packets to do. She wastes so many trees, she should probably be arrested. for AOT Heidi and I went and got ice cream at McDonalds. Of course I got a strawberry milkshake, it was delish. Went to Spanish IV and studied for a test im going to fail on preterite, imperfect, present perfect, past perfect, future perfect, conditional perfect, conditional, future, present perfect subjunctive, past perfect subjunctive, subjunctive imperfect, and subjunctive. Dont we all just LOVE spanish! At lunch i became completely over whelmed with everything that had to be done tonight and left with Hilary to go to Beaners and do some homework. Suprisingly I got alot done.

After Beaners I went to babysit and dug for worms with the little boy until the other 2 kids got home and we played twister and then freeze tag... litterally it was freezing outside. I left and indulged in A Boy's Life. It is actually a very good book despite its length and the fact we have a test on it on the LAST day of school. Whatever.

So tonight I sit here working on my globalization discussion for tomorrow... 20 minutes of talking, ya know that is ALRIGHT. I would rather go run 5 miles.

Still looking forward to the weekend... who isnt?

Oh and yesterday I added a new word to my vocabulary... geocacheing... it might be spelled wrong, but it sure sounds fun!

Hola!

So school was so lame, I have so much to do in so little time, and I don't want to do any of it. You would think the teachers would try to be a little nicer and not overload us with homework. I just want to be in college already, so the things I study are actually worth my time and effort.

2 years of CMU, then 2 years of New York Academy of design. Can't wait. I don't have alot to blog about today, except for the fact that everyone keeps bothering me about not going to prom. They need to get over it. Its not something I want to do. Sure getting all dressed up and pretty sounds fun, but you get there and its so lame. Last year was alright minus my date drinking too much of the spiked punch... LOL. Too bad I didnt know the punch was spiked until after the whole thing. No wonder he had frequent visits to the bathroom... anyways it just wants a good experience in general.

The rest of the week looks pretty crappy, except the weeked. Theres lots of stuff to look forward to... (Joe, Hilary's birthday-casino!!) Oh yeah and Greek is on tonight!! but i have to record it... how lame. :(

So hopefully everyone ELSE had a good day... mondays just suck in general.

Ellie

OH YEAH

In my previos post I forgot to mention that last night at 1am i got pulled over... my first time ever. I was so scared, you have no idea. I saw her do a u-ie on Williamston road, and the she started creepily following me and then i saw the lights and was like "Oh shit." I pulled over and i knew earlier that my headlight was out, but I had to go home somehow! So she didnt write me a ticket or anything but she just went and checked my records and told me to go and fix my headlight. I was so nervous because when she got out of the car i saw it was a female cop, and from what I've heard they arent very nice... but this one was actually really nice. My insurance cards had expired and apperantly were farther in my glove box than imagined, but she didnt do anything about that. thats all i have to say about that...

Sooo... this weekend has been alright, Friday night it was Heidi's birthday so we went out to Bennigans (my favorite restaurant) and of course they sang to her. It was alot of fun. Later i went to Beaners with Hilary and some guy asked her if she wanted to have sex with her... i was conveniently on the telephone as this occured, but was still able to know what was going on. He was kinda creepy, like trying to tickle her and blow in her ear so finally we were like wow were outta here. Too bad though because it was a super nice night out and all we wanted to do was sit outside. Stupid idiot.

Yesterday Hilary and her mom came over to my house to work on our open house invitations. It was sooo stressful, there was just so much to think about and i was about to explode because we had been doing it for 4 or 5 hours. It was just getting annoying. Hilary and I were both on our last nerve. The party should be fun though, after the invitations there isnt alot of work that requires that much thinking (thank god). I mean dont get me wrong I like planning things but this was just too much for me.

After the invitations i had to go to work, it was lame, but Joren and I talked alot about guys in general and I realized alot of things. How John is EXACTLY like Brad and I dont want to be involved in ANYTHING like that. I have already moved on from it but the whole thing just made me realize even more how much i dont want to partake in his little games. After work Hilary, Emily and I went to Beaners and drove around campus. Everything was dead, because basically everybody had left and gone home. Sad but exciting knowing that summer is almost here.

So my parents are really worried about me giong to Chicago in 2 weeks because of whats going on there with all the shootings and stuff. Sometimes I really do feel like im invincible which probably isnt a good thing. Weve been wating for sooo long to go on this trip and it has been planned for at least 6 months. It would be a total bummer if we ended up not going. Memorial weekend everyone is going to be at the condo for Stew, Ali and my graduation party for the marina. It should be fun, we might go wakeboarding if the weather permits. :) yayy!

So hopefully everything works out...

Today was GREAT. This morning i woke up knowing it was going to be a good day. I didnt go to 5th hour cause hilary and i went out to lunch and beaners... yummm... After school i was SUPER excited because we left for Novi and went to the twelve oaks mall. We didnt buy anything but it was alot of fun, i was looking for something to wear in Chicago but i didnt find anything that was catching my eye and making me go WOW. (that happens later :)) So after shopping HIlary and I were off to Joes lacrosse game. I had mapquested directions like i always to when i find myself going somewhere i am unfamiliar with. So everything was going smoothly until the road we were supposed to turn off of ended... we found a post office and had to ask some lady for directions. apperantly we went the wrong way on commerce because commerce jogs... who would have known... then we thought we had found the school but it wasnt the right one... we didnt see anyone out playing any kind of sport... i was like uhhhh.... i hope joe would have called me if his game were cancelled. So we were like well maybe its down farther on the road, so we went farther down and found it... Thank god... We went and sat down and watched the game... it was interesting. Lacrosse is kinda fun to watch. And of course the team won... prolly because i was there :) jk. But they did really well, and so did joe. (Good job joe :)) So after the game i got to talk to joe some, hes really shy, but he already knows that... i think were hanging out next saturday, hopefully... but apperantly i have to decide what were doing... booo... lol. On the way back home I was SOO tired... so i was speeding like mad to try to stay awake.

Well i better go work on my debate that im going to lose anyways...

Ellie <3

Today... kinda was lame. School is getting so annoying, and i feel as if ive overstayed my welcome. Today hilary and i did rock paper scissors to see if we wanted to leave during lunch and leave for the rest of the day... i won and it was go, but we decided against it. I honestly can barely remember what i even did in school today... after i babysat, but we got out of school 10 minutes early because the middle school had a bomb threat so apperantly we were effected?

When i got home i was home for about 5 minutes then left to go to the lacrosse game to take pictures for yearbook with janelle. I had NO idea you hit each other with sticks in lacrosse... WTF? its actually kinda fun to watch, which is very good because thursday im going with hilary to wacth Joe play at his school. Before we get to go to Twelve Oaks and do some Chicago shopping maybe? Or whatever else we find. Im really excited to see Joe, its been about 2 years? So it shall be a grand time. Tomorrow im probably going to play tennis with my boss after i babysit... lol. random i know.

Well its been fun. :)

Ellie

yum.

So today was an interesting day, i woke up not feeling too great and stayed home for a while , then hilary and i decided to go to beaners... i had a chai big chill and must i say it was one of the best things id ever tasted! After that we went to Qdoba... AMAZING! just like the last time. Then after Qdoba we went and drove around campus thinking of how it was going to be us next year!! we saw alot of fraterneties and were interested because of the show we watch called greek... amazingm if you ever get a chance you should definately watch it. Its on mondays at 8... unfortunatley i have to tivo it because i work mondays. :(

Anyways, i have been thinking alot lately about my so called friend that keeps pulling me in and making me want to date him every time we talk. I feel like im just there when he needs someone, and he will ask me to hang out and i will give in and hang out with him and it bothers me that i do this to myself. Hes such a sweettalker and can get anything, and i hate it. I want to just drop the whole thing with him, but then id be losing a friendship too. The thing is i just cant trust him, because im never the ONLY girl, theres always that other one. that he spends his time texting and says he doesnt like her. i think im just going to let it go and see whatever else strolls in... im mean come on, im going to central... theres lots of fish there. and theres kinda someone east of here but were not getting into that. haha. :)

hope all is swell...

so yesterday was quite interesting, i went to work at 12 and only worked until four as opposed to the normal 7. After work i go to Hilary's house to see whats going on and what we were going to do later that night. Hilary went and checked the mail and she had something that looked quite like a bomb in her mailbox, but turned out to be a gel pen and a pad of sticky notes from Office Max. we were messing around with the stickynote and my whole leg was covered in them. So i asked what time jess got out of work and hilary said 7... i said, "lets go stiky note her car!" So we went and bought a ton of sticky notes in all different colors and went to her work and sticky noted her car... right when we were about to be done we see a head smashed against the window looking out... only to our suprise was it Jess. Damnit we had been cought! So she comes out all like what are you doing to my car! there was another guy with her and they were laughing about it. We told her we would take them all off before she got out of work. So she went back inside and i pulled away to another part of the parking lot and got out my window marker and wrote cute things on her window like PROM? and jess is sexy, and see you at seven! well about a half hour after we had wrote this stuff and we were all showered and ready to go out that night, she texts us "dont write on my car." So we obviously already had and we thought she would laugh about it... well... she got really pissed off abuot it, and i told her that we thought it would be funny, and that were on our way t come clean it off. She didnt care she was pissed, and so after we cleaned her car and took all the sticky notes off it I text her asking if shes really angry. she says she is because she cant see out her windows... even though we 1 didnt even write on her front windshield and 2 wiped everything off...i told her we thought i would be funny, but apperantly not... and she replied fuck you. to be completely honest i had never been told fuck you before, so i was slightly angered by this. the fight just kept going on and on and on and on... i quit saying things but hilary texted her back. jessica went so far as to cancel the hotel reservations we have in chicago in may, something we have been looking forward to for i dnot even know HOW long. She told me i could keep the money for the kenny chesney tickets and find someone elso to go... it got WAYY out of hand, just because hse couldnt take a joke. Im just waitnig for work on monday when i have to work with her bymyself.... (insert sarcasm) cant wait (end sarcasm). So im just waiting for an apology and until then im just gonna let it be.

on a happier note i would totally reccomend going and seeing forgetting sarah marshall. It was probably the funniest movie i had ever seen. We wen to fiesta charra for dinner, it was pretty amazing but i felt like a pregnant lady when i left... even though my pregnant lady impression is very good even without being full... LOL.

Hopefully today is great, its supposed to be in the 70's with a chance of rain later. Were going to brush hilary's horse and get him food, and i REALLY wanna go to beaners... yum... but i really want one of those cookies from quality dairy that i used to eat when i was little, with the hard frosting on it, idk... anyone know what im talking about?

Anyways, hope all is swell!

Ellie

Umm hey!

Hey there, so i guess im joining the blogging world... thanks joe for the terrible influence. :)

so today was alright, i had to take a test after school for AP Psych, and i basically didnt do that great on it. I have my yearbook page due tomorrow and i have pretty much nothing on it. So hopefully something miraculous will happen so i can get it done on time.

John and I played tennis today at work, it was SOOO hot outside, and we both had our rackets and some balls so we brought the phone out to the parking lot and played, i totally owned him.... even though we werent keeping score. Before work Hilary and I went to the ice cream place by lake lansing, but they didnt take credit sooo we had to go to cold stone... oh well we got to see lots of attractive men out on campus. lol.

I also stumbled upon a very cute pair of shoes i forgot i had in my trunk... WOOHOO for summer! I cant wait to be done with high school. it seems like its gone so fast but SOO slow at the same time.

Tomorrow is finally friday and i happened to only miss one hour of school this whole week... yeah attendance is a struggle for me... i hate coming to school. but whatever im a second semester senior! screw school! lol.

well... thats about it... thanks again joe. :) ur a pal.
