A Gecko’s Story

Hi everybody!! Not much going on this weekend. I finished all my exams last week so the new 2nd semester is ready to start Tuesday. My school’s messed up big time.

First, the exam schedule was stupid. They only gave us 50 minuets for each exam; I didn’t have enough time to finish my math exam. And if it wasn’t for my double hour of biology, I wouldn’t have finished my AP Bio exam. I wonder how many other people didn’t finish?

Second, my math teacher goes on vacation so he doesn’t have to be here for exams. (evil.) Not to mention he’s going to retire like in the middle of the new semester. Ahhh, my math grades have been the highest this year then ever!! He can’t just leave! I’m actually understanding what he’s teaching!!! noooooooooo!!!! (I knew it was too good to be true. >_>)

Third, we can’t go outside for lunch. I’m used to an open campus back at my old school in Germany. We could actually go out to eat edible food at the Mess Hall and stuff. Here our parents can’t even check us out for lunch; our PARENTS!

Fourth, we have to have less then nine absences, unexcused and excused, or we can’t get credit for a class. — I hate that rule so much; It doesn’t make any sense.

Fifth, they’re starting this thing were we have to spend lunch time walking around outside 2nd semester. I don’t want to walk, I have other more positive things I can be doing with my lunch time like cracking open a book or studding for biology. Oh, and get this: Kids who are in band don’t have to walk. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

I’m going to see if I can get out of walking somehow.

Now, it’s Christmas. yay!!

This year I’m spending it with my grandparents all the way across the country.  It was a long plane flight with a boring layover and everything.  I had only gotten roughly two hours of sleep that night before we had to wake up at 4:00 am (I’m a night owl).  In our layover time I managed to get a little sleep by hogging two chairs; afterwards I felt a little better.  When my Opa(German for grandpa; tis what I call my grandpa on my dad’s side) and my cousin Micheal(he’s almost a year older then me) came to pick us up I slept in the back seat of the van.  And then I fell asleep again on my Oma’s sofa.  Heh.

umm… Christmas tradition is a little different here.  Instead of opening presents on Christmas morning we’re opening them on Christmas Eve.  I like this idea.  Not only do I get presents earlier but I can sleep in without anyone telling me to wake up, and there’s no bad pictures being taken of you in your groggyishness. 

Anywho, I’m going to go do something now. Bye!!

Ever have them? I mean, duh moments… Where you just can’t find something only to have it in the place where you spend the most time? Duh moments. To wonder why your CPU is on but your computer isn’t working only to realize your monitor is off? Duh moments. Turing your car key so only the radio clicks on, thinking the rest of the car is ignited only to wonder why you can’t pull out of the driveway. Duh moments. To look at your dishwasher overflowing with bubbles to realize you put liquid dishsoap in. Duh moments. To get up from your computer chair to answer the door only to fall to the ground because you’re wearing your headphones attached to the computer. DUH MOMENTS!!

You feel like and idiot more often then not, and I have done all of these things. >.<

I spent the night at Erika’s house. We just watched movies and ate pancakes for lunch when we woke up. After we watched Cars we got on her laptop and I got to talk to her friends from all over (like me, she’s a military brat). At the same time I started to read Inu-yasha and I guess it’s okay but Fruits Basket is soooo much better (I wish there was a year of the cat now. >.< I’d change my zodiac, like Touru!)

Umm… in the real world I’m thinking of getting my hair dyed and cut; most likely a darker brown and just trim it keeping the style I have. yep. I guess you can think of it like Ashe on FF XII, even though I had the hair cut first! <.<

Well, I gotta go. People are waiting for me on msn. bye!

I hate it. >.<

I hate the smell …hate the sound of it crunching in somebody’s mouth …I hate the smell of stale popcorn …I hate it in small enclosed places …I hate the feel …I hate eating it …I hate people telling me that I hate popcorn …I hate it in cheese …I hate it in caramel …I hate it with salt …I hate it plain …I hate the sound of it popping …I hate the smell of burnt popcorn …I hate it we watch a movie and my parents pop popcorn …I hate popcorn at the cinema …I hate it when it gets all over the place …I hate it when the smell stays in my clothes.

It makes me sick.  Bleh.

It’s candy spelled backwards!  yay!  But good luck pronouncing it! mehehe.

I have lots of candy after All Hallows Eve.  Yesterday was a good harvest of candy. yup yup.  Then my friends and I dropped off everything at my house and ran over to the haunted trail for the last time.  It was more funny and painful then scary.  Ian kept screaming at every little thing and that made me giggle and Erika who would not let go of my arm, turned it blue and dug in finger nail prints.  That kitty had claws. >.<   *(PUN)*

But I’m alright now. I’m hyped up on sugar and I have no school tomorrow or Friday! yay! (go me – go me! woot!!)

And, now onto the Nightmare Before Christmas.  I was disappointed.  Everyone I know just goes on and on about it and, so, I felt left out. So I finally watched it a few days ago and while I thought it was good I didn’t think it was better then the Corpse Bride.  I loved the Corpse Bride; I like Emily a whole lot better then Victoria and Johnny Depp even in clay is another story all together. *sigh*   heh.

Anywho, I gotta go do something else right now.  Bye!

(P.S. I’ve switched browsers to FF.  My firewall blocked IE, to some that’s funny. heh.)

Yay for Halloween; the most wonderful time of the year! ^.^ I love dressing up, not necessarily Trick-or-Treating, for Halloween. You can be anything you want and let your imagination run off. This year I think I’m going to be a story character I’ve been cooking up for the past few weeks.

She’s a fairy and works as an assassin (heh, yup.). As a weapon she has this claw thingy that I’m not sure if I want it to be like a glove or a fake arm yet. I don’t have a name for her but I know she’s opinionated and offensive at times, she dosn’t like people or fairies very much. She should be cool, I just have to find a good plot to stick her into after I find her a name that is…. >.<

Anywho, in the real world. My parents are having a Halloween party right now. Yup and guess who’s stuck baby-sitting? [insert sarcastic laugh here] Heh, yeah, me. But lucky for me the only munchkin to babysit hangs around my brother so I’m free. Yay! ^.^ So, right now I’m just hiding out in the compy room listeing to Firewall on iTunes. I should study for biology, I have a test tuesday on the cell membrane but I’ll do that before I watch The Nightmare Before Christmas on Cartoon Network at 7. heh.

Time to go do something else! Byeeeee!!

On Friday I bought the new Evanescence album, The Open Door. ^.^ I love it so much.  Amy is my favorite female vocalist and chosen role model.  Anyway, on to posting my lovely favorite song called Lithium.

Lithium//

Lithium-Don’t want to lock me up inside
Lithium-Don’t want to forget how it feels without
Lithium-I want to stay in love with my sorrow
Oh but, God I want to let it go

Come to bed, don’t make me sleep alone
Couldn’t hide the emptiness you let it show
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didn’t drink enough to say you love me

I can’t hold on to me
Wonder what’s wrong with me

Lithium-Don’t want to lock me up inside
Lithium-Don’t want to forget how it feels without
Lithium-I want to stay in love with my sorrow

Don’t want to let it lay me down this time
Drown my will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Can’t break free until I let it go
Let me go

Darling, I forgive you after all
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to fall
Always find my place among the ashes

I can’t hold on to me
Wonder what’s wrong with me

Lithium-Don’t want to lock me up inside
Lithium-Don’t want to forget how it feels without
Lithium-I want to stay in love with my sorrow
Oh but, God I want to let it go
