Short stories sound really cool in the second person if you do it right, but my american lit teacher is dumb and won't let us write our short stories in the second person...but I think that's because most people in the class don't know how to write in the second person. Mr. Witting made us write an entire page in the second person in honors english 8...so why can't we write our stories like that now, in the 10th, 11th, and 12th grades? (I'm one of two sophomores in a class of juniors and seniors). So my short story sucks. It's about FireUP, of all things, but it still sucks...
And now for a silly meme...
| Guilt | What is yours? | Explain yourself | | Culinary: | Creme Brulee |
Creme Brulee is the greatest dessert ever; It's seriously amazing if the chef knows how to make it. I love it! |
| Literary: | Nora Roberts Books | I absolutely love Nora Roberts; she's such a talented writer!!! | | Audiovisual: | Survivor: Exile Island | I swore I would never watch Survivor, but when I caught part of an episode of Exile Island when I was flipping channels, I was hooked. |
| Musical: | "Forty-five" by Shinedown | It's about suicide, and I am NOT suicidal (I repeat, I am NOT suicidal), but it's a song that really makes you think. |
| Celebrity: | Dan Wheldon | Heh...Indy series race car driver...he's the reason I watch every Indy series race |

Not much of a post, but I really don't have too much to say, so I'll talk to y'all later...

| 027. FireUP 2K6 |
[02 Apr 2006|07:57pm] |
I'm so glad I went to FireUP...I honestly feel so much closer to Christ and to God than I ever have before.
I rode with Pat C, Christina A, Christie T, Jacob, and Jasmine on the way down to Marquette. George called me and left a message, which I got en route, and then proceeded to try to call him once we got there and no one answered so I tried yesterday and no one answered, so I'll try his house again today after I go get my pictures back. We got there and Bill gave us our wrist bands (I still have to cut mine off). We went inside the BEC and established where to meet up after the concerts and speakers, etc. I went out on the floor with Jasmine and met up with Jared and Jared's friend Chris. Jasmine nicknamed Chris "Gummybear" (not sure why) and I spent the night getting poked in the sides, getting labeled a "Squeak toy", and in turn poking Jared and Chris. Neither one of them squeak when you poke 'em though. I saw Autumn and Erik and talked to them for a bit too. John Reuben and Lystra's Silence played, and then Margaret Copeland and Rene Rochester came out and spoke. Lystra's Silence, by the way, is an amazing worship band; I love them. John Reuben was awesome too; in fact, I wound up buying all of his CDs (he has five out). I also swiped Jared's hoodie...he took it off and put it in his backpack, and so when I was going through his backpack for no reason, I pulled out his hoodie, stuck my Gremlins Basketball hoodie in and wore his hoodie for the rest of the night. The girls were uber loud that night back at our host house. Bill came storming up the stairs and told us to be quiet and scared us so bad that we just laughed harder, and he was like "Be quiet, got it?" and I was like "Yes, Hulk Hogan". It was priceless.
Saturday morning my phone alarm went off at 6:15am and woke up all the guys too (girls upstairs, guys downstairs)...so I was not particularly popular Saturday morning amongst the guys. They got over it though. We went to the BEC and John Reuben had a mini-concert, Margarat Copeland did another part of her program called Fake IDs, and Rene Rochester talked again too. Lystra's Silence played as well. Then there was workshops to go to...I went to all three rounds. I went to John Reuben's workshop on forgiveness first round and met him afterward; got a spiffy picture with him and had him autograph the artwork from one of his CDs. Then I found Christina and Jared and we went to Hardees for lunch and then to a workshop about serving God wherever he sends you. After that, I went back to the BEC because I wasn't sure if I wanted to go to round three of workshops...but I met up with Chris and we decided to go to one on how the media influences us and our decisions, etc. Twas fun. After that, I found Campus Life and we went to dinner at Hudson's. Then we went back to the BEC and as I was walking in my purse started buzzing and it turns out Chris was calling to tell me where he was. So I met up with him on the floor and John Reuben had another mini-concert, and then Lystra's Silence played. During one of their songs I got really choked up and started crying...Chris hugged me and let me cry on his shoulder; it was really sweet of him. After Lystra's Silence, Margaret Copeland finished her program Fake IDs and Rene Rochester came out after Margaret. (I met Margaret after her show and got her autograph). I was texting Megen about how my dad hasn't talked to me in 7 weeks and how I feel like its my fault that he hates me, and Chris leans over and asks me "How do you know its you?" So I let him read the whole text (even though he'd read most of it over my shoulder anyhow) and he was like "C'mon, lets go talk." So right in the middle of Rene Rochester, we get up and walk out into the hallways of the BEC, where the locker rooms are and we talked for at least 45 minutes about the whole situation and it was hard to talk about it because he wanted me to look him in the eye when I was talking and I was going to cry if I did that...before we went back out to hear Lystra's Silence play again, he taps my chin and he's like "C'mon, look at me." and I did and he goes "Now smile..." and he smiled and it was like, I wasn't in a mood to smile at all, but he got me to smile. He and I wedged our way up so we were four rows from the front when Manic Drive came on after Lystra's Silence. It was awesome! I took a kick to the shin and quite a few elbows, but it was still fun. For the most part, Chris took most of the hits and made sure I took as few as possible. It was awesome. I got some cool pics of the lead singer of Manic Drive and a few of the lead singer of Skillet. I got a picture with Shawn (Manic Drive's lead singer) too...he's awesome. I was talking to him and he was like "So, did we do the pyro okay? Like, was it okay or was it too small?" And I hadn't really been able to see much, but I did see the pyro, so I was like "well, the pyro was fine, but I couldn't see much of anything else!" and he was like "How about when I jumped up on the speaker for you?" and I was like "Yeah, see, then I could see you!" When I went back over to their merch table after Skillet got done, he was like "Hey, its you again!" and he shined his flashlight in my eyes. It was funny though. I bought a CD and a hat and had him and the guys sign the hat. Chris took the artwork from a Skillet CD I bought and my sharpie and had the band sign it for me while I was over at the Manic Drive table; It was awesome. He got all of the signatures right before I had to leave or be left behind, which was awesome; I still can't believe I got the drummer's autograph...she's AMAZING! When we got back to our host house, it was guys being insanely loud while the girls were collapsing into sleeping bags. A full day of concerts and workshops really wears you out!
This morning, Lindsay got me up at 8am to shower and lemme tell ya, I hate the time change right about now. I got cheated out of an hour of sleep. -_- I ate a little breakfest and had Christie part my hair...I braided it in pigtails and then put on my signed Manic Drive hat and I've been wearing that hat ever since. The worship service at the BEC was amazing; I was really moved by it. Lystra's Silence played again at the beginning and the end of the service and I met them after the service. I didn't have my FireUP booklet with me that I'd had Margaret Copeland and Manic Drive sign, but I did have my bible, so I had Lystra's Silence sign my bible. The lead singer wrote down a bible verse for me too and the bassist was uber nice. Saw Chris outside with Jared, so I gave both of them big hugs. Then all the Campus Life people piled into our respective vehicles and headed for home. We stopped at a gas station in Marquette and got food while Bill put air in his tire, and then I slept from Champion to L'Anse while listening to John Reuben's CD "The Boy vs. The Cynic". We stopped in Barage too and got gas and then took a shortcut to the high school.
Mom picked me up from the high school along with all my stuff, and we went home for a bit and then to Wal-Mart, since I was dead set on getting my pictures back the same day...just picked them up about 3 hours ago and I love them!!! I missed George alot when I was gone; I hope he had a good break...
Love to you all and God Bless.

Mmmkay, so I haven't posted in over a week.
Nothing tremendously exciting happened this week except for a near panic attack caused by hyperventilating on Wednesday. That was scary. I was crying so hard that I started hyperventilation. I had to get the paper bag and everything. Scared the crap out me. Scared me so much i stopped crying; I had this thought running through my head "Oh my goodness, I'm going to die" when I was having a hard time breathing. I'm glad I'm okay, though.
We totally rocked the concert; it was awesome. Kyle asked me yesterday if I'd performed what I was practicing with Jamie in the back of the room and I told him that we forgot the second ending on one song, but other than that, we totally rocked it. I told him he should come to one of our concerts; he said if he's still around, he'll try to make it to one. Poor kid went home last weekend and came back with strep throat and the flu...and had both at the same time. Yesterday was his first day back. I was glad to have him back; I miss him when he's not in youth and law to talk to. He told me I should go to their game that was at 9pm last night...I ended up going and skipping the deeper still concert. His team won 17-1...it was a major blow out. He said he felt bad out there, but I told him his team had class for just holding the puck and trying not to shoot it. They had two games today, one at 11 and one at 8...
After finding out some really terrible news (Christina's Dad passed away at 8:15am; Rest in Peace), I left two by two early with Michelle and we went to Kyle's game at 11 (they won 9-1) and then to Jim's Food Mart for junk food and then we came back to my house and watched Bend It Like Beckham. George called around 3pm and before the phone had finished its first ring, Michelle's like "I bet its George!" and it was. I swear that girl's psychic. Just don't tell her I said that; she'll get a big head.
Saw George at the concert and talked to him for a bit before the show. He left right after, so I didn't get to talk to him, but oh well. I got to talk to him for a bit anyway. :)
So George and I went to The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe at Tech tonight. Got home about a half hour ago. It was so great going with him but I jumped like six times when I was only supposed to do it twice and he wouldn't tell me the two times when I was probably going to jump. -_- It was fun though. I feel so lame for jumping during a PG movie though. He said he might come into Quiznos tomorrow while I'm working...so I have to make sure I'm working subs :)
Have a great rest of the weekend and if I don't post until after Fire Up!, have a great and safe spring break! God Bless

I've been griping here, to my RL friends, to my online friends, and on my xanga...and all I have to say is exactly what my subject line says, "Keep in mind that I'm not giving up on us". I'm no longer saying I'm looking forward to Saturdays because I feel like I'm being ignored and that's no fun. Right now I'm just trying to live Day to Day and not worry about everything like I have been. I need to learn to relax. I've been so stressed out with George, Dad, School, Work...everything's piling up but I've gotta keep in mind that a lot of people have it worse than me. On that note, pray for Kailee's Dad and Christina's Dad.
Anywho....to the random list of stuff that's going on in my life...
--it'll be a month tomorrow since I last saw my dad or had any contact with him.
--On Saturday it'll be three weeks since I did anything with George.
--A week from this Sunday is George's 19th birthday and I have no idea what to get him.
--I get my paycheck on Friday.
--I work Sunday.
--I'm going to Duluth for two days over Spring break.
--I'm going to Fire UP, I think.
--A week from this Saturday I'm going to a movie with George because he already has plans for this weekend.
--There was a snow day today.
--We got out of school early yesterday due to a blizzard.
--March Madness is finally here!
--On that note, everybody should cheer for Duke in the men's tourney and Tennessee in the women's tourney.
--I want sushi really bad right now.
--I'm really hoping that everything works out with me and George.

The Song List
[Stolen from traxer]
Step 1: Get your playlist together, put it on random, and play!
Step 2: Pick your favorite lines from the first 20 songs that play!
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from!
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly!
If you get these without looking them up, I'll give you a cookie.
1) We are the corps of corpses, We are up in arms and armed
2) These flowers have grown from bloodstains on the ground
3) What a friendly offer; just a memory...it still hurts
4) Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay? Shellybear
5) The time is up, the verdicts in, everybody's right, everybody wins
6) I can slay my own dragons. I can dream my own dreams. My knight in shining armor is me, so I'm gonna set me free Shellybear
7) Now is the time; Here is the mountain top. When one man climbs, the rest are lifted up
8) I'm losing my interest with these empty pages; they're torn, they have frayed edges
9) Did it take long to find me? I asked the faithful light
10) All the things he's done have come to destroy their lives
11) But do you give a damn? Understand that I can't not be what I am. Jessbean
12) Slip away to clear your mind
13) Between the weak and eloquent , yeah, are conversations.
14) Tonight I'll just let go. Lost in your eyes, transparent cries
15) Your eyes are open; they can't handle the light
16) When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by Jessbean
17) I see a blank notebook page and its my life and there’s nothing I can think to write
18) I won't let you down; I won't hold you back
19) To fall is not to fail; You fail when you don't try
20) We're running but our feet don't touch the ground; we're making conversation with no sound

So I forgot to mention I talked to George on Saturday after he dropped Christina off.
I'm not going to tell y'all what was said; all I'm going to say is that I'm happy with it.
I'm still confused a bit, but not as confused as I was.
I need a hug.
I'm a little crazy
Just can't help myself
All I wanna see is you
You and nobody else
How can I explain it

I've got a crush on you

Stick to the Status Quo [High School Musical Soundtrack] |

I went out and bought RENT on DVD yesterday afternoon, when I've never seen it before. o.O I started watching it before Michelle got here to pick me up for Catacombs. It's really good so far. I only got through "Light My Candle" but so far, so good. I have to finish watching it today.
I went to Catacombs last night; the Woods' are so nice. They've got a nice house too. I drank out of a jar...it was the only available thing to drink out of, so I was carrying a jar around for most of the night. We waited for most people to get there and then had a sharing/praying session, which really helped me a lot; the power of prayer is amazing. Everyone prayed for me and my dad and that he'd see that it was really him who is missing out, but its me that's getting hurt. Jason's adenoids have been acting up, Tess is trying to get a full-ride to Finlandia, Christina's dad really isn't doing well...I wish there was something I could do for Christina other than just be there for her. After the prayer, we read over an article and talked about it; it was really interesting. Jacob loved his i-pod shuffle, and Mrs. Woods had made watermelon flavored cake...I didn't have any because I don't like watermelon, but it was a neat idea. After all of that, we just sort of hung out and talked and stuff. I had a really great talk with Tess; she's an angel. She knows exactly what to say when you're doubting something. Gotta love Tess :) Then I ended up half sitting on her when I sat on the couch since there wasn't a whole heck of a lot of room where I sat down next to George. Josh just went on reading a magazine as Tess and I were fighting for couch space. It was amusing. Oh, I still think Pat's little brother looks more like an O'Connor. =/ I got home at around 11:40pm or so...George gave me and Christina rides home :)
Well, I've gotta go do my homework...*yawn*

Count on Me by Whitney Houston |

Okay, I took today off of work so that I could hang out with George. Well, great plan and all, but he's babysitting until late tonight. GAH; I barely got to see him at all at 2x2 since he got there so late, and today is basically the one day I really need him...I'm hurting really bad because of my dad and I just need someone who isn't my mom to be here with me and help me through this... I spent half of Two by Two crying today...everything was setting me off and it was ridiculous. Alexandra sat with me for awhile and prayed with me, and Todd did the same at the end, when I was bawling again because I hate the fact that I'm questioning my faith since this is the time when I need God the most. And I hate that I can't accept the fact that this is all part of God's plan. I hate both of those things and its not fair. I need to trust in God that he'll do what's best for me, but its hard, really hard, sometimes. After the final prayer, I was still kinda teary, but I had to say bye to everybody so I got up out of the back pew and Todd told me to let him know if there's anything he can do. Andy, whom I know from Econo (he works there), gave me like three hugs after he heard why I was so upset. Amanda gave me a hug, George gave me like five; he gives really good hugs. Geez, he isn't even online yet and it sucks.
Now for the copying and pasting from my xanga...
Okay, its scary when the guy you used to like suddenly knows about the guy you currently like without you even saying anything. Trent, being the guy I used to like, somehow knew about George...that wouldn't be so odd if it wasn't for the fact that I haven't seen Trent in like a month and a half and hadn't said anything to him last night. (I worked with Trent, Chris, Angie, and Steve). Hmm... Well, the fact that they go to the same school might have something to do with it, and so might the fact that they're friends, but *shrug* It was still mildly un-nerving. I'm still too nervous too ask George what we are...
I'm going to ask Mom to take me to the mall or Wal-Mart or something so I can just walk around. I hate when I'm having a bad day because I even snap at my mom when she's only trying to help me... Maybe I'll walk down to Pete and Alexandra's and see if there's anything I can do to help them get ready for the baby. *shrug*
Oh, and I think I'm going to Catacombs tonight...Michelle's going to give me a ride. I hope George is there...

Dear Everyone,
Keep me away from onion slicers, knives, and all other sharp objects. Why? Because I cut out part of my finger with an onion slicer on Sunday and then yesterday, I cut another finger with a knife while slicing an apple. So yeah, don't me near any object that could potentially cause injury to me.
Please and Thank You ;)

Owowowowowowowowowow. I took a chunk out of my finger Sunday night chopping onions and it effing hurts like a bitch. I went to the ER and was told there was nothing to stitch, so they put in this foam stuff that stops the bleeding (which it did) and helps the wound heal (not sure about that yet). I can't get my hand wet for two weeks, so I get to work cash register and lobby at work. [sarcasm] Yippee [/sarcasm]. Oh, and I get to learn to take one handed showers and get my hair clean with one hand. o.O It sucks already; I can't condition, so my hair in general looks really really bad.
Saturday is only like...3 days away, right? I love Saturdays, for obvious reasons. I actually had to switch with Tricia this week so that I don't have to work on Saturday. I get Friday and Sunday instead of Saturday and Sunday. Tricia's awesome; she's in my German class too...only, she's in Dollar Bay. Anyway, this past Saturday George came over and we watched The Three Muskateers and some of the special features on the special edition Titanic DVDs, like the alternate ending (which was sooooooo funny!) and the deleted scenes (one of which made me want to cry). It was so much fun. *dreamy sigh*
I got my math poster done pretty well one handed, since my left arm hurts really bad since I had to get a tetanus shot..actually, my whole arm doesn't hurt anymore, but I've got a bruise on the spot I got the shot and it still hurts to the touch. Ow. The shot itself isn't too bad...its the side effects that suck. My poster looks pretty awesome, with all my spiffy drawings of angles on it :) I hate geometry. My presentation went okay today...I'm just not good with public speaking. I've got to go take notes for the test tomorrow, too. I'm not going to do well anyway; not sure why I'm bothering with notes.

I used to say Narf all the time...I think I stopped because 90% the people who heard me say it threatened me with physical harm if I said it again. 8th grade was fun...good times, good times. Steve helped me cheat my way through 8th grade American history/civics. I did the homework for like the first week or so, and then copied his every morning during honors english 8. In my yearbook from 8th grade, he wrote "and don't forget to do your homework next year!" o.O He still teases me about it.

*sigh* So yeah, I've calmed down since yesterday. *breathes deep* I was PMSing, so that probably blew things way out of preportion. My mom is not going to ruin my saturday plans with George; Saturday is going to be awesome because I'm hanging out with George, and that's all that matters.
I'm doing my poetry presentation tomorrow...I know the material, but when I get in front of the class; yikes!!!! I forget everything.
Tech basketball tonight; the women played Finlandia and the game was basically over by the middle of the first half. Ending the half, it was 52-20. Ouch. Their coach got a technical foul in the first half of the first half (if that made any sense), which is bad in any game, even if it is non-conference. Jenna got to play some, and Sarah Yellen had the game of her life. Probably the best game of her career at MTU. 14 points, 4 rebounds. Season/career high in points. Oh, and Jenna had 13 rebounds. :) Gotta love her.

I really should've switched with Becky for Sunday, not Saturday. Why? Because my mom's being dumb. She's like "I have inservice until four and George isn't allowed to come over until I get home! No parent would allow a boy and a girl to be alone together when they're still in high school!" [Mom, I can picture you not letting me alone with a boy until I'm 30 the way you're acting]. To which I responded, "And if his parents say its okay?" "NO! I don't like that idea!" "Mom, we're not going to do anything!" "I don't care! Go to your room if you're going to be so obstinate!" To which I said a fair few words I shouldn't say...not to her face of course, but I really wanted to. -_- I hate it when she's like this. What would we do? [Not a word, Jess.]

My mom and her friend Cherri came in to work tonight, and let me just say, I have never been so embarressed. (sp?). Mom had apparently told Cherri about Saturday night, and so now everybody on shift tonight is like "So...you went on a date?" -_- Not good. -_- I was like "Geez, I don't know if it was a date! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" You know how I've said nothing can bring me down? Well, just found the one thing that can. I'm so pissed right now.
I need a hug. Where's George when you need him?

Wow, last night rocked.
I went to 2x2 and there was so few people there! It was ridiculous. George was there though, so I sat by him during snacks. Joe gave me puppy eyes; mildly disturbing. It was then that I found out about the Deeper Still concert because Christina was talking about it and trying to get as many people as possible to go. I ended up going with George and just about gave Christina a heart attack. It was so priceless. George and I were holding hands. Christina saw and she was like "AH! OMIGOSH! WHAT THE! OMIGOSH!" I thought she was going to pass out. George and I left after the first song by Spare Change? and then went downtown and went to that new art gallery thingy; they make good sundaes. I had a few bites of George's sundae since I didn't get one. Then we went to Wal-Mart and wandered aimlessly for like a half hour. Then he had to get home so he drove me home, walked me to the door, gave me a hug, said hi to my mom, and left. He's so sweet :)
Movie day next weekend! :) There's like a dozen movies we want to rent...we'll have to narrow it down. We were going to go see a movie today, but then came to the conclusion that it would be cheaper to rent movies and stuff than to go see one, and we both have a crapload of homework to do. Poetry Presentations tomorrow! *bites nails*

When We Were Kings by Brian McKnight and Diana King |

Two by Two is so much fun; I love the coreography that Emily, Jeni, and Alexandra have come up with. The sign language is hard though for the one song we're doing in all sign language...I'm struggling on the "I feel like moving, to the rhythm of your grace. Your fragrance is intoxicating in our secret place" part because its so much faster compared to the rest of the song.
Tonight, there's a Deeper Still concert at the skate park, so I'm going to go with George. There's also the last Tech game of the season, but screw that; they lost 5-0 last night, so I'd rather go to the concert and hang out with my friends than be all alone at the hockey game and watch Tech lose again. I'm looking forward to the concert; I've never been to any of Deeper Still's concerts...and besides, its another oppourtunity to hang out with George too :) That reminds me: I've got to see if there are any good movies out...we might go see a movie tomorrow if there's one we both want to see. Hopefully there's actually one worth seeing out right now.
I'm going to finish a little online shopping and then let Mom have the computer back...

Wordplay by Jason Mraz |

I think the subject pretty much sums it up. I came home early from school yesterday feeling dizzy, and then was planning on going this morning. I woke up though and my head was so stuffed up and I was really tired, so Mom kept me home. I did make it out to PT today, only to be tortured by Caroline. -_- Physical therapy's a bitch, but it is helping, so I have to deal. Anywho, I slept most of the afternoon, from about 11am to 2pm. I wrote a letter to Julia Winter, that adorable girl who played Veruca Salt in the new version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I ate an insane amount of sausage gravy, which was basically sausage with a paste that I'd like to call gravy, since I let it thicken too much...it still tasted good though.
My poetry presentation is coming up either Monday or Tuesday...I'm so nervous. My poet is Emily Dickinson...great and all, but we have to be in the first person giving this presentation. I hate it. I really do. -_- So I'm rehearsing like mad this weekend.
Two by Two tomorrow at 9:30am...*yawn* better get to bed.

| 009. Geary, The Big Meanie, and Valentines Day |

I saw Sean Geary in Wal-Mart last night. I didn't even think he knew who I was, but he waved and smiled. So I grabbed what I needed to and found him walking up the center aisle. I caught up to him and talked to him for a few minutes. He's such a nice guy; its awesome. I told him he should bring the guys into Quiznos so I could make their subs. He said he'd "run it by some people, but no guarantees". Well, he never showed. I guess Kelsey Fors came in though, which is kinda cool, but I was doing dishes at the time -_-.
The Big Meanie is Kevin. He's on the Finlandia hockey team, and he works at Quiznos. His dad owned two Quiznos, so he really knows his stuff. But he always come in on Tuesdays after practice or dry land training or whatever and gets a sub. That's great and all, but he comes in like 15 minutes before closing. And then doesn't stay to help us close. -_- I'm just teasing; he's not really a mean person at all--in fact, he's quite nice--but I gotta give him a hard time.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I guess George called my house tonight while I was at work to thank me for the rose. I wish I didn't have to work tomorrow; I'd call him then, but I do have to work so I'll call him Thursday, the first day when I'm not insanely busy. *sigh* I don't get to see him until Saturday :(
