It's Been A While

It's strange. I'm on the computer so much (so much that I NEED to cut back) and I have so much kill time that I always am like "This is probably a good time to blog!" Then 2 seconds later I get distracted by YouTube, Tumblr, or Solitaire...yeah...shut it.

Good news though, my wisdom teeth surgery was quite successful. Obviously I was drugged and high off Vicodin, but it honestly wasn't as bad as I though it would be. Watching my brother suffer through it when he had it done 2 or 3 yrs ago, I was kinda scared, but then I remembered he's diabetic so his body heals much slower than mine (or any normal person for that matter). All of my stitches came out by this Wednesday or Thursday, so not even 2 weeks. The only downside is that I have these sockets in my gums near my back molars that food can get stuck it and possibly get infected which sucks. I can eat much more normally, but I'm still trying to restrict my eating from using my back teeth which is much harder than you'd think.

This Wednesday is our High School's Christmas Concert and it's going to be a long one. Jazz Band, Concert Band, and Chorus. Do you know how many solos and shit there is? It starts at 7pm, but we most likely won't get home until 11-11:30pm.....kill me. Our songs are stupid anyways. We only play 3 songs  (concert band since I can't be in jazz band this year :( ) and no one likes them anyways. Yeah, this is a good way to get into the Christmas spirit: bitch about Christmas songs. That's just what I do. I only like certain Christmas songs done by certain people and the ones I like are NEVER on the radio and probably won't ever exist on the radio - except for Jackie Evancho. Her music is fantastic.

This Friday, I'm staying over Shannon's house with Emily and Moose for our annual Christmas sleepover and present exchange. I honestly don't remember how long we've been doing this, but it seems like forever. I love it. I'll be sure to blog about that sometime after Christmas.

Christmas is also at my house (again). I don't mind, I like seeing my family and everything. They're some of my favorite people from my dad's side and we're all going to gamble and make fun of each other and the legal ones will get drunk :) It's SOOOOO much fun. I'm just disappointed about presents this year. I know Christmas is more than presents and whatever [insert Linus from Charlie Brown here] but my family has been lower on money than we've ever been. We actually made more money when I was in pre-school than we do now which is soooo wrong because my dad gets at least 2 raises a year. This sucks. We have hardly anything for each other and we feel horrible about it. I understand why *cough* *cough* the government *cough* *cough* but it's still upsetting. I just feel like I'll feel like shit when people ask about all the things I got for Christmas and I'll be able to count my presents on one hand :(

I just had to get that off my chest. Thanks for reading....bye

Music is My Fucking Life

The title is self-explanatory. I love music so fucking much. My life would be over it I wasn't involved in it.

The only bad thing about this is that I have the worst timing. Ever. I always find music I don't really listen to, but know and the artist has recently come out with a new album. My bad timing is that their tour they're on for said new album is either (1) already over, (2) no where near where I live, or (3) they decided to go on a world tour so they aren't even in the freaking country. This has happened too many times and I'm upset - Paramore, He Is We, ALL CAPS, Evanescence, and the new one! Avril Lavigne. That's right. I've been listening to Avril for 2 days straight now (which is nothing) but I'm probably going to do what I always end up doing with amazing music I can't get enough of: listen to it until me ears BLEED! Or until I find another "bad timing" artist and skulk about the fact I can't see them live. So here I am, listening to Avril Lavigne nonstop and the only way I can do that is off of YouTube. I don't have ANY Zune Points and since I hit a dilemma recently, I promised myself that I was going to buy back everything I lost  in alphabetical order to be fair and organized, so I have to wait FOREVER to get any Avril on my Zune. and No. I refuse to be illegal and download it off Pandora or whatever.

So readers, any music you think I'd be interested in? Please comment. I need to make a list of other songs/artists I need on my Zune so I know what to buy after I restore everything (by everything I mean more that half of my Zune I can't listen to because my license expired on it. BUMMER.)

Peace.

Don't Worry: I'm Alive

Let's start this  blog off by saying SORRY! I honestly don't have an excuse for not blogging. I've been on the computer and bored for several days and it's been months....I'm just a horrible person. Just kidding. I'm just lazy and kinda forgot about this.....Damn.

I would love to wrap up my previous months I haven't documented, but I don't particularly care right now. I am just going to start talking about the future again. Deal with it.

Thanksgiving is this week and I'm very excited; although I won't be seeing any of my extended family. There are problems on my dad's side and my mom said last year, "I remember why we don't come here [my uncle/her brother's house]. Remind me next year that we aren't going again." Thus resulting in my mom, dad, brother, and I to stay home for Thanksgiving. It's ok though. We've done it plenty times before. Plus my godmother might be coming over so that's a plus.

I go back to school next Tuesday so I get a nice, long weekend. I'm probably just going to read and watch Bones. I've been watching Bones A LOT. Since the 7th season recently started at the beginning of this month, I decided I was going to watch EVERY. SINGLE. EPISODE. of Bones. I'm currently at the end of season 4 :D I'll probably start season 5 tonight. Excitement!

Also, on Monday, I will be participating in an annual Girls Study. I get to answer the same questions every year for more money each year. Fantastic right?

I'm kind of scared for next week though. I get surgery D: Don't panic too much. I'm only getting my wisdom teeth out. But they're impacted to hooray for scraping away at my jaw to get 4 teeth....painless right? HA! we still have my brother's in the fridge....It's extremely creepy....

That's all for this week I guess. I'll TRY to come on here regularly again and post maybe once a week. Who knows? Bye!

Carnival

Hm....Before I start this Blog post, I think I've noticed a certain "Late-Night" trend.....because it's 1:10am....huh.....

Anyways, I went to the Carnival today! I wasn't there for too long, just like 2hours. I walked up with my friend, Shannon, because we were going to see our friend Kyle's band play up there. Well we did, but while listening to them, I was named a Teleporter. Apparently, I kept leaving everyone and they didn't know (which I totally admit in doing because I found more people I haven't seen in FOREVER so I had to go and talk to them or at least say hi). Alex, my best friend's boyfriend, kept yelling at me for leaving every 5mins and showing up in a different place. I, personally, thought it was hilarious. So after mingling around with other long lost friends, Shannon and I went home.

Before that, I was SO bored. When I got up (11:30, a habit I need to break) I went downstairs and watched Soul Surfer again before it had to be returned to the movie store. Just one thing: NEW. MOVIE. OBSESSION. Oh my gosh. Soul Surfer is such an AMAZING movie! It is very sad, but it's cute and really REALLY inspiring. I love Bethany Hamilton. Even before this movie, she has always been one of my biggest role models. This movie just made her even more so. She's such a brave person. I wish I was brave like her. I completely recommend this movie, along with a box of Kleenex's.

After the movie, I shit you not, SAT for 2 hours until my mom came home because when she did we had dinner then I left. I literally just SAT. That's how bored I was. I didn't even grab a book or text anyone. I don't know why.

When I came back from the carnival, my mum and I watched Evita. Great movie as well. Confusing absolutely, but very good. I love Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals. They're spectacular. I'm actually still listening to Don't Cry For Me, Argentina. I LOVE that song :)

Go and rent those movies. You won't regret it. Until next time!

Wwwwhhhhhyyyyy

It's 2:20am......I'm in pain......My contacts are burning from wearing them for so long.....WHY CAN'T I GOT UPSTAIRS AND SLEEP?! I'M NOT TIRED. If I do end up going upstairs, I'LL PROBABLY JUST READ. What. am. I. going. to. DO?!



(that was pointless)

Mission Complete

Well I got the design down. Sadly, the header picture I drew at first isn't the one displayed. I still made the header, but it's not the cool and cute graffiti type one here:

(I hope you can see it. If not: http://panthershifter11.deviantart.com/#/d476gtc that's my Deviant Art)

Since I officially have my customized Blog, I guess I should start writing :D

I am NOT doing Beda for August....Ever. It's too hectic. So far this month, the 1st 2 weeks consisted of Home Band Camp and Away Band Camp. Obviously for Away, I wasn't home OR in the access of internet. I was at Washington and Jefferson college with my band. And no, I'm not going to talk about it. it was horrible. I would probably talk a lot about it if we went to Pitt Greensburg like we usually do, but things changed this year. Anyways, that leaves the week that just passed. I have band practice every Wednesday from 3-5 so again....no time. And now school starts on the 29th. Kill me now.

I'm sorta ready for school. I recently talked to my Guidance Counselor about dropping my Honor History class for Regular. All the other classes I'm taking are honors plus basketball starts right after band so I'd be in a living hell for more than half the year. Hope that works out.

Back to band, our practice we had on Wednesday (17) was horrible. I was only there for maybe half an hour to 45mins before I had an emergency run to Ian's (Chiropractor in case you didn't know.) I had already gone Tuesday. But my rib head popped out of place in the middle of practice. I don't know how it's possible. I guess it's because your ribs are attached to cartilage before the bones meet. Not sure. So I went there and Ian told me that I thankfully only had one out but I had another 4 or 5 on the way and that it was a good thing we came when we did or I really wouldn't have been able to breathe. Having a rib out of place feels as if your rib cage is collapsing on your lungs and you can't breathe or move because your in too much pain. Yeah. And I almost had 6! My point exactly. So I sat around Thursday but FRIDAY, I had to go back and see Ian because another 2 popped out. Mostly, the muscles around my rib cage are sore and that's why it hurts so bad, but still. It's a killer. I feel like if they pop out (which I actually think I have another out right now.....yippy) that they'll puncture my lungs. Even though they pop in the opposite direction where if they broke and went far enough it would be sticking out my back, not inside of me. I still feel like my lungs are in danger. It SUCKS. I have to sit around with ice on my back and not move. All I do is sit and read and trust me, that's not exactly a bad thing, but I would have liked to get this new blog started a while ago. I'm not even supposed to be at the computer because having my arms out typing and using the mouse aggravates my ribs even more which I can feel. Imagine having all of your rib heads out of place......not even thinking about the pain and uncomfortableness, but the fact of: would they even be attached? Like would your rib cage start to fall off? I think I'll ask Ian next time I visit (which will probably be Monday....

Until next time (or something exciting happens). Oh my gosh! Something exciting will happen! Tuesday is Animal Friends, Wednesday I'm getting my hair redyed red and having band from 3-5 (if I don't die first), and all next week is the Carnival! I love the Carnival even if it is filled with ghetto gangsters and posers....It's still fun :)

New Start

Hello! This is my new Blog. I'll put a link in the bottom to my old one and vise versa.

The template I have and design is only temporary. Later (like a lot later) I'll add a drawing I did to the title and redesign everything and make it customized. It's gonna look cool (I hope).

I finished the drawing today. I just need to color it really nicely :) Hope you'll like it.

That's all for now. Short Blog.
