8:13 pm - ~¤~ I Would Die... ~¤~
I asked you if I was *fat*, you said yes of course.

I asked you if you wanted to be with me *forever*, you said no.

I asked you if you would cry if I walked *away*, you said no.

I had heard too much, and need to leave and
as I walked away.

You grabbed my arm and told me to stay.

You said...

Your not pretty, your ~beautiful~.

The only thing fat, or big, about you is your ~heart~.

I don't want to be with you forever, I ~need~ to be with you forever.

And, baby, I wouldn't cry if you walked away...

~I would die~.

9:18 pm - ~¤~ Mother ~¤~

My mother is really begining to make me upset. She never listens to what I have to say. I mean, If I come into the office while you're on the computer and want to talk to you, you don't shoe me away because you're playing one of your oh-so-important word racer games online. How long is it going to take for you to realize that I DONT CARE IF IT'S RATED!! I'm sorry if I always thought that your daughter was more important to you then some internet game rateing. I'm sorry.

So today, after school I let you on b/c I just didn't care. Then after swimming, I just wanted to get on. It was 9 oclock and I would have been off in 45 mins anyway. Yes, when you say "15 minutes" I'll get upset. She had been on since I got home from school and didn't even GO TO WORK!

I mean, i know my parents "split up" what...a few months ago? It drives the whole family crazy that she's always on the computer, and that her games are more important than anything. So when I try and talk to her, she doesnt ever actually listen. Then when I get her to listen, I have to yell, and I get in trouble. So she ended up not letting me get on at all. Thank you, mother.

So I found the loophole. I hooked up the old computer and pulled out the router + cord and just used that. So I'm posting from there real quick while I sit here and cry like I usually do. These are the times I wish that Ryan were home. I always pictured that when he had his license, we could just drive away together. Get away from everything, especially my mom and sometimes dad. It wouldn't matter where we went. Even to the gas station up the corner for icies. Even to..canada for all I care. But he's not here and I'm left to deal with this myself. It's a battle I must fight alone.

With my mom not loving my dad anymore, and my dad using passive agression to try and get me to not love my mom anymore(he doens't know he does it), I'm just getting torn apart from the inside out. I don't know how much more I an take...</a>

10:52 pm - ~¤~ Holiday Dance ~¤~
Eww, this dance was pretty fucked up :( It started with me just chilaxing and it was fun. Then Brenan Mcgee asked me to MY freshman formal. I had to say maybe because I'm still kind of...in the middle with someone? I think? I dunno but I couldn't say yes, but I couldn't say no...

Well multiple times he came up behind me and grabbed my waist and got all up on me dancing and stuff. It was kind of uncomfortable for me, only because of the way we met. He's my big brother's best friend's little brother...If that makes any sense... Well anyway I danced with him and Marqueese. I don't like either of them THAT way, so I'm not too worried right now.

Later Brennan tried to slow dance with me. I told him that I don't slow dance. The truth? I've never slow danced before. I'm saving that. I've had my first fast dance, and my frist kiss, and I hooked up with someone before. None of them meant anything to me. I'm saving my first slowdance to be something special. Maybe at the formal? God I hope so...

Joe broke up with Alison. I guess it's better than going out with her when he didn't want to? Ok, it definately is in my book. The downside? HE'S TAKING EMILY WRIGHT TO THE FORMAL! Ughh... I can't stand that girl. She is such a bitch to me. Not to mention two-faced...

Oh well. I'm actually rather tired but I'm not sleeping yet because I can't! I've got wayy to much on my mind...

7:53 pm - ~¤~ Swim Meet ~¤~
Today our team swam against Upper Darby. I knew that we wouldn't win, just because I knew that their team is awsome :o
Anyway, usually I only swim one event. Today, however, Ted put me in THREE! My first emotion was nervious, then I got excited, like whoopty doo! Once it sunk in, it was kind of a questioning feeling. "Why me?" You know, the whole self doubt thing.

So anyway, I swam my first event shortly after diving was over. It was the 100 Free. That's four laps free style. I got a 1:06 as a time and... fifth? I'm not too sure.

Then, after a break during the 500 I rested up for my next event which was the 200 Freestyle relay. That's when four people swim a total of eight laps, two laps each. I did alright, though I was still a bit tired from my previous event. As I was getting out, I felt a little sting on my left big toe. As I was heading back over to my team, I felt it hurt just a little bit more and looked down to see that my toe was bleeding all over the deck. I got really scarred and went into a little nook with some of my teammates so that coach wouldn't see it. Well, one of them got him against my will. He told me to clean it up and let him look at it. So anyway I must have sliced my tow open on the edge of the pool as I got out. Well it stung for a while, and Ted got me a bandaid, but I was alright.

So then it was just a matter of time until my last event, which was the 400 Free relay. That's the same as the 200, but with four laps a person, sixteen laps total. I dove in and my toe stung immediately, but in the end I was fine. I'm worried that it will hurt in my shoe tomorrow and at the dance tomorrow night, but I'll be alright :)

BTW, we lost the meet ;)

9:29 pm - ~¤~ New Layout ~¤~
So there's a new layout. It's Strawberry Delight <33 I love it. So it's been a while. I'm gonna TRY and get actice again =P It's hard with all this swimming stuff, though. So, anyway. Right now a lot is going on. My main concern is the freshman formal + alex.

The freshman formal's coming up and, as expected, I don't have a date. I want a date, is the problem. I've been waiting night and day for this certain guy from HC to call me, since he asked me for my #, so that I could ask him to the formal, but he never did. So I've got another guy in mind, but I don't think that he'd say yes. =/ Slight dilema.

Alex has been seriously PMSing or something since tuesday. She's been irritated at me a lot and I don't understand what I did :( So I'm just trying to back off and let her have some space for a bit.

Swim Meet tomorrow. Upper Darby. Yay I'm gonna see Anne. And then another one on Fri. Agnus Irwin/Haverford School. There's a dance on Fri as well. Shall I go? I'm not sure...

9:25 pm - ~¤~ Cigars! ~¤~
"So the guy bough a case of expensive cigars and had them insured against fire for $15,000. Next thing you know, the insurance company gets a claim, saying all the cigars were lost in a series of small fires..."

-"..He smoked them?"

"Yeah. But the judge ruled that the company guaranteed the cigars as insurable against fire, without defining acceptable fire.
"So the insurance company paid out the money, and then had him arrested for twenty-four counts of arson."

-"The judge threw out the case, right?"

"The judge sentanced him to twenty-four consecutive one year terms."

11:19 pm - ~¤~ Quizzes! ~¤~
You Are 40% Boyish and 60% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.
You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.


You Are Changing Leaves

Pretty, but soon dead.


You are Milk Chocolate

A total dreamer, you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds.
You often think of the future, and you are always working toward your ideal life.
Also nostelgic, you rarely forget a meaningful moment... even those from long ago.

6:19 pm - ~¤~ Grandpa ~¤~
Grandpa was a story teller and could sing like a lark.
Grandpa loved people, would sit up till it was dark.
If anyone was around, he'd have a story or two.
Or he would turn on the radio to get another view.
There was no TV in those days of yore.
It was the 20s and 30s- who knew what was in store?
If he could see the world of today,
He'd get down on his knees and how he would pray.
To find peace in the world, less violence and strife.
To love one another, get those guns out of our life.
My Grandpa- and I bet yours too,
Would hope and pray these things will come true.
But now that you're a Grandpa too,
Is there anything at all that we can do?
To make our young Grandkis see what's ahead.
To try to be like Grandpa, and the life that he lead.
-Betty Williams

<33 RIP Thomas Williams. 11/5/05.

I Shall Wear Purple

When I am an old woman
I shall wear purple,
With a red hat which doesn't go and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and
summer gloves. And satin sandals, and say we've
no money for butter. I shall sit down on the pavement
when I'm tired. And gobble up samples in shops and
press alarm bells. And run my stick along public
railings. And make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain. And pick
flowers in other people's gardens. And learn to
spit...
But, maybe I ought to practice a little now? So
people who know me are not too shocked or surprised
when suddenly I am old and start to wear
purple.

7:11 pm - ~¤~ Busy Busy Busy! ~¤~
I havn't posted in so long, sorry! Well, I've been busy and this coming weekend is even busier!

Fri- Pep Rally in school periods 6 and 7. I have to get up in front of the whole school and dance! Eep! They're making us shimmy and do the robot. Talk about embarassing! Oh well, safety in numbers! If we all look like retards together it'll be fun! And don't forget Cathleen's advice on "Let's Groove". "HIPS AND ASSS!!!" <333

Then Fri night is the Homecoming football game. Should be pretty fun! I'm looking foward to preforming for alot of my friends, even though I'm not that great.

Sat- Saturday should be alot of fun. My mom's friend Val is coming to stay with me so I have rides and everything. So on sat we're going shopping to get shoes to match my dress for the homecoming dance that night! Yay! People might come over before to get ready or just for pics or whatever. Either way it'll be fun!

Sun- We have a confirmation trip from around 11 am to 4 pm. I have no idea where we are going. They basically shove us in a car and drive us somewhere. We'll know where we're going once we get there for the most part. It's a little confusing.

Much love from the busy beaver,

Footprints in the Sand

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.


Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.


When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.


He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.


He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.


This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:


"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."

The LORD replied:


"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
