"I'll buy these and these alone!"

Yeah, right. Although, I did have a lot of fun shopping today! Forever 21 has THE cutest summer clothes! I got tons of stuff for a very little amount! I also got to see my laptop today up close and it is just so adorable! And, bonus! Any student buying a laptop for college gets a free iPod Touch! Yay! Anyways, me and Meesh went to the beach yesterday and didn't get a single burn! It was a gorgeous day and the water was so nice and warm. The only downside was that it was filled to the brim with people and these kids behind us were playing baseball over us! LOL! Okay, I'm gonna go hang up new additions to my closet and I will post more later! A bientot, loves!

"It would make my haircut look more expensive..."

I feel like a totally different woman! I went to the amazing genius, Mrs. C, yesterday afternoon, and she did a bang-up job on my hair! It looks absolutely stunning. I didn't cut it at all because I've made that mistake before, and I do not intend to do it again. But, I decided to go darker with my hair color. Much, much darker! I love it! I don't know why I never thought of this sooner. Anyway, aside from a great hair day, yesterday was one of the saddest days in history because the world lost two amazing people: Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. Horrible. I watched both TV specials last night, and they were very emotional and very moving. Rest in peace. Tomorrow, I am going to be busy, busy, busy! And, I cannot wait to go to the carnival tomorrow night! I've never missed one yet! Au revoir for now, loves!

P.S.

In my state of panic, I forgot some important news! Confessions of a Shopaholic came out on DVD today! Yay! Of course, I rushed out to get it! LOL! I cannot wait to watch it! Au revoir, loves!

I may very well be living across the street from the next Columbine kid.

Okay, I was asked on a date tonight by this kid who lives across the street from me. And, you know, I naturally said no because one: I hardly know him and two: he's a lot younger than me. So, I tell him no in a nice way and then he goes on this long shpeel about how he wishes he could leave this world for a better place (please don't kill yourself!), how he wanted to blow up his old school because the kids were mean to him, and how he wants to kill me because I'm beautiful on this outside but ugly on the inside. Um, that is far from the truth. I don't have to go out with you if I don't want to. And, no wonder you've never had a girlfriend if you go around talking like that! You probably freak people out! You certainly freaked me out! Anyway, I'm gonna double bolt my door and windows tonight because now he's got me totally freaked out! At least someone was nice enough to come over and comfort me when I was literally shaking. Thanks, love!

Anyway, on a happier note! The sleepover with Mear-Bear on Sunday was sooooooo much fun! I got yet another person addicted to Legally Blonde! LOL! OMJ, we stayed up till four in the morning just catching up and having a blast! I heart her! Okay, more later, loves. If I'm still alive. I'm not even joking.

"Talk to me, dance with me. You're the spotlight, girl!"

Just got back from a very full schedule today. I am totally exhausted. Those little pink Benadryl pills are stronger than they look! I was bombarded with college plan questions today, which made me feel a bit overwhelmed, but I guess that it's good that I have people who know what they're doing helping me figure out important stuff like that. Anyhoo, I was told that I need to find ways to stay active now that dance is over. So, I was thinking that I could take my uncle's adorable puppy for jogs around my development. I think that it would be sooooo much fun! As for college, all activities are free for the students, so I will probably join the dance team and take a weekly yoga class. Should be fun! Ta-ta for now, loves!

Shake the glitter.

On the way home from Philly yesterday, I figured something out. I am terrified about what this year will bring me. Aside from having to attend a brand new school in a brand new city with brand new people, I will have to totally change my life in more ways I thought possible. The scariest change, I think, is having to go to a totally different hospital with doctors and nurses that I've never met before. I will have to leave behind the smiling faces and caring nurses that I've grown to love. Don't get me wrong, I am very grateful for this opportunity, but there is always that little nagging voice in the back of my head that keeps telling me that I can't do it. And that scares me.

Almost died of boredom today!

It's amazing how fast you can become bored when you have nowhere to go and nothing to do! It was way to cold to go swimming today, and I was a bit bummed out! Oh well, maybe tomorrow will be nicer. Nothing really happened today. I woke up at 2:00 and my whole day was practically ruined! I hate sleeping through half the day. It just makes you more tired. Okay, well, I'm gonna go watch Family Guy and hopefully catch up on my Elle magazines that have been neglected! Au revoir, loves!

Don't want to say goodbye.

Something just hit me today. It's a strange little thought, but it's devastating to me personally. I will never be able to open my locker anymore. D-1509. Those would just look like a jumble of numbers to someone else, but to me, it was practically my home for the past four years. Now, some little freshman is going to be lucky enough to get that locker and call it home (hopefully it's a girl because she will find plenty of pink rhinestones and glitter on the bottom of it!) Sunday had to be one of the hardest days of my life. I said goodbye to the people I've gotten to know and love over the course of four years. The hardest people to say goodbye to would be my Kairos family. We were practically in tears. I know that this year will bring all new experiences to me along with new friends, new subjects, and a new place to call "home." My high school experience has given me many wonderful memories. But, that's all they are now. Distant memories. And they will live in my heart forever, along with the people that I have grown to love.

A fever you can't sweat out.

So, how about I haven't written in like a week? Yeah, sorry about that! I was feeling great on Sunday night when I got back from the beach, but then all of a sudden a flu snuck up on me Monday morning! I caught it from school and I thought I had dodged a bullet when I left, but I guess not! I was in the hospital from Monday to Tuesday, but they put me on these pills to stifle the symptoms, and I am feeling tons better! This was a really sucky week to get sick though because it's my graduation weekend! Okay, we had practice on Thursday morning, and that went by quickly and painlessly. Then that night we had Senior Awards Night. I got to wear my really cute Tracy Feith dress from Target and I got the English and pre-calc awards. I know, I was shocked about the math one too! Anyway, yesterday we had our alumni breakfast and a second practice which also went by quickly. The only thing that sucks was that I missed Project Graduation last night because I felt that I would get worse by staying up all night. I'm upset that I missed it, but I think it was the right thing to do. Okay, I have to go get ready for the Baccalaureate mass tongight, and then tomorrow is finally graduation! Au revoir loves!

Sand, sun, surf...and sunburn!

So, me and my fave cousin, Meesh, went to the beach for the first time this summer and it was so much fun! Except for the fact that we are both lying on her bed in sheer pain right now from a really bad sunburn! Oh, well! It was well worth it! Ugh, it feels sooooooo nice knowing that I don't have to get up tomorrow at six in the morning to go to school! This is why I love summer! Okay, that's pretty much all that went down today. Au revoir my lovelies!

P.S.~ To the lady screaming at the girl across the beach that accidentally showed her boobs today, I don't think it's helping if your kids develop a mouth like yours! Just sayin'!

My first real weekend.

It feels so good to actually relax on a Saturday and not have to worry about homework or tests or projects. This is why I love the summer. Anyway, I'm still pretty bummed out over my concert being cancelled, but I'm just hoping now that it will make them FINISH THEIR RECORD FASTER!!!! Well, that's pretty much all I have to say tonight. I should go get ready because my cousin is watching me type this over my shoulder and needs her fix of the computer because she hasn't been on all day! Au revoir loves!

P.S.~ Who knew that you could find such a cute sundress in Target! Everyone should check out their Tracy line! He has some very cute things!

I hate my life right now.

The concert that I bought tickets for to see my boys in July has been unexpectedly CANCELLED!!!!!!!!!! I am so pissed off right now! (Not at the guys. I could never be mad at them.) But I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo mad! I'm buying myself my Louboutin shoes as my source of comfort after I graduate! Grrrrrrrr!

"As we go on, we remember all the times we've had together. And as our lives change from whatever, we will still be friends forever."

These are some of the most powerful and soul-shattering words that I've heard. Today was perhaps the saddest day of my life. It was my last day of high school. I mean, seriously, I even teared up cleaning out my locker and looking at '1509' for the last time! It is so sad! If I was this much of a wreck today, I can only imagine how bad I'll be at the actual graduation! On the bright side, I can have a nice long uninterrupted sleep tonight! And, my weekend is looking pretty fun! More later, loves!

One more day.

Tomorrow, it will be official. My high school career will be over. Forever. I know that I've been rushing this week along, but now that I think about it, I can't believe that I will soon be leaving all of the things that I have grown to love.

- Activity periods spent in the art room with one of my most influential art teachers and my best friends
- My entire Kairos family that always comes to me with open arms to let me know that I am loved
- Cafeteria runs with my Tay-Tay, avoiding the hall Nazis because we may have been wearing "illegal shoes"
- Mr. L's constant loving insults and hilarious jokes
- The funniest "ginger" I have ever met
- JQ's amazing card tricks that continue to stump me
- Acting like a goof with my BFF in art class instead of focusing on our work

While I am writing this, my eyes are beginning to well up. These past four years have been the best of my life. I don't want to say goodbye. I will miss these, and many, many other aspects of my time in high school. I love you class of 2009. Remember: Doubt the first. Cry the second. Love the third. Live the fourth.

Ticket to Ride.

Yay, yay, yay, yay, yay, yay! My PATD tickets came in the mail today! Yay! I can't wait till the concert! My boys! I also talked to my roomie at FIT for the first time today. She seems super nice, and I can't wait to meet her! I have a feeling that this year is gonna be so much fun! Okay, I must go get in the shower now because I went to bed way to late last night and I was exhausted this morning! Au revoir, darlings!

California dreamin'...

This week is going by soooooo slow! I cannot believe that it's only Tuesday! This is my last week as a high school senior. I know, I know, I should be living it up. But, it's kinda hard to do that with all this last minute work! It's getting a little better though. I'm done with English and art, and I'm almost done with religion. However, that trig test was perhaps the hardest math test I ever had to take. I really hope I did well on it, but I asked my teacher and she said it shouldn't affect my grade that much. Fingers crossed because I really don't want to take that final. Three more days of high school left! I'm really excited!

"It's just another manic Monday"

From the minute I stepped onto the front steps of my school this morning, I could just tell what kind of day I was going to have. And, boy, was I right. Some lady came bolting out of the door that I was standing in front of and almost knocked me out, and she barely apologized! Ugh! Next was math class. My quiz that I had to make up was good, but then I had to do 13 IMPOSSIBLE problems to study for the test tomorrow. I hate trig! Religion was fine, activity was fine, and art was fine. But, then we get to English class. I was out on Friday, which means that I missed a huge chunk of the movie that we're watching, so I hope to God that it's on youtube. I need to know that along with everything else on the Victorian Age for my test tomorrow. And, I cannot blow either of these tests because I DO NOT WANT TO TAKE ANY FINALS! God! It's my last week of my senior year. My uncle's right. I should feel like I'm floating down the Lazy River at Hurricane Harbor right now!
