HEY!
Long time no blog! So, especially now, at the time of olympics and with shows starting up again, I had a question: what TV do you watch? What’s your favorite show? Do you watch olympics? Sports? What show do you hate most?

I’ve gotten extraordinarily interested in Doctor Who. I usually hate SciFi, but this show is AMAZING. Does anyone else love this show? The Tenth Doctor is absolutely amazing and the plot is actually very wonderful. I cried at the season finale.

Other than that, I’ve been a fan of Gilmore Girls, Heroes, and the 10th kingdom (I suppose that’s a miniseries, but still. For fans, it’s airing on Tv again…finally).

I’ve also watched a ton of movies online lately, it’s far more fun, and easy. And those fan videos… aaahhh…

I can’t LIVE through sports. I can’t do it, I’ve tried. maybe it’s acquired, and I’d probably like them if I really tried. Reality shows annoy me too.

So? What do you like?

Now, I love reading. And I do it often, even over the summer.

The only thing that really bothers me is that my town requires you to read a certain book, take notes, and take a test on it at the beginning of the new school year. I wouldn’t mind this if they were good books. Not to be mean, but they choose the easiest and most boring books ever. Last year I was blessed to find a great one. This year, not so much. The options are books I read years ago, and didn’t really find challenging.

There are so many books I would love to read. Why can’t they make The Looking Glass Wars selected reading? (see this post to see that they’re one of my obsessions, and take a look at the comments: the official website commented :D) Or Gone With The Wind? Or Pride and Prejudice? Or the Tenth kingdom?

No. Instead they try to find books that are current and ‘cool’ but not too ‘trashy’ and ‘teeny’.

Sadly, they fail at this. *eye roll* hopefully the book I’m choosing out of the possible candidates will be all right. Anyone else have this problem at their school?

I have tried countless sports over the years, countless. As in too many to count. I’ve done cross country, soccer, tennis, swimming, basketball, biking (kind of), frisbe and others among those. I’ve stuck with swimming and now I’m trying something new: FENCING.

All right, all right, I’ll admit. I’m doing it mainly so that I can say ‘my name is inigo montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die’ because the princess bride is rad. But will I be able to? Or will the no-sports monster kick in again.

How about you? Do you have any problems with sports? Now that it’s summer I thought it’d be an appropriate time to ask.

I think I shall take up blogging again. Simply because I have wwaaaayyy too much time on my hands. Still, posts will be posted very messed up like. yeah.

Sooo… my summer is awesome, it was sooo hot when we visited the desert, ah. How’s everyone’s?

Tamapaki/sweetdigression is officially closed. For how long? Who knows. But we all saw this coming. I just don’t like blogging anymore. Bye for now

Well hello
It’s been a while my friends, a LONG WHILE. Still it’s my birthday and I’ve recovered from the shock of surgery. Lately I’ve been more active on my tenth kingdom forum and youtube.

PS: remember to wish John F Kennedy a happy birthday too

Today I had sinus surgery. Let me start.

First off, in the morning I drank orange juice. We then proceeded to the hospital, where I waited an hour then changed and told them when I had drunken last. Turns out I wasn’t allowed to have orange juice, so it was moved. We walked around, bought me a hoodie and then waited in the hospital. There we watched animal planet where, in my anxiety, I went through almost an entire box of tissues crying over a dead guinea pig. We then went as a man told us what the surgery would be about and then… it started. Laughing gas was put at me (did not make me laugh, though when a lame joke was told I laughed without understanding or even attempting to understand the joke) and an IV stuck in me. Going to sleep is nothing like the movies. They tell your mom to kiss you good bye (you feel as if you’re going to sleep and never come back) and then you get warm… there’s no “wow I feel sleepy…” it’s more like “wow I feel.” and then you’re knocked out.

Hour or so later, I woke up in the same room, sure that I had woken up mid surgery. They assured me it was over, I assumed they were lying and would put me back to sleep.

They didn’t. Pain Pain Pain. And after that, I realized I was swearing without meaning to. I NEVER swear, but I think the language got very… angry. The nurses told me to be quiet, that there were babies here (as if they would understand)…. and then the pain stopped and here I am. On painkillers. Crap. All because I had mucus drainage.

I do get to skip gym though.

I will learn to make a wordpress theme. I’m positive I will, the fact that I lack the patience has something to do with my not having one already made. Until then, if anyone can find a website with good wordpress themes that can be edited, it’s much appreciated.

… that somehow I could have any ten things I want… what would I choose? (based partially on Clem’s entry) Btw: this is, of course, assuming that I can have all these without going to the mall, which I am not too fond of.

1) First Off: a Guitar of very expensive price. I love playing guitar and I hate seeing all these overpriced guitars without owning one (yes, I have a guitar and I play, but it’s not the best):P
2) $100+ iTunes card. I was seriously pondering just listing all the CDs I want, but that would be seriously useless since I love music so much.
3) These shoes. Recently found and I LOVE them.
4) Alice Tee. It is so awesome I always loved this stuff (by that I mean Disney stuff).
5) Recycle Tee. I think it would be HILARIOUS to come to school in this (lots of people are very unaware and very un-environmental in my school. I’m not going to judge or anything but I adore the tee)
6) This Tee and This One.. Pretty
7) Gray Hoodie. Unsure of why, but I really like this. A lot.
8 ) at least one pair of converse low tops. I usually wear high tops, but I really do like some low tops. I have no idea how to link exact pairs so I’ll leave it at that.
9) Free People backpack. Recently found this lovely store and it was actually this bag that caught my eye.
10) These Pants. I wear all types of jeans, but these skinny jeans are very nice looking

So… that’s me!

Okay, I am doing a remodel of the site. anyone that can point me to any EASY (VERY EASY) wordpress layout tutorial gets hugs and comments :D… or a new blogging script. Wordpress is very annoying.

…with a green streak in my hair. what?? It was a kind of accident, I cut my hair and wanted to put a drop of blue in it and now…green, voila! My, what looks I have been getting. The way I see it is if I get good grades and don’t get piercings or tattoos (no offense to anyone who has these, they’re just not for my age) I don’t see the problem with partly green hair.

So, how is everyone? HAPPY SPRING!

Time to get organized, damn it!
