Hey!
Okay you guys, so I've heard you complain about why I haven't posted a blog for quite a while now, so here I am :D
I'm in jagtime currently, and grateful that I have access to a computer everyday- I can print things, write blogs, research, check on things, study...and then of course, sleep since my teacher's so nice :D
If you can't tell, the reason I feel grateful and am using smiley faces is because I'm in a pretty good mood after history class. We watched the Pachabel Rant, which is hilarious...and also watched this, since Mr. Crochet was supposedly explaining to us the influence of classical music on the modern world. xD I liked it :)
I also have a meet today which I don't have to swim, because no one in my two lanes are swimming, basically, unless they're possible replacements. And I don't feel hungry and we're having sushi today and it's Friday and I had a bagel and some good juice and white fudge pretzels thanks to Samantha & Calvin :D
One of my new favorite quotes is [we read it in history class]:
"All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets."
We got to read a lot of quotes from this Voltaire guy...with no first name? Idk, Voltaire is apparently a pseudonym, but I see a lot of insight in him.
As you can see in that quote, it's got that sarcastic wit.
"Though I disagree with what you say, I will defend to the death your right to say it."
"Every man is guilty of all the good he didn't do."
"The secret of being boring is to say everything."
I believe in all those things :)
And that last quote reminds me of the book The Catcher in the Rye, which states at the very end...um, I don't remember exactly but something along the lines of "Don't ever tell anybody anything because if you do, then you'll start missing everybody." They don't relate, but idk, it just reminded me of it. Sounds the same? Idk.
It's a good way for him to have ended that book. I should probably reread it.
I also have to read Inkheart, because the movie comes out next week -_-
And I'm in the process of reading About a Boy - Nick Hornby [there's already a movie based on that with Hugh Grant, and I love Hugh Grant...and Nick Hornby's writing]
and Watchmen - Alan Moore [So I can watch the movie in March, and then I have to also read V For Vendetta so I can watch that too]
Other books to read [because they are movies] include:
The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown
Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen
Journey to the Center of the Earth - Jules Verne
Fight Club - Chuck Palahniuk
It really surprises [and possibly scares?] me that I knew all those book titles and their authors by heart without having to look them up O_O
There's not really anything at all to say, which is why I haven't been blogging, just so you know. I feel content with life, I suppose. Kind of miss hanging out with my friends. It'd be nice to live around here, so I could do so more often...since I think they do about everyday.
Lately I've been feeling more nostalgic than ever- I really miss the summer. The whole aura and vibe of it still lives in my heart and it aches to think that my life feels so diminished and pathetic since those times which were just so amazingly fun...when I was so happy.
Makes me question why I'm still here.
Because back then I felt like there was just so much reason to live. So much confusion over why death seemed like a liable, possible solution at all. But now, idk.
Everything's just become a bit too routine, dull and boring for me to handle. I've been having constant headaches this past week, and felt like throwing up a few times. I have no idea what's wrong with me. Maybe it has something to do with being sick...
If I haven't told you, I might be moving soon? Or so my mother says.
And honestly, I do want to. I want a way to start over, maybe be someone who is more outgoing or more fun or interesting or something...because for some reason, I feel like I can't be that here. I want something new, not the same old people doing the same old things ALL THE TIME. Come on, surprise me!
How can one live without change?
Most of my friends have lived in the same house/apartment or whatever for years and years, if not their whole life. I don't have the stength or tolerence for that stability. I need something to look forward to, or dread, or simply to think about. Calvin, the reason I never have anything on my mind is simply because there is nothing to BE on my mind. No one and nothing interests me any more [no offense]! I'm just so easily bored.
Sometimes I think it's because I'm used to moving, and the house I'm currently living in is the longest I've stayed in one place [4 years].
Uh...the bell rung. I'll finish this later!

Back! Um. I don't really know what to say but I want to show you some pictures I drew on my tablet :D
They're my illustrated dreams.
The first is from a dream I had a while ago, in what is supposedly Samantha's house, or it's the house she owns in my dreams...and I'm sitting on the couch when all of a sudden Kevin and Sam come in from the sides of the room singing Sing Out - Cat Stevens to me. xD

And then this one's from a more recent dream, which I'll elaborate on in the future...where I'm in this huge, gigantic- possibly larger than a gymnasium- room which is made of all moonbounce material. It's a huge moonbounce, but it's filled with water, and thus Jonah called it a "Poolbounce." xD This picture is a scene I remember specifically, while I'm swimming, I see Anna standing in the shallow water and I stop to say hi, and she tells me "Shh." There are a few little children swimming in circles around her, and I'm confused and ask "What?" But once again, she just answers "Shhhh." And I woke up.

I'm working on more. I'm bored at home all day. xD
Kay, bye guys :)
