I feel miserable

"I feel so miserable without you; It's almost like having you here." Stephen Bishop. I don't think I understand this quote at all. Bishop kind of condricts themselves. How can you feel miserable when there not there but u feel as if they are there? Maybe I'm retarded and I'm not thinking out of the box enough I have no idea. When I deeply think about this quote I think of Maxwell my cousin who died. I start to feel sad and when I get sad I can almost see him and feel him around. I miss him so much but It's been a long time since he died but it still hurts. I know that my Aunt jodi who is maxwell's mother still thinks about him everyday and is still very sad when it comes around to his birthday and his death. I feel sad that one day I might forget about him but I dont want to at all. I want my children to think of him and remember him as a great cousin. I miss him so much and I love him a lot but I'm still afraid I might forget about him.

Where is good

"Where is the good in goodbye?" The Music Man. I wish I could of seen this musical because I bet it was really good. Also I see the point because where is the good in saying goodbye. How is a person leaving good unless you really don't like them and want them to leave, which sometimes I want people to leave. Anyways back to the music man I hear that the costumes were insane and the girl's hair were huge. I can just imagine Stevie's hair all teased and giant. Being one the only person in my group of friends that didn't do the musical kind of sucked but the musical was never my thing. During April vacation though I wish I had done it because I always got bored because my friends were never around to hang out. There was always track practice but they would only come to the first practice then they would have the late practices which sucked. If I did the musical I bet I would have been pulling my hair out from stress. I don't think I could have dealt with the Waggoners especially Mrs. Waggoner because she's a hard ass. Throughout my whole high school career she has been looking down on me because I was never like Missy or Stevie. I was never a great singer or someone who sucked up to her because I'm not that kind of person.

Q and A

Q:"What do you call a person who keeps on talking when people are no longer interested? A: A teacher. I defiantly agree with this quote. I lose interest when most of my teachers are talking because they have nothing really catching to say to me or the class. Like Demo's and Mr. Hughes they just talk and talk but I never actually listen to them at all. When the whole class is doing something else or sleeping I think the teachers should understand that they are boring the hell out of the students. After a while its a know fact that kids lose their attention span. I know my attention span is like 20 minutes and thats it for the period. After 20 minutes I lose my focus and then if a teacher is still talking I don't understand anymore. Then the next time I see the teacher I never understand what they are talking about at all. Demo's and Hughes always talk and the next day I always have tons of question to ask them or in Hughes's case I just try to roll with the punches as much as possible.

window and world

"And through the window, there's a whole world. And I'm watching all the people, all the faces and places I have yet to go!"Luce. I agree with this quote because it's true When you look out of a window there are so many places that you can see and imagine. When I look at the window I find myself starring off into a different world and I find myself in a trans. of some kind. When I'm mad I look out a window and all my problems go away some how. I loving looking out a window when it's nice and sunny and imagining myself to be in a tropical island where it's nice and sunny and the water is splashing over the rocks. I usually find myself in the Bahamas because my aunt went down there and she said it was amazing. She said it was nice and sunny and the dolphins were always around. I want to have my hunny moon down there because I bet it's a real romantic place to be with someone who you love and are going to spend the rest of your life with. I also want to go to France when I'm older just to have a huge culture shock and see the many important tourist sites there. Those are the things I think about when I'm looking out a window but then I always realize that I'm back in reality and I'm still stuck in Maine.

stupid class

"Hey, I'm back to learn your stupid class about garbage!" Kristen Wiig on SNL. I bet every student has said this about a class sometime or another. I know i've said it about some of my classes like chemistry. Chemistry with Mr. demos is the worst thing ever because he doesn't teach us about anything so I think his class is a waste of my time and everyone else's. Every time I walk into his class room I just groan because he's an idiot. He doesn't have a teaching degree in chemistry. He majored in physics and thats not chemistry at all. When ever we take a test for him we have a review day but in that review day he teaches us something new that's going to be on the test. When the test day comes his wording of the questions throw everybody off. On the first test we took I answered a question that i remembered the book told us and he marked it wrong and he said he wanted his answer and not the books answer. Also we do tons of labs and he doesn't grade them fairly at all. I did a lab and i got a 75 on it then dustin took my lab and took some of the information and got a 85 and they were basically the same thing only his was worded a little bit differently.Mr Demos frustrates me and I'm always telling him on his tests that I hate chemistry with a passion and I'm only taking it because of college.

hot dogs

"hot dogs, while charming in their natural tube steak form, could certainly stand to have a little bit more personality."Octdog Advertisement. This quote is the best think ever and of course I agree with it. Hot dogs are so bland and they do need something to spice them up a little. they are mad out of the grossest things but I must admit the taste good. I like the red hot dogs better than the brown ones personally. The red ones are crisper and they keep the juices in better. I think the red dye attracts me to eat them. There are some red hot dogs that are gross though. I do like ball park franks. My favorite kind of hot would be a red hot dog with tons of mustard and a little bit of ketchup. I can't eat hot dogs with a hot dog roll all the time because the bread gets stuck in my braces and food in my braces make me angry.

magic

"It's magic you know. Never believe it's not so"Pilot. I don't really understand this quote but I've had many quotes that I didn't understand this year. The word magic makes me think of the song Do you believe in magic from a young girls heart. I really don't like that song but hey it gets stuck in my head very often. i really don't believe in magic its all fake. When I was younger though and there was a magic show I would be there to see all the cool things but when I got older and found out that they were fake I stopped liking magicians. I remember one year at the lilac festival there was a magician and he was so corny. His tricks were lame and nothing that made me want to go ooo and aww until he put a milk carton full of milk into a paper bag and then said his magic words and then he pulled out a glass of chocolate milk. That was pretty amazing I must say. My favorite magician is harry Hudini. He was amazing even though he's dead he still paved the way for new magicians. The one trick i wish I could find out how they did was the making an elephant disappear i mean you can't really make an elephant move out behind something because the audience would see it right?

Free write

Well I'm sitting in math doing my journal enteries because I finished my test. I have no idea what i'm going to talk about but I guess I'll talk about track. Track is going great. I haven't qualified for states yet but I hope I will by the end of the season. So far I have gained the team 5 points. I haven't come in first yet but I have had a lot of seconds and thirds. I've made a lot of personal records the most was in shot put. Last year I got 23' 4" this year though I have gotten 24' 8". My goal this year is at least 25' but I doubt I will get that. To get to states I need to each 27'. I also throw the jave but I'm not very good at that. I only get about 59'. I use to run in the 100 meter dash but I gave up on that because our team is filled with long distance runners and sprinters. Last week we had a track meet and stevie couldn't run the 2 mile so i told coach that I would run it for her but that was a big mistake. I got overheated and a major headache. I thought I was going to pass out. Nte had to hold me up nd walk me to my water and a chair.

"Saying goodbye, why is it sad? Makes us remember the good times we've had. Much more to say, foolish to try. It's time for saying goodbye." Scooter in 'Muppet's Take Manhattan. This is kinda like the last quote so again I agree with it. This one doesn't make me think of Stevie but it makes me think of Earl because we will be saying goodbye for good on June 9th when we get off the bus from project grad. We've gone through so any ups and downs together t through it all we've been friends. For a long time we were greater than friends. When I think of us never seeing nor talking again I start to cry but I know I can always think of the good times we've had together. Like the fourth f July when his parents couldn't get him and he spent the night at my house and we got to talk about everything an anything and the next morning when I woke up he was there and it was the happiest feeling in the world to wake up go in the next room and see the person who you love there. Sometimes I wish we were still together but I know in the long run that breaking up was the best thing to do even though I still wear the necklace that he gave me. I wear it everyday and I doubt he realizes I do.

goodbye

"Saying goodbye, going away. Seems like goodbye's sucha hard thing to say." - Miss Peggy in Muppets Take Manhattan. This quote makes me sad because it reminds me that my friends and I wont be together anymore. We're going to split up and go off where no one knows us and we have to start all over again. I really don't want to say goodbye to some of my friends like Stevie. We've known each other since kindergarden and we really didn't become best friends until high school. We're so much like each other. We know what eachother is thinking and we can finish each other sentences. I know that we will keep in touch but it wont be the same ever again. We will become friends with someone else and soon the phone calls and emails wont come as often and then maybe they will stop all together and I don't want that all. When people leave town they always say that they will keep in touch but everyone knows that wont happen.

free write- food

Okay so today is Friday and it's a free write and I really have nothing to write about at all. I hope today is chicken patty day because I'm really really craving chicken patties and manayoise and tomatoes. I hope with the chicken patties they serve milk and fruit coctail because fruit coctail rocks my socks hard core. I also like when the school serves us pudding but most of the time it's chocolate pudding and I'm not tooo fond of that. I also like when the school gives us pizza even though lately the pizza has been pretty nasty. The one thing I hate about school food would have to be the uncrustables. They are nasty as hell. Most of the time they're old and hard or the they're frozen and you can't bite into them. Sometimes I wish the state would make the schools serves us decent food for a change. All the good food that we have at school costs money and for the poorer people at sacopee they can't get it and are stuck with the lame nasty food.

free write - ap test

Another free write yay! This free write is going to be about the Ap test in May. I'm going to fail it. I know nothing at all about writing to make it all sound good and tie it all together. I suck at the multiple choice part because i suck at ever multiple choice test i've ever had. I'm pretty much a failure in life. I really want to do well but maybe I should just face the facts. I know you have a period for extra help during period 8 but thats when I have math and I can't get out of that except when there's a sub and theres nothing to do. Basically why did I take Ap english if I knew I would never pass the test. Maybe so it would at least say that I took it on my transcript? I don't know anymore. All I do know is that I wish i could pass this test. i mean i would hate it more if I actually had to pay for the test but I get free lunch so I don't have which is good for me because I don't have any of that money just lying around.

free write -prom

free write Friday whoop. I love free writes. Today I will be talking to you about Prom oh yes prom. The biggest dance in high school and the one where in the older days you would get a hotel room for the night with the special lady that you invited. i got my prom dress the other day and it's blue and long because my legs are ugly and I hate to show them off to anyone even Ben. Anyways I hope prom will be fun because its our senior year and we're taking a limo and then going to denny's afterwards because denny's is the crap lol. the limo is white and is fully loaded and it fits 14 people so all of us and our dates whoop. My jewlery is silver and also my shoes are silver and i'm going to have my hair up and curly hopefully. The theme for prom this year is maskarade or however you spell it and it should be cool. Even though those stupid juniors are trying to take over everything. I wanna slap some of them and be like bitch please this is our prom not yours. But i'm not that mean or I don't want to be in trouble for slapping someone over something dumb. Overall I bet prom will be amazing as normal.

"'Scuse me while I kiss this guy!"

"'Scuse me while I kiss this guy!"- misheard Jimi Hendrix lyrics- okay first of all I've never listened to anything of Jimi Hendrix. I know I should've but I haven't. Anyways this quote makes me seem like someone snobby is saying it to a girl who she doesn't like but that girl thinks the snobby girl's boyfriend is cute. Kinda like mean girls when katie liked Gorgina's boyfriend and tried to get him to like her but gorgina found out and rubbed it in katie's face. Why would Jimi Hendrix be singing about kissing a guy? I think I need the whole song so I could get this quote better. Right now I'm getting a drama story or Jimi Hendrix being gay. One or the other mostly the first one though. I remember in class you said there were other versions of this song like 'scuse me while I kill this guy. which personally I think would be way more interesting to write about and for you to read. I could cme up with so much more dirt and stories to tell you.

light a candle

"Light a candle. Listen to the wind. Draw a picture. Eat some chocolate. Open a book. Look at the moon. Smile at yourself." -Kristen Sheldon- okay this quote makes it seems like someone is on their period. I think that maybe Kristen sheldon is and she's having a bad day and all she wants to do is look at the moon and eat her chocolate. I think that most girls when they're on their period they want to be left alone to think and do things that they never would do like listen to the wind. I know that I like to listen to the wind and look at the moon during that time. It relaxes me and makes me feel better. some girls do things to get things off their minds like how much their cramps hurt or how they hate something. They want to breath without having to do a million things. On the other hand the period is a awful thing because it's a pain and sometimes it gives you cramps and things. But if you don't want your husband to be around you or your boyfriend all you have to say is that your on your period and they just go okay i'm going to be going somewhere because they don't want to deal with any of that.

seeds=grow

"The more seeds you sow, the more plants you grow."- notes from the universe. Well you can take this really dirty which in my mind everything is always dirty. :) this quote in my mind is gross but true. Because the more times you have sex the more likely you are to have babies with that person. If you have sex with multiple people there your chances increase. But why would you want children? sometimes ya they can be cute but just remember that when they grow up they're gonna most likely act just like you and sometimes that's not a good thing at all. Babies are only cute when they're sleeping I think the rest of the time they need so much of your time and I like my time to myself. Babies cry and pee way too much. There should be a shut off valuve or something to control there output of some nasty smelling stuff. When babies becme toddlers and learn how to walk and be even more pains it drives me crazy and I get headache more often. When my brother was a toddler i wanted to shove him into the dryer and turn it on because he wouldn't leave me alone. Now he's a middle schooler and he still wont leave me a lone . I should've put him in the dryer when I had the chance. He's like a sick puppy and he needs soem kind of help.

"What doesn't break, bends."

"What doesn't break, bends."-AniDifrance I don't agree with this quote because there are things out there that dont break nor bend like nalogene bottles. You can do whatever you want to them like throw them down on the tar as hard as you can ands they wont break or at least there not suppose to. They don't bend either at all. It would be pretty hard to bend a bottle don't you think? you can make an illusion in the bottle if there water in it. You can make it look like something's bending. Also in a non nalogene bottle... love is never broken you will always love your first love no matter what happens between the two of you. So you could say that love never breaks but it bends and gets weaker as time goes on but never breaks fully. I know my first love is someone that I still love but it would be totally different if we ever got back together and we would always have us breaking up again in our minds but would probably never say anything. There are a lot of things that don't break but bend I just can't come up with them right now I'm too tired to think that hard.

hunting men

"True hunting's over, no herd to follow. Without game, men prey on each other." okay this quote is kind of distrubing a little because why would men prey on each other even though theres nothing better to do when the hunting season over with. Without something else to take out your aggression on you end up taking it out on someone that you really don't want to take it out on. Hunting is a good stress reliever for the male gender and sometimes the female gender but this is all about the male.In life we try to blame most things on others or get mad at them when usually it's because we're mad at ourselves. Sometimes people take out on others what is really their own faults or their own aggressions that they need to take care of because there is nothing else to take it out on.Basically men have no lives when the hunting season is over with and they have to find soemthing to fill their time until the next years hunting season.

"What kind of flower would you recommend for a young lady going into summer with her boy?"

"What kind of flower would you recommend for a young lady going into summer with her boy?"- Deus Cravero in "A flower in May". Since i'm a young lady I would want a lilly. Lillies are pretty specially the all white ones. People have lillies at their weddings and it's usually their flower that they loved while growing up. But when boys are young like really young and they're playing on the playground they give the girl a dandilion which back then I must admit was cute. Basically it doesn't matter what kind of flower you give the lady because she'll think it's sweet that you even thought of giving her something let a lone a flower. I would want a lilly though because they're my favorite. I hate flowers that are ugly colors so make sure the girl gets a flower that is a pretty color or she probably wont like it, but she wont tell you that she doesn't like it. Now that I think about it a little more why get her a flower at all? They just die after a week or two and then the only thing she has is her memories. Get her something that she can hold on to forever without it going bad.

"I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider."

"I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider." Three Dog Night -Joy to the world- I don't really understand this quote but I'll give it a good shot at it. Maybe this quote has a hidden meaning to it. Maybe high life flyer means that the person is rich and spends a lot of money and has the wonderful life. But he's a rainbow rider and, which could mean he's gay and people dont except him into society. Which again is not right at all but thats life people are dumb sometimes. I have no clue on how to disect this quote at all. Another possible shot at this could be a person who is a free bird sorta like a hippiee and they just live day by day to the fullest potential that they can give. Another shot at this quote could be a guy in an air plane riding in it and hes riding on the rainbows since they're up in the skies. I don't like this shot very much but you never know.

homophobic, racist, or sexist?

Are people more homophobic, racist, or sexist? Well it all depends on what your talking about and where. Are you talking about in the whole world, the united states, Maine or sad 55? Well I'll start with sad 55 because I know it a little better. Sad 55 is one of those hard cases because we're a tight community and we don't get to experience that much. Are we sexist I think yes because the "men" don't let and want the girls to do everything that they can.They're very pig headed.I think girls can do anything boys can do maybe sometimes they can even do it better. racism? Again sad 55 hasn't been there we're an all white community except for a few african american people and other's. i bet some people who say that they aren't will eventually be racist if they ever get out of sad 55 even get out of Maine. Homophobic sad 55 well yes I think for the most part the community is because our community is full of older people who grew up hating same sex things. Personally I'm none of the things because i've seen how mean it is and my aunt is gay and i'm deff not racist or sexist. It's just i've been grown up differently.

Life is tough

"Life is tough. Get over it." 8 year old realtionship expert Alec Greven. I laughed when I read this quote but it's true. People shouldn't dwell on the bad things in life because the worlds fillled with bad things and dwelling never did anyone any good. You got to learn to grow up and get over things because it's always going to be in your face. You should smile instead of frown because smiling is better and it gets other people to smile. And if your sad guess what the world's still gonna go forward with or without you. This 8 year old kid is very insightful for his age. When I was 8 I still cried over things that happened the week before because I was a sissy. Crying never got people anywhere except it gets girls out of speeding tickets but that's a different topic of it's own. Basically life is life and if you don't like it you can always choose to get of it out which I don't reccommend but it's always a possibility.

safe and sorry

"It's no better to be safe than sorry." A-ha I have no clue if I agree with this quote but I kinda think that it means you should take risks and not plan everything out in life. Be sorry sometimes for mistakes because thats life and you have to learn about life somehow. To be safe is to be boring and no one likes someone who is always safe and boring. People like risk takers and risk takers love people who love them. If you were one of those people who never did anything wrong I bet that one day you would want to get out and rebel because you would be dieing to know the feeling of living on the dangerous side. Now I'm not saying go ot and get drunk and then drive but live it up sometimes in you life. But always remember nothing is worth losing your whole life specially losing it because you got drunk then tried to drive home.

Love is like an ocean

"Love is like an ocean, forever in motion, forever changing, never twice the same." -Sean Lennon. I agree with this quote a lot because love is like an ocean. When your in love you never know what's going to happen. Anything can change when your in love. One day your relationship can be wonderful and you can feel like your on top of the world and the next day you guys are fighting and you feel like dirt. The ocean is the same way it's always changing and it's never the same way you saw it before. One day the ocean can be nice and sunny and the next day it's overcast and it's rainy or drizzly and no ones on the beach. And it's never the same because it can be calm or dangerous. Love is the same way because it can be calm and dangerous too. It's never the same and it will never be. Love is deffinately an over rated thing. Love is so sappy that sometimes it makes me sick. I agree that love is always in motion in more than one way. The ocean is obvisouly in motion all the time because the earth is always shifting and moving itself. Sean Lennon was a smart guy even though I don't know who he actually is. Even though the ocean and love is always changing but one day everything will come to a hault and the ocean will be the same and love will become the same and become dull.

Late start is better than snow days

Convince me that late starts are better than snow days. Late starts are better than snow days because on snow days you eventually have to make them up. Late starts you get to sleep in or get that little bit of homework that you forgot to do or didn't have time to do done. Late starts give you time to eat breakfast at home so you don't have to eat the nasty school food. You don't have to be in school for as long with a late start. On a snow day the roads are usually really crappy and you never want to go out anywhere anyways. Your usually stuck home doing nothing or doing laundry or any other duties. It kinda sucks that you have to stay home and eventually have to make it up, you can't go anywhere, your parents make you do different things around the house.Theres nothing good that a snow days give you. A late start on the other hand gives you a couple hours to sleep in, a counted full day so you don't have to make it up, you can go somewhere after school, theres still after school sports. There's many good things about late starts. I personally like the late starts better. I like going to school most days because I like being away from home. It gives me something productive to do during the day. Also I get to see my friends specially my best friend stevie. If you like snow days your a crazy person. If you like late start days your a cool person and I like you. You can be my friend :)

Misunderstood

"I guess I should warn you, if I turn out to be particulary clear, You've probably misunderstood what I said." Alan Greenspan. I guess I would agree with this quote because most of the times when someone thinks they heard the right thing that they're probably wrong and heard the complete opposite of what was actually said. People should never assume that someone said something if they didn't actually hear them say it or they only heard bits and pieces of it. People aren't programmed to make sense at all so if someone says somethign that is understandable it's most likely wrong. Don't trust what people say look up the information yourselve and trust only you and your brain because those are things that matter the most. What other people say is worth nothing to you because you are your own person and have your own thoughts.

Family guy

"I'd rather be alone than with someone who doesn't get me" Brian Griffin(Family Guy). I actually get this quote and I agree with it too. Why would anyone want to be with someone who doesn't understand them. If you were with someone who didn't get you then sooner than later there would be a bunch of problems of some sort. Personally I'd would rather be alone than be with someone who didn't get me because I know I would fight with them. I would feel like I was alone because I couldn't share my feelings with that person. Even if I was with this person I would basically be alone because I would have no one to share my ideas and views with. If you are with person who doesn't understand you or get you in any way then why are you with that person in the first place. Do you think that magically one day a light will switch on in their head and they will like everything about you and understand you perfectly? I don't think so because that's all fairy tale. If I was with someone who didn't get me I would drive myself crazy because I know I would fight with them to try to make them understand me. If I was alone I wouldn't have that problem at all because I wouldn't need any one to understand me as long as I understood myself. People forget that they don't always need someone in their life that gets them, sometimes it's better not to have that person. Sometimes they can be a hassle.

failure

"Failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part." Zachary Flack(b00). So I like Zach he's a pretty cool guy. At first he scared me because of his height but when he first spoke I he sounded like a teddy bear. I don't get that he sounds nice but works with criminals. If I was him I'd want to be somewhere else working for a living. Anyways back to the quote I agree with it. He's saying that just because you screwed up doesn't mean It's my fault and I have to rush to fix your stupidity. To me this is something that I would say to the president when they're being dumb and say something they aren't suppose to or I would say it to a celebrity because we all know they say the dumbest things ever and expect their publists or manager to clean up their mess. I would say no way you got yourselve into this one sorry. I hate people who make other people do their dirty work for them it's just so wrong. People should be more responsible for their actions and their actions alone. They should learn to plan ahead if they think they're going to screw everything up for them and for other people.

alone with someone else

" I wish I could share the joy of being alone with someone else." Post Secret. I totally agree with this quote. Sometimes I find myself sometimes thinking that I wish I could be alone with someone else other than the person I'm with. Like in my dreams I dream about being alone with either dustin or I use to dream about being alone with earl. Everytime I'm with either one I get all filled with butterflies. I don't know why I do with Dustin because he's just my friend but one day he'll say I love you and I hopes its before I graduate. Anyways back to the quote :) Sometimes people find themselves making the wrong choice of who they want to be with and they find themselves wishing to be with the person that they were with before or be with someone the know they like. I know I went through that a lot when I was younger, I couldn't make up my mind of who I wanted to be with. I kept going back and forth between three guys because they were all different until I found the one I wanted to be with in 9th grade. Sadly that ended though in the summer and i'm with the same person I have been since that summer.

evil

"evil to some is always good to others" Jane Austin. I agreee with this quote. I think is means that their is always someone out there in the world for you no matter who you are or what you do. If you're an evil person or you like to be "evil" you might be "nice" to someone different. They might like you for who you are. It means that you might be a little naughty or a little out there but no matter what someone in the world is exactly like you and is alone too and wishing they could find someone like themselves. Everyone deserves someone even the people that mean to other people. Some people like getting picked on and beat and other stuff. Some people are just that weird. Some people have different perspectives about what's evil and what's good. I mean ya most people say that good is an angel that wears white and does all these good things to help people and evil is the complete opposite. Well to some people they think that the do gooder is the evil one because they want someone a little naughty and to them they think they're the good ones.

ode to november

November is a month that my cousin was born
His name was Maxwell Callan and He was 15 when he died.
He died in September from a heart attack.
He was born November 10th and I miss him so much.
November is a month that the snow usually begins to fall.
It's a month where soccer ends and basketball begins.
The leaves fall to the ground and the animals start to hibernate.
November is a month to remember because it always has suprises.

Christmas is coming soon in a couple of days and I can't wait. I think christmas is my favorite time of the year. I hate snow sometimes though. It's not that I hate snow but I hate when it's falling and the roads are crap. Plus the snowplows blow because they plow all the snow back into the driveway and I can never get out. I like getting presents specially if they're one's that I actually wanted. This year I asked for a new ipod nano because i'm sick of listening to a cd player on away games and things. I also asked for a bunch of gift cards because I need them for games and stuff. I always get something lime green for christmas because lime green is my favorite color and everyone knows it. I don't usually get a lot of presents because my birthday is like the week after so they try to save some money to buy b-day presents. The only thing about christmas this year is that we're not having a big family party like we usually do. I'm going to miss it. But i'm not going to miss me having to sit through all the little kids opening all their presents and me only getting to open two or three. O well I hope its fun this year.
