This weekend was fun.
Saturday I went to Dayton,Ohio with my mom because she had some work stuff to do, and I skateboarded around town. So boring. There was nothing there but colleges and car dealerships. Then on our way to the mall I saw a sign for Kettering 1 mile away. On the car ride to Ohio I was telling her about how I wanted to go to this skate plaza that was in Kettering that was famous blah blah blah. So when I saw that sign I was like !

So we asked a few gas stations, and one lady was crazy with no teeth and was all like "It could be behind this one school and it's at X intersection". But we finally found it! It was 50 degrees compared to 4 degrees in MI. So I skated for about two hours. IT was amazing.

I went there again today on our way home but I was the only one there because they're really religious down there so I guess people were at church. Poop.

I used shampoo for the first time in about 3 months yesterday. My hair looked/felt so good. I don't know the date and I don't know when break is but I need it  so bad. The winter is so depressing cause everyone sucks and is a bitch in winter.

I don't get what the problem is clarifying what people said! Claudia was telling us a story about her dad being like "its okay if you're a lesbian". Then in english class Nick was like "why does your dad think you're a lesbian?" and I was like "No, that's Claudia's dad".  And Claudia told me someone told her that I was dancing around saying Claudia's a lesbian! It's not that big of a deal. But I didn't even do that.

Secondly where do you get off talking to Kelli right when I'm next to her saying "Kelli your brother said he hates all your friends and likes me the best and I was like Thanks Steve and he was like well they're not much to compare to". She was just trying to spite me or something and everyone's full of poop. I hate everyone right now. From now on I'm just going to tell everyone to fuck off. I hope the new trimester starts soon.

I had a dream that I was coming out of this darkly lit parking lot and I was walking to my car and my hair was purple and I had cuts on my face and I had on flare jeans (impossible) and a guy with long hair was looking at me through car windows and I ran to my car.

He shot me in the hands and I was supposed to go to a party and I was so upset so I went to this toyshop and they were like "stuffed animals" and I told them I was shot and then I showed them my hands and they were little scabs and it didn't look cool and he didn't beleive me but my hands didn't hurt anymore.

When I saw this writers block thing I instantly remembered my dream. I like when that happens. I'm off to watch ART SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL. For the 335299th time now. I'm in Ohio. I'm the happiest I've been all week . I'll write more tomorrow.

 

People are sosososososo lame. Why can't people grow up. Kelli's mad at me for talking about her aunts to RJ? When I didn't even say anything bad. Kill me now. Jenns mad at me for not sympathyzing with her when she lost money on dopewars. Whatever.

I just ordered a pair of shoes. Etnies arto mid. Whatever. Everything is just so stupid and I'm really pissed of at Alex cause he was like "Why'd you look at me funny today?" and I was like "Because you were holding a broken iPod and being weird" and he was like "well whats up then" and I was like "I don't know what your problem is" then he said " twenty-nine two for fifty" and that was the end...

All I want to do right now is go skate at Hart Plaza or Huntington but that's not going to happen cause of this depressing weather. Everything is poop!

Today was a lot of fun. I went to Michigan-Rage with Anna,Stevie,Scotty,Andrew then Preston and Kevin showed up.

Anna and I walked around for an hour with nothing to do, then Stevie called and said he was here.So we went to his car and it was so weird, he's 19 or something, and Andrews 18?

Stevie was cool as always, and Andrew was really nicer than I thought he'd be..The movie was good except the sound quality/filming sucked. It was fine though. Anna's dad couldn't find the place so the guys waited with us for about 45 minutes just talking and making fun of people. I won a 411VM DVD for answering a Plus trivia question right. I'm really tired and today was fun.

Here's Stevie at his finest.

Today, was a snowday. And I wasn't excited because I thought my mom would have to go to work and I wouldn't have a ride anywhere and I'd just sit at home. But It was an actual good one.

I went to Kelli's house at 1 and when we pulled up Alex was out front spinning glow sticks on a string (ohmygod) and Steve was shoveling. I went inside and Kelli was eating pancakes.

We decided to go outside and play in the snow and then we marched to Claudias house and showed up at her house, rang the doorbell and hid snowballs behind our backs and threw them at her when she answered then ran away. It was the greatest time ever.

Tomorrow I'm hanging out with Anna, then Sunday we're going to MI rage together. I'm happy we're not in a fight anymore.I missed her because she was the only person who I could really/secretly tell everything and anything too and she wouldn't think I was that stupid..

Jules said she'd come visit me over break(!!) It made my night. And I think my computer has a corrupted file or something because it's acting funny and is going slow and I'm really pissed off still that plus didn't have those neckface shoes in my size and now I don't know what shoes to get and it's over whelming.

I had a dream that I wrote in my livejournal and I was like "oh my god everyone I have a boy friend and he's 21 years old and I just met him and he's soo cute" and it was the longest entry ever and everyone was all like "Congratulations!".

THEN I had another dream where I was like some struggling artist and Sheryl Crow was my mom and I went to her house because she was moving and she lived in the slums of California and she had like 50 ciggarettes lit at the same time and I went around the room in one huge circle with them, and she was really depressed and had a lot of those half moon/sun mirrors and ceramic pieces packed up in boxes. I love dreams that you can't explain. My dreams have been getting SO weird lately.

P.S. I am a vegetarian for a week as of Today just to try it out and see if its right for me.
Ya dig?! 

kelli36098: i hate eating

I've been listening to The Yeah Yeah Yeahs non-stop lately.  I have 14 of their songs, I listened to every single one all the way through twice on repeat during Art. My classes are too long.

Okay I feel like a big bitch for saying that stuff about Alex. There were times when I liked him, especially in the summer when I first met him and Tina,Him and I all hung out a lot. I guess maybe I don't like him now is because we go to school together, and when it was just us he was some cute boy who I really didn't know that much about. People change though.

I just looked online and I got a B+ on my district math test! And I thought I failed it.

KISSIEEx: this summer im going to do drugs all the time
MITTEN MUCH: ha like last summer
KISSIEEx: seriously...

She said she wanted to drop out of school and become an addict. What kind of friends do I have!?

I totally forgot something funny from today.
CLaudia and I were talking about previous boyfriends, and she brought one up I totally forgot because I could only remember Adam. She was all like "Remember when you and Tyler Walzack we're dating?!" and I was all like WHO IS THAT?! And for literally 10 minutes she had to describe to me who he was and what he looked like and what classes I had with him until I went "THE GUY WITH THE PRETTY EYES AND LONG SILKY HAIR!". How could I forget him? That was last year!

Even though I don't surfboard, waxless surfboards sound like just as an idea that 'sliptape' for skateboards were. Not.

Today was fine. I came home and watched Intervention, and will be watching more tonight.

This kid messaged me on facebook asking to buy my camera and everything for $50 but I don't think he realizes everything that comes with it...and I was rethinking it and realized that I obviously will never find a fisheye for this camera, and maybe I should keep my old one for skating and things like that.

We had a lockdown at school today (lol). Apparently "two adult males" were roaming the schools parking lot and "law enforcement" had to be called. We all thought it was fake.

When I grow up I'm going to become a coke lord with Buddy and Otis at my side. That or a detroit animal police officer (like the tv show). The latter is probably more practical, however.

I really need a Spin Doctors CD...I heard them on Sarah Silverman and they=good. I have been listening to a lot of Cursive lately though.

Kill me now.

Jenn came to my house after school today. We went to Tim Hortons and watched "John Tucker Must Die"...which is actually a good movie lolz . I show no support for my school whatsoever. I've gone to 1 basketball game, and like 2 football games. Today was supposed to be a 'brown out' at Walled Lake High School or something. Maybe West Bloomfield? How are you supposed to brown out someone else's gym..

Whatever the team sucks anyways. 

Today, I overheard this annoying poop girl talking about Cystic Fibrosis in biology. She was all like "OMG GUYZ I KNOW SOOO MUCH ABOUT CYSTIC FIBROSIS AND LOLZ  MY COUSIN HAS IT AND HE'S ON A HIGH FAT DIET LIKE ITS SO SAD" ...
Oops, so thats why when I was making jokes about diseases she was all like " Thats soo rude, people with diseases got it rough, ya know?" Just so you can put a face to the quote for fun...she's a twin and I  don't know which one she is so sorry.

   They are like demons or something from Catholic School...

My ankle hurts so bad. I get random spurts of RLS for like weeks at a time...
I'm so pissed. I haven't had my fucking NeckFace shirt for like over 2 weeks. It's my favorite shirt and I want my shit back but people are too lazy to go to their locker or put shit in the washing machine.

I wish the new season of weeds would start. I hate the writers strike. I WANT THE NEW SEASON OF THE FUCKING SARAH SILVERMAN PROGRAM TO START.
I miss her so much! She is my goddess/hero/rolemodel... Everyone says she's racist,immature,stupid and mean. But all that stuff is funny! I like crude humor and stuff. NO one can take jokes..SARAH SILVERMAN IS FUNNY. If you don't think a  joke about an angel having aids is funny...well okay maybe its not that funny for some people with full blown aids but whatever.

I can't decide which pair to get. I like both of them a lot. I feel bad not getting them from plus even though I have 40 dollars still to it but I know plus doesn't have these and they'd be probably $65.

There was this girl in the art room and I saw her and her eyes were real buggy like. And I was all like "so cool". I thought she was like
on heroin or something and was some frazzled tweaking artist...but I learned she was the French exchange student but everytime I see her she smiles really nice at me ... Why is everyone from France so cute?

I got an A on my civics test. AND to make my teacher even more proud, I'm using a picture of Jack White for president. I think it's his mugshot.YES!

YES!
OK This is the last entry I'll make about DopeWars. I promise. I bought 200 ''bags'' of weed for 10 dollars each. JUST SOLD THEM FOR 780 EACH! I am so good.

My drawing of Cairo Foster is turning out pretty good. I just can't get the smoke right. I'll put it on here once I'm finished and I have it matted.  Oops. And I've had Lilly Allen on replay for the past 5 days for ever. She's actually REALLY good.

I downloaded stuff from The Faint & Cursive since I didn't have too much stuff from them. PRETTY GOOD.

For a better chance of winning, buy guns at the store...




FUCK YOU DOPE WARS!!

YES !
I just sold 10 bags of weed on "Dope Wars". I bought it for 43$ a piece and sold it for 132$ a piece $$$$$$$ CHA CHANG

So, guess who got there late fees waived at the library today? This one library said I looked like Harry Potter?? And then she said she loved my hair...and I was like "thanks, Yours is so cute too! I love your jacket!" Cause I knew I had 25$ worth of fees that I DIDN'T GET...I NEVER CHECKED OUT "OFF TO GRANDMAS!" And she was like...here's your cd...and your fines. I was like "I have fines??". Pretending not to know. And she said "Not anymore...here you go!" And she showed me the bill and it was $23.50. I was so happy.

The cute boy was there today. Yesterday he was wearing a Lollapalooza T-Shirt with chords and slip ons...Today he had on a red flannel (!!!) and skinny jeans. He is so sexy. He stocks books there. He has long brown/blonde hair with a beard. I could guess he was 19/20. All I do is watch him stock books and be attractive. I got "Michigan, The Great Lakes State" By Sufjan Stevens there today. And I got a Ryan Adams cd too. I like Sufjan  a little better, though.

I made puppy chow tonight. It's really tasty. So This weekend we're going to Omaha. And Lindsay(Iggy's girlfriend), said she'd cut and color my hair. I'm doing it orange. Well the front part that already is died (see pictures on facebook!). I've had it blonde/blue since summer/fall. Now im getting a trim and the front part orange. I'm pretty excited.

My prints of Otis turned out so good. I framed one today in class to bring to Iggy.

DragonForce is sooo good. I really love them alot. Especially when I'm in Fund D, and drawing Jamie Thomas doing a front-side feeble on some pipe.

I just wrote a long list about what I dislike about my school and erased it because I sounded like a bitch. I'm aware that I go to an excellent High School, blah blah blah...but it was mostly just complaining about the people there. =]
I realized I have something bad to say about everyone and everything. I always am looking at the negatives on people- but everything else is just positive. I'm slowly becoming aware of it that I really don't have a 'close group of friends' that I do everything with. I don't know if I like it or not. I mean I can't really think of who one of my really good friends is.

It's like last year it was Sam,Jenn,Claudia and Kelli. But this year , I've basically fallen out with a lot of them and we're not nearly as close as we used to be. It sucks not having other friends that I can hang out with. It's always like I just do what I do. Which is good, you know? But it's like I don't feel like really ever hanging out with anyone except a few people who I'm not even good friends with. So it's just weird. Sorry for rambling.

I just made a Mix CD of my favorite songs right now for my brothers girlfriend (<333). I'm going out to Omaha with my Mom this weekend! To see Iggy. He's moving from his house to an apartment because everyone moved out (??).

Oh well. Here's a list of my favorite music for the past month!

• Of Montreal
• Arcade Fire
• The Moldy peaches
• Tilly and the Wall
• The Fiery Furnaces
• Bright Eyes (just forever)
• Islands
• Mates of State
• Office
• The 88
• The Blow
• Nada Surf
• Grand Buffet
• The Velvet Teen
• Elliot Smith
• The Go! Team!
• Bayside
• Straylight Run
• The Velvet Underground
• A Skylit Drive

And that's probably it.
One last thing - My mom is so cute. She signed me and her up for a HIP HOP class LOLZ! At Mercy High School. OhMyGod. Tomorrow is the first class. Loves it puntas!

I want a girl who's too sad to give a fuck.Where's the kid with the chemicals?I thought he said to meet him here but I'm not sure.I've got the money if you've got the time.You said it feels good.I said, "I'll give it a try."

I'm pretty sure 'Lover I don't have to love' is my favorite song by Bright Eyes.
Tomorrow is a late start!
Anna invited me to go to some monument monument or some band like that's concert on the 25th?! AHHHHH GUESSSSS. Seeing as I've never heard of this band it'll be fun.

 I got an iPod today! Jordan sold me his, but for some reason Chad made me give him the money (?????) I have no clue why though..
Its a 30 g black video...which is just like the kind I lost...haha.

Today was so weird. In Biology, Brad kept rubbing my leg at the begining of class. Then the rest of the time he was calling me a lesbian and saying I was a 'Lesbian Hobo' and I was going to grow up to be a 'Lesbian Grandma'. Then he said He saw a video of Kelli and I showering together which was TOO funny... then he told me to prove I wasn't a lesbian which was just weird...

I dunno, guys are creepy when they get like that. "Bag of Suck" is downloading right now, I'm soo happy because it's the best video ever. Louie Barlettas part is insane. I go around with the mentality that everyone knows everything about skateboarding...but they don't. I need to stop that because it's annoying to people when I go on and on about it-It seems like everyone does/should know about it because of MTV/Video Games blah blah blah...

But there's so much to know about it. Skateboarding itself is an art form. Self expression. Skateboarding is a sport that accepts anyone- Whether you have fake limbs, diseases, gay, broken bones- you can still do it. It's such an amazing sport. There's so much to learn as you go on with it. Anything and everything, screen printing t-shirts, designing a deck, designing a vulcanized shoe. It blows my mind.
