Just a very important note to my friends/adoring fans/random people who read my LJ; I'm gonna be off for a while. Quite a while, in fact. The company who funds mom's remote internet connection isn't gonna do it for free anymore starting Monday; so we have to get another ISP, which may take a while considering our current financial situation. See, ( Read more... )

Went to an interview with the Magnet school people today. It was the most nerve-wracking 45 minutes of my life. Every few minutes I mentally kicked myself for saying something stupid, not saying something when I should have said something, saying the right thing at the wrong time, etc. I was holding my report card during the interview, but I tore ( Read more... )

Well, it’s safe to say the past week and or so has been a bit COMPLETELY INSANE. When we weren’t getting lost on our way to Meridian we were driving there, when we weren’t driving there we were arguing with family, when we weren’t arguing with family I was getting grounded for not watching my baby cousin Lakendra. I don’t see why her own mom couldn ( Read more... )

Well, my school's finished up for the Thanksgiving break, and I've been sent packing. I have 3 weeks to find another school to take me in at short notice, so fiddle-de-dee, yet again, my education is in jepardy. In other news, the performance of Taming of the Shrew was today, and everything went quite well. A few line flubs now and then for ( Read more... )

My report card came in the mail today. All A's except for a C in Math. Well, the term's drawing to a close, and I'm leaving this school at the end of Thanksgiving break. Mom can't afford to pay the fees without us moving to cheaper house, so, eh, bye-bye private education! Can't say I'll be all that sorry to be going, because, you see, the ratio of ( Read more... )

Greetings and felicitations, m'lords and ladies. I trust I find thee well this eve. Earlier this very noon, practised I with my jolly friends for the Bard's fabule, The Taming of the Shrew, in which, I do so take the role of good sir Biondello, as his former player has taken ill and another girl wishes for the role of the Widow. As on this day, ( Read more... )

Spent most of my free time today trying to think of and then construct a Halloween costume, and after a few failed attempts at making a ghost, a witch, a pirate and a bat, I’ve made an evil kitty-vampire thing. ^-^ I like the idea of an evil kitty-vampie, whether or its all that scary. I never really went trick-or-treating much before, because ( Read more... )

My GOD. In Scotland they have deep-fried candy on a stick with chocolate sauce...Baby, I am THERE!! *Teleports to Glasgow*

I almost got mugged today. Keyword “almost.” It was a pathetic attempt at a mugging. I find it increasingly hard to be threatened by a guy who is shorter than me, couldn’t weigh more than 70 lbs, has me “cornered” beside a very public statue of Simon Bolivar, and whose only weapon is a plank of wood. Yes, a fucking plank of wood, and when you ( Read more... )
