   I feel blaaaaaaah....
Well, how are peoples doin' today? I haven't been
able to get on for soooo long. I can't remember
much of what's happened lately. Let me think...

Well, Mom and I got in a wreck one day. It was a three car pileup and we were in the middle. Furtunately, the damage wasn't too bad. The day after, I tried to donate blood at the school blood drive but I was deffered because my hematocrite level was down by one percent. So it turns out I'm anemic by one percent... And French students have come recently. The only one I've really talked to is Charlotte b/c she's staying at Jenny's house.

I've had a lot of arguements with my parents lately. They seem to have increased since Krissy has moved out. They say I've gotten grumpier but I think it's the other way around. I guess they need someone knew to yell at. It makes me very depressed that they don't trust me b/c they think I'm like Krissy. And I've never even done anything that should warrant them to treat me like her.

But, you don't want to hear about that... Well, I'm planning on taking beginner's piano and photography next year. I'm really excited. I've always loved photography even though I probably haven't taken more than a dozen or so in my life!
And piano... Ever since I was little, Missy and I liked to mess around on Mom's keyboard. Missy probably more so than me, but I always like to tap out a new tune.

Well, I don't want to make this too long or Dumiel might not read it. :P He hasn't commented in ages. I think he's forgotten his MyO friend... :p

   So mixed up
Well, things haven’t been going so great lately. Thursday, Kristina came to pick up some of her stuff… She was crying. Not a lot but some. I wish I had gotten to talk to her some more than I did. Missy didn’t think we were really allowed to talk to her, but how can anyone expect you to ignore your sister? Especially when she’s crying? I’m not gonna get to see her as often anymore. And to top it off, I think I pissed off a friend. He said forget about it but he doesn’t talk to me like he used to. I’m going on like nothing happened, but I don’t know what to do. I’m just trying to forget about it. I still see him as a friend but I’m not sure about him. I just want things to go back to the way they were. How am I gonna fix this?
Plus my parents are jumping down my throat every chance they get. I don’t even have to do anything and they yell at me. It took me a long time to do a report and I had both of them jumping on me for being too slow. What’s up with THAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Sometimes it makes me wanna scream ‘cause I feel like noone in the house cares and everyone has something against me. What did I do?!?!?! It gets to the point that I dread going home in the afternoons ‘cause I’m afraid of getting jumped by my parents. I find that pathetic. Does anyone else ever feel the same way? They like screaming at me that I'm like Krissy just to give me a guilt trip. Little do they know, it makes me want to call her. They'd probably flip if they knew.
To top it off, I have a crick in my neck. It hurts really bad too. It looks like I've just been having a really bad week.
Bye

   This sucks!!!
It’s really weird. Last year, a rumor went around that my friend Hannah and I are lesbians. Where did they get that idea?! I am 100% STRAIGHT!!!!! And so is Hannah! Where the heck they got the idea is beyond me. They didn’t even know me last year! Not even the people from my old school ‘cause they hadn’t seen me in four years! Yet they make the assumption that because I have friends, I’m a lesbian. WHAT’S UP WITH THAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! For everyone’s information, I happen to like guys so screw whoever made that one up!

   Problems and Antioch
I have a lot to say, so this might take a while.
You know all that stuff I told you about the running argument between my sister and my mom? It all came to a head Thursday night. It started with my sister saying she was going to Colorado with her boyfriend. They had both previously promised that they would never go on overnight trips with eachother until they were married, so of course my mom said no way. Well, Krissy decided she was going anyways, so my mom said that if she didn't come home that night,she was permenantly kicked out of the house. That meant no more support, no more car or medical insurance (she had cancer a couple of years back), no more car, no nothing. And she can't move back in or come to the house when mom or dad aren't there. That night, she didn't come home. She thought my parents were bluffing. She was wrong. (We're sorting through her stuff as we speak.) My mom was crying on my shoulder that night. The next day, I went to school, and I cried there a little during AP World History. (Sorry if I made you uncomfortable, Dumiel.)But I felt a little better after I cried. I don't really like to cry around other people.
Anyways, that night I had to go to a retreat called Antioch. Jeez... What can I say about Antioch? It was THE most AMAZING retreat I have ever been on. There aren't any words that could justly describe the events there. When we first got there, everyone was stand-offish and noone wanted to talk to a bunch of people they didn't know. Everyone was sort of like "Why did we even come here?" Then,we played a couple of ice-beaker games like 'Will You Be My Neighbor' and the Autograph Search. We even did that thing where everyone sits in a chair in a square and layed on eachothers' laps and we had to hold eachother up when they took the chairs out from underneath us. We were doing this with total strangers. Then we had the talks. Those were amazing. Don't go expecting that you won't cry, 'cause believe me, you will. Even I did. I didn't really think I had anything to cry about. I never cried. But it was Drew Cozey's talk (He's cozy. Inside joke ^_^) that did it for me. Hannah was there for me all the way. My talk group was amazing. I'm kind of sad that Tyler's a senior because he was the coolest and this was his last year. But Erich was in my talk group, and LeighAnn, and Heather and Torria. I never knew Erich was such a talkative person or had those kinds of problems, or LeighAnn for that matter. And then there was the sleep group at the Red family's home. Lauren and Cathryn and Mallory were in my group. It's amazing what you can talk about over pizza and brownies... (Another inside joke ^_^)I only got about three or four hours of sleep each night because we stayed up so late talking. And I got the monster of warm fuzzies from Ronnie (Simmons), which he got from Mrs. Sharpe. I'm gonna try to put mine on my bookbag if I can. And we're all gonna wear our nametags to school too. We got cool T-shirts designed and drawn by Alana Dy and a scapular and metals blessed by Pope Benedict and a CD, and tons of stuff. But most of all, we now have a new family. They feel like more of my family than my real family. It's amazing that you can make new friends in less than 24 hours just by sharing some of your deepest secrets with total strangers that you know won't laugh or tell someone else about them and then having them share some back. Even people I thought I knew were total strangers to me. People I thought I didn't like, I made friends with. I truly have a new family. I really wished I didn't have to go. When I saw mom and dad I bawled my eyes out because I know I haven't always treated them right, and they have sacrificed so much for me, including their health. I really felt terrible. At least I will see some of them at school. And the Sauls family. I hadn't seen them since I was a baby, and then I made friends with Rebecca, who is actually Kristina's friend. I can't tell too much about it 'cause it will ruin the experience for future candidates, but if you are offered to go, take it. It is a faith-changing experience. Don't stay home, saying "It's not for me". It will change your life and outlook and will make permanent friends. Dumiel, you have to go next year. I'm gonna try to be on team. You're really gonna get it from Erich tomorrow too. You can only be a candidate once, so it's either that or the God Squad which is more for people who have already graduated from highschool and can't be on team anymore. If anyone from Antioch reads this I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
See 'ya!!!!!

   Bwahahahahahaha!!!
'Ello peoples!
So how is everybody? Doin' well I hope! I have to go to my grandparents' house tomorrow for my mom's birthday. And before that I have CCD. And after the party I have to hurry back early and sing in the choir for mass. And I have some homework left. (Just a little bit.) But other than that, I'm doin' great! School's back in session for me. The teachers don't skip a beat when it comes to homework. I can put up with it as long as I get to see my friends. Speaking of friends, I heard Dumiel play the piano for the first time yesterday. He's really dedicated to his music I think. Dumiel, if you're reading this, I think you should try for violin like you wanted to. I don't think they would mind so much.
I play a left-handed Fender. (For those of you who don't know, a Fender is a brand of guitar.) I got it a little over a year ago. I can play a few songs on it, but my mom never got around to getting me lessons. I also played flute for a while. I have to go. See 'ya!

   Post- Christmas Fever
No, I'm not sick. I'm talking about shopping! Yesterday, my family went to visit my Grandma and Grandpa for our annual Christmas get-together. (Gee. I wonder why it was on Christmas?) Afterwards, I went home with my Aunt. (I'm actually typing from her computer right now...) We decided to go shopping today. It's been a looooong day. *rubs feet* My Aunt really knows how to shop. My feet are killing me. Well, I made off with almost $500 cash this year. BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That means I've bought preasents for people now. (Yes, Dumiel, I even got you a little something. I hope you like it. I couldn't leave you out. You are my new anime buddy after all...) I love giving people presents! I gots to go. See 'ya!

Merry Christmas!!!!
Since I can only get on the computer when my parents aren't home, I'm writing this early. My Mom isn't working tomorrow or Christmas. Usually she's stuck with the Christmas shift in the microbiology lab at the Med Center. Half the time she's the only one there anyways, so she can't get much done. The whole department likes dumping its work on her. ):< If I ever go into Micro, I'm not sure I wanna work at the Med Center. Well, at least she has Christmas off. My family is having Christmas dinner tonight. We're not celebrating Christmas this year because of Kristina. Mom has been really mad at Krissy for, hmmmm let's see..... quite a few years now. Kris really drove Momma off the deep end this time 'cause she doesn't want to get her anything for Christmas. It's a very long story and it would take waaaayyyy too much space to tell anyone about it, so we'll leave it at that. Missy and me aren't complaining though. We're getting our presents early. Mom gives them to us one a day. The other day, Melissa got The Darkest Faerie for the Playstation and she hasn't stopped playing it since. I think she's over halfway through the game. Yesterday, she got The Cronicles of Narnia soundtrack. I got the Nutcracker CD. Yaaaaaayy!! Momma knows that's my favorite. I could watch it over and over! Hey!Missy is baking molasses cookies!!! *sniff sniff* They smell wonderful! I'm tempted to go steal one. I'll talk again as soon as I can. Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, and happy birthday, Dumiel. I'm off to drink tea, eat molasses cookies, play Sudoku, and listen to my Nutcracker CD!!!Bye!!!!!

   SCAAAARRRRYYYYYY!!!!!
A couple of days ago, I heard of something really scary. It's called BONZAI KITTENS. It's the 'latest rage' in animal cruelty. What's done is that a kitten is given muscle relaxant and then put into a bottle. Yeah, a BOTTLE. It has a feeding tube inserted into its mouth and it lives in the bottle its ENTIRE LIFE. It DIES in the bottle. The only way it can grow is when it's given something that's supposed to soften its bones, and then it begins to take on the actual shape of the container. Hearing about stuff like this really pisses me off. I can't believe people would do such a thing to a poor, defenseless kitten. What was worse was the pictures I saw when I looked it up on Google. I thought it was a joke when I heard about it. I don't even want to write anymore about this. I'll talk some more later.

   I went to the Winter Formal last night!
As the subject says, I went to the winter formal last night! I had a lot of fun, my friends and I danced a lot. A-bop couldn't come and Jenny was sick. ): Still, there's always the party!

I need to buy people some Christmas presents but I don't have any money right now...

I bought a new manga a little while back called Honey Mustard. It's kind of cute. If your a girl and you love shojos, you might want to read this one. It's not the best I've read, but if you're looking for something different.

I shall give a list of all my favorite shojos:
Mars
Model
Doubt!!!
Absolute Boyfriend (This one isn't out yet, but I read about it in a magazine. It's like a girl's version of Chobits.)
Happy Hustle High
Wish
Hana-Kimi
Your and My Secret (This is new and not well known.)
Hot Gimmick
Fruit's Basket (aka Fruba)
Queen's Knight
Angelic Layer (Sort of)
Forbidden Dance
Meru Puri (Machen Prince)
From Far Away (Guys might like this one. It has a little bit of fighting action in it.)
Under the Glass Moon

Just check them out.

Then there are the others that aren't shojo. Some of them are hard to follow along with, but you can take em or leave em:

Planet Ladder
Wolf's Rain
Blame!
Bizenghast
Juvenile Orion (Aquarian Age)
Psychic Academy (This is more for pervy guys.)
Chobits (Also for pervy guys.)
Azu Manga Daioh (I do not recomend this. This is very boring. I picked it up and found out the hard way.)

And that's all I can think of right now. I'll post more if I can think of any. I guess this is all for today. See ya later!
