ookay
today was interesting.
i woke up at 8:30 and a short while after began to have trouble breathing, which seems to happen randomly, and i don't have asthma.. i'm pretty sure. this lasted for about forty minutes and when i did recover from it, i felt like it would come back at any minute, and it nearly did after i came home. i'm just a disaster, aren't i?-_-'
at 12 i went to school and took my science final exam which was pretty easy all in all, it was mostly multiple choice. then knox and i made faces at each other till i was permitted to leave (about fifty minutes after i actually finished the exam) and we couldn't talk or the teacher'd give us a zero. so yeah...
we're incredibly good at our own brand of sign language-_-'
anyway to sum it up my day wasn't all that bad, just very uncomfortable owing to the morning incident and the fact that it was so humid in that classroom i thought any minute everyone would fall out of their seats dead.. or maybe just drown.

Anyone feel like a challenge?
Well i was random and i felt like posting.. something
and for some reason i remembered this poem.
if you want to, leave a comment telling me what you think it means... let's see if you'd survive my english class lol
well somebody surprise me, i really don't expect anyone to answer this-_-'

My Last Duchess
Robert Browning

That's my last duchess painted on the wall,
Looking as if she were alive. I call
That piece a wonder, now: Frà Pandolf's hands
Worked busily a day, and there she stands.
Will't please you sit and look at her? I said
"Frà Pandolf" by design, for never read
Strangers like you that pictured countenance,
The depth and passion of its earnest glance,
But to myself they turned (since none puts by
The curtain I have drawn for you, but I)
And seemed as they would ask me, if they durst,
How such a glance came there; so, not the first
Are you to turn and ask thus. Sir, 'twas not
Her husband's presence only, called that spot
Of joy into the Duchess' cheek: perhaps
Frà Pandolf chanced to say "Her mantle laps
"Over my lady's wrist too much," or "Paint
"Must never hope to reproduce the faint
"Half-flush that dies along her throat": such stuff
Was courtesy, she thought, and cause enough
For calling up that spot of joy. She had
A heart how shall I say? too soon made glad,
Too easily impressed; she liked whate'er
She looked on, and her looks went everywhere.
Sir, 'twas all one! My favor at her breast,
The dropping of the daylight in the West,
The bough of cherries some officious fool
Broke in the orchard for her, the white mule
She rode with round the terrace all and each
Would draw from her alike the approving speech,
Or blush, at least. She thanked men good! but thanked
Somehow I know not how as if she ranked
My gift of a nine-hundred-years-old name
With anybody's gift. Who'd stoop to blame
This sort of trifling? Even had you skill
In speech which I have not to make your will
Quite clear to such an one, and say, "Just this
"Or that in you disgusts me; here you miss,
"Or there exceed the mark" and if she let
Herself be lessoned so, nor plainly set
Her wits to yours, forsooth, and make excuse,
E'en then would be some stooping; and I choose
Never to stoop. Oh sir, she smiled, no doubt,
Whene'er I passed her; but who passed without
Much the same smile? This grew; I gave commands;
Then all smiles stopped together. There she stands
As if alive. Will't please you rise? We'll meet
The company below, then. I repeat,
The Count your master's known munificence
Is ample warrant that no just pretense
Of mine for dowry will be disallowed;
Though his fair daughter's self, as I avowed
At starting, is my object. Nay we'll go
Together down, sir. Notice Neptune, though,
Taming a sea-horse, thought a rarity,
Which Claus of Innsbruck cast in bronze for me!

   YES

wow
that. was. so. long.
just finished doing a thorough background on, and planning a trip to, the west african country Sierra Leone.
i don't want to go there.. glad we don't really have to for this stupid class.
i'd have to get a million and one vaccinations, fly to three different places before i could actually even get to africa, and it'd cost an absurd amount of money and time.
anyway.
it took about three hours.
i feel wonderfully free now.
free to hate my teacher with my whole conciousness!

   a crisis of BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS!!

...well not really...
it's just that i have made a set of panpipes for science and i STILL CANNOT PLAY THEM!! no matter how hard i try! my friend made some too, in lieu of there not being directions anywhere on how to make a harmonica, and SHE can play them and i just CAN'T-_-
i've tried like... every angle in existence
all i can get out of them is a whisper
but i know they work- i just don't seem to be able to handle them-_-
....anyway....
i'm so friggin' tired today.
i feel like i haven't slept in a week.
and my classmates were being particularly obnoxious so i almost lost my mind (this seems to happen noticeably often and i think something should be done about it... i'm just not sure what) again. this time it was the (exceedingly fun) pastime of theirs of seeing how loud they could shout obscenities (and i DON'T mean the swear-word kind- obscenities is the NICE way to put it) without getting detention.
this...
is not....
good for my spiritual well-being.
anyway
spiritual well-being aside, i'm alright.
because it's friday.

   The Saturday Morning that was not a Saturday Morning

it's very boring here. day-before-yesterday some friends of my parents' and their two daughters came to stay with us. they just left a few hours ago. and well, it was pretty fun because one of them liked anime and all.. but tiring
yesterday my parents got me out of school early so i could go for a sail with the daughters, so my dad and me and them went out and did some hard-core sailing (not really.)
i would like to tell you that navigating a sailboat is tons of fun, but in actuality it's a bit boring and i've done it a lot, so i didn't end up doing much steering. tried to draw a picture of a guy that my dad WOULDN'T say looked "androgynous" which by the way means someone who looks like they could be a guy or a girl, kinda failed, then dad told me to give him a beard so i did and then they said he looked kind of like jesus. which wasn't so great since he was supposed to be a pirate.
A-A-ANyway... after that, we got back, very tired, and then dad told me that barbara custis, the woman who owns the plant nursery maplewood gardens, wanted me to (dad is not very good at relaying information) "arrange some flowers or something"
so he took me there, dropped me off, took the girls home, and i was informed of my job, which was basically going into the barn where they keep all their garden decor and such that's for sale and rearranging everything so it looked nice. quite a task since normally, everything looks nice, however they got a bunch of new stuff in so everything was kinda scattered at random. so i got to play the interior decorator (and yes i got paid) which was kind of fun. though with all of the running to and from greenhouses with potted plants and dragging furniture around (got more than a few hostile/odd looks from her regular workers, like 'what the hell does that girl think she's doing? does she even work here?') it was rather tiring. at one point i tried to put a plant in a hanging basket and the whole thing (three attached hanging baskets) came down on my head. fortunately it didn't hurt all that much. so i had to get some guy who worked there to hang it back up for me. (didn't like him- he stares too much.)
so yeah.. after a while it looked pretty good in there. which is great considering i didn't know what the hell i was supposed to do when i got there, and she thought i'd gotten all the info beforehand.
and so compared to how hectic yesterday was, right now i'm bored, bored, bored.
and just for the record, 900 visits.

Something vaguely interesting to relate

welll, today in geography i was moved out of my usual comfort zone since we had to review for a test and the teacher needed an equal number of students on both sides of the room. i was sitting next to this guy named frankie, who is small and rather harmless-looking, but who swears alarmingly often. it's actually kind of funny though.
anyway, he wanted the teacher to call on james because he knew the answer, so he yelled "click on james!"... obviously not thinking what he was saying. that was pretty funny.
then it was his turn to answer a question off the test, and i glanced to my left, but didn't see him there. not really registering anything, i looked back to the front, then did a double-take when i heard a voice say "don't move- stay right there"
and i looked down and he was on the floor next to my chair. hiding. hiding from the teacher.
anyway then someone ratted him out after which he threatened to kick their ass.
well, that's my day.

i just found the favorite song of last year
when we had french class... there was this commercial in french that the teacher made us try to translate
and it's an ad but it's FUNNY
because the commercial was kinda scary, it was sung by these freaky people....well to get the joke of it all, you have to see the ad
but anyway
here's the song, i just found the lyrics and i'm sad because i can't remember half the tune

THE KIWI SONG OF AWESOMENESS

et ton papa aussi, et ta maman aussi
et ton tonton aussi et ta
marraine assui. billets, s'il vous plait
oui, oui.
voici la carte kiwi

moitie prix?
c'est pas possible!
mais si, c'est possible.
avec la carte kiwi, l'enfant de moins de seize ans
et ceux qui l'accompagnent jusqu'a quatre personnes
paient tous moitie prix.
im enfant, une carte kiwi
et on voyage a moitie prix.

i'm dead from the cuteness>_

hello, just writing this post so i can write up this part of a book that you probably don't care about and probably don't read, but i'm just bored XD
it was killing me with cuteness the other night and if i don't rave about it i'll just die.
it's from His Dark Materials book III (called The Amber Spyglass, by Philip Pullman)

"..She could see in his eyes that he knew at once what she meant, and that he was too joyful to speak. Her fingers were still at his lips, and he felt them tremble, and he put his own hand up to hold hers there, and then neither of them could look; they were confused; they were brimming with happiness. Like two moths clumsily bumping together, with no more wieght than that, their lips touched. Then before they knew how it happened, they were clinging together, blindly pressing their faces toward each other.
"Like Mary said," he whispered, "you know straight away when you like someone- when you were asleep, on the mountain, before she took you away, i told Pan-"
"I heard," she whispered, "I was awake and I wanted to tell you the same and now I know what I must have felt all the time: I love you, Will, I love you-"
The word "love" set all his nerves ablaze. All his body thrilled with it, and he answered her in the same words, kissing her hot face over and over again, drinking in with adoration the scent of her body and her warm, honey-fragrant hair and her sweet, moist mouth that tasted of the little red fruit.
Around them there was nothing but silence, as if all the world were holding its breath."

okay

now wasn't that cute??

   O..M.....G.

you know how AWFUL it is to watch movies in my class?? okay it's bad enough watching cheesy movies like Clash of the Titans in latin, but try ROMEO AND JULIET in english!! aaaauuuuuuuuugh!!!!!
the teacher actually sent one boy out before THAT scene because he was being so immature, and everyone else was too afraid to so much as cough for fear that the teacher would pick them out and say something degrading-_-'
okay, so let me say, we DID NOT need to see romeo totally naked (at least it was only from behind) but come on, once is bad enough, he doesn't have to stand there in front of the window for ten minutes with no clothes on (why do they always do that in movies anyway?)
and that was bad enough but if the boys weren't so busy trying to be quiet they probably would've fallen out of their chairs when juliet threw off those covers
*sighs*
i hate my freaking classmates
the silence was so oppressive as soon as knox and i got out of that class into the next we just had to laugh and laugh and laugh so we were obliged to tell the math teacher what was going on
i mean c'mon...
what's with that...
why do they feel the need to make you look at romeo's butt twelve times...
once is quite enough, thank you
anyway
this just adds to the cache of disturbing things in my head that haunt me off and on.
wheee.
