Lists of Stuff

Wow, is that an awesome title or WHAT????? 

Yeah, sometimes when my brain is cluttered, it helps if I list everything out. THis time, I decided to turn my list(s) into a blog post.

Books I am in the Middle of Reading:

• Prove It! You
• The Screwtape Letters
• Blood Bound
• 1st to Die: A Woman's Murder Club Novel
• The Time Travelers
• Fairest **I haven't started it yet, but I just bought it and I want to get around to it sometime before it begins to collect dust**

Stories I am in the Middle of Writing:

• My PJATO fanfic
• Song of the Siren
• My OtherSide Story
• My Maximum Ride fanfic

Okay, that helped a bunch. Now I'm going to try to get cracking on one of the stories, see if my muse comes to me and strikes me with literary insight or something.

P.S. I finally finished MAX!!!!!!! Yayness for me!!!!!! 

Pon and Zi

Okay, so this is basically my new obsession: Pon and Zi. They're these adorable little emo-ish cartoon characters. Chances are you've seen them before, but you just don't realize it. 

Okay, from what I've gathered, Pon is the blue girl, and Zi is the yellow boy. Sometimes you see a little pinkish person, but I'm not really sure who that is yet.

I think the basic storyline is that they're madly in puppy love, or at least Zi is madly in puppy love with Pon, because sometimes she seems to return his feelings, but sometimes she doesn't really seem to notice. 

But it's so adorable and wubbable how sweet Zi tries to be and how strong and brave and manly he tries to be around Pon. Evidently, he's failing at the whole "manly" thing, because when you see him you get the urge to just pick him up and hug him like a teddy bear, but still!!! It's SO cute!!! I bet if more guys were like Zi, tons more guys would be getting dates.**Dunno if the guy is Pon or Zi, I'm just guessing here!!!!!**

Here's a link to an unofficial Pon and Zi site that I've seen a bit of: [link]

And here's a couple of pics, cuz they're just so cute that I had to put it up:

Knowing

Nikki and I saw that new movie Knowing yesterday!!! The plot was actually really good-- it was about a little boy who finds a piece of paper filled with random numbers in his school's time capsule from 50 years ago. He takes the paper home, and his dad discovers that the paper lists every major natural disaster for the past 50 years in perfect sequence-- the date, location, how many people died, etc. The dad tracks who had written the numbers, and finds it was a little girl who had gone to the school 50 years ago. He finds the girl's-- Lucinda's-- daughter and granddaughter and ask them to please help them, because not only are there only 2 more disasters listed on the paper, but he thinks his son is in danger, because these mysterious people keep coming to him, though they haven't harmed him yet. 

If you want the full synopsis, you can Google it. 

Just so you know, the ending basically fell flat. I won't tell ya'll how it ends, in case anyone else decides to see it, but trust me, it is. 

Gonna go to a bridal shower today for my mom's cousin who I didn't even know existed until now. Urgh. 

Well, that's pretty much it for now. But before I go, I just wanna say-- I thank God for giving guys the attention spans of rodents and for them not being able to remember what made them angry 5 minutes ago.

Today's Threes

Okay, so now that it's Friday, and the week is only a few days from being over, let's have today's threes, shall we?

Top 3 Favorite Moments:

1. Playing basketball in gym with my besties (including Chanelly) and ALMOST winning!!! Hooray for tie games!!!!!
2. Talking about Twilight with two guys on my bus, including "So-and-so", who looked VERY good with his sleeves rolled up today.
3. Finally finishing Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead, which is the 3rd book in the Vampire Academy series.

Top 3 Least Favorite Moments:

1. Having to read an EXTREMELY boring book in Humanities class today.
2. Seeing how gross the lunch table had been left for us-- AGAIN. Those guys in 704 are such slobs.
3. Hearing someone talk badly about one of my friends right in front of me-- and watching someone else who I like to hang out with sometimes laugh at what Dipstick1 had said about her.

Top 3 Songs This Week:

1. Dear Mr. President-- P!nk [link]
2. Come Back-- Lesley Roy [link]
3. Sweet Dreams-- Eurythmics [link] 

Top 3 Books This Week:

1. Shadow Kiss By Richelle Mead
2. Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
3. My Brother Sam is Dead by James and Chris Collier (Not that I like it-- quite the contrary. It's just that this was the book I had to read for Humanities class, and I couldn't think of another book for this week.)

My 3 Goals for This Week:

1. To brush up on my softball skills (or lack thereof.....)
2. To be more all around more active.
3. To study for tests/quizzes more. 

Follow-Up on Last Time's Goals:

1. I've been trying to watch what I eat, but sometimes temptation is difficult to resist.....
2. I've also been trying to work on my stories, but with homework, school, friends, family, and just plain old laziness, I haven't really had time. Will try to try harder.
3. I've been working on that, and I think I'm working towards my goal well. Might elaborate in a separate post, might not. I'll see.

Well, that pretty much wraps it up for now. See you around, ya'll!!!!

New York State Math Test 2

Okay, I took Part 2 of the New York State Standardized Mathematics Exam today, so now it's FINALLY OVER!!!!!!! WHOOOO!!!!!!!!! That is, until next year of course......... dang it. 

I know I got a few questions wrong, even though I checked over my work...... but whatever. They were stupid mistakes, I know where I went wrong.... blah, blah, blah. 

And yes, I DID check over my work!!!! OH!!! WHAT NOW!!!!!! And I WASN'T thinking about how cute "so-and-so" looks with his sleeves rolled up!!!!! Mostly because he didn't have his sleeves rolled up when the test was in session, but....... that's beside the point. 

Anyway.

So now I'm bored, and hungry, and kinda tired, and I want to do something, but I'm not sure what, and..... yeah. If you have something funny/entertaining/you just HAVE to put in you comment to say........ drop a line.

Peace and Hufflemuffins

New York State Math Test

So yes. As you can tell from the title, I've got to take Part 1 of the New York State Standardized Mathematics Exam tomorrow. Urgh. Just kill me now. 

It's not like I'm bad in math or anything-- quite the opposite, I got a perfect score on this thing last year. It's just that the test is so boring, and I'm scared that I'll make stupid mistakes that I won't realize I've made or something, because that's really what winds up happening with me. And I also have a hard time checking my work sometimes. I mean, I JUST took the test maybe 5 SECONDS AGO- WHY THE HECK WOULD I WANT TO HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN???? This is usually my state of mind by the time I'm finished. But by then I've got maybe 20 minutes left to go, and I'll usually just start to space out, as per usual. I might end up starting to think about what's for lunch, what's happening next in this book I'm reading, how so-and-so looks so cute with his sleeves rolled up...

You get the picture. And I know this is kind of last minute, but does anyone have any idea how I can keep my mind on the test and just flippin' check my work before time's up so I know I've done all I can do???? Thank ya. 

Until then, I'll just have to try to keep my mind from wandering......... not an easy task, rest assured.

Okay, that's about it for now. Later, people!

Snow Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I didn't have to go to school because there was so much snow the buses couldn't come and the roads were blocked!!!!!!!!! Yayness!!!!!!!!
So yeah, today I wrote a bit, read a bit, ate, watched T.V., went on the computer, went bikini shopping (oh, yeeeaaaaah) and...... ate. So yeah, clearly I have an exciting life.
What's awesome was that Chanel, Nikki, Maura, and Joey all had off too! Rachel didn't have off though, and neither did Emily or Kali, I don't think. If they did, they weren't on when I was on.... gr. And Spencer wasn't on when I was on, either, but I don't think he goes to school. So yeah.....
Well, I guess that pretty much raps it up for now.
Catch Ya Later,
CJ
