| got back from book camp it was alright truthfully, i found it kind of boring and mainly because everyone there thought they were the shit and that their opinions were the only right ones and that they were smarter then everyone else so i was so freaked out i almost died whenever i tried to make a comment about what we read except not really it just made me hesitant to say anything at all the people were pretty cool i have to admit, a little snobby but i met this awesome kid named ian and im serious i friggin loved him... he acted like he was gay but claimed he wasnt but serious he was hilarious and then i got really close with this girl eden, she slept over mostly every night because her roommate was mean. her mom was the vice president of disney channel, which was really surprising, because she was more easy going then basically everyone else, haha and i met this girl maddy who was amazing, we'd be really close if we lived closer. her face looked EXACTLY like molly waitt's, it was freaky. and this girl hallie followed eden around. i felt bad because i think she was just using eden because she had a computer and hair straightener and wanted to meet disney celebs or something? i guess its good that i had all those things and have no interest in ever meeting those people i was supposed to go to a concert with angela on friday but supposedly the location has changed to six flags and my parents can't drive and her parents can't drive so she's trying to invite people to use them to get a ride... it's pretty horrible. and she's all 'OH WHAT ABOUT YOUR FRIEND MEGAN CAN SHE GIVE US A RIDE?!@:!P2 oq3jrwihei' megan's not even going to this concert, ive told her 23123 times. im dissappointed, but accept the fact that considering the concert is two hours away and we have no way of getting there, that pretty much means we can't go
ive had a pretty lowkey return i went to the movies with my mom yesterday, then i went to a soccer game with my dad. i missed them :) today i went swimming with alex and nate, haha. and then michelle silverman asked me to her pool, and i feel bad because ive been tentative to hang out with her and just said i could. so we'll see how that goes tomorrow i think im going into boston with betty anne, then we're seeing RENT! and then wednesday is jackie's thing and i'm really excited, i think im going to make something cool for that :D i might go to maine on thursday to see ellen cuz she said the little girl isabel that i absolutely loved last year remembers me and misses me and ahh i wanna visit her :D then maybe the concert on friday if angela's wrong and it isn't relocated and then ryan's thing on saturday and then prince edward island and then italy and then chilling for a couple of weeks and then... school.

| got back from acting camp in rhode island that actually turned out to be more of a singing camp and i dont think i have a BAD voice, just not a good one but surprisingly everyone thought i was really good, which was weird :/ but also really nice, of course i still dont think im all that great, i just think they were surprised because im REALLY shy and whatnot but on stage im really loud and such but urghh i went with megan and she followed around the photographer and whatnot and she was really competitive with me to get the other kids to like her more which i did not really feed into at all, it was extremely weird actually i really bonded with this ADORABLE girl named tori and this nice girl sarah and this ADORABLE boy nat but there was this counselor there named nick and he was the most adorable guy i have ever met i didnt really talk to him that much and im not quite sure if he was gay or not but i would seriously date him and im pretty sure im going to miss him the most because he's kind of shy like me, but we fooled around a little and he brought me into the hallway once to help me with a solo and he was so sweet and helpful i friggin loved him so much, not even really all that romantically, just 'wow, this is sincerely a great person with a lot of talent and a really big heart' and you don't find a lot of people with a heart as good as his i sound really cheesy but i dont care because i already miss him oh, and he's only two years older then me so this shouldn't sound as creepy as it would if he was like 342 :) theres more i could write, but i dont really want to going to jen's pool party like 5 hours late but it goes till 11 anyway and im RIDICULOUSLY tired sunday i go to another overnight camp not looking forward to it at all i mean this one was fine and everything but i was NEVER alone and im soo tired and have the biggest head ache and it just feels great to be alone in my room eh alright byebye :) | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment  |
| im kind of worried about my life right now betty anne woke me up by slapping my butt and asking for a hair elastic i dont have any on me (well, i do, but its just one on my wrist and she never gives them back so i just said i didnt have any) so she threats to spill nail polish remover on my face and im still pretty much asleep and dont know whats going on, but i figure she probably wont spill it and tell her its on the desk she looks on the desk and theres nothing there and continues to threat and like two seconds later spills it on my face WHO THE FUCK SPILLS NAIL POLISH REMOVER ON SOMEONES FACE. now im really awake it burns some of my skin peeled off im kind of concerned im home alone because my moms buying hair elastics and ba and my dad are at their soccer game and ive only had like five hours of sleep | comments: Leave a comment  |
| for some reason i just felt like really sad and ignored today for really no reason, i guess, besides the fact that i was getting the vibes that i was being unintentionally ignored and also i think some people were competitive with me today for some reason i didnt really do any competing back, i just felt really hurt. more hurt then i should have. i guess it was just one of those days...
tomorrows the national honors society inductions and im gunna get to wear fancy clothes. i dont have to wear my uniform! i decided to wear that dress i got from forever 21 with you jackie. eh? eh? i like it a lot
i have absolutely NO idea what im doing over april vacation and when i figured id spend a couple of days in maine and pick up my easter basket (i left it in a closet because my little cousins have this habit of eating me candy. it was basically the best basket ive ever gotten considering i liked EVERYTHING in it and if they found it and ate some im going to be sooo mad. cuz i havent eaten any yet cuz easter dinner made me feel REALLY sick and i think it was the lamb and bleck.) and then suddenly my parents spring on me that we're probably going to go to old greenwhich, too... which probably means we might go to new york. but im just really confused. i have absolutely no idea whats going on and i want to know when i can hang out with friends and GO TO THE CARNIVAL. I LOVE THE CARNIVAL SOOO MUCH. even though i get really sick on spinny rides i just like the atmosphere, i guess, haha.
tennis went until six today. i really wish we could do homework there because it took an hour to get home and then i ate dinner and now i have to do about 34234 hours of homework.
lost is REALLY good. i like it even better then i thought i would... except im on the second season and watching that stupid episode that doesnt have characters that i like in it. dont really want to go into any more detail considering someone might read it who wants to start watching the show and get made. :/ its sooo intense, though. and i absolutely LOVE charlie. like a lot.
eheh i should really do homework. eh. | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment  |

hah i really dont know half day today, that was cool gym- eh, alright. we played dodgeball. actually got a buttload of people out for a change, usually im quite awkward. the gym teachers all 'OMG FRANK (she calls me frank? :/) I HEARD YOU WERE FRIKKIN HILARIOUS IN THE PLAY!' which made me feel pretty good... lots of people have told me they thought i did well but i think its mostly because im kind of quiet and "sweet" and seeing me play a mean-ish character surprised them... and made them think i was better then i really was, haha. english-did my speech. fewwww... did it on how america tortures people and how bad i think it was and whatnot. it was pretty easy to be persuasive, because, er... i dont really know that many people in my class that are for torture. anywho, we also passed in portfolios. foo-wah, lots of projects in this class, i must say. religion- AHHH. so boring. want to rip my fingernails off just for something to do... sometimes it can be cool, though... i like analyzing parables. haha. i sound like a nerd, but i s'pose i am. took a quiz, pretty sure i aced it... because we're allowed to use the notes we did for homework. so its kind of hard not to ace it. algebra 2- hah i love mr keolsh, hes the man. i thought i didnt understand what we were doing, but i figured it out. just dont like factoring, is all. we got to start working on flashcards for midterms. wow, midterms, cant believe its already halfway through the year... oh yah, i caaan... gosh some people are all 'wow cant believe weve been in school for over three months!" but i canicanican when you think back to the first day of schoool... and summer... ahh summer, i miss it. i want it to snow, though. winters not worth being here without the snow yearbook- i love yearbook. maybe ill go work on finishing my page soon. home- abigail came home with me, we watched the clique (haha) and ordered pizza. fun times. then she left and me and bad played uno fun stuff | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |

| hmm my lifes actually going pretty well ive put myself on a routine i actually like and it involves going to bed around 9-10 on school nights which is AMAZING considering it means waking up at 5:30 all perky and happy and ready to go dunking donuts but everyone at school is just bothering me i feel like suffocated or something and its getting to the point where i just want to scream i absolutely love my chemistry teacher though hes SOOO adorable and im convinced hes gay... but has little crushes on some of the girl teachers. both make him even more adorable yah doesnt make sense but i dont care cuz i love him andrew keeps calling me and txting me and he keeps on going on long rants and then he goes "DAMN THAT WAS ONE HELL OF A SPEECH" and gets offended if im not "hell yah andrew your the man!" cuz truthfully i dont understand a word he says :/ he means well though and hes one of those people i actually feel comforatable with pointing out his flaws cuz for some reason he loves it and appreciates it which is really refreshing i cant wait until thanksgiving because i think im going to do whatever my dads side of the family is doing for the actual turkey eating thanksgiving bit then for the weekend vacation bit im going to maine so ill get to see everyone... not exactly sure whose going on my dads side of the family so cant say much about that but on my moms side of the family i get to see my cousin katherine whose a freshman at stonehill and i actually consider her like one of my closest friends... shes always kind of been my role model which sounds kind of silly and little-kiddish but it feels nice to have someone whose so much older then you take you seriously and talk to you and joke around with you and i dont know... she chooses me over lots of her friends sometimes which just makes me feels really good about myself dont really know why i went so deep onto that health class is just like controlling my life i guess haha even though we only have it once a week which is pretty cool i love how many studies i have cuz sophomore year is sooo much worse then freshman year the teachers are stricter the word is harder the tests are more frequent but i feel really satisfied with my grades, which is good my mom wants me to consider transferring cuz this year the classes are bigger then i would have liked and the commute is brutal and the teachers arent as great and the activities are mediocre
but im worried transferring would just stress me out

| i just realized if been kind of silent livejournaling ive been here, but i havent really commented or posted on anything so maybe i should i suppose ill start with my classes? yes, yes i think i shall
honors geometry- i have this creeper named ms seefeld and shes just so frikken creepy. i dont know what to think about her but she wasted 15 minutes of class talking about how she read the dictionary and enjoyed shopping at the dollar store. this actually made the class less bearable and i actually started wanting to learn about numbers. oh well, its her life. the class is waay bigger then it should be as well... like most of my classes this year.
french 2- my french teacher has an italian accent and i have no idea what the crap hes saying. luckily the class is small, just the way i like it :D but we have a test every day, which can be a little stressful. its only like 5-10 words but still... i also met a new friend-type whos pretty cool but theres already some tension between her and another friend. highschool is a weirdo.
honors chemistry- i have mr hickman!! whos basically the most ADORABLE teacher in the WORLD! SOMETIMES HE EVEN DRIVES AROUND WITH A PUMPKIN ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR! it always feels like he puts me on the spot and asks me the hardest questions and i dont know what the answer is and this junior sits next to me and she has a really red face and she just STARES at me... which is a bit creepy. this class is waay too big as well which is bad.
phys ed- 7 sophmores, 7 juniors, 1 senior. this girl taylor chiumento is like obsessed with me in this class and follows me around cuz we're semi-friends from the van but shes one of those like popular girls but not the boston-accented emily quinlin type the 'oh yeah we like to pretend we're from the ghetto we're cool' girls. she kind of scares me cuz i dont know she just says really mean things to me and i dont know if shes joking or not but its really unsettling. luckily this class is small? its also the study (3 days instead of 1, hurrah!) and health but i havent had health yet and study is pretty much self-explainatory.
honors english 2- my favorite class! got waay too big cuz they moved a lot of people up to honors, but because of the way the desks are set up i cant tell. i like my teacher a lot and i get to use my dandy new highlighters mucho! um yes and oui oui.
faith/mor- ms greiner again. shes nice and stuff. idk not my favorite class... really big, sitting next to christine who likes to write 'MARYFRANISAPERVET!' in random placeson my notebook cuz she thinks its funny...ah well.whatever.its okay.
honors algebra 2- teacher is SCARY! i seriously shake the whole way through class. hes just... really intense and goes really fast and like flips out if you get something wrong. hes actually a really nice person and i know this cuz im in his homeroom but god he freaks me out as a teacher :( the first day of school he walked out of his room wearing all black and sunglasses and just stands behind me watching me put up my locker shelves. finally i turn around and give him a 'why the crap are you watching me you creep?' look and his excuse is he wants to watch my locker shleves collapse. which they never do. | comments: 7 comments or Leave a comment  |
| i was going to finish my entry on pei but today was horrible i couldnt find my work shirt and the only shirt i could find was one of my favorites so i just wore that, and i carried it around after my boss gave me a new one i ended up leaving it at a golf course while i was taking a little kid there and its probably in the pouring rain and ill probably never see it again damn but thats just the minibadness i just realized the big thing is-i got in a fucking car accident i was waiting for this little five year old to finish tennis i had been waiting for him for AN HOUR half of it listening to my friend ellen being really annoying(sorry) and wanting me to call this guy he likes (i know him., hes a jerk. hed be creeped out if i called him) and txting him saying 'oh mf wants you to bring over a self-evaluation sheet' which was all wtf-ish... theeen i just waited its 2:35 the class comes out tennis instructer says to me 'Ryan(the fiveyearold im waiting for) just told me he has tennis at 2:30... which was 5 minutes ago. hes really tired and its a 15 minute walk, so do you want me to just drive you guys?' now this is a counselor whose liked by everyone and trusted by everyone and this sounds like a very good idea i say yes even though for some reason i have a really bad feeling about it... i wanted to call and ask my boss but i didnt have his number so while were driving she BACKS INTO A MAILBOX AND THE WINDOW SHATTERS ALL OVER THE PLACE
no one got hurt but i think my boss is pissed at me im all alone in a huge house in maine and i wanna go home
ahh well on a brighter note i had a nice team at the beach with the little ones and i only have to go to work 12-4! and maybe i dont have to go next week! if anyone wouldnt mind me being gone for 4 hours and wanted to come to maine just tell me | comments: 6 comments or Leave a comment  |

| yesterday was busy, but busy with good things :) first i got up and got dressed and got my haircut... i really like it but ba didnt like hers and refuses to leave her house. its kind of ridiculous and overdramatic but i dont know. then i got a message from catherine asking if i wanted to go to her house, so i did and we walked around melrose and talked and ate pizza. my hair looked a less just got a haircut-looking because the wind was blowing it all around, but thats alright. ooh and we got the best hot chocolate in the world and went back to her house and laughed at people on facebook after this my mom picked me up to go dress shopping for the semi. i think first we went to tjmaxx for whatever reason and there werent even dresses there, soo... then we went to i have no idea probably filenes basement and they had really nice desses but we can only wear black, white, or silver because there's a 'theme' and i just didnt really like the ones in those specific colors. then we went to macys where i tried on MY FAVORITE DRESS IN THE WORRLD. but they only had it in a size 0 so it obv didnt zip up all the way but i tried it on anyway cuz i loved it so much. then i went to deb and at first we were looking at the plus size dresses and were about to leave since there was nothing in my size and then we realized there was a different section... so i found lots of dresses and GOD MY SHOULDERS ARE JUST SO... LIKE, ABNORMALLY TINY OR THEYRE DETERIORATING OR SOMETHING cuz no matter how well the dress fit me the shoulder straps would always fall. which bothered me. then i tried on this white dress with a black bow and its kind of hard to describe because i dont think its as simple as it sounds, but it fit pretty well and i liked it, so i got it. it was purty cheep compared to all the other i saw there and macys and even some in filenes basement, so thats good. then i came home and cleaned up the kitchen table and liz and erica came over and we were silly making pizza and watching across the universe but after erica left liz told me something that pissed me off (not at her, just at a situation) then when liz left i talked to megan for like two hours... i didnt realize how much i had in common with her like were really capable of having a serious conversation that lasts a long time, and, you know? | comments: Leave a comment  |
