In Between Here and There is Now


(That's Kitterbee's brother, being awesome. Sorta like my weekend. Haha!)

Hihi!

THIS WEEKEND HAS BEEN COMPLETELY MADE OF AWESOME. I kid you not. Too bad it's now exam week again. :(

FRIDAY:
School was, of course, very blah and such. Exam that took 15ish minutes (excluding my FAIL with erasing; I mean, really. That took 10 minutes of life.) followed by two "study sessions" of boredom and failness. Whee?

After school and being a lazybutt for an hour or so, I drove over to Elphaba's to pick her up and then on to Kitterbee's, to illegally transport both of them to Starbucks and then the school talent show.

Cromy-crom was BEHIND ME IN HIS CAR AND IT FREAKED ME OUT. I seriously spazzed for ten minutes when he was behind me. It was awful. I would say that Elphaba was a bit concerned for my sanity at that point, but due to the fact that she was hanging over the back of the passenger-side seat, I don't believe she was that flabbergasted. And she knows me, so my insanity is altogether normal.

Anyway, we went to Starbucks... after I failed and drove all the way to the school parking lot before realizing that we were supposed to be at Starbucks. And then we drank CHOCOLATE FRAPPUCINOS (sp?) and ate marshmallows-on-sticks and played games for an hour, before driving up to the school again and meeting up with Rorito. She was angry because we confused her and were almost late.

The talent show was amazing except for the expected sound failings and the fact that I screamed about my brain exploding when it was almost over. But a lot of my friends who I haven't seen in awhile were there, so that was really great!

AFTERWARDS, there was scrambling/running around crazily/trying to figure out transportation because Rorito and I were spending the night with Kitterbee and there's curfew and blah-blah-blah. I stuck Bingo with driving Rorito and Kitterbee in his Crapmobile because he and Kitterbee go out now so HA.

When I made it (IN RECORD TIME! sorta.) to Kitterbee's, Bingo was still there, and there was a lot of piano-playing and singing and such. I dislike that, because I don't sing nor do I play piano, so I feel all left out and that is really uncomfortable. Bingo went home, and Kitterbee, Rorito, and I were pretty calm, which was odd. I read a book that Kitterbee handed me because it had a happy ending and I do love books with expected, cliche, fairy-tale happy endings. The three of us slept in the same bed, which resulted in amusing quotes.

SATURDAY:
After sitting in the back of Rorito's mom's convertible Bug (WHICH I LOVE. It's like sticking your head out of a window like a dog!!!!) for an hour or so while the Mommies chatted, they dropped me off at Molly's. We put on running shorts (no taking off our underwear in the middle of a field this time! YAY!) and went on the Trail.

It was all muddy, so we sorta mud-skated around, before hopping over to Reharrison's house to see/convince him to puddle-sit with us. He wasn't home and we lost patience, so we went back to the HUGE MUDDY PUDDLE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD and sat for a very long time. As we sat there, our hair suddenly grew FIVE FEET LONG, so we freaked out and hopped away, taking care to avoid the dismembered Awkward that apparently had been sharing the puddle with us.

We skipped over to Molly's again, drained the kiddie pool that her mom recently bought (she KNEW we wanted to get in it! She's the one who told us to drain it first because Monkeyturd had put his nasty toeses in it!) and then re-filled it with nice, cool water and sat with Jake in the kiddie pool for a very long time. It was amazing and we had major issues getting out even though we were DYING OF HUNGRY. But we were all chilly from the kiddie pool, so we laid out in her driveway in just running shorts and sports bras. A very strangely girlie moment for us; we're not usually into sunbathing, but I think we have discovered the appeal. You get all warm and the sun is so nice!

Every single time MAlly hangs out, we get the CRAVING to capture a Mexican and fry 'im up, so we did that. (I am JOKING. JOKING. JOKING. We want Mexican food; that's our weirdly-awful way to say that. Sorry if that offends anybody! o.O) SO, we got out 50 million plates and knives and made fantastic tacos! YAY! We followed the Fattie Clubbing with a cat-nap with puffy pillows on the floor of Molly's room.

When we woke up, we were hungry again, so we made cookie dough. Without salt and baking soda, so it would never make it to cookie form. Heck yeah. At that point, we realized that the Alternative Prom (Alt Party) was THAT NIGHT, so we had to come up with costumes. Eventually, we decided on being The Devils On Your Shoulders. Obviously we couldn't be an angel and a devil because Molly has TWO RED CAPES OF AWESOME and we wanted to wear them. We found magicalness and were all excited and such. We are surprisingly good at being devilish ^_^!

Basically, the Alt Party was SUPER FUN and a lot of my/our friends were there; we met some new people, too. Beret, Prettyhair, Peter Pan, Edward, Crant, Farst, Rooster, Yos, and way more. There was food (foodfoodfood) and dancing (like grinding and/or dancing like a whore because that is amazingly fun; I failed a test.) as well as spazzing, sparklers (!), and board games. (Normally, that would be like ehh? but they were fun. Yep.)


At 11:00, Molly's mom picked us up and then I spent the night with her. We texting Dumbo, Rorito, Elphaba, and a lot of people "*DING!* It's sunday! Time to go to church!" at midnightish and surprisingly, we got REPLIES. Dumbo generally is asleep by then so that was particularly odd. He texted me about trebuchets at 1:34 (as in AM) and that was very confusing to my sleep-addled self at 8something when we woke up.

SUNDAY:
Molly and I decided that we needed PLANS WITH PEOPLE today, so we called Astronaut (whose number I creeped off Bingo's phone) and informed him (we don't ask) that he was going to come creek-romping with us at 1:30. Rorito, Crant, Kitterbee, Benjamin, King Toast, and Bingo were all invited, but it ended up being MAlly, Rorito, Kitterbee, Astronaut, and Crant. Molly and I ate leftover cookie dough for breakfast.

Rorito was EARLY since she lives in Molly's neighborhood and the three of us just hung out and were bored for awhile before everybody else showed up. Bingo was auditioning for a role in Rent at the local theatre, so he couldn't make it (we told him to break a leg and a foot), so he couldn't make it and both Molly and I had to be Replacement-boyfriends for Kitterbee because she missed him. It was cute!

Creek-romping was AMAZINGLY fun except for the part where:
  1. Rorito injured herself
  2. Crant got sand and rocks in my bra, and I had to get them out...
  3. THERE WAS A SNAKE. A BIG SNAKE. IN THE WATER. SORTA. BUT NOT REALLY. AND IT WAS AHHHHH!!!!! (I am afraid of snakes. Apparently.)
... and after hanging out in Molly's basement, playing telephone (heck yeah.) and being random for awhile, we all CRAMMED into Mom's car and she drove us home. I got my pillow back from Kitterbee's house, so YAY!

The weekend is over now; it's exam week (sorta) again, drama continues (I have a chorus of six-or-so-people encouraging me to ask Dumbo out and Flailure is... well, flailing. Poor boy.), and I HAVE SHINTS. (Shin splints. From fail. Yuck.)

Last week of school!
WHOO!

Best of luck on any exams/trials/annoyances/drama in your life :)

Good Mornings, Afternoons, and Days

Hihi!

Tis "Alleh". Molleh needs to stop posting whiney I'M SICK! Blogs. Really, Molly? Have you done NOTHING interesting at ALL while being miserably sick? You could just make something up, you know.

Anyway, while Molly has been sick, I have been at SCHOOL. Contrary to Molly's opinion, I am still sick (still coughing, sneezing, sniffling, etc.) but I don't have a fever and generally I can speak.

During the past two days of school, I have had interesting adventures-- and I've had GOOD days.

Thursday:
Like always, I texted "Good morning!" to people: Rorito, Molly, Dorothy, Edward, Sisteramy, and Elphaba. Rorito SNAPPED at me, which made me sad because who SNAPS when somebody wishes them a good morning? Everybody else responded well, but Rorito was like "GRRRR DON'T WAKE ME UP." (I learned later that she had been up since 6:40 so it was excuseable, but I only woker her up a minute before her alarm, so I don't understand what the big deal was.)

Going to school that day, I had a cool conversation with Reharrison.

Aly: *walking towards classroom*
Reharrison: "Good morning!"
Aly: *just inside the doorway; turns around; spazzes out* "YOU SAID GOOD MORNING! THAT'S GOOD!"
Reharrison: "I always say good morning. Cuz it IS a good morning!"
Aly: "I text Good Morning to people! And it is a good morning. But Rorito snapped at me this morning. :("
Reharrison: "Oh, that sounds like her. You see, this is why I can't be the replacement Rorito. I'm a morning person."
Aly: "You may have a point. Maybe."
Reharrison: *smirk + grin*
Aly: "Well, see you in Chem...."
Reharrison: "Bye, Aly."

It was random and it made me laugh. Mostly because the spaz about it was not a small spaz. It was this crazed, whirlling, spin-dance of "AHA!".

The day continued to be good, even though Molly was not in Civics. I didn't pay attention and instead wrote in Seussgirl's yearbook in the colorful pens Molly gave me last year after going to Charleston. :)

*skipping to lunch*

Since I had failed on Rednoseday (Wednesday) to write more than Croissant in Hosef's yearbook, he gave me his yearbook to write in during lunch. But because of strange timing, Jedi Princess and I had to sit with Prettyhair, Beret, and Rumor. Being Theatre kids, Prettyhair, Beret, and Jedi Princess all know each other; Jedi Princess and I used to sit with Rumor; I'm friends with Prettyhair from the Disney trip and I used to accidentally stalk him; Beret and Prettyhair date each other.

Prettyhair, Beret, and I all got pizza-- Beret didn't finish hers. Prettyhair doesn't like Hosef very much, but neither do most people that know him. Somehow, the idea was put forth (between Beret and Prettyhair) to put Beret's unfinished pizza in Hosef's yearbook (on my page...) because:
  1. He'd never forget me.
  2. It's original.
  3. Hosef is a donkey (*cough*).


Of course, this caused crazy laughter. And, so... Jedi Princess, Prettyhair, and Beret all pick up the piece of pizza and (SPLAT!) put it on the page. Then... we closed the yearbook. Causing the grease and pizza sauce to go ALL OVER my page (and Croissant's). We all busted out laughing... until later when I felt INSANELY GUILTY. I just can't be MEAN to people and not feel bad about it! The worst thing is, I had Hosef sign my yearbook before giving him his back, and he wrote NICE THINGS in my yearbook! I felt WORSE after reading it. (On the bright side, I had cleaned up his yearbook and wrote over the grease stain). He's not MAD about it (because I still WROTE a lot, even if it wasn't a great yearbook page since it got all *crazyeyes*).

Later, Elphaba and I went to the Band Concert; we learned that we are TERRIBLE audience members-- we spent the time passing notes on the back of the Courtesy-of-the-Arts-Board-Annoy-People-Packet, texting Bingo, and hoping that Dumbo would text me back. After it was done, Dorothy was a creeper, and then Elphaba and I went to the grocery store and got BEN AND JERRY'S!, which we consumed while creeping in my car. It was SO FUN! :D

Even LATER, Kangaroo-kiddo wrote me a poem. Which was awesome, and makes me smile. So sweet! :D!

Friday:
Was a pretty good day! Starting off with text from Dumbo saying plans were possible for this weekend (even though he's sickly). I texted him back a tackle-hug, and then when I saw him randomly in the morning in the hall, I got him to hug me WITHOUT having to convince him into it! WHOOHOO! Hug-training! :D

Blahblahblah, so it was a good day and I got ANOTHER hug from him (awkward side hug) at lunch. And life is good.

Yesterday (as in Saturday because I failed at posting this yesterday), I had TWO parties. Sadly, the first one (which I was at for less time) was MORE awesome than the second one, but it's okay. Dumbo was texting me, and we tried to make plans with Elphaba for today. That failed because he's a peacher's kid and he's so SWEET (he's currently visiting his grandmother in a nursing home! Aww! :)).

HE IS SO OBLIVIOUS! GRR.

At least his hug-training is progressing nicely. He will soon join the ranks of Benjamin and Astronaut. I am DETERMINED!

Okay, this was REALLY LONG but I need to go now. Maybe plans with Molly? Maybe? Please? :)

  2. Beckett: "What do you have up your sleeves?"
    Castle: "Aside from my muscular arms?"
  3. Martha: "What's Owen like?"
    Castle: "I don't know, I haven't met him."
    Martha: "You haven't met him?! And you said YES to letting Alexis go to prom with him?"
    Castle: "*shrug* Yeah."
    Martha: "You're a TERRIBLE father!"
  4. Castle: "So, tell me, little man... have you ever been to prison?"

Anyway. It's awesome. Go watch it. THEY WILL HAVE A SEASON TWO! <3

P.S. Crant watches Castle! YAY! :)

"You'd better not laugh at dead animals!"

Hihi!

Today is THURSDAY. WHEE!

There's nothing special about Thursdays, either; they are just the day between Rednoseday/Hump Day/Wednesday and Friday.

Molly and I finally got to perform our wax museum piece for Mrs (teacherwestilldon'thaveanamefor). Only after laughing at the IBM Satan, runner-ing, laughing, and my Distraction. Mrs (teacherwestilldon'thaveanamefor) had us go through our act FOUR TIMES, which was slightly ridiculous....

(But you see, what happened was:)
The first time, I mixed up two lines and that threw Molly off.
The second time, Molly got lost and started laughing. Then we spent 5 minutes trying to focus and Mrs (teacherwestilldon'thaveanamefor) kept trying to calm us down by telling us to think of the ocean or the mountains, which in MAlly-speak, brings up hilarity. Until we tried thinking of past pets, and Mrs (teacherwestilldon'thaveanamefor) told us that "You'd better not laugh at dead animals!"... which made us laugh. w00t.
The third time, it was perfect. Just too fast.
The fourth time, it was perfect and slow. And our script is apparently GREAT, which is a BIG RELIEF.
Oh, and there's the added bonus of Mrs (teacherwestilldon'thaveanamefor) thinking we're completely nuts. YAY! :)

I LOVE THE GREEK DRESS I'M BORROWING FROM KITTERBEE FOR DAY 80. It's amazing.

Why must Dumbo be so...dumb?
Pink elephants on parade!

Kangaroo-kiddo sent me awesome youtubeness:

-Pussycat Dolls' version of "Jai Ho" (from Slumdog Millionaire, which was awesome.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFpZ2mlR04I

-Erin McCarley, "Love, Save the Empty" (it's in He's Just Not That Into You, but this is the actual video for the song.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAtmPlQPo_s&feature=channel

And then I found a song by the actress who plays "Christine" in Phantom of the Opera (the movie, that is), and I like the lyrics. The music is a bit weird, and it's a bit breathy/airy for my liking but STILL.

-Emily Rossum, "Slow Me Down"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0eGe-VV7I8

Go watch/listen. These are all videos worth watching. :)

It's late and TOMORROW IS FRIDAY!
Goodnight!
