"there's the moon asking to stay
long enough for the clouds to fly me away
well it's my time coming, i'm not afraid to die
my fading voice sings of love,
but she cries to the clicking of time
oh, time"

I'm not emo I swear...

Annnnd. if anyone wants to be in a reject video for pinkerton idol let me know. we need more people to be in them.

I've officially declared this one of the best vacations i've ever experienced. Um..tuesday nick and I saw When a stranger calls....and I thought it was scary...haha but nick did not..so whatever, I scare easily....surprise surprise. Wednesday was a wicked sick bowling adventure!  I didn't bowl because of my back...but i def. paid for the shoes anyway because I adore bowling shoes to no end. Dan, Sam, and Brian vs. Nicole, Nick, Heather, and Heather's brother......a battle to the death. basically wicked intense. haha not really but sam makes me laguh with his lack of skill.....then nick, nicole, and I went to the mall...nothing out of the ordinary there... Thursday I told myself I was going to be productve...but it didn't really work. So then nick, sam, ali, kyle, and I went to court's because it was her sweeeet 16!!! succch a good time. Um...we ate...and played dreamphone, where I met Jamal...and then ali and I slept over after watching beauty and the geek. duh! lol













haha



hmm I'll post pictures from courtney's later

Vacation's been pretty good so far. My dad and I went out to eat on Fri. then I went to nick's! um sat. I had DI and then didn't really do anything...except look at hot tubs!!! woo! I can't wait til we get it...even thoguh it'll be like four months...whatever. Sunday I went out with Kit and Nicole to the japanese steak house. soooooo good!!! and we saw Mrs. Henderson which is probaly one of the greatest movies i've seen in a while.
Today I went to breakfast with nick, kyle, and court. then we went on errands with nick's mom, that I thoroughly enjoyed. lol
but I got home at like 10...and haven't done anything since then! I'm bored out of my mind and I can't even leave because my mom's sick.
lame :-(

p.s.

I believe in the sand beneath my toes,
The beach gives a feeling,
An earthy feeling,
I believe in the faith that grows,
And the four right chords can make me cry,
When I'm with you I feel like I could die.
And that would be all right


haha nicole and I showed that song who's boss!

Haven't updated in a while....


well basically I love the discovery channel...
and I'm getting back into puzzles.
PALS was a pretty sweet time.
a buttload of other stuff happened...but i forget
AND vacation is soooo soon!!! being this excited probably isn't healthy

yeah....amy and I made cookies last week...


but instead...we magnetized amy's nose with my magnet balls!


plus, we make an amazing mess....this wasn't even half of it


yeah...so that was pointless. whatever

This week's been a mess. actually this whole year has been a mess. it's been one bad thing after another and they don't seem to be getting any better. But everything that's happened has made me realize that I really do have to take care of myself before I can take care of other people. I used to be able to just have everyone else's problem's piled on me along with my own, which is the way I like, but lately I've been so run down and I can't just keep letting this stuff build up. I have to let other people know when I need a break and when I need to talk to them, because if I'm a mess myself I can't help other people. and I'd never want that to happen. And please don't read this and think "well I'm not going to tell Liz my problems anymore" because that's honestly not what I want at all. I love helping my friends, but now I just have to take care of myself first.

Everything will fall into place eventually. This is all just a test. And I know a lot of people have been breaking down lately, myself included, you guys have to know that I'm always here for you guys, and I expect nothing in return.

thanks Steph, Krista, Nicole, and Joss! we've had some amazing talks this week!





"what is this i hear of sorrow and weariness,
anger, discontent, and drooping hopes?
DEGENERATE SONS AND DAUGHTERS,
life is too strong for you -
it takes life to love Life."

Nicole came over after school and we did some serious caking *(new word)*
Then MOVIE NIGHT. I had a good time. we watched Lean on Me and Fantastic Four (for the hot guy)

haha ohhh life


( these are weird pictures... )

So today has actually been pretty nice. The snow looks wicked pretty outside, and even though we didn't go to breakfast I'm still have a good, productive time. I'm almost done a scarf i started making and have been listening to O.A.R and guster all day. I also cleaned my room AND did laundry. yeah...I'm quite content with life.

Maybe I'll go watch season 3 of boy meets world and have hot chocolate!


( random pics )

nicole and I spent some serious quality time together on friday.


We talked a lot.


Because we haven't talked in a while.


so it was good.


and then saturday was pretty much the worst day of my life, but I'm working on changing some stuff so it'll be fine.

and I'm excited for the second half of the year.

and I love Nick! because he's perfect and way cooler than you.



and daniel fleury killed me in my dream....there were horses involved.



the end!

I've have quite the enjoyable weekend. Friday I had a lovely mall adventure with nicole. and then we went to applebess with nick. obviously I had an amazing time, because i was with my favorite people on the entire planet. Saturday I had DI and then did some random...yet productive stuff before tricia's party. which was clearly amazing! I had a good time singing with amy at the top of our lungs and conceiving....because we're MEN MEN MEN. (haha totally plural). Sunday I did...nothing....because i was grounded, but I was trying to be nice so I put away the remaining christmas decorations and thenspent some quality time with my family. we watched If Only. and AMAZING movie that you should watch.
THis morning I went to breakfast with nick, ali, sam, kyle, and courtney. Most definitly a good time. Then I actualyl studied *cough...while watching season 2 of boy meets world...cough* but I thought I was productive...enough. eh finals aren't that important to me this year for some reason. weirrrrd.


"it's a locker genie...and here's one for the wife."

ok so i forgot a few.....

( sorry )

Giant picture entry!

Mostly from becca's party, but a few are from new years.


( Read more... )

1) List ten things you want to say to people but know you never will.
2) Don't say who they are

1.I love you so much. You probably know that, but I don't think you realize how much I need you...because it's a lot.

2.You were never really there for me and I miss you. You hurt me too much, but I know I'm to blame for some of that. I just wish you cared sometimes. I know you love me...but you never show it and sometimes (...ok most of the time) I wish I didn't have to talk to you or even be around you.

3.You are the most amazing person I know. Honestly, I tell you EVERYTHING. I find myself telling you stuff I hadn't even admitted to myself yet. You're probaly the only one who will know who each one of these things is for, but that's the way I want it. You're my best friend and we'll always be friends.

4.I may complain about you guys a lot because you can all be wicked annoying, but you're like my family. Even though for a majority of the year i can't stand half of you in the end I honeslty love you guys. You've always beeng around...whether I wanted you to be there or not...you were. thanks.

5.We've had sooo many amazing times and I love you for it! you helped me so much this summer and I couldn't have asked for a better best friend. I know we've had some...rough spots. everyone does and I know we'll always be friends (we kinda have to be because I gave you a brithday card that said so) :-). but don't stop being you. no matter what anyone tells you.

6.Okay we've gotten sooo close this year and over the summer. again, you were always there for me this year whether you were doing AMAZINGLY thoughtful things or just watching movies with me. I love how we're honest with each other *quote from the notebook*"that's love, I tell you when you're being a pain in the ass and you tell me when I'm being an annoying son of a bitch. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings" anyway that came out...more mean than I wanted but you get the point...I love you.

7.I wish we were closer, you can be so cool and give the best advice sometimes. I just wish it was all the time.

8.If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't go home. I don't know if you're gonig to read this, but if you do you probably don't know this, but I honestly love you and look up to you a whole lot. I don't even think you realize this, but you always seem to make me feel better about stuff and you're always helping me.

9.We've kind of drifted and I don't like it. We've both made new friends and that's good, but I don't want us to stop being friends. We used to be sooo close. btw you are amazing at making me feel better and I hope i'm the same for you.

10.We've been friends for such a long time. When I look at how long our friendship's lasted it's kind of amazing. Obviously get in fights and make fun of each other a lot, but that's pretty much why I love you. haha we'll probably still be friends when we're 80 and still making "your face" jokes.

Vacation's been ok I guess. A lot of things haven't gone the way I planned, but I guess that was expected. Becky (friend from vermont) came down on friday and we saw rumor has it which was pretty good. On saturday we went bowling with steven and michael and jared. It kinda hurt my back (by kinda I mean a whole lot), but that was my own fault because I'm stupid, but I still managed to beat jared and becky. I have NO idea how that happened. lol. for new years my mom had her usual party and amy and nicole came over too and we straightened jared's hair and playe cranium. that was pretty fun, but i was tired and sore and...just...I don't know, not into it this year. I don't really know why considering that I hated 3/4 of this year and couldn't wait for it to be over. whatever, I probably just need to think about stuff. (like nicole and her revelation woo). Anyway, becky and I went to the mall sunday and then rented a beautiful mind (again) and The upside of anger and it turned out to be really good. We took her back up this morning and now I have a lot of homework...boo. but I think I'm just going to take a nap or maybe go for a walk. I really just want to think...I don't know what I'll think about actually, just ...something.



yeah...2006

This entry is pretty much about how awsome hyrax are. First look at some pictures of flocks of hyrax. Yes, they do infact exist, so liz and I aren't crazy.







Annnnd, here is a picture of a flying hyrax. That's right, they do exist, so liz and I are even less crazy.



If you do not believe these pictures, think they are doctored in any way, or do not share in the wonder of hyrax, this one will come to your house and eat you.



And finally there's this weird comic strip thing. I don't really know why anyone made it, it doesn't make any sense, and its not funny at all. It is, though, very informative, so read it and learn from it.



There you go, hyrax in a nutshell. Accept them and love them like liz and I have.

Yesterday was amazing.  My christmas present from my mom was a massage! It was soooooo nice! like whoa. it was rediculous. Then I went to the mall with nicole! haha "is she dead yet?" and we spent like a zillion dollars. it was such a good time. then I went to nick's(wicked late :-(  ) and we watched the village!
Great day!

And I just got back from phil's. we watched young frankenstein and played apples to apples. wooo! and I ate a ton (duh)


I was just looking through photobucket and discoveredddddd...


Sam and I being wicked emo! pshh you're jealous



and kathleen and I being wicked emo too!!
