Drawing makes me happy.

I love art. So much. I feel so happy doing it, and the sense of accomplishment after completing something neato is such a good feeling. I really hope I can go to a good art school when I'm done with HS...that's my dream...no more math for me, baby. I love being passionate about things.....absense of passion in any life would suck.

This is my latest self portrait in charcoal.

dun dun dunnnnn!!!!

I haven't written in FOREVER because well....I didnt feel like it. Syd is getting pissed, so I best do so.

Um..................My life is so freakin lame, I have nothing to write about. UGH! It seems like E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E that I know is having relationship problems. I'm so glad I decided not to date in high school it has saved me so much dumbness and wasted time....it's REALLY hard sometimes though, geeze. Just seeing things not working out for all these people, it's like, what's the point? honestly people, if you can give me one good reason, why it's purposeful to date in highschool, I'll take it. You can't say it makes you feel good, because when you break up, there's pain that cancels it out. I dunno, it's all so silly to me.

School sucks so much, I'm so ready to be done with this year, it's SO POINTLESS! I'm going to a freakin art school, they don't care what my grade point average, or my SAT scores are...NO! If I can draw, I'm set. Geeze people....COME ON!

So what have I been doing, you ask? Let's take a journey into the life of Alice Stoner. Um.....last week, I dont even remember, school and stuff, um Friday I went to mailto:A@O show, it was lame, no offense guys, but seriously, there were not a lot of people there, but then we went to Chipotle and that made up for it. Apparently, with me, it's like playing mousetrap all year long. Right guys? I dont think I did anything on Saturday, Sunday, I had to sing at church, and had CREW n stuff, then we went bowling, and dressed up. I love Linda Ronstadt, yes? It was really fun, I'm not the best bowler ever, I got a 103 the first time and then a 63....woops, hey i really like those 3's...oooh yeah, that's smooth. (ok, so after seeing this in my blog, the 3's aren't so special, but they look neato in the font that I'm writing them in, in this part...k i'm pissed)

Then..school again, and sitting on babies and what not. Today I had school, then I came home and my parents are like..um apparently both of us are pmsing or something....it seemed like it, but they were really moody, so C and I left and went to this neato musical review with some peopel from her work. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And we sang disney songs on teh way home, like always. Tomorrow I'm going to a car auction, just to check things out, you know how it is, and then um.... mailto:um...A@O is playing after the DU game, so I'm dunna go to that. woot woot? Sunday I have to sing..again!! GAHHHHH!!! I dont think I ever stop singing, literally.

HOLY CRAP! I'm giving Eli dreadlocks, I'm so excited, I've always wanted them, but I'm too scared, but..Peru, ok, you can give em to me then, yes? EzE, don't let me down on this one, You got me worked up, you gotta follow through. It's gonna take forever, but it will be really worth it.

Um yeah, here's a quote, whatsit from? "The seaweed is always greener in somebody else's lake"

Well EzE obviously has something to prove, and I would write an entry, and just put the quote at the end, but I dont have time now, so this is a movie quote, just for you, Eli.

"According to the map we've only gone about four inches. You know I don't think we have enough gas money. " Hopefully you'll get to it before anyone else can figure it out.

Frankenstein is cool

Here's neato poem (or exerpt, rather) that Sir Philip sent to me like, a year ago, and I had written in calligraphy for my art class. I just found it, and remember how frickin awesome it is. It's from Frankenstein, the book.......can you believe it?

"She shone like a shrine-dedicated lamp in our peaceful home. Her sympahthy was ours; her soft voice, the sweet glance of her celestial eyes were ever there to bless and animate me. She was hte living spirit of love to soften and attract; I might have become sullen in my study rough through the ardour of my nature, but she ws there to subdue me to a semblence of her own gentleness"

Phil got the last quote, HA! It was Aladdin, score! Here's this'n "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."

Neato Gang

Wow, I feel like I havent written in a while.....I dont think I have. Anyways, yeah.....last week was sucky because the retreat was this past weekend and the week before retreats is always lame.....you just want it to be over with. So yeah, the retreat was a lot of fun, allow me to elaborate.

Ok so after "school" on friday, I'm at the church with all my gangster friends, and we are packing up stuff into the trailor and stuff, Sinney comes, looking as cute and trendy as ever, and life is neato. On the ride up there, I was stuck with mostly Sophomore boys, a few liberal girls, and Sinney bear. We listened to music, good music, that's for sure. Phantom, then Aladdin, then Grease, heck yes! I didn't do much on the way up, cept for sing, and talk to Sinney and Kevin (dubbed, taco) <------that kid is so funny I realized....holy schnikeys. Anyways, we ate at Taco Bell, and um......yeah that night, we took our stuff to our rooms. All of the girls were in one big room with a bunch of bunk beds, the lodges were pretty nice. We had a bathroom with a few showers and stalls for well, y'know. Then I think we went to the "gathering" place and A@O played stuff, and the speaker, Shelly, talked. Then I think we had family time and went to bed??I don't really remember.

Saturday, we got up and I got ready, but Sinney and Courtney took a long time, because they said we should just go to breakfast late so we dont have to wait in line for food and stuff, well we get there late, and it turns out that you sit at tables, and they serve you, so there werent enough empty chairs for us all to sit together, so Sinney and I sat with these other girls, and I dunno where everyone else went. Then, I think we prolly went to the gathering place and sang stuff and listened to stuff, and then had lunch?? We had free time that whole afternoon, they had a bunch of athletic tournaments and stuff.....which I didnt do, of course. But I did play on some of the inflatable stuff. I boxed with huge gloves, with Ryan. I, hands down, beat Sinney on the gladiator thing, undefeated, I beat Sinney on the obstacle course. Then we did the bungee run thing, and she beat me once, and I beat her once. andddddddd.......I did the bungee run with RJ, and he won both times, maybe if Phil hadn't been holding onto my cord so I couldn't run, my life would be better right now.

Ok so we all just hung out for a while, Sinney and I went to the boys' little house thing that was stocked with food and what not, they get all these special privileges because they are the band, whatever, fools. We ran out of things to do, so we just walked around and what not. There was a 60 person hot tub we coulda gotten into, but I didnt feel like it...it was too cold to have to run back to the cabins anyways. Then...................I think we did a gathering thing again, or maybe dinner first, I dont remember which. But yeah, we had a gathering, and then quiet time by ourselves, family time. I just walked down to the basketball court during family time and looked at the mountains all around me, and the stars. The sun was almost behind the mountains, it was so beautiful, I loved it. During our small group/family time, alot of the girls cried, why? different reasons, yay estrogen and what not! There was lots of crying and hugging, our eyes were poofy to say the least. After that, A@O did a show, only like, 30 people showed up, it was lame, but I totally rocked out like none other with my good friends. I had fun. After that, we hung out with the boys for a while, they told me I looked high/tired (thanks, jerks!) soo Sinney and I headed for the cabin.

On the way back, we stopped at the boys' little house thing, on the walk down, singing Moulin Rouge, what else? So yeah, Sinney wanted to get the c.d. from eli so she could learn the love song, so eli wouldn't have to sing it with me anymore (go be in love or something, guys) and then we walked back to our cabin....we went to bed, only I didnt get to sleep til kinda late, but that's ok, right guys?!?!

Sunday morning, we got up and went to gathering, they gave us a snack to tide us over til brunch, and then after gathering, we had brunch. I tried to smuggle some of the chicken enchilada stuf for ryan, but they wouldn't let me, jerks! anyways, after that, we went back to our cabins and got stuff packed up and immaculately clean. (those people are neat nazis) and then we got ready to go.

We loaded up and rode back, I tried to sleep for part of the way, but couldn't..........so we jus listened to music, and I tried to sing, but it didn't work too well because I had lost my voice. Which was kinda neato, because I dont think I've ever gotten close to fully losing it...and I was so close.....I sounded like a boy going through puberty. So yeah, we got back and unloaded and found out that Sinney's bags got left up there, so tried to call around and locate them, no luck yet. Sorry Sinney bear. So we took her home, and then I went home for a bit. Then I went to a superbowl party at Kelly's, and then I came home and went to bad after a while.

Today I got up and babysat, and went to the sister's for lunch, and came home, did a bit of school, slept for a bit, talked to my gangster friends, and watched a bit of tv while I knitted (because I'm so cool like that).........now I'm here. This is a lame post because I really dont have anything to talk about, so I just tell you guys meaningless things about my life. Neato Gang!

Ez E got the last quote (good work, dad) it was Airplane. So here's another one for the ladies....(or anyone, Ijust like saying that) "Who disturbs my slumber" this should be a really easy one.

Thanks for stopping by, San Diego.

Tonsils on fire!

K...soo yeah. Yesterday, kinda sucked, I had an insanely sore throat all day, and a big headache...it sucked. I felt like my tonsils were on fire, and my head was going to explode....but I went to bed and it was all better..not really, but my headache was gone.

So today, I had tutoring, that went pretty well, I guess. I came home, and pretended to be reading/doing school whenever my mom entered the room which I was occupying, and in between those hellish visits, I slept. I was tired, I didn't feel good, GET OFF MY BACK! Soo yeah, I didn't do a whole lot...then at 5 I went with my papa to an open house thing at Pickens Tech. That place is pretty ghetto, I'm pretty sure there were only like 4 other white people there....but I might take a cosmotology class, or just haircutting/styling there this next year. Then by the time I graduate I'll have a cosmotology lisence, and can get a job doing that while I go to college...plus it's pretty much free, sooo SCORE! So we'll see if I do that, or just go to regular ol' CCA next year, still haven't decided.

I'm excited for the weekend, the retreat! YAY! It'll be great fun. I'm excited to hang with Sinney bear all weekend. I found out that my dad is driving up there..and will be staying. I'm not especially excited about it, but the rest of the world is happy. At least people like him, I guess. It'll just be weird....and since I'm such a rebel on church retreats, and always sex it up...I cant, b/c my dad will be there, DANG IT! Anyways, that's all I've been up to, pretty much. Tomorrow is Wednesday! and then Thursday! which is the day before Friday!! Neato gang!

Sinney got the last quote, sorry E. I dont think Sinney will get this one, so here ya go. "You ever seen a grown man naked? "...well??? Go on.
