You are my Sweetest Downfall....

I feel like....sleeping. For a long time. Plus I think I'm gettig a cold, I have the start of a sore throat and a stuffy nose. Strep Throat is going around at school. Oh jou.

I'm still lockerless, maybe I'll finally get a locker assignment this Friday during homeroom. We'll seee....as far I as I know we're just voting for homecoming king/queen. I don't even know when homecoming is. Hopefully it's not next week I'll feel robbed of a full homecoming because it's only 4 days instead of 5. Blah.

I'm a loser, I don't have a partner for my government project. Like we're supposed to. It's just easier for me to do projects on my own, that way I don't have to rely on anyway else and worry about them screwing it up.

Oh and I just got my hair cut like a few weeks ago right? It's already noticably grown haha. My hair is crazy like that. It grows supppperrr fast.

I really don't have much else to say...besides school isn't as fun as it used to be, even though we did get to watch Star Wars in English the past 2 days. Senior year so far = blah.

Family of Me.

So, I'm still lockerless, I've abandoned the book bag at home just to avoid getting sent to the office. If I don't ever get a locker I'm screwed especially come winter time.

Anyways, I think I'm kind of losing everyone. I don't seem to have anything in common with anyone anymore. I truely am becoming that hermit type person who just keeps to their self. And that in it's self is scary. One advantage to hermitnisim (ha I've come up with a name for it...scary) is that after one week of school I have straight A+'s, I've had homework assignments and quizzes so don't say I don't have any grades yet.

I thought about going to the Football game tonight. Decided not too, mostly because I realized I'd have no one to go with. Going to something like that alone is just weird and depressing. Plus it got rained out anyways. So oh well right?

The only date I have this weekend is a date with Math and English. Oh the excitement. I had more of a social life in middle school. Pathetic I know.

I Knew It!

So today was my first day of Senior year....it's supposed to be all grins and giggles right? Well...you obviously don't know me and the karma that follows me around.

First of all, the bus was wayyy late and the fire alarm thingy kept going off and it looked like I was making it do that because I was sitting in one of the seats with the emergency exit windows so I had to keep pressing down on the lever to make it stop buzzing. Gah. Luckily I avoided the rain while waiting for the bus so that's good.

I go to homeroom, and we have to change classrooms cause of Todor..blah. We get our lock assignments....good location....crappy ass locker, if you can even call it that. You know how most lockers have like a bottom to them, and a hook or whatever? Mine...doesn't. All I have is this door that opens up to dirty floor....no hooks and the handle for the top part is broken off so I can't even get that open. Gah. But a lot of people were given the wrong combos for their lockers....so the school had to call downtown and their sorting out the issue...maybe I'll get lucky and get a new locker all together?! *fingers crossed!*

1st Period Crowley's class aka Gov/Econ....not so bad except for I sit by some really annoying people. Damn alphabetical order! Atleast Kelly is in there....so maybe she'll help keep me sane and we can keep our book in the classroom.

2nd Period Advanced Foods, this class should be fun, I actually know some people in there and my kitchen group is pretty cool. Plus we get to pick our own recipes and make them...score. I have no complaints about this class.

3rd Period, Senior English. Gah. The teacher seems nice enough, but I have a feeling there is going to be a lot of homework involved unlike the previous two english teacher's I've had at Snider. We already have vocab words we have to learn for Wednesday and we have to read like 2o pages of stuff and have a quiz over it tommorrow. Plus we already did a journal thingy today which we had to turn in for points. Oh man....why me?

I have B lunch for the first time in my life. Which is ok...becuase Erin, Kieara, Emily, Clara, Amy, and a bunch of other people have it to. But lunch is chaos...we got a new computer system and it's all touch screen and yeah. But lunch has gone from a half hour to 40 minutes. I just have to haul ass to get down there so I won't have to wait in line forever.

4th period Pre Calc....teacher is nice....and well your typical quirky math teacher. All of my math teachers have been pretty quirky besides Mrs. Wells and I can't think of her name right now but I had her for geometry.....well I guess all the quirky ones were guys haha. Anyways, we're doing this worksheet so he can see how much we know...blah blah. So yeah, it should be ok. We're going to spend the first 18 weeks pretty much reviewing before we even get into pre-calc.

I made it out to the parking lot fairly fast and it was pouring out. We get out to Erin's car to find out that she had locked her keys in the car. So we run back to the school and I'm pretty soaked along with notebooks/handouts/and my lit book. Gah. But we got to talk to Tristan a bit so that was fun.

I came home and blow dried my papers, notbook, and text book....they're all kinda wavy....uh I hope I don't get charged for a damaged book and hope that it'll kinda unwave a bit. I also blow dried my shoes....and guess what!? It's supposed to rain every day this week but Wednesday. I think I'm going to get a rain poncho lmao.

Well I hope the rest of my year goes better than this. Today was just craziness. My head hurts gah.....I need to go read about Anglo Saxons or whatever. So I'm out kidz.

A is for Action

So...I just got back from my Sr. Yearbook photo thingy....I guess it went Ok and I and I was having a fairly good hair day so that's all just peachy.

I'm tired.....I can't even wrap my head around going back to school in like 3 days.

I got 5 t-shirts and 2 flashlights in the mail today. I got 3 adult mediums, and 2 adult larges. So yeah I'm swimming in all of them haha. Maybe they'll shrink even though on the tag they say pre-shrunk cotten. Free swag from movies though is always cool and hey...all the t-shirts are the same...so I'm keeping one of the mediums for myself...if you want one...just lemme know.

I really don't have much else to say.

Check My Pressure, Patch Me Right Up....

So, today my feelings towards school are well part of me is excited to go back and just see everyone again, and the other part is going stayyy away from that place haha. I have a gut feeling that something is going to go wrong the first day, mainly concerning the whole backpack/locker issue. But I keep reading blogs about people's first days and those are making me look forward to go back. Mainly so I can start eating cafeteria food again...I miss it! I'm tired of pasta! I swear that's all we've been eating at my house for like 2 weeks. Gah! Everything we eat seems to involve pasta in some way. Raviolli last night, Spagehtti the night before, Chicken Carbenera on Sunday, Chicken Catchitorie(sp?), on Saturday. I'm pasta/italin dished out.

I want some Chinese Food! Take me out to the Mandrin and I'll be your bestest friend! You can can the lunch special for $5 and you get soup, an egg roll, a chicken wing thingy, and umm...a wonton I think it is, plusss an entree an I really want some Lo mein. I haven't had it in what seems like forever, not to mention some good Hot n' Sour Soup. Yum. I also want an extreme grand slam breakfast from Denny's but we don't have an Denny's anymore....but yet the commercials are constantly played gahh!

Anyways before I get wrapped up in my food cravings, I'm thinking about pre-ording NFG' s new album because with shipping costs I can get an autographed copy, along with a t-shirt all for 20 bucks. But it's a white shirt and that makes me leary. My mom....is horrible with white clothes....they don't stay white long....they always end up looking dingy. So....I don't know. I think I'll get a new pair of jeans first. I'm currently down to 2 pairs that are actually wearable. The others have holes...big holes haha...and not in the knees. Let's just say don't put your hands in your backpockets a lot...they will eventually rip out. And the hole will eventually get bigger, especially if you try to duct tape it....the duct tape will tear it up even more. I do have a wedding scheduled, so if I get another before the pre-order time is up, I'll probably get it. Or better yet, an actual job haha.

Ok...well the momz should be home soon...so tis all for now kidz.

What Did You Expect From Me?

Oh man, the first day of school is a week away and my sleeping pattern is so screwed up. I actually went to bed around 11:30 last night, buttt...I didn't actually fall asleep till probably around 1ish. But I got up around 9 this morning, so I guess that's progress? ha.

I had a bad dream that I had a non-existant locker and I was running all over the school just trying to find it and it just wasn't there. I hate dreams involving school.

I don't want to go and deal with all those people again....can't I just skip it and become a hermit and never leave my room again? My room doesn't talk....it's not annoying, it doesn't judge me. It's just here....somewhere where I am pretty much all day....every day....and I don't want to leave it. I have everything I need here, except for you know food, a way to cook the food, and a bathroom. I'm sure I'll feel differently come say Sunday night...I'll be all...I can't wait to see so and so...blah. But right now I don't want to go.....I just want to be left alone. I've gotten used to entertaining myself...and not interacting with people.

It's funny really, I'm 17 years old, I have my drivers liscense and all of that....and I'd rather just sit at home....not really but that's all I seem to do. I guess I'm not your sterotypically american teenage girl. I don't go out every night/day, and I don't text 24/7. Oh well I guess.

I Know, I Know, But.....

So my hair sucks pretty majorly right now. I'm not even kidding. I know I said I wouldn't harp on this anymore but it's seriously bad... I had hope earlier this week too...it looked pretty good. I have pictures to prove it!

See....it was looking good and then after my 3 days that it looked that good I washed it...and now one side is all blah and the other is all flipped out and blah...and my bangs some how have gotten flipped out too....I just pulled them back today when we were on a bike ride....but gah! I wish my hair looked like that picture everyday and that's without any hair product or a straightener. But honestly hair days like these just make me want to scream. Oh shut up...we're all vain to some degree. I have to get my Senior Picture for the year book taken this week....Gah! It's Thursday....so I NEED a good hair day on Thursday. Maybe I can just send in that pic? haha...I like that one.

And I think I like Today, I think It's Good, It's Something I can't get my head around....

So let's recap on the things Sarah has won in the past two weeks shall we?
-Two Warped Tour Tickets which unfortunately I didn't get to use.
-A DVD from the band, The Graduate about the making of their latest album which I have yet to watch but I'm going to, I swear.
-And today I got in the mail a signed poster from a band called Scenes From a Movie. I like the way Adam, whoever he is...lol, signed his name. So just for that I'm going to put it up on my wall later! :D

Oh and new NFG song today...well not an original but they posted their cover of "Iris" on their myspace feat. Will from Cartel. It's pretty good. It makes me even more excited for FTSTYS2.

Oh and....I just got an email saying I'm getting more free stuff from my movie crew you know that new movie with Nicole Kidman in it. So that's awesome as well. Yeah I have to do like the motherload of all dishes but every good thing that's happened today....has just canceled out all the blahness of dishes.

We Want the Airwaves Back!

So I was watching the news and saw loads of kids I know. Crazy but cool.

Anyways here's a list of albums/artist that are currently recording that I'm pretty excited about that are coming out in the future.

-From The Screen To Your Stereo 2 by New Found Glory, Sept. 18th
-Combinations by Eisley, Aug 14th
-Rise or Die Trying by Four Year Strong, Sept. 18th
-New Jack's Mannequin! Yesss!
-New Jimmy Eat World
-And will you not hate me forever if I said I was a tinsey bit looking forward to the new Angels and Airwaves album? Because yes we all know Tom is an ass now but .....We Don't Need to Whisper was a fairly decent album.

And my mind is drawing a major blank right now. But I guess that's ok.

Oh and if you come to my house the front is like uhhh naked! No seriously, we had this big ugly huge pine tree that like overtook the front of our house. Today it got cut down....so it's gone. So is the other dead tree that was in our front yard. So I guess now I'll have to stand outside and wait for people so they know it's my house? haha.

Ah! only 10 days left until school starts well not counting today anways. I'm actually starting to miss school lunches is that wierd? You know since I don' t actually have to make them and they usually consist of more than a sandwhich. Plus CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE FROSTING!!! Dude they better have that the first day haha.

I'm hungry so I'm going to go wait for the parents to get home from the bro's registration/the store.

You Save the Girl, You Save the World

So this kid continues to make me smile when I'm least expecting it. Which pretty much makes any day extremely better. It's probably almost better than seeing NFG live...I'll let you know when I actually get to see them to tell you which feeling is better. But for now...this feeling is just the best thing in the world.

Another oh so Happy and Positive Blog.....

So it's Tuesday....and since I'm sitting here at 10:30 in the morning blogging I bet you call all guess that I'm not at Warped. So yeah. Ah what can I say? Bad luck just follows me around. I should be down there in line right now...but nope I just woke up like 15 minutes ago so yeah.

I guess I'll just go and watch ER at 11, then Full House, and then The OC on Soapnet heh. Back to the same old where the most exciting thing that happens all day is like getting the mail because you never know what it may bring. I'm always getting sent stuff like t-shirts, stickers, ect.

What a way to end the summer? eh.....I'm not even going to say anymore about it.

I seriously fail at life.

So I think I'll always hate my hair.....no matter what I may do to it. It sucks even worse now that I got it cut. I'll always be hair illiterate.....or maybe I just have that low of self-esteem that I'll always find something wrong with my hair. Eh. Whatever it still sucks.

So so far no sign of Erin....I've pretty much exhausted all of my other options for finding a way to go to Warped on Tuesday. So chances are it probably won't happen. I guess I won't have to worry about dehydration then. Heh. And then maybe I can get a straightener and either make my hair even more shitateous orrr remotely better heh.

I went to registration today....my ID pic is actually kind of decent...well that was before I got my hair chopped off. Only 2 weeks left....it's kind of depressing....especially having to face my peers with this crappy ass hair ahhh I need to stop harping on that.

Oh something good did happen today I guess....I won another online contest, I got a DVD in the mail today, from a band called The Graduate, don't listen to them currently but I guess I'll have to watch the DVD they sent me and find out if I like them or not.

I just... I don't know. I guess I should just stop blogging right now.
