evacuate the dancefloor(just the song that was playing...haha)

sorry it's been so long! i didn't really know what to write about on here besides band. i need a new thing :P and i found what i'll be writing about here today!

so, it's october 28th, right? yes. tomorrow's the last home football game of the season. saturday is the last competition. sunday is halloween. and then MONDAY starts NaNoWriMo! and i'm really excited! NaNo(for those of you who don't know) is National Novel Writing Month. it's in november, and we have 30 days to write a novel. i KNOW it'll be hard...but i'm willing to try, and that's what counts(: wish me luck(:




and now, i go to talk about band. :P
we had a competition at fuquay the other weekend. we did GREAT! we got reserved champs, which makes it that every competition we've gone to we've gotten a championship :D this show is just THAT amazing. except at cary band day, we're in class 3A. we're going up against fuqay, which we're not that worried about it, but Middle Creek. they've beaten us every competition, so i'm really nervous about it. but we'll see how that goes. at fuquay, i DID compete, even with my broken ankle. it hurt like CRAZY after. i mean, i was crying after it...:/ medicine was my best friend after that performance! haha. here are some pics (:


ending of the first movement. see, my face does NOT look happy like it's supposed to be...haha


ending of the 3rd movement. see, i couldn't get down on the ground, so i had to stand. and the way i had my hands on the ball(hahahahaha that's what she said... :P) it made me look like i'm sucking my thumb. hahaha. but i like this picture cause it's like they're all my minions or something....hahaha.

so, on october 25, my little nephew was born(: he is SO cute, OMG. hahaha.

SEEEEEE? he's like an angel!! 0:) hahahaha.

mkay, bye everyone(:

More Than A Feeling

More Than A Feeling by Boston. I've always loved Classic Rock, being "raised" by a family of old people. Anyways, this blog is going to be pointed towards my Biology teacher, Mrs. Brown, who really ticked me off today.
So, we're talking about DNA and RNA, right? and someone asks about mutations, and then after she explained it, she was like "that's why depressed people are depressed, there's a mutation in their DNA. it's just a chemical imbalance." and most people know that i'm depressed. and holy crap, that freaking irritated me SO much! their is NOTHING wrong with our DNA! their is NOTHING wrong with us besides the cause of our depression. oh my god, it was horrible! she was saying that we can fix our depression our selves, that we don't need any help, we don't need medication, we don't need to talk to anyone, etc. i almost started yelling at her. we supposedly choose our mood. so, when i want to be sad, i make myself sad? when i want to be happy, i'm happy? "sure, sad things happen, but YOU'RE the one that makes YOU sad! not the sad thing itself!" WTF MRS. BROWN.
i don't think teachers should be allowed to talk about that unless it's psychology or something. you never know when there's a suicidal or depressed kid in the class! or bi polar, which could just set them off! OH WAIT, he'll make himself set off, my bad! -.-

ugh. done for my rant for the day. otherwise, today was great until biology and the bus! i'm really excited for either this sunday or next weekend! you know why? i'm going swimming! why is this so exciting? because i'm gonna try to swim competitively again, and see if i still can. of course, it'll be hard with my ankle...but i can try, right? right. and the reason i'm trying again is because i might be doing the school swim team this year! the only reason i'm not sure about it is because i don't wanna be the ONE fat girl on the team. every swimmer i know that's on the team is skinny. and most teams i'm sure don't even allow fat girls on... :/ so we'll see how that goes. the best thing is that it ends in january, so i can still do winter guard (: but we'll see, we'll see. the worst part is that practice is at 5:15 am :/ but i can get over that, i'm sure. we'll see (:

all for now. bye(:

I don't ever want to believe, that when we die, we all leave

"Believe" by All American Rejects. YUM! haha. The reason I chose this song for the title is because in Creative Writing, we're talking about leaving a legacy. Usually when we die, we don't leave spiritually. Most people will keep those people in their hearts. And that's what I want to do, i want to stay in people's hearts forever. I just want to make a difference in people's lives, and I've already succeeded at that. I've saved three people's lives, and became one person's hero. and it just makes me feel amazing that i could do that. i swear, if i didn't have such a big passion for writing, i would go into Psychology. ♥

We're starting to read "The Last Lecture" by Randy Pousche. Just by watching an introduction video of Diane Saywer inspired me so much. I'm excited to write a memoir, but nervous at the same time. Mrs. Harrell says their gonna be happy stories... yeah right.

So, in creative writing, we just watched Freedom Writers, which is probably my
favorite movie now. It's basically about a teacher believing in her students, and the best part is that it's a true story! I love that movie. I highly recommend it.

I absolutely love my creative writing class; it's full of a diverse group of freshman through seniors, and i love them all. It just breaks my heart to see that we've all dealt with a lot of the same things, and we all write about it. Isn't is sad that in a lot of the short stories we wrote, someone was depressed, harming themselves, or ended up killing themselves? YES! there was one that a kid, Phillip, wrote about an 8th grader getting bullied so much that he went to Niagara Falls and killed himself. A reporter had some how heard about that over facebook, and I honestly almost cried hearing it. It just kills me that people kill themselves and such. It's horrible.

That's four paragraphs about Creative Writing...hmm...haha. Here's some updates on my life outside of school :P
So, I'm probably out of the rest of the marching band season as I broke my ankle :/ SAD FACE! I'm in a boot for at least a month, which makes it impossible to do guard. Friday's game was so interesting because I couldn't march the half time show. here's a picture... haha

yeaaah... haha. it was such an interesting game. and cold!
here's an actual picture of me during our first competition:

that's during the third movement, which is Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap♥

last but not least, this is a picture of me, my boyfriend, my best friend, her boyfriend, and our friend. (:

L-R: Thomas, Me, Devan, Josia, Ian. yayy :D

once my mom wakes up from her nap, I'm probably gonna play the piano. i miss my piano. thanks for reading(: ♥

Don't be afraid to let them show your true colors; true colors are beautiful like a rainbow

Once again, a GLEE song♥ Rachel sings this one, of course(: (True Colors)

That line, don't be afraid to let them show your true colors; true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow, has been speaking to me lately. It's saying that you need to be yourself. Be true. Don't hold back. Don't worry too much about others' feelings. Of course, not many people are gonna do that, now are they? haha. But I love that song.

This has pretty much been a horrible week, until today. Basically just family issues, and then my ankle, but I think(and hope) they're ending for now. Today was just a great day for the most part. My english teacher was absent, and the only bad thing about that was that the photography club meeting was canceled. sad face:/ but child development was fun, we're designing a day care(: it's a lot of fun, too :D then lunch was just a lot of fun with my best friend and my boyfriend and everything. in creative writing, i pretty much wasted the whole time talking with some friends but it was fun. then in biology we just talked the whole time. no homework, no band, and no job interview for a while...ugh. but then i went driving and went to walmart, and the only adult costumes for women they had was hookers. i was like REALLY?! so if the guard's going trick or treating together, i don't know what i'm gonna do. haha.

saturday we have a mini camp and we're learning the 4th movement. i'm NOT excited about that. but then thomas(boyfriend), devan(best friend), and her josia(her boyfriend) are going on a double date after practice. :D we're probably gonna sneak into see My Soul To Take since it's rated R. i've noticed like every scary movie is rated R... haha. hope they don't suck. apparently the Last Exorcist sucked, and I wanted to see that movie. i'll just get it when it's at red box :P haha

hmm.... i think that's all for now, talk to you next time (:

All that work and what did it get me?

Ah, GLEE♥ Kurt probably is my favorite character, next to Rachel, of course.
But anyways, "that work" that I'm talking about is color guard/marching band. and what it got me(or the entire regiment) was grand champion! we've now gotten grand champion at Northern Nash two years(or competitions) in a row(: yay, GHR! We have mini camp this week where we're learning the fourth movement drill. the fourth movement is Disney's Millennium, edited with some wheels of the bus of course. i'm excited though, as I made rifle(: but barely. i almost quit tryouts because I didn't think i could get it. i need to really practice it. and i will. (:

i'm being forced by Savannah to wear a dress tomorrow. yay? haha. i mean it's a cute dress, yes, but i don't wear dresses...especially to school. haha. i've changed so much sophomore year...guess that's a good thing?

tomorrow's monday..yay? this is gonna be an interesting week. i'll probably have to stay after school because friday night my brother got in a car accident and totaled the truck. so now we just have my dad's car, so yeaah. (he's okayish for the most part) so monday i have practice. tuesday i have practice. wednesday i have practice. thursday i have a job interview? and friday i have a game. saturday is mini camp. ew. band infested week... haha

remember: YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL IN EVERY SINGLE WAY. (:

alright, all for tonight. (:
