everything was going great until tonight.
My mom came home at like 11:15...
Apparently I was supposed to clean the entire house.. spotless.
I would like to know how "do your laundry and clean your room" turned into the entire house is to be spotless.
the consequences for only cleaning my room, doing only one load of laundry, taking a nap, cleaning the kitchen twice, doing my homework, and dusting the living room:
>>Possibly kicked out. >>car possibly gone. >>grounded for a week.. can't even see Blake. >>Have to pay for all of my Marlins shit. >>Have to pay for my car insurance, new exaust system, and oil change (which I would have done anyway). >>Have to pay for my phone.
I guess I'm going to stay up most of the night and clean so that she doesn't have to do it tomorrow.. and try to make things better although it's too late.

So it's been a while...
Signed up for Marlins yesterday. Talked to Patrick and Alex, then hung out with Blake. I guess they won their meet today.
Overall, everything has been great. A few problems here and there, but I'm truely happy for once. Blake and I are doing well and I can finally say I love him and really mean it. My birthday present was amazing. My mom took me to the casino for my birthday. It was tons of fun. I won 200 dollars. I didn't ever get around to playing poker though. Swimming ended okay.. I could have done better, but I still have Marlins. Now I just have to pray for a national cut. I opened a letter from Wayne State today that said I'm recieveing a 6,000 dollar scholarship based on academics. I figure that plus my MEAP money and whatever I recieve for swimming should cover most of my schooling for the first year. I still have to apply for some more scholarships though. I had surgery on my foot last Tuesday. It sucked that I had to be on crutches for my birthday, but I still had fun. The banquet being on my birthday wasn't the worst thing. I just want to thank everyone for my cake and card.. and for singing me Happy Birthday! Anyway, other than the fact that I have senioritis... everything's been great. I do miss hanging out with some of my friends that I haven't seen in a while, though.
Oh yea.. I almost forgot. My mom won some big prize over 500 dollars. She doesn't know what it is yet, but it's either a Ford Explorer, a 27'' flat screen tv, 24,000 dollars, or a 4 day 3 all inclusive trip to Florida. I just thought that was pretty sweet and decided to share it with you although you probably don't care.

"After high school what will you be doing?"
I'll be traveling around for a year. --Alek Haas
Unfortunatly we all make mistakes. Some are just more ignorant than others.
The funeral and lay out were terrible. I've never seen so many people in so much pain in my life. A mother should never have to bury her child. I never thought I'd see a friend go so soon. At least not from drugs. I can't even write anymore about this.

Blake asked me out. I <3 him. He brought me flowers to my swim meet. It was the cutest thing ever. Anyway... myspace is down because it hates me.. therefore i can't feed my addiction.
so i'll post a song cause I have nothing better to do:
How does it feel to know you're everything I need The butterflies in my stomach They could bring me to my knees How does it feel to know you're everything I want I've got a hard time saying this So I'll sing it in a song
Oh I adore the way you carry yourself With the grace of a thousand angels overhead I love the way the galaxy starts to melt When we become one When we become one When we become one When we become one
How does it feel How does it feel when we get locked into a stare? Please don't come looking for me When I get lost in the mess of your hair How do you feel when everything you've known Gets thrown aside Never fear, my dear, 'cause we have nothing left to hide
Oh I adore the way you carry yourself With the grace of a thousand angels overhead I love the way the galaxy starts to melt
Hold on to me girl If you feel your grip getting loose Just know that I'm right next to you Hold on to me girl If you feel your grip getting loose Just know that I won't let you down
Well, I'm ready Well, I'm ready I am ready To run away with you Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready? To run away with me
Pack your things we can leave today Pack your things we can leave today Say our goodbyes and get on the train Say goodbye Just you and I in the sweet unknown We can just call each other our home
If I had to choose a way to die It'd be with you In a goosebump infested embrace With my overanxious hands cupping your face In a goosebump infested embrace With my overanxious hands cupping your cherub face
How does it feel?

Chiodos- One day women will all become monsters |
] |
So I can't remember the last time that I cried before today. I hate crying in general, but I especially hate crying in front of other people. There's just something about it that makes me feel weak or inferior, although I know it is good to cry sometimes. I tend to cry over all the stupid shit though-- someone could be chewing my arm off and I wouldn't cry. However, My dumb ass cries over being yelled at. I suppose there's more to it than that, but it's still pretty pathetic. I am pretty pathetic. It doesnt bother me so much that the coaches hate me and are pushing me to quit swimming, but it does bother me that I'm going to lose relationships with people that I was close with. I understand that they are treating me like this because they care, but I need to be let down easier or I have a meltdown. Sort of like today. Actually, I should rephrase all of this.. Dave was very considerate and explained everything to that he doesn't want me to finish my last season unsatisfied, and that he wants me to reach my full potential. Bob, on the other hand, wants me to quit. He doesn't believe I'm committed enough. If only he knew how much I want this, and how much I want to finish the season. I don't just want to finish the season I want to come out on top... well just under Marie. I've dreamed of a making a state cut, getting a record, and becoming captain since my freshman year. I understand that it would be stupid to quit now, even if I don't achieve any of those things. Sometimes I wonder what goes on in that man's head. Even if Bob had said things nicer, I would have been hurt. I've always considered myself closer with Bob.. that's just how it goes. Apparently not anymore. This swim season is now for me, and only me. Not my parents. Not my team mates. And especially not my coaches. I know those statements may sound selfish, but I can't be focused on everyone else right now. Not after today. I need to train harder than I ever have before. Everytime I feel pain I will just think of how I was pushed to quit, but I stayed.
So that's the swimming part of the crying. Of course, there is more. There is always more. I have such a hard time trusting anyone anymore. I feel like I have very very few friends anymore. Several acquaintances, but only a handful of friends. Boys are just really effing confusing. I don't even feel like getting into that right now. I really need to take my ACTs over again. etc. etc. My stress is finally catching up to me.
Oh well... I guess I just need to be more like a tree... an apple tree.
For those of you who actually read all of that. I'm proud of you. I would also like to apologize for the length, randomness, and the fact that this is my only update in like a month.

( pictures from tonight )
Tonight was actually fun if you overlook the awkwardness between Patrick and me. That was hell, but Brooke and I did get hit on by some random guys in a black truck. Fort Fraser was fun, as well as going to the other B-Dubs to visit people.

Wow, I'm confused.
and pretty sure my mom hates me. I'm 95% sure she's bipolar.
And... I'm relly bored so song lyrics... they mae my happy... sometimes... they also make me sad sometimes... woo:
all of the years that waste away this is the life that i embrace this is the world that i create falling into the great decay give in give in give up all these verses share a theme (of the great decay) we dont amount to anything
And we wait above a road. We're turning to go home. And the silence from the side of the car, Tells me everything and how we are. Cause there's no more trying to make this so right. There's no more trying tonight.
And you know it's not so easy when you're all alone, And I wonder if, I'm alone in your head.
I know something is wrong, I just don't know what to do. You say it's only me, and, that I'm so perfect for you. I don't want to try no more, I don't want to make this right. I just want you to be true to me one time.
And you know it's not so easy when you're all alone, And I wonder if I'm alone in your head.
Twelve days gone by, since I have saw you last, I'll give this one more try, I'll give it all my best, and, I'll ask What could you be doing that is so much fun? Without me by your side, Without me by your side. And, I will take a step back, and, I'll let you ahead, And, I will take a step away, and, see if you come back, Because there's no more trying to make this so right, Theres no more trying, Theres no more trying tonight.
We'll never be the same, We will never be the same, We will never be the same, We will never be the same, Until you're done.
hmm.. I have to send that one to Brooke.

Maria Johnston Rocks My Socks!!!!
So today I was sitting in Chemistry and Dave was lecturing.... he was talking about bonds or something, but I wasn't really listening as usual. All of the sudden I hear "Barry Bonds" and my head shoots up and I start laughing and everyone just stared at me...
if they only knew.....
p.s. (that's what the alphabet would look like if Q and R were missing) Maria is going to have my babies. Cause we're cool.

Taking Back Sunday- Your Own Disaster |
] |
This weekend rocked!
Umm... Thursday night at like 11:30 my dad was like "I don't see a reason for you to go to one block tomorrow." So I got to sleep in like and extra hour and a half. Drove down and visited my Dad's old friend in Cleavland. Then I got to the pool at like 6 and didn't have to count for Marie until like 9:30. Anyways, Saturday morning I got to sleep in longer than everyone again. :) Got there... gave and recieved back massages... then warmed up for like 150 yards. Somehow, I pulled a 57.4 out of my ass on the relay. Then we all showered and went back to the motel. **What ever happened to the team showers?** All of us went to the mall... Brooke, Kelsey, Justin, Patrick, and Matt drove with me... we put the bed down. Patrick and Matt did a chinese firedrill. It was fun. Then the parents went out for dinner and we had the motel to ourselves. Really didn't have much to do though. Hot potato with the phone was fun though.. except it didn't last long. Played tag and raced for a bit, but got yelled at. Justin almost ran into someone. Um... layed/sat around until the parents got home. Then we kicked my dad into Maria's room and all watched a movie in my room. Uh.. Today... woke up. Warmed up like 200 yards. Did one start. (I don't know why I'm telling you all of this because I'm sure you don't care). Swam the 200 free relay. Again, I pulled my swim out of my ass. I guess I went a 25.59. That's all I had to swim cause I'm cool like that. Stayed to watch Marie's 200 and Maria's 100 breast. Then went to Applebee's and came home. I'm fat and ate a whole samppler platter by myself.
**I think Alex shoved my camera down his pants and took a picture at the meet today.**
**I wish I would have done what Maria told me.**
**Also should have got that cool awesome picture.**
I think Maria and I are hanging out this weekend.

Dashboard Confessional- Living in your Letters |

I haven't updated in a while so this may be long.
Exams were interesting..... I actually think I did better on my math exam than I did on my chem exam. Enh.. whatever.... I wasn't really thinking about exams at that point. My spanish, art, band, and econ exams were easy. I once again wasn't thinking about exams though.
Thursday: yea surgery.... it went well... I guess it was a lot worse than they thought it was going to be though. On a scale of 1-4 they said I was a 5.... sad considering I feel fine now, and did that night. Mike came over to keep me company. It was nice to know at least one person cared.
Friday: I slept a lot. Then went out with a bunch of people. They decided they wanted to leave the house we were at and get into a fight. I decided that I wanted to stay at the house since I was supposed to hang out with Marc anyways. Now everyone is mad at me. So I think I owe them all an apology. I'm sorry that I didn't go to the fight with you. I didn't feel like having a run in with the cops especially in the condition I was in. I also expected you to come back... I'm sorry.
Today: well this is a shitty day. Normally, I wouldn'tmind the snow, but since I'm restricted to NO physical activity for 2 freaking weeks it sucks... This means no sledding, snowboarding, or anythign fun.... this really sucks!
Haven't been able to eat much. It sucks considering I usually eat 239875982 times a day. I can't wait until I can eat normal foods again. I'm going out to dinner right away. Anyone want to come?
On another note, I thought my something was seriously wrong with my dog today. Something along the lines of a broken back or leg. Not sure what happened to him, but he's fine now. Damn faker.
Alright, boys.... what is up with me and boys? So I met a boy last weekend. I like him. The things he says make me happy. He's also a lot different than the other boys I meet. Just hoping this turns out better than the rest.
hah... I sound like a 10 year old girl with a crush... great.
So I'll hit the pavement It's gotta be better than waiting And pushing you.. far away cause I'm scared. So I'll take my chances and head on my way up there Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you're ten.
