TGIF!

Hey there! Haven't written in a while, but today is Friday! It is so hot outside, almost 90 degrees, which is just not natural.
Some major things that happened this week:
1. I got a Facebook at the urging of Rose because then I can join the THG fan club. It's pretty cool, though if my parents find out I'll be dead.
2. Outdoor Ed. Waterboy is such a hard guy to read *stamps feet on ground*. In Outdoor Ed we were walking on this tightrope. If you fell off, you had to go back to the beginning, which is a pain in the butt for everyone. I almost fell like 20 times, and Linda was so mad at me, which I must say felt really good. But Waterboy, who is one of the loudest, most critical people I know, never yelled at me or raised his voice while he was doing that to everyone else. Rue says he settles down when I talk. I've come to two conclusions: a) that he hates my guts and that I'm so lowly he won't talk to me or b) that he likes me but is too scared to do anything about it, because what would his friends say? Horrible things, that's what, because I'm not exactly popular. At this one part I was basically hugging him and Jakob just sat in the backround giggling. In a weird twist, he has volunteered to go find out who Waterboy likes. And also to the mix, I'm pretty sure a couple of kids think Jakob and I are going out, which is bad (but most of them are retards anyhow so it doesn't matter). Waterboy has also been declared the new Peeta instead of Gale, for multiple reasons. He is more klutzy for sure than our previous choice. He was running down the hill and almost fell straight on his face! It was so funny. He treats me differently than other girls though. Doesn't try to flirt with me, just sits there and trades glances. Which is fine with me, since my flirting skills equal negative 1.
3) I've discovered GirlForce. It was a free book I got through the Vine program. It is a whole program that gives food, stress, and excercise suggestions based on your elemental type. It sounds like voodoo, but it is actually pretty cool. I'm Fire: passionate, gets jealous easily, clever, bossy, a leader, loyal, always there. It totally makes sense. Rue took it and is Air, which sounds bad but it really isn't. I tried the prescribed yoga routine and it's so invigorating. Rue and I are going to do the program together. It includes meditation, which got me thinking about religion. Because I have freedom of religion I'm going to utlize it and try all kinds of stuff. It's exciting.

Might go makeup shopping! At Sephora! Yay! Need to get colors for my type.

Miserable Maids and Men

The weather matches the mood of my grade: dark and forboding. The week has started out well enough; however, with almost everyone simply seeming miserable, it really puts a damper on my spirit.
Except after Creative Writing. I swear, I think I have ADD sometimes. I get all excited and jumpy after CW and won't stop talking. Connor the Brother and I got in an arguement about Team Gale vs. Team Peeta under the watchful eye of Alexa and-guess who?-Waterboy. He smiled as I came over and as I threatened Connor with death if he didn't switch to Team Peeta (I can be very persuasive) but later grew rather annoyed and got his friend to kick me out. Oh well. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Guess who is back? Linda Dusty. Mr. Squirrel obviously doesn't get my situation and sits Linda right next to Waterboy. During (Indoor) Ed she picked up his hand during out tie-yourselves-into-pretzels-and-untangle excercise. Oh my I thought I would kill him right there.

The Cake of Awkwardness

One of the reasons I haven't blogged in a while is because the posts weren't appearing. I wondered why, and figured out the verification email hadn't been sent back. My mom has my email account closed to everyone but approved guests, so I never got the email and thought it had something to do with the misfunction of my blog. If that is the case then I might start a new blog and direct you to it. I started a new account on a different system in case I ever have to, though I don't want to.
This week was short and sweet. Italy, as I said before, was great, except for the supreme letdown that the guys weren't that cute. Let me tell you, not having anyone to look at really forces you into a hole of despair (not really). Now I'm back to the world of gossip and drama (is that good or bad? It's entertaining, that's for sure). My creepy stalker is a stalker no more; he is now the boyfriend of darling Alexa in the 7th grade. Rose is single, and what happened to Rue is way too complicated to go into. The best news of all? Phil Bird likes me no longer (we hope)!! He likes Rose though. Ah the world of school politics...
We started outdoor education in PE, and guess who is in my class?
-my creepy stalker who isn't
- Jakob Au
- Linda Dusty
and the icing on top of the Cake of Awkwardnesss, Waterboy. I didn't even expect him to be there. He doesn't seem like the type to be in the class. So it was quite a shock. We did this "Flying Carpet" thing where six peoplr lift one person into the air and my creepy stalker dropped and shouted "Ooops Jakob, I dropped your girlfriend!" and I shouted, in reponse, just loud enough for everybody in the other group to hear "I'm not his girlfriend." You know, just in case Waterboy happened to be listening. Which he wasn't. He was too bust touching Clove. Not in a sexual way but holding onto her for dear life. Mamma mia! What am I going to do with that boy? As Clove and Rue would say, kick him in the butt!
Yesterday it was so nice, and today it's poopy. But I love spring though. Baby animals, rain, cute little chocolates. I'm pretty excited for tomorrow now. Outdoor Ed with the Cake of Awkwardness.

Back, But Not Really Better Part One

Testing testing

Ciao! She's Back!

Omg it has been a long day...but I'm back! Yes, I'm here in rainy U.S when Italy had such fine weather...really, every day was spectacular. No time to chat now: I have so much to do, such as unpack, write letters, try to get a hold of my friends in preparation for my long day of school tomorrow. I hope no one thinks I'm dead; there was that earthquake in L'Aquila (I was in Venice when it happened, and didn't even feel it; same with Florence when the aftershock hit. Funny to think that I was less than 200 miles away) and they might get the scare of their life tomorrow!

Yellow Shirt Galore

Oh my goodness tomorrow I'll be on a plane to one of the most beautiful countries on the planet that has some of the most romantic cities in the world...needless to say I'm excited about my impending trip to Italia (and the Italian boys-I hope maybe they'll get me off of German boys, one in particular...) but it really is stressful. I am not even packed yet, and have been procrastinating writing this dumbbutt essay about how I impact the community. My mother knows I haven't done any service work in years! *slams head into wall*

So this will be my last post for perhaps two and a half weeks:(

Today we had the talent show. For a gifted school we have a lack of talent. Clove Pumpkin is an awesome dancer but I cannot help resent her for the attention she gets- who wouldn't get attention wearing a sparkly orange Arabian person outfit and shaking their hips? All the boys liked it. Even dumb old Waterboy, who I keep cooking up horrendous deaths for. Today during the history tests we kept bumping elbows and after a while just kept them there. Frankly, this makes me hate him more, for teasing me so, but there comes a point where you cannot stop.

I'm going to gain so much weight. Today I noticed how fat I was getting and was like "Oh my..."

Yellow shirts were worn by two people in my Awkward Triangle: Waterboy, Phil Bird, and my Creepy Stalker. CS only wears black so the other two were wearing them...needless to say, I was hyper. During SH I was jumping off the walls.

I wonder if he'll think about me..omg I'm so obsessed. My brother is to. Waterboy is like his idol, no joke. Which is ironic in a way, since he has no clue about my crush...boys are oblivious. And nonresponsive sometimes.

Miss you!!!! Rose, I'll find you a boy, don't fret:)
