AKEGNAOIERCNASDIPOCANSDIFA

Okay, GOSH, I hate this. Okay, so my alert didn't pop up last week, and it wasn't until Sunday that I realized it. But, I had put off my homework until then... GAH, *bangs heads against wall*
Then, this week pops up and it's like four tests packed into two days, and now my grade is like majorly low GAH GAH GAH....
So, now I'm finding some time to post, and beg for forgiveness *goes on my knees* I'M SO SORRY...
I was going to vent here, but I guess my anger kinda went away because of how tired I am now.
There's not much to say; I don't really want to bring up my latest drama because it'll just get me mad all over again.
So, I'll just leave it at this, I really want to add a few more pages (tabs?) on this blog, and as soon as I figure out how to do that, I'll be adding them. I know no one really checks out this blog, but whatevs. See y'all later~!

Back...

Hi! I'm back. Didja miss me? Of course not. You're mad at me, si? Sorry! But I have a very good reason. Kind of. Okay. So as you all may know, the iPhone 4S came out last Friday. Well yayerz for me I actually got it! My mom pre-ordered it and it came in the afternoon while I was at school. Then I took a picture of it which I attached to the bottom of the post.
Aaah it was hectic. That night I tried to sync it and activate it. There were like a million problems that came up when I tried. Like, first I had to set up my old computer which had my iTunes on it. Then, I found out that my mouse didn't work and my keyboard died. So I had to scour the room for a USB mouse. Then when I opened the thingy in the keyboard to get the batteries out, I found out they like leaked or whatever its called and I could get the batteries out because the liquid dried up. SO I had to throw that keyboard away according to my dad. Then I had to unplug the keyboard on my parents computer and plug it into mine. Well it seems like the worse has passed right? Wrong. When I tried to backup the info on my old phone a message kept popping up saying "Your phone could not be backed up because a session could not be started." Well, naturally I got frustrated and tried to fix it so I turned to the Internet. Three hours later plus some fighting with my mom I got it done. Problem was, it was one in the morning. So my mom was really mad at me but I was slightly happy because I figured out how to fix it by myself. So in the end I finally got the phone to work the next day.
NOW, I SHOULD'VE blogged then but I fell asleep until around 10ish. THEN my mom told me we had to eat lunch wid her buddies. Well I thought "It's just lunch. We'll be back later" but NOO. We had to go to the Fall Festival at Holy Fam. Which WAS fun but you know, I had to blog too. AND I wanted to bake some brownies because I had an irresistible urge to eat something like that for the past week. I got a picture of this ride there below too Umm, so yeah we didn't leave and eat dinner until like 7ish. Then everything ended and we got home at around 9ish. So we had to go to bed.
SO, that's my big excuse to why I couldn't post then.
NOW, I'm going to continue my post by updating y'all to my life so far.
So far, I can't say it sucks but I can say I have some pretty bad luck.
Let's start out good first though.
Well firstly, I got a NEW PHONE! And what's amazing is that it beat my old phone by like a million cajillion. My old phone was the iPhone 3G which apparently the wifi broke and I couldn't update my apps at all for some reason and when I tried to multitask (i.e. go on the Internet and text) it just completely froze and shut down on me. NOW this phone is so much awesomer.
Now to the bad stuff. Let's see...I'll make a list:
1) there's some major friend drama over here
2) HC is coming up and we got some trouble brewing here too
3) I'm literally drowning in homework now
4) and in bad luck too
Now I'll explain everything in more detail:
1) so you might need to check out an old post of mine back down below to kind of refresh your memory.
Now here's the update:
-Girl M has officially separated herself from our friend group. Not with drama but lately she's been a bit mean. (i.e. if she says something like let's say "look at the person. That's [insert name]'s mom" and u say "Really? You sure??" because you already walked past the woman and you are staring at the back of her head she'd say "WTH? Are you blind?) and she's been bashing on a few socially-awkward but nice girls in our grade. So, I'm a little sick of that. And everyone else is too. And I don't think she cares though. She doesn't even talk to us anymore. She just studies.
-Girl A is a semi-friend. Girl P still doesn't like her and gradually, Girl A is showing her true character. I can't say much, but I don't know. She's more of an attention seeker? And modifies stories to make her look the best? More info on that later
-a small worry: I feel as if Girl P is trying to distance herself from me because when she's talking to Girl S she doesn't include me and won't tell me what they're talking about.
-on the good side, Girl F (new code name!) is still a good friend of mine and listens to my problems :)
2) this here is where the trouble is abrewing. See here:
-Girl A is friends with Guy M
-I am also friends with Guy M (sort of)
-I like Guy M
-Girl A does not like Guy M nor does she know I like him
-Girl P and S don't know either, only Girl F
-one day, Girl P was asking me about if I ever wonder if I'll ever go to homecoming with someone. And I was like maybe. And then she said "you should go with Guy M!" after some freak out and some major convincing we separated to go to our classes. While walking away Girl M says "You should go with him" me, having bad hearing, said "'We should go with him'? What?!" then we laughed and joked about my hearing. Then afterwards I was telling that story to Girl A and then she freaked and was like "WE SHOULD TOTALLY ASK HIM TO GO TO HOMECOMING WITH US (Girl M, Me, and her)!!!" well I'm just like "*cringe* Naah...." because I would like to go with him but only if he asked me. I don't want us asking him and him taking it as if we were making fun of him or something. So I'm worried because Girl A is really bent on finding him (she hasn't gotten the chance yet) and asking him for all of us...Girl F thinks its alright but I really want my first date to a dance to be special. And well, be REAL. As you may or may not already know, I'm kind of a hopeful romantic ;)
3) the usual. I'm drowning in homework. Willingly. I have to study for history tonight too...
4) this is where I'm just :O like I'll explain this maybe later. Just know: what I think will happen mostly never happens; what I think won't happen mostly DOES happen...
Well, that's it for now. It took a while to type all this...just fyi I types this al from my phone. So please ignore typos. Sorry! And c yah! :)

Gah I am so forgetful

Okay so I remembered last night about how I forgot. Okay. So I'm in my piano lesson right now so when I get back I'll hopefully post again. I put a reminder on my phone now and downloaded this app so I can post from my phone easily

He have me a rose...he gave me a rose...HE GAVE ME A ROSE!!!

GAAAAAAAAAH...okay, so...SORRY, I haven't been on to update lately and I really hate myself for it. And so, something recent just happened that made me wanna go on a post again. Okay, so first things first, as you may have already guessed, I died for a while drowning under the sea of homework (not to be dramatic of course). Occasionally, when I did go for the life-saving gulp of air, I made little mental blog posts all planned out…I know…it’s weird….
So, once again, I am so sorry for not posting *bows head* Now, I’ve currently planned out a little schedule, and hopefully, I can follow through it. I want to post every Friday or Saturday. Usually, I save my homework to do on Saturday, so I should be good on Friday, but I’m still not sure. So, this week will be my test run.
Now, onto the super happy business that got me to want to post, as you may or may not already now, YESTERDAY I WENT TO THE IL VOLO CONCERT IN MELBOURNE!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
I’ll try to upload the pictures later (since my camera is in some unknown location but IS NOT LOST). But…AAAAH!!! I went with my bff (whose blog you can go to here). We sat in the front row, and OHMYGOSH it was AMAZING! I mean, at first, I couldn’t get over the actual fact that they were THERE. And when Piero moved his mic to the edge of the stage…OHMYGOSH he was right in front of me and my bff! I COULD JUST REACH OUT AND TOUCH HIM. Except, I didn’t, and OMG I got a rose from him. I mean, I guess it wouldn’t be much since about 10 other people got a rose too, not to mention 20 other got a rose from Gianluca and Ignazio but the fact that he ACTUALLY WALKED OVER TO ME AND HANDED IT TO ME INSTEAD OF THROWING IT WAS LIKE MINDBLOWING. Do you know what else was mind-blowing? THEIR SINGING. It was like a bajillion times awesomer than I had imagined (not that I imagined them badly). AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and then we went backstage to see them. It was a bit of a rush, but still WE WERE LIKE LESS THAN AN INCH AWAY FROM THEM AND WE GOT TO TOUCH THEM. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most. Exciting. Moment. So Far (in my life). (I would say ever, but you never know what happens later on in life)
OKAY. So, I really wanted to post this because I really want to look back to this blog and relive everything, and if I just post here once, I would probably forget about it five years from now. So, I really want to get this blog up and rolling. I might change the layout now that I think about it. It’s awesome and all, but I really want something I chose to design, you know? If you don’t, oh well. I still wonder if anyone is even reading this blog. Doesn’t matter anyways…See yah!

Got some time...FINALLY

          OK, finally I got some free time of my hands to FINALLY tell you my entire series of events from when I last posted. Speaking of when I last posted, I need to check when I did...*checks* Ok, the last time I REALLY posted something was two weeks ago, Thursday. I can't remember that far, gosh daarn it. Okay, new plan: series of event so far that I can remember. Now, let's see where to start...           Okay, so first day of school was hectic, our campus is really big, and we have usually 3-4 buildings to go to in our schedules. On the plus side, I have more than half of my classes with my friends :) Umm, okay so I'm taking AP History which is so insanely hard. The cut off time to switch out of classes was last Tuesday, and during that time, I was really freaking out about whether I should stay or not. See, I'm taking this program where you have to a certain amount of Honors and AP classes in your entire HS Year while keeping a good GPA (around 3.7 I think). So, you see, now you understand my initial freakout when I got back my quiz and saw a D right smack in the middle of the paper. Okay, a bit of an exaggeration here, I DID get a D, but it wasn't right smack in the middle of my paper. Also, my next test was an F, so you see my freakout now? I thought I was seriously gonna lose it when I saw my other classes' grades too. I mean, when have I been so wrong? I don't wanna sound stuck up or anything, but this isn't the usual thing that happens, and when it's not usual, I FREAK. Yes, that makes me sound like a crazy, stuck-up jerk, but yeah...
          Okay, we need to get onto happier plains. See, I'm semi-partially scared that someone I KNOW is going to see this and guess who I am and THEN think I'm a big freak if I say some more personal-but-not-so-personal-that-you-can-find-out-where-I-live-personal things here. So, I might speak in code from time to time, so only people I know is okay to know will know (confusing, right? Maybe that's code...)
          So, after the start of the new school year, I recently discovered that a certain thingy (nothing gross I promise) came out of a long-term hibernation a little early than I expected. Now, I can probably guess what you think I mean, and let me just say, you're wrong. Period. No pun intended. But no, that's not it. Feel free to guess though...There is a comment box here right? If not, go ahead and go to the chat under the chat...thingy.
          Hmm...what else to say? Well, we got some drama going on in my friend group. I call it a friend group because it's not a clique but we are a tight group of friend’s capiche (sp?) ? This girl (Girl A) is trying to split us up from this other girl (Girl M), and my friend (Girl P) wants to tell Girl M, but I think that we shouldn't tell Girl M until Girl A does something again since it's been about a week since she's tried something. But, alas, Girl P says Girl A has history, but hey, she's, so far, living off of my second chance (since I give second chances to everyone, and DO NOT allow other people's opinions affect my opinions of people). We shall see how it goes. Also, Girl S is said (by Girl P) to be best friends with Girl A, but I have other thoughts and opinions than Girl P on almost everything in this little (big?) predicament. Hopefully it's solved soon; I don't live tension.
          I hope to get a good grade on the three tests tomorrow and Friday. Wish me luck! *goes off studying*

TOO. MUCH. HOMEWORK.

So, I promised, so I deliver. *posts* *goes back to homework*
Will try again tomorrow! :'(

Monday, August 22, 2011

Gosh, why???

Okay, once again, it's like the same problem as my last blog. I. DON'T. HAVE. ENOUGH. TIME!!! What is this?! I mean seriously, I WANT to post on my blog; I WANT to have chronicle of my life is HS to look back to, but THERE IS SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH TIME!!! I guess time is the one thing you can't get enough of...Well, I PROMISE to post a complete update tomorrow, even if the inevitable happens (or whatever you're supposed to say there). Time for bed (just finished homework), bye!

Anything worse than AP?

Gosh, it's like 11, so I'm going to make this short. Tomorrow, third day of school, ALREADY HAVING A QUIZ!!! Gosh, and I had to learn the 20-page chapter tonight and take notes of every little section. Plus there was the extra credit I took just in case I failed AP History...So, I'm almost done, wish me luck tomorrow; hopefully I'll be more awake tomorrow to give you a full report of the events so far. Night and stay tuned! :)

School is tomorrow...some last minute updates until then.

          Okay, lemme start out this post by saying "Sorry, sorry sorry, and SORRY!" Gosh, I started out saying I would post daily no matter what happens, and I can't even follow up to that! Gosh, ughh, since the last time I posted until now, I could write a whole novel about the events. It would be a boring one, but a long one (not TWSS, Asian Swag...). 
          Speaking about books, I have been literally reading for my life the last few days. That's why I have been busy. THREE long 200+ paged summer reading books to read in THREE days. Can anyone say, hectic? At whatever time it is now, I've finished the last two, and I'm on page 133 of the third. I think I'm good...
          So, a recap on the events today. I went shopping for uniforms (ughh). I met a friend of mine there...let's call her...ahh...BHSL...it's a bit long but I think Mika would know what I'm talking about... *wink wink* we scoured the entire uniform store for the old skirt for our school because the new one was like death, the plague, and every other horror you can name of put together. I finally found a section but I didn't find my size...so, we had to order. There was some drama between my mom and I ensuing after; to this moment, I hope it's all settled.
            Now, I'm just going to add a quick little thing just happened right now, and I'll be off on my reading storm once more. My BFF Asian Swag has currently gotten me super hooked onto this Italian opera (?) group called Il Volo. And believe me, I AM IN LOVE. Love, I tell you! It's like those crazy stalker fan-girl lovers for Justin Bieber. Except minus the crazy stalker part. Haha. So,  my mom has been recently introduced to my Italian group love, and she goes on to say, "Well, if you love Italians so much, I'm going to send you to Italy, so you can find an Italian boyfriend." In which I follow up with, "I can't even speak Italian!" She laughed and said, "Well, you're going to have to learn Italian there because you're not going to come back until you find a boyfriend for me!" Then my dad joined in saying, "...'for me'? Why do you need a boyfriend?!" Then, my mom laughed and said, "Well, I mean her finding a boyfriend for herself for me." Which made everything all the more confusing, but I got it in the end. Hope I won't be shipped off to Italy anytime soon!
          Tomorrow's school, and I'm super nervous and excited. The entire "WHAT AM I GONNA WEAR?!" craziness doesn't happen because we got uniforms (ugh). I'm half-relived half-mad about uniforms, but for now I'm looking at the relived part.  Wow, freshmen year. It seemed like only yesterday I was a fourth-grader looking at the Upper School lunches thinking, "Wow, that looks so yummy! One day that's gonna be me!" Well, that is me now.

Saturday, August 6, 2011

4...3...2...1...

          *sigh* There's four more days until school starts and two until orientation. We have to wear uniforms for that! What the heck?? So unfair. For some reason, I feel as if I'm not as open as I was in my before-blog (BB). What has happened to me??? I'm so unmotivated today. I should really get some people to read this blog, but this post started out horribly. >.<;; But I don't want to start over. A teacher of mine said "Forward Ever, Backwards Never"... or something like that. Maybe I'll get vent-ier and stress-ier and open-er when the year starts? Grr...I wish I could be an interesting person like other bloggers and vloggers...Oh well, this is me, keep reading~!

Welcome! ^-^

          Hello bloggers, visitors, and everything in between! I hope you know what's gonna go on here. If not, I'll explain everything in the shortest way possible haha. So, I’m a second-time blogger (?). I had a blog in this account a few years ago, but I didn't have the time to keep it going. I would just keep posting there, but I feel like I'm a bit of a different person from then. So, a new blog should follow. I think. Now that my middle school years have ended, I'm hoping to get a blog going about how my life is High School (HS) will go and about whatever  comes my way in life (minus the personal details. No stalkers needed here...). . I won't be saying ANYTHING personal in here, so don't bother scouring my later-on posts for information about where I live or what school I go to. If my blog gets discovered by someone, please, please, please don't troll, don't spam, and just have fun, and possibly pass it on? *gets too hopeful*

           I'm going to post an All About Me section next (w/o the details that will possibly inevitably bring my doom). So, if you want to read about the life of a semi-shy, bookworm-y, out-of-it-sometimes, hopeful romantic girl like me, read on! ^-^
