i like your buttonholes

Like the new layout?
I PROMISE a new post very soon.
I have to go to bed though!
Bye!

ERINS DREAMZ DECODED!
(dreamz. wow)
Dreaming about food or eating suggests your mind or body is longing to be nourished. If you're eating breakfast food, it could signal the beginning of a new relationship. If you dream you're hungry, it could mean you're looking for love.

Oh. That could be useful.

seriously, ridiculous

My amazing and beautiful phone was killed in a car accident on November 24th 2008. I always wanted to name it, but I never did. Now I'm using an old motorola, and it gets the job done, but it isn't special to me. My wallpaper is a photo of my demolished phone. I'd upload it, but I don't know how from this new phone. The pictures it takes are of terrible quality. I guess I'll have to get out my old, chunky, clunky camera to take all of my photos now. Sigh.

A lot of my fellow bloggers, and friends have been tired lately. Overloaded with work and life, or just staying up late for no reason. When I'm tired, I find that my longing for something increases. Not for everything, but for some things. This could be a problem if you want something you shouldn't want. Or shouldn't be able to want.

The reason I've been posting a little bit less than usual is because my mother has been using the computer a lot recently and I also have been talking on the phone more. I was never a phone person. Not to say that I don't talk on the phone a lot, because I say so much when I'm on the phone. Most of the time. Unless I'm tired.

Longing. Longing is a long unfulfilled desire for somthing that promises pleasure of some kind. Pining. Pining is an overpowering longing for something/someone, especially when two lovers are apart. It said so on urban dictionary.
I'm going to be playing with the layout on this blog.

i want to be one with you

I'm currently listening to Rock Your Soul-Elisa. It's in my playlist on the side. I'm also singing along. This is a picture/quote entry. Yay!

Nonsense wakes up the brain cells. And it helps develop a sense of humor, which is awfully important in this day and age. Humor has a tremendous place in this sordid world. It's more than just a matter of laughing. If you can see things out of whack, then you can see how things can be in whack.
Dr.Seuss

You spend your whole life stuck in labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape it one day, and how awesome it will be, and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.
Looking for Alaska, John Green

Every storm brings with it hope that somehow by morning everything will be made clean again, and even the most troubling stains would have disappeared like the doubts over his innocents, or the consequence of his mistake, like the scars of his betrayal or the memory of his kiss. So we wait for the storm to pass, hoping for the best even though we know in our hearts some stains are so indelible nothing can wash them away.
Mary Alice, Desperate Housewives

So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Stephen Chbosky

What you buy is what you own, and sooner or later what you own will come back to you.
Pet Semetary, Stephen King

I used to act dumb. It was an act. I am 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute. It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me. I know now that I can make a difference, that I have the power to do that. I have been thinking that I want to do different things when I am out of here. I have become much more spiritual. God has given me this new chance.
Paris Hilton

Well, I'm not going to be singing about lollipops because I no longer relate to lollipops.

I'm a chill person.
Normally.
But I just fell off my computer chair.
Oh lordy.

it made more than my night.

Imagine a world where everything is giant, except you.
Imagine being stuck in between two giant pickles.
One of them walks away, so you have room to roam, but THEN the one giant pickle ends up unzipping itself(because we all know that pickles have zippers). You end up getting pushed inside of it. THEN the zipper gets zipped back up, and before you know it, you are stuck. The zipper has turned into a hard, crunchy outer surface of the pickle. You could eat your way out, but you'd rather not. It would be messy, and besides, being stuck in a pickle is a difficult thing to endure. Or get out of. Or watch someone endure. Or something of the sort.
I want a pickle.

breaking dawn..in your pants

Taken from Lauren's Book Review of Breaking Dawn.
Thoughts?

"
Moral #1: Marriage is easy. Bella doesn't have to pay for, take care of, or do anything in the way of keeping her marriage going. Not even touching on the whole Mr. Perfect issue.

Moral #2: The only thing worth staying alive for is sex. Bella never stopped considering her choice to become a vampire until she had sex with Edward and then suddenly wanted to hold back. Crying and begging him to screw her because her happy dream was over? Come on girl, have some pride. Pull yourself together, Bella. Sex isn't everything.

Moral #3: Women are only good for babymaking. "Had her body changed because she was a werewolf? Or had she become a werewolf because her body was wrong? The only female werewolf in the history of forever. Was that because she wasn't as female as she should be?" Are infertile females less female because they can't make babies and that's all women are good for? Stephenie thinks so.

Moral #4: All of your problems will be solved for you, so don't try to fix them. That year of wanting to drink human blood? Don't worry about it, you'll just skip it anyway. That baby who's killing you from the inside? Don't sweat it, Edward will just make you a vampire and then you'll be fine. Annoying cub boy won't fall out of love with you? Chill out, he'll imprint on your babies and then you won't ever have to worry about them getting in the way of your perfect love life again. And that leads into #5...

Moral #5: Pedophilia is okay! Just wait until they get old enough (or in Renesmee's case, wait until they're 6 years old because then they'll look old enough) and you're good to go.

my love for you burns like a Charizard's tail.

You spent so much time talking long distance that I think you didn't learn to know each other up close. Yes, you did know things about each other, the little things, the big things, a bunch of things. You don't talk that much in person, and you could. You obviously have things to say. I think that it is stupid if one of you doesn't want this, and you are still pursuing it. If you still enjoy each other, then sure, try. But if you feel like you should move on, then move on. Do things IRL, not over the computer or text messages. Unless you 100% have to. The phone is okay. Just don't try to cover things up if you don't want other people to see them, because I personally think that it used to be obvious, and it still could be. I don't even bother with this that much anymore, because it is getting old. Just a thought.

I hate when people think that they are out of someone else's league. Obviously if they admire someone, they are going to see all the good in the person. But wouldn't they also have to see the person up close(not literally) and notice and accept their flaws? Don't think you are out of someone's league. It's reduncansheikulous.

I wish I had a dream decoder thingy book. It would be interesting to think about things like those theories and such.
You have been there for me through everything. Even when I haven't exactly been the best friend, you were always forgiving. I don't know what I would do without you. On my worst days you are one of the only people that can make me smile no matter what. I think its amazing that we are still best friends even though we haven't gone to the same school since grade six. If we ever grow apart I will always have the best moments of my life to remember you by. And hopefully we will some day be able to sing together after actually preparing and put on a great show!
Thanks :)
Some people will come, and some will pass, but the ones who mean something to you will always last. But, there are just certain people that aren't meant to fit in your life no matter how much you want them to. ARGH. A person can apologize for forever, and even if you forgive them, sometimes you just can’t forget the pain they have caused you. You know, sometimes you only forgive someone because you CAN’T stand NOT having them in your life. Of course, everything happens for a reason. Or does it? The hardest part is finding out what the reason is. I would say, the only people I need in my life are the ones that need me in theirs, but that isn’t true. They also say we don’t lose friends, we just learn to our real ones are. That is sort of true, sadly. I hate it. And also, whoever said what you don’t know can’t hurt you was a complete and TOTAL MORON. Cause for most people I know, not knowing is the worst feeling in the world. When we don’t know who to hate, we hate ourselves. It’s so pathetic! Its crazy, things can change in the blink of an eye. People are so complex. We scream our insecurities but mutter our apologies. That’s why this world will always be so wrong. Of course, there are a bunch of other reasons..

A Good Friend. I think everyone has a different definition of a good friend. I think that a good friend is the person who gives you the better of the two choices, holds your hand when you're scared, helps you fight off those who try to take advantage of you, thinks of you at times when you are not there, reminds you of what you have forgotten, helps you put the past behind you but understands when you need to hold on to it a little longer(sorry), stays with you so that you have confidence, goes out of their way to make time for you, helps you clear up your mistakes, helps you deal with pressure from others, smiles for you when they are sad, helps you become a better person, and most importantly they love you for who you are.
Romantic love is an illusion. I think so anyways. It can be manipulated, and twisted. AND the very nature of it is deceptive! It promises closeness but the only thing it ever really reveals is the dreams and fears of the person with the 'obsession'. Most people want to be adored but they dont want to do anything to get it, they just want some random person to come along out of the blue and find them.. like awesome or irresistable or something. People are lazy like that. No one ever really falls in love with anyone but themselves. Other people just make you feel good about yourself when they shower you with compliments and such. We are waiting for us to come and show us something about ourselves that we can adore and stuff like that. Since someone else sees greatness in us, we try(and sometimes fail, but mostly succeed) to see it ourselves.
Rupert Grint is amazing, by the way.

the summer of grade 7

yeah. well it is the summer now. wow i just realized how little i have written.
well ok i need to write this down to keep it off my mind. At morgans party, i talked to this one girl a little bit. We talked about who had a better life at the moment or something of the sort. She thought that it was me but i thought that in someways its me but in love its definetly her. then we did an experiment. this is the sad part.
we both sat down on the ground outside where people were hanging out. it was concrete mind you. we both sat beside each other on the ground.
M walked to us. He said "P, come on, get up from the ground. Then he said "please".
P shook her head, or said no, or something i cant remember.
Then, N walked over. You can probably guess what happened, but i want to tell you because you are a file on the internet that is helping me stay sane.
N said, "P, get up off the ground. Why are you sitting there? Let me help you up."
Then she got up. I sat there for another minute or so, thinking about how horrible my love life is.
I mean, i don't WANT to be like almost everyone else with their boyfriends and stuff, because they are very immature(which is fine because its only grade 7), but i just really need to be loved then someone other than my family and friends. Its like, really important to me. No one even NOTICED me on the ground there, except for my friend I. I'm not really mad at P for this at all, but i mean seriously, can't SOMEONE change the way love is distributed around here??? Well i guess not.
I have never had my first kiss, I have slow danced with ONE person(and that person danced with like all the girls in our class that came to the dance), i haven't gone out with anyone, i haven't gone on a date, and no one that i 'love' has told me they love me or even LIKE me in that way. i mean seriously, whats going on here??? im not mad at P or anything, and im not jealous of her. I guess im jealous that she is loved sooo much by others(guys in particular lol) and i, sadly am not. at all. but im not jealous of her. i really dont think that i will go out with anyone in eigth grade at all either. maybe even not ninth. why can't anyone every like me that i like back?

well at least i've got friends to lean on. its a pity that they arent in my school or even class. except one so far that ive heard of.

grade 6

This is more of the THOUGHTS folder. The first line of the first post is the best thing I've read all day.

http://www.eatonhand.com/ten/ten000.htm is a good site. It tells about Tendons!
SO TODAY I DIDN'T EAT MY SANDWICH. Jenna gave me her pudding and i ate some of her soup.
This is a really dumb writing thing. I have better things to do.
I am going to write somting for the UPPER CASE news.
In my new dance class there is a girl who is such a show off. I thought that she was REALLY nice before but now she isn't As nice.
I like the other pplz tho.
Chantel Has BEEN missing A lot of classes.
She dosent no the new part of our dances.
I really liek our coustumes.
I hope there is friend day cuz i want jenna to see!
This is way later than i expected to finish wirting this.
The girl is actually really nice, but she does show off a bit.
today i got my dance pictures taken.I kept on calling it a photo shoot. My hair was twisted but it wasn't as good as some of the other people's hair. i am going to be dying my hair soon. It will be BLACK! Really.I already dyed it red. it is almost west hawk. So much has happend since i was in grade five. So much has changed.now there is a new girl in my class, her name is darya.She is really tall.
Tomorrow i am going to sadies house and i am going to meet her nices and nephews. Sadie read me her diary and it was pretty good. I sweared to never tell it to anyone, so i wont even type any of it here.
i wish i colud see fiddler on the roof.
I also wish that i would become faumous and become a singer and everyone would know me and i would make the world a better place.
If that could happen,
Erin

There was more in there about my baba but I'm not going to publish it.
That was grade 6, and now is one post from grade 7. It's pretty..umm..odd.


I havent typed out my thoughts in a long time.
Jenna is now @ _____, and i am @ _____.
I really like my school but... i wish ******* wasn't in my class becasue she thinks that i am rude and mean and she thinks i am mad at her. she even admitted that she didnt like me.
Seriously.
I also wish jenna was in my school. There is a little snag in the sweater though...
I am goning to be getting braces in november and i have to have them on for MORE THAN 2 years.AHHH! i havent even lost all of my baby teeth yet.

The phone rang just a momonet ago and it was the public library and
it was a recording.
I got invited to rossara's b-day party.
Jenna did too. the day we leave her party, the new episode of zoey 101 will be on. i think i am gonna miss it!!! oh no!
Me and jenna want to perfrom on halloween night.
The only problem is, where and how?
I need backup 4 this.


Rude Awakinging: Sometimes i think that i can become famous but sometimes i think i will never be, and dont even really want to be.
What will it be?
I know i can go after my dreams but what is my dream?
You know, if you are famous you will get followed and you can be worth
lots of money. and you can never spend a normal day.


OH MAN. I totally thought that I had a chance of being famous.

grade 5

I was looking through my hotmail emails and I came across this one folder that I have with three emails. The folder is entitled THOUGHTS. It's interesting to look back, because I sometimes remember thinking those things, and other times I just read it and go "WHAT?" So, heres some of the emails that I have in there. Some things have been altered so I won't give away where I live and stuff like that.

Winter Camp

Okay,here's the scoop:I want to go to Winter Camp at _____ and Jenna does too.We are going to pretend that we are sisters and trick everyone at camp.Annah and Leah are going again.I don't want Annah in my group but I don't know why.

When we go to wheelies,it will be less crowded so I will be able to skate better.I got a bit better today.

Rude Awakining:Will I ever get better at skating? Probably not.

I got to find out why everyone that goes to camp swims,well,just not as good as other people.

I think that entry was from grade 5. This next one is from grade 5 too, and it's longer and more emotional(ish).

Report Cards

I got a ammmmmmmaaaaaaaaazzzzzzzziiiiinnnnggggggggg report card.

I got 1\2 in torah.
At our parent teacher interviews Ms.Hiller gave me my space project Back. I got.....98\100! izn't that good?

Rude Awakening: Why did both of the Jenna's get a higher mark than me? Why does Jenna N think that Jenna S didn't deserve an 100/100,LIKE HER.
Well MAYBE IT WILL CHANGE.
I am SOOOO sad about baba. I was cryin' for a long time.
I hate when that happens only the last time it did i wwas 1 1/2 so i didn't understand as much.
Now i only hav 2 grand parents left.
B4 wat i wanted was to look beautiful and have longer hair faster but now that IT has happened(i don't like that word)I would take back wat i said and wished that mi grandparents will die when i die.
I am so sad.
Well who wouldn't be?
Well mi mom said that i am the Apple of her eye beacause i am the oldest and we always used 2 play 2 gether.
We are not sitting Shiva but we are all coming to our house after 4 bagels and stuff.
I MISS BABA!!!
I bet daddy does too.
Cause he is her daughter.
He has no parents left!
I will go talk to him
I miss her,
Erin
It is almost the end of the school year.It has gone by so quickly.
I am SO SAD bout baba but i think that she would like us to remember her by the things that we used to do with her.
I miss having sleepovers at her house.

This next one is about the end of my grade 5 school year, and the title is the place I go in the summer.

______ will be so much fun .But I am wondering about the weather and whether or not sabrina is going to bug me .It's not that i don't like her its just that she bugs me a lot . Help me !!!!

Eventully Sabrina didn't come but guess what??? Jenna met her at humane society camp and made friends.There is about 2 weeks till school and i thought that me,jenna,jenna and Jessica or just Jenna and me could get together and have a little party and make a tradition that we , for now on , will always get together on the day/night before The First Day of school. Mabye some one will help me and phone me over
Write more mext time erin.

The next one was written when I was in grade 6. I am such a strange child.


Well Happy new year! My LAST year @ margerat park.

Illana is liked by ALL of the teachers

i should tell you

I want to just go to sleep.
I'm really tired.
Luckily/Unfortunately, I can't.

It's computer multimedia once again, and after this is Improv. I'm not even IN improv. But I go, nonetheless. I love to watch improv, and I just couldn't be on the team this year. I have so much going on and I didn't want to be baggage to the team. I wish more people understood that I actually have a reason. I do think that I am okay at improv, I don't think that I am bad at it or anything, but I definetely have room to grow. Well, everyone has room to grow, but I have a LOT of room to grow. Don't make jokes about my height. Thanks.

I have a bunch of choral performances coming up, and I have a TON of black clothes to wear. I arranged my closet in such a way that each colour is together. There is surprisingly a LOT of black coloured clothing. I have a bunch of tops, a few dresses, some sweatshirts and hoodies, and then some skirts and pants. Oh, and tights. I don't have a pair of black shoes that are fancy though. I have my new pair of converse(YAY) and a pair of black flats. I also have the CUTEST EVER pair of flip flops. But they are fancyish? I don't really know how to describe them, except I'll just say that they have huge, shiny, black bows on them that make me smile.

MY COMPUTER TEACHER JUST SAID PWNAGE.

I have a lot of dresses in my closet. I don't have much use for them. I wish I went to more fancy party type things. I have this one black and gold dress that I ADORE, but I haven't gotten a chance to wear it in SO long. It still fits me, and the cut is just lovely. Why am I talking about dresses?

So, my fanclub is growing. It's kind of weird to think that I have qualities that people like. And I mean REALLY like. It's a very strange feeling, but I'm all very chill about it. I don't know why I'm so chill. I guess I'm just a chill person.
The snow outside today reminded me of something. Can you guess what?
1. What is sampling rate?
A sampling rate is the number of times, per second, that asample is recorded.
That's the type of stuff that I am currently doing in class. There is still about half an hour left.

yummy, a recipie

CHOCOLATE SUNDAE PIE
Seriously, try it. It is full of awesome.

INGREDIENTS
1 package of graham crackers
1/4 cup butter
4 cups(or scoops) of any flavour of ice cream
1/2 cup of nuts(any kind you want)
chocolate sauce
UTENSILS
big bowl
small bowl
large spoon
spatula
9 inch pie plate

1.Crush the graham crackers and put them into a bowl. Make sure there aren't any big pieces.
2. In a small bowl, melt the butter(or margarine, if you would like).
3. Pour the butter over the crushed graham crackers, and then mix it well. Use your hands to press the mixture in the bowl into the bottom of the pie plate. This is going to be your crust.
4. Put the pie plate into the freezer and keep in it there for about 15 minutes.
5. Take out your ice cream a few minutes before you take the pie crust back out, so it has some time to soften.
6. When the pie crust has chilled, remove it from the freezer, and scoop the ice cream over it. Use a spatula(or the back of a spoon) to smooth the ice cream over the pie. Hot water on the spatula will help.
7. Sprinkle the top of the chocolate sundae pie with the nuts and then add whatever you want on top. I really dislike cherries, but my dad does, so I'd put cherries on this if he was going to have some.
8. Put it back into the freezer and freeze it until it is firm. Then, put chocolate sauce on top(make it look cool!) and then SERVE!

YAY!

Shmanks, Emmerz.

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST FEAR?
The unknown. And forgetting or being forgotten. And heights. And I also don't feel comfortable around birds.

WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT STATE OF MIND?
Calm.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE OCCUPATION?
Performing, reading, editing and filming a video, singing along to music(alone or with people), having a good conversation and making brownies.

WHAT HISTORICAL FIGURE DO YOU MOST IDENTIFY WITH?
Alice Walker? I don't know? Bette Midler?

My friend's mother. She is a very wonderful person, and she always tries to put other people before herself. I can't pick just one for this question!

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE FICTIONAL HERO?
Charlie from The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Trio from Harry Potter, and..

WHO ARE YOUR REAL-LIFE HEROES?
My friends who show me that I can get through things, and my family who has been there for me since forever, and also J.K. Rowling, because her life story is so overwhelming, and it's a powerful story.

WHAT IS YOUR MOST TREASURED POSSESSION?
My fifth Harry Potter book. A small painting that my Baba gave me. Tapes of me recording myself as a child.

WHEN AND WHERE WERE YOU HAPPIEST?
I'll change this to When and Where ARE you happiest. At my friend Jenna's house, on stage, outside in the grass, anywhere that people I love are. And at a place with pasta salad that I call camp.

WHAT IS YOUR MOST OBVIOUS CHARACTERISTIC?
I can't pick! Really, I can't! Leave what you think in the comments!

WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST DEPLORE (HATE) IN YOURSELF?
Hmm. How I need to be right? Except, I sort of like that..

WHAT IS THE TRAIT YOU MOST DEPLORE IN OTHERS?
When people take EVERYTHING literally, and make comments when they aren't needed. And when people are immature at bad times. I also dislike when people misuse words, especially derogatory terms.

WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST EXTRAVAGANCE?
Food? Haha, yeah.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE JOURNEY?
Everything.

WHAT DO YOU MOST DISLIKE ABOUT YOUR APPEARANCE?
The fact that i'm bony?

WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER THE MOST OVER-RATED VIRTUE?

Lovely and Awesome.

WHAT DO YOU VALUE MOST IN YOUR FRIENDS?
That we have each other's backs and sides. And even the front of us. Even the most important parts of us, and the least important parts. They accept me for who I am, the good and the bad. And we aren't all dramatic and serious all the time, fighting and such.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE?
Without pain.

IF YOU WERE TO DIE AND COME BACK AS A PERSON OR AN ANIMAL, WHAT DO
YOU THINK IT WOULD BE?

A human. Hannah Montana's new co-star, anyone?

CHOOSE?

A book. Secondhand stores would be so fun to live in.

WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO (WORDS YOU LIVE BY OR THAT MEAN A LOT TO YOU)?
"It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live."

"Difference of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open."

"It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

-J.K. Rowling

"Books are the ultimate Dumpees: put them down and they’ll wait for you forever; pay attention to them and they always love you back."

-John Green

"Maybe it's good to put things in perspective, but sometimes, I think that the only perspective is to really be there. Like Sam said. Because it's okay to feel things. And be who you are about them."

"So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them."

"If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don't want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too. I want them to be able to do whatever they want around me"

-Stephen Chbosky

WHO HAS BEEN THE GREATEST INFLUENCE ON YOU?
Everyone around me.

try to remember everything

Today is November 6th 2008. It’s currently raining. I’m on the second storey and I can see the rain splattering casually on the windowpane. Did that sound poetic or what? I’m just joshing, it didn’t sound very poetic. It’s all based on opinion, I guess. I can see two light brown chimneys outside of the window. It makes me think of the winter holidays, and how I used to sit in front of the fireplace, being careful not to be hit by sparks or stare into the flames for too long at a time. I used to have this one red dress, and I loved it. It’s November 6th though, not December.
During math class today, after eating all of my food, like usual, I began to do my work. After doing a chunk of questions, I took out a new slice of paper(oh, that saying brings me back to grade 7) and began to draw a face. 15 minutes later, I had covered the entire front of the page. I wish I had a scanner so that I could show y’all, but the page is full of drawings of Harry Potter related things, speech bubbles and all. It’s quite a delight to see it, so I have kept it out of my binder all day.



I haven’t done a word of the day in two whole days! That is long for me. I was planning to have a different one every day for the whole year(or maybe just the whole school year, because I gave them to my friend P) but that didn’t happen. Whatever. There’s still ‘Hug of the Day’.
Check that out.
BYYYEEEERRRRRZZZZZZZZZZ!

i'm not old, i'm old school


Today is going to be a long day.
I love it.
I keep having weird mood swings.
I'm happy for a while, but then I'm the complete opposite of that.
I really don't know why.
Or, maybe I do.
Lalalalalalalalalalala,

YOU ARE MAKING ME GO CRAZY

WOOT! I am doing okay.
Yesterday I was being a downer.
Silly me.
I PROMISE that I am going to do that tagging game thing. I'm just busy(AKA I'm a noob).

One thing before I go and do my hair, do some math, do some guys(drawing..DUH)(i really don't need to, that just sounds funny), eat some food, and text or call this one guy who I like a lot:

BLOGGERS=AWESOME
AWESOME=ME
ME=YOU
YOU=CRAZY IN LOVE
CRAZY IN LOVE=BEYONCE
omg does that mean beyonce has a blog?!

Adios!
(I took spanish last year, so I'm just trying to show off and be cool and stuff like that.)
THE LOVELY:ERINMEAGAN

P.S. OBAMA WON! Any thoughts?
P.S. Everything isn't always your fault. It's mine too.

FEELING SPECIAL!

I've been tagged. FINALLY! Just kidding. I never thought I would be, I only thought that the good blogs were tagged. The lovely one who tagged me was Bev at http://a-bev-blog.blogspot.com/ AKA icarryyourheart, and thank you very much for doing so.
The Rules for this whole tagging shenanigan(does that even make sense?) are:

Mention the person who nominated you
list 6 unimportant things that make you happy
tag 5 blogs and state the rules on your blog
notify them with a comment on their blog that they have been tagged!

numero uno:
hugs

It's just one of those things that make people happy. Including myself. Although, my parents don't seem to think so. Hugs make me happy, even if I'm down.


numero dos:

the sansom window project
http://yourmessagehere.typepad.com/my_weblog/
click the link. I can't even describe how amazing it is! Well, maybe I could, but if you just click the link, you will know better than if I described it to you.



numero tres:
the weekenders


this show is epic. It has always been that show that I've seen almost every episode of. Besides Lizzie McGuire, that is. My friend J and I figured out that she would be Tish and I would be Tino. Of course.




numero cuatro:
finding new musical artists that I enjoy

numero cinco:
http://www.cakespy.com/


numero seis:
dictionaries

I am now going to tag:
http://modernmarie.blogspot.com/
http://monstersinminds.blogspot.com/
http://makelovewiththelightson.blogspot.com/
http://betterwithanaccent.blogspot.com/
http://i-am-haley.blogspot.com/
http://raindropstoday.blogspot.com/

Yay for being tagged!

PEACE.

wam drinks make you kinder


you confuse me sometimes.
That's a nice beginning to a post, isn't it?
I came home from babysitting not too long ago, and I watched two of the BEST MOVIES EVER! Well, kind of. It's all opinions, I guess. The movie that I watched with the girls was The Parent Trap. The one with Lindsay Lohan. I can recite plenty of the lines from the movie, and I just love it to pieces. After they were put to bed, I had a few hours to kill, so I watched Harriet the Spy. I brought it with me, planning ahead. THE VHS!


I have a song stuck in my head. It just keeps playing on repeat. It was okay the first time, but after about 67 times, I'm a bit sick of it. It's a good song though, Transylvania Mania from Young Frankenstein.


I've been doing some thinking lately(lately? What? Shouldn't I say I was thinking the other day? Because I'm always thinking. So that statement clearly doesn't work out in this situation), and
1-I want coloured skinny jeans
2-I think I'm going to order a dance picture this year
3-I need some HP merch.
That isn't all I was thinking about, of course. This school year has just started two months ago, and it already feels like a very long time. I have so much to look forward to, and my classes don't completely put me in rage..yet. Just kidding. Currently I am taking: Phys Ed, Pre Cal, Computer Multimedia, Geo, Choir, Vocal Jazz and Chamber Choir. I'm also in the school musical, and I was going to join the improv team(sorry) but I don't think I'm good enough to be on it yet, and besides, I have enough on my plate. I don't want improv overlapping anything, especially my carrot sticks.
It just feels like I'm so much older than before, and so much more mature. Well, not really, but I definetely feel like a changed person, in a way. I guess love does that to you. You know, I think I'm in love.






NOT.
Oh man. No way. Not yet. Maybe not ever, who knows? But, back to my topic. I think that I'm different somehow. Last year, we all wrote a letter to ourselves. We are going to get it back in our last year of high school at some point. The big thing about it is that we are supposed to forget about it, and get a happy suprise when we recive it. I can't really forget about it though. I remember writing in it that I probably won't have a boyfriend by grade 12. I also remember calling myself something funny..I just don't remember the exact term at the moment. Looking back, I wish I wrote better things. If I write it and keep it in my room, it won't be the same. I don't want to give it to anyone, I need to do one of those things where you can send an email and have a set date for it to be sent. That is a master plan. Almost as good as that one plan to write a musical..
I just realized that I have a practice tomorrow. Oh boy! I don't know if I'll be going. It is on the other side of the city, and I don't have a way of getting there, besides bus, of course. Hmm. I haven't been on twitter in a while. Sorry. Wait, why am I apologizing? No one reads this anyways. All of a sudden I feel very stupid. As if I'm talking to myself. As I type this, I am saying the words in my head, and they sound quite stupid to me. Rhombus. Haha, that sounded funny in my head...MOVING ON! I really don't have anything to say. Sorry, again..Check out the post below for the November playlist! Yay!
Time is making fools of us again,
Erin

you're gonna be going in style

You are really getting on my nerves. Not literally. That's a good thing. But you really need to fix yourself up before the next time you talk to me. I know you won't though.

You. If you want it so bad, go and DO IT. See where that gets you! *snicker*

So, Halloween was yesterday. I didn't go out, I saw a musical, and it was AMAZING. I dressed up as Penny Pingleton, wearing a plaid dress, glittery gold tights, flats, and curly pigtails. I actually wore eyeliner too! I never really bother. I woke up today and I had a craving to watch a Mary-Kate and Ashley movie. So I took out my old VHS movies and watched about 4. I have a lot of stuff of theirs. I really want to get their new book, Influence. How was your halloween?

I'm having Subway for dinner. I haven't had it in a while. What do you like on your sub? I like to have italian bread, turkey, mayo, sub sauce, lettuce, tomatoes and LOTS of pickles! I get the same thing every time.
photographs, photographs, photographs.
I want to take pictures of things outside, but I fear that it is too cold to lie in the grass.
