Theme music: "Take me away" Fefe Dobson
I am: bored out of my mind
The grandparents are here...along with a few other members of my family. Maybe it's because I worked until 4am today or maybe it's because they're talking about how cute I was when I was young but I just cannot stay awake. I really don't mean to be rude, but I'm finding more comfort upstairs in my room then hanging around the rels (yes, I know I just typed rels'. I'm too lazy to type relatives).
It was quite funny because dinner was the worse. Someone was always interrupting me (I don't know why that would bother me now considering it happens to me all the FREAKIN TIME!). I started to get one of those fake smiles so I decided to let my mind wonder until I found some kind of happy thought. I finally found one and ended up smiling so much that one might have actually thought that I was having the time of my life.
What's really funny is that I used that exact same thought to relax me when I was doing my best to take out my contacts last night. Who in their right mind thinks it's normal to reach into your eye?!

Oozing confidence and that sort of thing
While I was getting ready for work today I started to think about all the managers and how awesome they all really are. There has always been one that I've really looked up to though and that's Lori. She has this wicked ability to take charge and do what needs to be done. When I first started working at the theater, I heard rumors that she was the hardest manager there and how everyone feared her wrath. She used to make us clean every single item in the concession stand and then, when we were finished and exhausted, she'd make us scrub the back room. At the time it seemed crazy but now that I've worked with her quite some time, I've come to realize that she makes employees work hard because that's her job (a fact that I COULD HAVE noticed earlier had I not been too caught up in myself). If she didn't push us so hard then we wouldn't be the clean, hard-working theater that we are.
Honestly, if I EVER hear an employee say something disrespectful about her they will have to deal with my wrath.
I am Nerd, hear me roar!
Theme Music: "Every You and Every Me" by Placebo
I am: the biggest dork on earth
Tonight's ride home really got me thinking. Mostly about why I have this obsession with proving that Disney is an evil company puting out subliminal sex-messages in every movie they make but also about why I still care whether or not I make a massive fool of myself.
See, I used to be uber caught up in trying to be cool. I'd spend a good hour and a half just deciding upon what I would wear (more like 'what other people would like me to wear') then I'd spend another hour worrying about what kind of conversations I would have with these "so called cool people." It was quite sad. No one should ever do that to themselves. Seriously! I know that I definitely don't want to spend half my time worrying about what questions I could possibly be asked and how I should respond to them! I have better things to do...like make jello sculptures. I want people to like me for my quirkiness not for some kind of fake barbie-doll-like personality and if people can't deal with that then they can just suck-a-toe!
On a completely random note:
Dear Lord, I just spent about 15 mins trying to figure out where this high-pitched beeping sound was coming from and when I discoved that it was from the smoke detector I quickly took out the battery. Who would have thought that it would continue beeping. So I spent another 5 mins trying to rip it from the ceiling in hope that maybe it would stop then.

- I will not curb my passion to play video games.
- I will not hide the fact that some of my art work is deeply tied into my emotions and therefore can be quite weird at times.
- I will not deny my love for the following bands: Garbage, SuperChick, Kutless, Switchfoot, Reliant K, Offspring, Green Day, and ect.
- I will not even conceal that I have the ability to write HTML and am interested in learning CSS.
- Finally, I will not harbor my love for graphic novels of all sorts!
I will not conform DARN IT!

Nope.So I did the only thing left to do. I screamed and yelled until I came up with the idea of smothering it with a pillow. Guess what? I can no longer hear the beeping! Yay for me!

Wha...? Why is your face the size of an orange jenny?
theme music: "Batman theme song"...dunna nana nanananannanana BATMAN!
Ok, so I let me dog, Jenny, outside today and when I let her back in her face was HUGE!! It had swollen to the size of a grapefuit! Of couse I flipped out and made a mad dash for the phone in hopes that my mom or dad would somehow know what to do. I ended up running all over the house looking for that stupid vet book that we keep around for when the dogs get sick. I found it..but it was of no help. DAMN YOU DR. SO-AND-SO!!! Well, my mom made a special trip home just to take her to the vet. It's funny because I always thought that vets were supposed to make the situation better. I think it should be a rule of thumb that when you see a patient that you don't say
The conclusion was drawn that Jenny had picked a fight a with an angry bee.
Bee: 1
Jenny: 0

"Dear God, What happened?"because that really doesn't make people feel better. The vet gave Jenny 3 or 4 shots and her face when down but not before the vet could say "she looks like a possum" and "her face is as big as my fist."

S-M-R-T
Stuck in my head: "You're so true" -Joseph Arthur
I am: S-M-R-T (haha, little Simpsons joke for ya there)
I just finished my third night of closing-training and I guess I've caught on to things pretty well. Andrew (the manager training me) basicly just sat there on his butt and watched me do all the closing stuff. Haha, that was his only sort of entertainment for the night. So sad...so sad.
It was pretty cool night overall. We cleaned so many theaters with Shrek 2 that, our voices have given out from singing "Funky Town." It's quite sad. In the last theater we cleaned, I told Andrew that he needed to break dance...he gave me the evil eye and said that he'd do it if I sang.
Man, my head is killing me. When I left to drop off some stuff at the bank I hit my head on my car door. Yeah, I entertained Andrew atleast. He was talking to me as I was getting in the car and then WHAM. Lol, you should have seen the look on his face. He did that whole pucker of the lips and the thing when you breathe in through your teeth to make that weird noise then finished with an "ouch."

In other words, I may never see him dance. ::sigh:: I guess it was worth a try.

"You'd think that this all would be over with, but nah. That would make life less annoying and where's the fun in that?"
Stuck in my head: "One Step Closer" by Linkin' Park
I am: back to being annoyed
It seems that my "annoyance" has returned from a short but needed vacation. I never did get a chance to post why I was really annoyed mostly because...well because I guess I just didn't. Anyway I was talking about this "annoyance" to Ashley and she is starting to get irritated because of it as well not only because she's my best friend and we tend to feel the same way about things but because EVERYONE (and by everyone I mean my friends) is a little ticked about it (and when I say a "little ticked" I mean a whole lot). We have plans to gag this "annoyance" and play loud teeny-bopper music it until it goes away (haha). Maybe we'll play some Hanson and dance around like immature fools(hehe)

....but seriously, Hanson rocks my face off.
This is not the end but a beautiful beginning
I sent out an e-mail today to all the Sr.s that I had e-mail addresses for. I thought I'd share it with the rest of you. Ps-Natalie, if I had any mistakes in this e-mail I am so sorry. I didn't even read over it to see if everything made sense.
Wow. Well here it is. My end-of-the-school-year e-mail. You all might think it's weird that I'm doing this, considering I didn't do an e-mail last year but on the drive home today I realized that I needed to say something. So here it is...
This is it people. The end of what we have come to consider an era. Though we will no longer have the label of "high schooler" attached to us we will still have to deal with drama, hard class assignments, and teachers who just don't like us but if we are strong enough to live through 4 years of it, I believe that we all are strong enough to live through a life time of it. On Monday, when your alarm goes off at it's usual time, just remember that even though these past few days have been hard on us all, whether we've had to deal with a lack of school spirit or maybe just hard times at home, we have one less thing to think about at 8 am in the morning (Thank you God).
This isn't Grease. We won't break out into song on the last day but that doesn't mean that it has to suck or be uber sad. I'm going to make Friday wonderful. I am going to march into that school with a smile and be the person who I've wanted to be all year. I am going to greet all of my friends with a "Can you Believe it?" or a "We've Made it" and not a "This day will suck" or "Uck, I can't wait till this is all over." I am going to enjoy every last second of tomorrow and when it's over I'm not going to cry because this is not goodbye but hello. We have only completed one tiny step of our lives. We have many, many more to go.
College is going to be scary for us all. It's new. It's different. It's a beginning. Don't worry about that. There are others going through the exact same thing! I know there are people out there, that like me, are most worried about being assigned a freaky roommate to share a dorm with. Dear Lord, protect me from the messy people! I will survive a bad roommate, just like I've survived everything else.
I have compiled a list of advice as we leave for the outside world. I hope you enjoy!
~Don't regret the things that have happened these 4 years. Everything happens for a purpose. We learn from our mistakes, do we not?
~Never forget that you are beautiful because you really are.
~Smile. Not only does it use less muscles than frowning but if it doesn't make your day, then it will make someone else's.
~Be you, even if others don't like it. Be as weird as you want to. Be as smart as you think you are because it's not what those OTHER people think. It's what you think that matters.
~Have fun not matter what or else it really isn't worth doing what you're doing. As Mary Poppins says,
"In ev'ry job that must be done
There is an element of fun
You find the fun and snap!
The job's a game"
~You make life what it is. Don't forget that.
~Don't obsess over things that you do not have control over. Instead think about the wonderful occurrences in life.
~Believe in something. Have faith.
~You are cool. You are more than cool. You are wicked awesome.
~Sing everyday.
~Play everyday.
I won't drag out this ending like some kind of bad commencement speech. I don't want to wish you all good luck because I believe none of you need it. You all will succeed in whatever you put your heart into.
This is not Farwell
This is just another hello.

Paranoid? Nah, not me.
Stuck in my head: "Say my name" by Destiny's Child
I am: zoned out
Natalie joined for the Shrek 2 preview last night. It was great. I think we were the only ones in the theater who couldn't stop laughing! I gave her, her little grad. gift (a doll called "Mr. Wonderful). She didn't seem to enthusiastic but then again who is at 12am? By the end of the night I caught her caressing the doll more than once. It was worth it to see that.
I know I've talked about my intense case of paranoia before but I have to bring this up one more time. Last night a few guys were sitting behind Natalie and I (Goodness, I can't even remember who exactly it was) and I swear I heard my name, not once but twice. Sure it was probably something like

"Hey, Laura's fat head is in my view"or
"Hey, Laura's friend has on a Teen Girl Squad shirt"or even
"Hey, Laura's friend is hot"lol (because they always say that about my friends. Especially when Tamila came in. Hahaha I don't think I even have to mention what Chad said about Katelyn. What can I say? I hang out with pretty people).

10 reasons why I can' t wait to leave KHS
10. The Art classes that suck
9. The people in my art classes that suck
8. The pointless busy work which really doesn't keep us busy
7. The lack of time I have because of the # of Clubs I joined, which is really my own fault
6. The air heads who can never seem to complete a sentence "but...like..yeah..whatever"
5. The jerky freshmen
4. The drama which seems to be brough up on an hourly basis
3. The lack of respect from teachers
2. The strain on my creativity
1. The christians who really aren't christian. Somehow they are always talking about God and getting wasted on the weekends

By Golly I think this week might actually rock
Stuck in my head: "The Oscar Meyer/Bologna Song"
I am: confused
How do I still have black ink on my hands? It looks like I've been working the the coal mill. Does springfield even have a coal mill? ::cough cough:: I think I'm getting the black lung pop. This is what I get for messing around with Mrs. Bylander's pens. DARN YOU BYLANDER AND YOUR PENS!!!
Ack I just rubbed my eye with one of the inky fingers. It burns!!
So, I've been wanting to buy Six Feet Under: Season 1 on DVD for quite some time but I had mixed feelings about actually doing it because it would set me back $70! Well, it looks like I'm not going to have to buy it because Andrew is having a special screening at his house tonight and he was nice enough to invited me to come watch it. So now I can see the series without having to buy it! Yay! If it turns out to suck I'm going to cry. Mostly because there is now ink in my eye by partly because I made such a big deal about seeing it.

Losers are the coolest people in the world
Stuck in my head: "Six feet from the edge"-Creed
I am: relaxed
You remember how in elementry school, how important it felt to be picked to play dodge ball? How the losers and winners were always determained by who was picked first and last? Do you remember how stupid that was?? Honestly a person can't go through life without experiencing that atleast once just because there will always be jerks to push someone around. Everyone has been the loser at one time or another but you really don't have to be the loser. No one should ever have the ability to make you feel like crap. That only happens if you give them that power. You control how you feel.
Example: Ashley has been pushed around by this one teacher all year long. He didn't give her the right part in the play. He's a total jerk to her. He makes her do his bidding and overall makes her life a living hell. If I were in her situation I would have had a mental break down by now but somehow she has found a way to gain control of all that. She doesn't let him control her feelings. Instead of making the situation worse by complaining about it all the time she ends up finding a positive in it all. Ashley rocks because of that!
Anyway I just wanted to prove a point. Jerks will always be jerks but that doesn't mean that you have to let them control your life.
'night!

Art teachers will be the death of me
Stuck in my head: "Blame" by Cadet
I am: Pissed off and yet still happy at the same time
ARG! My art teacher is making me come back to school on the 24th for her final because I have an A-. Yes, you read that correctly. I have an A- in ART!! I am so ticked off right now. I think my face is red from anger.
When she told me that I'd have to take the final I asked her what grade I had. Her irratiated response was
I start MIT-Training (or for those of you who have no idea what those letters stand for ....manager-in-training-training) today. Everyone has been coming up to me and asking me what I'm going to wear. Even Chad asked me (which is weird beyond all belief). I think i told two people last night that I was wearing "clothes" when they asked. They didn't think it was as funny as I did. Hmm.
I'm excited but I feel like I really shouldn't show it. I mean it's great that I'm getting promoted but I don't want to throw it in other people's faces. That's just not cool man. Just not cool.
Speaking of Chad...the other night, over the walkie-takie, he said,
Oh! Before I end this tiny post, I want to recommend that everyone listen to "blame" by Cadet. Then, when you're finished with that song, you should listen to Cadet's entire CD. Then send them lots and lots of money along with notes saying that you don't want them to break up.
I was listening to that song in my car last night and it hit me who that song reminds me of. We, and when I say "we" I mean I, shall refer to this person as X because the name really ain't that important (and don't try to guess who it is because most likely you're wrong. MUHAHHAHAHAHA lol!), what's important is that I found their theme song lol. Anyway "X" is up and down like a roller coaster. One min. they're mad, then sad, then ticked at random stupid stuff, then moderately happy, then ticked off again. Most of the time they're mad. Only the Lord knows why. Those types of people get on my nerves. Some people get so caught up in the small stuff that they forget about all the things that they've been blessed with.
So yeah. I can pretty much assign a theme song to anyone. In fact my next post shall be a list of my friends and their theme songs. YAY!

When she told me that I'd have to take the final I asked her what grade I had. Her irratiated response was
"Laura you only have an A-". First of all, the whole school knows the rule for Sr.s is that if you have an A (minus or not) you don't have to take the final. It's the teachers way of giving the Sr.s a break. Second of all, my entire family is coming up on the 24th for graduation and we're supposed to have a little get together then!! I am an excellent student and therefore deserve a straight A. I do darn it!

Speaking of Chad...the other night, over the walkie-takie, he said,
"LOL"He didn't say "laughing out loud. He said "L-O-L." It was hillarious. I called him a dork. He had no decent come back. I couldn't stop laughing for like an hour.

One min. they're mad, then sad, then ticked at random stupid stuff, then moderately happy, then ticked off again. Most of the time they're mad. Only the Lord knows why. Those types of people get on my nerves. Some people get so caught up in the small stuff that they forget about all the things that they've been blessed with.
So yeah. I can pretty much assign a theme song to anyone. In fact my next post shall be a list of my friends and their theme songs. YAY!

But...but...I want it NOW
Stuck in my head: "Not guilty" by the Beatles
I am: regretful, amused, and tired all at the same time
Lol people fight over the stupidest of things. Seriously! In a perfect world, people would look at each other, say a few sentences in an agressive tone and then go back to normal. I think that my dream of this

"perfect argument"is possible. For instance, today I really wanted my Sandman issue 1 comic back that I had lent to Natalie mostly because someone else would like to borrow it. Now everyone must understand I am VERY attached to my books. They are like my children (I know it's a sick attachment). Anyway I called Nat last night and asked her to bring it today. Unfortunately she forgot. So I admit I got a bit agressive with my tone and asked her to bring it to my house after school. Of course my aggressiveness only cause her to become agressive and as you can imagine there were ill feelings by the end of the conversation. My point is that Natalie and I can have this sort of "argument" and get over it. Why? Because we're mature enough to realize that a stupid graphic novel is not worth fighting over. We're not going to run off and start talking about how the other person sucks because there would be no point!! It's a freakin' graphic novel!! I have already gotten over the fact that she didn't bring it and now can admit that I was over-reacting. See? This is how everyday life SHOULD BE. Unlike in other enviroments where friends fight then talk about each other behind their backs and blah blah blah. Natalie and I already delt with that Sophmore year. It's not as fun as the brochure promises.

Wispered words and that sort of thing
Stuck in my head: "Play that funky music white boy..."
I am: slightly less annoyed but still annoyed
Natalie just came in the journalism room and wispered to me to come into the band room during lunch. Uck, the band room. I have spent way too much time in there already (I mean I dedicated a year of my high school life to band!).
I saw an episode of X-Files last night that had never seen (obviously from a later season) and I was shocked at how horrible it was! #1 there was no plot and #2 Mulder went insane at the end! I believe one of the final quotes was
On a crapiness scaled from 1 to 10 this one was a solid 9!

I asked her "what's in the band room?"
She replied "pizza and cake." Yeah that's all I needed to know.

"it's like he's in coma only he's awake and his brain is functioning. I would say that he's suffered a seizure only his brain waves indicate that he hasn't."Then, to make things worse, they introduce this new chacter, a female doctor, who appearently is sleeping with Mulder. AND SCULLY DOESN'T KNOW!! ::gasp:: How stupid is that?! He's awake but in a coma? He's sleeping with random women? Come on people!

I swear if that noodle falls on my head...
Stuck in my head: Dream On by Aerosmith
I am: annoyed
I am in the library center...for outdoor living...doing nothing....again. I am hidden myself in the young adult section once again so that I may read my graphic novels and play on the computer in peace. It's quite nice. It gets my mind off of ANNOYING PEOPLE WHO WON'T SHUT UP. I keep looking up to see this sculpture of a bunch of pool noodles intertwined with a bunch of hola-hoops. I've very afraid of it falling on my head. Pray for me.
I'm regreting not bringing in my sketch book at the moment because I had this white colored pencil on black paper, piece that I'm re-doing that I'd like to finish this week. It's all that's been on my mind the past 2 days. I wanted to finish/start it yesterday in journalism, since my pages are all turned in, but something came up that I had to attend to first. Grr. I really shouldn't "grr" at that. I did agree to help out even though I REALLY just wanted a day off. Oh well. There shouldn't be anything that needs to be done today so maybe I can work on some art.
I did get a chance to play an exciting game of spoons yesterday. I almost won too but then Brandon had to be a jerk and claw his way to first place. Grr Brandon. Grr. David and I decorated some of the plastic spoons afterwards. I must say yesterday was the first time I had ever seen a "peturbed" spoon. David is a wiz with those weird faces!
I gave Kristin the Harry Potter 3 trailer that I save from the trash. It was so funny because she wasn't sure what it was at first. Then she read the lable on the film and she got this huge smile on her face. There is just something so rewarding about making someone's day. I should try and save another HP3 trailer for Katelyn.
ACK! Brandon just took my picture!! DARN HIM! I must go steal the camera out of his hands and make him pay.
Later!

Ode to projector #4
Oh, projector number four,
standing there on the cold unswept floor,
I want to treasure you and show you love,
an emotion I have found that you are quite void of.
Oh why won't you stop brian-wrapping on me?
I love you, I need you (and this job), can't you see???
Your focus knob is broken,
Your masking won't open.
You apature plate slips out.
Geeze, now what is this sound problem I hear about?
Oh, Projector number four,
Oh Why God, Oh Why God? No MORE!

"I'm a paper bag!"
ROFL!!
So yesterday I was walking by concession and I saw this paper bag on the counter and for some reason I got the urge to walk over, make the opening of the bag move like a mouth while I said in the creepiest voice possible
This morning I couldn't find my sketch book and I started FLIPPING OUT!! I tore everything in my room apart and screaming at the dogs, as if that would help. I even called my mom to ask her if she could call KHS and tell them that I would be late to school. The funny thing is that right after my room was in shambles I found it. I eyed it as I was tearing apart the couch across the room. It was staring at me from the corner of my desk. I believe it was mocking me. Just like projector #4.

"I'm a paper bag!"(darn you Hannah and those stupid banana comercials). Well I walked into the back room laughing like crazy and Michael U. looks at me and said what kind of crack have you been smoking?"(which is a very good question considering I was laughing about a paper bag...yes people...a paper bag) and Alyson responed for me with a kind "The same kind that you do." It was great!! Alyson rocks. It's been decided.

And then I said "Aww Hell no!"
I had a super time in projection today! I got to use this little ear piece that connects to the walkie talkie so I felt pretty cool. Although Chad said I looked like Daniel G.(I would attempt to spell his last name but I would fail miserably). Then Lori said that I kind of looked like Daniel G. too but only because I was wearing the ear piece. Lori tried to make me feel better by saying that at least I looked like I was doing something important by wearing it.
4.He looks awesome in tight grey shirts.
3.He makes all sorts of oober cool sci-fi movies.

Oh ye of little faith
Ack. My hand is swelling! This is what I get for taking my anger out on the splicer last night! Hehe...I guess smashing it down (to cut the tape) that hard does have its disadvantages. Great. Now there is a large bump on my palm. Chad will probably laugh at me. Yay for swelling!
Man, I was so ticked off last night. You must understand that I don't curse. I NEVER CURSE. I'm weird like that. I just think there are so many prettier words to use. Well anyway, I used TWO REALLY bad curse words last night. I feel rotten about doing that but I was so mad!! I ended up getting into my car and listening to some "SuperChick", which made everything better. ::sigh::
Prom is tonight. Yay for prom!

Video Game night
Memorable moments:
"I'm a banana!"-Hannah
"Your baby voice scares me Hannah" -Natalie
"Those Mario Kart churches are too harsh for me."-Natalie
"I'd totally buy an apple computer if they had Jeff Goldblum on one of their comercials saying 'must go faster must go faster'."-Laura
"Yeah...see they're home schooled and their only text book is the bible."-Hannah

Hehe. I will pray for those who have to find my house.
Alison is coming over to my house today. Let's hope that she doesn't fall asleep and forget to come or even worse....get lost on the forbidden weaver road ::plays dramatic music::! Haha I can hear the phone conversation now "Umm Laura...I'm seeing a lot of trees. Where do I go now?"
I have to pick up Ashley around 3 and then take her home at 5. She was almost afraid to ask me to haul her around for the day mostly because she knows how much I hate playing "car pool." I told her that me picking her up was evening the score for all those times that I made her waste her gas for me. Like the time I made her drive me to the National Cemetery because I wanted to break in my New/Old camera. Or the time I made her drive us all to the Albino Farm because I wanted to give Tamila the scare of her life.

Dead cats and such
I hate Natalie... and this is why...

WHY GOD, WHY??
http://www.livejournal.com/users/ilblissli/20266.html?view=13866
WHY GOD, WHY??
Just call me the fly that hits your windshield at 45 MPH
Last night, Chad gave me a high five and said "Congrats on being able to tell me what to do" (referring to a recent promotion I have received at work) and it really didn't hit me that I'm going to be higher up on the "food chain." It's weird. Infact I feel weird talking about it with anyone but Becca *who also is being promoted. I guess it's because I have this awful fear that this promotion will cause an uproar. I want people to see this as a positive thing because I don't want to be the cause of new drama. I only want good things to happen for the Springfield 8.
Another thing that hit me today was the fact that Prom is Friday. It's so weird because usually I hate formal dances but this one I'm kind of excited about. Weeeeeird.
Hannah, Natalie, and I's awesome survey is coming along nicely. We just hit question #9. I don't mean to brag but, I think we are the best survey writers in the world.
Yay, Ashley, Nathalie and I (yes I spelled that N-A-T-H-A-L-I-E because it's not Natty J. its the F.E.S. Nathalie from Sweden) are hanging out at MY house tomorrow. I'm VERY EXCITED. I think I'm going to try and start up a "video game day" with them and possibly invite Hannah, Natalie, Alison, Katelyn, and Kristen. It'll be a "Kickapoo Girls who like to Game" thing. It'll rock.
Random Questions
What's up with the old lady screaming and then kissing Tom Cruise in Minority Report? That was just unnecessary and icky. Really it was.
What's with Agatha screaming "run" in Minority Report? It was totally quiet time!
Why can't we all have cool weapons like they had in Minority Report? Then life would be 10 times easier!
