A Fun Day At Home

So, I started off the morning in the usual way, AKA watching netflix. Then I got up and got dressed, then made some coffee and checked tumblr and facebook. And what the heck do I find all over my tumblr dash? Crap about the stalker girl who called Benedict Cumberbatch's hotel room. Okay, so they should be more careful about hotel security when celebrities are staying there. And people should stop being fangirly about people. At least learn to treat celebrities like normal people. And that's all I have to say about that.

Blogger was also giving me problems this morning. The pages didn't want to load correctly. But, eventually, I got it to work.

Currently, I'm listening to Cabin Pressure while I blog. I love the radio show. Its amazingly hilarious. Puddin' is having fun finding random things to chew on with her sharp little puppy teeth in the mean time.

Today I'm going to put on my henna tattoo that I designed the other day. I wanted to do it yesterday, but I had to do homework and I ran out of time. I have a picture of the rough draft on instagram, and I'll upload a pic of the final product when I'm done.

I'm beginning to realize how uninteresting my life is. I have no idea why people read what I say. But, nonetheless, don't stop.

I have also realized how lonely my life is too. I literally only talked to two people other than my family while I was at church yesterday. And I'm not explicitly trying not to associate with people, but I really stink at starting up conversations and no one else seems to want to talk to me. I talked to Sarah, who is my best friend and she and I are co-teachers of a sunday school class. Oh, and then the preacher came by and said hello and shook my hand. And church and the internet are the only places that I talk to people and socialize these days. I mean, I know that I really don't like to talk to and be around many of the people that I know. I really miss my drama friends. At least they would tolerate me. And I miss acting. I can't wait for my next snow white gig, because I will get to perform, in a way.

I fear that an actress is lost without her theatre. And even an introvert likes to have friends.

Henna Tattoo

So, ever since I was in like 9th grade, I have wanted to get a henna tattoo. Its basically a grown-up version of a temporary tattoo. It uses different substances to stain the skin and the design lasts for about two weeks, depending.

The other day, I went to the craft store and they had a ton of stuff on sale (cheap stuff, yay!), one of which was a henna tattoo kit. Now, because henna is a Hindu type thing that relates to marriage and whatnot, I'm not going to do any of the designs that people typically do with henna.

Today,I finally designed my own henna tattoo that I am going to create with the kit that I bought. It is a pair of fairy wings, which as four parts. On the wings there are a triforce symbol (top left), a TARDIS (top right), a magnifying glass with 221B in the lens (bottom left), and the Harry Potter deathly hallows symbol. The empty spaces in the wings are filled with little swirly designs. Under the picture is a Peter Pan quote that says "To love would be an awfully big adventure" in fancy lettering.

I took a sharpie pen and drew it on my wrist a little while ago to see if it would work, and I love it. I'm totally ready to put it on my arm. However, I have church tomorrow, and I don't want to freak out everyone too much. IDK. I might do it anyway.

And I know that I will have extra henna paste left over, so I googled how to save it. It turns out that you can put it in an airtight container and freeze it and it will keep for a few months. I'm super excited.

I also need to read and work on my stuff for history and theatre that are due tomorrow. I guess that I am going to do the tattoo right now and then start on the work after I do it. BLECH. I wish that I had weekends off from school I also wish that there wasn't so much reading for my classes. I have three different books for history and just one book for each of the three other classes (not counting the MLA book for English).

Who in the world wants to die alone, all dried up in the desert sun...

Sorry, "Some Nights" by FUN is on my Pandora station right now, so I felt like I had to include the lyrics in some way.

This morning, I got up and stalked people on Facebook and Tumblr and watched some anime on Netflix. Then, I took a shower and got dressed, then gave Puddin' a bath. She was rather disgusting. Then, I had coffee and made chocolate chip scones from scratch. They were delicious, but even though I made half of what the original recipe said to, I still ended up with too many. I need someone to eat the goodies that I make. Then I started on my math homework, which is due today. I'm about 3/4 done. There are some that I need help on though, which is hindering my progress.

So, yesterday, I spent quite a bit of time writing the book that I am working on. I am up to about 8 pages now. I really enjoy the writing process, and writing in a word processor makes it even better. I would occasionally take breaks to get on Tumblr or Facebook or walk the dog or daydream about the boy that I have accidentally fallen for. In other words, I didn't do nearly as much writing as I meant to, but I still had a good time.

Tonight, I have to go to my brother's football game. Well, he's not a football player, but he plays in the band, which means that he marches at the games. Which means that we have to go and watch him, but we also have to watch the game. Personally, I really hate sports and I really hate football and I don't enjoy watching or being around cheerleaders. I think I might bring a book or something to entertain myself today. Not to mention, our football team isn't that great. And, I have to go to pretty much every home game this year and many away games. I think I'll get plenty of football, even if I don't want to.

So, if you live in the area and feel like coming to the High School's away game and helping me entertain myself, feel free to find me. I'll be the girl in glasses with red hair and a pink backpack sitting in the stands and paying very little attention to the game. Oh, and I might occasionally go to the concession stand to retrieve snacks and drinks, because that's what I do. I'm the messenger girl because I don't care about missing the game.

I would really like to meet up with the guy that I like, but I'm pretty sure that he won't be at the game, not to mention he has no clue that I like him. Blech. My life can be so lonely and lame sometimes, but the thing is, I've grow used to it. Oh, well. Back to math homework.

Update: I finished my math work and submitted it. For some reason, I couldn't do the assignment, because it was due at lunchtime, so I missed it, but that's okay because its not a grade. I made a 70 on the quiz and I feel a little bad about that, but at least its passing! College Algebra is difficult.

Vashta Nerada

So, this morning I was sitting there, in our big blue chair, watching television with a puppy in my lap. My parents and brothers had already left, so I was alone. I was just watching tv in the dark, you know? Minding my own business. And then my brain decided to remember the terrifying but nerdy dream that I had last night. And for about thirty seconds, I was freaking out, until I realized that the scary thing in my dream doesn't really exist, thank God.

Last night, I had a dream that my family and I were sitting in the dining room in the house that we used to live in. Half of the room was dark because we had the lights off, but there was some light coming in from outside. And as I walk through the shadows, I can feel these things grabbing my ankles and pulling me into the darkness. At first, I think that its just my imagination. Then one of them really does grab me and knock me down and start pulling me into the darkness when I realize that these are some form of Vashta Nerada, the shadow creatures from Doctor Who. Only, in the dream, they're real. And I make it out of their grasp and I go tell my mom, who is just sitting there, talking to my dad or somebody a few feet away. And she doesn't believe me. She says that its just my imagination and that there aren't any monsters in the shadows. And I know that she's wrong. So she tells me that I should just stay away from the shadows if it's such a big deal. So, I walk into a different room, and I'm avoiding the shadows as I go to do something, then I look over and the shadows are getting bigger and closer. So I go back into the dining room, and my mom still doesn't believe me that something is there. And the freaking Vashta Nerada knock me down again and begin pulling me into the darkness to kill me and no one is noticing that I'm about to DIE. And there isn't a tenth doctor or anyone coming to save me. And then the dream ends. Fade out. Boom, its morning.

I was literally scared to death in that dream. I have never had a doctor who related dream and it scares me that my first dream that was related to Doctor Who was like that. And the doctor wasn't there and no on e was trying to help me, which made it terrifying.

Anyway, I posted about having this dream on facebook and a guy that I kind of like liked my status. And I had a mini facebook stalking session for about ten minutes before I started reading my English textbook this morning. I'm such a freak.

Busy Day

So, today I am blogging a bit earlier than normal because I'm not taking my hour or so to sleep in the big blue chair with the dog this morning. No, today she gets to sleep while I get stuff done.

Last night, I had the idea to burn a mix CD, so that was the first thing on the agenda. And that's done now.

I have to clean out Puddin's cage before lunchtime. I also have to get a shower and get dressed to got to the movies with Sarah. I have to be ready to go before 1:00. I also need to work a little on my english work. Its due tomorrow. I have no problem with actually doing it tomorrow, but I would like to get a little further along in my notes by the end of the day.

I am super hungry but I have a little puppy dog sleeping in my lap and a laptop hovering above her. Thankfully, she had a bath this morning, so I don't have to worry about giving her one. She really needed it.

I got a bit further on my story yesterday. I have about 5 pages now. I'm also jumping around in the story. It kind of works better for me than just writing chapter after chapter. I can put ideas in without writing them down first or worrying about forgetting them.

I'm also in love with an artist called "Lancifer" right now. He's a christian singer and musician. His music is really pop-ish and fun. I'm listening to Negative Nancy, We Bring the Party, and Bring the Bass on repeat right now. I love the songs so much.And it doesn't hurt that he's adorable too.

I think that I might incorporate them into a video in the near future.

Chore Day Tuesday

Because yesterday was Labor Day, my parents and brothers didn't have to go to school. So, we spent the whole day pretty much at the property. I had to spend part of the morning working on a math assignment though. That was not bueno at all. Some of the problems, I would work out and get an answer and it would be wrong, then I would let an ipad app work it out and get an answer and it would be wrong. I am pretty sure that there are mistakes in the curriculum.

One of the problems was "find two numbers that add together to be ten and multiply to get 23." This is an impossible problem. No two numbers multiply to make 23. 7 and 3 make 21, and 4 and 6 make 24. This is as close as you can get. Its absolutely impossible. So, on my first quiz in College Algebra, I made a 72, all because it was an 8 question quiz and I missed like 2 and the quiz requested answers that didn't exist.

Anyway, I started on a new novel yesterday. Its about a girl with a terminal illness. Cancer, to be exact. But it's not focused on the cancer. Its NOT a cancer book. I can't stand cancer books. Too sad and sappy. This is a sad book, but its not that kind of book.

This morning, I got a bit of a late start. I spent too much time this morning watching netflix. Then, within a period of about 8 minutes, the time that it took for me to get dressed, Puddin' pooped on the floor twice and peed on the floor once. I was about ready to ring her little neck. So, I put her in the living room and closed the area off, then washed some clothes and dishes.

I avoided doing any chores during the three day weekend, but I was actually rather surprised at how much stuff piled up. I mean, we used plastic cups and paper plates and ate out two times, but there was still a sink full of dishes and a ton of clothes to wash. So, during my time alone today, I get to wash all of them and try to get ahead on my school work.

I have to get at least a day ahead on everything in order to go out tomorrow. My best friend, Sarah, and I are going to the movies tomorrow. I have an AMC giftcard that I got for graduation that I still haven't spent, plus we could both use a day to get out of the house and have some girl time.

So, wish me luck on the new novel idea.

So, I have a website now, and I'm rather excited about it. Basically, it is a home base for all of my internet doings from blogging to music to youtube to the special project. Feel free to go check it out. I spent quite a bit of time on it. I'll be blogging for real again on monday. See you then!
