2 questions

What most excites you about the way you're living your life right now?   
Right now, there is nothing really exciting about the way I'm living my life.  I'm still in high school, so what I do and how I do it, when I do it, it's all really limited, and restricted.  I can't just do whatever I want. 

What are you most looking forward to this weekend?
This weekend is PROM!!!  Oh god I'm so excited.  Tomorrow I have a nail appointment at 11:00 am, and I have a hair appointment at 1:30 pm.  Our theme is Romance in Spring.  I'm super excited.  I've been helping decorate, and it's absolutely beautiful.  I'll be sure to take pics tonight.

Well I've got to do some last minute things before I go decorate.  

<3 megan!

What is your definition of cheating?

What is your definition of cheating? 

My definition of cheat on your significant other is kind of fickle.  I would say that any sexual or extreme emotional attatchment to or with someone else would be cheating.  Flirting isn't cheating if you don't act on it.  Of course if you're flirting all the time and you can't control it you have a problem.  Keeping stuff from me even if it isn't that bad.  If you think you need to keep it from me, then you shouldn't be doing it.  Stuff like that.  I don't mind if the guy I'm dating has girls as friends.  Just don't lie.

My definition of cheating in school is somewhat hypocritical.   On homework, cheating would be copying someone elses answers.  Cheating on tests would be having some aid that puts you at an advantage over the other test takers.  Yeah, I copy, and I cheat.  Oh well.

Post make-up for the days I was gone.

 

What would you like to do more of?
There are a lot of things I would like to do more of.  Travel is one of them.  I really like to go to new places.  I would like to relax more.  That would be nice.  I do pretty much what I want with the exception of anything that costs money.

Have you ever experienced road rage?
Not really.  I don't really get too mad.  I may yell out, but I don't get violent and I don't intentionally drive different because of my mood...unless I'm late lol.

What are your neighbors like?
I don't really have neighbors.  And the ones I do have don't go outside, or aren't close enough for it to matter.  I like in a rural area so I don't have to worry about it.

Have you ever been skinny dipping?
No.  I probably never will.  I'm extremely self concious about my body.

What do you want to be famous for?
I don't really want to be famous, but rich would be nice.  lol.  Maybe inventing something that helps out mankind.

What do you do EVERY day to take care of the earth's environment? What could you do more of?
I don't do anything specific to help out the earth.  That's really bad and I know it.  Some things I could do are shutting the water off when I shave my legs.  I could take a cloth tote to the store instead of using their plastic and paper bags, and I could recycle more.  I usually recycle my paper at school.

If you could travel in time, which era would you visit and why?

If you could travel in time, which era would you visit and why? 

If I were to travel in time I would have to be very careful.  Because when I don't like something, I say so.  Women were super refined back in the day, and I don't want to be accused of witchery or anything else.  So I probably wouldn't go too far back.  Maybe the 60-80's  I was thinking 60's because of how they dress and how simple everything was.  The 80's because who wouldn't want to smoke pot all day and have no one care?  But I'm definately leaning towards the 60's 
 
ONE DAY UNTIL D.C.

What's keeping you from your dream job?

What's keeping you from your dream job?

What is keeping me from my job?  A lot of things, let me tell you.  Oh dear where to start...  My dream job...  Ever since I can remember I've wanted to be a doctor of some sort.  Not just a doctor who sits in her office all day listening to people complain that their head hurts or that they have a cough.  No, I want to be a surgeon.  No a surgeon who does lame things like knee or hip replacements.  I want to be a neurological surgeon.  I want to be able to cut into someones head and save their life.  Maybe discover someting new that can help so many people...  And my other dream job is a plastic surgeon.  I don't know what I want to do more neurological or cosmetic.  I think that being able to make people happy, to make them be the person that they want to be, that they want to see in the mirror and not just in their minds...  I think it's a beautiful thing.  Yeah okay, so maybe it isn't what god intended.  But he gave us the technology to do it, so I don't see the problem.  Now my biggest problem with this occupation, my dream job, is that I don't have the grades for it.  I'm not stupid by any means, I just don't have the best grades.  Another problem is that I don't have the money to go to med school.  It's sooo expensive, and I don't have the money.  Another thing keeping me from my dream job is the little part of me in the back of my head saying that maybe I don't want to go away for college, that maybe I'm a little afraid to be away from my family, to be away from the familiar surroundings...

What happened the first time you were left home alone as a child?

 What happened the first time you were left home alone as a child?

I'm not really sure what happened.  I was never really left at home because I always like to go places.  But a more recent time...  It was my brother, sister, and I.  We were watching meet the robinsons and all of a sudden we hear this like knocking on the sliding glass windows.  Because its like this ...   there are two sliding glass windows and my sister was laying on the couch, and I was sitting in the chair infront of the other glass door.  So we freak out because no one likes to hear weird noises when they are home without parents.  So we just calmly go back to watching our movie.  So after a while I was like.... maybe we should call mom and dad....  So I did and they practically laughed at me. :[  Sad I know.  Well turns out it was the rocking chair outside the window, the wind was blowing hard I guess...  lame.  And another time, I didn't know my dog liked to knock on the window with his tail when he wanted in so I hear a knocking noise and I freak out.  Becuase I guess he was on the hot tub cover and I thought it was a person, so I call my grandma and she and grandpa come down.  Ugh.  Not very good.  In the end I felt like a retard, but I wanted to be safe. you know?

What do you love about where you live?

What do you love about where you live?

I love a lot of things about where I live.  One of them is that it's sort of in the country, more rural part of town.  Far enough to where its really quiet, but close enough there it only takes a few minutes to get into town.  My town in really small so things like drugs and gangs and all that violence are really toned down...well maybe not the drugs...but everything else.  It's kind of boring, but I know that I can't get into to too much trouble here...so yeah.


off to take my ACTs...

What was the last great epiphany you had?

What was the last great epiphany you had?

The last great epiphany I had was about life.  I suppose they usually are.  I just realised that I could be trying so much harder in everything I do.  I was lying in bed and I thought to myself..."I want to practice...I want to get better"  but then I realised that even though I want to, I don't.  I also thought about college.  Next year is my senior year.  The last year because I have to be independent.  How frightening.  I have to go to college and get a job.  I've never had a job before!  I don't like talking to people I don't know, and talking infront of classes practically makes my hyperventalate.  It's ridiculous, I know, maybe I'm making it seem more than what it is, but I live in a house with 4 other people, 3 cats and a dog.  I'm not used to being by myself.  My family is always homem, like, I've never had to be alone.  Yeah so...that was my epiphany...and a major part of life that's causing me stress right now.

Moving on.  Today wasn't too bad.  I have to take my ACT's tomorrow, and I have to be there before 8 am.  ew.  I didn't even study for it.  Ugh, I need to start caring more, because I'm going to fail.  obvi.  Sunday I'm going to get my dress fixed.  My grandma is pretty awesome with her sewing skills.  

In may I have to give a 5 minute speech about the Bush vs. Gore election, and I have to have a tri-fold.  I fucking hate talking in front of classes.  It's so shitty, and I'm going to suck so much.  

So Mr. Pallada said Whitney Stone will not be our instructor.  He's thinking about asking Brayton to still write our work.  That's all.  He just wants him to write, and then be done with the season.  Then he will hire someone to be our full time instructor and clean and stuff.  He's thinking about Nick Bledso.  I haven't written about him on here yet, but I've wrote about him on my old journal on GJ.  He wasn't very good with technique, and I kid you not, hes the gayest little man I've ever seen, hes funny though.  I kinda hope it is...  I dunno, I really just hope Brayton comes back.  No one else wants him back.  I would love nothing more than to have him teach me.  Because I want to be good enough to be in his independent winterguard Usurpation.  

Anyways I better go to be because I have to be up so so so early!

What secret (your or someone else's) do you wish you'd done a better job of keeping?

What secret (your or someone else's) do you wish you'd done a better job of keeping?

I'm not really sure if I've ever leaked a secret?  I usually really good at keeping secrets.  So I don't really have anything for this lol, maybe I'll do another one when I get home from school.

What's your least favorite chore?

What's your least favorite chore?

At the high risk of sounding like a spoiled kid...I don't do many chores unless I have to.  When it's cold I have to haul wood into the basement, because we have a wood burning stove.  I hate it so much.  I don't clean my room, I don't like to do it.  I don't see why MY room has to be cleaned even if other people don't ever have to be in there but me.  Yeah, sounds a little ridiculous to me.  I don't mind cleaning my pool because I get sun, but I hate hate hate doing things when I'm not in the mood.  If I'm not in the mood don't ask me to do it, because I will bitch the whole time.

What is your favorite quote? And why?

What is your favorite quote? And why?

     My favorite quote is a tie between "Freedom has a way of destroying things" by Scott Westerfeld in the book Specials, and the quote "I'm selfish, I'm impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." By Marilyn Monroe.  
     The reason I like the freedom quote so much is because it's so true.  We here in the United States can practically get away with murder.  Well...figuratively.  We as the human race use up the resources that this earth has.  We ruin the ozone, the oceans, we litter the grounds.  We have the freedom to do what we want...but at what cost?  Our freedom has destroyed our earth slowly, and it's still going.  
     The reason I like the Marilyn quote is because it's very close to how I feel.  I'm selfish, extremely impatient, very insecure, and honestly, who doesn't make mistakes?  I can't really say I'm out of control, but I can be hard to handle.  If you can't be bothered to be around when I'm at my worst, to help me get through my problems, why on earth would you think I would want you as a friend.  Friends are supposed to be there for each other, and in the same token, boyfriends/girlfriends as well.

What do you most hate sharing with other people?

What do you most hate sharing with other people? 

I hate sharing a lot things.  One of the biggest things though are CD's.  I refuse to let anyone borrow CD's because I've seen how people treat their cd's and just throw them around and let them get scratched.  It's one of my biggest pet peeves.  Another thing I don't like sharing is clothing.  Guard members are notorious for borrowing and not giving back.  Bitches.  B still has my white heart bikini....She's had it since last summer.  But she "can't find it"...I don't think she's looking all the hard.

Annie is FINALLY over.  God I'm so happy.  I official have nothing to do, and I'm loving it.  I just get to relax and read and stuff.  Unfortunately my head is pounding right now.  ugh I hate this.  My mp3 player has officially died.  How sad :(    I've been looking online for good japanese recipes, and I've found a few good ones.  I'm a little unsure about the japanese rice, it sounds like a lot of work.  But I've decided to start cooking elaborate meals now that I don't have anything to do.

Why do you think it is some people don't get along with you?

Why do you think it is some people don't get along with you?

Most people usually get along with me.  I'm more of a mediator, and I try to keep everyone happy.  When people and I disagree its usually because we've been around each other for too long.  It's usually because we're both super stubborn, and no one likes to be proved wrong you know?  But I haven't been in a serious fight with a friend since like 7th grade.  I hate drama so much, I would do almost anything to defuse a bad situation.


TODAY IS THE LAST PERFORMANCE!!!  It starts at 2, but I have to be there at 12.

How are your Saturday nights different now than they were five years ago?

How are your Saturday nights different now than they were five years ago? 

Oh god...they aren't different at all.  I feel so lame.  I do nothing on saturday nights.  Unless it's during fall or winter guard, and then I'm away at competitions all day, and I'm usually on my way home at night.  Lame I know.


Anyways, leaving to go perform!  I'm not really excited.  I just don't like this musical.

What was the last thing you "got away with?"

What was the last thing you "got away with?"

Yay and this is where I get to make my self sound like a criminal lol.  Well I've snuck a bottle of rum into my room that my parents don't know about.  I've been drinking their tequila...that they don't know about.  I steal sometimes, but mainly make-up...that shit is expensive.  I cheat a lot on homework.  Yeah maybe I'm a terrible person....but eh, I'm not worried.

Yeah so now that I've made myself sound like an alcoholic and a criminal onto more important stuff.  

TONIGHT WAS OPENING NIGHT!!!!!  It went really really well.  I'm so happy.  I just hope it gets better all weekend.

Spring Cleaning

Are you planning on doing any spring cleaning this year? If so, please share a cleaning tip you swear by.

Well, over spring break I had planned to clean my carpet in my room and bathroom.  I never got around to it, but I would still like to do that.  Now truthfully I don't like to clean, I probably detest it, but if I get into the mood, then I'm really good.  I don't have any tips yet...

If I were independently wealthy...

If you were independently wealthy, where in the world would you live and how would you spend your time?

Hm.  If I were independently wealthy, I would probably finish high school first...but then I would travel a lot.  I've always wanted to travel.  I haven't been anywhere except surrounding states, so I would travel and then pick the place I would live.  After I'm done traveling, I would probably spend my time donating to charities, and stuff.  I'm not going to lie, I might be a little selfish and go on a shopping spree.  But mainly, I would help people before I bought anything too ostentatious.

What is the best April Fools' day joke you've ever fallen victim to?

What is the best April Fools' Day joke you've ever fallen victim to?

Well, I've never really fallen victim to any really good jokes.  Most people here aren't that imaginative to make up any good jokes.  I've pulled a few good ones though.  I remember when I was little I got on my school bus, and I was like "Beth, your tire is getting flat."  And she was like freaking out.  Haha, I think I was only in like 3rd grade.  But I hate April fools, because you never know if people are serious or joking, but its the worst holiday-ish tradition thing to me.

Lmao, so much for doing these every day.  This week is production week.  I'm super busy and stressed out already and its only Tuesday.  Ugh.  Well I better get to bed.


love love love

What do you think is too serious to joke about?

Alright, so I decided I'm going to start doing these every day.  I hardly ever post, and it will definately boost that.  So yes onto the question.

What is too serious to joke about?  I truthfully think that there is very little you can't joke about, and given the right time and setting nothing is too serious.  I mean, if you go into a room of people you barely know, you are not going to go up to a person and throw out black jokes and gay jokes.  No, you make little jabs at the weather, or you know stuff like that.  Okay maybe not the weather, but you know what I mean.  If you know what certain people are sensitive to then you can avoid the akward thoughts of "Oh shit, was that too serious for this person....maybe I shouldn't have said that."  So maybe it isn't a matter of whats to serious to joke about, but what some people can handle, and their personal opinions on certain subjects.  I know black people who are ok with black jokes, and I know gays who are okay with gay jokes.  It really just depends on the people, given the right environment, rape can be funny, but it's not like you ever really mean it.  If you mean it, then it's obviously not funny.  But you have to make sure that the context you're using said jokes in is the correct one, because truthfully, I wouldn't want to get my ass kicked because I told an off color joke that someone couldn't handle.

Yay my first one!  How exciting.
