My Fashion Sense is Way Out of wHaCk

A new biography off me:

I know myself better than a lot of people think a newly turned teenager would.
And I'm so much more accepting of it.

I'm a strange person. Let's say that off the bat. Today I dyed my black hair with purple and red streaks.
My fashion sense is way out of WhAcK. I love a mixture of Punk, Emo/Goth, Smart-Kid, and Vintage. Converse are my favorite shoes. Some of my favorite brands are BP., Converse(Again.), and Rubbish.
I don't wear heels. They hurt my feet.

A lot of people say I'm an old soul. I believe them. Some people say I'm smarter than my age. I say, "Depends on what subject." I love big words.
When I grow up, I want to be an author. That's been my dream since 3rd grade. In 6th we got an assignment to write a story. Most people wrote 5-10 pages. I wrote 42.
I love words. But I suck at grammar. I also tend to dislike writing in full sentences. But I also don't use abbreviations when I text, and usually when I type.

I am a strange person.

I have two best friends. One is sometimes Goth, but I can never figure out whether or not she likes it when I say she is. She doesn't want to be labeled and I get that.
The other one is a real nut job. If you've read my work here before you've heard her write, and stories of her.
On this blog, her name is Infublo.

I'm a little American girl who wishes she was and feels like she is a Brit.
I use words like nutter and brilliant.
Fish and chips are one of my favorite foods, and I consider them to be a single entity.
In my book, British fantasy is its own genre.
Once upon a time is one of the best word combinations there is. Sometimes cliches are ok.

I am a strange person.

I have a very eclectic taste in shows.
I watch:
Doctor Who, NCIS, White Collar, Merlin, House, In Plain Sight, Warehouse 13, Leverage, Royal Pains, and many others.

I can read an approximately 300 page book in a day, with camp.

I love almost all animals.
I have a cat, but no siblings.

I am a strange person.

I want to live in England someday with a Ph.D. from Harvard.
I will gladly paint each of my walls a different color.
I love Mackenzie Child.
I love antiques and wrought iron and pillows and stuffed animals. Not the creepy ones, though. The fluffy ones.
Frank Lloyd Wright was a brilliant architect, even if he wasn't the greatest planner with wiring.

I love to travel. My family's from both sides of the country. I love Seattle, Washington, California, New York, London, and Saint Louis. Just some favorites.

I love different types of music.
I like rock and scream-o.
I love alternative and indie.
I have a strange fascination with Christian rock, even though I'm Jewish. Flyleaf is a favorite.

I am a very strange person.

Now do you believe me?
I told you I know myself better than you think.

Cheerio, peeps.

OMG! Shopping!

A little piece of me died inside, screaming in agony as it went, while I wrote that title.

I can't believe I went shoe shopping today.
And enjoyed it. x.x
What have I become?!?! 0.O

Nah, but seriously. It was pretty fun with my aunt. I got some new converse, one on sale that had stars (Cool!) and another pair that was black, with SKULLS!!! :-D (I L-O-V-E Converse. They're my favorite type of shoes. Ever.) And I also got a pair of platform-y shoes. (Yay! I can be almost tall-ish!) They're black, but the strap has a big, decorative button on it, which I really like. And a few days ago I got a nice pair of flats that are silver-goldish(?). Well, in any case, metallic looking. And a really, really cool pair of black Converse with white writing. Things like tonight and New York and stuff.
CONVERSE!!!!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

We also saw Toy Story 3 this morning. Gotta love Toy Story. (Woody!!♥!!) I think 2 is my fav. But we know a person who helped work on the animations, so yay!

Anyway, we went to my aunt's dog, Hank's, class. He was a bad doggie. We're pretty sure Hank has a dog equivalent of ADD. But he's so cute! I love him!

So, my cousin situation. Three human cousins, four dog cousins, four cat cousins. And my kitty is my baby brother. Sorta. 'Cuz in cat years he's probably older than me.

I'm sure I had some videos I wanted to post, but I can't remember what they are.
But tomorrow I'm getting my hair dyed. Mostly it'll be dark red streaks, but, as shown on the side bar, I'm getting my bangs dyed a different color. I'm not sure what color they'll be though. I want a blue or purple, but we'll ask the hair dresser what he thinks. Hopefully I'll get a good color.

My book's coming well. I'm getting to the major action scenes, which will go very quick. I'm really believing I'm going to be able to finish my book, no, manuscript, by the end of the summer.
Yay!

Have a nice summer everyone!
Cheerio, peeps!

California

Okay, now. Two things to say.

1. I GOT TO 100 PAGES IN MY BOOK YESTERDAY!!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!! I AM NOW HALF-WAY TO MY GOAL! SQUEAL!!!!!!!! :-D

2. Yesterday I flew on a plane by myself for the first time. It wasn't so bad. So, I am writing this from my grandpa's computer in San Francisco right now. He doesn't have Wi-Fi in his house.
:-(
So now I have to write this on a REALLY old computer. I miss my Mac! Sob... Right now it's charging in the basement because there aren't any three pronged sockets that I could find free.
And this computer bugs me. When I have to go back and fix something it deletes other things I wrote while I write the new things. Sorry, that was a bad explanation, but I hope you get it.

Well, later this after noon my aunt and I, and her dogs, are going out to her house, where I'll be staying for most of the rest of my visit.

And, okay, I'm sick of not telling anyone this.
I now have side bangs! Yay!
And, I mean, since you probably don't know me, then it's not a big deal, but I've had bangs since I was really, really little and they've always been pretty long. Flopping in my face and stuff. So I go side bangs and LOVE them!
I'm sure when, but I think Thrusday, I'm going to get red streaks dyed into my hair (Yay!) and I want to get my bangs a different color. But I'm not sure what. Please vote on the poll that will be on the side when you look.
Thanks!

If I get a chance, I'll post a poem later.

My aunt's dogs, Ruby and Hank, say "Woof!" Which is their dog speak for, "Please rub my tummy, give me treats, and hi everyone!" Remeber, that was just a rough translation.

Cheerio from a different time zone than normal, peeps!

P.S. I'm doing very well with my 100 book challenge. Right now I'm reading a book called Beautiful Creatures by two authors and it's very interesting. But it's also pretty long, so it's taking me a while. But I'll most likely finish it this afternoon.

Because I'm a Strange Person

I've made an award! It's so weird. Don't even ask.

So now! The requirements!
Post the weirdest picture you have ever seen or taken (Preferably taken.) and answer these questions:
Have you ever used Photoshop?
Have you ever wanted to kill your camera because you couldn't get the perfect picture?
And
Have you ever taken a picture from the top of a very steep hill or a cliff?

The reason I ask all these is because this is quite possibly the strangest picture I have ever taken. The deer's eyes are FREAKIN' GLOWING!!

And then you have to nominate 8 people (Or as close as you can get to that number).
I nominate:

Jessica(Infublo) of What Really Happened,
The Clumsy Reader(Christine Reynolds) of The Clumsy Reader,
greenpanda of greenpanda666,
Pearl (a.k.a. Candy) of Confessions of A Candyhol!c,
And last but not least,
Mickey Rich of A Wallflower Words.

So that's it for now. Maybe I should try to go to sleep now...

G'night everyone who isn't in the same time zone as me!

Cheerio, peeps!

An Envelope and a Stone

A little white stone.
A little white envelope.

"Good-bye," she whispers.
A smile graces his face.

Tears fall on the freshly turned earth.
Tears fall on paper that is bringing the news.

One of them has left us.
One has returned.

I don't know. Don't ask. Just a strange poem.

Cheerio, peeps.

I'm Coming Along

Well, my 100 book reading challenge started officially Thursday night, even though I said it would start on Friday.
If you are insulted, sue me. *Snort* Like that's gonna happen!
(1 month later: *Find plain brown envelope in mail. I open it.* I'm being sued for WHAT?!?!)
Lol.

Sorry. Had to say it!!

Sorry again...
I'm a little tired.

Anyway
The books!
I've read 5 books already.
Right now I'm reading The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett as my main book.
I'm almost done with Chicks Dig Time Lords, which is a compilation of essay things and some interviews(YAY!!).
And I'm STILL reading the Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan. It's pretty good, I'm just having trouble getting back into it. I loved the beginning but then it got a little whatev-ish. Oh well. I'll finish it eventually.
Next I'm going to read The Opal Deception by Eoin Colfer. I don't know why I never read the Artemis Fowl books before. I guess I just wasn't interested....
But I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Artemis Fowl!!!! I L-O-V-E him!!!
And Butler too!
I know he's technically considered the bad guy a lot, but I like him even more than the fairies! Even Foaly, although it comes close.

At the Library (Yes, I cap Library. Didn't you know it was a gift from God?!) I have a few books on hold:
Quiver by Stephanie Spinner
Quicksilver by Stephanie Spinner
The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner
and a manga.

I'm also going to read The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner sometime soon. And I REALLY want The Necromancer by Michael Scott. I love that series!

And this video is really funny!
And the song's great too.

He makes funny videos.

Cheerio,peeps!

Zombies!

Since we're pretty much done with all our classes at school, 'cuz it's done FINALLY on Friday, we've been watching movies. In RS we're watching Fiddler on the Roof and in English we watched Grammer Rock.

So, in Fiddler on the Roof there is a strange zombie dream.

Strange zombie dance......

This song was stuck in my head ALL day yesterday!!!!



Yeah. I'm weird.

In English today our teacher read us a whole bunch of hilarious stuff that his former students had emailed him.


My favorites:

In China, people thought that "Pepsi will bring your ancestors back from the dead." FUNNY!!!

And, the letter from the grave:

A man sends his wife an email. Unable to find where he wrote her email down, he guesses it. He only gets it wrong by one letter!
Meanwhile, a widow of a minister returns home from his funeral to check her email. She sees this letter and faints;

To: My loving wife
Subject: I've arrived
Date: November 18, 2004
I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here now and you are allowed to send e-mails to your loved ones. I've just arrived and have checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Look forward to seeing you then. Hope your journey is as uneventful as mine was.
(L-O-V-E this part!!!!!!)
P.S. It's freaking hot down here.

ROTFL!!!!!!!!!

I DID NOT MAKE THAT UP!!!!!!

Poor lady, and poor guy. He must have been so embarrassed when he found out his wife didn't get the email. Wonder when he found out who he sent it to.....
(Evil grin of enjoyment.)

Cheerio, peeps!

What's in a Name?

I have many names,
and yet only one.

My name is known to all,
yet myself alone.

My name was forgotten,
removed from all around.
My name is known as many things,
by people all over everywhere.

My name means nothing,
to anyone but me.

For to me,
my name means...

But if I were to tell you,
how could I say it only meant that to me?

Indeed... It's a pretty cool book idea, I have to say. Kinda creepy, too.
There a 15-year-old assassin. It's futuristic, pretty easy to tell.

Cheerio, peeps.

Chicks Truly Do Dig Time Lords

I went to the book signing of Chicks Dig Time Lords this afternoon. I met the editors and three of the people who wrote in it.
I met John Barrowman's (Captain Jack Harkness) big sister. She, along with the other four, signed my book to me. And then I ended up telling them I'm writing a trilogy. They thought that was really cool.
And she thinks I should go to the college she teaches at, and almost inevitably learn from her.
HOW COOL IS THAT??!?!!?!?!?!?!?
OHMYGOD, I MET PEOPLE WHO HAVE MET DAVID TENNAT, KNOW HIM ON A FIRST NAME BASIS, BEEN ON THE DOCTOR WHO SETS, AND KNOW RUSSEL T. DAVIS ON A FIRST NAME BASIS!!!!!!
O.O

SQUEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a true, die-hard, Doctor Who fan-girl. Or, as they called it, the new way I will call it, a "Squea-girl."
Definitely.

DW Squea-girl over and out.

Cheerio, peeps!

PEACE
It's a sign on my door.
No, my door isn't that color, it just looks cool that way.

'COURSE I'M A NORMAL PERSON!
A cool photoshop of a sign on my closet door.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR A HANDFUL OF CHANGE?
I just had some change lying around. It's a cool pic, you gotta admit.
Also a creepy title.
Short story, anyone?

ALIENS!
Just the invert of image below.

STRUGGLING ARTIST
I'm not sure what I was thinking when I took this.
Actually, I'm not sure what I was thinking when I took any of these...
It was kind of 11:30 about two weeks ago...

(Untitled)
A bad pic of the sign on my closet.

TIME CRASH (1920/2010)
DOCTOR WHO!!!!!
FUNNY video. Posted at bottom.

SEGREGATION
Bad picture...

NORMAL PERSON STAMP
Cool version of the sign close-up.

SCATTER!
*Shrug*

TEENAGE RICHES
My handful of change, golden hat, and favorite fake pearls.
I know I have real pearls somewhere, but I love my fakes!

ELEGANT HISTORY
This is an interesting one. I have my great-grandmother's pocket watch necklace, which is mine now, my fake pearls, and pretty porcelain box.
Something about this picture distinctly reminds me of the late 1800s/early 1900s.

Doctor Who-Time Crash:

DOCTOR WHO!!!!!
LOVED David Tennant!! Still think he's BRILLIANT!!! Gotta see the BBC Hamlet with him! My favs!!! Shakespeare and David Tennant!!!!!
:-D
And now I ADORE Matt Smith! He is HILARIOUS!!!!! And Infublo agrees!!!!
But Matt Smith's so cute!! He's not cute, like crush cute, but little brother cute. And in the beginning you might think he's kinda odd looking, but watch 2 minutes and I GUARANTEE you will love him! And he keeps growing on you! He's amazing!

Possibly more picture tomorrow.

Cheerio, peeps!

Cheerio, peeps!

P.S. 5 more days of learning left!

School

Papers rustle.
Keys tap.
Mice click.
The teacher passes.

Eyes dart.
Hands shake.
The teacher stares
and watches.

No.
We're not cheating.
We're just being helpful!
The teacher doesn't believe us.
Detention...

No. I have never cheated on a test in my life! I'm just bored right now. And I shouldn't be on here anyway...
