Ultra-Rage

So... there's this boy... ;)


Hahaha! The wink was to throw you off.  Did it?  Did you think I was going to talk about mushy-gushy stuff?  Or did the raging title give it away?  Well, whatever.  I do not like this kid.  I mean, he's okay as a person... I guess... maybe.  But he's kinda mean to me.  And he thinks he's the smartest person in the world.  But yeah.

I can usually stand him.  In fact, I might even consider him my friend (disregarding my annoyance at him).  But this week he was awful.  I swear it was like, rage on Zack week.  Oops, I said his name.  Now you know who it is.  But whatever.  He's in my 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th period classes.  It's like he follows me everywhere.  And every time he would open his mouth this week I just wanted to punch him.  Especially since he kept saying "I'll beat you up."  I wanted to punch him just to prove to him that he couldn't beat me up.  I would win.  But I restrained myself.

But inside I was raging at him all week long.
So I made a rage page.
It's my new way to release anger.
It works quite well!
It just takes time.
Which is good.
Because it occupies my anger for a long period of time.

In case you can't tell... all the little words say "RAGE" or "rage."

I must have written rage over 1000 times.

But hey! It worked. :)

Theme for English AP

For AP English we were assigned to write a poem.

A poem about ourselves based on the style and form of this poem.

And this is my result.

~~~

As I sit here and type my paper,

           

            I realize that I probably should have done it sooner

            Because it is Sunday night, and this is due second period tomorrow.

            But I tend to procrastinate doing things.

            This year that will change;

I will procrastinate no more—

Starting next time.

Anyway, is it really procrastinating if I planned to wait until now to do it?

I am seventeen, born in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

I am the third oldest of nine children, and each child is extraordinarily unique…

Except for me, it seems.  Most of the time I feel like nothing but a shadow,

A shadow of my two older siblings combined.

Everything I achieve, one of them has already done.

And no matter how hard I try, I can not be better than them.

So it is like I’m constantly stuck in their shadows.

Attempting to find a part of me that is unique to me.

It is not easy to find yourself when you feel as if you live inside a box—

A box with one window that points towards those who came before you,

So what they are is all you know, all you can know, all you can be.

But eventually you find that the walls of the box are weak,

They can be broken down.

You can be free—

Free to live as you.

Well, I like to blog, swim, sing, and make people laugh.

I like to play the piano and the cello and play water polo.

I like to be included and noticed, and to watch British television.

And I might as well add that I do like to eat and sleep a lot, too.

I also like to think that the comma I placed before “too” was necessary,

Though I am not quite sure whether or not it was.

It always perturbs me when a paper fills up an entire page and barely reaches the next,

One or two lines on a page always just feels so blank.

So I am going to end up writing more than I originally planned.

I have more to say, and in with it I shall add many rambling words to add length.

Hmm… many rambling words.

It makes me think of many mumbling mice.

“BIG M.  little m.

Many mumbling mice are making midnight music in the moonlight… mighty nice.”

Oh Dr. Seuss.  You are a part of me.

You are white—and American.

And I learn from you,

Although you are older- and dead-

So you obviously can’t learn from me.

And here I am rambling, like I said I would be.

As I come to conclude this theme for English AP,

I feel somewhat like a Jedi.

But I guess some explanation of that last statement is needed…

As I have been sitting here typing this,

I have been listening to the “Epic Film Scores” playlist on Songza—

A playlist that makes my life feel so much more, well, Jedi-ish.

And here, my theme for English AP comes to an abrupt end.

~~~

I tried to find a good balance of serious and funny.
I am so glad my teacher has a sense of humor.

Bright, fun, and sophisticated.

Sorry for the Polyvore spam...
Polyvore is just super fun.
And whenever I put together a new set, it automatically posts it here on my blog.
And I'm totally digging the torquoise and yellow combo.
(Did I really just say that?  "Totally digging?"  I never say that.)

Excited!

Today I bought Wreck This Journal.

I'm excited.

Now I get to fill it out.

And I'm going to document it.

All of it.

Probably on a Tumblr blog... it'll be simpler that way.

But YES.

Before:                                                                         After:

Seminary drawings. :)

(^^^I gave them facial hair just for Tara.)

Snail

I made this snail out of Hershey minis candy wrappers.

I know I'm creative.  You don't have to tell me. ;)

It was fun. :D

(Sometimes there just isn't a whole lot to do in seminary.)

Polyvore

So...I discovered this site called Polyvore.
And it's pretty great.
I designed this outfit.
It was fun.
The end.

Recent Adventures

For mutual I etched this mirror AND made this rose out of clay.  (I painted it with fingernail polish.) :D

~~~

The Panda Express opened.  Yum, yum, yum!

 I made these from Pinterest.

Chocolate peanut butter bars.

Yumm. Yumm.

I think Joe is confused.  These are OBVIOUSLY briefs.

So my friend Russell went to Forks, Washington (where he moved from) about a year ago, and he brought people back souvenirs.  He brought my sister a jar of dirt.  She kept it on a bookshelf near a window, and she noticed that there is now stuff growing in it!  CRAZY!
