Paranoia, Paranoia

Yeah, that's right. I said it.

I'm not really sure what's expected of me in this class. All I know is that whatever it is...I don't understand it. Not yet, anyway. If you've got any insight on the short story "A&P" by John Updike, well, it would be appreciated.

:)

Not gonna lie...forgot all about live journal, yet again.
If it handed been for the six people asking me about it in the last week, I probably would have forgotten it forever.
So it's obviously been quite awhile since I blogged (or whatever you wanna call it) last. What's been up with me?
Well, my boyfriend goes to Kansas is less than a month for college (good luck to me).
Before summer I went to England to see ajodasso, then during the summer I went to Idaho to see Jenna and the babies, then to New Mexico to see my whole dad's side of the family. Thrilling. Only not.

I'm finally a senior (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). This school year can't possibly go fast enough though. I'm ready to get out, but I'm not ready to make a decision on what to do next. Dad and Rachel want me to move south west for college. I know mom wants me to stay fairly close. At least I think so. Unless she has some secret plants to move closer to Jenna and Brad. The only school I've really checked out is Washington and Jefferson. It's a really great school for academics..and the campus is in a perfect location. Not TOO far from home, but close to the city. I still have awhile though, I guess.

Maybe I'll try to get on here more often. It's not like I have much else to do.

I tried it for 2007 and it completely fell through. I'm not even gonna mention what it was, it's simply too embarrassing. I'm convinced 2008 can't possibly be worse than 2007, so I decided to save my new year from further destruction by bypassing the whole resolution scene. Long term goals are things I just can't handle. I either forget, or become disinterested in keeping it going. I did, however...think...of a few resolutions had I changed my mind.
Firstly, I thought maybe "I'll volunteer more around town"...only, of course, for the sake of impressing colleges. But honestly....I really don't care too much about that.
And then I thought hmmm, maybe "I'll attend less parties." PSHT. I was totally kidding myself with that one. I barely go to them as it is...can't deprive myself of that luxury. (And believe me, anything is a luxury compared to being stuck at home like I oftentimes find myself.)
The only other that comes to mind is "Don't get hung up on the small stuff." But Lord, how vague is that? And no matter how much I really wanted that one to work, it just wouldn't. Details are like, everything to me. I tend to obssess over them.

That pretty much does it. I'll probably never REALLY try to make a resolution...I just dont have the willpower.

He's simply never looked so good. ^_^
I loved Sweeney Todd. I thought it was genius, though the throat-slitting got a little monotonous but eh, I still dig it!

HERE I AM!!!
I've finally found my way back into the livejournal world. Honestly, I just keep forgetting I've got this account.
Happy new year to you all. However, it was a rather sad and uneventful one for yours truly. I had to work until 11:30...and it was only supposed to be about 10:30 but uhh, the goddamn bridal party showed up an hour and a half late. We couldn't serve the guests until the party got there, so, uh....we just stood around the kitchen and had a fun time discussing possible reasons they were late. Four other waitresses, the cook, the two kitchen workers, the dj and his sidekick, and myself had a lot of fun doing this. There were suggestions such as:
1. The bride was saving herself for marriage so after the wedding she just couldn't hold it in....they were getting it on in the limo.
2. The bride had a panic attack after the wedding and decided she didn't want to be married, so on the way to their reception they had to stop to get an annulment.
3. The bride got all drunk and whatnot on champagne in the limo...causing her to throw up all over her new husbad and force them to drive all the way home so he could put on a new suit.
Those were just some of the bland ones. I wish I remembered the others.
But anyway, the bride and groom finally got there...like seven people gave speeches and whatnot...and then finally they cut the cake...our cue to start serving. I wanted to take a huge butcher knife out with me and cut the bride...but crimson didn't exactly go with the color scheme of the wedding setup so...I spared her. I dont know why, but all of our anger went out on the bride. Funny. Ha. Although, my one waitress friend, Kate, DID hit a man in the head with her tray. He was pissing her off a lil bit.

So anyway, I get home with fifteen minutes til midnight....so obviously no plans for me. I went straight up to my room and turned on some music. Wrapped myself up in six different blankets...turned on the tv (no volume, of course) and watched the ball drop by myself.

Ahhhh, it was great. Really. Great.

Seeing as I only have two friends (though you are dear to me, as you should know), this seems a bit unnecessary but I will proceed anyway.
Yes, I've had my livejournal account for a month now and this is only the second time I've logged on. I'm impressive, I know. My life is just hectic for a 16 year old...only because I'm an over-achiever, of course. I dig it just fine.

Today I'm home sick from school. I find it to be a bit of a relief, actually. School has been effing me in the A lately.
