Lightning just struck a house about three doors down.
All our appliances went off, and then starting going beserk, including our fire alarms and several battery-related items (ex. one of my brother's old Hot Wheel playsets went bonkers). Computers were all fine, but a surge got through mine, through my headphones and zapped me in the ear. Ow.
There was some property damage done to the roof of the house, and there were lots of fire trucks. Other than my ear, no one was hurt, yay.

I want to rewind last weekend so I can go to Brickfest with Omi and Rayg... ;_;

And, yet again, I must explain for my absence.
Two words:
Parent Password
One of my siblings has been visiting a couple gaming sites secretly. Unfortunately, they're sites that have been dumping tons of viruses into our computer. So, my parents set up an internet password that only they know.
So, alas, I shall be on BZP even less than before... boo-hoo.

However, I AM planning t
So I'm apparently the Assistant Stage Manager for Annie next February. o______O
This means I get to be the one who calls the shots backstage during the performance, govern the crew chief and crew heads and cast (lots of children means lots of broken stuff) and make sure they don't break props or furniture or themselves, be the personal lackey for the stage manager and director, stay up late and get up early for a long time, etc.
Plus I get a scholarship and a chance to be stage manager my
I ate decent fried chicken for the first time in months. Yum. I ate decent beef for the first time in months. Double yum. I ate decent food for the first time in months. Cafeteria food is icky and blah after a while. I'm actually sleeping for more than 4 hours a night. Very glad for this, as I was so sleep deprived last month I could barely function. FREE LAUNDRY AND NO WAIT. ...stop giving me that funny look, Smeag. :| CAT. :3 This one is important. Seriously. Ask Smeag. Or Tufi. I FINALL
Yay Niki drew some stuff!

Yay. :3

ONLY 14 DAYS LEFT OF SCHOOOOOOL! =D
Yes, that does include weekends, but still...
What's even cooler is that, once I get this stuff done, I will have all my core curriculum finished, so techinically I can go to college. I won't be (yet), but it'll be nice not to have to do English, Math, Science, or Social Studies until I do enter insaneland college.

For those of you that would care to keep me in your thoughts:
I need a job. BADLY. And nobody's called me in for an interview a
Hey all.
Just stopping in to say hi and that I'm doing better, if not still very tired and what-not. ^^ I believe I've somewhat recovered from the shock of two weeks ago, although it's still a bit hard to comprehend at times. I was able to slip onto BZP a few times last week, which was cool (thanks to those of you who PMed me and chatted when I was online). I'll be trying to get on more often by next month.
And heh, happy news is that I finally got enough extra money saved up to buy my ma
Three things:
1) I'm finally done with that huge drawing project! Now I just have to get it to the person I drew it for.
2) I got my hair cut. Like... really cut. As in much shorter than I had it before.
3) I only slept 4 hours last night. Mainly cause I stayed up 'till about 2 in the morning finishing up my drawing project.
So, if you'll all excuse me, I'm gonna go and collapse on the couch.
..Ah....mushy pillows... ^^

My younger sis is at the doctor's office right now, getting something checked out that's on her inner arm.
We don't know what it is, but she's had it for the past 3 months and it's gotten worse - it's like a growth or something... She was a little scared when she left.
I feel so worthless, cause I'm at home...

I want to see this musical.
I really do. ;_;
You know who you are, you person, you, and you should know it's partially your fault. You owe me some Broadway tickets.
MUSIC IS AWESOME GWAH. <3

Because MATH IS FREAKING ANNOYING.
I'll take paper writing anyday, heck, if i'm lucky, you can get me to explain a mathematical theorem in writing.
But hand me a marker and ask me to finish an equation?
NOOOOnonononononogaaaughhhhrosebud.
I don't like math.

I went to Wal-Mart.
I ran to the Lego aisle.
I saw Mahri.
And Hydraxon.
And Maxilos & Spinax.
And Deep Sea Patrol.
But I have no money, because I had to use it for food last week.
So I stared at them pretty canister and boxes.
For a while.
And I went home.
And brooded in a corner with my empty wallet.
The end.

Drat.
Missed the Lego store. By 12 miles.

Maybe it was cause I was drowning in insanely thick Jersey accents coming from everyone but myself. No one threw me a life preserver, man.
Crazy.
Ah well. Tired, worn, and really feeling like I need a vacation from what was supposed to be my vacation, but at least I'm back now with all limbs intact. I believe I learned more about Ben Franklin last week than I ever have before.
And I didn't die when put in the same
