MOUSE ONLY ON PDN IN LIKE A MINUTE OMIGOSH *dies* I dunno what I was thinking...guess I wanted to see how steady my hand was.^.^ Not very, but enough to produce an acceptable likeness of my favorite small set for this year.

Woah, I haven't updated in a while. Tried to blog yesterday but BZP ate my entry and then it died on me.D=
This song. It is awesome. Especially when a teacher randomly sings it for you while playing guitar and harmonica at the SAME TIME. Talk about multi-talented.
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?

I didn't do a fail at Contest! GAAAASSSP.
In fact, I thought I did quite well on my xylophone part. The xylo was a sort of burnt orange color, which was amusing to me. Had a nice tone, too, clear and with a bit of a ring to it. Also the stage was quite hot, which didn't help my sweaty hands. But whee! We also got a 1 rating, btw. [with 1 being the best rating possible. or is it possible to get a 1+, with that being the best...? I dun remember.]
But owowowowwww, my feet. I have FO
My new Sansa Fuze came in-- a mere TWO DAYS before my departure. What kind of luck is that? Raia is NEVER lucky.0:
Well, may as well enjoy its shininess while I wait for the other shoe to drop.

In the past couple of months, I've met more writers than I've ever thought might exist. Considering the attitude most people my age have towards writing, I never expected that, though we're not a majority, we're not exactly scarce, either. Today I discovered another fantasy/sci-fi writer who was lurking right under my nose. She's in my English class and she always seemed nice, but I never really talked to her. But today I decided to sit at a different table than usual--I'm getting frustrated
Well! Thank goodness it's unofficially the weekend nao. My throat feels rather better, but of course, instead of not being able to talk, I can no longer breathe do to a combination of runny nose/stuffed nose. Yaaaaaaaay!
My Spanish teacher gave us progress reports today. I have some good news in this case....I've raised my B to an A!...although barely.x3 But even so.
...I need an idea for an amusing, colorful entry. Thoughts?
-Raia-
Because half of the forums are people arguing over stuff like "They're BIONICLE sets, not Bionicles, fools!!!"
Silly BZPers.
On a related note, I just don't like arguing in general, unless it's just a goofy argument which is more about being ridiculous then a genuine exchange of anger at each others' opinions or whatever. Just to clarify. So I hardly ever state my hardcore opinion on an issue because I don't want to start a debate, and EVERYONE seems obligated to debate other people'
I feel so much better now. Much better.<3
Which I suppose is partially because my ensemble ACTUALLY DID WELL on Saturday. We're moving on to the State level. Zomg.D: It's on the 25th and it's nowhere near where I live, so it should be...fun. And traumatizing. Yup. Nothing like a little drama in the music department.
Peace out,

YES
The first and last win of the season! WHOOPEE.
Last night, I mean. Our football team actually WON the final game of the season. A game in which the band wasn't rained on as anticipated, and were even spared from wind. The score was 34-14. Excuse me while I do a happy jig. WITH my CYMBALS.
Wheee
And one of the drummers split the head of his snare. It was hard core and awesome and stuff. You could stick your hand into the drum.x3 But no progress with hotbellsguy still, sig
...to bring you some random! Because I hate to see this place rot.:< I have no ideas for wacky entries anymore...so we are interrupting the program of BLAH with some random Raia facts that are random, and not even possibly relevant to anyone except me, and if you're lucky, you'll find them entertaining.^^
This is only temporary programming...I have art coming soon.0: HONEST TO GOODNESS, GENUINE BIONICLE ART.

Oh hey guyz.
so guess what my mom did now? She made me an appointment with a doctor at Children's Mercy Hospital tomorrow in the time I would normally have PE and Chemistry. And she only told me she made this appointment just now, after dinner. My first thought was "Why didn't you tell me this earlier...?" and the second was "Why do I have an appointment at a HOSPITAL? Am I DYING or something?!"
Apparently, she decided I need to "get help" for these dizzy spells that keep popping up on
This.
I HAVE THREE NEW BOOKS TO READ BUT NO TIME TO READ THEM IN. Oh, the twisted irony. Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis (which I'm actually about a third of the way through...an interesting book which my dad showed me while in the bookshop and said "This looks good and it's by the guy who wrote the Chronicles of Narnia" so I bought it.) Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson (found it in a church sale for like, three bucks, so I HAD to buy it. And furthermore, the sponsor from my club
It's supposed to be spring, right? I'm not going crazy, right?

...apparently, I'm leaving for New Mexico this Saturday.
On the one hand, I've never been to New Mexico, and it will be -awesome-
but on the other hand...I'll be gone for a week, and I'll miss you guys. GROUPHUGPLZ
-Raia-
So. I got one of those dizzy spells at the library that I used to get back when I got sick and had an iron deficiency or whatever, back in...August? Yeah. Back then, at the beginning of the year, I got all lethargic and I would get dizzy and I got so confuzzled and out-of-sync that I tried leaving school two periods too soon.
So now I'm all worried because I've been rather tired lately, and now this dizzy spell.
Hooray for Saturday. ._.
-Raia-
That stuff I said is due Friday? I just realized they're due Thursday.
*Dies*
And I just started the rough draft that is due tomorrow.

Two days left.
I kinda bombed my English final--got a 76% >.>;--but then again, so did everyone else, and I'll still finish out the year with an A. And the teacher bought us all yummy cinnamon bagels and cream cheese, so that made up for it.8D The AAT final was quite easy in comparison, especially because I ACTUALLY STUDIED--and I NEVER study, I'm so terrible about that. I don't know my exact score, but my teacher told me that I got the highest score in all the AAT classes, so uh, ye
Okay, look people.
It's not that Twilight is a bad book. It's not the best book in the world. It is a good book. I have read it, as well as New Moon, so don't any fangirls come swarm over me. I read it voraciously. It's the sort of thing that sucks you in like a helpless fish in a whirlpool, whether you want to or not.
But seriously. Draw the line, people, draw the line. To fangirls: CHILL OUT, why don't you? To haters/bashers: bash the behavior, not the book, please. Just cuz y
...one must first be able to draw big, blocky things.
Raia cannot draw blocky things.D: Tears!
But yeah, I want to draw a realistically shaded, black-and-white pencil drawing of the Mata Nui robot. Desperately. But, I don't know what pose to draw it in. I don't want to do something too bland, and I'd also rather avoid copying a pose from one of the posters, though I'll probably end up doing that, in the end...mayhaps the HEROPOSE! one. If anyone has suggestions, though, I'd be happy t
Three days left.
OH. MY. FREAKING. GOSH.0:
My schedule for the next three days:
Wednesday- English final, study hall, Math final, study hall, P.E. final
Thursday (1/2 day)- Band final (a.k.a. kill time in the band room xD), 15 min. break, Spanish final
Friday (1/2 day)- Computer Apps final, 15 min. break, Chemistry final
AND THEN MY HIGH SCHOOL SOPHOMORE YEAR IS OVER.8D
Also, today was my LAST DAY OF P.E. IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. Except the final. But...yeah. *zomgs*
-Raia-
I cannot talk, eat, laugh, or even just swallow without experiencing a sensation as if I'm swallowing a Thornax whole. It's not funny. I need my voice. I need to be able to communicate with people. Especially in Spanish class. The whole point of that class is to speak Spanish. More importantly, it hurts to laugh, which really sucks cuz I laugh a lot.
My mom even let me out of going to basketball band tonight, which is serious cuz she hasn't let me before and tonight's the playoffs. Or one of
