It's the first of October, and in honor of the occasion, here is a poem that I will write here, in this entry, a spontaneous poem.
Numb toes,
Running nose,
Running late again...
Flush of pink across the sky
I wait to see if the clouds will cry
Maybe then I won't be late again...
Summertime has gone
To say I'm sad would be half-wrong;
I embrace the October breeze again.

Do you remember those? Those delectable, buttery sweet, peanut-shaped sandwich cookies with peanut butter stuff in the middle?? Delightfully crunchy and OH so cute?
...yeah I found some at Target. Oh, sweet, peanut-buttery reminiscence. *noms*
I also remember that I used to eat a lot of those little snack packs that had the little cracker sticks and a containter of cheese...stuff, that you were supposed to dip the crackers sticks in. Except, I remember that I always ate the sticks pl
I have nothing to say in this blog.D:
OH NOEZ.
...oh look, it's almost the end of September. How did that happen? Time just seems to be chasing me wherever I go, beating me over the head with ferrets and screaming "I AM PASSING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE LOL." It's not that there aren't enough hours in a day so much as it seems I'm forced to waste them. For example, today I got called to the office and spent a good twenty minutes or so waiting to resolve an issue that took two minutes to fix.
Nine days left.
Things to do in those nine days:
-Write essay/create powerpoint discussing my possible future career for Computer Apps
-Create a children's book in Spanish, with illustrations, for Spanish I
-Audition for Wind Ensemble
-Study for next week's Finals
-Figure out what science course to take next year
-Do homework as applicable
-Not embarrass myself playing softball in PE
-Not die
Let the havoc begin!

Especially if it's your brother's bouncy-ball, and not yours.>.>
WHAT?! WE HAVE ANOTHER PROJECT IN ENGLISH CLASS?!?! *asplodes*
-Raia-
Well, I went to see a neurologist today in my quest to discover the cause of the dizzy spells which I've been having randomly since a year ago. After being poked, prodded, and questioned, I have a new set of doctors to see. Whee. I just wish we could figure out what my problem is already...but at least the doc was nice. Apparently, she also saw me at the Marching Festival last week.xD It's such a small world!
What else have I been doing?...well, tests. Tests, timed writings, etc, etc.
He's not that big, but he took waaaaay longer to draw than Kirop did...oh well...click the lovable Av-Matoran to review him.^^
As for my life, well, not too much interesting. I got a random nosebleed on the way back home from the state capital, but that's about it. Not that any of you really wanted to know that I had a nosebleed.xD
Oh, and I SHOULD be doing my English homework right now. But you only live once...

Admit it now, folks. Nature is so awesome. There are millions of wonderful creatures, big and small, rainbow-colored, striped, and spotted, flying, swimming, running, hopping, all sharing this one little blue-and-green planet with us. Some of them hide in plain sight, some of them live in exotic places like rainforests and deep caverns, and some are still out there, completely undiscovered, in their own little chunk of the world. If you think about it, it's really quite amazing. It's equall
Dude, lemme try that Jeremy!=D
This is how I maintain sanity: I pretend to do my homework while really browsing BZP and deviantART.
Oh yeah, and there's this kid at school. He's nice. And I like his hair. And he's tall. And helpful. And he plays the bells, like me. And he has a fun name.x3 Furthermore, he's calm, reasonably soft-spoken, patient, smart...
He's also a senior. I'm a sophomore.
Why can't I be a good-looking, outgoing, loveable person who isn't a mere 5 feet?;;
...LEWAMAN.
Also, WIP. Basecolors, in PDN.=3 Detail/shading/fixing later, after AC16...and requests...and Christmas...@.@
In other news, my prayers go out to you, AA.
Edit: Whoa weird, I guess a blog leader person thing didn't like that...huh. How come these other guys can say that and I can't? That's just discriminatory. Or is it the thrice-accursed filter again?><
Great, you got me worked up. Wonderful.

Yes, I am one of many BZPers participating this year! And it's off to a good start. So far I've been able to keep up with the daily goals, despite a hectic schedule/sleep-deprived-ness. Speaking of sleep-deprived-ness, apparently one of the tests I'm going to have to take to try and figure out what is causing my health issues will take three hours, and I'll have to purposely sleep-deprive myself beforehand. Urgh. Why can't there be some magical machine that automatically figures out what's
[Or specifically, my classes.]
Band: OMG OUR AMAZING DIRECTOR JUST ANNOUNCED HE IS RETIRING OMG *heart attack*
Math: We learned everything we needed to know back in elementary school.
Science: Is relatively pointless unless you enter a science-related field. Especially my Chem class. I mean really I could learn all that stuff by myself, our teacher is pretty much useless. She's also clueless: she lets the trouble-makers in the class do the demos, much to the lulz of the class and much
They did.
They're orangish...and teeny...I don't know what they will look like for a while. They're platies (sp?). The parents are Mickey and Plato (or Twitchy, I can't keep those two straight); just for reference, Mickey is white with an orange tail and a Mickey Mouse-ears-shaped marking on the tail, and Plato (or Twitchy?) is a loverly reddish-orange with a black tail and markings.
So. Anybody want to get the honor of naming one of the kiddies?xD

Wooow, busy first days of April.-.-
So, alongside all the everyday catastrophes that are my life, Thursday I woke up and couldn't stand up straight. My dizziness had returned full-swing. I was sick to my stomach. So my mom fed me and my brother breakfast, dropped my brother off at school, and drove me to the doctor's. By the time we got there, first hour was over (which was bad, cuz I missed ensemble practice). Got looked over, got blood drawn and all that, got some medicine to try to he
"MUHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Uh...Raia? What are you doing with that pineapple?"
">3"
"Hey Raia, could you distract these two so I can play my DS--"
"Noo, I'm too busy being a mad scientist. Where's the tape??"
"I rearranged. You have to keep up!"
"Nobody rearranges the laboratory without the mad scientist's permission!"
"..."

IS THIS A PLOT TWIST?! ONLY TIME WILL TELL. Or really, Raia-ology will tell.
Oh yeah, I figured out something to do.^.^

OOPS, I forgot to tell y'all what I thought of the movie!=O
So yeah. *Dons helmet*
Overall, the movie is very true to the book. That translates to mean that people who loved the book will love the movie, and people who hate the book or mock the book but refuse to be intelligent and READ THE DANG THING before they slander it will hate it. I should know, because I (foolishly) brought along a friend who had not read the book. She thought the whole thing was a laugh, and was preoccupied wi
The power of music. That's all we need, folks. Besides love, though per say, music is an expression of human emotion. Including love. So therefore, music=love.
I was listening to Old Faithful, my Sansa mp3, and this song came on while I was reading this comment.
I almost cried. It was just so moving.;;

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home ri

Hey everyone. Life pulled a fast one on me again. My mom has been a total pain lately...she's been having mood swings in which she's generally been disproportionately angry (mostly with me, it seems like) and she's kinda made my life miserable. Which is sad, because I feel that in other areas, like academically and socially, I've made so much progress and effort, but then she tears me down and acts like being human, or more accurately, myself, is an evil act.
I miss it. Very very much. Everything seems better when it's sunny.
And oh, I'm so, so doomed. So doomed. The all-band competition is Wednesday, and today the director declared, and I quote: "If you don't fix that part, it's going to kill us."
Hurray, I'm dead.;;
I KNOW the first few measures are bad. Telling me how inadequate I am does not help that. All it does is put a knot in my stomach and then the part is just worse. This is sooo not good for my stress levels, on top of ye
IT SNOWED OVERNIGHT.
Today is Christmas Eve.
I'm getting a white Christmas for the first time since...uh...since I got a white Christmas. Which was not recently. Um, yeah.
Not only that, but I finally finished all those Christmas arts and put 'em up on my dA last night.

So I was taking the ACTPlan the other day. I could almost hear the lady in charge of the test saying, "Thinking is not permitted until I instruct you to do so."
Just another day living the all-American way.
Oh God I'm sooo glad I have today off.;;
