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,

I just love how exactly zero people replied to my "I'm back!" entry
and that only Novu, Lady K and Dok seem to realize that I'm back, or are at least the only ones to acknowledge it-- and I talk to Lady K and Novu mostly off of BZP anyway, so they don't really count in this particular instance.
DO YOU NOT LOVE ME ANYMORE.
WELL?
...no, wait, I dunno if I want that answered honestly. I think the trouble may be that only a few people read my blog...or at least only a few people, like
Yes, it is.
So it's Labor Day weekend, and specifically, the last day of the three-day weekend. So I should have the sads, but I don't feel much of anything, except an itch to go work on some arts 'n crafts I need to finish before school tomorrow.
I missed an hour of P.E. on Friday (the Friday before last Friday, to be precise) while at the doctor's, so to make up we are given the option of 1) writing a paper on a sport of the teacher's choosing or 2) do an activity in which you achieve yo
To Lady Kopaka: I am always here. .... Except, unfortunately, past 8:30.>.> Silly goose.
I am a question to the world,
Not an answer to be heard.
All a moment that's held in your arms.
And what do you think you'd ever say?
I won't listen anyway…
You don't know me,
And I'll never be what you want me to be.
And what do you think you'd understand?
I'm a boy, no, I'm a man..
You can take me and throw me away.
And how can you learn what's never shown?
Yeah, you
I spend half of my life going to the doctor, dentist, orthodontist, eye doctor...and the other half I spend doing projects for English class.
*sigh*
...Did you know I like parking lot sparrows? Parking lot sparrows are so cute. And unlike other sparrows, you can get pretty close to them before they fly off. I like parking lot sparrows a lot. Actually, I like sparrows in general. And chickadees, and finches. Oh, and red-tailed hawks. We see them all the time in Kansasland.

...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.
-Raia-
Urgh my stomach...too much cake.
Urgh my brain...too much English homework.
Urgh my body...too much sleep-deprived-ness.
Urgh my life...too much CRAZY AWESOME GOING ON WHOOOOO 8D

Did I mention that my percussion ensemble is going to ooooown the competition at State? [/enthusiasm] And furthermore, it's amazing how talking to people is just this extraordinary tonic; it reminds you why we keep on going every day. Motivation is important, right?

Lol, we bought my d
[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
...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

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can't wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)
Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can't wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I've become)
Now that I know what I'm with
It's like doing drugs- you think it won't hurt to try it once, and then you start doing it all the time, and next thing you know, it's Sunday afternoon and you haven't started your Pre AP II English paper, which is due tomorrow, typed.

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-
It's supposed to be spring, right? I'm not going crazy, right?
Cuz like
it's 80 degrees out. WHAT THE KARZAHNI.
ALSO
GO GIVE LK SOME LOVE. DO IT RIGHT NOW. OKAY? Kthxbai.=3

I look out the window and whisper "SNOW? Are you serious?!"
AIHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.8D
*Dashes off to write poem celebrating first snow of the year to actually cover the ground*

Four days left.
The school feels very empty now...graduation was last night. I uh, sort of forgot I was supposed to be there to play with the band.>.>; Fortunately my mother was not so forgetful and chivvied me there accordingly. That lasted like...three hours. Three hours I could have been doing a million other things. But at least I managed to glomp our senior drummer during a transition...I dunno if I'll ever see him again.;;
Oh, you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.
Five days left.
...and for the first time in my life, I managed to flunk a test; on calorimetry, to be exact. Hooray.><
A question to the masses: If April showers bring May flowers, then what do daily thunderstorms in May mean? Because it's raining again. I love it, don't get me wrong, I love everything about thunderstorms; I love the dark clouds that gather on the horizon, the first deafening crack of thunder, the patter of rain outside and the breeze blowing in through the wind
Is random.
I don't really have much to say, but I want to say something...it's like when I'm staring at a blank screen and want to write something, but I have no idea WHAT, precisely. Ever get that?
Or, when you think you hear someone call your name, but there's nobody around?
Maybe Raia just needs moar sreep. And less English homework. I have like three projects to do over the next couple of days. And it's Thanksgiving break, for Mata Nui's sake!><
Oh yeah, and good luck t
So this is what I was did with that pineapple back in the 'mad scientist' entry:
Raia + boredom + pineapple + construction paper + tape + scissors + moar tape + frustration = WIN.

My dad's birthday is in three days.
So, WHAT SHOULD I DRAW FOR HIM? Besides like, mountainzz. I did that last year. He liked my painting, buut...it now lives in his closet.._. He likes astronomy, nature, literature, classical music, science, and um...stuff. Stuff like that. Yeah. Or should I just stick with finding a rake, because of that one joke...hm. *ponders*
Also just as a side note, on that ENORMOUS rant thing two entries back, I just needed to vent cuz I haven't been able t
