Sydney's blog

I know that this happened a long time ago, but I was reading Syd's blog and then I remembered that time when Kai decided to wax his legs. Idiots. Anyways, here's what Sydney posted:

Today, I am officially scarred for life.

It all started with the election ppl who were putting up their posters today (our school is COVERED with posters). A lot of ppl at The Dome had masking tape and duct tape for the posters. So they started taping each others' wrists together and putting it in their hair, etc. Then, OMG, this is painful to recount, the guys dared each other to PUT TAPE ON THEIR LEGS AND RIP IT OFF!!! As in, like, waxing their legs!!! They all started to wax themselves and Conner got a big rectangle without hair on his legs. And Kevin, being the dummy that he is, decided to use DUCT TAPE. I think we all know how strong that stuff is, so, when he ripped it off, he screamed like a little girl.

When I think about this, it makes me wonder: How did I end up with this group of crazy ppl?!? But, I like my group. We always do stupid/crazy stuff and have a lot of fun without caring what other ppl think about us. So yeah.


When I asked Kai WHY he did that he said: "It's just one of those things that guys never do. I wanted to know what it was like!"

Drama Monologue

I REALLY don't want to do that Drama thing tomorrow! I haven't even STARTED to memorize- I know maybe, 5 or 6 lines. And I need to know it by TOMORROW! This really sucks.


I think basketball season for St. Jerome is over, which is bad, because then Laura will start showing up at swimming nearly every day. Darn. But I don't have to go to practice today because my mom can't give me a ride.


ACC was really fun! And we all love Susan! =-) She's the BEST.... The ropes course was interesting- I didn't go. And Mat just doesn't understand that I'm kinda scared to heights. "Church office" is really funny (NO PURPLE) but there aren't that many episodes. And I ALMOST bought a Skillet CD in the book store, except it was only a demo and I couldn't buy it. =-(


The demo people used 6,000 gallons of water when they tore down the house, and now the lot's completely waterlogged. You can jump or walk on it and the ground ripples. It's kinda freaky and cool at the same time.


Finally read The Last Days and I keep on thinking of "nine kinds of...".

House demo

The house (940) was torn down today!! Finally, so hopefully we can start building today. The idiots were supposed to show up on Monday, but they didn't show, so they prepped the house yesterday. My dad put one of the vids up on YouTube, so here's the link:

ACC's coming up soon, and I can't wait! It's so much fun, except I'm pretty sure some people are going.


Swim practice today, and IT'S LUCY'S BIRTHDAY TODAY!! (It actually could've been yesterday, I'm not sure.......)


AND I'M TRAVIS' PARTNER FOR WISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also sit across from Rylan and Craig. Oh joy.

La la la la la la la la la

I still need to do the Spanish hw that was due on Friday. =-) Grace and I kept on "forgetting it at home"....... I really hate Spanish homework.


Drama today was fun. We started watching The Dead Poets Society, which I've heard was really good before today, but we only got to see 30-something minutes of it so I'm no exactly sure what the plot is yet.


Swim practice today, tomorrow, and Thursday. Tomorrow 23 comes, and maybe Remy, but he'll definitely be there Thursday, sadly. Today wasn't so bad, we did pretty mellow stuff. And Jackie's back!! =-) because track season for CPS is over (they didn't make it to NCS). And Colter attempted to flirt with her before practice. I wonder if he'll get Andrew to ask her out again (he's done that quite a few times, actually....)


Three tests today. I think I screwed up on the first part of part B on the history test, and I thought I messed up on the second part of the Science test, but Ms. Lamson showed me what I got on that after she finished grading it (I got minus zero for that part) so today wasn't that bad.


Today at lunch people started playing Zap, and then Veronica- well, Grace wrote what Veronica told her to, zapped me with SEIDO! (and someone zapped June young with 5 different girls, me, Grace, and somebody else...... Veronica zapped Kai with Jennifer, but he wouldn't ask her out.) And then before Science Rylan found out. Oh great. So then Sebastien started whispering (in the middle of the test) "Joanne, Seido completes you.", "Seido, Joanne completes you.", "Joanne, you complete Seido.", "Seido, you complete Joanne." and all that kind of crap and I got really annoyed at both him and Rylan.

Ugh

EVERYONE today was talking about Albert, Kai, and Conner. Conner said that he did it because it was "fun" and later on he said that it was funny, but fun and funny are kinda different. Huh. Yeah. sure. Sounds like a lot of fun. Kai said that the s kept on looking at him *gags*. I'm kinda surprised Kenny didn't to that, actually.........

ALL DAY people kept on telling me how Conner has a six pack and that Kai and Albert are really skinny and aren't nearly as buff as Conner.


I am soooooooo sick of people telling me that I should go out with Kenny!!!!!!!! (and that I look like a "biker chick" in Maddie's sunglasses) And it's mainly Kai. X-P So I told him that he looked cute with Chyna and he shut up.


Rylan, again, drove Saskia and I crazy, but he was moved halfway through the period. =-) But Simon's really annoying, too.

Drama

I know I probably already told you guys, but everyone says I didn't really well on my Drama thingy!! (I think it sucked, and I skipped a line) But it really wasn't that bad. The good thing is that my partner annoys me, so I didn't have to pretend to be really mad.... =-)


Small groups tonight, can't wait! And Remy decided not to show up at swimming today, so it wasn't that bad, because Peter left early, and Robbie wasn't there. And Rylan was annoying at school, but Saskia was there.

Whispers in the Dark

I think I've listened to it at least 15 times today. I really like that song. And Rebirthing.. They're both really good. P.O.D. and Pillar are pretty good, but I think Pillar's another genre.


Remy decided to show up at Swimming today, and it was really annoying, but he wasn't in my lane; I was with Amanda and Danielle. Amanda's unnaturally fast, and my foot kept cramping up...... Ha ha, Laura likes Colter! [And Jared and Ethan and Max, and pretty much anyone on JV/Gauchos/Gators who's at least 2 years older than her.] And Colter's really scared of her now. O crap. Tomorrow's Wednesday, which means that she'll be at practice tomorrow.


P.E. today really didn't make ANY sense. Really. And Mr. Gann said he'd run a lap because he made us do this retarded thing but he didn't! So it wasn't fair. Kai looked like an idiot when he put his backpack up his sweatshirt to be Louis the Fat.

In Drama I got an A! =-) (For knowing my lines) I was soooo nervous at lunch and then Kai decided to steal my script so I couldn't really practice and he wrinkled it, too. My partner wants to do lushka so we're going tomorrow. And I'm gonna screw up REALLY badly, but it's lushka which means he'll go easier on us. Thank goodness.


Rylan was impossible today! Saskia left early =-( and he didn't get anything that we were doing so I had to help him and he and Simon drove each other crazy all afternoon. He calls me Googly now and it's annoying.

Um......

Kai thinks he knows who Peppermint is and it's sooooooo annoying so Veronica came up with "Beat Up Kai Day". And at lunch all the guys were singing "The Mysterious Ticking Noise" and Potter Puppet Pals stuff (I USED to be obsessed with them, awhile ago.... Lemon Demon's cool, though.) and Kai can't sing for crap. And I finished Math hw in class today, it was really easy. =-]


The Fourth Power was pretty stupid. When Mat started whacking Sam on the back really hard and fast and yelling I got kinda scared. I think most of us did. Not a lot of FPCB people [kids] like Mat. And we played Steal the Bacon/noodle hockey. That was strange, but I did score a goal =-). And Mat kept on sucking up to his small group. Surprise surprise.


I think Saskia was ready to kill Rylan today, today he stole my binder (again!!) and scratched it up pretty bad so I whacked him on the head with it and them Ms. Lamson told Rylan off. But for some reason he's fixated on calling Saskia "blondie" and it pisses her off. A lot.


Just in case you were wondering *coughsydcough*..... Jess is Cliff's dog, and she's had multiple surgeries. I think that Cliffy's cat had cancer too and died a year ago.

Google is sexist! (my dad was doing this search quality evaluation thingy for work and he emailed me.........)

Ok, now I'm pretty pissed. Google's totally sexist!

Search:
she shoots she scores
she invented
she achieved
she suceeded
she discovered

and check the bit at the top saying "Did you mean:"

Then compare it to:
she failed
she lost
etc.

4th Power

4th Power today. I kinda don't wanna go, but I promised Maddie I would. ::sighs:: I wonder who else is going, as long as Cat doesn't show up I think it won't be that bad- then again, Mat's idea of a fun game is very different than mine (he makes us play retarded games with complicated rules and they don't make any sense.). But a little birdie ::coughmymomcough:: told me that somebody else is in charge of games on Sunday, but I'm not sure about tonight.


Rylan was super annoying (as per usual) today. Saskia and I were really ed by the end of the day; however, he only mentioned me dating someone once, so it wasn't that bad. But he kept calling Saskia blondie and stealing my binder and pen.


That thing for drama. *sighs* I have to memorize my lines by Tuesday. I know most of them, except for that reeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllly long paragraph at the bottom of page 2. I memorized half of that. Japan Report was turned in today ::grinsanddancesaroundtheroom::!! Now I don't have to have to worry about that.

Right now I'm currently obsessed (don't I sound like Alice?) with "Whispers in the Dark" by Skillet. I really don't get how some people think Skillet's emo. I also really like "Searching for Angels".


All day Kai bothered me about guess who? [If you guessed Peppermint, good for you, cause you're right.] And it was annoying, really really really very annoying. I almost slapped him after school when he asked me for maybe the millionth time this week. But it was really funny to see his expression after I reminded him that *coughcoughsomeonecoughcough* practically STALKS him...... And Maddie J wasn't that much better. I really don't get why so many people care so much; it's really bugging me.

.......................................................







And now I'm really sad; my mom just told me that Jess died. The cancer spread to her toes and they put her to sleep.

La de da da da

Swimming again today. Oh joy. Thank the Lord we had a really mellow day yesterday because there was only 10 or 12 people tops. But a lot of people show up on Thursdays, including Remy. Again, oh joy. I can't wait.


Japan Report due tomorrow. I only have 3/4 done. Some people aren't even halfway finished; but I did do all of the Ch. 14 work, instead of only going through to 14.5. At least tomorrow's back to normal, though STAR testing isn't that bad.


And I can see why Lilia said that we were immature. We put Kai's bangs up in a ponytail that stood up straight and Joun Young had two pigtail of the top of his head. They both looked like Emily, Grace's little sister. It was pretty funny, but we couldn't convince them to run at the track meet like that.

Kenny is being v.v.v.v.v.v.v. annoying today, but our moms were there, so I couldn't do anything....

Okay, so after swim practice I was sitting on the edge of the pool, talking to Danielle, and Albany was there because they don't have blocks and there's this major meet coming up.......

And Kenny and Conner were there, so I said Hi to Kenny and was talking to Danielle and Kenny said: "Oh my God! It's Joanne! You're a . For a second I thought you were a guy... Oh crap." I had a cap on, but most guys don't wear caps (Ethan and Max are VERY special people).
Later on Danielle and I were wandering around, she was looking for a friend of hers, so I went to talk to Kenny and AGAIN he thought I was a guy. I was really pissed, but my mom and Dorise were right there, so I couldn't slap him or anything. And today in Spanish he spelled "pescado" "PISSGATO". It was hilarious.


Today (and yesterday) was SOOOOOOOO hot! I really hated it, because Sydney and I had P. E. right after lunch (grrrrrrrr I really pigball. It sucks, and me being short does NOT help), and, as you guys know, our P. E. uniform is BLACK. I really love cold weather. So much fun. Also, Sydney was on another team, with Chloe...... so I couldn't complain about our being short to her. There were too many tall people on the other team. And there was a BREEZE around 3:00. Only an hour and a half too late.


And I'm kinda annoyed that everyone thinks that Seido and I would be cute together. It's getting really old and did you see him and Joun Young at the end of lunch?! (I know they're not gay, but still.)


This week in swimming we're "going to end our two week taper (here is when you hear everyone starts swearing and saying oh crap), and are going to go really strong, until NCA (or whatever it's called). Next week we're going really mellow, because Sunday around 5:00 we find out people's times." Oh goody goody. Can't wait. And tomorrow's Wednesday, which means that Laura's going to be there. I pray Remy won't.

And I got Tessa to listen to Skillet!!! They're an awesome band, and I think that it's the only Christian band she likes (besides Jennifer Knapp and Jars of Clay, maybe JoC......)

I swear I'm gonna end up killing Rylan before the month is over....

All today we would not SHUT UP about how I should go out with Seido. All period. I wanted to scream, thankfully I don't have any classes with him again until Wednesday when I have Science again. He also started bugging Saskia about how cute she would be with Craig. Ew.

It got to me so much that I took one of the really thin Science textbooks and smacked him over the head with it when Ms. Lamson wasn't looking. It effectively shut up up for a grand total of 2 minutes. I think that's the longest time he hasn't said anything the entire time I've sat at his table. And Saskia was really annoyed by the end of the day, I felt sorry for her, and for me.

In Drama I'm partnered with Rosemary Davies. Yeah, the arm girl, who can't stop waving her arm in the air when she acts. She asked me, and I felt sorry for her. We're doing Knock, Knock. I wanted to do Uncle Vanya, but..... ::sighs:: SOooooooo many people are doing Rainy Day. And Peppermint was being a perv today, sorry Grace.

La la la la la

Yes, Remy is that weird ten year old kid who has a "girlfriend". Apparently he tried to get my friends Holly and Danielle to kiss him the other day; he's psycho. And surprisingly, I am not a member of the I Have Remy Club. I think Laura would join..... if she knew about it, but I don't think that Colin and Peter (the founders) would allow her to join.

Today in Science, Seido and I were talking, and then all of a sudden Rylan screamed out that Seido and I would look cute together. The thought is just SO . And then he convinced Craig that we should go out, and they spent most of the period begging us to go out because we would win "Cutest Couple of the Year" (Besides Lily and Rylan, of course. Rylan said it, not me. I'm just directly quoting him.....). I doubt such a thing exists in AMS. There is "Biggest Flirt" which Rylan would DEFINITELY win.
Then they both proceeded to talk for 20 minutes how much I look like Kristel. Craig earlier in the year would not shut up about how similar our hair is, and now he's started up again. I sit across from Rylan and now I'm beginning to think that he'll never shut up or stop trying to tell me what to do (besides nagging me about Seido and Kristel, he lectured me on how I should date, and that "once you go out with somebody, you start seeing the world differently.") I kid you not. I think there was something wrong with him today.

Besides that, today was an okay day. My back still hurts from when Malia ran into me and hit a bone. In math we got NO TIME to do our homework, so I have to go a do that now. ::Sighs:: We're playing pigball in P.E. and I really tall people now..... The whole wear-your-shirt-backwards "club" is really retarded.
