Jon Gosselin tweets about every couple of weeks but his tweets are really sweet things about his kids or soemthing else. Most of the time i unfollow someone who doesnt tweet often but if they tweet occasionally and their tweets are rather interesting they are quite worth while. My thumb are tired so please think about this when u need something to think about. Good bye!!! :-D

Why hello there my cupcakes. I'm writing from a different environment and updating from my phone. Now that i dont have to borrow my mothers phone for things i can have mobile tweeting and blogging and all that fun stuff.
I was sitting down to enjoy some tv and do my spanish homework and i was thinking about my friend who has mobile twitter. He updates extremely often and most of his tweets are quite straight forward. No witty jokes or many links or at replies very often. My other friend has said to me that he tweets to many unnecessary and boring. And that got me thinking about how many people prefer quality over quantity. I know that i like it when people tweet often. But this also got me thinking about Jon Gosselin.

too tired to think about halloween yet

I'm very close to having 1000 songs on my ipod and i'm very excited about that. at the moment i'm listening to A Day to Remember. Likin' what i'm hearin' so far.

I am way too tired to be all "OH happy Halloween!! YAY!" i was up really late last night and i couldn't be bothered to try to be cheery.

how's this for short and sweet?
Oh heck, Happy Halloween!

i have a heluva good food baby

We had Halloween at our school today and altogether it was lame, kinda, not really. If that makes sense. I tend to use that phrase a lot and i'm not always sure if people get my drift but it seems to sum up the perfect adjective.
So yes to explain the title i ate entirely way too much chips and dip today at our party thing. It was sooo good but so bad at the same time. And there is another tub of that heluva good dip waiting for me in the fridge so i will snack later.

I have been putting some thought into what my eighth grade quote will be and i really want it to be like, song lyrics, but if it's not that it will be:
Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense
Refrigerator
I really like it but i still have to keep thinking. I completely respect the people who use "friends are like stars: you can't always see them but they're always there" and stuff like that but it's not really my thing.

Another intersting scenario for your enjoyment: So we were sitting in english class in our costumes and such and four of these guys in my class were dressed as like, lacrosse camp kids and i loved their costumes. They had socks with sandals and draw string backpacks and the whole nine yards. But they got me thinking of that cool snappy thing that people (mainly lacrosse kids when they are greeting their bro-skis) do by waving their hands around and stuff and I started asking people how to do it. And i really want to learn how because i personally think that would be a cool party trick and what not (lol). so i started trying to do it and i failed miserably at first but then i did it once and i was very proud. I need to practice a lot more before I can really wow everyone (lol again).

maybe you enjoyed that or maybe not. ok i'm going to have something healthy to eat or maybe do some sit ups. Who knows?
Happy Halloween, my cupcakes!

my my has it been a long time

I dearly wish that I could provide you with a lovely picture but I recently cleared my hard-drive of all content. and I hate it when my father has to do that be cause i lose everything. and grace knows how painful it is to lose something you worked on very hard on my computer may it be filled with lame jokes (wink wink the book). but this time i threw a fit about losing pictures and files and I ended up with an 8 GB Cruzer drive!! WIN!

as i was writing this paragraph above i realized that i missed blogging, so here's a hug for you dear blog. I missed you.

the past two months of eighth grade have flown by really. I am pretty fond of it like that.
I don't like it when things go slow.

anyway, today i was kind of bummed out because Paramore, one of my all time favorite bands is playing about thirty minutes from my house tonight. And, um, I don't have tickets becuase I checked the tour list yesterday because that's just like me to miss a great opprotunity like that so i fail. <-----also long sentence.
and in continuation of that paragraph: I just went onto the web site and the next show is in norfolk virginia and i could probably make it ther on time if i had, like tickets and stuff. but i have plans. why do i have to be so gosh darn socially active???

so in the two months that i have not blogged, my field hockey season started and ended. It was a lovely last season with the Chapel. And the last game was full of losing and crying and hugging and all that weird field hockey stuff. but yes i was quite proud of our team this year. and that petulant girl i was talking about wasn't AS bad as i described her more into the season. But she did like to talk (/brag) about herself quite a bit.

raise your hand if you have started to listen to christmas music already! *raises hand*
but it doesn't really count cause its instrumental and I listen to it when i'm doing homework.
but yes, now i must leave. i promise i will try to blog tomorrow. GOOD BYE BYE!

i enjoy the decemberists

i didn't have any other good pictures so this is my cat Carrie (a.k.a. Scary Carrie).

HOLD EVERYTHING! I just have to tell you that I started eighth grade today!! And I'm in the advanced lit class! very proud! and my english teacher was blabbering about some guy name RRRRRRRRRaul.

i still haven't finished typing in all of the mo fo songs on this dang cd that rachel gave me. and I want to finish it so i can have lots of music on my ipod. and i think i'm going to ransack my fathers cds and import them because i'm so b.a. like that. no really i need more music. i want to have at least 1000 songs by the end of september which should not be a problem considering i have a father who is very into music. <----- longest run on sentence of my life.

lol "hi i'm cosima and I want to be a swimmer when i grow up!"

so far we are going to impale charlie with hedge clippers and then douse him in lighter fluid make him a little roman candle. got it?

randomness in the blog. sewer trout.

these widgets confuse me.

this was supposed to be a blog post with a widget in it but it didn't work. huh.

i'm a trouble maker never been a faker...

I smell so bad from field hockey it's unbelievable.

But otherwise, it went pretty good. Life on the B team isn't as bad as I thought. I did pretty good with the running and stick work and all that and it was good.

There is one girl who really bothers me. Her name is Megan and she's the coach's daughter and she is so lazy I want to bishop slap her. And she just has a constant air of petulance that just gets under my skin. But anyway, I drank about five glasses of water before I went and thank god I didn't have to go to the bathroom. Unlike Zoee who had to go in the woods lol.

I'm going to New Jersey tomorrow and I'm kind of glad about it i guess. I haven't been to the beach yet this summer. I'm pretty excited about that. It's 2 hours and then an hour on a ferry. and we have to put our car on the ferry so that will be a new experience :).

now I'm going to rid myself of the stench.

better blog next time.

take me to the tracks at christie road...

That concert was amazing and it was the best night of my life. I got some really good pictures (and videos. SHHH!) and these are a few of them.

1. grace, alexa, and me in front of the tour bus.

2. billie joe on the big screen projector during before the lobotomy

3. during saint jimmy

4. during king for a day. lol rainbow sign.

5. static age

6. an amazing shot that I love. its my desktop picture
7. the VERY LAST SHOT I GOT AT THE CONCERT!!! <3<3<3

LOLA! Get me a suckah!!!

I just realized that the last three blog titles have been lines from Seussical. I deeply appologize for that.
Grace! You need to fix your blog so that I can read it. It drives me crazy that I can't know what you are doing! I can't talk to you every day of the week you know! lol But seriously!

I just might mention that I had hot dogs for lunch not knowing that we were having Polish Bratts for dinner. It was a very gross and malnurished day.
And my voice teacher over scheduled my lesson again today and my dad wasn't so happy about that. I'll give her slack because of the show and stuff. But she's gotta get on it!

I don't think I've mentioned before that I am reading the first Harry Potter book and I loooooove it! Woo! I've never read it before and I really like it. And I was watching the Prisoner of Azkaban movie and I have an anology that I have come up with about J.K. Rowling:
I think that she is just a master at literary Tetris. I mean like major high score, make all of the computer geeks cry for losing to her master. The pieces drop but she always gets them in place and makes them fit in perfect order. Every loose end gets tied up and it's all right there infront of you. You read the 7th book and everything has been explained and it hits you in the face (well, i'm assuming here since I have only read three of the books. and not even read. audiobook!).
In Prizoner of Azkaban everything is so confusing and out of place and you never know if Harry and Hermione are going to save Sirius and Buckbeak but in the end it all is amazingly resolved! She is my favorite author no question! Just reading the first page I was just amazed. That first sentence was so cute! "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much."

Haha. I'm such a nerd lol.

tomorrow is the last supper! AHHH! And the concert is in one day! I still can't wrap my mind around it at all. It will definitely hit me on the way there. And I finished my shirt about an hour ago and I love it. and the band's names are on my butt lol. I just want to eat some of those dino nuggets and see what all the fuss is about.

So you're still talking to dust? Oh that's HOT!

BACK!


That will definitely be me in the next couple of days. The concert in in 3 days!!!! AAAHHH! We went from 99 to 3 already!! Crazy!!
And just so you know, guys, I'm blowing my friend Billy's birthday party on Wednesday to go to this concert. But he was cool about it. I told him that I was going to a Green Day concert and he said "OK that's worth it!"

So why the hell is Twilight still #5 on the top movies on iTunes????? It makes me crazy!! It came out in march! Get over it! The book was poorly written and the movie was poorly made!! UGH!

Anyway enough of that shark. So yesterday and the day before I had summer band rehearsal and concert. And I had the pleasure of sitting next to a boy with an annoying voice and a vast overbite who kept turning around to talk to a tuba player named Joe about someone named "Squidward." And then at the concert he turned around to say to Joe, "Hey Joe, Squidward says that he wants to rub his balls on your face." And then the guy behind him (squidward I'm guessing) kicked him and he said "Oh yeah that really hurt." And I was so close to slapping him in the face. He was just so annoying. And I think he said something about not liking Harry Potter AND he insulted the Beatles. So I was on the edge.

So Tech Week for Seussical is in two weeks and I am really excited. And I had rehearsal to day and yesterday. But it was fun today and stuff. Although I did find out that I am wearing a hideous dress in one of the scenes and swim goggles made for a four-year-old head in another. But it was fine.

I am going to go watch some more videos and stuff.

A sea sick elephant, egg, nest, and tree!

please...get it out of my head!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

So this is what I have been doing for the past few days. Rehearsal everyday, plus I went to see the Wiz twice and it was so fun!!! I loved it. I loved Zach (HOLY SHARK DID SHE JUST SAY THAT???) and his character was HIlarious! He was so funny, and was my favorite. Tabi and Sam and Billy and Boo did amazing too. And Jennie and Gillian and Summer and Paige and Alli and all of my buddies. Oh and Anna and Shelby and Jack and all them folks. Okay enough of that.

I agree with you (GRACE) that we need to make our shirts (GAH 9 DAYS!!). We gotta get together sometime. I have off until Thursday for rehearsal. Hit me up man. (p.s. Wednesday is perfect for me.)

Yes and now I will talk about the Harry Potter movie.

I thought it was so good! There was a perfect balance of comedy and darkness and all that jazz. Tom Felton (Malfoy) was amazing. I have never seen him act like that before and he was so good. Michael Gambon (Dumbledore) was so much better in this film!! in the last films he was just so mean and Dumbledore is not mean! He wouldn't say "Don't you all have studying to do?!?!?!?" and he wouldn't yell at Harry at all. So he did good. Rupert Grint (Ron) did really good, too. I just loved his comic relief. And Lavender Brown was funny. She could have been in more of the film and been more annoying and all that but she did OK.

I didn't quite get the first scene where Harry is in the cafe thing and he picks up a girl. It kind of caught me off guard. Harry started to ask her something and she interrupted him saying "I get off at 11." or whatever. And I was laughing because I though, "Harry would never ask her that, so she must be really self absorbed or whatever." But then he smiled and I was like "Oh my gosh he actually asked her out." So yeah that was different. I guess it just wasn't Harry I thought he was or something (LOLZ LAME!) HE GROWING UP!! *TEAR TEAR*

The cave scene was amazing! I loved it so much. The potion and the basin were really cool and Dumbledore all writhing in pain was fantastic! But I hated the Inferi!! They are not supposed to be skeletons! They are supposed to be dead corpses! GRR! And the Sectum Sempra scene was AMAZING!!! And I held my breath when Dumbledore was falling. I really loved the movie over all.

Enough about that. So Seussical is good. I am so excited about it opening. I can't wait any longer!! I saw the Wiz and all I could think was, "I want everyone to see my show too!" I want people I know to come and I want to run down the hall after the show and hug them and hug all of my friends. It's all about the hugs in Talent Machine. But I can't get the songs out of my head!!!! At the Wiz all I was singing was "Tell yourself How Luck You Are!!!!!!" It was maddening. Anyway, sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Hopefully this makes up for it. BYERS!!!

Oh The Thinks You Can Think!!!

it kills me that I don't have any ideas or time to blog during the week. I have so much crap to do that I am emotionally drained by the end of the day and it sucks because I love blogging. And I'm sorry I don't update my blog as much as SOME people *cough cough* (you know who you are) but I am busy, OK???? It's just as hard for me as it is for you!...

And now that the angry rant is over It's time for excuse time!! And random narratives related to the excuses!

Rehearsals for my play are CRAZY! I had rehearsal every day last week and I finally got two days off on Sunday and Monday. I have off but the only thing I can think of is the play! And I chose to go out for a play that has the most annoying songs when stuck in one's head!!! This morning all I could sing or think or anything was: "And every Christmas time, without fail, Mr. Grinch presents his Christmas tale! I re-enact my Christmas tale!" GAH! And I went to an Oriole game on Saturday and all I could think of was "Doo doo, doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo! There once was a girl bird named Gertrude McFuzz!" It's annoying. But whatever.

To talk about other stuff I have discovered this website called Grooveshark. It's an awesome website where you can save music and stuff on play lists and everything. I find it very entertaining. Pretty much the only reason I got an account was because Ryan Ross has one and he would always twitter different song and stuff.

And speaking of Panic. I take back what I said about not being able to picture Panic without Ry or Jon. It will be cool to have two good bands instead of one. I saw one comment on PATDonline and it said that Ryan wrote all of their songs. Well I really liked I have Friends in Holy Places and Folkin' Around and I think Brendon wrote a lot of the songs on A Fever. So whatever. It will be cool. But I have to go weed the garden now.

*cry cry cry cry*

I can't even imagine it. can't imagine panic without Jon and Ryan. It's crazy.
I still haven't gotten used to it. Ok I don't have anything else to say.

How about that! Blogging before dinner!

I've been spending a lot of time with these guys lately. I'm diggin' it. Some how I can't help but notice that Brendon has voluminous lips...

Anyway, I'm actually blogging today at 5:00. I usually blog at maybe 10:00, so that's different. I guess I didn't have anything to do after I watched four episodes of Gilmore Girls. Maybe I just felt like it. I don't know.

Tomorrow is the July 4th!! Can I get a WOOT WOOT for freedom?!? I never really do much for the 4th of July. I go see fire works and then go home. And maybe sometimes we have sparklers but that all depends. On what I am not sure, but whatever. This will probably be no different.

I have a confession to make. This afternoon I watched a million videos about Miley Cyrus on YouTube. And then I proceeded to read a lot of her tweets on Twitter. I have no idea why but I have a thing for Twitter-stalking Miley Cyrus. And what is even stranger, I had seen some of the videos before. So yeah I have to kick the habbit.

I also Twitter-stalked a couple other Disney channel stars. I think I just have a thing for reading about famous people. Don't know why. Just do.

I am very anxious for Grace to watch Gilmore Girls so I can talk to her about ti because a lot of stuff happens. Lots of drama. So get on it!

HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!

I'm not complaining that it's raining i'm just sayin' that I like it a lot!

I love this picture so much. I could stare at it forever.

So I put one of my playlists on shuffle and Franz Ferdinand came on and it was funny. It was a funny song. Those british voices are just fun to laugh at. But now I'm listening to Panic. So...

I was looking at the Juicy Couture website because Grace's purse is amazing, and I found a really cool bag. It's cute. I almost put it in this post but I thought it would de-beautify the affectionate-ness of these young lovers. It didn't seem to fit.

They aren't really that young though. I was looking at a picture of Billie Joe and he has a few tiny wrinkles and I'm thinking he put on a little weight. And Adrienne is 3 years older than he is so she's like 40. Whatever. They don't seem that old though. Like, the way they act or whatever. I don't know what I'm saying...

Yesterday afternoon I did nothing but watch the seventh season of Gilmore Girls. It was pretty epic. I love the seventh season though. It's one of my favorites. I love Rory's bangs, they make her look grown up. But I hate all of the drama will Lorelai. Okay I was about spoil something for Grace but I won't. I think I'm going to go catch the end of it now.

I don't love you I'm just passing the time.

I can't think of anything to write. I've been staring at the screen for fifteen minutes and I don't know what to say.

Okay now I've got something.

I was looking at a few people's Flickr photostreams a minute ago. I don't really know who they were but they were just random people I found in the comments of certain pictures. What kind of bothered me is that some people just took pictures of themselves, nothing else. I mean you can take some pictures of your self but there are other beautiful things in the world. Go find them. I understand if you're a model or something but i just...I don't know why it bothers me. Okay forget I said anything. Take pictures of yourself. I don't care. :P

By the way I think Alexa should get a Flickr account ---> www.flickr.com *thumbs ups*

Oh yeah. So, Michael Jackson and Ferrah Fawcett died. Doesn't that suck?

I can't get over Michael Jackson dying. It's just that I was so used to him being a live. I remember when there were these documentaries or something on CNN about him. And I remember when my brother used to be afraid of him (ha, ha). I mean, I didn't think about him constantly or anything (I'm not that big a fan) but whenever he was mentioned I just automatically thought "Yeah of course he's alive." Because there was no question. When you're alive, you're alive. It is so different though. I can't get my mind around it. I didn't really know who Ferrah Fawcett was so that's why I'm not ranting about her. But they both will be truly missed. AND Ed McMahon! And I actually knew who he was. Yeah he was the "HEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRE'S Johnny!" guy. So much going on at the same time. Not good, not good.

Yesterday I went to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania. (By the way, Alexa and Grace: typing Pennsylvania I almost wrote Penisylvania) It was fun. I didn't get on any roller coasters though. I'm not a big roller coaster person. I did hang out in the water park. And I got on the Scrambler and the Howler, and the Carousel. And we went to Chocolate World. I bought a pillow shaped like a pack of Reese's cups. So that's it about that.

I feel happy. I feel happy because I was just listening to Panic! At the Diso. And their music is pretty feel good music. It just makes you feel good. And I just heard the lyrics "reinvent love." Now I get it.

I hadn't listened to Pretty. Odd. in a while so it was nice listening to it.

I just like music. It's a nice thing.

...look at their eyes, they always seem to follow...

I miss dance so much. I miss my friends. I miss my teachers. I miss crunching to good music. I miss stretching. I miss being told to put more feeling into it. I miss watching the big group numbers. I miss doing a million leaps and turns across the floor. I miss it a lot.

Classes don't start until the fall and all I have now is So You Think You Can Dance. So I have to live vicariously through that. And it's not enough :D!

So anyway, at the moment I am listening to the Chiodos album Bone Palace Ballet and I guess it's kind of good. I've listened to a few songs. I like it. I think I can get over the screaming. Again, I like it. But I think I need to go to Record and Tape Traders and get some other music. I just need something that's light. That's also why I'm importing Pretty Odd by Panic At the Disco onto iTunes so I can have that nice music. It's a good light album. I recently went to the The Hush Sound's myspace and I really liked the two songs I listened to and I really want to get more of their music. So maybe I'll mooch off of Grace's and Alexa's libraries.

I want to listen to more Muse too. I have one of their albums and I that was all I listened to for a while but then I got out of it. I always do that. Green Day puts out a new album and I can't stop listening to it and then I become obsessed and hardly know what's on the radio or in music stores. Not that it's bad I just need to broaden my tastes. I think I'll get more Beatles and classic rock too. Like I looked up a few Sex Pistols songs the other day. That's a good start...i guess?

So now I'm going to organize my iPod so I have a play list to listen to on the trip I'm going on tomorrow. So I have something to do.

title quote: Is it Progression if a Cannibal Uses a fork? by the Chiodos.

*myfingershurt*

This is my lovely guitar. I've spent the past hour trying to learn how to play one song. I was not using this guitar but I was using my brother's electric. Mine has a string missing so I had to compromise. Now my fingers hurt like the dickens. I plan on getting a new string maybe tomorrow or something so I can keep practicing. I haven't even played in forever. I took maybe five or six lessons when I was younger but I don't remember a thing.

Anyway, on to other things. It was rainy and stuff today so I was writing a lot. I got a few pages out. I have a bit of editing to do of what I have already written. Plus I have to write a lot more (if I want to make it a novel.).

I don't really have anything else to say so I'm going to go read and do other things.

BYE!!! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

This Amazing thing called Target.

I went shopping with my mom today and I went to this Target. I've been to Target before but this one was in, like, a brand new shopping town thing and it was truly amazing!!!

You need to take TWO escalators to get to the store and once you get there it's so cool!

I got some Sharpies. There were a bunch of colors in the pack I've been using them all day. They are fine point and stuff so...I just love Sharpies!

And today I also watched Grace's video and I'm thinging that this whole project is going to be pretty fun. I really want to see Alexa's video too. I'm excited to see what plans she has to be hilarious. No presure. (if you don't want to be hilarious and you're just not in the mood, don't be hilarious).

I don't think I've mentioned that I hate the formatting on Blogger.com. The margins are strange and when you set your font and color it changes when you click somewhere else. And you can't move the pictures your post in you blog. So yeah, Blogger staff get on that.

Before I end this I would like to say that I hope Grace is enjoying her new iPod and I hope that Mr. Carolin is good, Alexa. We have to hang out soon. BYE!!!

Talkin' about Speak

Truly amazing book. I'm not yet finished but as soon as I finish writing this I will go up stairs and try and finish it. There are so many beautifully worded passages and I just love how she words things. I can really start to understand the character's feelings. Now that I know what happened to Melinda I can understand why she is so scared and alone.

If you are a young adult fiction fan and you understand the whole "the birds and the bees" concept, you should definitely read this book.

And I would like to say that I hope Grace and Alexa know what their happy dances are going to be. Only about eight hours until Friday!!!

I am extremely grateful for my brother's patience. I told him he could get on the computer in ten minutes fifteen minutes ago. So I'm going to go find details about the new tiny Netbook (because my mom is considering buying me that) and then go up stairs.

Have a jokes afternoon!

~Rachel

GINORMOUS SLURPEES!!!

This was my dinner last night. It was very very very good.

Pretty much a normal Tuesday except Grace and Alexa came over. We walked to 7-11 and got HUGE XL slurpees. They were so good but so bad at the same time. It's like the Real Housewives. And we also bought a ginormous bag of chips and ate almost the entire thing. I never worry about health when I am with them.

We made our awesome YouTube channel and I can't wait to make a video tomorrow.

It's very exciting. I get to say "Hello Grace and Alexa, it Wednesday June 17th!"

Other than all that awesome shark I'm sitting knowing I have to call someone but I don't really feel like calling them. I'd rather just type and type and type. (I then give up and call this person)

I am happy because I finally got the web address for Alexa's blog and I can read in on her thoughts. LOL. I find that chick pretty dang hilarious.

I really need to find some new music to listen to. I ask Grace and Alexa now to burn me some CDs of music that they think I like. And I add the word PLEASE because I really want some new music! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! All I've been listening to is Green Day. And I love them and find it appropriate to listen to them consider there are 45 days until the concert. But I want something more! I need something new. I've considered raiding my brother's CDs but I don't particularly like all of the screaming. So HELP!

I can't stop fooling with my eyelashes. Alexa decided to give me a makeover and loaded up on the mascara. They're all clumpy now. They looked good when she put them on but they have kind of congealed and are all gross.

So I hope you've enjoyed looking at my dinner.

This one's for the RustyWallaceSisters.

So these are our seats. Good? Bad? You tell me 'cause I'm in the middle.

Just talkin' about mah Johnny boy.

For some reason whenever I hear about, or read about, or meet someone named John, I always call them Johnny Boy. For instance Johnny from The Outsiders, and Johnny Depp. No idea why. And one of my favorite fellas named John is maybe this guy.

So tonight I drank three caffinated sodas so I think I'll be up a while. But I have to make this quick.

I've been straining so hard to come up with a good idea for a novel. I've always wanted to become a YA novelist and be famous and stuff. Well not exactly be famous (just to matter). I would just want someone to read my book and experience my ideas. I've been writing since the day I picked up my fat red pencil in kindergarten. I have so many stories in my brain and some on paper. I have so many ideas for videos on YouTube and all that but I just don't know how to express it.

I could be expressing something now as I'm writing this blog. I just don't think any of this would make a very good novel. But this blog is just me writing what's popping into my head on the spot and many books are like that. All of those books are usually in the first person. Random images spewing out of the author's head and onto the page. I find it truly amazing.

Now, at 10:13pm, June 13, 2009, I realized how many unique, creative influences I have. But I'm sure that most of my creative juices come from reading so darn much. And from my friends and from inspirational videos (i.e. The Beckoning of Lovely). But just trying to work all of this information being thrown at me into one relevant idea is so difficult.

Maybe all of these thoughts are a bit up close and personal with my funky little brain but I'm just writing what I feel. So I'm going to stop oozing boring stuff and go read some more.

thanks!

Generation 14...?

isn't he a doll?

i have pictures to upload so i'm gonna make it quick.

so yesterday I went to get the new Green Day cd with my two favorite buddies and it is magnificent i must say. We've waited five years and I think it was worth it, you must agree.

i'm kind of mildly annoyed with all of the main stream clothes and trends. I was reading my friend Grace's blog and she was talking about all the summer things that are goin' on right now. I have to agree with her when she says that she enjoys the classic looks. I'm catching what you're throwing Grace.

so if you have some free time on your hands I suggest you go read her blog.

My friend Alexa has a blog too but I have yet to figure out the URL so i'll get on that.

i hope all you out there are having a snazzy time doing that thing you do.

That thing you do...Wasn't that a great movie? I loved that movie. Shades was pretty groovy.

today's quote: "Dying. Everyone's reminded. Hearts are washed in misery, and drenched in gasoline." ~Before the Lobotomy-GD

I hope you enjoyed the many a color today. i thought it added a little something extra. Ha, ha.

BEST WISHES!

We've waited five years!!!!!!!!!!!

tomorrow i shall hold this in my hands and shout "THEY'RE BACK!!!!!!" that is was I declare.
I seriously do not believe it. I waited so long and now its here!!! I know I'm gonna cry, i just know it.
and I listened to some of the songs on GDA and they are amazing!!!
ah...whole again...<3

"please speak softly for they will hear us, and they'll find out why we don't trust them..."

the lovely album you see here to the left is amazing. I am in love with this lovely album.

just bored and wanting to be creative but I have no inspirational juices. this is very frustrating.
I have so many ideas in my head but I can't seem to put them out into this lovely world we have here.
other than being annoyed with my imagination I seem to be very attached to my b-e-a-UTIFUL iPod sitting here on my lap (whose name is Alfred). I don't even have my head phones plugged in but i am just sort of cuddling it (forgive the expression). i just added the lovely album to the left to Alfred and he is very satisfied with his musical snack.
many metaphors in today's story of Rachel's insanity.
i need more music in my life! I need it. All I have right now is Paramore and Avenue Q! That is not a healthy match! Yes I have many other things on my iPod named Alfred but I don't want to listen to them! I am too busy listening to Paramore!!!! I need...i don't know! I have heard of a hundred bands but have failed to check them out! It annoys me.
anyway, i'm going to go attempt to be creative now.


today's snazzy little title quote is brought to you by: "Conspiracy by"... you guessed it! PARAMORE!

"...cause we are broken, what must we do to restore, our inocence..."

So if you've watched some of my videos on YouTube then you know that I went through a Sweeney Todd kick for almost three weeks. Well this time its a Paramore kick. The only I've been listening to is for the past two days is Paramore. I love Paramore. I haven't listened to all of the songs on All We Know is Falling but Riot! is amazing!!!!!!
For lack of anything else to talk about, on Twitter I'm trying to get at least 300 tweets by tonight. I know that is really pathetic compared to most YouTuber people online, but it will be an accomplishment for me. I mean charlieissoicoollike has like a thousand tweets. I want to have that many tweets...
I hope everyone had a really Great Easter!!! I hope everyone got a lot of candy. I didn't get a lot of candy but I got enough...you know don't want to break out my face. That myth isn't really true...about how chocolate breaks out your skin. Yeah we all saw that Differin commercial.
Okay byers!!!!!
~Rachel!!

"sugar cane in the easy mornin', weathervanes my one and only..."

I was reading my friend's blog and I can't get over how awesome this picture is.
I'm just sitting here and no one else is awake except for my mom and me. And my brother is probably going to sleep til noon. but I don't care 'cause yesterday was his birthday and he's going to be so jet lagged tomorrow.
I really want to find out when tour dates are going to be released for the Green Day tour. I'm not planning anything else until I have ordered the tickets.

Other than all that I'm kind of nervous about my audition tomorrow. I've been practicing my song a lot and I'm sure I'll do fine but my friends are going to be in the same audition slot as me and I'm happy about that and all its just a little weird sometimes.
longest run on sentence of my life.

and I really want to hang out with my friends as much as possible before the end of the year. There is only like 40 something days left of school and then I will cry in the parking lot and be sad...until the day we go to the GREEN DAY CONCERT!! that's going to be amazing...can't even explain!!!

BEDOODOODOODOO!

Jam-packed Sunday

WHY AM I WRITING THIS?!?
I am have so much to do today!!! And I bet that I could benefit from not writing this blog and go do my homework or make my audio track that I have to record. But Instead I'm posting a blog.

I was thinking about BEDA, or Blog Every Day in April created my the young adult novelist Maureen Johnson. And I realized...that I could NEVER do that! I have way too much going on in the month of April. With spring sports and dance classes and school which is the worst...I just don't have much free time.

I'm thinking this post is going to be very short because I don't really have much to tell you other than my work with Blue Squid Productions is going SO well, it's not even funny. Once I finish posting this I have to go record and an audio track/video for Doug and one os his other Blue Squid Projects. And in the next coupole of weeks e are working on our Christian video series and choosing who gets what part and so on and so on. I am so excited about all of it. It makes me happy to think about!

I must go record audio tracks now.
GOOD BYE!!!!!
13 days!

Sadness and other stuff...

I don't know if anyone reading this knows of "Wizard rock" but I am sad right now because of something to do with it.
Wizard rock is music about Harry Potter and being a HUGE Harry Potter fan, I love it.
One of my favorite w-rock bands, The Parslemouths, is made up of Kristina or italktosnakes on youtube and her friends Brittany and Eia. I LOVE THE PARSLEMOUTHS!!! And Today I found out that Brittany quit the band! I love all three of them and I'm sad that she's not in the band anymore. She was REALLY talented and I'm SO sad to see her go! So yeah that sucks...
Anyhow...you should go subscribe to Kristina because she rocks!
Anyway...I guess that's it. I don't have anything to say.
BYE!!!!
P.S. 17 days!!!!!!! (u know who u r)

Randomness Blog!!!

Hello!!!
If you had no idea what the last blog post was about, then just ignore it. My friend was feeling sad and Jackson Rathbone is her favorite actor from the Twilight movie.
I have been super busy lately mainly because:
I had standardized testing all this week at my school. I absolutely hate testing at my school. It is extremely tedious and boring.
Also because I had lacrosse practice a lot this week and I had many family matters this week and its getting very stressed and everything like that.
And (this part is really crazy) my brother is going to Korea (South) for Easter break. I am still surprised! So we have to get ready for all that stuff.
Reading Update:
I have finished This Lullaby and I am now reading The Sun Also Rises by Earnest Hemingway.
I am only in the second chapter. But it is pretty good so far.
Production for the New Blue Squid Project is going well and we will be staring further work on it soon.
So yeah...this post was pointless.
BAI BAI!!!

Feel Better Summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

feel better Summer!!!!!

Blue Squid Productions

I know I said in my last post that I have been busy. I just wanted to inform everyone on what I have been up to.
What I've been working on almost everyday is a project with my friend Doug. Click on the link and you'll see his blog. We are currently working on a Christian Children's video series. He has launched a group called Blue Squid Productions. This project only consists of him and me right now but we are bringing on some new people soon. We are producing this Children's series to teach kids about God and His eternal plan for us. We both feel that the junk they play on television nowadays works mostly against the Bible, whether it be intentionally or just working with what is "in" or "funny." We want to instill in kids how God wants us to behave and act. Everything we do is for Him. That's the main mission for this project.
I can't disclose the title or anymore specific details about the show, because Doug wants to announce all of the information on his blog: http://www.doughanna.wordpress.com/, also linked above. Report there for any updates. I'll try to inform you on whats going on every now and then.
You can reach Doug at his blog or: bluesquidproductions@gmail.com

Like I said in my last post, I was working on my play all last week.
As for this week, I have had lacrosse practice for my school along with my weekly dance lessons at my local dance studio. Now that the play is over I have a little more free time but lacrosse has added more to my plate.

My New Year's resolution for 2009 was to read a book a month, totaling to 12 books this year. It does seem very easy and I could probably knock it all out over the summer if I wanted to. "If I wanted to" are the key word there. I have done four books so far. They were:
Multiple Blessings by Kate Gosselin and Beth Carson
No Promises in the Wind by Irene Hunt
the Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld.
I enjoyed all of them very much. I am now reading This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen. It is SO good so far and I recommend it to any teen aged girl. However, if yo are under the age of say...thirteen you shouldn't read it without parental consent (I sound so conservative in this post!).

Okay I'm going to stop rambling on about nothing.
Good-bye my cupcakes!
~Rachel

BUSY BUSY BUSY!

I am sorry I have not made a blog post in a very long time. And who am I apologizing to? No one will ever read this blog. I gotta remember to link to it on one of my videos on YouTube.
Any way the reason why I haven't made a post in a while is because I had my play last weekend. I was in the production of Annie at my school and tech week was brutal! I was planning make a blog post last week but I was way too busy.
The crazy thing is that I think someone posted to performance on YouTube. Which is illegal.
I haven't watched it yet so I don't what its like or anything.
I posted another video on my personal channel: www.youtube.com/joswhatsernameS2
its about my play and Sweeney Todd which is my new favorite movie! I am staring to get the feeling that I am obsessed with it. I talk about it all the time. And today I was reading Entertainment Weekly and I saw a picture of Johnny Depp and I FLIPPED!
Well enough of all that.
bye!!!

JackoRathbone!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I went ton to check my email and I was an eamail from YouTube.
I opened and it said:
JackoRathbone has sent to a message.
Now my friend Gillian who I share a YouTube channel with messaged him and friend requested him.
I was totally hyperventalating when he sent us the message! And i am so excited!!!!
Ok I will stop boring you!

New Haircut!

Today is awesome because:

yeah today i got my hair cut like Alice Cullen from the Twilight series! I love it! It is awesome!!

It is spiky and Alice-ish and I have a Jasper shirt to match! All i need is a Porshe and nice clothes!

GILLIAN AND SUMMER ARE SPENDING THE NIGHT TONIGHT! YAHOO!!!!!!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK! Bye! I know that was a boring blog post but whatever!

Bingo Night!

OK i haven't posted a blog in a very long time and I apologize (to no one!).
I need to make a video plugging the blog or something! I am getting zero followers! Same on Twitter!
Anyhoo, I am going to bingo tonight with my friend Gillian! It's at my school and they have it a lot and I've never been to one before. Kids aren't really aloud to play (which sucks because i love bingo) so Gillian and I are helping make food and stuff. I have no idea what so ever if this is going to be fun.
In other news, my friends and I made another YouTube channel. Its called xFanpireProductionsx and can be found at www.youtube.com/xFanpireProductionsx
It's basically just a million videos about the Twilight series. If you're into that then It's the channel for you. Ha, ha! That was a really lame line! "It's the channel for you!"
When I a million videos I mean three so far. We haven't uploaded many videos but we have more videos coming up.
I have an idea to do book recommendations on this blog. That would be cool. I could recommend books and those nonexistent people who read this blog will tell me what they think. Yes I am thirteen and the books I read may not appeal to everyone (who's everyone?) but it would be fun and uneventful!
Yeah I think I'll wait on that once I get more subscribers and followers.
So yeah, bye i guess.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I want to post a video on YouTube but I'm afraid they will suspend me. Even though it's my birthday and all I was on YouTube a whole year before I turned thirteen. Please don't tell on me!!
OK so today was my birthday! I had a good day. My friends brought me balloons! YAY! I love balloons! My friends are so nice and I love them! B-day party is tomorrow! WOO HOO! I am so excited!
I don't know what else to say...going to go work on my video now! bye!!

This is getting old...

Is it exciting that I have another snow day today? No? That's what I thought.
Another day trying to find stuff to do.
I could make a TO DO LIST!
To do list:
Robert Pattinson
Taylor Lautner
Cam Gigandet
Was that funny? I didn't think so. Yes I know those guys are all from Twilight but i also have some that aren't from Twilight...
That guy who plays Jim on the Office! oh yeah sexy!
OK I'll stop now.
So tomorrow's my birthday! the 1 3! OK I'm getting bored now...
BYE!

SNOW DAY!

HOORAH for new fonts!
So today I don't have school because of snow! The snow is pretty. Its falling.
Anyway, so yeah I am having trouble finding stuff to do other that read and watch YouTube videos. I love YouTube and all but none of my subscriptions have made videos and I can't think of any ideas for a video myself so I'll probably just blog for the rest of the day. So you'll hear a lot from me today.
I could go for a walk, even though it's really cold outside.
I could finish my knitting that I'm working on. I could call my friends and see if they want to come over. I could do a lot of stuff but I'm too lazy to do them. So anyway...ok bye!

I'm a Twilight Fan OKAY!?

So today I woke up and I'm listening to the radio and the person says "Major actor confirmed for the new Twilight Film." So I AM FREAKING OUT! So after the commercial they anounce that DAKOTA FANNING IS PLAYING JANE IN NEW MOON!!! I was so excited! She is going to be awesome! Tell me what you think about it.
And I was also freaking out today when I saw Jackson Rathbone (Jasper) on the Proactive commercial!! I was like "OMG ITS JACKSON RATHBONE!" It took me a second to figure out who it was because he had short dark hair. I love his dark hair but the blonde works for him.
As my friends would say "he has been blessed by the hair gods!"
please comment!
BYE!

The Amazing Homework-filled weekend!

YAY! First blog post!
This is my first blog, and I guarantee I'll be pretty bad at blogging.
I guess I'll just say that I'm a normal teenager. I think I get on the Internet more that any other teenager I know. I have a YouTube account : joswhatsernameS2 I have a twitter: Death_Eater129 and now I have a blog.
Anyhoo, I have soooo much homework to do this weekend.
I have a research project that's due on Monday and then I have to arrange a prayer service for Religion class.
My research project is on the Great Depression. It's more specifically about the Works Progress Administration (WPA). I must say the actual work is pretty boring but the information is very fascinating. The WPA helped so many people get jobs in the Depression. They saved lives!
OK I'll stop rambling about dorky stuff now. *points to self* nurd!
Speaking of nerds...
I would also like to say that I am a nerdfighter. I subscribe to the vlogbrothers on YouTube and I think that they are absolutely amazing! They are hilarious. If you don't know what I'm talking about then go to www.youtube.com/vlogbrothers. They will make you laugh so hard!
Anyhoo, I hope everyone (who's everyone?) has a good weekend!
joke of the day:
A grass hopper walks into a bar.
The bartender says "Hey we have a drink named after you!"
And the grasshopper says "You have drink named Larry?"

BYE!
