ok, so today in anatomy we got to dissect a chicken. i know it's not that big of a deal, but it was really awesome to see all the tendons and ligaments and fossa and all that. the acl looks AWESOME! next time you get a whole chicken from the grocery store you should SOO cut it up (like a surgeon) before cooking it. my lab partners and i, when we were finished looking around at the muscles and joints and stuff, decided to open it up and look at the bones. the ribs of a chicken are really knobby. but we saw the organs (liver, kidneys, stuff like that) and...yeah. i was REALLY cool. so we were having fun popping joints in and out of place. i wonder if it was just really really easy cuz there was no head and the neck was inside and cuz it's something we eat on a regular basis or if i can really handle that kind of stuff. i guess we'll see when it comes time to do the cat! part of me is really looking forward to that 9-wk long lab and part of me really isn't. i mean, jason pittman has told me, repeatedly, that my cat's gunna wake up while i'm washing it (we have to shampoo it before we do anything to clean it, sterilize it and get all the dead flees off of it.) or when i'm going to cut it. :( even though i KNOW that can't happen (dude, these things have been dead for SOME time now) i still...yeah, i'm gunna have BAD dreams about this. oh well... yeah, i don't know why but i'm having a really hard time getting my blog page to show up, so if you read this, PLEASE email me to let me know that it's working! swimfly816@hotmail.com THANK YOU!!! i'll write again later...after bible study or after the play tonight. KATIE (W) IS GOING TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAY!!! :)

oh MAN...opening night. not too many people there. the show went pretty well. i got there late with cookies and a poster for the cast and crew, ya know, kinna good luck since it was *gasp* opening night and all. apparently they didn't like the cookies too much, but it's ok cuz i think i forgot to put something in them...OOPS! i had one and didn't relaly like it (but i never like anything i bake) and my dad had one and said it was good...big but good, so i dunno how they'll taste. if there are a whole lot of drama people missing from school tomorrow we'll say TC made them, ok? hehe!
well, chris says he and ally are official now.
let's see...i have had a lot of people recently commenting that i seem down in the dumps and totally not myself anymore. if you have gotten that impression some point, don't worry...i'll get over it. i think it has something to do with the weather...hard to be happy when it's really gloomy outside.
is it just me or does everyone seem really upset recently. and talk about under the weather.. there have been SOO many people sick from school. i dunno if they're "sick" or if they're really sick, but today was the first time almost all year tat everyone was in my anatomy class...and there aren't that many of us. but whtaever. uh...yeah. it's late, noone's gunna beable to read this anyway cuz my page is screwed up, but...yeah. have a great night!

practice tonight went pretty well. we had some really REALLY shaky starts but other than taht it was pretty darn good if i do say so myself. i'm sure we could have done a LOT better, but like mrs. frost said, we really improved everything from yesterday. we'll see how we do...GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE IN IT!!!
11:22 PM

i didn't write yesterday about play previews...probably cuz they went THAT poorly. it's probably a good thing that i didn't write yesterday cuz i was in a really grouchy and really depressing mood. oh well.
you know what's one of the best feelings in the world, i've decided? you know how after breakups things are kinna...weird for a while? well...getting over that weirdness and actually being able to carry on a civil conversation with that person is a really great feeling. random thought.
i don't remember who's blog i was reading, but somone said something (wow, so descriptive, huh?) about writing in the blog being very therapeutic. i don't do it all the time, but it's nice to know i have somewhere i can go and just BLAH to the world how i feel about stuff. i dunno if anyone ever even reads this, but...yeah.
well...i'm gunna go get ready for the LATE night rehearsal and all...

Dear American soldier,
You don't know me, but I know who you are and I will not forget.
You are deploying from Fort Carson and Fort Hood and Fort Bliss and Fort Stewart. You hail from Middletown and Middleboro and Greenville and Redding and Thousand Oaks and Maple Tree. You are white, black, brown, and yellow-but always Americans first.
You are with the 3rd Brigade Combat Team and the 10th Combat Support Hospital and the 571st Air Ambulance Medical Evacuation Company. You are with the 1st Cavalry Division and the 3rd Infantry Division and the "Iron Horse" 4th Infantry Division. You are Black Knights with the 2nd Battalion, 5th Cavalry Regiment. You are engineers, drivers and medics in the 13th Corps Support Command.
Your motto is "We Will," "Steadfast and Loyal," "Swift and Deadly," "Always Prepared," "First to Fight," and "No Task Too Tough."
You will be joined overseas by thousands of sailors and Marines on the USS Boxer and USS Bonhomme Richard and USS Cleveland and USS Dubuque and USS Anchorage and USS Comstock and USS Pearl Harbor. You will get support in the Gulf from an airborne infantry brigade, a squadron of F-117
Nighthawk stealth fighters, and two squadrons of F-16CJ radar-jamming fighters.
You have friends on the USS Constellation in the Persian Gulf, and the USS Harry S Truman in the Mediterranean Sea, and the carrier USS Abraham Lincoln stationed at Perth, Australia, and the USNS Yano en route to the Red Sea, and the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson on its way to a training mission in the Pacific.
You have classmates and colleagues and cousins who died at the Pentagon and in the Twin Towers on September 11. You have buddies who took bullets over the past year in Afghanistan and Kuwait and the Philippines during Operation Enduring Freedom. You have uncles and brothers and fathers and
grandfathers who sacrificed their lives in past wars.
Their deaths haunt you. Their heroism inspires you. Their footsteps beckon and you cannot resist.
You have wives who are tough as nails and husbands who are enormously proud. You have toddlers who know the colors of the American flag and grade-schoolers who have memorized Army verses like these:
The hardest job, the dirtiest job
Since ever war began
Is picking 'em up and laying 'em down
The job of an infantryman
No mission too difficult
No sacrifice too great
Our duty to the nation
Is the first we're here to state
Our doughboys come from Brooklyn
Our gunners from Vermont
Our signals from Fort Monmouth
Our engineers DuPont
Against the foes of freedom
We fight for liberty
We make no peace with tyrants
On land or on the sea
As you pack your green Army duffel bags, press your desert camouflage fatigues, polish your boots and kiss your families goodbye, please take these words with you:
Thank you. Thank you for answering the call to arms. Thank you for being fit and young and brave and willing. Thank you for loving freedom enough to put your own life on the line to defend it.
Pay no attention to Sean Penn and Sheryl Crow and Baghdad Babs. Tune out the half-naked loonies and Flower Power leftovers. Stand tall. Fight hard. And know that there are legions of Americans who are boundlessly grateful for what you have volunteered to do.
We know who you are. We will not forget. And we will pray every day for your safe return. Hoo-ah!
(The Department of Defense's online thank you note to the men and women of the U.S. military can be signed at http://www.defendamerica.mil/nmam.html.)

i think it's rather...interesting. most of the people who's blogs i regularly attend (that sounds kinna funny) have the same background that i do on this one. i feel like i should change my background but i kinna like it...a lot. so i won't but i still think it's funny. and to what michael said...if anyone knows (which i know some of you do) how to put the visitor thing (the counter thing) on your blog, PLEASE tell me!
today fubs, jeff, will, matt and i all went lookin for cowboy (and i guess cowgirl!?) stuff for the play. i got a hat and a belt. hehe...i look really funny in a hat...you're all gunna laugh at me if you go see the play WHICH EVERYONE SHOULD!!

so i just got home from church. for those of you who go to CGS, you know what Fr. John's homily was about. it was really really good but now i feel really really bad about all that i do. i'm guilty of almost everything he described. (i wish i had been paying more attention during the readings but i think i'm ADD and i couldn't stay focused that long this morning...plus i had just woken up 15 minutes earlier.) anyway...i hope i can be the person God calls me to be, i hope i can be the person y'all want me to be. i had more to say on this topic earlier (while i was sitting in church) but it all seems to have escaped me between then and now. anyway...have a great day! keep our soldiers on your mind and in your heart as they go fight to protect us.

"Geezers" (slang for an old man) are easy to spot:
At sporting events, during the playing of the National Anthem, Old Geezers hold their caps over their hearts and sing without embarrassment. They know the words and believe in them. Old Geezers remember World War I, the Depression, World War II, Pearl Harbor,Guadalcanal, Normandy and Hitler. They remember the Atomic Age, the Korean War, The Cold War, the Jet Age and the Moon Landing, not to mention Vietnam.
If you bump into an Old Geezer on the sidewalk, he will apologize. If you pass an Old Geezer on the street, he will nod or tip his cap to a lady. Old Geezers trust strangers and are courtly to women. Old Geezers hold the door for the next person and always, when walking, make certain the lady is on the inside for protection.
Old Geezers get embarrassed if someone curses in front of women and children and they don't like any filth on TV or in movies. Old Geezers have moral courage. They seldom brag unless it's about their grandchildren.
It's the Old Geezers who know our great country is protected, not by politicians or police, but by the young men and women in the military serving their country.
This country needs Old Geezers with their decent values. We need them now more than ever.
Thank God for Old Geezers!

oh, i wish it got less confusing but today just seems to have confused itself over and over again.
11:35 PM

ally's great! goodness...the depth of thought coming out of some people these days. i feel soo shallow! she's right...it's not so much finding a guy, it's finding "the" guy. that's the hard thing. finding him and keeping him. but (we're talking about it right now) i guess i gotta like me before i can ask someone else to like me. that doesn't take other people geting onto me about me. i gotta discover it for myself, right? i gotta find myself before any of this can happen. WOW...WHAT A PATHETIC LIFE!!!
i wonder how many people read this. (random thought, i know) seems like everyone's got one these days. hehe :)
10:25 PM
|
why are guys so confusing? or, perhaps a better question, why am i so confused by guys? someone PLEASE tell me...how do you tell the difference between someone that likes you and someone that's being nice to you. i seem to never get those two straight. i think all these guys like me (haha...i know, what a joke!) but it turns out they're not treating me any different than they treat everyone else. not only that...how can you tell if someone likes you for YOU? do you gotta just take their word for it until they decide to tell you what they really think of you or what?!
another thought...what's the "acceptable" age difference between dating guys and girls? one yr? two yrs? just how big a jump?
guess my mind's just kinna wandering today...
jeff get's a stool...no, he gets two stools! what a cute kid! : ) (who else gets one, amy????) and corley...man! i'm soo glad that he's sitting next to me again...cracks me right up, that guy! oh man...those jokes...good times, good times! hehe.
i dunno what else i did today besides bringing david's horn case to h&h cuz it's REALLY broken. the orkin guy was supposed to come today but he never showed up...stupid guy! *shaking head* boys...
so...yeah...if someone can explain boys to me...yeah. i'd really appreciate it! anything would be nice!
8:48 PM

ok, so i thought this was kinna funny. hope y'all enjoy it!
"Cash, check or charge?" the cashier asked after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As the woman fumbled for her wallet, the cashier noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"Do you always carry your TV remote?" the cashier asked.
"No," she replied. "But my husband refused to come shopping with me, so I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him."

ok, so one of my FAVORITE quotes...i found the full thing...
"I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all."
ISN'T THAT GREAT?!

blah blah blah...
well, today was one of the first days i came home almost right after school (well, 5th period) cuz i went to resend my transcript to A&M and SWT and she told me taht i needed to call the schools to see if they got them before i resend them. so i came straight home and called them and both of them got the transcripts and i got my letter from SWT a while ago (i don't remember if i wrote about that or not) and..yeah. i'm in! WOOHOO!!! but yeah, so i called and they both have the thing. i sent a new transcript out to UT today, though, and tomorrow i need to send one to blinn cuz my dad wanted me to apply there. (cuz we have an apartment up there and all...)
i also called sally baker to set up an appointment to order senior pics, so if you have any preference on pictures you think i should order you better tell me so i'll know! i gotta know by feb 12 at 1 cuz that's when i gotta be there.
i had my lesson today...i can't play my solo very well. it's not too bad, i just can't play it cuz i REALLY SUCK!! ugh...oh well. oh yeah...i ran into the door today walking into the band hall. my middle name should have been grace. (i think my parents named me wrong.)
check out my quotes for today!

oh my GOODNESS...from 1:30-5:30 all i did was tooted around on my bscl. MY MOUTH HURT SOOOO MUCH!!! it's not too bad now cuz it's had a few hours to get back to normal, but...yeah. today we didn't have any breaks at all except lunch. we usually have a few short breaks (at least one) to get some food into our systems or whatever but not today.
jeff b. stabbed me with a plastic sword he got from the dollar store today...i think i'm supposed to be dead now, but oh well. no one would care...

ANYWAY...yeah. so play from 10-12 and 1:30-5:30. i think today we're starting with the cast but i'm not sure. that would make the most sense to me (with the times and all) but...no one asked me what i thought.
oh, if anyone knows any really good ways to lose weight...feel free to pass them on over here (and i don't mean like stop eating and stuff...). umph...anyway...yeah. so i'm gunna go get dressed now and then i'm gunna eat and then i'm gunna make david practice before i leave then i'm gunna head on out! have a good day!

do you ever have one of those days where you try to get all dressed up nice so that someone will notice you...but while you're getting ready you realize that (1) you don't look the way you hoped you would and (2) it doesn't really matter cuz they won't notice you either way. then when you think you actually DO look cute...yeah...still no response. i dunno...maybe it's just me and my stupid life?! whatever.
do you ever wish you could read other people's minds? or that they could read yours? just cuz that way it's easier cuz then there's no question of feelings and all?
oh, i guess i just had a kinna blah day today. man...i've got ONE pathetic life, eh!? or do all teenagers feel like that? oh well...enough blahing for me. i'll bother everyone again later!

hey...i dunno if i've already posted this, but it's an email (joke thing) i got the other day. i sent it around already, but for those of you not on my email list...yeah! made me laugh! :) have a good day!
I've always ordered beverages one simple way: "A Coke, please."
Lately, though, this hasn't seemed to work. Waitresses now often respond, "I'm sorry, we don't have Coke. We have Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Mr. Pibb."
Tired of listening to the long list of soft drinks, I thought I'd make life easier. So one day I simply asked the snack bar clerk at a movie theater for a "dark, carbonated beverage."
The young man behind the counter chuckled and asked, "Sir, would you like a cylindrical plastic sucking device with that?"

alright...my brother got a letter the other day in the mail from our cousin. i'm just gunna type up the letter here cuz i thought it was really good. hope y'all like it too!
"i want to let you know about something truly amazing that i heard about yesterday. it made me feel so good that i want to share it with you.
just a few days before christmas, my niece who lives in oklahoma gave birth to her first child-gavin. the little boy immediately began to struggle for life, and his body turned blue due to lack of oxygen. they rushed him from the delivery room to the icu, and tests of his circulatory system showed that he was missing the pulmonary arteries which carry deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs. they rushed him to surgery where they confirmed the serious abnormality, and then quickly put him on a life flight to a children's hospital several hundred miles away. the doctors explained to his parents that they had never seen this happen before, and the he would likely die.
i found out yesterday that gavin is still alive and is improving. when the heart surgeons at children's hospital opened his chest...they were astonished to find all of the pulmonary arteries in place and working normally! there was no repairs needed. the unknown factor is only the long time he was very low on oxygen before his miraculous recovery.
the surgeons went through all of the tests and observations and examinations--and they have no explanation for how he could have lived."
so, yeah. gavin lived...they don't know how or why. i just thought it was a really cool story so i wanted to pass it on to y'all!! hope it made your day like it made mine!!!

well...tomorrow's the first day back at school. i have early release...kinna excited, kinna not. i think my mom's gunna make me get a job or something like that cuz i have an extra hour. we'll just have to see what happens, though, i guess. umph...
i can't believe i don't have anything to say. i had stuff earlier but it all seems to have left me at the moment. i'll just ahve to think of it and tell you guys whatever it was later! so...yeah! bye then!

well....today was the first day of ANNIE GET YOUR GUN rehearsal. it was...long (6 hrs) and kinna boring, but i have a "solo" so i'm not going to complain too much. at least i have more parts than derek (alto sax) does. (sorry, derek!)
i woke up this morning with a sore throat, actually i think i had it last night but oh well, and i told my mom who looked at it and said i have a swollen tonsil. she wanted me to go to the dr. at 9 so i don't get more sick if i am sick but i had to be at school at 9 so i didn't have time to go. i think i've been sleeping on my knees and ankles wrong or something, as well, because my knee really hurts today...it has been for a few days, but now it hurts to walk. ugh...i hate having stupid knees...i'm gunna need surgery if my luck is like all my elders. :( anyway...yeah. so my knee hurts and my mom thinks my ankle is swollen as well. i dunno about THAT, but...i'm gunna ice it anyway.
i'm tired and tired and very much in pain in more than one place. i'm going off to my bed to watch a movie and maybe fall asleep in peace. good night to all and i hope you have a good day!

well, once again i was up really late talking to michael. i think i finally went upstairs at 5:17 this morning. WOW! doug came into my room at 9:45-ish to tell me that we had to be at jen's around 10:30 so we could head off to ikea and get our day started. so we're driving to ikea and get off the interstate and onto antoine. driving driving driving then the WEIRDEST thing i think i've ever seen happened. there was a train at a crossing that was going back and forth. i mean, it would pull forward then turn around and go the other way right over the crossing. it was really annoying and really strange b/c...well, i've never seen a train go in reverse before. you'd think they could have done whatever they were doing when there would have been less people on the road, but... goodness we were stuck at the crossing for at least 15 minutes then we picked a different route. so enough about the train (OH MY GOODNESS IT WAS REALLY WEIRD TO SEE!!) we got to ikea about 11:45-noon i guess and were there til about 3:30. i got some lights, some shelves (if anyone wants to help me hang them let me know!), a cd thing, a BIG COMFY pillow and...some things for my section. then we went to eat something (subway) and went to some organic food store (i think) to get stuff for jen. by the time we got home from all that stuff it was 5:30 and i was almost asleep. but i got everything inside and started playing with my "new toys". when daddy got home helped me install the lights and then i had to clean my closet a little to fit the shelves in there until i get to put them on my wall. i can't think of anything else to write about right now, but i'm sure i'll have more later! hope everyone had a good day!

what do you do when your heart says one thing and your head says another. which do you listen to? which knows best? is there some middle point with love?
what is love? the dictionary says:
A deep, tender, ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward a person, such as that arising from kinship, recognition of attractive qualities, or a sense of underlying oneness.
A feeling of intense desire and attraction toward a person with whom one is disposed to make a pair; the emotion of sex and romance.
but can you put a definition to a feeling as strong as love?
what about lust?
Intense or unrestrained sexual craving.
when high-school students say "i love you" do we really mean "i lust you"? how can we tell the difference between our feelings? do i have to be attracted to someone to love them?
matt once told me there's a difference between loving someone and being in love with someone. do we sometimes say "i love you" when we mean "i'm in love with you" and vice versa? someone says they love me and i tend to think they mean they are in love with me. there's a difference i've never been able to see and i may never be able to see it with some people because of my feelings for them.
i wish i could pin-point what's making me write all this personal stuff to everyone and i can't think, for the life of me, of what it is. those very very few people who read this, feel free to email me if you have any comments on any of this. swimfly816@hotmail.com i suppose that's it on the love topic for me for a while. i have a really funny comic strip that everyone that knows me should read. (it's hanging on my door for those unlucky people who have seen my room!) I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A VERY WONDERFUL END OF OUR CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY!!!

YAY!!! hehe...i was up last night (or this morning) until 4-something talking to michael. it was an...interesting (to say the least) conversation but it was nice to actually be talking to the guy again. anyway, i finally got to bed about 4:45 or so and then got up at 11 something. nice sleep!!! hehe. so today i was supposed to write (or at least brainstorm) my essay B for UT application but instead i got on the computer and made myself a cd. i'm not a very good child, am i? :( oops... oh well. then i got a phone call from jessica saying that valerie was going to drive to the movies and they would be at my house around 3:30. it was about 2:30 before i got up off my big rump and started getting ready. i had to wrap jessica's birthday presents and take a shower and all that before they got here (not to mention having to tidy my room a bit). so when they got to my house i had just finished wrapping jess's gifts and was almost dressed (but had JUST gotten outta the shower). well, i threw on a t-shirt and my shoes and all when jess came upstairs and i was kinna ready to go. we saw maid in manhatten. it was cute! not exactly what i was expecting but im' not realy sure what it was that i was expecting so i guess it's all ok, right? THEN WE WENT TO OLIVE GARDEN!!!! (i have soo many memories from that place....) not too much happened there...EXCEPT THE WAITRESS TOOK MY BREADSTICK!!! and she kept stealing my water... ging and i were having fun making fun of some lady that was sitting next to me in the movie. GOODNESS THAT LADY WAS LOUD!!! i should mocked her but didn't want to scare, or embarras, anyone i was with. oh well. anyway...after diner we went to the mall to walk off all the extra fat miree had put on herself. (and the thought of it is making me sick.) i came home and sat around, then got on the computer and that's where i've been since. i hope everyone had at least an as exciting day as i did!
