the first english muffin that i have ever eaten [with raspberry preserves]. the experience was a pretty good one. :D

1. straight superiors @ band festival. "can i get a woop-woop?"
2. to kill a mockingbird is fantastic. finally, a "classic" i can actually get into, you know what i mean?
3. my sister's got a chorus recital tonight + they're supposed to wear sunglasses for something. i told her to wear shutter shades, but she refused. :[
4. I'MMA BANANA I'MMA BANANA I'MMA BANANA...LOOK AT ME MOVE!!!!
5. i had my newspaper interview today; i gotta say it was iffy. :

sorry for the lack of updates. the past week can only be described as rotten (in terms of personal, free time, especially for blogging).

A. my post-painted room! i have plans for further decoration, but that will have to wait (dang it).


















B. i created a website for my chemistry project about marie curie.

C. i've acquired a very painful sore on the back of my neck. recent investigation has put 'sleeping awkwardly' as a suspect. stay tuned.

D. friday was our band evaluation performance. we went to mceachern high school, which seriously has the sickest campus in the entire universe, where we played three songs that were evaluated by judges. what's kind of disappointing though is we don't know our scores yet.

E. to commemorate the first day of spring (the weather was absolutely perfect today! (praise God!)

F. the girl scouts father/daughter dance was this evening as well. i'm not in girl scouts, but i somehow always find myself at all of the events, with no one to hang out with. :(



G. the books we've been reading in literature recently are very thought-provoking. we read anthem and the hunger games, and they both are tied with totalitarian governments, independent thinking, and resourcefulness. the minds of the main characters in those books really aren't terribly exceptional, especially katniss in the hunger games, but the main idea they cling to, about self-worth, is very interesting and quite inspiring.

one word: i have way too much chem schoolwork/homework, as well as math, MATH UGH STUPID HYPERBOLAS WHAT THE CRAP that i can't really do much of anything (including blogging, much less make my blog look stunningly gorgeouso, but you know, it never really was) but to stay glued to my desk and computer, figuring out titration equivalents, and message my aching neck as i sit, scrunched over, for hours on end.

...phew.

prix-paint.





we're painting my bedroom finally! the paint's "cafe' cream", and i'm love-love-loving it so far. the pink/purple walls before were not exactly my thing now (nor were ever really :]), but after many hours of back-breaking + blood-letting labor, it's almost finished! stopped for today, but it will be done tomorrow, guaranteed.


my friday night consisted of the production of a very fun video (exhibit a), pizza, and some harry potter. i fell asleep through the first couple minutes, but young daniel radcliffe as some 13/14 year old boy in the first movie was so adorable. i woke up saturday and stripped my walls of all photos/frames/post-it notes so we could start painting. my mommy and i went out for japanese for lunch (some of the best i've had in a long time) and we started painting at around three. i hope i'll get some much- needed rest tomorrow on God's day.

EXHIBIT A.

refrain from puking, smashing head, snorting arsenic, etc.

"l-o-g-a-n l-e-r-m-a-n!" is the most attractive boy on the face of this planet.

my name is flint. i love sunshine and long walks.

//today was the academic pep rally! the theme was 'Lassiter's Got Talent' with judges and a huge banner i was able to help paint. plenty of fun acts (including mrs. cook, my science teacher, aka grumpy, grouchy chemist, dancing happily like she was galloping in a meadow of daisies; my classmate with sweet robot dance moves; and better juggling than i could do in a million years. i was part of the little group of people in Renaissance in black shirts that enthusiastically clapped and hollered our lungs out at every single, little thing. i am so blessed to be part of an organization that loves to be excited and show it! unfortunately, no pictures now, but maybe later.

A list of some things I need/want at the moment:

- a foreign pen pal to write snail mail with + learn sweet new cultures,

- my driving permit (why am i complaining? hahaha),

- a better math grade,

- to be more social, friendly, and optimistic,

- toothpaste,

- a better body + the determination to achieve a better body :],

- WARM WEATHER! IT'S TOO COLD

thankfully, i'm able to recognize which ones i have control over. things that i want most, like warm weather so i can ride my bicycle and read outside and just wear summer clothing, i have none. how sad and ironic.

i just realized how insane acoustic music is. at the pep rally, a guy came out to sing roll away by back door slam (check it, it's a sincerely beautiful song) and i just melted. everything about that acoustic guitar is homey and free.

{ hello, europe. }

//writing a blog again is sort of coming as a shock, since i haven't spent time to really make my blog beautiful for like, 7 months. i'll have to learn to get back into a good routine. this is a pretty map of europe to mask the the real pain-in-the-butt that we have to learn in world history. ffffuuuuuuuuuu~

{ le kissaway trail. } i cannot stop listening to their new album sleep mountain. it makes me want to fall in love.






{ mat kearney. }
