Good thing Cornell's a closet Democrat (May it be added that my father, the psycologist, sent this to me):


REPUBLICANISM SHOWN TO BE GENETIC IN ORIGIN
The discovery that affiliation with the Republican Party is genetically determined was announced by scientists in the current issue of the journal NURTURE, causing uproar among traditionalists who believe it is a chosen lifestyle. Reports of the gene coding for political conservatism, discovered after a decades-long study of quintuplets in Orange County, CA, has sent shock waves through the medical, political, and golfing communities. Psychologists and psychoanalysts have long believed that Republicans' unnatural disregard for the poor and frequently unconstitutional tendencies resulted from dysfunctional family dynamics -- a remarkably high percentage of Republicans do have authoritarian domineering fathers and emotionallydistant mothers who didn't teach them how to be kind and gentle. Biologists have long suspected that conservatism is inherited. "After all," said one author of the NURTURE article, "it's quite common for a Republican to have a brother or sister who is a Republican." The finding has been greeted with relief by Parents and Friends of Republicans (PFREP), who sometimes blame themselves for the political views of otherwise lovable children, family, and unindicted co-conspirators.
One mother, a longtime Democrat, wept and clapped her hands in ecstasy on hearing of the findings. "I just knew it was genetic," she said, seated with her two sons, both avowed Republicans. "My boys would never freely choose that lifestyle!" When asked what the Republican lifestyle was, she said, "You can just tell watching their conventions in Houston and San Diego on TV: the flaming xenophobia, flamboyant demagogy, disdain for anyone not rich, you know." Both sons had suspected their Republicanism from an early age but did not confirm it until they were in college, when they became convinced it wasn't just a phase they were
going through. The NURTURE article offered no response to the suggestion that the high incidence of Republicanism among siblings could result from their sharing not only genes but also psychological and emotional attitude as products of the same parents and family dynamics. A remaining mystery is why many Democrats admit to having voted Republican at least once -- or often dream or fantasize about doing so. Polls show that three out of five adult Democrats have had a Republican experience, although most outgrow teenage experimentation with Republicanism. Some Republicans hail the findings as a step toward eliminating conservophobia. They argue that since Republicans didn't "choose" their lifestyle any more than someone "chooses" to have a ski-jump nose, they shouldn't be denied civil rights which other minorities enjoy. If conservatism is not the result of stinginess or orneriness (typical stereotypes attributed to Republicans) but is something Republicans can't help, there's no reason why society shouldn't tolerate Republicans in the military or even high elected office -- provided they don't flaunt their political beliefs.
For many Americans, the discovery opens a window on a different future. In a few years, gene therapy might eradicate Republicanism altogether.
But should they be allowed to marry?

Jeez~ I haven't updated in years. Sorry kiddos. This week was really long and there was too much homework for words. Soooo lemme think about what happened. Wednesday after school I went over to Kim's house to get my brother but he wasn't home so I hung out there until my mom could come pick me up because I was too lazy to walk. She took me shopping and I had soooooo much homework I was freaking out because I had to get home and then we went out for subs and I got a chicken finger sub!!! *drools* why do I love chicken so much? So then I did homework until like, midnight. Oh yea, and there was this surprise government test thursday that no one told me about and I freaked out and did really bad. I had a WWII midterm Wednesday and Thursday but they weren't too bad, I got a better grade than any kid who took it last semester and I only lost this semester to Greg Kaufman and Mike Novo and I tied with Chris Niesser (sp?) anyway. I was kinda bitter but I guess its ok because its like a 90. Why does Meetze think he's teaching a real class??? Ah well. Thursday was a pretty bad day because I woke up at 4 in the morning and realized that my spring break was going to be the worst one in history and that my birthday's going to SUCK bigger than you can possibly imagine and I started crying and I couldn't get back to sleep and then I got to school and we had this horrible government test and Mr. Stuhmiller wasn't even there and we forgot to go to economics review and it was just pretty bad most of the day. Study hall was nice to have for the first time in sooo long, but Kim and Liz were taking their calc tests and Marie and Mark were out so I was pretty lonely and then I went down early to see if I could see Brian before he went in to take the calc test but I missed him so I waited for him to get out and then Mark gave me a ride home which was nice and then Liz and I had our guitar/harp lesson and then we went to Subway for dinner and then we met Kim and Sarah for a French party at Starbucks and we got yelled at because we're not allowed to take pictures in Starbucks because its the center of a drug center. Not that I'm bitter because that's our spot, but whatever. So then I cleaned my room and watched to see if John was going to get shot down on American Idol and he wasn't even though he forgot the words. lol, john...why do you exist? And I studied for that economics test and was happy because I never hafta read Heart of Darkness ever again. NOBODY LIKES YOU HEART OF DARKNESS. And then Friday (finally!) was the end of the marking period which is toooo scary for words! I had the economics test which I got 11/12 and was really really happy and then choir and english where we had a horrible essay which was really bad about a really bad book. Then in Anatomy we finished up our cat dissection which is by far the only reason I took that class and we ended up finding a total of 7 ringworms in its large intestine and then we were the only group that was working so we didn't really know what to do so we ended up just taking out all the organs of the cavity (except the stomach which we took out the other day and the large intestine) and it was really fun. Then we finished up our French project in French (w00t Elric being a Fencing superstar for our book!!) and then we got our grades and projects in WWII cuz that's a real class then we finished our sheet in math and then we played a really pathetic game of ultimate frisbee against the jock team in our class. Who invented ultimate frisbee anyway?? Oh yea and the best part of my day was that I wore a really funky outfit starting with the socks that Mark bought me in Spain last week because he's awesome and they were really funny and awesome and now I have socks from four different countries (none of which are Canada--USA, France, Belgium, and Spain--and if I buy some in Canada and then if Liz buys me some in Mexico for my birthday then I'll just have the most international socks in the world!) Anyway that was awesome and then after school we had a meeting of Marie's gold award project and I told Mr Weber about my cat intestine and he became pale and it was awesome. hahahaha. So yea. Then I went to Kim's because it was raining and I didn't want to walk home and her mom dropped me off after Kim went to her Japanese lesson and then some of us went out for Chinese food and then later a lot of people came over to my house to "have a graduation party meeting" which then took the form of gossip (I hafta be nice to mike now :( ) and cards. Most people left around 1. **ANNOUNCEMENT** the Graduation party will be Friday, June 25. so yea. Then Saturday I went to Marie's thing which went really well then we went to Quiznos where I had an AWESOME sub. That was really good. I like Quiznos. Then I went over to Brian's where we watched some tv and "Lost in Translation" and then Erik, Marie, and Mark came over and we watched "The Count of Monte Cristo" and Brian and I are the most boring people in the world but I love him soooooooo much anyway. So then Sunday I slept until noon and then I went out to BJs with my dad and there were some people there and I overheard them speaking in French and I started freaking out to my dad so he made me talk to them and there was a girl and her parents who must have been visiting her and I guess they were from Paris and we talked about my trip and they were very nice and they said that I spoke French really well and the lady was like "tu comprends tout que je sais?" and I was like "oui" and she said something I didn't understand and I felt really dumb but then I understood everything else. Gah. Whatever. It was really fun. I miss French people sooo bad!! Ok now I guess I'll do gov homework or something. Blah!!
Leave comments!

hahaha anyway.
So Monday I had karate club after school and then I went over to Brian's to teach him and Steve all about Cuba. I left around 8 and finished up Model UN stuff.
Tuesday was Model UN. And Steve didn't show!! Poor Brian got forced into doing it and then he didn't have a partner!!!! I'm sorry!! But it was fun. Marie and I were so awesome--well, Marie was. Our resolution lasted for about 3 hours. We didn't get practically anything done on the second resolution and nothing at all on the third. We made some new friends like Costa Rica from WSW and stuff. Janet Hirsh and Karen Oddo were Spain right in front of us and it was nice to see them. I hadn't seen Karen since 3rd grade GT (we freaked out about Katlyn together) and I hadn't seen Janet since girl scout chorus (but before that since 4th grade when we were in GT together) so that was nice. They're real smart and won, but we really should have come in second at least. While Marie was walking around doing useful stuff, I walked around and found prey in little lonely looking people and I would look at their name tag and be like "Hi, Argentina?" "Yes" "Hi, I'm Cuba." "Hi" "So, how are you feeling about this resolution?" "Its ok" "Argentina, did you know that you have 150,000 people in your country with AIDS/HIV?" "Uh......yes." "Yea, well did you know that Cuba has made a vaccine that can be used against AIDS/HIV and when this resolution is passed you'll be able to save these 150,000 people? You DO want to save these 150,000 peoples lives, right?? right??" "Yes!" And they always ended up supporting our resolution! It was like magic!! I heart that sheet of facts we brought! Well, the biggest problems were the UK and Denmark. Denmark, I was like, who needs them? So I pull out my sheet and I see the worst fact I could find about their medical community...their life span is .04 years less than that of the USA!!!! Whoa, shot down Denmark!! So I decided not to mention that. And we had some good stuff on the UK but the guy was this jerk that just kept mentioning how our resolution would infringe on copyrights. He gave the same speech 100 times!! So finally Yugoslavia (formerly Israel) got up and was like "you're stupid UK" (not his exact words) anyway so I'm doing my persuading and I walk up to this group of kids who look like pushovers and I'm like "hey" but I can't read their nametags and I don't recognize them because they'd only been up to speak once and they were like "USA" I was like "OH NO! THEY'VE CAUGHT MY COMMUNIST TRICKS" So I'm like "uh, nice to meet you! bye!" and they're like "Wait, who are you? What did you want to say?" I was like "nothing, no, I'm just checking up to make sure everyone's supporting this resolution, answering questions, you know" and they're like "oh, we don't know. We haven't read it. We're just doing whatever the UK says" So I'm like "uh, ok...." whoa. the USA sucked. I guess that's why St. Joes is always the US. (Ewwww Mr Perfect!!) So I didn't hafta tell them I was Cuba! So then our resolution passed!!! YAY!! And we had the same Chair as last year who we like! He looks like Tommy Smith (THE PEANUT GUY) hahaha. Well, he does! UNIONDALE!! Anyway!! Chelsea Longberger was India! That was nice to see her!! So Iran and us were passing notes at the end of Model UN and it went like this:
"Hi Cuba - Iran"
"Hi Iran! How are you? the US sure stinks, huh? -Cuba"
"Tell us about it!" and at this point the stupid UK guy had just gotten up to argue against an amendment to the thousand page long Syria resolution saying it would make it too long and wordy so I had taken notes about it.
"Ok, I will! This amendment is too confusing for the stupid UK/USA Powerhouse" hahaha. The Iran guys laughed alot. It was really funny. I guess you had to be there and see how much we hated the UK. We're such nerdy losers.
Well this conference was really nice and the kids were really nice and this was the first year we hadn't gotten mean notes!!! I mean we had been real obnoxious and all but yea... so here are the best quotes of this conference:
"CONNER IS NOT THE FUHRER!" -Nate
"Sorry I'm late, I was yelling at Mongolia"- Brian
and the note that gets Model UN the nickname "Nerds Love Nest" (This is not Les Amis Love Nest!!):
"Resolution for the Cuban girls phone numbers" hahaha it was really funny. We got it and it was from Saudi Arabia (I have no idea who they were) and Marie was writing back that we both have boyfriends, but the conference broke up and then some girls walked up to us and were like "some guys from our school were wondering if you got their note?" And Marie was like "we have boyfriends" and they were like "awww, ok thanks." It was really funny. Especially since Brian was right there! lol. (hey its a step up from "I have a big dick do you like sex?")
Oh! And there was a guy from E. Amherst who looked JUST LIKE Elric most of the time! (those two were NOT RELATED)
Anyway Tuesday night was fencing. A lot of people were there even Ciara!!! I love her!! She's so much fun!! She's home for a month from her British boarding school. So Liz and I had a sabre lesson from a Shawn/Brian powerhouse (my third, her first) and we did sabre and epee and she did foil but I just did epee with Chels. So that was fun. Its about time we learn again!! Good times. Scottula was invited into the club and so was Courtney! yay!! Greg was bitter. But then again, he's Greg. What a Greg.
Who invented Handball and why?
Later. SO MUCH HOMEWORK. Pourquoi Madame? POURQUOI???
Congrats to Liz for getting into Wellsley!!


The Kennebunkport Hillbilly (sung to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies Theme Song)


Come and listen to my story 'bout a boy name Bush. His IQ was zero and his head was up his tush. He drank like a fish while he drove all about. But that didn't matter 'cuz his daddy bailed him out. DUI, that is. Criminal record. Cover-up.

Well, the first thing you know little Georgie goes to Yale. He can't spell his name but they never let him fail. He spends all his time hangin' out with student folk. And that's when he learns how to snort a line of coke. Blow, that is. White gold. Nose candy.

The next thing you know there's a war inVietnam. Kin folks say, "George, stay at home with Mom." Let the common people get maimed and scarred. We'll buy you a spot in the Texas Air Guard. Cushy, that is. Country clubs. Party time.

Twenty years later George gets a little bored. He trades in the booze, says that Jesus is his Lord. He said, "Now the White House is the place I wanna be." So he called his daddy's friends and they called the GOP. Gun owners, that is. Falwell. Jesse Helms.

Come November 7, the election ran late. Kin folks said "Jeb, give the boy your state!" "Don't let those colored folks get into the polls." So they put up barricades so they couldn't punch their holes. Chads, that is. Duval County. Miami-Dade.

Before the votes were counted five Supremes stepped in. Told all the voters "Hey, we want George to win." "Stop counting votes!" was their solemn invocation. And that's how George finally got his coronation. Rigged, that is. Illegitimate. No moral authority.

Y'all come vote now. Ya hear?

I LOVE MARIA!!
So Friday after school I kinda just hung out until 6:15 when my mom and me picked up Jeff and Liz and we went out to Tonawanda for Katlyn's wake. It was horribly sad. We got there early because my mom was going out of town for the weekend, so we didn't have to wait for hours, but by the time we left we were lucky to see the line going around the corner. We looked at all the pictures--she was sooo beautiful! She was homecoming queen and star of the basketball, track, and soccer teams, she was class treasurer, the list goes on. We couldn't even recognize her. She looked so different. It was nice to see the pictures of when we did recognize her though. Oh God, it was horrible. I didn't start crying until I saw her mother. Her mother recognized us and we gave her the picture we had found from 1st grade at some girl scout function with face paint on and its with Laura Spreigel. I have a picture on my wall of Marie, Liz, and me the same way. They're really cute. Oh, God. I can't talk about it anymore! This was supposed to be a happy entry! :(
So I went home and online and Ria invited me to go to Starbucks with her and Ang and random Phil Getman. I drank a carmel frappuchino and then we went over to Subway and Erik and Briana showed up and they brought Mike with them. We ended up heading back to my house to play with my hot Mannekin Pis cards. I came in second in spoons!!! I rock. Ang and I didn't quite have the hang of Peanut Butter though. I want Brian to be my partner sometime!! I was President twice in Eggroll and I never was the Eggroll...was Mike the eggroll the entire night?? haha I think he was! Well they ended up leaving around 2 and it was really fun.
Saturday I slept til one and I went to Margaret's party for awhile and I got to meet the famous Fabian the sweaty Puerto Rican!! Then Liz and I went out prom dress shopping and it turns out there isn't a single prom dress that isn't ugly in the whole Boulevard. Next week we're gonna hit up the Galleria. Then I waited around for my boyfriend to call, but his grandma's in the hospital again :( so I went to a movie with my dad and my brother. We went to see the Endless Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It was really wierd. I was debating whether it was wierder than le Huitieme Jour and I think it might be!! It was very strange. And VERY Freudian! It was bizarre. I went home and talked to Brian and then it was 2 and time to go to sleep!
Today I went to the 9:30 mass and guess who was there?? MARIA!!!!! For those of you who don't know Maria, she is the best person in the world!!!! She was born in Italy and baptized by the Pope and she lived in Virginia and now she goes to school in NC, but her family lives in Brussels and she went there over Christmas when she gave me a picture of my beloved Mannekin Pis dressed up like Santa!! I love Maria!! I'm her biggest fan!!!!!!!!!! Anyway after mass we hung out and FC promised us a pizza (Luke, Chrissy, and Laura were all there too. And POLSKA said the Homily again!) and then we POLSKAED the POLSKA and he almost dropped his papers. He stopped and turned and stared and us and then walked away. Hahahah its funny because he hates us! Then we went to IHOP- Dominic, Liz, Maria and me--but it was too crowded so we went to Dennys and we looked at Maria's pictures and then we went out to Niagara to pick up Janet but she was busy until one so we sat around Gallagher and then she came to us and we went to her room and met all her friends (except Kevin) and then we ate her RingPops and then we were sitting around and like "What should we do?" So we decided to go to Canada!! So we ended up getting pretty lost on the way and heading over on some obscure bridge. The lady was like "where were you born?" and Dominic lies "US" (We all have american citizenship) And she asked us what we were going to do and he was like "See the falls" and she's like "Besides the clothes on your back do you have anything with you?" and we're like "uh, no" and then she's like "ok bye" and it was really funny because she sounded so bitter! She was like "ok bye" really snippy!! We laughed until Dominic almost got us hit by a TRUCK. Then we drove around Canada real lost following this random Quebecois (prolly the same guy who traded shirts with FC) who couldn't drive to save his life. Then we ended up parking and we crossed the street (haha little guy with a big step!) and we went into the little building and got ice cream even though it was freezing out. I got a milkshake but the chocolate chips kept getting stuck in the straw!! It was sad. Then we went out and got our picture taken in front of the falls and the Canadian woman had a cute accent! And then we took a picture of Maria with her leg up jumping over the falls because the sign had the picture on it and it was hilarious. Then we went inside so Maria could get pictures (her poor friends just got postcards from her from Brussels and Paris and now...NIAGARA FALLS ONTARIO! hahaha. Its funny because she was sunbathing on Friday and now she's spending her spring break in Buffalo!) ****IMPORTANT FACTOID OF THE DAY**** In the EU gift shop in Brussels (Bruxelles in Flemish) they sell EU condoms with the stars of the flag in a circle going around it. That's AMAZING. Maria didn't buy any though :( So then we got our picture taken by they guy who works at the gift shop with the huge stuffed moose because last time Maria was in Canada she and Katie got their picture taken with a moose!! Good times!! Then we went home. On the way home the guy at customs was not too bad looking. ("I have some illegal drugs...in a pocket...in my underwear") Best quote by the hot customs guy: "Is this your car?" (Dominic: yes) "Did you put on the registration sticker?" (My dad did) "Are you aware that its upside down?" (yes) "Was he drunk or taking illegal substances??" hahahahahaha it was awesome. So we lied again and got back into the country safe and sound and made it back in time to do my homework!!! And now I must do economics test corrections and a WWII paper!
Leave me comments!! Especially Dominic, Liz, and Janet!! (And Maria after Easter! I love you!!)

Ok so I should really be doing homework!!

So Wednesday Liz, her mom, my dad and me hopped into our car and headed off to Starbucks (mmmm...carmel frappachino) and then we headed downtown to One Niagara Square---Family Court. So we headed down to the Family Court floor and we handed in our slips. The lady was like "so are you Tanya?" I was like "no....I'm Kelly" and she was like "oh you're the COMPLAITENT" I was like "uh duh" so then she had us go sit in this little room so we sat there and we all read (I read the comedy Heart of Darkness) and then I turn around and realized that Tanya and her PO'd mother (who apparently had a lot of tattoos) were behind us. Then we noticed that Sydney and her parents came in and her mom was crying. They sat against the wall and tried to fill out these sheets: "What should I say about attendence? Poor?" "Yea....no...average" So average means not going to school for a month in juvy. Then they tried the same thing with grades. So then we sat there in awkward silence without talking for about an hour so then Liz and I began to discuss stuff like English class and finally my dad got kinda mad and went in to talk to the guy about why we were supposed to be there at 9:30 and it was now 11. So this lady comes in and is like "you're the complatent, right? So you'll be called in first" so we're like ok. So then the Assistant DA man came in and he's like "Tanya Hooper?" So we're like "uhhh...?" So she's gone for 10-15 minutes and she comes back and the Assistant DA comes in and calls us in. So then we meet him...his hair was in 20 billion different directions, he's hung over....and....as soon as we get into his office we smell...what's that? ah yes. Urine. Dr. Christian later identified the smell as cat pee--- so his name will from now on be Mr. Cat Pee Man. He talked to us about if we wanted to send them to mandatory counsiling or go before a judge. Eventually we decided to have them go to counsiling and if they miss some or if they do anything else or deny the charges or anything we'll hafta go before the court. Then we left our dear, hungover, cat pee man and were finally able to breathe again. I guess they chose to go to counsiling because mr cat pee man called last night and said that there was a possibility that we would hafta go to mediation with them. Grrr they're so dumb. He was too hungover to tell us that earlier. So then we went to Subway for lunch and then we went to school and were only about 2 minutes late for 6th period! Then I went to 7th period and then 8th period we had study hall!!! Hurrah for perfect attendence!! Then Marie went down and got us our NHS stuff and I got Brian and we went to Model UN. Then we went to Girl Scouts ("Girl Scouts") and then they left and Brian came over because he hadn't eaten corn beef and cabbage and Irish Soda Bread (mmmmmmmmmm) for St. Patty's day before. Yum!! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Then we dropped him off and we went to our last karate before April 28th. There was testing and then sparring. It was so awesome because Margaret and I had almost everything planned out for every bout except he threw us off once. I sparred Margaret and she beat me 3-2 but she punched me in the nose (head shots count) and then I sparred my mom and of course I beat her. 3-1 but she only got that point because Sharon, Ellie, and Matt were pointgivers and they always want her to get a point.
Thursday I actually had to go to school! Our team won in soccer!!! It was awesome!!! YAY! Then after school we had guitar/harp/sax and then some people went out to dinner to say goodbye to Stan.
Homework time!! I hafta finish reading for WWII and I hafta read Heart of Darkness. Good times. None of the ships would look at me :(
talk to you later.

I'll update later.

Wow, I just read in the paper about Katlien Gosch.

I'm really really sorry. Wow. She was only 18. I heard her name and I was like "oh my God."

Oh my God.

Well, I must admit I haven't thought about her since 5th grade when she moved away. We used to sit together in GT. She was one of the old school GT kids. Oh my God. She used to sit at the K table in Mr. Malkawitz's room. It was Kiersten, and Kayla and Kaitlyn and me. I can picture her sitting there with me. She and Kayla were best friends at that time. I can also picture sitting with her at a different table in that room working on that wretched project book we hadta do at the end of the year. And then I can picture her in a girl scout uniform. My mom and I just checked. She was in our troop in 3rd grade. God bless her.

I hate accidents. I hate cars. I hate driving.

Oh God, bless her.

Does anyone want to go to the wake with me? I feel so bad. I have a picture somewhere of her in her GS uniform with face paint on. Its really cute. I want to find it. I don't know what to do with it. Maybe if I go to the wake I can give it to someone there. I don't know. I just feel really bad.

Please pray for her. But I'm sure she's in Heaven.

Amen.

What's up with this snow???
Happy Pre-St. Patrick's Day!!
I love St. Patrick's Day!
I watched John on American Idol today!
Raise your hand if you're ignoring "Heart of Darkness" (its about Vampires)! MEEEE!!!
Raise your hand if you have court in the morning!!
MEEEEE!!!!!
Woot COURT!
Hmmm....I should go to bed. You'd think so at least.
Steve.....why is your site under construction?? Fix it!! How am I supposed to know about life??
Andy Banchichi if you are reading this leave a message: aussi je te deteste. ton visage me fait tres malade et me fait vomit. ton visage est tres tres moche--comme le vallee de l'enfer et aussi le derriere du singe.
Ah bon.
After school I went over to Kim's where we pretended to read Heart of Darkness and my brother was there too!! Then we partied at Tim Horton's!! It was Brian, Kim, me, Chrissy, Jeff, Liz, Dana, Stan (of course!!!), Jessy, Bill, and...euh...Bill's friend. Joebob. I don't really know his name so I shall call him Joebob. I had a chocolate mint donut!! Yay!! It was pretty fun. Then Brian came over and we watched the science channel and alittle DeGrassi and the Daily Show (I blame Stan for the science) and then he went home because he has rugby in the morning and I watched American Idol.
The best part of my life is that choir is a real class. Today he worked with the boys so the girls went out and sat in the hall. Wow, he's a moron. Not that I mind. (I am, of course lying about it being the best part of my life. If choir was ever, in any way, involved in the best part of my life I would promptly kill myself.)
New vocab from awesome friends in Holland!!
flikker--"to call someone gay" and
"hoer"--hooker.
Wow, way to go dutch people. Way to have your own language. At least they try. Unlike the Flemish. Hahaha Dutch blind and deaf aunties. Grrrrrr.....have I mentioned she's not my favorite aunt??
Ok now we're coming to a fun part called:
AVOIDING READING HEART OF DARKNESS.
Actually its called: "BEST STORIES EVER" I found this old list, so I may not even understand them. If you have any things that should be added to the list then go ahead and comment away!!!
BEST STORIES EVER.
7. OINK!
6. The Cheeseburger Story (I don't know.)
5. Erik giving someone a concussion playing street hockey.
4. Brian being too young to hang out with Luke growing up. hahaha
3. When Mark meets Erik.
2. How when Brian, Luke, Steve and Mark (?) went to see the Matrix and the only one who got IDed was the only one old enough to watch the movie. (Luke)
1. The D. F. Story from 4th Grade-> now. hahaha. I love that story.

The only really acceptable WORST STORY EVER to be listed on a page where evidently anyone can find is...the fish story from fencing. You know what I mean. So the other day I was fishing, you've probably never fished before....there were a lot of trout in this river. Mostly rainbow trout, but there were some brown trout. Nobody could catch the brown trout though. I caught one fish...it seemed to me to be like a bass...but I threw it back because it was only 3 inches long and it hadta be 5 inches long to keep so I was 1...2... 2 inches too short. so I threw it back, but then I caught another fish and it was a brown trout. Do you know the difference between brown and rainbow trout? I do...
It went on like that...for the BETTER PART OF AN HOUR.
And I heard it TWICE.
Ok....now onto Heart of Darkness!
Wish me the Luck of the Irish tomorrow!!! :)

Belgium
I'm afraid you all don't know how cool I am in Belgium.
Today I received this dmail (titled “hallow”) in my DeGrassi account:

hay

i ame marijke
i come from belgium
end you where doo you come from
why are you intresting in belgium ???

pls send me a d-mail back
chaoi
marijke


Aww its cute because he speaks too much flemish to speak English.
This is my other Belgian friend, Nicske:
He first dmailed me to ask where in Belgium I had been to. Then he said:

I live on the north side of belgium close to antwerp and yes I speek flemish but I learn french so I can speek a little bit french to. in bruges is it very cool but antwerp smells and there are to much strangers (black people) not I dont like it but they think that they are the boss of hole belgium.

ok so that was really wierd, but I was fascinated because when we first got off the bus in Northern Belgium we were like "Belgium smells funny" so I told him so. Then I told him to teach me Flemish (which, for the record, is not a real language)

yep but one of the 3 languages (germans) is only a piece in the west of belgium close to germany but its not very much so it is not a language of belgium it selfs and french is only in the south side and in brussels. I can learn you some flemich but I don't think it gonna be easy so just ask what words you wonna learn

Aww so I told him and he said,

here are the words and what are swear words?

Hi = hallo
how are you? = hoe maakt u het?
I'm fine = het gaat goed.
bye = dag


hahaha. And today he replied saying,


hallo.
thank you so much = dank u
and swear words they call with us sheldwoorden.
dick = lul but many swear words of america use we in belgium like fuck, shit, ....
dag.


AWWWWWWW. That could not be cuter!
Its great because one of my fondest memories of France was when my Pere was driving me around and we were discussing why all the signs there were in Flemish and French (we were on the French side of the border) and he said (in French), "If there was a car accident here between a French man and a Belgian man, the French man would say, "MERDE" and the Belgian would say, "FORDOOOM!" Do you know what "merde" is?" and I was like "oh, je sais "merde"" He was like "ah bon." And then we practiced saying the words over and over again until I had them right. Aw, I love my French father.

Yesterday after getting my awesome new phone I went over to Brian's where we did nothing all day. Then I went home and then I went out for ice cream with Kim (I was text messaging her and we decided to just go out because she was CRAZY) This morning I slept until 11 and we went to the 11:30 where I saw the Seels. At the end of Mass I ran over to them and then Janet and I went in search of Jacek. FC told us he was outside in the hall with Father Gerry (notably the second time FC's lied to us this weekend!!) and when we couldn't find him we ran back into the "church" and he was just coming out and he was like "Ah! What do you want? Take it and go in peace! You can have anything!" So we were like "hi....1..2...3....POLSKAPOLSKA*clapclapclap*" and he was like "I hate you" so we ran away. Aw, sometimes our friends are going to be priests and they hate us!! So we went out to breakfast and then I went home to do my gov homework which I still need to do most of and then Brian came over for dinner and we watched "Analyze That" I love you Brian! I love you sooo much! :) Sorry...anyway...Brian you're a jerk!!!! There, that's better, huh?
In conclusion I would like to say that alexander hamilton smells bad and John Adams is awesome.

Saturday, March 13, 2004

Jessy Minney if you comment here you can get a full dedicated blog entry (DBE) because you're amazing but you get this little plug because you're so thoughtful and amazing and I love you!!!!
Anyway! Stan comes into town today!!! YAY!!
I GOT ACCEPTED INTO SYRACUSE!!!! YAAAAAYY!!!!!
Sooo...Tuesday was Liz's birthday and that was fun. We had a big party at fencing with a hot card and cupcakes she couldn't eat. Then we had a meeting and Liz was able to vote for new members!!! YAY!! Except for Dana and I stole her thunder and voted for one of the people. But we ROUND to 18!!!!
Wednesday after school we had model UN and then we went to "Girl Scouts" aka Liz came over and "studied for anatomy" which, by definition means "do anything else but study anatomy" so we got thinking about John (probably because we were having the conversation due to her birthday) and so that led to us find out that John = John from American idol. YAY!! So then I went to karate and we did falls so now I'm in pain. (neuropeptides. hahahaa)
Thursday after school I got my haircut, guitar lesson, then I went home and did my economics outline. Stupid Cornell didn't have any class but us all week. Stupid stupid cornell. What a Republican.
Friday we got some nasty pizza in French which was sorely dissapointing! Then after school Dominic picked me up and we went to St. Andy's North where we encountered the Phatom of the Opera (aka the Jacek of the Ukrainian Church) and we scared him out of his mind by applauding him. He was really good!! We were 20 minutes early. But that's better than Paul's 2 hours late!! (Paul and Laura...what?) and then we ran through our Stations of the Cross... I played Mary, Alex played Jesus, Dominic is Simon, Amanda was Mary Magdelene, Jose and Paul were soldiers, Michelle and Laura were weeping women, Liz was Puntious Pilote, and Laura was also Veronica. Janet was the awesome director. Martin was God. Wanna hear my Martin story?? Martin was wearing a berret and I was like "look! I have one too!!" And he was like "Where did you buy yours?" And I was like "noplace cool....the mall I guess" and he was like "oh, I bought mine in Paris" I was like "I bought my socks in Belgium!!!!" And it turns out he bought his socks in the mall!!! WOW!!! We're the most international CYO ever!! Martin's from Cameroon, Jose's from Costa Rica, Jacek's from Poland (POLSKA), and it turns out Paul was born in Germay!! (and then he ran off with Laura...what??) Anyway we're sweet. So Stations went perfectly because we're awesome even though during the Piata, I was holding Jesus and Alex kept laughing. It was so bad!!! Alex is AMAZING though. All the CYO kids are amazing!! Anyway, then we went to Applebees and some people showed up to hang out with us!! It was really fun because Jacek and Polska were teaching each other bad words in their languages and I was like "Polska, what are you saying?" And they were like "its not bad words!!!" and then one of them would say it and then they would die laughing. I was like "um, I know how we can get it out of them!" So then Janet and I Polskaed him into telling us. I guess he was teaching the Costa Rican Jigalo how to pick up Polish women?? hahaha it was amazing. I was like "This is Jacek, he's going to be a priest" and Jacek was like I love you, but only when you Polska. We were like "Polska!!" Jacek's so much fun!! It was great though. It was a lot of fun. They were all really impressed with Kim's Japanese and Dana's Hebrew. It was fun. I love CYO!
And now I hafta find some breakfast and then my daddy's taking me out to get a good cell phone!! YAY!!!!

Yo yo yo!!! I haven't updated well in like a week! So sorry my loyal fans!!!
DOMINIC!!!! AKA DON
hahahaa thanks so much for driving me every place in the world. You rock!!! Even if you are pretty slow. Haha, at least you're safe. Four words though: Phantom of the Opera!! Hahaha, he was pretty good too!! (By pretty good I mean awesome) Hahaha Simon. World Youth Day Memories: MARIA!!!!!!!!!!!! and Jordan of course and Katie and everybody and DAVE!!!! And Francois and St. Albert of Jerselum, Mississagua! FC!!!!!! POLSKA!!!!!! Remember at WYD when those Indian dancers walked past and it was tramatizing?? (I know I spelled that wrong, I spelled it RIGHT) and just remember: DR MCDONALD IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the rides and everything Don (hahahaha) you rule!

I have a friend named John....
Ok here's my awesome story. I am so excited now I can't speak. Ok well I guess I can speak. Here goes:
In 8th grade a whole bunch of us had the most fun time ever at Erie County Chorus. Now, it was at Hoover so we walked over after school and we stopped at Tim Hortons and I got a frappuchino. Now...if any of you know me you know that after drinking coffee...I'm...not the same person. Plus I was excited. So I was a little tiiiiiny bit hyper at ECC. So I sit down and there's a nice girl next to me whose name I forgot and there's a boy next to me with bright red hair. He had a round face and he was well, a loser. So he became my best friend. He was an Alto too and he had a really low voice and he should have been a base, but no, he was an alto. JOHN!! Yea so his name was John and we became best friends. By best friends I mean, he was scared out of his mind of me. I think I made him cry. I introduced him to all my friends and they all scared him too. Jeff got his sn but John said I couldn't have his because I scared him (note to anyone at ECC--whoa man....Martha. That was scary!!) And we spent like, the whole time trying to take a picture of him and he wouldn't let me. The moral of the story is that John loves me. And I love him. And seriously, I talk about him all the time. You know its true. My whole 8th grade yearbook is like "YOU AND JOHN ARE GETTING MARRIED" like Adam Bouley wrote "call me when you and John get married" and that kind of thing. Oh man. I love John.
So today Liz turns to me and she's like "I have a random question, do you think that John is JOHN?" And I was like "nah....well..." and Liz was like he has red hair and is nerdy and I was like and a year younger and went to Amherst!! So we looked him up but we couldn't find what middle school he went to so we ran upstairs and found my old erie county chorus pamplet thingys (I have them so I can look up old camp kids) so I looked him up and was like "aww, the only John here is John Dunbar!" And its not John Dunbar (We both randomly know John Dunbar) (HEY!!! Keebler elves are on tv!) so then I realized I had the wrong book so we open up the other book and we find our chorus and we're like "stevens....stevens..." and THERE!!! And it had a DASH next to it for people I know!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
JOHN FROM AMERICAN IDOL= MY JOHN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Monday, March 08, 2004

This is just a list of words that the world spells wrong that I spell right:
+alot
+twirp
+tramatized
I'll add more when I can think of them. But that's for you twirp.
Now, did you like those personalized blog entries?? I know you did!! If you leave comments I'll dedicate some to you (I know there's more of you!!) so LEAVE COMMENTS. Leave comments anyway.
I finished my Nanking essay. I should explain, he must have given us this assignment at least 2 weeks ago but I'm a lazy bum and I procrastinated until just now. Having a computer in my room is NOT A GOOD THING. I get distracted SOOO easily, but in good news I know just what's going on in everybody's LJ, DJ, Blog, etc. Hey if you have someone's blog or whatever that you don't think I know (even if its random) I'm always looking for new blogs to read so go for it and tell me! It would be much appreciated. I would write a blog entry about how much I love you! Anyway, I couldn't get out of karate club for the one millionth week in a row so I actually went but I told Newcomb I hadta leave on time. It wasn't so bad though because I dragged warm-ups on for...oh...about an hour. lol. and then we did a fun game. We had a new kid though--Joe Coriari! Or however you spell it. It doesn't matter because he's a freshman anyway. I remember when he was little! Speaking of knowing freshmen when they were little, after school when I was in Jensen's room I had a nice little chat with Matt Agugliaro (he was one of the boys who Team Taliban had been throwing snow balls at) He didn't know them, but he says next time they try anything he's going to knife them. And I was so proud of him as a pacifist!!! Ah well. After karate club I got out 10 minutes late (4:40) because Newcomb doesn't know when to stop! *sigh* so on my way out I thought it was pretty likely that Brian might still be around so I stopped by the Demon Lab and Keeks said that Brian was in Jensen's room so I hung out there until I could FINALLY drag him out....but here's the scary part of this story--Jensen said to Brian "I'm assuming you're going to leave with Kelly, unless you both want a ride?"--the scary part of that is that MR JENSEN KNOWS MY NAME.... and it gets worse. Ok, I can handle him knowing my first name, I'm in there everyday after school and he hasta be nice to me or Brian'll be sad I guess? and then what would Mr. Jensen do without Brian? My guess is die. Haha, next year's yearbook's going to SUCK. Anyway, when I finally stole my boyfriend away from the evil yearbook center Mr Jensen calls out "Good bye Miss Cooper! We don't bite!!" I was like "AHHH!!! He KNOWS my NAME!!!!" and Brian's like "well, yea" I was like "AHHH!!" Anyway then I started to go home because I had this big paper to write, right? Well it was snowing so I stopped by Brian's to see if my mom would come pick me up from there and it took her what, half an hour to come pick me up?? I don't know it took a long time though! I drove back from Brian's house (I'm such a good driver all of a sudden! whoa!) and it was SIX!! I have NO IDEA how it got so late!!!! So then I came home and ate dinner and did nothing when I was supposed to be writing my paper. Then I wrote my paper. I was going to write it about the American Reaction to Nanking, but I couldn't find much information and then I got really mad about the Japanese cover up so I did my paper about that. And now its done!! whoo HOO! Just in time to watch DeGrassi!!! YAAAAAY!!! Ummm....what was I going to say? Today in choir Andrea Palmer and Nora...whatsherlastname...DePaulo or something? Randomly told me they went in search of Team Taliban the other day. That was bizarre. I guess its good to know we have people on our side? I think? OH! I REMEMBER!!! My mom went out and bought a new cell phone so I get her old cell phone!!!!! I have a cell phone!!! YAAAY!!! Now people can call me on it!!! YAY!!! I'm so excited!!! Its a sucky phone, but its better then no phone at all!!
Oh, and yes Steve. Kim DID beat me in bball....why don't you pour some more salt in my wounds?? OW!! IT STINGS WHEN YOU TOUCH ME....hahahahahaha Sorry Steeeeeeve!!!! WHO LOVED THAT movie we're watching in French?? Its the wierdest movie I've ever seen in my life. Its called "La huitieme jour" (The Eighth Day) and its about this man (Eugolan, if you've seen the Simpsons episode where Bart goes to France, the tall lanky man he stays with is Eugolan. Its the same actor as in the Jean de Fleurette movies--BTW who thinks we should mention to Madame that our class was the wierd one that never saw that movie? hahahahaa....I'm debating it but people may hate me!) and a boy with Down's Syndrome. And they live in *sigh* Belgium. And the man's seperated from his wife (who hates him...she says "IT BURNS WHEN YOU TOUCH ME!!" but its not really so bad and then he randomly started beating her!!! It was soooo horrible!!) And he forgets his kids at the train station? Like he forgets to pick them up?? oh, its HORRIBLE! And the little girls look like boys and they always walk around holding hands and they hate their dad and the boy with Downs forgot his mom was dead and he has an obsession with this Latin singer Luis Msomething and Luis came to him in a dream--incognito as a mouse--and he was singing the "Ma maman" song and then the boy started flying and he saw his mom and the dog that was killed and it was so sad! But strange. Its sad but strange. Its really really European.
DeGrassi time!! Talk to you later!

I'm sorry!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOMINIC!!!! (AKA Don)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGHAN O'CONNER!!
Let's just pretend those were up yesterday, ok?

Anyway, I went to 9:30 this morning and Dominic and I were just leaving when we saw that our banner was finally hanging....hahaha I think they put it up during Mass except Janet said the same thing happened to her.

Then my dad, brother and I went out to breakfast and I came back and did the gov homework and then I went to see "The Passion of Christ" with Mrs. Seel, Janet, Kevin, Paul, Dominic, Jose, Amanda, Laura, Michelle and Amanda's friend. It was great. Not as WONDERFUL as I had heard though, I don't know. Maybe its because I just didn't watch the second half. It was really moving. It was awesome.

Then I went to Brian's and we watched "Cirque du soleil" and some Scare Tactics and had dinner then I went to CYO to practice Stations at St. John's Ukranian (or as my dad calls it, "St. Andrews, North")

Quote of the day:
"Don't make me make Laura rape you again. Jesus!"~our favorite director ever
Also: "Get your hands off Mary....God!!"~ haha me when Martin scared me and had his hands on my shoulders.

We have some good times kids. I love you!
Now then: still to come: specialty dedicated blog entries. Maybe after my Nanking paper's done: Tuesday. Sorry kids!

Hi!
I already dedicated blog entries to Naomi and Keem!!! But I'll do the others tomorrow because I'm a lazy bum and also its 1:13 am and I hafta take a shower and then wake up at 9.
Anyway, I spent Friday talking to Dana online about very important things (DeGrassi and 7th Heaven) and then I headed over early to Liz's party. Only Liz, Jeff, Dana, and I were there so Dana and I decorated (hotly I may add) Liz's living room. My personal favorite was the nonfunctioning Confederate Flag motif... I can't spell but you know what I mean. It was awesome. I just wish it was better. Anyway Dana and I had some good times then people started coming and ruining our fun. JK! It was actually a lot of fun. Anyway, Chrissy comes in and I was like "I haven't talked to you in forever!" and she's like "I know! I have a note for you!" and she hands it to me and I read it and I will directly quote the bottom for you:
Oh, by the way, as of today (Wednesday) I have a boyfriend...:) Just thought you'd like to know!
Bye!

So I read through it and I was like "WHAT?" so I say "Chrissy, dear, can I speak to you?" and I yank her into the dining room and I'm like "WHAT??? WHO???" And she's like "Arjay" and my chin (I love that word) hits the ground and I yanked her into the living room and said, "CHRISSY HAS SOMETHING SHE WOULD LIKE TO SAY" then I told them because she wasn't going to. Anyway, then we divided into two groups: the people who were sweet and the people who were losers. And Chrissy told us the random story about how they got back together and anyway it was nuts.
But the party was really fun.
Brian didn't go because he was too busy being a (cool) loser :P
So then Liz and I talked for an hour after everyone else left and I hadta wake up at 8ish to go on the choir trip.
Now, everybody knows I don't actually technically like choir, but the trip really wasn't too bad. It wasn't my ideal day but I actually had a lot more fun then I thought I would.
We got on the bus and I sat w/ Christina and Lauren was stuck in back and I missed her. We arrived at the Eaton Center and I ended up walking around with Christina, Michelle, and Cathy. It wasn't really too bad. I missed Lauren though because she went around with some other people and I was sad. We wandered the mall randomly looking for places to spend money and we got lost and intimidated by some random things like elevators and scary anorexic stores. We ate some lunch and in the end I bought a squirrel stuffed animal for Brian, Magic Cards for my brother, and a little bunny and moose for myself. You know how money can burn a hole in your pocket?? I had (still have one) traveler's cheques from...WORLD YOUTH DAY. And I LOVE WYD and I died when we passed Exposition Place and Zellers and of course Mississagua (St. Albert's of Jeruselum, Mississagua!), but the money needed to be spent!!!
Anyway, then we went to the theater and we saw "The Producers" and I've always loved that musical (shout outs to camp kids who remember Kate Amatuzzo singing "if you got it flaunt it" I WANT TO BE HER) but this perfomance was absolutely amazing. It was soooo funny and soooo good it was so great and I think I will talk about it for the rest of the month. It was intensely good. If you haven't seen the movie, go see it and if possible def. try to see it in Toronto or at least Sheas. It was really great. It was by far the highlight of my day/week and that's why I enjoyed the choir trip. I also enjoyed the company: I sat in the special seats with Lauren and we bonded. It was fun. Best moment of the day:
random choir member: Mr LaDuca, did you enjoy the show?
Duca: I did actually... I saw it on Broadway, it was stupid, wasn't it?
Lauren and I: *die laughing*
Lauren: I love you Kelly
Me: I love you!!
Michelle: Why do you love her?
Me: Can't I just love her??
Lauren and I: *die*
Anyway, I guess you'd hafta know all the like 50 stories that that hasta do with between Lauren and me. so yea. It was great.
Man I love that musical.
So then we sang on the way to the Town and Country Buffet which had some really great food especially chicken nuggets (I love chicken!) and creme caramel. *sigh*
Then we went home and we were....15 minutes early. That's like the time when Michelle didn't get 100 on her Anatomy test. Oh man good times.
We watched Finding Nemo on the ride up and finished it on the way back and we started Chicago but it didn't get finished.
So I got home at 9 and went to see if Brian was awake so I IMed Rob and he said that Brian was at Erik's so call him there so I looked up Erik in the phonebook and called him and then went over until 1 and here I am! Briana's my buddy. She's so awesome!! We talk about important things while the others just stared at the women on the tv (actually Briana wasn't there for that.) and the killing ants movie?? Wierdos.
Sooo.....I guess I'm Satsqwatch.
And Satsquash has church in 8 hours and she needs her beauty sleep.
Leave her messages? Thanks!

Friday, March 05, 2004

Make sure to leave me comments!! If you do I'll dedicate a post to you! Just making sure you all know that!!

CROWNED AND DANGEROUS!!!!
hahahaha. If any of you haven't seen that movie then you're really missing out. I really recommend it. In fact I actually got this e-mail the other day which had a recommendation for that movie in it! Oh yea!
"Suspects in a beauty queen's murder include a former lover, a rival contestant and a stage mother."
BEST. MOVIE. EVER.
Anyway! Yesterday thanks to Liz I was given a heads-up that our gov assignment had to do with a flag burning amendment so I brought in the following song for us to listen to:
Kid: Hey, who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?
Amendment: I'm not garbage.

(starts singing)

I'm an amendment-to-be, yes an amendment-to-be,
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me.

There's a lot of flag-burners,
Who have got too much freedom,
I want to make it legal
For policemen to beat'em.

'Cause there's limits to our liberties,
At least I hope and pray that there are,
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far.

(spoken)
Kid: But why can't we just make a law against flag-burning?
Amendment: Because that law would be unconstitutional.
But if we changed the Constitution...
Kid: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!
Amendment: Now you're catching on!
Kid: What if people say you're not good enough to be in the
Constitution?

(sings)

Amendment: Then I'll crush all opposition to me,
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay.
If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay.

(spoken)
Congressman: Good news, Amendment! They ratified ya!
You're in the US Constitution!
Amendment: Oh yeah!

Door's open boys!! whooot whoot a bip bip bip bip....hahaa

anyway. We listened to that. Stuhmiller kinda freaked out when Bart said "Hell" and when they said that about Ted Kennedy (hahahha Liz....engaged. what a LOSER) then I think he was about to cry!! But its ok.
Anyway, I actually went to karate on Wednesday and that was a lot of fun. As the thing says there were some awesome posters up saying things like "fun little fibula" and "tall tibula" and "elvis pelvis" and "round ribcage" and "strong sternum" and Max had to lead warm ups but I think that Dan and Jose should hafta because they both randomly got 2 stripes yesterday and that's really not fair because I started 1,000 years before them and now they're tied with me. Grrrr.... and they never taught or even led warm ups!!! MATT!!! He just hates me because I'm his sister (but he doesn't hafta humiliate me!!!) Grrrrr.... just because he learned new tricks (he was able to count to TWENTY FIVE!!! I was so proud!) and some other trick...what was it? Anyway, Matt's cool. We got to do bow kata and I was the only special person who gotta use their own because I'm sweet. Its fun. It looks really cool.
Thursday was a nice day because it was like a Friday. We finished up the Sheeps Brains and the human brain and chimp brain came out of the fermaldahide and they burned my eyes. We had our "WH" test in English.... I think everyone did choice 2...if you didn't tell me because I'm curious. I think everybody but me did Heathcliff.... I did mine on Catherine. I thought my essay was pretty good actually!! Fifth period was the French Breakfast....mmmm....crossonts!!! I can't spell but I love Foreign Language Week....not that its much different from the rest of our C2 classes but whatever. I finished up my portfolio question in math and we finished the Fall of France in WWII...speaking of WWII here's my RANDOM JEFF SALERNO STORY OF THE DAY~
Jeff Salerno said something (surprise!) stupid and Mr. Meetze said, "never put me down as a job reference" and Jeff said, "I actually already have job! I've had one for almost a year!" and Mr. Meetze was like "just make sure you keep it" and Jeff said "I'm the #2 person at Ted's" and Mr. Meetze was like "wait, I hafta say it...what do you need to know to work at Teds?" and Jeff said, "I know to put the musterd on first, and if they ask for everything you don't put on ketchup AND hot sauce" and we all laughed and Meetze said, "it took you a year to learn how to put ketchup on a hot dog?" and Jeff said "well....actually I'm the #2 drink person" and we all laughed and Andy Fanelli said, "what do you need to know to be a drink person? what do you DO?" and Jeff said, "well...you take the cup and put in some drink and if they ask for it you put in ice!" whoa. Anyway he said that SOMETIMES people want milkshakes too! And you put the syrup in first!!! lol so Meetze was like "you hurt my brain, Salerno" and then he said that Jeff's life is like a reality show you know its horrible and you just can't look away. Like a train wreck. And Jeff was like "yea! you know people are going to die but....wait..." hahaha anyway it was really funny but the best part is I asked my best friend Luke about it later because Luke's an awesome Teds person too and he was really confused so I think that Jeff is lying. hahahaa. It was awesome. Anyway!
In study hall we played dolls with our senior pictures. we also sang a lot and were annoying and loud. It was a lot of fun!
After school I had my guitar lesson and we couldn't find Alex so we each had like a 40 minute lesson (including playing "Queen of Sheba" which isn't really so bad since I'm only playing like 1/3 of it. hahaha) and then I went home to try to contact my boyfriend who was out getting senior pictures, shoes, and visiting his cousin Christina who has pnemonia! Poor Christina! I hope she feels better soon! Since Brian has the biggest feet known to man :) his shoes will be delivered in 47 business days. haha sucks to be him! Better order your prom shoes soon!! Anyway when he finally got home he called me and then I went over to his house and we watched his favorite movie ever: "Seabiscuit" hahaha. Turns out if I lived "30" (read: 70) years ago I would have bad fashion sense too. lol. You're such a jerk... I mean... MEAN. hahaha anyway it was fun until he kicked me out because he was tired. So I went home and he went to bed. Then I went home and DeGrassi wasn't on :( (BUT ITS ON TONIGHT!!) but the Sabrina with the Backstreet Boys was on and that's the first place Liz ever saw the Backstreet Boys so I watched that and then I fell asleep. It was a nice evening.
Then this morning the cleaning lady came into my house and the dog didn't care. He jumped up, woke me up, and stared at me like "there's someone in the house!" and then I said "GO!" so he went downstairs wagging his tail. Yet he's scary when my friends come over. Good dog!! Then we went shopping for Liz's bday and Subway for breakfast/lunch and here I am! Ready to do scholarship essays!!!
Happy Birthday to Marc Loeser...way to have your bday party for a million hours!! lol. Tomorrow's Choir's trip to Toronto... I have lots of Candian money! Man, 12 hours (or more) with my FAVORITE people on Earth. Lauren, Michelle, Christina and I are going prom dress shopping which is actually exciting because I actually like them (whoa...people in choir I LIKE??) yea..... can't wait.... plus we hafta remember the golden rule: if its not about sex we can't say it in front of Mrs. Wheeler Bell. For example:
Person 1: Hi, sex.
Person 2: Hi! How the SEX are you?
Person 1: Much in need of sex, thanks....let's go to the bathroom and bang on the walls (literally....hit fists against bathroom wall to make scary noises)
Person 3: Can I come?
Anyway....see you all later!

Scottula is the best person ever. Fencing is awesome.
Soooo Edwards dropped out today. That's really upsetting. I'm getting a chicken finger sub!!! I'm starving and it'll come soon!!! Yaaaay!! I'm going to karate tonight!! yay karate!!!!!! I haven't been in so long! Way too long!!
We dissected sheep brains today!! That was some good fun!!
I'm really hungry!! That movie we watched in French was sad :( but it happened in Brussels!! Why are my blog entries like Pride and Prejudice and has everything balanced? Ah well, at least I'm not like Emily Bronte!! Grrrr!! Have I mentioned I'm not a fan of that book? Yea...
After school we had a NHS meeting.... I really dislike NHS... and then we had Model UN. Guess who joined Model UN?? Liz! Remember when we've been bugging her to join for 3 years and she's always said no? Guess what changed?
Anyway. This weekend we are going to call Kristin and FIND OUT about the Junior Olympics. And we should call Samuel and see if he's ok. I miss the olden days of fencing. A LOT!

Tuesday, March 02, 2004

Happy Super Tuesday!!! My father is horrible and told me that Sharpton came in first in NY and I was petrified....but he was lying. We can all breathe again. Dean however, you may remember Dean--he quit the race--won Vermont. Edwards is currently winning Georgia...but he's going to drop out tomorrow at 4!!!!!!! I'm actually really really upset!! We can only hope he'll be our VP.... I love VPs.....oh God let him (or at least some southerner) be our VP!!!! Ok, our buddy Wolf Blitzer just updated and Edwards is still winning... *cries* I love Edwards!!! I can deal with Kerry I guess...I just love Edwards.
So everybody read the Next tomorrow because we're going to get in it!! Yaaay Scottula!!
Man...Kerry's kicking butt in NY! Grrr....ok ok I'm sure Friend John is really excited.
Anyway!! I had a good day because Brian came over to dinner which was really nice and I even walked Taz to go meet him and then we went dropped him off and I went voting with my mom and the little old ladies there loved me and gave me an absentee ballot! It was fun. Then I went to fencing. I walked in and looked around....the electric target machine was on and benched over it were Shawn, Tom and Linda... Hey guys.... wait a second....LINDA?!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!! I was so excited to see her!!! I don't think I've seen her since Steve's funeral or shortly after!! That was just over a year ago! It was GREAT to see her again! The most annoying moment --NOOOO!!! Kerry's winning in GEORGIA!! GOOOOOOOOOOOO EDWARDS!!!!!!!-- was when we got ready to get the class in line and we told them to get their weapons and Noah walks up to us and says, "Far be it from me to correct my teachers, but I think that you should address the class as "Class get your weapons" or "Everyone get your weapons"...if you want everybody to get your weapons...do you want us to get our weapons?? You're talking to us right? All of us?" No Noah. I just wanted two people to and so I announced it without saying their names.....you moron. Grrrr he annoys me. He also told me that he and Silas were anxiously awaiting their entrance into the club. I was like "um, ok" Cuz he's not who we're asking to join next week. What a butt!!!!
Anyway...I think that's about it. All in all it was pretty fun. GOOOO Edwards!!

My thoughts on Emily Bronte and her novel, "Wuthering Heights"

Dear Emily Bronte,
I hate you. You can't write. Your stories are dumb and you're a moron. Here's an example of why I hate you:
I hate you.... I have always hated you... I will continue to hate you.... I hated you...today is another day and I hate you still....a week has passed and I still hate you... I look forward to another week when I am sure, I will still hate you.
Emily, you have this thing where when you switch narrators you get your tenses in a bungle and it sounds awkward and annoying. Here's a tip: Use one narrator! Also...
cewo ut ''tw' fw' ghitlk' night' 'iiigyup nio. Understand? No, well, as Joseph would say whenever you get to the important part of the sentance he's saying you "oncoiwne ion' cew" This is a problem because....and listen to me closely on this: NO ONE UNDERSTANDS WHAT HE IS SAYING.
One last thing... people told us we would cry when we read this book because it was so depressing....well... I didn't cry. I don't know why, but I never once felt like crying (except when you were randomly switching narrators for no reason) and I think this may be why: I HATED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE CHARACTERS!!! Not one of them had a single redemable quality....and those few people who I did not detest with all of my soul....they didn't turn out well. For instance, Edgar Linton. He was a whiny little spoiled brat who got everything he wanted even if he didn't deserve it. But he also was the only character who knew what love is. He really loved Catherine (even though he should celebrate his daughter's birthday rather than his wife's death day) and he really loved Cathy. (oh, that reminds me--- Emily, even though you died before you got to write other novels, I just wanted to remind you that there ARE more than four names in the world.... each character can have their OWN names!!) But in the end he dies and WHO does his wife run off with in the afterworld?? I won't ruin the ending, but its not him. Anyway, I hated this book.
And cousins shouldn't marry cousins. If you marry your cousin and then he dies (even though he's one of the worst people in the world) that is God telling you not to marry your cousin...that is not...and I shall repeat this because its important... IS NOT God trying to tell you to marry your other cousin...ok? Just because you have two cousins does not... DOES NOT mean you hafta marry them both....
ok... In conclusion, I hate "Wuthering Heights"
In hatred,
Kelly

Anyway so I went to the police station today...actually it was the community center where Juliette Low is every year? Yea we met Officer Kelleher there...turns out he's Mr. Kelleher from 7th grade. He remembered us...random! So he took Liz's statement (took an hour) then I went to my orthodontist appt. I will now tell you my entire orthodontist appt:
Dr.: Hey how are you?
Me: good how are you?
Dr: good are you wearing these EOD? Mon. Wed. Fri?
Me: EOD
Dr: They fit. See you later!
Me:thanks. Sure am glad I made time to come here!'
And then I left. Good times. I HATE YOU DR. MACDONALD!! Actually that was the other guy. I love him and want to have his children because he was the guy who was like "so, why aren't your braces off?? 6 years??" and then he took them off the next time I saw him.
Anyway then I went back and gave my statement (45 minutes) so we're charging them with "Menacing" and we have a court date in the morning of March 10th I think probably. Good times!!!! lol.
So tomorrow's SUPER TUESDAY!!!! Vote if you can!!!!!!!! Vote Edwards, Vote Kerry, even vote Elf....and if you have any brains at all don't vote Unviable....but VOTE DARN YOU!!!!!!! Thanks guys....vote for me :(
When you vote for lonely men....vote for meee.....lol I try to sing for choir....that's a stupid song. Its really like "when you shoot at lonely men, shoot at me." Its really dumb.... but you know what boys chorus says, "I sell drugs to children."....
leave me comments?? Thanks!! Love you all! :)
