Ohh... my ass hurts. Stupid terrain park. Fell every time I went through. It's mostly my fault, but I had been going down normal trails fine, and Erin, Amy, and Catlin forced Lewie and I to go. Kris and Megan wouldn't, 'cause Megan's a wuss and Kris didn't want her going alone, for some reason.

It was fun though. I still can't turn toeside while I'm moving at a not-slow speed, but I have enough control with either foot forward that I just keep turning heelside and changing which foot's forward to check my speed, instead of turning back and forth and leaving the same foot forward.

This is a great site.

"He's a [lotsa ramdom somethings]. She's a [lotsa other random somethings]. They fight crime!"

Some good ones:

He's an obese umbrella-weilding senator from the Mississippi Delta. She's a time-travelling punk single mother who hides her beauty behind a pair of thick-framed spectacles. They fight crime!

He's an uncontrollable bohemian cat burglar fleeing from a secret government programme. She's a foxy tempestuous nun looking for love in all the wrong places. They fight crime!

He's a Nobel prize-winning, small-town shaman on the wrong side of the law. She's a vivacious kleptomaniac hooker with the power to bend men's minds. They fight crime!

^_____^

I came out to a friend today. In teh middle of the cafetria. During lunch. But nobody heard but her. If you're more than about 5 feet from someone, unless you're trying really hard to listen, you can only hear that they're talking, so I doubt anybody else heard.

She was fine with it, which I expected. She's got 6 parts in "The Laramie Project" for chrissake!

Of course, being around her inspires natural eloquence: "The thought of getting anywhere near a vagina makes me sick!" Ah, the bard would be impressed. **Rolls eyes**

Now to figure out who else I can trust until late September...

Quote of the Day:

"We're not a couple, just gay lovers." -Heather, friend from above, in a botched attemt to explain that she and a friend of hers are gay-friendly, but not gay.

You know what's really hard? Talking to four people at once. You know what's even harder? Talking to four people at once online.

As I am doing now.

The five of us being the BotC crew, minus the Nicks, who's AIM names I do not have, for whatever reasons.

Oddly, none of the four are talking to me about similar things. Elusion-kun is most definitely the most talkative of the four (Him, Crono-san, Anne, and Trix-chan).

Having similar interest'll do that when ya talk. And I'm saying more to him, but that's 'cause he's saying more to me, if that makes any sense.

La, lala, lala... I want to kick my broooooooooooother...

He's such a brat it isn't funny.

"Hey Pat, you need to do your piano."

"I'm good enough already."

"You still need to do it every day."

"I can skip it today!"

"No you can't."

"I skipped it yesterday!"

"Well then you definitely can't skip it today."

"But I"m good enough already!"

"It wouldn't hurt..."

"NO!"

Etc.

Grrrrrr.

And I want to kick the person who did the powerpoint for my dad's church today.

Their version of a Christan Rock (**Shudder**) song about Jesus:

"Your our [blank], your our [blank]
Same form, different [blank]s
And again."

Obviously, I forget every third word. ^_^;;

There was some other big grammatical error in the thing, but I forget, 'cause it was early this morning, and now its 7:30.

I rarely go to that church (usually I go to my mom's), but I'm kinda glad I went today. I was there for a sermon on Creation. That's always fun. Better than a homophobic preacher, anyway. At least some Christians are acknowledging that the "1st day, 2nd day..." translation isn't nessicarily correct due to the multiple meanings of "yom." And that there are parts of it that aren't easily explained, whichever way you interpret it.

I still don't agree with what this particular preacher said, but it's refreshingly closer to my own beliefs.

(Mine being very deviated from both the traditional scientific view and the most comon Christian/Jewish [They share the same beliefs until Jesus shows up, people. Although I would hope you already knew that...] view. Well, its more of a mix. To simplify it, Whatever deity does exist created what eventually turned into the earth and the heavens in their present state, knowing that they would do so. Thus, the scientific events took place, but not completely naturally. But that's very simplified.)

Mwah!

Sorry I haven't been on lately to people who talk to me and whatnot. Computers need to get less freeze-ey.

Ski club again Saturday. One of the guys got beat up horribly by the ground. It's his fault for going in the terrain park and off a jump when he doesn't know how to stop yet...

I'm happy 'cause on my last run of the day, I was able to get all the way down the hill, including stopping without falling. Now I want to learn how to turn toeside beter so that I can "S" down the hill, not go back and forth like a feather, only more diagonal.

The bus ride home was... interesting. I don't want to go into detail, 'cause it's not really that... decent. Let's just say there was a girl, a strap, and a guy reaching up the back of her shirt. And later she put certain things back on. Discreetly, though. Not that it matters to me. I mean, it's not like I care.

"AAAAH! I've been detached!" - Amy, girl from above.

The Cheshire Cat

You're the epitome of insane. Either you're very smart, or you're too damn stupid. The world is your playground, and everything -- and everyone -- in it is a toy for you to play with. People should be scared of you, but because you're so affable, they aren't. Tough for them.

Tests are cool.

I don't quite get it. I am smarter, fitter, and bolder than my potbellied brother ever could hope to be, yet he gets all the fame, fortune, and glory, not to mention Peach's heart. If only I was the first player in Super Mario Bros... things could have been different. Maybe I can make a comeback, now that I finally have my own game.. but probably not. After all, I'm just Luigi.


What Super Mario Bros character are you?

I like tests.

I am most like http://www.eiu.org.

I am a very tongue-in-cheek person. It's often hard to tell if I'm being serious,
and I have almost a kinda spooky vibe.
I'm also very inquisitive, and like to question what most take for granted.

Oohhhh, I'm sore...

Ski Club Saturday. ^_^


It's just my shoulders and elbows that are sore, but still... And the really odd thing is that I don't recall using them that much...


It was fun, though. The place we're going this year is much beter than the crap-tastic place we went last year. It's well run, there're lotsa good trails, it's clean, the food is good, and less of a ripoff, and the snow stays longer in that part of Ohio, so there'll be much less fake snow, if any. You can not stop on that stuff...


Plus, their group program is much better. There are no lesson Nazis, and they have photo IDs, instead of paper passes that are easily destroyed.


I fell a lot, because I can't properly stop yet. I need to turn better before I can completely stop. At least now I'm doing use-board-to-slow-down, fall, stop, not fall, slow-down-using-ass,stop. I almost stopped once, but bit it horribly. But it didn't hurt, and was fun. I went up to a trail that crosses one, and then has a little outlet onto a less-steep-at-the-end trail. Unfortunately, I turned off the trail where it crossed the other, not at the outlet. So I'm going down a hill that's steeper than expected (Not too stepp, though. I was sticking on the not-so-steep 'cause it was my first time boarding in a while.), and I get to the end going somewhat fast, 'cause I can't turn enough to go down back and forth, and thereby slower, without falling. I turned to stop, and almost did. Now, to help you non-boarders, the way you stop a snowboard is to turn it horizontal, and put your weight on the uphill side, in this case my heel side. Then I hit a tiny little clump of snow, and my weight went to my toes. The board caught and stopped, but I didn't. I flew forward, my chest hit the ground, and my feet and legs came up over my back, but diidn't hit it. It didn't hurt, so that's good. My fall entertained a nearby group of guys, though. Of course, if I had landed closer to my face, it might've been a serious injury. First, my face'd hurt, second, I'd have been bending my spine a lot closer to my neck.


But I didn't get hurt, so it was fun.

Field trips = fun.

Especially when the Academic CHallenge team wasn't even originally scheduled to go. Our advisor figured that sicne she was going, the team should, too. The "Official" reason was the Mytholorgy is one of our categories in the team choice round. The trip was Latin III & IV going to see the "Mythology of Star Wars" exhibit that's touring from the Smithsonian adn is currently in a nearby museum. (No, the museum is not in Sandusky. I wish it was. At least then the town'd have some culture...)

The ride there was fun. The team took the back of one of the buses, and it;s always interesting when we're all together. Especially when the JV team is there, too. We have ways of linking topic together nobody ever would think of. On the way back, we went from a person with a name that likely caused much ridicule to menopause (And meno"stop", and meno"freeze frame", and meno"eject", etc.) to... I forget, but it was barely related.

We also shred bad jokes. "How many fleas does it take to screw in a light bulb? Two!", "Why was Helen Keller's hand purple? She heard it through the grapevine!" and such.

After getting through the Star Wars thing, which was actually somewhat interesting (I get the feeling that nobody could decide on one concept drawing of Amidala, so they used as many as possible in the film...), we went through the rest of the museum, in little groups. When I'm rich and build a mansion, I'm putting museum floors. Those things make the collest noises as you walk.

There was a Glass Art exhibit, which contained a punch bowl that is supposedly the largest single piece of cut glass in te world, created for the 1904 World's Fair. There was a lot of interesting art in the museum, but I noticed that 90% of all nuce figures were female, 9% were children, and I didn't find the other percent anywhere. Dissapointing, but understandable, given that most famous artists are male, and the female ones tend to be alive past the period where painting or sculpting nudes wasn't shocking. Ah well, it was art-y. That's the important part.

After looking at art for a while, (including a piece titled "Gay Above All" O.o) we went and got lunch at the museum cafeteria. It was really good. I got a pizza and a drink, and the pizza was really, really good. The first piece's cheeze was still really stretchy, 'cause they had to wait for more pizza to cook and bring it to me, so it was fresh out of the oven (Yet not too hot. ^____________^). The rest was good, but the cheese didn't stretch, which is good, 'cause after a point it starts to get annoying.

One of my freinds got fried chicken, baked potato, and vegetables that had been cooked somehow. She said that all of it was good, and that the vegetbles were the best cooked vegetables she ever had. That might be saying more about whoever cooks in her house than it is about the cooks at the museum, but I don't know. ^_^;;

I missed all of school but Hancy. And I'm a tad scared, 'cause I had fun in that class. See, we're just starting "A Midsummernight's Dream", and we're acting/directing Act 1 Scene 2 as a class. Directing is really, really fun. The actors left, and we decided on the time period, and what each character was like, except for one, because he had one line: "Here, Peter Quince!"

The actors were sent back in, and we directed them as they acted, the people who have been in plays more than others, 'cause we knew we could interrupt the actors as they read thier lines. Flute, ironically, was played by a girl, and we had decided that he was a kinda young man, trying to fit in with "the guys." Thus, after she read a line, we explained, and told her to "act as masculine as possible." So we went back a bit, and when she read her line, well, think of Haruka's voice, then go a tad lower. SHe was okay until "Nay, let fate not be that I play a woman!" She couldn't read it, and just started laughing.

We got through the scene a couple times, and then I got called down to the North entrance with everybody else who'd be going on the trip. (So I'm not the most chronological writer. Sue me. **Sees army of lawyers charging** I wasn't serious! **Army backs off**)

And now I'm home. Have been for a while, actually. ^_^;;

Well, I discovered anothe gay steryotype I don't fit.

I hate shopping for clothes.

At least, I hate shopping for clothes with my mom. I don't know about on my own, but I see no reason to buy more clothes, so...
I'm out of school early.

There was a water main break just outside of the schoool in the morning, and they fixed it, but there wasn't any normal water at school, everything that came out once the "fixing" was done was brown, and at higher pressure than usual.

Then the "fixed" pipe broke again, so tehy had to completely shut down the water system around the school, so, by law, we had to leave school early.

Darn. I was really looking forward to being "taught" Chemistry today...

Fwee...

Happy new year, I guess. I don't get what's so special about the change from Dec. 31 to Jan. 1... Think about it. An infinite number of new years started as you were reading that, it's just none of them are new calendar years.

That and the "celebration" in my house is nonexistant. Almost. We watch the ball drop, but that's it.

Ah well. It's not like I'd have fun if we did celebrate, since it'd seem pointless to me anyway, so...
