Day 9- Every dayum shufflin.

Sorry I couldn't post about day 9 yesterday. I went from home, to school, to the orthodontist, to the football game, to my bed. Now my legs and mouth hurt from walking around and making out with all the football players at the game too much... lol jk I only wish. I walked around and talked a lot at the football game, but my mouth only hurts from getting my braces tightened. Agenda for this post will be: Quick summary of school, talking about the football game, and what I've done so far today... Let's get started!
School was okay. We had a class election first period, so I didn't get to go to fashion design. :( At least my extremely hug-a-ble friend *Mike won the election! I was talking to my friend *Destiny in gym class yesterday when *Dylan and one of his friends run over. Of course right as I'm about to open my mouth to talk to him, what do the gym teachers do? They blow the whistle and yell, "Everyone get into your squads!" *Heart plummets* There's always Monday? I have to "read" chapters 2 and 3 of To Kill a Mockingbird this weekend. By that I mean I'll just skim through it and once I remember what happened in those chapters I'll hang out with someone.
The football game was pretty good, actually. We still lost- 32 to 22 or something like that- but I talked to this senior named James who told me last year out of our first five games our point average per game was 3 points. As usual, I didn't actually pay attention to the game. I met and talked to a ton of people who I'll- most likely- never meet again. Here's the #1 conversation starter: Jenna Marbles. Not Justin Bieber, not Lady Gaga's newest outfit, Jenna Marbles. Don't know who she is? She's a Youtube star on the rise. Guys watch her because she's hot. Girls watch her because she's hysterical. Jenna's most famous for her video where she makes "the face" that you can use to get people to stop talking to you with. It goes something like this:

Sexy right? If you start talking about her- or even quoting her for that matter- people will laugh and probably join in! I met a ton of people that way. Why am I bringing this up also? So Jenna has one video where she makes fun of Sarah Palin and takes her top off. I was doing a "Sexy Sarah" impression where I stuck my chest forward and squished my boobs together when who walks by, but 3 of the freshman football players I've know since 4th grade. One of the guys went bug- eyed when they saw me since 1) I'm sexy. 2) He had never seen me acting like that. The guys of course walked down to the end of the stands then walked back, so I jokingly did my impression again for them to make them smile. The band had a good performance, but *Bianca, Sydney, and I had to leave early since I had a killer head ache.
Sydney and I had a sleepover last night and went to the mall this morning. Once she left I changed into sweatpants and an oversized T- shirt. I'm hopefully seeing Emily and Sydney tomorrow. Well, I need to go make dinner. Till then,
Bless ya! Love ya!

Day 8... or day 7 1/2


Phew! What a work out! I just got back from my jazz class. I'm so tired even though class is only an hour long. This is my second class in years. I did dance for 3 years when I was really little. Then I quit. For whatever reason I wanted to get started up again. We're working on a dance to "I Wanna Go" and it's turning out to be epic. For not doing dance for so long then starting up again, I think I'm doing pretty well; though my hip joints are killing me.

So today was a half day- *silently cheers*- so everything went pretty fast. The highlight of the day was joining clubs. Some clubs I'm sure I'm joining JSA, Human Relations Club, Becca's Closet, and- drum roll please- Gay Straight Alliance! No, I'm not gay or bi, I'm just a big supporter in the LGBTQ community. I'm so excited! A lot of my friends are joining, so it should be fun! The people in the club seem nice also. A lot of people recommend to join clubs- looks really good for college.
We just started reading To Kill a Mocking Bird in school. I have to finish reading that soon. I know this is sort of random, but I'm watching Project Runway and I love it when they're doing the side interviews and the people restate their questions so much you know what they were asked. Like in the last episode where the person Becky left and she was doing her goodbye interview and she said, "No, I don't think I went as far as I wanted." I always think, "Wow, I wonder what question they asked." (Sarcasm noted). Am I the only one that does that? (Mumbles) No you aren't Kailyn. I do that all the time! Oh thank you whoever said that!
I started drawing designs in my fashion design class! I love designing so much! I luckily have a template to follow for my clothes. The shape of my first dress looks like this:

I have a brown belt going across the waist. I think the colors will be a beige/ivory on the top and carrot orange at the bottom. There are matching orange buttons going down the front. It looks adorable in my opinion! My other design is a more casual look. It's a cropped, black and white striped, loose fitting T- shirt with high wasted boyfriend jeans- still working on the jeans though. Once I finish I'll post my designs on here. Any suggestions to design will be great.
Well I have to watch the end of Project Runway! Till then,
Bless ya! Love ya!

Sleeping Through Day 5


I couldn't fall asleep last night for whatever reason and somehow my mom messed up my alarm clock so it was 15 minutes fast. I was really tired overall. I was very annoyed at my English teacher today. Since it was 9:30 and I was still really tired when I got to her class I was a little crabby. I got really annoyed that I had to take pre- reading notes on To Kill a Mockingbird since I already read most of it, but what are you going to do?
In homeroom I had a good conversation with *Tabitha. I'm still debating whether she actually wanted to talk to me or she just had no one to talk to. I don't care though since Tabitha's nice to me. After Biology *Katy and I walked to gym together. We're starting to become closer and are almost becoming friends. Katy sparked up a conversation today for a change. Her starting a conversation is bigger than it sounds since I only have so many conversation starters.
I just realized I never told you guys about my best friend Emily. I was the new girl in my town in 4th grade and had no clue who anyone was or where anything was. Emily was the girl who got me from the office and showed me where everything was. I never mentioned her on here since this is mainly a school based blog and Emily and I don't have any classes together this year- not even lunch :(. The reason why I brought her up is we're probably going to hang out this weekend and there will be a post about it if we do- with pictures! Here's a picture of us in my front yard.

Us before we went to see the "Glee! Live Concert Movie"- which we're featured in! Our shirts say Lopez and Pierce since we're as close as Brittney and Santana.

So today was another gym class day where it felt like we were walking in looking like this (Yes,we're the cast of The Secret Life of an American Teenager.):

I knew we weren't because everyone- including the gym teachers- were looking at us like this:

^^  Chris Colfer forever <3. Any who, the new season of Glee is coming out  in one week, one day, 2 hours, and 49 minutes and I'm so excited! I have to finish going over my monologue for school. Till then,
Bless ya! Love ya!
