If I Were You, I'd Calm Down

2006-01-15T16:25:58Z

so this is just me updating this lousy thing for the sake of just that, updating. because I'm getting bored of livejournal...again. and I'm just happy. just really fucking happy. and I just kdjakheuryhfndsmjaaghdfhdfhahahghhghgfahahhdjsahh i don't know, i just feel good.

and with that I say adieu.

Wow...

Fuck Me I'm Famous

2006-01-11T03:32:38Z

so la dee da, it's final's week. fun fun fun. I have my World History/World Literature finals tomorrow for two hours each but, thankfully, I get out at 12:30. although, I do have to stay after until 1:00 in order to practice for my dance final on Thursday. which I am completely unprepared for and that I randomly threw a grapevine into. god bless 6th grade for teaching me how to line dance.

Next semester, I have teachers with the whitest names ever. Salisbury, Branco, Dudley, and McMahon. well okay, the last two just sound dementedly Irish. but it still amused me. and I'm taking Chemistry Honors, Spanish 2, Geometry, and 11th grade American Literature all in one semester. I think I need to be institutionalized.

Bless the school system for random Martin Luther King Jr. Day induced four day weekends. and with that I say adieu.

Start Acceleration Take It Back To Square One!!!

2006-01-04T01:51:36Z

for god's sake, why am I so happy? someone, explain it to me because I truly do not understand it at all.

last night my mom started having what sounded like an almost-asthma attack and we had to pack up and go to this hotel in downtown sunnyvale across from the Goodwill. apperantly, ripping out our carpet realeased asbestos into the air (look it up because I'm not explaining). and the whole "we're painting our ceilings!!! yay fumes!!!" thing didn't help much either.

so at first look, our hotel is a stoggy old place with heroine addicts and a creepy old lady named Mary behind the front desk. our room actually smells okay and the bathtub is gigantic. there's a king size bed so I have to share with my mom but it's actually okay. aside from the fact that she snores like a train and all that jazz. we get random free HBO and TBS and some more random TV channels, free breakfast that actually isn't half bad; although they have the worst coffee ever.

our first semester is shaping up nicely and I think I have pretty good grades in all of my classes. you know, as soon as I get my english grade out of the danger zone. in dance, we get to make up at least a minute of choreography to whatever song we choose. I love using my creative left braininess. and in world history, we're learning about different religions in the Middle East, which always facinates me. then we get to have this hugecrazy debate on friday which I am completely excited for. although...debates=everyone getting pissed at me for talking too much. oops.

next semester I have chem honors first block, spanish 2 second block, and geometry third block. I couldn't get Adv. Drama for second block because I couldn't switch my spanish class for anything. *tear* oh well I'll just take it next year. that's another thing. I don't think I want to transfer to Homestead next year. I mean, I really really really wanted to last year but that was because school and life in general was just going majorly terrible for me. I have, what, like three friends there? I have really fantastical relationships with all three of them too and I don't go to the same school as them now. Sure, it'd be great to go to the same school as them but it's just too much hassle to have to re-adjust...again.

that's another thing; friends. Things are going super well in that department. Julia and I are finally back on completely great terms and that always sticks me in my best-mood-boots. And, yeah, I've said it like 52984792134490564934856543560132425 times but I will say it again:

I FUCKING LOVE YOU ALL SO FUCKING MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

eep, yes. excuse the obscene length of this post. I don't do it often. and with that I say adieu.

Trying Hard To Look Like Gary Cooper

2006-01-01T00:26:49Z

In the year 2006 I resolve to:

Eat at least 2 pigeons a week.

Get your resolution here

and you know, other things. I resolve to:

+try to get along with my stepmom more no matter how much it kills me
+grow my hair out to at least my shoulders
+be a better friend in general to people
+not abuse my cellular phone-age
+give my opinion more and not just sit back and let other people decide for me
+stop eating gross processed fast food junk unless I'm really really forced to
+get a goddamn 4.0 for once
+start doing yoga again
+write lots more, hell, every day
+read more (every day)
+learn to play my keyboard better
+try to accept things as they come and that life won't always be perfect but you've just got to deal with it and there are some things you can't change
+just love my life

and with that I say adieu.

Deep In The Night....

2005-12-31T18:19:51Z

*giggle* ok just to clear some things up:

julia + claire = most awesome people in the entire world

we're back and I'm going to write a jazz song about it with canes and top hats. talking for 6 hours straight and then choreographing the ding dong song really does something. I missed Clulia and I'm glad we're back.

"confessions of a teenage drama queen" pictures are foxy. and I want onion rings *slams fist on table*!!!

I hope you are all having a happy New Year's Eve. eek, I have to come up with some resolutions...

and with that I say adieu.

If I Could Open My Mouth Wide Enough For A Marching Band To March Out

2005-12-23T22:34:50Z

it's the eve of christmas eve. I'm still in awe over the fact that it's December. seems like yesterday it was summer vacation and a week ago I was seeing the All American Rejects with Julia at my school's random carnival. time's weird like that though I guess. I'll save the philosophical entry for New Year's Day but just be prepared for my deep crazy hippie side to emerge.

sitting at Starbucks while listening to Frank Sinatra as it rains = perfect.

and with that I say adieu.

You Wish You Had A Wand Of Light Like Me & Julia

2005-12-22T05:44:56Z

so today I went over to Julia's house and basically, we're the coolest people in the history of ever. first we went to Micheal's and bought:

+ 2 spools of pink & purple polka dot ribbon

+ 2 paintbrushes

+ 2 mini foam tiaras (one pink one purple)

+ 2 Christmas ornament thingies with blue and pink jewels

Then we measured a strip of ribbon to our exact height and wrapped/hot glued it to the paintbrush handle for our Measure Of Courage. We cut off the bristles of the paintbrush and glued the foam tiaras to the tops to make our Ring Of Love. Then we took the jewels and put the on the very top of the paintbrush where the bristles used to be to make our Gem Of Ice Lit By Hope's Eternal Flame. Then volia! Wands of Light.

We played Musical Bop-It which is where we'd put Julia's Limewire on shuffle and do the passie thing with the Bop-It. Everytime we had to start over, we'd play a new song. Julia's basically got the best music taste ever. We're so hardXcore that we listen to Mary Kate & Ashley and The Click Five.

In short, you wish you were as cool as us. and with that I say adieu.

p.s. you won't get this if you haven't seen Barbie & The Magic Of Pegasus. or basically if you aren't us and crazy.

Why I Despise Local Shows

2005-12-20T07:37:17Z

1) If you are not dressed like a proper scene girl (pearls, blonde/black hair, flashy earrings, eyeliner, supertightsize0jeans) , no one from the bands playing with acknowledge you.

2) If you actually have hair your normal color or not bleached, no one from the bands playing with acknowledge you.

3) If you are not anything but a size 2 or lower, no one from the bands playing with acknowledge you.

4) If a guy from one of the bands comes up to you and your friend and says he's 19 and he's hitting on your 14 year old friend, he will not talk to you because you call him a pedophile.

5) If your hair isn't straight and in a reverse mullet, people will look at you funny.

6) If you sit in a corner listening to Motion City Soundtrack on the floor laughing and singing along while everyone else is hardXcore dancing to A Life In Vain, the guy who gave you the wristband you're wearing will come hit on you repeatedly.

So basically I wasted $12 and am never doing that ever again. And as I walked past people smoking cigarettes, I would scream loudly "SMOKING KILLS!". I was given lovely gestures in return. This is what I have learned:

+ + =

SCENE!!!

and that robots are the new dinosaurs.

and with that I say adieu. <3

Frank fails to see the humour in my sad attempts at breakdancing at every bar along Lyndale Avenue

2005-12-18T04:36:41Z

so wet hot american summer = the best movie ever only preceeded by sexmission and but im a cheerleader is pretty damn good too. it's winter break and it doesn't feel like it. but I'm really okay with life right now. I can't see anything wrong with it. my friends and I are just pretty goddamn fabulous and my mom and I are getting along really well. everything is just really good right now and I feel like grinning. and I'm listening to this mix CD that cristal made me and this song is really great. "you can't put two hotels on mayfair" by the maple state and I strongly suggest that you download it. it just makes me feel good and I have no idea why.

I just feel really great right now and there is hardly an explanation. I want everyone to be this happy. I could just burst open and shoot rainbows over everyone. and with that I say adieu. <333333333333333333333333333

p.s. ever notice how kill hannah always talks about "dying young"? silly mat devine *tackles and makes love*

You Spin Me Right Round Baby Right Round Like A Record Baby Right Round Round Round

2005-12-12T01:16:28Z

so claire's pretty fucking happy. my room is carpetted for the first time since 7th grade. I just need my bed/bookshelf/desk and then I'll be all set. I'm just debating whether or not I actually have room for a desk, which I'm almost sure I don't. oh well, I can do my homework on the floor and all that good stuff. and I dunno, life makes me smile lately. and winter break makes me really happy because I need to see a lot of people and I will have the oppurtunity to very soon. but right now, I need pizza. and with that I say adieu. <3

Who Took The Bomp From The Bompalompalomp?

2005-12-11T04:46:58Z

weeee!!! yeah I don't know I'm just insane. excuse that. but anyway I have nothing to update about really. I have Christmas presents for most people except for a few. my dad is arguing about the woman who got charged for neglecting the kid who got killed by that train with my stepmom. it's strange to hear them argue. you never really think parents argue with their second wife/husband. you just think of them arguing with the first one or whichever one was your parent.

anyhow, christmas break is in a week and that relieves me. school has gotten repetative and a break will be nice. ummm, I saw harry potter again today. and that was about it. and "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tiffany is my new favorite song. 80'sXcore like mad. and with that I say adieu.

Oops, I Didn't Do It...But Did You Like It?

2005-12-08T23:08:00Z

so this santa letter thing is far too amusing. and I did it two [2] times. and I'm still laughing.

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

Last Monday I bought porn for _mylagoldberg_ (-10 points). In June I put money in disko_sunshine's expired parking meter (14 points). Last Sunday I pulled notxscene's hair (-5 points). In November I ruled Duluth, Minnesota as a kind and benevolent dictator (700 points). In March I caught a purse-snatcher who stole prettyinpunk187's purse (30 points).

Overall, I've been nice (729 points). For Christmas I deserve an Easy-Bake Oven!

Sincerely,
magentaspiders

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

In August I helped _mylagoldberg_ across the street (6 points). Last Thursday I gave brunettie47 a kidney (1000 points). Last Friday I pushed prettyinpunk187 in the mud (-17 points). In May I bought porn for disko_sunshine (10 points). Last Tuesday I signed my organ donor card (28 points).

Overall, I've been nice (1027 points). For Christmas I deserve a new dolly!

Sincerely,
magentaspiders

boy oh boy have I been insane. anyhow, today I'm off to see [the wizard] Lauren's choir dealy mcthing. I have to write stupid poems for Literature because, well frankly, they hate me. We're studying the Holocaust [again] in World History. It's a big whoopdee-doo and we're watching The Pianist tomorrow. Adrian Brody is a fox but it's really sad x4. Andddd, I'm going X-mas shopping on Saturday so tell me what you want you fiends!!!

I Won't Worry My Life Away

2005-12-06T04:47:56Z

so I haven't listened to Jason Mraz in forever. and I don't know why. "The Remedy" is possibly the happiest song I have, save a few Zolof ones. it just really makes me smile and feel a whole lot better. if I ever met this guy, I'd give him a hug. I just don't feel like being depressed and I won't be. I have nothing to be sad about. If you ever just want to be happy, just listen to it. I'm serious, either I'm insane or this song just makes people happy. prove me wrong, I dare you.

I saw fireworks from the freeway and behind closed eyes I cannot make them go away
Cause you were born on the fourth of july, freedom ring
now something on the surface it stings
that something on the surface it kind of makes me nervous who says that you deserve this
and what kind of god would serve this? We will cure this dirty old disease
if you've got the poison I've got the remedy

the remedy is the experience. It is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious. Which is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how youre gonna spend the rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends because it all amounts to nothing in the end.

I wont worry my life away.
I wont worry my life away.

I heard two men talking on the radio in a cross fire kind of new reality show
Uncovering the ways to plan the next big attack
they were counting down the days to stab the brother in the be right back after this
the unavoidable kiss, where the minty fresh death breath is sure to outlast his catastrophy
dance with me, because if you've got the poison, I've got the remedy

the remedy is the experience. It is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious. Which is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how youre gonna spend the rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends because it all amounts to nothing in the end.

I wont worry my life away.
I wont worry my life away.

When I fall in love I take my time
There's no need to hurry when I'm making up my mind
You can turn off the sun but I'm still gonna shine and I'll tell you why
Because

the remedy is the experience. It is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious. Which is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend the rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends because it all amounts to nothing in the end.

I wont worry my life away.

Pride & Prejudice

2005-12-05T05:31:25Z

good lord that was terrible. I don't care what other people say, it has nothing on the novel or the mini series. colin firth is a far better mr. darcey and crispin bonham-carter is a far better mr. bingley. and people behind me were on crack because they laughed far too loud. I won't bother ranting about the discrepances because I don't think many of you would know what I was talking about. I saw the trailer for the Cillian Murphy transvestite movie and it randomly has Liam Nieson in it. and it's really really really cold x2. and with that I say adieu.

p.s. (<---see he's better as Mr. Darcey)

Was It More Than Attraction & A Physical Lust?

2005-12-03T02:41:02Z

yes, I'm well aware this is my second update today. but I had to. I'm so happy for pretty much no reason. Julia is in a good mood. that makes me so happy. I love it when my friends feel good. I'm just sitting here with my hair up in a ponytail for the first time in literally years and listening to the faint and smiling my ass off. annette will be here soon and I just love you all more than you can ever imagine. so *hugs and kisses everyone* because I'm feeling rather chipper. <333333333333333333

I Could Not Help But Noticing All These Robots Fucking In The Middle Of The Mini Mall

2005-12-02T23:31:26Z

so today I realized how much I'll miss my friends at Fremont if I transfer to Homestead. I wish I could bring them all with me. or bring all my Homestead buddies (which is only about 2 or 3 people actually o.O) to Fremont. which makes me almost not want to transfer out of Fremont. I just have no idea what the hell I want to do. it all basically depends on if there's room or not. so I'll be happy if I transfer obviously but I'll still be happy if I stay. either way I'll be missing people like crazy.

anyhow, after school me melissa august & anna were basically going insane. anna randomly had a ball of clay that she stole from the art room. and according to august I'm destined to be raped by Cillian Murphy...in my own home...while drunk...yeah I wouldn't ask, it's too complicated. we were screaming things at random people who walked by and I started to miss Drama really bad. if I can't add Adv. Drama next semester, ima cry. drama is my favorite class ever. it's usually got all my friends in it and I just love acting with a wild passion. I love being somebody else for a little bit. *points to self* yes I am a drama geek *smile*

annette's coming over in 3 1/2 hours which makes me smile. I hardly see her and I love her to death like mad. and apperantly my hair should be all pretty by march. and all I've had to eat today was a bag of chips and two starburst. woo I'm healthy! and with that I say adieu.

p.s. (<--- fox)

Meet By The Backdoor Run For Our Social Lives

2005-12-01T05:12:26Z

so emanuel=love. just thought I'd say that. and I've noticed a good many of my friends are in therapy. and I think I should go. depression happens to run in the family. and claire hasn't been feeling too chipper lately. but I don't know. I do have a lovely tendency to be a hypochondriac [see: patient with imaginary symptoms and ailments].

anyhow, besides that, life is pretty good. nothing to complain about. I do wish my friends' lives could get better. like times 3897238472348923752395. I help when I can but I guess I can't do anymore than that.

my hair is growing. I need long hair like...now. and it's been raining this week. and it makes me ecstatic.

what am I talking about? I'm happy damn it. Catcher In the Rye rocks my pants. off. and with that I say adieu.

Harry Potter + Choxie = Sex

2005-11-29T05:28:32Z

yep. yesterday julia and I went to see the 4th harry potter movie. GOD they cut sooooo much from the book!!! it was quite bothersome. and even though julia and I decided to hold our rage until the end, it came out in wild hand gestures and scoffs of indignation. cedric is a fox. so is the guy who played barty crouch jr {david tennant} but only when he's all gross and unshaved. and voldemort is a fetus. umm best lines:

+ron: you know how I like to watch them walk...

+barty crouch jr. (to harry): I'll show you mine if you show me yours...

+cedric (to harry): you know *waggles eyebrows*, the prefect bathroom on the 5th floor is a great place to take a niceeee hot bathhhh

+neville: I've killed Harry Potter!!!

+ron: murder me Harry...

yes I'm sure there were more. like when voldemort touches harry and they're both screaming and moaning, that was pretty damn attractive. or when harry is woken up from his dream by hermione. no wonder it was rated PG-13. gosh. and with that here are pictures:

cinnamon praline

apple pie

lemon rose (and I promise I don't always have a blank stare)

key lime pie. and duh, they're our noses.

orange mango

jasmine tea o.O

Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?

2005-11-27T08:42:25Z

so in the past year my hair has changed a lot. as I'm sure you all have noticed and some can even atest to. so here it is, the past year, marked by claire's hair.

not fully sure when this was taken. although I'm betting early 9th grade.

birth of the emo hair. February 2005

emo hair grows out and bangs get significantly longer. April 2005

hair gets chopped off by lady who had no idea what she was doing. May 2005

hair grows out to this. Early June 2005

hair is cut by ari as result of boredom. Mid-June 2005

hair grows out and develops a side flip. August 2005

hair is cut stupidly because claire wants it to grow faster. Sept 2005

hair grew out a bit and was dyed blonde & purple by ari. Mid-October 2005

hair is dyed auburn and is like this currently.

I hope you enjoyed my little picture spree. I want to grow my hair out. To basically end up like this:

you know, minus the cigarette and the beer bottle. but I do like her dress/scarf...

Indie Boys Are Neurotic

2005-11-26T05:08:29Z

yep, yesterday was thanksgiving as I'm sure you all well know. turkey was had and football was watched. and my cousin said I looked like Audrey Hepburn...I guess she meant the hair. I'm never eating pie ever again because it makes me want to vomit. Yams + marshmellows= most disgusting/wonderful thing ever.

it was supposed to rain today. it kinda did. but mother nature/polar bears hate me so it stopped. eric and i went a little insane today. it was cold. I want more coffee. and eggnog tastes really gross.

and I'm seeing harry potter and the goblet of fire with julizzleizzle on sunday. so that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. yay for choxie! *puts on green dress*

and with that I say adieu.

You Don't Have To Spend You Just Have To Pretend

2005-11-23T03:44:20Z

erm yes, my life is now complete. they say "fornication" in a blood brothers song. not sure how I never noticed it before but there it is, plan and simple.

Burn piano island burn
And drown all your fucking riddles down the throat of the sea.
This one man raft won’t be coming back
So don’t talk out of tune to me.
From a distance the fornication of fear and flames twinkles so pretty

I love music, don't you?

and with that I say adieu.

p.s. that rhymed. shoot me now with my invisible shotgun.
