Couldn't Seem To Think Up A Killers Related Title

Oh Monday, how I love thee! Not.

School...Blergh. Geometry is such a pain. Right now we are doing this crazy trigonometry stuff with those sines and cosines and tangents. It all makes my brain hurt. I spent two whole hours of my study hall trying to figure out what the hell I was doing and got absolutely nowhere. Maybe I wouldn't be doing so badly if my teacher didn't completely SUCK. I have a test on friday on all this stuff that I will without a doubt fail if some miracle doesn't happen. I wonder if one of the Killers could tutor me...

I'm also crossing my fingers that my parents let me do track this spring. I want to do it so bad, and they want me to just focus on school, so we'll see if we can find a compromise.

Well, I'm off to study some more and play some piano. I'm trying to learn how to play Somebody Told Me, and it is not going too well.

That Clock Was Tickin' Too Fast

Let me just say this: I HATE SUNDAYS!!!

And sadly, the Sunday at the end of vacation is the worst of them all. Sad face :( I'm

But Wait! Something exciting happened today!!! My family and I went to the Peabody Essex Museum to see this Dutch artists exhibit. Thrilling stuff. (It actually was pretty cool; I was just really tired because I had had a sleepover the night before and stayed up a bit too late.)

So, my sister(Savannah) and I were VERY, VERY bored and basically just wandering around the halls. And out of nowhere, she shouts "Oh my god! THAT GUY LOOKS LIKE BRANDON FLOWERS!!!" I look, and see I guy who literally could be his twin. I actually had to look twice to make sure it wasn't him. The guy was wearing a blue plaid shirt, dark grey skinny jeans, and those glasses Brandon sometimes wears. He was the same height, same build, and look nearly identical to the Sam's Town Era Brandon Flowers. It was freaky!!!!!!

Anyway, savannah and I managed to entertain ourselves by stalking him around the museum. I do hope he didn't notice.

So the day was actually pretty fun. Up until now, I guess, when I realized I had a ton of homework to do. Maybe I'll go eat some girl scout cookies.

Oh, here's what the guy looked like: (Pretty snazzy, huh?)

The Clock is Tickin'

Oh vacation! Where are you going? Is it Friday already? Yes, I fear it is. That means on Monday, I'll be back at school...NO! I can't think such horrid thoughts!

Anyway, I would just like to congratulate my dear, dear friend BRANDON FLOWERS on winning the NME Most stylish Award. Take that, Lady Gaga! (All because of me, of course; I literally voted 1,000 times) Okay, so Crossfire did not win Best Music Video. That mad me kinda mad, even though I don't think it is the best music video ever. But on the bright side (open up my eager eyes...cuz I'm Mr. brightside!), the Biebster won Least Stylish AND worst album and those JoBros won Worst Band. So that sorta kinda almost makes up for the fact that Crossfire didn't win.

Bye Guys, I'm off to listen to more music and savor these last few days of freedom.

One more thing: The band Bright Eyes (which is AWESOME) is coming here in two weeks. The problem is it is on a school night and my mom would NEVER EVER EVER let me go. So I'm kinda pissed about that. Yep. And it would be at the House of Blues, which is where I saw Brandon Flowers a mere 3 months ago.

The King of Limbs

Do any of you people like Radiohead? I'm just asking because I'm seriously confused about their new CD (The King of Limbs) that came out friday. It seems to be between $45- $55(?!?!?!?!?) and you can't buy it on itunes. So yeah, if you have heard anything else about it, please let me know. I tried googling it and that just made my brain hurt even more.

Anyways, I shouldn't think about this too much because it is vacation, and I'm pretty sure it is illegal to think during vacation.

(Right now I really need to listen to some Sam's Town. It's probably been six hours since my last encounter and I'm starting to go through withdrawal.)

My Epic Running Story

I hardly write two posts a week, never mind two in the same day. But I felt it was necessary to tell you all about my failure of a run.

Like mentioned in my earlier post, it was 50°. Warm enough to wear shorts, right? Anyways, I started on my run, and everything was going fine. The sun was just started to set and the air was still warm and "spring-ish". And then my ankles started to throb and burn. Pretty soon I was hobbling along like an old lady. Running was with any great speed was definitely out of the question, so I figured I better take a short cut across the field if I wanted to be home before dark.

Little did I know that said field was covered in about two feet of snow. Only, I didn't realize that until I had gone nearly 20 feet and it was too late to turn around. So, there I was in my little running shorts knee-deep in snow, stuck in the middle of a damn field. I don't even want to know what all those other, sensible people jogging in their sweatpants thought of me. (Not that I really care.)

So yup, that's my story. Not all that epic, really. Bye.




Brand New Year, Coming Up Ahead

Oh...Spring. It isn't fair to tease me like this. Outside, it is 50°!!!!!! FIFTY FREAKING DEGREES!!!!!! WOW. This is probably the warmest it's been since, oh, maybe september? This isn't gonna last, but I'm gonna enjoy sunshine while I can. Let me pretend it is spring for just a moment. I'm going for a run.

Actually, it's "Happy Birthday, Ronnie Vannucci!"

Well, his birthday was yesterday, but I couldn't get on the computer. So yeah, Happy belated Birthday, Ronnie. You ROCK!!!!!

Maybe I'll Give it a Try

Who knows? Blogging could be fun.

UGH!!!!!! Are there worlds to describe how horribly depressing February is? We have mountains of snow and ice EVERYWHERE and I can't walk outside without almost DROWNING in it. That's what happens when you live in New England, I guess.

If only it was summer year round. Sigh...If only I lived in a perfect world. But the only way that will happen is if I go completely, utterly insane. Then maybe I'll be admitted to some sort of crazy folks hospital and I can sit in a straitjacket around thinking I'm in some tropical paradise. Hmmm...Maybe not.

Frebruary. Is. Stupid. But hey, on the bright side (coming out of my cage and I've been doing just fine...), ONLY 5 DAYS UNTIL FEB. BREAK!!! Wow, wasn't christmas just yesterday?


EDIT:

I found I picture with Brandon Flowers' face on a piece of toast. Is that not freakin' AWESOME?? I'll post the picture as soon as I find it again.

INDECISIVE

I don't know whether or not to blog. I had another blog, but then blogging got boring. I'm busy, and I don't have much to say that I'd want to share with the whole world. And if, nobody is gonna read it, wouldn't I just be better off with a diary? I don't know what to do.

Well, maybe you'll here from me again, maybe you won't. Who knows?
