Why can't you just remember the times you didn't understand the homework in 6th grade?!

I had to fill out a 'pink slip' today. You wanna know why? Cuz I didn't understand the homework. She didn't explain it. I'm being calm right now, because I already freaked out this morning when I woke up at 6:30.

I hate it when I do that. Especially since I loose hope in my original outfits. I was gonna wear a yellow dress over red tights and a silver belt over the yellow dress, but I was so mad and stressed I couldn't do it, so I wore sweats and Converse.

I made these yesterday. I'm going to work on some laytah:

Okay, if you didn't know I posted twice yesterday. Sorry 'bout that. My JibJab post and my 'Idiotic' post.

It's kinda funny in this video because Joe is wearing his Ray Bans while playing basketball.

Also, WHO LOVES THE NEW "LOVEBUG" MUSIC VID?! I missed it last night, so i watched it on YouTube and it is the best music video evah!! GO WATCH IT. Btw, it's by JoBros.

We went for gelato after school today with our homeroom teacher. 'We' is Cassidy, Emelei and me. I swear, she and Ms. Dumont are the best teachers in the school. (Ms. Brown-- you are the best at Olive). I couldn't decide whether to have pumpkin cheesecake gelato or chocolate-peanut butter. (I chose choc-pb). We talked the whole time, there was NO moment of silence. Right after school, all the staff had to go to an hour long faculty meeting, so we did our homework in her room. Anyway, the best afterschool activity besides making Polyvores is going out after school with one of your fave teach-ahs!

Yesterday, I fell off an electric scooter and clobbered by foot. It's all swollen and it hurts when I walk on it ... really badly. Hopefully, it improves. The good part is I finished most of my L.A. homework in the library because I got to skip gym.

We're doing this archeological section in Social Studies and Ms. Dumont showed us the scene in The Little Mermaid when Ariel went to Skuttle to show him the fork and pipe. And I've seent eh movie so many times and I had sooo much energy I kept on saying "it's a 'dingle-hopper'" and everyone said, "no it's a fork" and then finally Skuttle the seagull said "it's a 'dingle-hopper'". Anyway, yopu have to watch it. But, I was being really crazy. I was sitting on Swetha's desk and making weird sounds and blurting things out and singing "So What" by Pink when Cass, Emelei, and I were finishing homework. I got even more energy, though after all that sugarrrr. I seriously need to stop now.

Idiotic

I'm really mad right now, because for our Thanksgiving break, my parents are making us go to Vermont to see "the beautiful foliage". GOSH DANG IT WE ARE ALREADY DRIVING 8 HOURS ACROSS CALIFORNIA FOR PART OF OUR CHRISTMAS BREAK NOW YOU ARE MAKING US DRIVE TO UPSTATE NEW YORK, DO AN OVERNIGHT, THEN DRIVE TO BURLINGTON VERMONT AND DO AN OVERNIGHT THERE AND GO BACK HOME. DOES THAT SOUND FUN TO YOU?! WELL, I KNOW THAT IT DOESN'T TO ME. I AM FREAKING OUT BECAUSE I REALLY WANNA GO TO MANHATTAN INSTEAD. IF I GET REALLY WORKED UP AND GET A STOMACH ACHE... IT'S MOM AND DAD'S FAULT.

'Kay, I'm done YELLING AND BEING A MANIAC about that. *deep breathe*

Well, uh, we went to a flea market today. That was the good part of my day. There was vintage everything (except for the food). I also saw old records and black hats and old Coach purses for $30. I didn;t get anything though. I figured I would go back again another time. My parents are becoming more cautious about money these days it seems like.

I'm thinking about doing Red Cross so I can be a certified babysitter so I can get some money. Plus eBay. I still have some stuff for eBay. Not much, though.

I want, so bad, to live in a semi-fantasy world, own a pie shop, and solve mysteries in headscarves and high-waisted plaid pants. But, then again, I also want to become an actor the hard way and NOT GO TO VERMONT and own every oz. of Marc Jacobs there is. What a dream.

Dear God, help me.

Lemme take a break from my magazine and talk to you

I'm in the middle of reading Seventeen mag, but I have decided to update since I was Googling 'Mimi Chica'.

We were going to go to Six Flags tonight (as you know already) but after dance class and errands, we're going next weekend. I absolutely can't wait for Halloween, so I made these Polyvores this morning:

You Jump, I Jump by Mrs.Jonas

Not-So-Happy Sweet 16 by Mrs.Jonas

They were just random ideas.

It's getting really cold outside. We have a fire going in the living room and I'm wearing a sweater, jeans, and a sweatshirt to keep me warm. When I get the right fabric I'm going to sew myself a purse made of velvet roses. I'll take a picture of it when I finish.

Caroline, my sister, is getting her hair straightened this Tuesday. I have a math project due Tuesday, a math quiz on Monday, homework due Monday, church tomorrow, gelato with Ms. Husami and Cassidy on Monday, and I'm selling some white leggings on eBay sometime this week. Busy, busy.

'Kay, I'm gonna get back to my magazine.

Back from the dead.

This shows how fashionable my S.S. teacher is:

Moxie Baby by Candalina

She made it. It's gorgeous, Ms. D!

'Kay, I talked to my dad, Six Flags is for sure annnnddd... MY DAD HIRED THIS MAN FOR HIS WORK THING AND HIS WIFE IS THE CHIEF DESIGNER FOR VIC SECRET AND MY DAD IS GOING TO SEE IF I CAN GO TO MANHATTAN AND GO "BEHIND THE SCENES"! Isn't that awesome?! I also hope for a gift card and a makeup bag. Also, my mom is into design, so yeahhh, she'll prob come IF it happens. Don't get your hopes up.

I'm having a costume crisis. So, I'm going to look like the pathetic JoBro fan on Halloween 'cause the highest amount of money I can go to is $50. And the pants are what I want the most which are $40 so that might be a problem. My mom wants to find someone who does graffitti-style art, so they can spray paint a tee, a sweatshirt, and a hat, and a bag. I still feel pathetic. :-( Oh well. I'll try. Hopefully next year I'll be able to sew my costume.

I just made this:

After homework I spent my time making these.


What to wear with Daisies by Mrs.Jonas


Gilt Groupe #2 by Mrs.Jonas
I know, I'm pathetic. I am obsessed with Polyvore.

Everyday (with the exception of Thursdays-Sundays), when I come home I...
1. take my shoes off
2. put them in the shoe basket
3.put my bag down
4. get a snack (most likely to be pudding, a burrito, soft pretzel, pita bread and hummus, or a cookie or two)
5. go upstairs in my room
6. do my homework on my desk
7. skip cleaning up and head for the computer
8. then, who knows?

Today in gym, we had to play soccer in the wet grass, so my legs got all muddy from bumping into muddy people and kicking a muddy ball. I swear, the only sport I can do is dance and running.

I can't wait for Friday afternoon, bacause after school Cassidy, my teacher, and I are walking to a gelato place after school. Their gelato looks deeeelish! I think I want pumpkin... to get in the spirit for Halloween...
