Still fat, but not caring so much....


Anyway, today has been...muy interesante.

Well, first of all, the Ed's cheerleaders had a car wash today, and so since I am TRES awesome, I got corn pads to go up there with me and harass Elizabeth and Britany. Then after, she came over, and we went in my backyard and froliced, while mother obsessed over the assembly of our stolen fountain. (which wasn't really stolen- the next door neighbours moved and gave it to us.) So, right. We fed the ducks in my backyard some bread, after winning a long, long fight with mom about whether or not the bread is healthy for the ducks. Like we care. Then we picked flowers and blew dandelions, and hiked through the muddy marshes behind my house.
After a while, we got bored, and progressed inside the house, where we made chocolate-chip mint cookies from scratch. The dough was good, but I'm not sure how the cookies are...(well, actually, they're good)
So, after the cookies were made, Corns listened to my randomly found CD and to Alstar by Smashmouth, and somehow we got onto the topic of Shrek 2. So, we decided to go see it. The movie itself was kinda sucky, as are all sequels, but the random little things in it were hilarious. Sexual inuendo....what!? (interrobang) Right, but the weird thing was, on the way to her house to pick up some cash, we were on Dover Center, and this plane flew overhead by maybe like 30-40 feet. It like swooped back up and then down- it was litterally skimming the tree tops. Can you say hilarious? It was so random- I'm pretty sure there were cops there, trying to get it down. Like someone in Westlake has a plane. And they flew it along Dover Center and Hilliard. WOW.

Eventually, Corn pads proceeded to work. Now, I was bored. So, I called Elizabeth. I was going to go over there, but then my parents were like "make her come here", so I did, and right when she rang our doorbell, Steve called her and invited her to Branches, I guess cuz they were trying to get Rob over there or something. Well, anyway, we ended up going over (you know, I'm begining to feel like a major tag-along. No one invites me, I only get to go if Elizabeth goes. Can we say major loser? I mean, if they dont want me to hang around, I shouldn't go, but Elizabeth makes me, and its stupid, cuz no one wants me there) Anyhoo, we swam and hot-tubbed for a bit (Elizabeth, Danny, Steve, Shamis, Matt, Colin, and I)(no, Rob never came) and then went indoors to watch invader Zim. I kinda miss that show.
Well, thats about all we did (we got there at like 8:30 and left at about 10:45) but the whole point is the Elizabeth's parentals didn't know she was there- they thought she was at my house. See, we explained to mother the whole "Elizabeth's-parents-don;t-exactly-know-about-Rob" thing. And my mother was being all understanding and whatnot, and agreed to cover for elizabeth. But then the stupid storm came, and her parents demanded her home while she was at steves, but she still had to return me home. Well, first of all, let me tell you- its fucking awesome to stick your head out the window while driving 65 k/hr into torrential rain fall. Secondly, her parents kept calling, and were like "where are you?" and she had to keep making stuff up.

Now she's returned online, and Jorge has randomly started harassing me, so I think I shall be off. Tooda-loo!

Interests of the Day:

@ I'm getting fatter and fatter. I now have to stop eating, cuz just exercising is being an anti-help. I'm going to miss:
-bosco sticks
-those pudding cup things
-ice cream
-bread, especially panera
-ice cream
-home-baked goods
-and ice cream
Then maybe I'll lose the five pounds I have gained in the last three months...

@An E-Mail from Caitlin:
* LateNight w/ Conan O'Brien Tuesday, May 25th 12:35 am (EST)
re-runs again Wed. 26th at 6:00 pm on Comedy Central
Daniel Radcliffe scheduled to appear

for those who don't know, that is the night of the Jason concert!!! Its like...jason..and daniel...on the same night! TRES excitement!

@An E-Mail to Caitlin:
The Top 10 Favorite Words
1. defenestration: a throwing of a person or thing out of a window

2. serendipity: the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for

3. onomatopoeia: the use of words whose sound suggests the sense (Examples: buzz, crash, whirr, clang hiss, purr)

4. discombobulate: upset or confused

5. plethora: excess, superfluity, profusion, or abundance

6. callipygian: having shapely buttocks

7. juxtapose: to place side by side

8. persnickety: fussy about small details

9. kerfuffle: disturbance or fuss

10. flibbertigibbet: a silly, flighty person

So, I knew about half those words. Discombobulate is a personal fave, actually. But now I am going to have to incorperate the other five or six or so into my vocabulary.

@Katie and I were the first to deploy our airbag! It was amazing- thanks to a tip by maggie and chelsea, we figured out that the volume is wrong on the bag. Yeah, those little zip-lock buddies? They hold much more than .95 L. We did 1.2L, and it was too little. I'm thinking 1.5 may fully inflate. Not that anyone really cares about reacting Sodium bicarbonate with acetic acid...........

@I'm going to the one-acts with Caitlin tonight. Some say they're bad, some say good. I suppose I shall find out for myself. After, I am under the understanding that we shall go out to dinner. Where I cannot eat. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT.

@Well, Elizabeth may know that I had a random blank CD that wouldn't burn. I got curious and decided to slap it in the ol' CD player. (Which I'm thinking may need a name) Well, it happens to be an old, old mix I must have made a copy of and forgotten about, as it were. It's kind of exciting- I'm listening to it now. It's kinda bad, but it brings back memories, so its okay.

@ Storm today. Amrazing, all black outside, then BOOM! Lightning! Thunder! Rain! mwahahahaha, eye heart thunderstorms!

@Shannon and I had fun running around the school, hunting down caitlin, and writing her secret messages. It turns out she didn't get any of them, but still, it was fun.

@ I got a thank you from Mrs. Pacetti today for the book Katie and I sent her for mother's day. She's so cute! I really, really ,really to the infinite powers of x wish that she was still my theo teacher. Hate. OB. Not orlando.

Look at me, I'm invisible!
You can't see me, but I can see you...
Listen to me- I know what you're doing wrong!
I may be invisible to you
But you are not to me.
Look at me- look harder, but I'm still invisible!
Weaving through everything
Am I even really there if you can't see me?
Even if I am, its easier to pretend I'm not
And keep moving past the invisibility
Look at me...I'm desperate
Shout, pulling, waving
But I'm still invisible, and you can't see me
Look at me, I tried to warn
You, but I'm still invisible.
Look at you.
Now, you're invisible, too.


I'm really, really tired. I so do not want to work on this history essay. I just burned myself three new CDs- AFI, Story of the Year, and Gavin DeGraw. Not that anyonw out there really cares that much. But now I have like 6 new CDs I haven't even listened to. Score. Maybe I'll go outside and work out the mysteries of chemistry, so that Katie and I do not fail this lab tomorrow. Dmn stoichiometry. Who invented that word, anyway? 'Cuz it is actually kinda cool sounding.

Anyway, I best be off- mucho to do!

I'm so LAZY. Perezoso. Laissez-faire. (okay, that last one isn't exactly lazy, but its kinda close, in its own "Stef-Doesn't-know-french" kind of way)

I'm off to the great outdoors!

Jason in: 4 days
Harry Potter in: 15 days
School's out in: 20 days

Summer is so close, but still so far...

So, let's route out my day, because I am a boring loser like that, and don't do much inner-most thought posting, so we'll just bore the (few) readers with the monotnus details of my day...

Well, I only had threeish classes. In American Lit, I amused yet scared Carmony, cuz I'm like that, and I kept flapping my arms and calling myself an extinct bird. Like I got through the entire year w/o her noticing me, and then today (well, it was more like monday), she finally identifies me as a student of hers. Britnay has the same problem. And we were hiding so well in our corner...

Chem sucked, Algebra quiz, then gym class, which was a waste of time...

Then the women's conference. It was kinda interesting- even though Dever and I agree that women's literacy around the world has reached a dead end. But still, I enjoyed bashing Sarah Dorenkott's implementation plan, which was basically "educate your women or we will nuke you". Needless to say, it didn't have a positive responce... Maggie Antonelli's was passed...even though I'm not a fan of hers, I have to admit it was probably the best of the three plans. Whatever. I only got to say one thing, and I was dressed oddly, with my chem goggles (which are all pretty-fied) on since I was Maria Goeppert Mayer, some nobel-prize winning physisist. I forgot my science olympiad medal though. Hahahaha.....bummer......

I spent me afternoon at Mitchells with Elizabeth, and then she came over, and I burnt a total of 10 Cds- 7 for her, 3 for me. All my CDs kinda suck, though, I've decided. After mentioning this point to Danny he said he'd make me a copy of the CD he's making for Elizabeth that doesn't suck. New music. Yay!

So, anyway, while at my house, Elizabeth found my toxicity box. Well, that's not really it's purpose, but it just happens to have sharpies, rubber cement and white out all kept together. (Its an art box, okay? I use the sharpies [I have 12 colours!!!!] for colouring CDs) anyway, she was sniffing the cement stuff. It creeped me out. And since I knoe you read this, I might as well just say it- it was really weird, and really scary, and you better not become an inhalant addict, cuz there's no way I will ever talk to you again if you do. You listened to Polzie.....yeah. Right. Queerdo.

People who get high confuse me. Almost (but not quite) as much as people who get drunk.

Um, so yeah. I'm planning on Friday to attend the One Act Plays with Caitlin. Looking forward to that. Saturday, who knoes?

YES~! American Idol is over! I may go in peace, to sleep!

Okay, okay, I know- it's two posts in one day, but I can't help it- we have entered a new phase of Orlando Bloom loving.
It's scientific name is "Orlando Bloom hating"
Okay, yeah, I saw troy and its GAY cuz at the end you hate orlando! But you still love brad pitt- even though he was kind of an egotistical biggot throughout the movie- at least he was a noble, egotistical biggot. And Orlando has to go off on his chicken-shit ass and be a pansy. GRRRRRRRRR. I hate him. But I love him. But I hate him. But mostly, I love him.
Anyway, I went to see Troy with Lyla and John (Caitlin was supposed to come, but I'm not really sure what happened to that one...) and wow, it was amazing. Well, actually, the movie was really slow at parts, and you have to know quite a bit of Greek mythology to fully appreciate it, but it was still good (no POTC, though). There were many, many, many sweaty, sexy, hott men. I liked it. Lyla fucking cried at the end though. What was that?
But hell, he college ID got me in, right? That's all I ask for...
Oh, and, just to top it off a bit, on the way out, I happened to nearly run over Mike Fernbach. Yeah, way to be...I kinda dodged and kept walking, but he yelled after me, "Hey, Stef, aren't you a little young for this movie?" I was like "meh-by" and just kinda ran out, dragging depressed Lyla behind me. Now its gonna get back to Arla, then to my mom. Mind you, my parents were like "Go see Troy", but I am pretty sure they were not fully aware of it's rated-R-ness...
Oh, and new movie, Ocean's Twelve is coming out. I'm looking forward to it.
So, I have decided. Med with double letters in their name are quite attractive: Brad Pitt, Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp. There's more, but we'll play a shoutout game- see how many more you can think of. Or if you can get any to disprove this hypothesis, that's cool, too....

Anyway, its my bedtime.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOW. There is much to say. And I pretty lazy. Here goes:

Saturday: went to Urban Outfitters with CAitlin. Well, first we stopped at caribou, then at cracker barrel, then on to Urban Outfitters. It was a fun trip, kinda rainy and blaa outside, tho, and I was a bit tired from Friday night's festivities. But I bought a lovely pair of pants, for sixty dollars, and thats all, cuz I was so cheap I nearly didn't even get those. Then we came home, but I slept most of the trip back, and all I remember (though vaugely) was that we had to stop for gas becasue the tank was empty. I kept thinkin' it would have been kinda cool to get abandoned, only Caitlin had to go to work.
Then I got home, and showered and such, and was bound by the painful laws of my parents to eat with them, so I was kinda late by the time I picked up Elizabeth and got to Robs house (where coney waited for us)
Anyway, I'm not sure why we even went to Robs house, because then we went to Steve's. Then Steve's was kinda boring, cuz all that was happening was Halo, and so Danny, being the oddly commanding and controlling person he is (man, how does he get everyone to listen to him?) made us go to Matt's, also known as Branch's, since I will probably refer to it both ways, and that may be confusing. Anyway...
So, yeah, at Matts house we chilled for a while, watching music videos and stuff, and it was kinda stupid, until we went outside and the guys thought it would be fun to jump into the pool and pie people and such, and the girls kinda wanted to go in, only we have to be all cvlothes freakish (oh, come on! those pants were 60 bucks- you would be, too) so we stole Matt's little sister's shorts and bathing suit tops and then we went outside and like 10 of us were all in the hot tub, at the same time. Tight squeeze. Anyway, yeah then we had to run out, literally, cuz we though Matt's parents were home, only I guess they weren't really (Robs just stupid) but we weren't supposed to be there anyway, so we left and went back to Steve's house.
Then Steve's was back to Halo, and we didn't stay very long, though we did figure out that Rob's keyless entry starts Matt's car. Don't ask, I have no idea either. Then we left, after some prying of Elizabeth off Rob, and went home. Well, to Elizabeth's.
Sunday:
Woke up at Elizabeth's, after having this really wierd dream about...Johnny Depp...and creepy tarot lady...shrinking babies...alright, let's just say it was wierd to the extreme powers of x. Then we went to Cedar Point (after a stop at caribou- hell, I needed my coffee!) and met Britnay. It was stupid, though, cuz we had to wait nearly an hour and a half to get our passes. But anyway, we were REALLY REALLY LAZY cuz we were both so tired from our weekend (actually, the cone thing on friday seemed to take it out of us), and so we didn't do too many rides. What we did do was super glue quarters to trach recepticles (we figured out they dont stick on cement for long- you can yank them off it you try) and watched all the amazing things people will do for a quarter. Let's just say- WOW.
Then I came home and did history. Blech.
Monday:
Um, so I went to clean out my car this morning, and can anyone say massive orgy? Yeah, there was Kevin's empty cream soda bottle on the ground, which resembled a beer bottle, then the seats were screwed up, the CDs were scattered all over the place because I had knocked them out of their little pile, and Shamis left his coat...thing...in the car and all in all it looked like somebody had a little too much fun in the car, if ya knoe what I mean.
Only, that someone obviously wasn't me.
Anyway, school was long and dull today, or maybe I wa just too tired to look for the interest in it. Who knows. What I do know is that now, I'm off to learn Algebra. ::gag::
