The Topic of Great Randomness

[Dragon Writer]

Now if only it wasn't for that whole four weeks part...oh well...oh, i had the weirdest lunch of all today...it was my first lunch, and this girl i had met ONCE came up to me...kinda cute, aferican american...(not that it matters, but i just feel like detail should be included) i'm not even 100% certain what her name was...anyways, she comes up to me...she stares at me for a few minutes...grabs me by the arm...and turns to face her friends...then tells them i'm her new boyfriend...then she asked me what my name was again. THen she Brought a couple more friends over who were girls, introduced me to them, apparently asked me if i thought they were hot...I coudln't understand what they were saying, so i didn't answer, and she went on about how great a boyfriend i was being not answering...and the entire lunch, she went on calling me her boyfriend...she even snatched me away from people i was trying to make friends with...had to appologize to them afterwards...i enjoy being the kid in school everyone likes, and i don't need her giving me enemies...personally i thought the entire thing was hilarious...though i'm hoping she was joking, cause she isn't really my kind of girlfriend...Don't ask me why i think that, id idn't really talk to her much, i just don't really feel like there's anything there...anyways, my rants done, and i'm sorry for the length, but i just thought i needed to write this...

I was a total flirt at QR practice today. My friend D's gonna kill me come tomorrow... Anyway, that senior I danced with? Well, he's in QR. Well, I come into the Mr R's room with a light step...okay, so I'm skipping as usual. I see bunches of freshmen buddies and other people and I hug pretty much everybody in sight. After I stopped hugging people, I was like, "Wow, I'm in a huggy mood." Then the senior was like, "Where's my hug?" And so I asked him if he wanted one, kinda sarcastic. He said sure, so I hugged him. This made my freshman "lover" say, "Are you cheating on me??" And I had to say that yes, I was. There was a lot more stuff where I get mad at my "lover" for not coming with me to the band room...but I don't remember the details, so I'll go into other stuff. We were about to start playing, so I shout, "Where do I sit? Somebody tell me." So, the senior tells me to be on his team, so I go sit by him, even though some of my other friends told me to be with them. I promptly take the senior's hat and put it on. He said it looked good on me, and he almost sounded serious. Almost. Anyway, I was obscenely flirty, and D shook her head at me when I put on his hat. That "goodness-you're-such-a-flirt-when-will-you-grow-up" shake of the head with a half smile, half laugh with it.

By the way, it felt really good to flirt. Probably because my ex was right across from me flirting with two other girls, so...yeah. I wasn't trying to get back at him; it was more of a reassuring myself that I'm over him and can move on.

Well, as I have a voice lesson in twenty minutes and a truckload of homework, I really must be going. So, off with my flirty self, lol.

[nitafan211]

Well heya all!! Please dont kill me for not being on for so long! I suppose I need to introduce myself all over again since this whole page is (pretty much) filled with people I dont know! My name is Nita and I havent been on in ages I know but I have came by to say hello to everyone! I hope yall are all doing great.. As for me I'm not doing too bad myself. Well I will be back sometime within the next year I hope ttyl all!

*POOF*

[Dragon Writer]

Well, nita, working under the impression that i don't know you...nice to meet you! *grumbles about the girl STILL calling me her boyfriend and if she's still doing it tomarrow i'm going to assume she really isn't joking and tell her i'm not..."
Ok, enough grumbling...Um...I suddenly forget everything i was going to say...oh, now i remember...BOOKS RULE!
oh, and sean...EAT! i know we don't always get along, but i need someone to butt heads with other then the always hated gigo and the ever non present lisa...makes things more intersting. :P not that i try to annoy you guys, mind you...it just kind of happens.
this comment has been said due to the fact thaT in history class, i found myself spewing out historical facts that i never actually learned in history...cool huh? ok...ranting done...sorry...

[Angel_Star]

People you don't know?? Am I an unknown? I think I just might cry, Nita.

My freshman lover came up behind me at my locker and messed with my hair. Really freaked me out. He's such a silly little freshman, lol. He was at play tryouts with me. I doubt I'll get a part, but I'm sure he will. There were too little guys who tried out for him to not get a part. We'll know by Friday, though. But anyway, I was at school until six, and if you want to hear more about that adventure, I wrote some stuff about it on my blog. There's a link in my siggy...*points*

I kept almost falling asleep in every class, and in Bible I thought I would die. We had to listen to our teacher's father talk in a recording. He wasn't monotone or anything, and the subject wasn't particularly boring, but I was soo tired, and it was seventh period.

[Dragon Writer]

oK, i must once more go into the mystical realm of rant for this topic...readers beware!
I finally mangaged to avoid my self appointed girlfriend for an entire lunch, only to meet her friend on the bus ride home, who tells me she actually got UPSET, when she couldn't find me...*grumbles* ok, now that i've finished that part of the rant, i shall rant about a few other things...Just for the sake of ranting. I mean, you can't stop a good rant, and i've been needing to yell about this for a while...
GAA! I've got SO much work...I've got to detail dragon game world even more, though i probably know more about it then MINE, at this point...Bug people to post, and desperately HOPE that they'll listen so i can actually have a good nights sleep without my imagination taking its toal on my head, and so that i'm not forced to rp in chat in a desperate attempt to vent some of it...usually i'd write, but my entire mood was SHATTERED, when chat collectively shot down everything i wrote...I've got to struggle to keep mbfs forum from dying, find mbf and convince him to come back to his site while he's here, or at LEAST appoint an admin in his abbsence, because i'm the only starff there at the moment and i'm not even a mod for all the forums...I've got to keep up in the post war in the chat forum, where i'm an dadmin, keep up in posts on fantasy books, where i'm an admin, check on lisa's forum, keep olivia from getting board on slash's, gawk at the absence of postage on tia's forum,. post on this forum,. somehow manage to still keep up with avarious friends at school, and maintain my utterly untrue reputation for reading a book idea...i COULD just read that much, but i have no time...plus i'm easily distracted...after all this, i come to chat to relax, only to have someoen like gigo decide it's fun to annoy me and do everything his power to not only ruin any attempt of mine to relax, but make me look like a jerk when i react to him...And yet despite all my rants, and complaints, i actually enjoy all of this, strangely enough...In fact, i wouldn't give it up for the world...that and the fact i'm constantly taking on more and more, and actually keeping up with it all, proves i'm utterly and totally isane...COOL! (note, enjoying things does not spread to the antics of gigo)

oh, and fear my sites!

Hi, Angel_Star!

Shiny dragon forum, young reader. *bookmarks* I've been trying to get a rpg up with an invisionfree board, too. It's so different than AG.

I joined a <STRIKE>fencing team</STRIKE> couple of people who get together and wave swords! It ranks among the most random things I've done this year. They were meeting in the courtyard at school, and had their equipment all over the lawn. Being new, I didn't even know they existed.
Me: (wandering over, a complete newbie) Wow, is that a sword?!
Girl: Sort of. This is the fencing club. Do you fence?
Me: No, but I think I'm about to start...
*_*

Sean: I feel your pain. I just added up all the papers I'm expected to write for my (combined, thankfully) AP classes before mid-October. It turned out to be about ninety pages... Plus a story competition I'm entering, but I can't complain about that as it's giving me an excuse to write. Not like I need one, but hey. >:]

[Dee]

Well. It is 12:14 AM and I just had something really weird happen.

I'm upstairs, getting ready for bed- PJs, teeth brushing, yoga, little meditation. I'm almost ready to get in bed, tail end of meditating, when I hear this loud CRACK that sounds like a gunshot. Me being the idiot innocent bystander that I am, what do I do? Duh! I open the window and stick my head out for a look. Possibly not the smartest thing to do when you hear a gunshot, but certainly the most interesting view.

I'll give you a bit of layout of my house and street so you get the general idea. My house is just about ten feet away, from my neighbor's house, their house is just to the left of ours. My room is the farthest left on our upper story, so the closest to my neighbor's house, and my window directly faces their house. There are two fairly young red maple trees that are right about in between our two houses and the street.

So, of course, my luck being what it is. Whatever was happening was totally blocked by those trees. I can't see the street at all.

What I can see, however, are the two police cars and two civilian cars circled around an area in the hedge of our neighbors across the street. I can also see the feet of several police wo/men clustered around the hedge/fence. I can also see my neighbors in their pajamas standing on the sidewalk, watching.

Over a period of about five minutes, the crack/shot thing happens twice more. Nobody down on the ground appears particularly scared or surprised or worried. My neighbors look a bit nervous, but really it doesn't look like anything totally crazy and freaky.

They all stand around for a couple minutes, and not much appears to happen, though I can't tell because I'm too far away to hear anything but the shots and a few vague occasional words that I can't make out. After standing around, one policeman gets in his car and drives off really slowly. Another policewoman talks to some of the people who appear to belong to the civilian cars, and then she drives off. The last policeman talks to my neighbors and they go inside and he gets in his car and drives off as slowly as the first guy. The first civilian car drives off in the other direction, and the last civilian car is still sitting there as I'm typing this.

Anyways, that's why I'm still awake when I said I was going to bed an hour ago. Not the most incredible of stories, but it's a bit odd when you hear gunshots at 11:45 outside your window, don't you think?

I suppose I'll type an update when I talk to my neighbors in the morning and find out what that was.

Goodnight.

[Gibby Gibson]

I am sick *sneezzzzzz* I got a stupid cold!!!!! DARN IT!

Mel said the following:
But this kid...breaks new records. He's dumb, he's violent, he's rude, and really, really lazy. He is the only person in the whole 8th grade whom I cannot work with. At all. Except maybe one or two choice others. *shudders*

Also by Mel,
You know what I found out? Shampooing you hair twice makes it ultra shiny and clean. It's cool. Unlike conditioner, it does not make your hair greasy.

*smile* I found that out myself as well, some time ago. Ever since then I would wash my hair twice, to make it shiny, and to just have a claim to stay in the warm water longer. I like warm water.

Also by Angel_Star:
Oh, look, I'm alive, too! I haven't been here in forever. Terribly sorry...school takes over my life. Oh dear, I really wish that I could fill you in on the wonders of my life, but I just simply don't have the time.

Yet, another by Angel_Star:
So, yeah. I danced with a Senior and a Freshman. None of my guy friends asked me to dance. I mean, the ones in my grade. They asked pretty much all of my friends, but not me. *shrug* I don't really mind; I just thought it was kind of odd.

Under the Sea

calliope made the statement:
Hehe, the last time we tried to go hiking we hiked twice the distance before we even found the right trail.

And thus, the reasons for me being an indoor person. *wonders off to find book to read*

Sean L. frustratingly said:
Stupid skirts. *will not explain that comment*

Why is it that I found that quite funny, though I have no idea on the circumstances for such a statement to be made?

Sean L. also said:
I swear, my roomate thinks I'm crackers.

Dee said:
That's better than I did. I was asked to dance by... one guy. And he was my friend Sam, who is gay. Very gay. Loudly gay. And really crazy and funny.

The Three Little Pigs and One Bad Wolf

[Gryphon]

Ghhshfkk. Alright. If I were to buy any CD by The Strokes, which one would you recommend? 'Cuz I've been wanting to pick up one of theirs, but there are too many to decide >< . Also on my music wishlist is Frankenstein GWSSS (the title is soo looong!) by MSI, the Killer's new CD, Papa Roach's new CD, and White Pony by Deftones. I wish good music artists were granted the status of gods, had no need for money, and would just make CDs and hand them out free for fanatics like me. Life would be bliss.

Oooohh yeahhh, I think I'm gonna go to Ren Fair this weekend. I have no idea what our plans are gonna be like or who is gonna come with us. Maybe it'll just be a me and mom thing. Urgghh... maybe the me and mom won't be as bad as it sounds. But anyway, ren fair = <3. I went to my first last year and loved it; it was so much fun .

I love my homecoming dress. <3 It makes me want to put it on at 12:00 midnight and run around in the dark. Emhhmmm... so let me try to describe it. It's that kind where it doesn't have real straps, just that thing that starts in the front, goes behind the neck, and ends in the front again. (Called a halter top? I think I sound pretty clueless already) Navy blue with a design of light blue, sparkly outlines of flowers, and it ends above the knees. It's dark, so I could even play flashlight tag in it. Homecoming is in a couple of weeks for me, so I haven't planned far enough ahead to know who I'm going with. Or even if I'll go to the homecoming at my school or my boyfriend's school or both.

Been watching the Daily Show lately. That thing is hilarious. <3 And also Grey's Anatomy, whose second show of the season is tonight. Normally I don't watch tv at all, but it seems to make life less stressful.

Oh dearie Sean, whatever is the matter with skirts? :P Doncha know you look beau? Otherwise, I've gotta agree with your roommate. You are insane.

Nitaaaaa *huggles* Nice to see you post again + Don't make Angel Brains cry :P

Ahhh deee, I want to know what happens..!

Hiking. Guys, I love running around and being actice and doing crazy stuff, but if there's any one thing that I can't stand doing is hiking. ><

Last Sunday was so awesomely awesome, you just wouldn't believe how awesome it was. I mean, it was awesome, how awesomely awesome it was. Anyway, getting to the point. There are these boys on my little brothers baseball team, and, well, they were on his baseball team last year, cause the age range was 10, 11, 12. So, these two boys (my age) are twins, and they've recently switched to my church, but they don't go to my school. I was thinking about how much I missed them, and how much I wanted to see them, cause they're awesomely nice. I mean, it's just awesome. Anyway, they weren't at the first Sunday School class two weeks ago, but they were there last week, and it was just awesome. After the SS class, they were talking to these little three year olds, and they were being so sweet, it was just extremely awesomely awesome. I don't know if I've mentioned this, but lots of guys my age that I know are... Well, let's just say they aren't so awesome. They aren't as nice, that's for sure. And these guys were being so nice, it was just awesome. They were all polite, and nice, and sweet, and awesome. They looked genuinely happy, and interested in what the three year olds had to say, not the fake intrest that many people have. It was soooo awesome! *twirls giddily*

YR- ferrets?! They're related to martens! AND BADGERS!! Innit awesome?! And kittens?! You are one lucky duck. My dad hates cats. It's an unreasonable hate. Why, I asked him, and he said, "I just do" What kind of a reason is that?! Anyway, I'm uber-happy for you. And that thing about your "girlfriend"? Weird...

[Angel_Star]

Gryphmiphy, you amuse me. Your description of your dress was...incredible, lol. I heart you lots and lots! Though I am NOT Angel Brains. *mutters darkly*

I loved my homecoming dress. It was v-necked halter top thingum (my description is just as good as Gryph's, lol), and it was black with bands of white roses/flower things. It was a swishy dress, you know, the kind that's really fun to twirl in? But it was kind of...*whispers*immodest*/whispers*. *snort* I saw some dresses that were ten times worse than mine. It's practically impossible to find a "modest" dress that looks okay on me. As it was, we had to get part of the top sewn up. So...yeah.

Anyway, D finally told me that no, she doesn't like to see me flirt with that senior. Gracious, if she had told me earlier, I wouldn't have done it. But noooo, she has to clam up about things. That child...she amuses me. I just wish she'd tell me stuff more often.

Gibby, I'd love to dance! *twirls* Whenever I see your name, I'm reminded of my Chem teacher. She's Mrs. Gibson. My friend E calls her Gibby.

I really should get to bed. I came home and rested in my bed for a moment after school, and before I knew it, it was nearly six and I had wasted a good hour and a half of my day.

Edit: How amusing. I'm on this page four times...

[Dee]

Well, I sort of found out what the shots were last night. This morning, when I could actually see, I noticed a dead deer on the side of the road where the people were clustered and where the shots came from. Of course, I still have no idea at all why somebody would need to shoot a deer once every three minutes for 10 minutes. So I'll ask my neighbor sometime when we're both outside gardening at the same time or something.

Oh, wait, I can't. It's fall. My garden's half dead. *breaks out into hysterical sobs*
All that beautiful basil...

Oh well. Fall always seems very crisp and clean to me. Does anybody else get that feeling? Like you can go outside for a walk when you haven't showered for two days and you're still in your pajama top and your hair is in its ponytail from yesterday, yet you can come back inside feeling spotless and like you've just been drycleaned? I get that feeling from autumn.

I love my homecoming dress. It wasn't new, but it felt like it was since I hadn't seen it since 8th grade. I bought it then to wear to our 8th grade dance but never used it, and I found it the day before homecoming in the bottom of one of mom's boxes of fabric for sewing. (no idea why it was there.) I was all set to wear my blue strapless dress that mom hates me to wear because it is very immodest ( Angel_Star) but then I found my old one and had to wear that. It's really floaty and airy, with a bunch of thin layers and a jagged hem and it was light yellow and green and blue all splotchy like watercolors. And it matched my green hair. Kinsey made me stick a flower in my hair: we have flowers from being fairies at ren fair and she said the blue one matched so she stuck it in there. Silly, but cute in an odd way I suppose.

Kinsey and I went to our local poetry slam tonight. My first slam ever! It was wonderful. There were a few poems that were mildly annoying and teenager-esque, and a few INCREDIBLY WONDERFUL ones, but there weren't any really bad ones. There was this one guy, though... Ayanvidula or something? Weird pseuodonym like that, can't remember how to spell it. Amazing. I want to worship at his feet and start a fan club, after hearing only three of his poems. Absolutely incredible.

Of course, my friends N and S have already decided they're making t-shirts for his fan club. N and S are slam regulars, and they're both in love with him. Every time he comes anywhere near, they sigh dreamily and/or burst into fits of giggles. It is so cute. After I heard his poems, I understood why they did that.

Oh, and S won third place. Yay S!

I didn't do any poems, mostly because I'm atrocious at poetry. Hideously awful. But I think somebody's trying to tell me something. I never usually like poetry at all and only ever read it for English class when I have to. And in the past two days, I must have read thirty poems written by several of my friends who showed them to me (actual good poetry, not the awful mopey teenage "i h8 mi life i cut miself" stuff. I mean, there's nothing wrong with depressing or sad poetry, you just have to know how to do it right.) I've attended a poetry slam, and I've been reading poetry by actual famous poets and stuff. It's just unlike me, I usually hate poetry. Of course, I'm not saying I'm going to get inspired and start writing tons of magnificent poetry. I just think it's interesting that I suddenly started reading poetry and didn't even notice until I was halfway through this post.

And Gibby, I would love to dance! *twirls with Angel_Star and Gibby* Yay!

And I think I may have posted more in TOGR in the past week than I ever have since joining, which was February. Odd. I suppose I just need to get out more.

[Mel]

*sighs*

Odd, that was both of sadness and of relief and contentment...Weiiird

Firstly: I'm home sick I felt really nausious (sp?) during Church. I feel a little better now that I'm in the comfort of my own home. I'd rather be sick at home than at school anyday. Even though I'm missing making rock candy...:/

But anyway. I just heard about a schooting near Columbine. Horrible. I had just read the book "She Said Yes" by Cassie Bernall's mother, Misty, and seriously, I think it seriously affected my life. Any Christian, or really Jew or anyone who believes in God, you should read this book. It seriously...seriously changed my life

Ok, on dresses: I don't have homecomings until next year, siiiigh, haha. However, there is this really cool dress that my mom picked up that I LOVE!!
The deal is, I could never where it anywhere other than a Ball or something ultra-ultra fancy, or for Halloween. But I love it. According to those I had to model it for (My mom and two other ladies she's going into a sewing business with), It fits me perfectly. Except for a certain area that has yet to grow...*ahem* XD
But anyway, it's a beautiful, beautiful dress. It's like black with these little glittery roses and vines. Then in the front is this white material with fake black buttons (We think it was added so someone like size 5-6 could fit into it, instead of the origional like 2), and it has this black bow over the top. It's really heavy and handmade. It is like a ball gown, definately. Then the sleeves are like that kind that are like really thick, but they half go over your shoulders. I wish I had a digital camera, so I could show you guys this amazing dress! And I don't even like dresses!!!

*sways to Patsy Cline* wonderful voice, she had. I'm listening to all my country songs. This could take a while, I have 353. Yupp.

It's really sad, my doggie, after getting his teeth cleaned, got a tube put into his throat because he is a small dog, and most small dogs' trachyeas collapse. Then he was choking on it, but got better, a little, but then he got sick and now has Trachyeal Bronchitis. Poor doggie. Then my brother, R, got sick (which he never does), so he's laying on the couch watching Montel or something with Eddie. The three of us...*shakes head*

Well, I think I'll mull around in the chat or something, see if anybody comes in. Then I'lltry to write something for a contest.


Oh, and as for my Ballad Bind: I talked to my teacher ( I had never realised how tall she was until that moment. She's like a foot taller than me! AND PLAYS RUGBY!!!), and while she wouldn't let me switch partners, she did let me work by myself, and I finally finished "The Ballad of Poor Jim, the Skeleton". I can't help it, every time I think of that, I think of "Sim, who ran away from his nurse and was eaten by a lion." Did anybody ever read that poem? Funny stuff. Well, anyway, it's based on a little story my mom told me when I was little about Halloween (I loved it even then). She said, to get me to go to sleep, that if you listened close enough on Halloween night, you could hear the skeletons dancing on the roof. So I often fell asleep to thoughts of happy skeletons dancing, with those push-down straw top hats and canes, like a barbershop thriplet, only dancing. Yupp. So It's like that, except it 's also based on a book called Skullduggery that I read when I was like 9 (even though it's 12+ (Shows you my reading level). It's includes a phrenologist, so I'll put it up on the poems board when I can get the whole thing (I finished the last like 6 stanzas on the spot on the computer).

Well, good day to you all!! :P
