Midnight Thinking Session

Well hi, yes I am up right now...

I'm not really sure why I'm up, I just couldn't fall asleep. Basically I was laying on my bed trying to fall asleep but all I could do was think. But the thing is that I don't know what I was thinking ya know?
It's like one of those moments were there are a bunch of thoughts going through your head but you're not really thinking about it... you're just like drifting and day dreaming..
So I basically just stayed awake, and then I decided to post a stupid, random, unnecessary post about my midnight thinking session.
I'm afraid my mom is going to come into my room and take my computer away... but knowing her she's a really heavy sleeper, so I don't have to worry too much. It would most likely be my sister who would wake up, considering a fly could wake her up... sometimes she really makes me wonder.
Anyway I don't really know what to say.. I guess I can say that stuff is actually normal here, I'm not missing Montana that much anymore, and I have a good group of friend here, and I'm happy. I'm not the shy loner girl I used to be, I'm a new Janie and I'm really happy. I've always wanted to be outgoing, and the thing was that I was always outgoing, but I just thought that if I showed it, I wouldn't be accepted because everyone thought of me as someone else.
I guess this move turned out to be a good thing.

Sickly Feelings and Birthday Wishes

Good evening. Blah blah that was awkwardly formal.

So anyway. I would first like to say Happy Birthday to my sister! She is now 17! haha what an oldie.
So another thing I would like to say is that I do not feel well at all. NOT ONE BIT!
I have a pounding headache, and I'm dizzy and my stomach hurts and etc... long story short, I'm in pain and it's not fun :(
I stayed home from school today which was boring because I sleep all day and now I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight...
My mom says that it might be the flu, but my dad said it's just a fever.
I don't know what it is, I just want to get better!
Anyway on a lighter topic, my friend from back home is flying out here to stay with me for a couple of days. I'm really excited because I mean I don't really know what's going on back home so it'll be nice to catch up.

Rock

So my cousin called me today (she lives in arizona) and she told me she has never been so tired. She went to the grand canyon today. My cousin and I are really close, even though she's only 14, we talk a lot, I haven't seen her in a while.

So anyway she told me what it was like there, and I started thinking about how cool it would be to experience that. I personally have never gone, but after everything she told me, I definitely want to go.
It is one of the wonder of the world after all.
So here's my question...

Has anyone been to any of the wonders of the world?

Mainstream, Problematic

Okay so I have a guilty pleasure and I thought I'd share.

Gossip Girl.
I'm going to be honest, it's an amazing show, I'm usually not one for drama, but I read the books back in 8th grade and I thought why not watch the show when it came out. After the first season I realized that the show is COMPLETELY different from the books, but strangely addicting.
So that's where I discovered that Leighton Meester (Blair) sings, and she's also surprisingly good. Her new song called Your Love's a Drug came out and it probably the only pop song I own. It has a good beat and he voice doesn't sound to over produced so its good.
Now I have a serious situation.
College.
I have no idea what I want to do! I mean I really like art, and history, and books and now I'm starting to freak out because the school guidance counselor told me that I have to start planning what i want to do. I know it's actually late for me to start sending out college applications but, I'm taking a year off because my parents want me to "know the earth" so they're sending me to live with my grandparents who live in Wales and then from there I'll drift over europe for a year.
But going back to college, I want to go to this school called Parson's New School, it's in New York City, and it's a design school. But I also want to go to to NYU or maybe Cooper Union. I don't know I mean I still have time to choose, and I could always change schools if I don't like what I choose, but I mean I like everything...

Addictions, Confusions and Vacations

Heylo. weird way to start a blog post, anyway. I have become obsessed with the game Sally's Spa. I know I know, weird, but my sister got it on her ipod and I've been playing it, and it's addicting! I'm playing it while writing this right now. So how was everyones Saturday?? *cricket cricket*

I'm going to be honest, I'm in a silly mood today, I have a lot of energy, and I don't know why. I should be sleeping... it's late. I guess I'm just so bad ass that I stay up late.... WHAT A JOKE. I'm not bad ass at all!
I wonder what gave me so much energy..? Maybe it was the 3 packs of smarties that I ate... or maybe the fact that I went for a run this morning? I don't know! Rawr.
I want to go to Geneva! That would be so cool, I wonder if I can convince one of my parents to let me go for the summer, but wait would that mean that it would be winter there? No... Switzerland and the US are located in the same hemisphere, what am I thinking?!
Whatever gave me so much energy obviously wiped out some brain cells, cause I'm not really thinking straight.
I realized that I haven't posted anything more about the books I'm reading... ya well I don't think that's going to work out, I guess I'll just mention whether or not I liked the book or not.
How many times have I changed the topic in this post? I'm starting to confuse myself. Thats to bad. I hope anyone who reads this doesn't get confused!

BYE!

Enchanting


Today was a good day. The weather was great, the teachers did nothing, I didn't run into the leather jacket wearing jerk, and I got my new cellphone.

When I got home, I arrived to see my mom sitting on the couch with an eager smile, I was a little scared at the beginning, its awkward seeing my mom with a toothy smile. Then she pulled out a blackberry bold and handed it over to me.
Now I'm not one for the hot new technology, I was perfectly fine with my razor, but I have to say, this phone is the sickest thing I own! it's awesome, and a lot of my friends from back home own one, so it works out.
I also went to the park today, it's like one of those perfect spring days, and I just loved it.
Nothing new has been really happening, same classes, same school, same people. I guess things have officially settled down. Which is good, I've been waiting for that.
Oh by the way, when I went to the park today, I took Poppy. She found an adorable (but not as adorable as Poppy) dalmatian puppy. They started playing and chasing eachother around. It was absolutely adorable! haha I wish I took my camera.

A new day, a new interest

So today my gov. teacher said that we would be having debates next week, in front of the class.. alone. Now normally it wouldn't be a big deal if I was still in Montana. But here, since I don't know anyone I really am freaking out! I get stage fright, and I stutter, and I turn red as a tomato! I SO don't want to do this! Also I have to choose an controversial topic to debate about, and I have absolutely now idea what I'm going to do it on. I think my gov teacher is out to get me.. who would assign a project like this! Maybe I'll pretend to be sick that day... no I'm a terrible liar. Oh lord please help me.. I'm going to make a complete fool of myself!


Putting that little spasm aside, I wanted to talk about something that I have recently become interested in.

Photography.

I know I know, everyone seems to be obsessed with it recently, but I've actually done some research about it, like the different types of cameras, en effect and all that stuff, and I'm actually really interested. I've tried taking some pictures but, I'm just a beginner, so I'm not pushing it.

If anyones interested in photography leave a comment or something, that is if you read this. Like I said in my first post, this blog is more for me to express my feelings than to have a million readers.

Well Bye,

Janie
