"Sorry, I'm stuck in my ugly bubble."
Everyone is talking about this new (new? He’s been here a month now.) Josh kid and I figured I might as well keep up with the blogging trend and put my two cents worth in. At first I thought he was pretty nice.. But then in English one day, while we were in the library, he started kvetching to me about how he hates the school, all the kids are stupid, and how he’d rather go back to Hicksville, Louisiana or wherever he’s from or transfer to Brophy. How do you know that Brophy is better? Because its all boys, Josh and you pay for it? You like that Josh? An ALL BOYS school? Huh? You like that? I bet you do.
Fucker.
Random Listing: People that pissed me off today-
1. Mrs. Rosenberg-
Everyday after announcements when they say “Have a great day, North Canyon!” Mrs. Rosenberg follows up with “Have a niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice dayyyayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.” I can’t tell you how much this bothered me this morning as I made this list in my notebook. It’s just the way she says it.. I think I would like her more if
A. She dressed better (maybe more like a girl and less like an elf) first off and
B. I had an A in the class.
2. Daniel Thai-
I don’t really think I need to explain anything about this one.
Daniel Thai Fact of the day:
He lines his pencils up on his desk from longest to shortest within the first three minutes of every class.
3. Oprah aka The Devil-
Fat or thin, Oprah? Fat or thin? Pick one and stick to it. Jesus.
This reminds me, soon I’ll have a graphic page up where you will be able to see the graphics Matt and I made of all of the people we think are evil.
Oprah of course is one of them.
Don’t even get me started on Dr. Phil.. OMG…
Today was a pretty good day.
I went home early.
Who doesn’t love going home early?
School was pretty much… school.
Its still standing.
I still have to go back tomorrow.
My mom picked me up around 12:15 pm and we went out to lunch.
We’re just went to Baja something or another and we’re sitting there and out of the corner of my eye I see the most horrifying sight-
My old sixth grade teacher.
Now, you don’t know this lady.
Mrs. Liston was possibly the worst teacher ever.
She gets all shrieky and huggy when she sees former students (I crossed paths with her once before a few years ago at my sister’s school’s open house) and I really didn’t want that in a public setting.
So I quietly excused myself to go to the bathroom and I hid out there until I thought Liston would be gone.
She was and all was good after that, but for about three minutes, I was scared.
Fin.
Quote of the day:
"The point is, she tries, and that doesn't stop me from being mean to her... but I feel bad.. I do.."
-- Skylar talking about Katie Davids who tries too hard to be someone's friend.
"Would you keep them in a box?"
Sorry, I meant to post last night but my aunt came over so I had to help her with the computer.. oh well..
Found out Sunday night that if you go to yahoo.com and search for “cheetah print toasters” my blog comes up. Its number 3 on the list of results. This excites me seeing how a ton of people will probably be looking for Cheetah print toasters.. At least one person did though I guess since it showed up on my stat page.. But now; if you look up “Stefi” my blog is number 12 on the search! 12! That’s the first page still! However looking for “Stephanie” and “Self Improvement is Masturbation” yields nothing related to me. Or it might have, but with about 3,280,000 matches for each search, I didn’t bother to look. It seemed like it was just a lot of fight club sites, stuff on Stephanie Rogers (some songwriter) and some ugly naked pictures of an ugly naked woman and her ugly naked husband on a naked vacation with other equally as ugly naked people. Apparently “Anne Frank Pictures” brings me up too.
While we’re talking about Jews..
Rosenberg wasn’t at school yesterday, so I figured I was clear and free to wear my FCUK Fashion shirt (I can’t wear it around Rosie because she thinks I’m “sending out a message” She makes a huge deal out of it and says things like “Does your mother know you’re wearing that shirt?” And yea, my mom does know I wear that shirt. In fact, my mom bought it for me. Rosie didn’t care though and told me not to wear it again.). Anywho, I walk into English and Sandberg looks at me and goes “I thought you weren’t supposed to wear that shirt to school anymore?”
I guess Rosie sent out a memo or something… My G0d.
English was cool yesterday. We started our Shakespeare unit. We’re learning about “The Sco’ish Play” (Can’t say the big M word due to superstion.) Sandberg was so excited about it. I wish she was that excited about everything. It would have been cool to learn our grammar unit like that.
“And guess what? This is a noun! I love nouns. Don’t you guys love nouns? Who wants a packet on nouns? Yea!”
Everything else was pretty boring..
I was supposed to go home at 11 am Monday. My mom had some sort of wacky take your kid out of school day arranged, but my dad came home early from work foiling whatever antics my mother had planned. So she said she’d pick me up early another day.
Actually, she said she’d let me stay home today, but I declined. I had a Chem “quest” and a world history test to take. I figured I might as well get them done. I don’t really know why she’s been wanting me to stay home.. I guess I’ll find out sooner or later.
Today was more like… Ehh as opposed to the excitement yesterday.
That’s the only way I can convey it.
The most interesting moment was a tie between having an actual conversation with Skylar and Hunter undoing my bra in drama. Twice.
Don't ask.
Its not as kinky as you think.
During lunch, my table, the cool people that we are, somehow got on the topic of people who hate us. We started making lists of people who we thought disliked us. I mentioned Rachel Cruz and everyone at the table was like “She didn’t hate you.”
She didn’t hate me?
I went like, two years thinking she hated me.
Look at me…. Almost in tears…. Gee golly…
Ok, not really. I just thought it was weird that despite the way she acted towards me, she never hated me. Strange..
While at home, I was on the computer while my sister watched her usual after school rubbish and I heard a commercial for Kidz Bop 3.
Yes, kids with a z. I guess the z makes it cooler in the land of suburban parents who buy this crap.
Its bad enough they had two before this.. but now there’s a third one?
What is the point? I honestly don’t understand it… but it intrigued me. I just had to hear it for myself.
I mean, it was 6 year olds singing blink 182 and jumping around on the commercial.
What self-respecting parent lets their 6-year-old listen to Blink?
And its not just Blink that they have.
Oh no.
They also have artists like No Doubt, Shakira, Sheryl Crow, Smash Mouth.. other people I can’t think of.. oh, Britney Spears.. Nsync.. Backstreet Boys.
So I downloaded some of their songs from Kazaa, the downloading program I never pronounce correctly.
I wanted to see why this Kidz bop was so good and why not one, not two, but three entire CDs were made.
I don’t get it.
It is probably the stupidest thing ever.
Its the same exact song.
The words are not changed, not even in the blink song.
It was like listening to karaoke done with kindergartners… or like, Thomas doing karaoke.. (as Andrew put it)
It was so dumb.
You thought that DVD players in SUVs were stupid?
No. This is so much worse.
This is like… The Wiggles on Acid.
I’ll keep the songs. I’ll make myself a CD and anytime I feel like really annoying myself and Katie Davids isn’t around, I’ll put Kidz Bop on.
Quote of the day (Monday):
Andrew: “Remember when I went to the bathroom?”
Stefi: “Umm.. You go to the bathroom a lot.. so, the one between 3rd and 4th or..”
Andrew: “Recently, like, just now.”
Stefi: “Oh, yea.. why?”
Andrew: “Daniel Thai pees.”
-- Andrew proving my “Daniel Thai is a machine who doesn’t pee” theory wrong
Quote of the day (Tuesday):
“You do realize you’re white right? I’d like to take this time to quietly remind you.”
-- Me harassing Jenna when she was talking about hanging out with Dimple, Meha, and Sarika.
"I could buy that outfit for 5 dollars at Target..."
Happy Friday.
Today was no big whoop really.
The usual Friday..
Did the whole school thing, came home, napped, went out and aboot.
School was ridiculously boring today.
I decided a real person could never actually be Daniel Thai’s friend.
You know he has a brother named Josh?
Yea, its true.
We had the pizza party for the speech winners though. That was fun.
Then Rachel Cruz showed up and ruined the whole thing.
It’s been three days and she was coming to visit already?
Andrew was there, taking Ben G(r)ay’s place at the luncheon since he was absent. This confused Sandberg to no end… and may have also really annoyed her in the process.
“Andrew?” She questioned him sitting down at one of the desks.
“Yea?”
“Andrew…. What are you doing here? Did you win?”
Then we tramped back to the library where my fellow minions were mad at me for going to the pizza party they knew about… So Omaya made a lame joke and Lindsey pretended not to see us.. it was a very bad attempt at trying to be mad at us. Amanda was over it in 20 minutes anyway.
And Lindsey… well, Lindsey could never actually be mad at me…
In Spanish I was talking to this punk kid who was all surprised to learn I actually listened to things other than Nsync. I’m like an onion people. I have many layers..
Mr. Bush told us today in drama that if he closes his office door he can hear every single word that’s said in the black box (the drama room) even if its whispered because of the venting system. Then he turned to this kid Chris and said “You might want to remember this for future reference.” I’ll have to ask Chris on Monday what he said.
I did my scene with Hunter.
Hunter had three lines.
Ok, well, technically, six, but three of them were the same.
His lines were basically “I know..” “Maybe..” and “Well, I might not leave at all for a while.”
I knew his lines.
Hunter did not.
I was good though because while he was going “Oh shit!” and banging his hand on the table for forgetting a line, I stayed in character and Mr. Bush praised that. I ignored Hunter’s Hunterness and kept in my “Wilma” character.
After school I convinced Andrew he didn’t actually want to go to Mr. NC by giving him an example of the sophomores screaming “GO ROBERT! WOOO WE LOVE YOU!” I knew he’d win… He’s so … Kennedy-ish isn’t he?
We went to Desert Ridge instead and saw Chicago (yes…. Again… but its ok because I like the film..) because Andrew hadn’t seen it and then we hid out in Barnes and Noble looking for biographies to use for the Chem A project. We got sidetracked though and ended up just goofing off.
My mom picked me up around 10:45 pm and then we went to Hollywood video and rented About a Boy. There was nobody in the place at this hour and my mom, as usual decided she just had to make conversation with the cute check out guy.
“What are you doing working so late?” She asked the boy.
“Money!” He answered and then continued with his life story, “I’m actually working two jobs right now. I’m also a karate instructor.”
“Oo really?” My mom was in full interest mode. “Show us a move.”
“Hah. Now?” The guy was suddenly self-conscience.
“I’m waiting…” My mom said.
“Well, I’m kinda stiff…” He stretched a little and then started doing all of these kicking chopping jumping things. I was impressed.
“Very good!” My mother commended.
“Yea, that was good.” I said so that I didn’t look like I was either too shy to talk or too bitchy to compliment.
“Ah… Thanks.. You guys should come in every night.” He said, “I’d give you a show.”
My mom giggled furiously.
“Come on, Roxie (My new name. Upgraded from Heather Anne).” My mom called me.
“Bye.” I waved to hot video rental dude.
“Night!” he waved back.
And as soon as she gets done checking her e-mail we’re going to watch the movie we rented. I don’t even know if we can watch it now actually since she’s been online 30 minutes so far and if we start the movie now (midnight) it won’t be done until about 2 AM and I have to get up early tomorrow for another VTL meeting.
And this one is another all day affair..
Ah… it’ll be ok though. I just hate getting up early on a Saturday..
Talk to you guys later.
Have a good weekend.
Quote of the day:
Jen: “You know, every time you find a penny face up and you read the words “In G0d we trust” it means an angel came down from heaven to remind you that G0d is all around.”
Stefi: “Did you learn this in youth group?”
Jen: “::Pauses:: Yes… actually.”
-- Jen to me after I found a penny laying in the street at school.
"Remember Fat Bob?"
I know its been a few days... but I've been busy. I have. I was busy. Really. I was.
I promise to keep up with the posting now.
I'll try to anyway..
So where did I leave off?
Sunday, ok, well Monday I went over to my uncle’s house to see the new baby.
Mateo is adorable and looks nothing like his brother. Its weird.
White Jew boy with a Hispanic name.
He won’t get teased that much when he’s older..
Tuesday was school..
Wednesday, also, was a school day..
School really gets in the way of things.
Nothing interesting happened on either of these days. Daniel Thai may or may not have said something funny. I was swamped with homework. I think everyone feels my pain in the English department… and last night I had to learn 3 scenes for drama. Actually 4, but I didn’t know what the fourth scene was so I just ended up “forgetting” about that one. My partner for it was Hunter and I saw him before second hour today (the day we were performing) and like the great partner I am, I said “Hey… which scene are we doing again?” I think Hunter nearly had a stroke. I think he stopped breathing. He got all huffy and in the middle of the crowded NC hallway, sat down, opened up his briefcase, put on his reading glasses, and began searching for the scene. I told him it was ok and we could just perform tomorrow. Turns out he didn’t know his lines either.. (See, I’m not the only naughty one) I practiced the scene at lunch though so I have it down. I did the other scenes today, so I only have Hunter’s to do tomorrow.. whew.
Today all in all, was good.
I found out that more sleep = Better mood.
Who knew?
In math we actually did work today. That so rarely ever happens. It took me by surprise, it really did.
In Chem we did our lab. Amanda and I barely had enough time to finish the thing.
I love lab days.. I really do. I don’t even mind wearing the goggles… and with our new assigned lab station, Amanda and I can hear every word that comes out of Daniel Thai’s mouth. He provides us with more than enough entertainment.
He thanks his lab partner Nick after every lab they finish.
“Thank you, Mr. Polsten for another well done lab.”
Nick doesn’t even do anything. He lets Daniel Thai do all the work. I don’t blame him, I’d do that too… but sometimes, Daniel Thai doesn’t even know what he’s doing. Its true. He’s not as smart as we all think he is.
And he doesn’t like to help out the less fortunate as all of second hour learned in December…
Lab was interesting today.
Quick disclaimer: If you're not in my 2nd hour chem class, this section may bore you out of your mind so you might want to skip it.
We’re like one big dysfunctional family in my chem class.
Thomas is that weird uncle you don’t like who touches you in ways he shouldn’t and snaps your bra strap when you walk by.
Daniel Thai is your geeky cousin from Canada who secludes himself in a corner during family reunions.
Robert Gibboni is your second cousin who you have weird feelings for when you know you're not supposed to.
Mrs. Rosenberg is the aunt with the botch dye job who nags you about how you should dress more conservatively…
A real family.
Anyway, today, James not only dropped his burner (which was lit by the way), but he also smashed two crucibles within minutes of each other.
How do you drop a burner?
Then from out of nowhere you hear Thomas’ pre-pubescent voice screech “No!! You’re not supposed to do that!” The entire room stopped because the high-pitched noise hurt our ears. And to think… he was almost in our lab group.. Scary.
Amanda and I sang.. as we always do.. and in the middle of our singing Andrew shouted out “Oh my G0d! You’re so stupid!” At first we were confused because we thought Andrew was yelling to us, but then two seconds later you heard the shattering of porcelain. Thomas had dropped his crucible and it turned out that Andrew was talking to him, not us. I miss being on that side of the room... Amanda and I are right by Rosie's desk now and sometimes she likes to stop and talk to us.
I’m proud to say Amanda and I made it through the lab without any major mishaps.
There should be more labs like the one today.
Rosie decided that from now on we must always make a million and a half observations when in lab… so I made a few real observations but seriously, my entire lab notebook is just quotes. I've been taking down quotes anyway in my lab book since August. It’s so ridiculous. Its like.. Procedure, Data Chart, Quotes… But Rosie saw it and she laughed. She thought it was cool, so I guess that’s good. At least she’s not marking me off for it.
In English today we went over more thesis statements. I have this sneakin’ suspicion that Sandberg doesn’t like me all that much. I don’t have any actual proof of this, but the other day after school, I said hi to her and she didn’t answer…Maybe this is proof enough.
I amazed everyone with my All Quiet on the Western Front knowledge in World History. Ok, that’s a lie, it wasn’t my knowledge, it was Sparknotes knowledge… but it came from my mouth, so I looked all clever and smart.
At lunch I studied my lines… nothing much happened. I started laughing for absolutely no reason and I couldn’t stop. That was fun…
In Spanish my teacher went off about what a G0d parent was. Yea, I kid you not. For about ten minutes she talked about what a G0d parent should do after the kid is baptized. How a G0d parent will stay close to the kid and “maybe even go to sporting events with their G0d child or other types of activities. They might cook with them or even teach them how to sew.” Unlike the little ninth graders in my class, I enjoy when my Spanish teacher goes off on a tangent. I like how she gets so into whatever she’s talking about that she doesn’t even realize that half of her class is asleep. And I’m not just saying this because I’m teacher’s pet in her class. Really.
In drama the girls sang a horrible rendition of “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler. It was so bad, but fun. Total movie scene where we all joined in with it. That stuff doesn’t happen everyday.
Came home.. napped a little… and here I am.
Watch Scrubs tonight. Think of me.
Quote of the day:
Rosie: “I don’t remember giggling being in the procedure…”
Daniel Thai: “It wasn’t. Please refrain from giggling.”
-- Daniel Thai telling Amanda and me to knock off the laughing during the lab.
"Did they just hiss at us?"
Hi.
It’s been a few days.
I deserted you guys.
I'm sorry if any of you felt abandoned by my sudden and abrupt absence.
But I'm back now.
Oh yes.
I'm back, baby.
So now that we’ve established that..
I say we get done to business.
FRIDAY
You think you know…. But you have no idea…
Friday I did a whole lotta nothin’..
Which was nice.
I slept..
I slept a lot Friday.
I think I did something else too… oh yea, I talked to Amanda and left a funny message on Andrew’s cell… by the way Andrew… your message company doesn’t give you a lot of time to leave a message… just so you know…
Amanda and I were bored (cuz we decided not to go along with the rest of my minions to see “Just Married” (Thanks anyway, but if I was so not even in the mood to spend 8 bucks to watch a bad movie with Ben, Lindsey, and Andrew.. Friday wasn’t exactly the best day… come to think of it… this entire week sucked..) so instead we changed the words to a song so that it related to Andrew and sang it to him in a message. He said that the message was funnier than the movie.
I should hope so.
So ah.. yea, that was my Friday.
Ta-da.
Saturday..
Now, Saturday was a different story..
Oh, who am I kidding?
No it wasn’t. I did nothing on Saturday.
I babysat.
And I caught an encore showing of Motorcrossed on the Disney channel.
Oh yea, I’m cool. Spending my Saturday nights watching Zoog Disney..
Zetis Supedis… I’m lame.
This brings us to Sunday.
Now, my horoscope informed me that starting this Sunday, Venus will be continuing its journey through Sagittarius and is joined by Mars.
I hope this is a good thing.
I don’t really know what this means..
But its happening and I cannot control the cosmos.
I went to this kid’s first birthday today.
I’d tell you the name of the kid if I could remember it.
Derick.. or… Devon… or something..
Wait, I’ll think of it… It wasn’t Dylan.. oh, oh, Dominic. Yea, the kid’s name was Dominic.
Yes, well, Dominic was, and I kid you not, wearing a helmet.
That’s right.
A helmet.
A helmet.
I still can’t get over that.
After the party, we were supposed to go to this Jew Festival… but then we ended up not going.
Did I mind?
No, not really..
We went out to dinner instead.
Fun.
We went to Rock Bottom.
I had never been there before, but it was good. I’d go again.
Saw Chicago later that same evening with Amanda.
She hadn’t seen it before, but she loved it (like I knew she would) and right after the movie she ran out to Barnes and Noble to buy the soundtrack.
Nothing really out of the ordinary happened this weekend… I might see my new cousin tomorrow.
He can breathe on his own now!
Woo hoo!
Quote of the day:
Stefi: I need a quote of the day.
Matty: What if Gary Coleman did a fat chick? Can you imagine the porn videos from that? It’d be like the marshmallow man attacking a burnt cheeto.
Stefi: lol wow you wanted that quote of the day slot really badly didn't you?
Matty: lol I did.
"Maybe you should take your pants off? That would make the day weirder."
Yea, so today sucked.
This week needs to be over.
I need some "me" time.
Anyway-
This morning I realized that Andrew and I wore practically the same style of clothes while walking with him to my first hour math class. Ok, so it wasn't exactly the same but it was too close for comfort. But hey, at least I wasn't dressed like Crystal... or Ben come to think of it..
During math I think we did a review sheet... oh, correction, I did a review sheet while the rest of my class made toast.
Yea, my class made toast.
We make toast in math class.
And after toast, the class sits there and spends 35 minutes taking down notes while I start my homework.
I think we have a test in there tomorrow... hmm
Second hour we did a lab in chem.
Third hour I was actually on task. Wow, I know.
Fourth hour Alicia Powers, Alicia Rawlings, and I discussed our bras. That was fun. Discussing bras. Can't get more girly than that can you?
During fifth hour lunch, we were trying to figure out what to do for my birthday..
We have a list of people who I'm inviting.. but no actual plans..
Everyone at the table was pushing for karaoke... we'll see.
I don't want to have a party with karaoke though just to have people go "Oh.... this is like Amanda's party... But Amanda's party was better.."
I don't want comparisons.
Sixth hour my class watched a movie about Diego Rivera while I thought about what I should do for my party (if I even have one.. I want one though), doodled, and slept.
It was 45 minutes of free time with a sub who didn't speak Spanish. My teacher doesn't come back until next Tuesday. Hoo-rah.
Nothing else really happened the rest of the day.
I've got stuff to study for.
Quote of the day:
Stefi: "Andrew, come on!"
::Andrew continues talking to Omaya while Amanda and I wait::
Stefi: "Andrew! Judy! Christina! Alexis! Cathy! Jessica! Crystal!"
Amanda: "Maggie!"
Stefi: "You just wanted to get one in there didn't you?"
Amanda: "Yea... I did."
-- Amanda trying to get Andrew to hurry up by calling him a girl's name because I needed to go to my locker after Chem
"I didn't scream.. I was just in shock.."
Wednesday was off to a fabulous start.
I was up on time. I was done on time. We left on time.
My mom was in disbelief.
Green Day was on the radio on the ride to school…
All was well.
Except that despite being able to get up on time… I'm still absolutely shattered.
In math class we discussed the finer points of Tom and Jerry, the cartoon. Finally, something I could understand…
In chem we went over HW and talked about our lab for tomorrow…. Oh, excuse me, Field Trip…
"What if the crucible is about to fall off the table, but its still hot? What should you NOT do?" Mrs. Rosenberg asked the class.
Daniel Thai, of course, was the first person to raise his hand. She didn't even have to look over to his side of the room to know his hand was in the air waiting to be called upon.
"Daniel?" she called on him.
"You should not leave the gas on." He said triumphantly. This, ladies and germs, is Daniel Thai's universal answer to everything. You should turn off the gas… Thank you, Daniel for enlightening us.
I'll skip third hour since I did work and accomplished things.
I know, amazing.
4th hour Sturgell played some Johann Strauss and I was this close to falling asleep.
This close…
But I had to take notes… so I didn't sleep. Shame cuz I was all in the mode and everything..
5th hour I went to book club and to my surprise, Dickettes was there. Now for those don't know Dickettes, he doesn't exactly look like the readin' kind. And he's kind of a jock. Weird combination, now I know you didn't expect that and I know what you're thinking… but we're not done yet, and I'm gonna throw another one at ya; he's pretty intelligent as well.
Shock and silence spread around the room.
A glass breaks.
A pin drops.
But yea, it was nice having Dick there cuz we exchanged funnies, which I usually can't do in the club except to the teacher and then she laughs and no one else…. And so yea..
Dick had many dickisms to share with us today:
Turns out, no one read the book club book.
I hadn't because I wasn't at the last meeting (sick) so I never got the permission slip or the book title so that I could actually read it… the other members excuses ranged from "couldn't get into it" to "couldn't find the book."
I brought a copy home from the school library so I could read it on my own time… but because no one read the book we spent the entire meeting talking about… well.. nothing. It was like… a freaky version of Seinfeld.
Dick was just randomly throwing things out into the open;
"What book should we read next?" Mrs. Jeras started.
"Oh! Oh!" This girl was pulling her best Horse Shack "Let's read She Said Yes. Its about the girl from Columbine."
"How long ago was Columbine?" Dick was just warming up. "Why do we still care about that?"
The room sat in silence for a good 30 seconds. No one could believe he just said that.
"I tell you why they made such a big deal out of it." Dick began his monologue, "It's because of where it happened. People get shot in Detroit.. New York.. all the time. I don't see anyone complaining about that. But when people are shooting in rich white neighborhoods.. it's a huge deal because black people are involved."
No one said anything for what seemed like 5 minutes.
"So.. yea, We need to start thinking of books to read…" Mrs. Jeras, clever woman, decided to ignore Dick's comment.
He said more…
"How do you die like a man when you're killed like an animal?"
"He's the President of the free world. Hell, I'll pay for his hoes!" (He said that after I brought up Monica Lewinksy..)
"You wanna talk about something controversial? How about 9/11? How long ago was that now? Two years ago?"
"A year or so." I corrected him.
"Yea, long enough ok. How many people died?"
"A lot?" I didn't know the exact number.
"30,000." Dick informed me, "Now, let's take a war… WWI. A lot more people died during WWI. We even have a day for it, Veteran's Day. So what do we do on Veteran's Day? We use it to go shopping! Yet, we cry over 30,000 people. You know why they made such a big deal out of it? I'll tell you why. Because of where it happened!"
Dick thinks we should start a talk club… or if not a talk club, a movie club..
I heard I missed out on some Skylar action today in the library with my minions.
Yea, gee.. wish I coulda been there. Musta been a blast guys.
In Spanish the kid who sits next to me decided we were friends. Actually, this kid is probably one of the more mature Freshman I have encountered during my sixth hour Spanish class, so as long as he doesn't start shouting out random stupid things ala Thomas.. we'll get along just fine.
Sitting at my desk sixth hour, not actually listening, my mind began to wander. I realized that my Spanish sub looked familiar. But Who I wondered, did she look like?
And then it hit me. Newman from Seinfeld. It was the image. I wish I was joking. I guess it kept with the whole Seinfeld theme this afternoon though.
7th hour was ok. Towards the end Mr. Bush came over to talk to Jen and me. Ever since she saw the movie Chicago she's had these dreams of being the next Roxie Heart. Mr. Bush, being the lovely guy he is, decided to crush her dreams with one turn of his penny loafers. There's always regional theatre though..
After school I went out around with Heath and his mom. We're sitting in the drive in at Sonic and this giant truck pulls up.
"I want a truck like that.." Heath awws at the massive vehicle.
"Why, is that to compensate for something?" His mom asked.
"Yes.. World War III..." He answered.
"What?" His mom was lost in confusion.
"What?" I asked, "Heath, that doesn't even make sense."
"It does too.." He pouted.
Mrs. Hammond and I stared at Heath.
"Ok.. ok.. I don't even know what that word means." Heath admitted.
"And to think your English teacher thought you had a good vocabulary..." His mom shook her head.
I came home and napped for awhile like the kindergartner I wish I was and then I went over to my Uncle Jason's house to watch my cousin Diego while my Uncle went to visit the baby my Aunt Paulina had just last night.
Mateo Anthony Vasques-Morris.
My Uncle's wife is spanish. Thus the name.
And the kid is blonde. So go figure.
I don't know the vital stats or anything just yet, but I know he's in ICU because he was having trouble breathing.. Everything should be ok by tonight though.
And I get to see him tomorrow! Aww.. I want to see the new baby..
Anywho, that's about it for today.
Quote of the day:
"Oh, here's the thing. I love abortion."
-- Dick during book club. Another one of his random quotes.
"Are we walking incredibly slow or is it that time is moving backwards?"
Half day! Woo hoo!
Who doesn't love a half day? Am I right? Am I right?
Of course I am.
Walked into first hour today to see cheetah print stretch pants, matching top, the giant hair, and of course the big ass giant cross… The everyday accessory.
Ah gee.. it must be math class...
The outfit looked like something straight out of Peg Bundy’s closet. I half expected a drunken Al to come barging into our classroom demanding a beer or something. With this in mind, it kind of made me wonder what Mrs. Milbourne’s husband actually looked like.. From the looks of her son Joey… He must be exceptionally handsome..
In second hour I was devastated to find that Mrs. Rosenberg wasn’t wearing a piece of lint in the shape of a flower or a parrot for that matter, on her shoulder that I could make fun of. She was wearing her Grandmother’s cameo pin. Not that any of you care… well, Andrew might…
Third hour I think we made fun of Thomas, but we do that so often that its not really an event or anything anymore. Just a mere occurrence..
Stephanie Meisenheimer… and I know I didn’t spell her last name right… came into English class late.
“I went to the library…” she stood by the door.
“Uh-oh! What should we do with her?” Ms. Sandberg asked the class.
“Send her to sweep!” Daniel Thai yelled above the rest of the class.
“No, we’ll let her in. Sit down.” Ms. Sandberg told Stephanie.
“But, the rules should be upheld!” Daniel Thai complained.
“No, we’ll let her in- Anyway..” Ms. Sandberg was just about to go on with teaching us about thesis statements.
“We should take a vote to see whether or not she should stay in class or go to sweep.” Daniel Thai began getting paper out of his notebook.
“No Daniel,” Ms. Sandberg was getting a little fed up and her mean side was starting to show through, “This is a dictatorship, not a democracy and she’s staying. Now, Back to-“
Daniel Thai interrupted Sandberg again.
“Yes, but you should strictly enforce the rules!” He was going for one last shot.
“She’s staying, Daniel.” And that last line was said with so much force that Daniel Thai sighed and gave up.
Ah.. I hope D to the T doesn’t graduate early. Without him my day would be so dull.
Fourth hour I had to give my presentation for Ms. Sturgell. That went… ok.. like, we had this whole funny thing to do (My partners were Alicia Rawlings and Tricia… somethingoranother..) where it was the Trixie, Trixi, and Trixy show..(we had to be news caster type people) and like… Tricia came out right away with “Yea.. I’m not doing that..” (she didn’t want to go up in front of anyone to begin with.. but the whole.. trying to be funny and being in front of the class thing didn’t really excite her at all) but Alicia agreed to it… so it was just going to be Alicia and me presenting with Tricia holding the cue cards… and that was fine with me.. So, anyway, we go to present and like, Alicia got scared and didn’t do the stupid stuff we were supposed to.. and it was just me.. and like, the kids laughed still.. it was ok, but it was supposed to be the two of us being Trixy and Trixi…. But instead it kinda ended up being like… Trixi and Alicia… but that’s ok… people still laughed with me AND learned about photography… so its all good..
No fifth hour shenanigans or hijinks today due to the half day… but yesterday we went around taking pictures with the throw away camera Eric got Amanda… that was fun. We visited all of the landmarks in the library… The geek table… the Himmler book.. That was… uh… well it passed the time and we had a few laughs, but it should never be done again.
In 6th hour Spanish we had this sub who didn’t know whether to keep her glasses on or off…As soon as she put them on, she was taking them off to talk to the class… It was funny but one of those “you have to be there” type things.
In Drama… the last class of the day.. I did what I always do; mock Sailor Erin and talk to Jen. That’s what I’ve been doing about the past month anyway. The set up works nicely for me.
Then I came home and didn’t do much of anything.. I watched Beauty and the Beast with my mom. This is the life I lead. Actually I was supposed to go out and aboot with Jen and …. Drum roll: Hunter.. (he got the pity invite because right as Jen and I were trying to make plans he sauntered over to see if he could strike up a conversation with us and we felt bad) but Jen never called…. (that’s ok, she didn’t think she’d be able to do anything anyway) So I never called Hunter (I probably would have chosen to "forget" to call him anyway)… so we never went out.. which.. is ok with me since I had originally planned to come home and sleep until 7 PM anyway.. It would have been fun.. but Hunter would have been there… That would have been weird… even during drama when he comes to talk to us we never really include him.. he has to push his way into the conversation… The outing would have been like… the never ending 7th hour… Us trying not to ignore Hunter but in the end, it being inevitable..
Anywho kiddies, I’m gonna do my HW..
Quote of the day:
Hasn’t happened yet… I’m waiting for Matt to get online so he can say something exceptionally witty and fantastic.. Come on, Matty. My readers and I are counting on you.
"Oh my G0d! That’s just so totally random! That’s so random!"
As all of you might know... yesterday was my retreat.
It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It really wasn't..
I had wanted to get up at 6:30 AM since the thing started at 8:30 AM and anyone who knows me... especially those who live with me... will tell you that it usually takes me, on average, an hour to get done.. I don't know why it takes me so long, but it does.
Yea.... so I ended up finally getting out of bed at 7:30. It was an accident. I had over slept.
I hauled ass like never before. I needed to be in the car by 8 AM. I was half asleep though and so after I took my shower and went to blow dry my hair, it was then that I realized I had forgotten to wash it so I had to get back in and quickly cleanse my shiny, healthy, beautiful hair. I have no idea how I ended up done by 8 AM.... but I did it. Amazing feat for me.
It didn’t help that my Uncle David was here however. Right as I was about to get into the shower, he decided to walk down the hall in his tighty whities so he could take a shower too.
“I’m running late.” I said to him as I grabbed a towel from the linen closet.
“Oh G0d I thought you were asleep!” He pulled his towel over him.
“I guess we’re even now.” I noted to him
(Oh yea, I don’t think I told you guys about how my Uncle David saw me in my underwear.. Its not a long story… I was getting dressed for school and he walked in.. that’s about it.)
“Ok. Well, then how about I take a shower first, then you can get done?” He said to me as he walked towards the bathroom.
I closed the linen closet door and stepped in front of him, “Yea, no. I need to be out of here in half an hour. I’m taking a shower first.” And with that I walked into the bathroom and shut the door. It’s a good thing I took a shower first too, cuz my mom told me that he takes half hour showers. I would have been really late… that would have been bad.
Oh and then later that morning when my mom came home from taking me, Uncle David told her how I annoyed him because I had been an hour getting done and took over the hall bathroom… (Technically my bathroom anyway). My mom said, “She couldn’t have been an hour when she was done in 20 minutes. (Its true. I got done in 20 minutes…. Quite an accomplishment. Fastest blow dryer in the west…) She got up late. She had to leave. You didn't have to go anywhere. She didn't do anything wrong.” He had nothing to say after that except “But I’m the guest and its polite.” I can’t even believe he said that…. An hour. What a jerk. Get over it. He had nothing to do anyway. He could have gotten up at 11 AM if he wanted to. He could have waited to take his shower. He had no plans. I however, had to leave. Yea… but anyway…
I finally got to the retreat (I was there early even). The first thing we did was have breakfast… which was cool.. lol The entire day was catered and they gave us like a ton of breaks cuz they wanted us all to talk and get to know each other. After breakfast we did the first of our activities, which all had a hidden meaning to them…. It was absurd really how they could say bouncing a giant ball symbolized how life can bring you hardships or some rubbish like that… I dunno. I dismissed it. If the others want to think that’s what it symbolizes… then fine, but to me… it was just a giant ball. It did bring back fond memories of Gymboree with my mother and sister though… I remember going to those and sitting in a circle with the other mothers and children and throwing the balls around and stuff…. Anyone else remember stuff like that? No? Just me? OK then.
And Mike, the head guy (who was nice), kept drilling it into our heads that the three most important things to learn at the retreat were;
· Trust
· Communication skills
· And how to make the most of something.
Yea, it was weird.. like, this is the stuff I almost always make fun of… and yet, there I was participating in an event like this. It was different to me.. And I actually had a pretty good time and met some cool people.. I know… weird.
Anyway, so we’re all sitting around at one of the 1000 breaks they gave us and this one perky girl, whose name I chose not to remember, decides to go around and ask people questions. She came over to where I was sitting with Andy, Brian, and this other kid Joe and sat down on the ground next to us. “So what’s the craziest thing you guys have ever done?!” The three of us looked at each other. Joe blinked a lot.
“What?” Brian looked puzzled.
“What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?! I wanna know!”
“I used to eat play-doh.” This kid from behind us said.
“Oh my G0d! Really?” Elfy left us for the play-doh kid, “That’s too funny! I used to eat play-doh too!”
We decided to try to stay away from the Elf Girl who turns out is the same Super Perky girl who was so passionate about music, life, and pretty much…. Well, everything.. the Thursday night before.
The rest of the day actually went pretty fast. The team I was on, the purple team, was the best at accomplishing all of our “missions”, which is what I started calling them because it was too much like road rules. Seriously, it was. The things we had to do reminded everyone of Road Rules.. Our team even had a discussion about it… but yea, anyway, so we finished all of the activities early and the directors of the program were all proud of us for using all of the attributes they were trying to make the others learn. It was nice. Oh and I stole a pen.
What? It was a cool pen.. A uni ball.. black.. fine point.
After I came home, I was online and decided to take a look at my blog to see if I got any new snazzy comments (I hadn’t) and left it up on the computer even after I was done because I’m used to my mom not caring and not reading it… no one in my family would dare read my blog (except for the one time my mom did… but I made her promise she wouldn’t do it again). I trust my family not to go through my stuff.
Uncle David however.. is a different story.
He sat down at the computer and started to read my blog….
My mom nearly jumped out of her skin and she interrupted my phone call with Amanda to tell me what happened.
“STEPHANIE, STEPHANIE, STEPHANIE!” She ran into my room.
I was in the middle of laughing at Amanda while we watched the WWF in Spanish,
”What? What?” I held the phone down “What is it?”
“YOUR BLOG!” My mom hissed to me.
“What about it?”
“Uncle David started to read it!”
“So?”
“So! You WROTE ABOUT HIM!”
And it was then…. That I remembered….
I had written; “Uncle David is here…. Ode to joy.”
I tried to keep my cool, “Serves him right. He shouldn’t have read it.”
But inside I felt sick to my stomach.
“Its ok, I already fixed it.” She said to me
Turns out my mother copy pasted my blog into word and doctored it to make it look like I didn’t really mock him.. then opened it in Explorer and made it look like a website… and showed it to him again later that evening saying “see, she didn’t mean it like that.” pretty clever…. Gotta love Mommy. I can’t believe I left it open. Ahh..
Anyway,
So today I did nothing at all. I did HW. That’s about it.
I was so tired… I was supposed to go visit my dad at the Phoenix Home and Garden show where he has a booth for his business (He wanted me to be his booth bitch today), but there was no way I was getting up at 7 AM to talk to people over 40 all day about what my dad does for a living. This does not appeal to me.
That’s about it for this weekend. Sorry the last oh..30 posts or so have totally sucked.
Quote of the weekend:
Mike: “OK, Stephanie, tell me one thing that I wouldn’t be able to tell about you just by looking at you.”
Stefi: “I name inanimate objects.”
Group: “What?”
Stefi: “Oh yea…. Toasters, lockers, computers… pretty much everything.:”
Mike: “Well ok! That’s great!”
-- Mike being overly perky and I think just a little freaked out by the fact that I name everything
"If you don’t sing, I won’t talk to you."
So its been a few days...
Nothing has really changed... but I'll still update you about the jumbled pieces of crap I call my life.
Tuesday... was boring.
It was attack of the giant over grown flower pin in Rosie's class (again) and she went off for a solid 45 minutes about her favorite scientists. I couldn't even make it funny if I tried..
I'll skip over the other boring stuff........
So.. pretty much everything Tuesday..
Oh.. well, Tuesday I wore a red jacket thingy and everyone made fun of me… Cuz it was red.
And Wednesday.... also boring.
Thursday..
Was also boring.... actually... The school part anyway…
My Uncle David is in town.
Ode to joy.
Thursday night was the Valley Teen Leader Conference.
I've never been in a room with so many hot guys before. It was incredible....
Everywhere you looked was a picture perfect male specimen just... waiting to be oogled....
So many... so many..
There were also a lot of people that I’d never talk to in my life…
Like, Super Perky girl who I quote “[Loves] to be passionate about things… Music… dance… Oh, and I’m in spirit line!”
She seriously, was like a cartoon character.
But yea... so we're sitting 4 kids to a table and you have your parents there with you and this woman Jolene.... or, whatever the board member's name was.. said she wanted us to go around the table and say one thing you liked and one thing you hated. Well, I didn’t know what to say really.. so I said I liked writing but hated to get up early… so my mom, who went right after me says the same exact thing…. I was like… wow.. is that weird? Should that have happened? No one else had the same answer as their parent.. The really hot guy… Andy… who yes Matt.. had black nail polish… I know.. I know… but he thought it was funny… And he was hot….
Later, they got all of the kiddies into a big room and had us ‘mingle’. Kids are so bad at mingling… it went a lot like this;
“So… what school do you go to?”
“North Canyon… you?”
“Xavier.”
“Oh cool.”
“Yea…… So….. what do you like to do?”
“Um… just hang out with friends… listen to music.. read, write. That kind of stuff… you?”
“Oh, well I’m in Academic Decathlon and the physics club. I enjoy translating Latin proverbs into English and I’m extremely active in my church youth group.”
“Hmm.. yea? Cool.”
“Yea.”
“yea..”
::Ten seconds of silence while pretending to look at your watch or take a drink of the complementary beverages they put out.::
“So…… you like school?”
“Yea. North Canyon isn’t bad. How about you?”
“Yea… I like Xavier.. My friends go to Xavier.”
“Cool.”
“Yea.”
And then, the 3 minutes are over and they make you switch partners... and the whole thing starts over again.. except maybe this time instead of Xavier the person goes to Brophy or Horizon.
There were only a few kids who made really good conversation… but some of them looked like they had already decided they hated me.
So many hot guys there…wow… but yea, anyway..
Friday went so slow……..
The day just seemed to drag on and on.. but maybe that was because I was so tired. Seriously, everyday this week I’ve woken up with these thoughts;
What classes can I sleep through?
Maybe I can rush to get done and then have 20 minutes to sleep before I go to school?
Can I stay home today.. just maybe?
I must start going to bed earlier…. I say that now and its already 1 AM and I have to get up at 6 AM. I’m a moron..
But yea, school was slow..
Rosie wore lint on her jacket as decoration...
She has absolutely no fashion sense.
Spanish class is probably the worst. Its right after lunch and its just awful.
My counselor won’t let me switch periods… oh well. I didn’t expect her to anyway. She never let’s me do anything. I keep mainly to myself in that class. Oh, today she called on me for something and when she said my Spanish name I heard all of the Freshman say “Margarita? She actually chose that name?” I was like, nice. I’m different. In that class we have like… 3 Claudias, 2 Amelias, a couple Juans… I am original.
After school Jen came over and we went to see the movie Chicago. It was really good. We were kinda late though (NOT MY FAULT! I swear.) so we missed like the first…. Minute. Afterwards we went to eat and then she came back to my house to hang for bit. She had to go to work though so we took her over to TCBYs (where she works) and I went home to get ready for Amanda’s 16th b-day party.
That I was late for…. That was my fault.. Sorry Amanda..
The party was good though. The entertainment was Amanda’s favorite thing; karaoke. Amanda doesn’t like anything more than karaoke. I had a good time. I think everyone else did too. I even sang.. One song… but I sang.
Matt totally worked it with the dancing and the singing. Then he cracked everyone up at the end with his Chester the Child Molester character, which he brought out of retirement just for the party.
Andrew sang pretty much every song, I don’t know who was having more fun; him or Thomas. Everyone did well. Even Eric sang. Bravo everyone. Bravo.
And Katie wasn’t there…
I knew she wouldn’t show.
If anyone has any ideas for my 16th b-day party.. let me know please. I need to start planning.
Hmm.. that’s been pretty much it.. sorry for the lack of updates.. basically every day this week I came home and crashed for 4 hours.. then had HW. More updates next week I promise.
Tomorrow I have to go to the “Retreat” so…. We’ll see how that is. I’m sure I’ll have a lot to blog..
Keep it real, homies.
Oh, and by the way.. I’m really, really tired right now so if this blog by any chance doesn’t make sense… its from the lack of sleep.
Quote of the day:
“Party back at Chester’s!”
-- Matty doing his Chester the Child Molester
"You look perky today."
Back to school.
The joy.
I do love waking up at 5 a.m. on a regular basis...
You know.. just last week I was going to bed at 5 a.m.
Good times...
School was ok.... The bell hadn't even rung yet and I was already spewing off Back to the Future references. I swear to G0d could I get any more pathetic?
Well... yea I could I guess... I could be Katie Davids.
Speaking of Katie Davids... I made Amanda give Katie a pitty invite to her party. She was right there at lunch watching everyone else open the invites... you couldn't just leave her out... and its not like Katie's going to show anyway. It'll be ok.
My schedule changed just a little bit... They flipped my 1st and 6th hour classes (Spanish and Math). My Spanish teacher actually hugged me when I left her class this morning before going to my new first hour. It scared me a little.... I was going to see her again 6th hour anyway.
First hour math was boring. The kids are calm though... that was nice.. my 6th hour math class last semester was a zoo. Honestly. I could never hear what the teacher was saying...
I guess maybe all 6th hour classes are like that though because my Spanish class (Pretty much all obnoxious Freshman. Honestly, I was never like that..) was awful. This one kid who thought he was frickin' Jim Carrey or something kept saying some really stupid comments... like the teacher said "What does ser mean?" and the kid, who I might add was going for that all mighty ghetto rap superstar Eminem look... over sized white sweat suit... says "Circus!"
So the other little freshman think this is the funniest thing ever. I'm not kidding. They could not control themselves so Nick Harris (the only other sophomore) and I exchanged glances.
Five minutes later, the teacher decides to ask the kid the same question..... to which he replies with the same answer.
More laughter results from this from the freshman.
The kid said some other stupid things too, and each time he had the freshman in stitches.
It made me sick.
And then some other kid dressed in a blue over sized sweat suit, kept trying to outdo this kid with even stupider comments.... such as when Senora Flowers asked "If a girl isn't wearing calcetines then her feet will be what?" and the kid shouts out "Stinky!" and all of the freshman laughed... Its like, omg if you're gonna shout stuff out.. make it funny.
They were total morons.
And then this one girl couldn't even control her laughing and she was so loud she was sent to sweep.
I wanted to stand on top of my desk and shout, "YOU GUYS AREN'T FUNNY! YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW FUNNY! SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
But I didn't.. wanted to though... wanted to.
Needless to say, I'm gonna be moving out of that class pretty soon.
Everything else was pretty much the same... I wasn't really prepared to start learning again so soon..... Well, I was, but I didn't want to. I was not surprised to see that we have a test in Rosenberg's class already on Thursday... I'm surprised she didn't just spring it on us today.
Oh, and get this;
I have both Katie Davids AND Daniel Thai in my English class.
That's right.
Both of them.
And they sit head to head right across from each other.
3rd hour is gonna be interesting. I hope I get some good blogs out of it.
Nothing else really going on..
I've got HW to do so I'm gonna get it out of the way.
I hope everyone had a good day back at school.
Quote of the day:
"Hey, idiot."
::Ben turns around::
"Ha! I said "idiot" and you looked."

The calm before the storm...
I'm savoring these last quiet moments before the rush of school begins tomorrow..
School.
Damn.

Today I went to brunch with my mom's family.. that was fun.
My cousin Alexandra was there and I hadn't seen her in a while so we were talking. She's all... hip and with it. I like to hang out with her. She used to come over and hang out all the time when she worked close to my house but now she works in Tempe so I don't see her as often.
After brunch I went to Office Max where I saw one of my favorite teachers from middle school, Mr. Doyle. It was cool. We talked for a few minutes and he gave me his e-mail address so I'll e-mail him a bit later.
That's about it..
Nothing really more to say..
Everyone enjoy this last night.
Quote of the day:
"Isn't it enough that I got accepted... do I actually have to go?"
-- Me complaining to my Uncle who runs Valley Teen Leadership that I didn't want to go....
He has a good sense of humor.... he laughed...
He didn't realize I meant it.
