Little Burst of Imagination!

I really love strange/random kinds of dreams. It's funny to think back upon them and wonder, "Why on earth was Hulk Hogan in my dream?" (Not my dream, my mom's. XD)
But also, they make you want to stay asleep a little longer to see how they end. Curiosity seeps within your mind and tries to lure you into thinking, "I'm still asleep! The dream can't end yet! Just a little more!"
This morning I dreamt I was skating, but it wasn't in a skating rink. I basically skating on a pathway that went through a pond. The pathway was broken up at parts, forcing me would have to jump a little so I wouldn't fall in the water (though at one point I did, but I didn't feel like I just became soaking wet). I was skating with a friend and we kept going around on the path, supposedly trying to catch up with one another.
And that's all I remember.
Weird dream, right?
Though, it's kind of funny because I'm thinking, "Where did skating come from? And what's up with the pond? Why would someone ever skate through a pond?"

I'm thankful for these dreams because they're not serious. They're just a little burst of your imagination coming to visit you!

An Almost Wish for Day to Day

I asked my mom today if she thought her life was boring or dull.
She said, "Yeah."
What on earth was the reason I asked?
Well, I was thinking I just about wish that my life was almost the same day to day.
One could argue that it is, since I go to school every week day and basically stay at home every weekend.
But I thought about it and came to the conclusion that my life changes every day, well, at least on school days.
Every weekday, I go to school, go to the same classes that I have been for the past semester, and see the same teachers. Every day I do this, I learn something new, start something new, or get something accomplished. I have never had a class that was the same as the last. Usually, one would mainly expect this from classes like math, but what if every class is like math? What if a new subject or activity is covered each day?
Well, I'd kind of get tired of it. I'd kind of want a break to just sit back and relax for a moment.
Not worry about an upcoming test, not worry about an essay being due, not worry about finding spare time during classes to give or receive help on last night's homework!

I know my life isn't as stressful as others, but sometimes when you're not used to it, it can be exhausting.

I AM DREW CAREY!!!

Last night was the best night I've had in a long time.
I went to Stacie's house, along with Alyssa, Emily, and Kelsey, to play "Whose Line is it Anyway?"
I never would've imagined that it'd be so hard to do! During one game, we were given a scenario and would make a comment to go along with it if we could. (e.g. Scenario: Odd things to find on a postcard saying, "Wish you were here!" Comment: "...Wish you were here...Oh look Kelsey! It's *so-and-so*'s open arms!" [Stephanie said that. XD])
This game was so unusually difficult! XD I maybe said one or two comments out of all the times we played it!
Another game that was loads of fun, but difficult, was the Hoedown. Oh. My. Goodness. I will never live that game down. Let's just say that highly I recommend you rhyme "tumble and fall" with "all" instead of "no clothes at all" when talking about a guy on the beach. AHEM! Yeah...horrible. (-_-)"
But anyway, another game that was fun was using the props. Alyssa and I teamed up once in this game with a Gladiator helmet. We found various "uses" for it such as a Spartan helmet, broom, and chest hair. I think Alyssa really enjoyed this game, especially when she held the helmet up to my armpit and said, "Oh gosh! You didn't shave this morning!" XDD
Press Conference was...pretty easy actually! ;D I was holding a press conference, though I didn't know who I was or why I was holding a conference, though, it became pretty clear, thanks to Kelsey. Apparently, I was Forrest Gump sitting on a bench telling my life's story because Kelsey wanted to get my attention to ask a question and shouted, "Forrest! Forrest!" and everyone was just like, "Kelsey!" So, I'm pretty sure that I was Forrest Gump. XD Thanks Kelsey!
We played one game called "90 Second Alphabet." You have to begin a sentence with a letter in the alphabet that had to do with the given scene, though, the letters had to be in order. Man, was it was hard! I think it was pretty much hard for everyone, well, except for Emily. Emily ended up being the only one who actually had their head on straight, even though she was the one screaming, "Oh my gosh! I don't know what to do!" and tugging at her hair. (We were on letter "O," apparently.)
Throughout this entire "episode" of Whose Line, people kept tapping Stacie's buzzer when she wasn't looking. Finally, she hit the buzzer rapidly and shouted, "I. AM. DREW. CAREY!! DON'T TOUCH MY BUZZER!"

Overall, the "BEST" part of the entire night was when I was at a Press Conference as President Obama:
Me: I didn't know I had a dog...
Kirby: -waddle- -waddle- -waddle-
Me: Oh.
Stacie: OH MY GOSH, KIRBY! YOU'RE A GENIUS!!! 100,000 POINTS!!!


So there you have it! I hint of what the night was like!
Oh look! I included a quote from everyone, even Kirby! XDD

To Buy or Not to Buy?

You know how sometimes you want to buy something bad enough that you basically don't care about how much it costs? Well, my most recent object of want has been a XBox360. If you know mw, you're probably thinking something along the lines of, "Doesn't her brother already have one?" You'd be correct. He does have one, but I kind of want one of my own.
I have some good reasons, so don't accuse me of being an idiot just yet!
My brother's XBox360 is in his room, so there are times when he comes home and we, my dad and I, are in his room playing on it. I feel bad when it's late at night and my brother wants to go to bed but can't because I'm playing a game. Part of me wants turn off the game and let him sleep, but the other part wants to just scoot over so he can lay down and continue playing. My dad feels the same way I do, and has actually experienced more of these situations than I have because of the ever-growing stack of homework from school.
So, to solve this "dilemma," my dad and I have thought about buying our own XBox360. This way, we wouldn't bother my brother when we want to play more and he wants to sleep! Also, when my brother doesn't mind, one person can play on his XBox360 and be playing against whoever is on our XBox360! This would be especially cool for online, single-player games.

For a few days, we got to the point that we were about to go buy one. I still have the money that we put together with me in my room. Though, lately the urge to buy another has died off. So I don't know if we will buy one or not at this point, but oh well! :P

30 Rockefeller Plaza

Recently, I've watched the ever-so praised TV show, 30 Rock which is one of Stacie and Alyssa's new favorite shows.
I've heard of this show from these two people for quite a while now, though for how long I am unsure of. It seems that almost every day I hear one of them state a quote, which, I've noticed, one of their favorites being, "I would--n't!" I've learned not to ask what it is from because the answer is always, "30 Rock." Each time they declare the origin of the quote, they add that I need to watch it, while including a smack on my arm. Eventually, I agreed to watch it. When it was time for the brand new episode to come on TV, I was not sitting in front of the television. Actually, I was still at a restaurant that my sister worked at because she and my mother were having a discussion.
(Even if I was at home, I doubt I would've remembered to watch it because I forgot what time it came on! Whoops!)
A week later, I was able to successfully watch an episode of 30 Rock.
And it happens to be that the one episode I see on TV is the one episode that Stacie and Alyssa didn't care for. It was all about a character named Jenna who, I presume, is not one of their favorite characters.
(After seeing that episode, I can't help but agree. She's too...no offence, but she's too air-headed.)

I haven't seen an episode on TV since then, but on one of our many snow days, I turned on the computer and watched them online, as many TV shows now put their older episodes on their website.

All I can say is this:
I wish I knew 30 Rock made reference to 30 Rockefeller Plaza so I could've scored better on that History quiz!
(Sorry, but it was a "you had to be there" kind-of moment.)

Country Music, What's Wrong With It?

Is there something wrong with country music?
I mean, does everyone think it's so terrible that it's not agreeable for anyone?
In Biology, we were talking about radio waves and why each radio station number is the way it is.
When we talked about not having a good radio signal, our teacher pointed out one area that you usually will only get 4 stations. A student then said, "Yeah, and they're all country!" Everyone laughed and agreed. Quietly, I uttered, "And what is the problem with country music?"
It annoys me somewhat that so many people "bad-mouth" country music.
You know it wouldn't be there if someone didn't like it, so please try not to offend others too much with your opinion. (Sorry if that came off rudely, is wasn't supposed to sound that way.)
I respect your opinion, but I'd like you to respect mine, too. :)

And yes, I was listening to country music while typing this. ;D

What Would You Do For a Klondike Bar?

Before you read anymore of this blog, I want you to know this is for pure amusement. So is anything seems pointless or condradicts itself, it was supposed to so I can make you laugh because this is America's Funniest Home Blogs.
...Okay, so this is not even close to being that funny, but...it made me laugh. If you at least GIGGLE, I'll be satisfied.
So, sit back, relax, and prepare to scroll!

--//AFB//--

What happens when a simple question is taken out of control?
Okay, so maybe it didn't go "out of control," but it got...it got imaginations going.

Random Announcer Dude [EDIT: white font]: For the sake of humanity, the following persons names' will be changed for the online publishing of this story!

The story is this: two friends were texting about a blog idea when things got to the point where one accused the other's dog of peeing on America's best literature! Well, one of the pieces of America's best literature.
Here we go:

Stacey: Gimme something to blog about.
RAD: The demand!
Michele: Uhm...what would you do if...you wanted a klondike bar?
RAD: The mockery!
Stacey: I don't really care for those, so...Nothing.
RAD: She took a gun and shot that one down! Ouch!
Michele: What would you do if you had 4 ft of snow outside your front door and couldn't leave your house for a week?
RAD: Is that a threat?!
Stacey: uhh. Play pokemon.
RAD: I don't blame her. I would, too!
Michele: What if the power was out and your [Nintendo] DS died?!
RAD: The horror!
Stacey: Use our generator and charge it.
RAD: Ooh! Good answer!
Michele: What if someone stole your generator in the middle of the night for their own [Nintendo] DS?
RAD: Somebody call the neighborhood watch because the thief is about to strike again!
Stacey: Id shoot em.
RAD: Okay, now THAT is definitely a threat! Security!
Michele: What if the bullet went through them and caused the generator to explode with no hope of it being fixed?!
RAD: Wow! I did not see that coming!
Stacey: Then Id just sit in my house and read [A Tale of Two Cities].
RAD: Now this is a very educated girl! Reading such fine literature!
Michele: What if you finished the book?
RAD: Well, someone is a Little Miss Attitude aren't we?
Stacey: REREAD.
RAD: Ooh! We're getting vicious here!
Michele: What if [your dog] peed on the book?
RAD: Oh, she did not just go there!
Stacey: Then Id just go to sleep all day.
RAD: Now, that's some real talent there! I don't know anyone that can sleep all day!
Michele: Well, isn't that enough to write a blog about? It'd be at least a paragraph long.
RAD: Uh-oh, now she's getting fed up with her!
Stacey: No.
RAD: Ooh! I think she'll need some ice for that burn!
Michele: okay. Well, now you're idea-less
RAD: It's about to be a what? Girlfight!
Stacey: I'll think of something.

Well, there you have it folks! "They come, they eat, they leave!" Good night everybody!
--//AFB//--
Yeah, you try writing a blog when you're this silly.

EDIT: Okay, I noticed on my page, the black font is automatically white, not black, so...my bad.
Also, I'd like to say that I had Girlfight stuck in my head after that comment.
(And I don't know the lyrics to the song, so that part kept repeating in my head over and over!)
ANDDD.....I'm sorry that this blog was so stupid. I couldn't come up with any better ideas...XP
