It's hard to watch the movie Angela's Ashes, everything is dark and gloomy and i'm just describing the visual aspect of it. The dark tints of blue and grey really add to the sadness and it's saturated in these colors, but not only is it visually depressing, it's also emotionally depressing. I sit here and watch it along with typing this to you all out there. Don't get me wrong! The book was wonderful, full of little comments here and there that make it amusing without the visual colors that add to this sadness, at least I can use my imagination to come up with something less miserable than this movie. If there are any mistakes forgive me because i'm also busily watching the movie and typing whatever comes into my mind.

I got a guitar yesterday (as a present) and now i must take guitar lessons so that i can impress everyone with my fingering. haha. The weather has been perfect. Too bad i gave up running on the beach because it would have been a wonderful sunrise this morning. There are a lot of things that need to be done today! I have to run all over town and there are still too many things that need handling at home as well. It seems that everytime i turn around another weekend has rolled ever closer to me and you all know how i feel towards saturday! I wont even capitalized the s. That'll show it! So I’ll keep this post short and say todaloo…

Oh today is so much better. The cold front came along sometime last night but i didn't get my desired thunderstorm...Even the cars seem to think so because i cannot see any traffic or cars at all for that matter below my window. Now that Summer is slowly shutting down it's show, i find that this is the time in which i've begun to feel the need to do things. Earlier in the summer i hardly lifted a finger but now i've found that i must get things done and that there is no time left in which to do it. Although if you ask me what things there are that need to be done i really can't answer you. Only it is this feeling of being rushed, time passing too quickly, not enough time for something. Why is that? Why is it that I seem to have let the first two months slip by and now I feel as if I’ve procrastinated with an important project and now must bs the entire last 10 pages of it? Perhaps it’s because I haven’t had a vacation in a while and when I finally did I talked myself into doing nothing, and now my body is telling me that it is time to go back to work and that I must catch up on everything I missed. It also doesn’t help that I woke up cold this morning after just experiencing a heat wave and I awoke thinking that fall had started and that it was time for school again. But enough of this talk! I still have a chunk of august left and I must make the most of it. So for now I’m

For those who like to put down the boy bands, i know you're all in the closet about your true feelings. Please do admit when you're alone in the car or driving with mummy to school and she has lite rock on, you know every word to Backstreet's Back Alright! Who asks the ever ponderous question of the meaning of loneliness? BSB! And they are really trying their hardest to not be an embarrassment to us all. As an example n'sync has a remake of their song Girlfriend which features Nelly, now come on, we like Nelly right? He's the guy that sings that song about how hot it is and tries to talk you into taking off your clothes, what decent girl dislikes a song like that? So we really must give them some allowance and just stick a toe out of the closet? So coo away with these boys or shall i say men? and wont you please, wont you please, please wont you be my neighbor? Man it's getting hot in here, i think i'll just take off all my clothes. See ya there neighbor.

Although i would like to say that i love the summer for reasons such as no school, swimming pools, and air-conditioned movie theaters, there are a few unbearable things about it. For one it's too hot and sticky here, there's a haze this morning that seems to hang in the air and stick to my skin and every nook and cranny of my body making it so hard to breathe and move. In general it's terr-i-bull! I struggle for you all out there just so that i may write and post and publish this blog! Even the cars seem to be affected by this haze, they're stuck to eachother in traffic outside my window, only adding to my sense of crampness and irritability. I dislike heat waves and the foreboding sense that their was never such a thing as non-humid days. Another unbearable side-effect of Summer is the bugs, namely bugs that leave you scarred with their marks for the rest of the summer. To add to this insult they love to munch and leave their traces on the part of my body that i, as a girl, like showing off, such as my legs, my face, and my arms. I have a very peculiar bite right now on the knuckle of my right hand (thank god i'm left-handed). What makes it peculiar you ask? well it is a little less than a centimeter long, running down my hand and half a centimeter wide running across so that makes it tinier than most of my bites but here's the amazing thing! I can count 5 seperate bumps and two dots where the horrid beasts made their incisions!! Well i tire of all this typing at the moment, so for now i shall just add this, though i can probably list more reasons why i love summer, the unbearibilty (that's not a word) of it makes it the least favorite of all my seasons!

I think we should be able to do audio log blogs but i guess that would take up too much space for just a 30 second little piece of advice from me. Some day i shall try it though... I would like an online audio book so that i can be read to, but perhaps i will be the only one doing the reading, as usual. I have recently become a reader of Agatha Christie, Dame rather, and now i have ordered three more books of hers bringing my total of books by Dame Agatha Christie in my lil library to...ta ta ta tadadadada: 5...yes five books. The first two were "Ten Little Indians" also published as "And then there were none" 2nd book was "Murder on the Orient Express" also published as "Murder on Calais Coach". Why do they publish it under two different names i wonder.? Well, the 1st Harry Potter was published in England as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone instead of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, just because the title was better suited for the English audience. Well maybe my first audio book shall be a Dame Christie book...and for now i shall just have to type instead of say:

Once upon a time Saturday mornings were relegated to Saturday morning cartoons...but now? well, for some reason they deemed it worthy for morning news, as if Saturday was a hard working day, but as far as i can tell Saturday is not a working day at all! I'm upset that my once favored stations for disney morning cartoons is filling up my morning with insipid facts and policies which, i for one, can easily take in on a Monday thru Friday routine but not on a Saturday! my day of all day jammie wearing, cereal-eating, cartoon watching! please give me back my smurfs and care bears and heehee my macho macho g.i. joe....real american hero... !! and with this my friends you will now know that Saturday is my most disappointing day of the week, no it's not monday, no! it is SATURDAY! Clifford the big red dog, my ass!!! And now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
