Okay. We got home today from ordering our brand new, 2005 MINI Cooper S series!!!! It's so exciting! It's electric blue, with a black top and black bonnet stripes. Here's a pic of the color below. Anyway, I gotta wait 8 stinkin weeks until we can go pick the thing up. That really really sucks. I wanna ride in it now!!! Nothing else to report here...I'll let you gaze in wonder at the spectacular picture of our future car. No drooling, please.

Okay. Today I got my new retainers. And the top one hurts SO bad. My teeth must have moved just enough so that it hurts to move them back. Greeeeat.

Oh! I ordered the Los Lobe Hose sock earring pattern and #0000 dpns. (This is knitters' lingo. If ya don't get it, look it up...it takes too much time to write it in the vernacular.) I'm so excited! My aunt gave me some left over Regia yarn (since yarn is so expensive and I don't have a job....not old enough). I cannot wait until it gets here. I did write more on my book, but I won't subject you to its horrifying nature. It could drive you mad.

So anyway, tomorrow my parents and I are going to Hartford to look at the Mini. I guess my mom wants to buy one, since her car now is crapping out, PLUS if she does get it, that means I get to learn to drive in a Mini. How cool is that? Not that I'm influencing her that way. Liar, says you? Believe what you will, says I. I finished the Cleaves pattern from knitty.com. I would post a pic but I don't know if our camera's batteries are dead or not. It's hard to tell.

Anyway, I went online today and looked at my school calendar and it seems that there is no first day of school for sophomores. Does that mean that I don't go to school? ::is wishing:: I doubt it. Unfortunately. I have 6 honors level classes this year. Theology and World History 2 (1st semester only) didn't come in honors, else I'm sure that my TEACHERS would have signed me up for them too. ::sigh:: I don't know how I'm going to survive! I mean, I'm smart, but not that smart. You'd have to talk to my friend Clara if you wanted that kind of smart. And we're only in 2 classes together next year, which sucks. We only have off period together 1st semester. But I do feel bad for her...she has the Fitz 2 classes in a row. And she doesn't have Ms. Luginsland. She's awesome!

On another note, I went on fanfiction.net today and was astonished at the number of horrible fics I came across. That brings the bottles of Bleeprin that I have consumed up to: 73 (one for each fic.) Don't ask. I saw more than a dozen that need a heavy duty sporking...hmm...I should add that to my bad fic tool kit: a bottle of extra strength Bleeprin and a heavy duty spork.

Okay. I think that's it. Till tomorrow, remember: a crazy insane asylum is a happy insane asylum!

Hey y'all!

Okay, basically I rant here. And rant...and rant. But you can post comments if ya want. I don't really care one way or the other.

I finally know what I want to do with my life! I want to work in a forensic crime lab (so doesn't the rest of the world, @@). I was watching this show where they show exactly what the real CSIs do, and how they do it. And the branch that caught my attention was the crime lab doing the DNA and fingerprints and stuff. So I went online and checked out WVU's Forensic Science Initiative. They also have a graduate school nearby at Marshall University that seems extremely extensive and good. So hopefully I do well on my PSATs and then, later, on my SATs...which reminds me...I hafta see when I have to register for the PSATs. Hmm...well, later! ...much......
