The Reeeally Long Apology Blog

If youre a loyal audience member, you have been mighty confused for nearly a month now. Ive written nothing of any value ever since i went jobhunting (no, sadly, that doesnt mean i got a job), and when i did post stuff it was just random cryptic lines like "funny russian mama". You poor, poor, people. Did i lose my password? No. Did i get hacked? No. Did i get a virus? Well, yes, but not on this website and thats not the main reason i havent written anything. Im ashamed to say, ladies and gentleman, that i have simply stopped blogging for all this time because of laziness and procrastination. The worst part is that i stopped blogging at pretty much the MOST exciting time of my entire summer! But worry not, young bloggers, i shall make it up to you by explaining EVERYTHING in this blog. It will be long. Very long. So be warned, because here comes a month's worth of drama and news.

First things first. Remember that sleepover i went to at Tiffany's house? Well it was fun and everything but i didnt know how greatly it would change my love-life. The guy that i mentioned, Brady, started texting and flirting with me shortly after the party was over. Not too suspicious considering i was stuck wearing short shorts the entire party, but i digress. Brady wasnt the only one: It seems as though ever since summer started ive been apparently more attractive to guys. I had recently joined a teen dating site (lame, i know, but i was curious) and met a lot of great, funny guys, including a hot, witty valedictorian from Orlando. He turned out to be a perv, though, and he played hard to get so much that it wasnt fun anymore, just off-putting. Then there was Andre, who i already told you about, but he wasnt all he was cracked up to be. In reality, he turned out to be paranoid and afraid of everything (including the movies), desperate for commitment, and possibly (no lie!) have a mental instability. The website turned out to be a virus-hotspot, too. I almost feel bad saying it all, but i try to keep this blog as honest as possible. Which brings me to my next bit of unfavorable news......

I COULD POSSIBLY FAIL THE SCHOOL YEAR.
Shocking, i know. I didnt even see it coming, but when i got a letter in the mail saying i didnt have enough credits, my dad stormed in like a madman and demanded an explanation. You see, ive been a bad girl. Ive lied to a lot of people about my grades, parents, teacher, and friends included. I thought if i didnt tell anyone i was letting my grades slip i wouldnt cause any drama and i would pull through and not have to worry about it.
But instead i never brought them back up in time. I have to make up a semester of Algebra 2 in summer school, and a semester of APUSH on Florida Virtual School as well as Chemistry Honors, all before the next school year starts. Scary, huh? I cant believe i let it get this bad, but sometimes thats just how it is with me: i try to do things all by myself and then i cant handle all the pressure. Oh yeah, and lets not forget the 4 summer reading books i have to finish, too. (The Hobbit, The Fountainhead, Unwind, and How to Read Literature Like A Professor) But this time at least i wont be alone, and as long as i try to think positively about it, maybe itll teach me a lesson.

I was blessed with good timing after my bad news, though. My parents planned a family vacation to Disney only 2 days after we found out about my grades, and since it was already paid for and summer school didnt start until July 8th, my parents decided to be lenient with me. The bonding was exactly what we needed to get everyone's mind off things (especially me). It was a blast, and everyone had such a great time. Thats what all those random posts were about, by the way, because i didnt have access to a computer at Disney so to remind myself of all the funny stuff that happened i texted everything to my blog and viola. But since the Disney trip is SOOOO long and detailed, ill just do a different post all about it and continue with what happened the rest of my missing time.

When we got back, things were relatively normal. All we did was battle each other on Guitar Hero World Tour (I am the unsurpassed champ of the Medium Level! lol) and lounga about and watch movies. FLVS hasnt approved my online classes yet, so im basically just waiting for it all to begin so i can work hard and get it all done in time to graduate. I forgot to mention, by the way, that throughout the entire Disney trip Brady had been texting me. Just talking about randomness and flirting every single day, and this continued once i got home. Long story short, the next time we met up at Tiffany's house we made it official that we were dating. No more "MyLOL.net" for me! haha   But, again, since there is so much more i want to tell you about how i went from "Single" to "In a Relationship" in just a few days, i will save it for a separate blog. Dont worry, ill do a blog on my annoying hair, too. lol

Ive grown more and more anxious and excited about driving each day. I feel a thousand times more comfortable than when i first started, and no longer fear night driving, driving in rain, long trips, or 4 way intersections. lol  Parking is still a bit iffy and i still need some practice staying in the center of my lane, but besides that all systems are GO! These last few days, especially, i have been just itching to get on the road. I pre-set all my own radio stations in my car, had my own key made, burned 2 cd's titled "Christy Car Jams", and have been actively hunting for keychains, bumper stickers, and fuzzy dice. The PT Cruiser is officially mine. The only problem is i STILL have to ask an adult to sit in the front with me when i drive. Bummer! haha  Grandma's too lazy to pry herself out of her computer chair, so i usually have to wait until the 'rents get home, in which case they might be tired or annoyed from a long day's work. With any luck, though, my driver's test will be taken next week, so i have the freedom to go wherever the wind blows me (as long as i ask permission). haha


That about sums it up. Sorry i made you wait in eager suspense to hear all the news! lol  Keep on the lookout for 4 more coming posts coming VERY soon, hopefully sometime today. If not, remember that its hard to sneak on my brother's computer sometimes because mine wont work because of that dumb virus. Anyway, the blogs will be about 1) Disney, 2) Brady, 3) My Hair's increasing annoyance, and 4) Chelsea's Mom
I know #4 sounds like a joke, but its not, but i didnt want to talk about it in this blog because its kindof depressing and i want my first post back to end on a happy note. So without further ado, i bring this blog to a close. Thank you for sticking with me even when i slacked off, youre a real trooper  :)

Stay Nifty! ;)

Dear Pat Benatar: Job Hunting is a Battlefield!

Why the title? Because i felt like it :)   Hello my little minions! (or big minions; i dont discriminate! lol)  Today i will tell you alllll about my exciting, rush-filled day of filling out applications. You see, i am 17 and just finished my junior year, which means that next year i will be a senior, and senior year stuff costs a LOT of dough. Being that my parents arent fabulously wealthy like i someday hope to be, i decided to start taking matters into my own hands. Little did i know i may as well just be a professional job-application-filler-outer (it works!).

I was out getting groceries and things with my parental lobes (inside joke, courtesy of scott and psychology class), when i suddenly remembered one of my top summer resolutions: Get a job. So i scampered off to the Publix application center and typed all my information gleefully into their database. It took 20 minutes for the information portion and 30 minutes for the questionnaire. By the way, theres no seat! So after standing at this computer for almost an hour, trying to decide whether i should "Tell my supervisor about Mandy's irresponsible behavior" or "Offer to help Mandy teach Dwayne the safety procedures", i realized that this may be a little tougher than i thought.

Walmart was no better; before i could even BEGIN filling out the application it made me create a whole walmart account. Then it asked a bunch of bullcrap questions before i could start filling out any information! So infuriating! I actually had to stop filling it out halfway through (it had been more than an hour!) and finish it later online. When i got home, however, it was easier to fill out applications because the smaller the buisiness (IE: local craft store or retail teen clothing) the less you have to fill out and the more they save for the interview.

Times like these are what make me appreciate the little conveniances of modern living, though. Without the internet i wouldve had to personally go to all SIXTEEN places i applied for and fill out a resume for each! Furthermore, websites are becoming more and more unionized and efficient, because they all put the online applications in the SAME place on the home page (the very bottom of the screen; the "careers" button in small print), and they all make you click the SAME buttons to get to the easy-for-teen jobs (click "search jobs", type in your zip code or city, pick the store(s), then click "hourly wages" or "in store jobs"). Hopefully with all this hard work, i will get at least ONE interview, preferably from Walgreens, Walmart, Publix, Five Guys or the Starbuck's in Target.

Want to hear something phenomenal, though? As i was checking my email a few minutes ago for any replies from all these applications, (wishful thinking, i know, but it couldnt hurt) i had received 3 EXTRAORDINARY emails from people who read this blog! For one, i was shocked the other day when a few people simply clicked the "like" button on my blog link, but now i was getting ACTUAL feedback! If those people are reading this right now, they know who they are, but for those of you who arent them i will go into a little more detail and flatter them repeatedly for renewing my love for this humble hobby.

One was actually from "Jacob", a web designer who commented on the flow of my page and the spunk in my writing. Your comments were well thought out and oh-so-helpful, and i share many of your opinions on writing technique. Thanks for your thoughts, Jacob!   :)

The second was from another friendly web designer named Daphne. She gave me great feedback on my writing that i truly appreciate, as well as a personal invitation to HER new website! Im not sure if she wants this to be kept secret for now or not, because the site was by invitation only (lucky me!), but i WILL let you in on what the site is about. It's a networking site centered around fashion where people can post pics of different outfits and styles and allow other members to deem what's hot and what's not. I especially enjoyed this feature, because though i am not particularly big on fashion, EVERYONE loves to be a critic. The layout of the site was simple to maneuver, easy to figure out and explore, and very fun and innovative. Thank you, Daphne, and let me know when the site goes public so i can REALLY advertise for you! :)

This last message was quite blush-worthy, as it comes to me from a humble fan who simply loves my work. I am utterly flattered. Furthermore, this young man, "Andre", told me that i seemed interesting and fun to be around.. so he sort of asked me out. I know, so exciting! I wouldnt want to put his privacy at risk, but i will say that he's adorable, sweet, and interested in aviation and photography. I see nothing but endless possibilities with this guy, so wish me luck! And special thanks to you, Andre, cant wait to get you know you better  :)

All these emails made me wonder: Are there others who wish to comment on my site? Do they want to write me something but dont feel like opening a blogger account, much in the same way i dont have a youtube account? Well heres my solution! Within the next few days (probably today.. probably right after im done writing this), i will find some creative way to make my email address more prominent for all you lovely readers out there, whether it be a separate page or an altered logo pic (probably the latter). This way, all you brilliant fans can comment to your heart's content! Maybe if YOU have a crush on me, too, you can joust with Sir Andre for my love! ;)  lol  Until then , here's my personal email address if you just become to antsy to wait: fredthenoodle37@yahoo.com

Stay Productive!  ;)

The Party Continues..

As i woke up this morning, i really started to get to know more and more about the leftover party guests around me. Mystic turned out to be a master burper, extremely witty, a beast on Rock Band drums, and best friends with Jackie. Brady plays guitar (and Rock Band guitar), has excellent taste in music, is funny and crazy and is used to being the only guy in this group of girls he calls "The Estrogen Ocean". Jackie doesnt even have a "lightbulb" for a brain, the group jokes, and it is really more of a candle. She constantly forgets what she's doing, even when she's on her way to the bathroom. She's the lovable blonde of the group.

Once everyone started getting out of bed, we decided to go to the mall and hang out, so all 5 of us piled into Mystic's car and drove of into the sunset. Since i was in the middle, i got to listen to whatever everyone was jammin to on the radio as well as what Brady was kind enough to share with me on his ipod, such as "Korn" and "lmfao". Yay for me! :)  When we finally got there, i won a personal bet to myself that at least one person would drag us to the anime section of Books-A-Million, since this is apparently the "cool" thing to do that happens to me every time i go to the mall with a group. Where's my bookie when i need him! lol

We walked aimlessly around till we discovered a clothing store we liked; or rather, that the GIRLS in the group liked. lol  Poor Brady had to stand around dawdling while we gabbed about clothes. I think i cheered him and everyone else up a bit, though, when i tried on this weird jumpsuit that looked like a hero costume. "Have no fear, 'Platinum Plush' is here!!" Im not makin this up, that's what was written on the front of the costume! Needless to say, i'll be going back for it later! lol

So we walked around, doing other unimportant things, and ate and browsed some more. Jackie and Mystic bought matching giant keys from Claire's so they could use them for their trademark best friend catchphrase, "Stick me!". Long story short, when something awesome happens at home, they say it and tap their Rock Band drumsticks together, but since they cant bring those everyowhere, they got the keys to use as replacements.......... I love my weird new friends  :)

Stay Unique!  ;)

Woot! Woot!

Dat's right, you've stumbled into a PARTY BLOG!!! lol   Today Scott picked me up for this surprise party that he helped plan for our friend Tiffany. PS: i accidentally almost blew our cover a few days ago when i saw her and said:

 "Hey, Tiff, cant wait for the paarrrr..." "..What?" "..Uh.. You know, the party?" "Huh?" "Ohhhh, my bad, i meant the OTHER Tiffany. You know, from the play? Yeah, SHE'S havin a party. Phew!" lol  Im so lame  :)

Let me fill you in on the Who's Who of party go-ers:
-Me!
-Scott
-Tiffany (duh)
-Tiff's mom
-Tiff's sister, Jackie
-Tiff's Aunt(?) Tina
-Tiff's Cousin(?) Daniel, 8 yrs old and adorable
-Mystic (yes, thats her real name. Arent YOU jealous)
-Brittany, the hyper, lovable neighbor
-Brady
-Luz
-Cody
-Amanda
-Jackie's BF, John

It was a very loud party, and half of our time was wasted trying to get everybody to shut up and pay attention. Either way, we played Taboo like champs (my team won!). I spent a lot of game time trash-talking Daniel because it wasnt fair that "The Cute Dog", Marshmallow, was on their team. Every now and then we got Baby Girl or Sandy on our side, though, so it evened out. lol   We broke out the Dance Dance Revolution mats a little later and then the party REALLY started! I pretty much suck at DDR, but there was some serious skills out there as i watched from the couch and sang along. The funny thing is that i was told it was gonna be a pool party, so i was wearing just my bathing suit with nothing else but some short shorts and a loosely tied-up shirt over it. Then it rained. Since i didnt bring anything else to wear, i was stuck in "Beach Barbie" mode all night. Near the end there was some drama because Scott couldnt relax very well and kept saying he was mad at everyone for wasting so much time. Furthermore, Brittany kept snuggling and cuddling all up on Brady, because she obviously likes him, but he's dating someone. Regardless, things settled down as more guests began to leave.

They asked if i could spend the night, and i gladly accepted. After everyone left it was just Tiff and her family, Brady, Mystic, and me. They set up Rock Band and started jammin out because they all knew all the songs because they had all played so many times together. I didnt know many of the songs. Of everyone there, i was "the new guy", becuase this was only my first time in my house while everyone else was rockin, BFF style. This situation was a little bit awkward at some moments, but for the most part i was kind of excited to be so eagerly accepted into the group. Daniel follwed me around like a little puppy dog, which was adorable and sweet and funny all at once. He kept asking me to watch him or play with him, and no matter how many times i switched seats he just bounced right along with me. He even follwed me to get a drink!  :)  He has some kind of sickness where he gets mucus stuck in his chest, so he had to play these games on the computer while wearing this vest thing that vibrated constantly to release the blockage, almost like burping a baby. Minus the mucus, he reminds me a lot of my cousin, Kody.

As it got later and we all started winding down for bed, they set up "I-Spy", a comedy i had never seen, and watched until the wee hours of the night. I had a weird dream about Brady trying to hit on me and 2 random friends of mine, so it made me want to slap him when i woke up. lol  Wonder what tomorrow will bring...

Stay the Life of the Party!  ;)

All Aboard! - The Rollercoaster of Random Topics

That's right, you get TWO blogs today AND  a cool title! WHOO!! Feel the rush? ;D  lol  This evening we will be talking about...

-oprah magazine
-stride's special mystery flavor
-ketchup and ramen
-cool new bands
-secret admirers

Let's Git 'Er Done, shall we? (i love how those are so conflicting)  Alrighty, Oprah Magazine. Though i gotta respect a woman who's catchy company name, "Harpo", is just her name in reverse, i gotta say i dont usually read her magazine. Let's face it, who's on the cover of EVERY issue? (Hint: Oprah!) But either way, i was surprised to find an issue that truly titillated me. (caught my attention, pervs, look it up! lol) There was this quiz inside that i found quite interesting, entitled something like "How to Be the Person you Were Meant to Be". It listed a series of statements that you were to label 0-5 based on level of true-ness. You then score each section and find the corresponding personality type based on which section got the most points. Apparently, im adventurous, caring, intellectual, and entertaining. I find it funny how accurate the jobs they advised are: teacher, volunteer, traveler, entrepreneur, actress, advertiser, or blogger! Pretty cool, no?

Ok, now a more interesting topic: GUM! I spent like all night trying to figure out Stride's Mystery Flavor, and i can't seem to get a straight answer. All i know is that it smells and tastes citrus-y, so i think it may be lemon, orange, etc. Does anyone have a clue? Comment with your hypothesis  :)  Speaking of food, my friend Rick put ketchup in his ramen noodles today! EEEWW! Does anyone else do that? Is that normal?  I love ketchup as much as the next guy, but even i have limits.

Today i have also been doing a little bit of band browsing, and after getting inside tips from two good friends, i have found some very good ones. The first is Pomplamoose, which, all you language buffs know, means pomegranate in french. Why is that relevant? No one knows, but it IS a catchy name. Their songs are very pop-ish with a great beat and great sound. They like to utilize the marracas, as well, which adds an interesting flare to their style and rythm. Totally my kind of music; You should look them up  ;)  Next is Flight of The Conchords, which are apparently a popular group in some circles, though i have never had the pleasure of hearing them till now. I like their beat, as well, and their musical "flavor" greatly resembles an oldies rock group, which i always find intriguing; almost in the same way Phoenix makes me think of the 60's. What makes them even more unique is their fabulous humor. In one particular song, they began to sing about sexy hermaphrodites. I almost died laughing  :)

This last topic is probably the most interesting, but it may end up being a rant, so be warned. The weirdest thing happened to me today, and even now i can honestly say i never EVER saw it coming. There's this guy that i was in our last musical with, but we never talked more than 2 words to each other during the play, and that was fine with me because we both had our own lives going on. I went to a friend's party the other day (Lyquyen's party, where i said i got stuffed) and he was there. She invited him because she knew him too, and probably talked to him more than me, but it was nice to see him outside of school, i guess. He seemed a little more open and friendly. The next day he left me a random message saying "That was fun hanging out. We should do it again sometime ;) ". Kindof suspicious already, but i gave him the benefit of the doubt and assumed it was just his way of being friendly. I never messaged back, simply because i thought nothing of it and it slipped my mind.

Today i got an IM from him out of the blue asking how i was, etc, just basic small talk. We had a friendly chat, though he was acting pretty flirtatious. Again, we had never talked or flirted in person, even at the party, so i assumed he was just naturaully charismatic or something. I made an excuse to go, saying i had to eat lunch, so he asked to txt. I was a little suspicious, but didnt see any harm in it, so i acquiesced. He was txting and txting away, and since i was bored and just stuck doing laundry, i appreciated something to do. But then he was even MORE flirtatious, to the point where i started thinking "Maybe he ISNT just bein friendly, because this is a little excessive". So i casually asked him "Are you trying to be flirty, or is it just on accident?", that way its not too offensive if he sincerely didnt mean to act like that.

But nope, sadly i was 100% right, he was flirting with me. He told me he thought i was interesting and attractive and that he obviously liked me. My first reaction? AHHHHHH!!!!! I was freaked out! Not just because id never really thought of him that way, but because it literally came out of NOWHERE! Im not exaggerating, here, we had hardly ever talked before, and even at the party he wasnt flirtatious, just neutral. So i told him that and he said "yeah, i know, but i like to watch people and learn about them, even if we dont talk. sorry you were a victim ;)" . So im like AHHH!! again because this wasnt a new development, hes apparently liked me for a little while. When i asked he said "The first time i heard you sing in the chorus room pretty much did it for me"...... AHHHHH!! Thats a REALLY long time, like months!

So i officially had a cow and flipped out and called my bff and didnt know what to do because i was confused and didnt want to hurt his feelings but it was all still too sudden. She didnt have much to say, so i just kept stressfully folding clothes and muttering to myself until i got up the courage to tell him "Sorry, but i really dont think i like you as anything more than a friend." He seemed to take ok and he said he understood, and yet he STILL has yet to stop flirting, so idk what on earth to do anymore. Why is it ALWAYS the wrong guy that likes me? Cant i get a break and just once like a nice, funny guy who likes me back? Life confuses the hell out of me, but what else is new.

Stay Utterly Hopeless!  ;)
