A New Day!

Happy Monday, world! Ha, if only! How was your Monday, March 7, 2011? Or as they say in German: Montag, siebte Marz (I don't know how to say numbers in the thousands yet... I'm only in German I).

Sooo I was cleaning my room today after school and after my homework was done and I found out that I have a desk :) Well, I always knew, but now I can see it! And I found my Amazon Kindle charger, && I found all of my silly bandz! I don't know how big those were where you guys live, but here in MD, they were HUGE! They left as quickly as they came though :\

So I started a new story. I know that's risky, considering it's so close to my deadline for RR but I couldn't help myself! Basically it's going to be my life's story told as is from me but the character's names will be different. For example, my best friend's name is Carrie. In the story, her name is Hallie. See? I just don't know what MY name should be yet... I'm stuck between:
1 - Julianna
2 - Heather
3 - Veronica
4 - Bailey
Choose for me????? I love all of these names. I swear, when I have kids, it's gonna be a hassle to choose a name because there are so many pretty ones out there! Even boy's names! I love the names Grant, Evan, and Joel. I mean, they're just pretty names!!!

Soo here's something you didn't know about me. I cannot drink water and walk at the same time. To tell you the truth, I didn't even know that until last Friday when I was thirsty while walking home and I started choking on my water... Aren't I a genius???? :)

Well, I gotta jump. My sister has dance and I am going to take this as an opportunity to try and memorize my sonnet for Drama. Buh-bye!

Brand New Page :)

Hey guys, I know I just posted but I changed the page layout... I thought this looked cooler :) Also, it felt bland so I thought we needed a change :)

Also : Look up the song "Stuck in the Moment" by Justin Bieber. I don't care if you are not a Belieber but I am and I love this song. It's catchy and I love the message.

<3

It's been better...

Hey guys. Sorry I've been MIA lately. Its just been... difficult lately. I've been kind of depressed... For no reason in particular. I've been trying to write but its been sort of hard. I'm not overwhelmed by schoolwork or anything... I just never seem to have the time... Sorry.

I'm beginning to question my abilities. I never finish anything. How the hell am I supposed to be able to write an entire novel with less than 4 months until my deadline when I only have about 90 pages of Royal Runaway finished? And don't even get me started on how long it's going to take me to edit and revise this thing because trust me, I'll be rewriting half of it I'm expecting.

Well, I'll try harder guys. I wish I had more readers, but those of you fateful readers are the ones I know still care a little bit ;)

ein Glas Apfelsaft!

Guten Tag! Ich mochte ein Glas Apfelsaft! And for those of you who don't speak German, that means "I would like a glass of apple juice!" I am currently at my moms computer drinking a juice box and eating goldfish (the snack that smiles back, not the actual fish)while my dad builds a fire. Typical Saturday at my house.

My sister had a dance competition today. Her team won award for "Best Rookie Performance" and "Best Smiles" and she's all upset :P Sure they didn't get a trophy but they got a plaque to hang in their studio! They were sooo good too! They danced to "At The Hop" :D There were only two other rookie competetors and one of the dances was really stupid. They were all dressed up like swans. And they won a Platinum for "Most Creative Dance" (basically they won first place of the rookie division).

Sooo who's ready for SUPER BOWL SUNDAY?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!! I AM!!!!!! GOOOO STEELERS! Sorry to my readers who are rooting for the Packers, but I am a full-out STEELERS girl :D

I got new makeup :) It's by a company called BareMinerals and its all natural stuff. All natural ingredients, etc! I love it soooo much! And I got this sparkly eyeshadow... not like obnoxious sparkly (like some high school girls I know...) but subtle sparkly :) I love it so so so so much!

OH MY GOSH my dad just turned on Ice Age! DUMBEST MOVIE EVER. The only part that's funny is the stupid squirrel who thinks he can have the acorn :)

My sister just walked up... she thinks she's so tough :D

SNOW DAYS :P

Yes, that's right. My town got MORE SNOW. I may love getting days off so I can just sit around and read and write all day, but I'm getting tired of it. We're going to have to make all these days up in June anyway! I'd rather have no snow days and a super long summer break than a bunch of snow days and summer vacay not start until June 20th. I mean come on! Yeah, today we really couldn't have any school because there's like 7 inches of snow on the ground... but last time there was like 3 inches and we got a day off and a delay. UGH UGH UGH!

So as most of you know I LOVEEEE Harry Potter. A lot. So this weekend I have been rereading them. I'm on number 5 (Order of the Phoenix) and I forgot how much better it is from the movie! :D

This is one of those instances where I wish I was an adult and living in my NYC apartment watching the snow fall from my bay window overlooking the city... (I can have dreams!) sitting, reading, and sipping on hot chocolate while a fire burns in my stove (or fireplace... I haven't decided yet).

I AM SO BORED. I've been reading since like 1 o'clock and its 2:35 right now. Ugh.

OH! I got slippers :) They are actually like booties. They're green and brown with stripes and little pompoms! They have fur on the inside and I got them on Saturday and I have been unable to take them off since! Well, except for sleeping and showering... and when I leave the house to go somewhere but that's beside the point! THEY ARE AWESOMEEEE!!!

I don't know how many of you watch TLC but for the last 8 weeksthehas been a show called Next Great Baker and I have been watching it... I wanted Megan to win but Dana won :((((

No Words Can Describe My Emotions Right Now.

1) This sexist ball hog in gym today wouldn't pass the basketball to any of his girl team mates. We were always open too.
2) This dude in my drama class hates me and we're going to fail our 7 Deadly Sins script/skit thing because he refuses to talk to me.
3) I keep slipping on ice.
4) My neighbor is a "foster-dog-mom" (she takes in orphaned or abandoned dogs from the humane society until they get adopted) and she got two new pit bull puppies. They are sisters and they are sooooo adorable! One of them bites a lot, but the other one is pushy :) They were ripping each other apart when I went to my neighbor's house to see them. Their faces are soooo cute!!!! I want a puppy ;(

*S*N*O*W*

IT SNOWED!!! Yeah, only like 3 inches but who cares! IT SNOWED! We had off yesterday and today we had a 2-hour delay! Oh it was wonderful :) On Wednesday, I slept till 9 (like it was a weekend) and watched TV, wrote a little, and read. Then around 4:30, we went to look for snowboots for me and my littlest sister. Of course, we were out of luck. We went to like 4 places (including the mall!) and couldn't find ANYTHING that I liked or would wear in public. We did find this one pair of boots that were kind of like rainboots because they were all rubbery, but when I tried them on, they were soooo uncomfortable. If you know the boots I'm talking about and you like them, sorry, but they felt really weird on my feet!

This morning I found out we had a delay at 5:30 IN THE MORNING. I was sort of pissed off because it was so early but I was happy because I could sleep an extra 2 hours :) We had all shortened classes (except for 3rd block, when we had lunch) and I loved it. Basically, I had English where we got a poetry assignment (read a poetry book), I had Science where we took a quiz that was so easy I'm 99% sure I got an A, I had Amer Gov where I had the full period but we just went over the study guide for our midterm, and I had Math where we sat and did worksheets while Mrs. Huber talked. It was soooo great! Like seriously, I wish every school day was only 5 hours long!

The only hard part about today; walking to school. There was ice on the road by my house and we were pretty much just ice skating, but harder. Jeff and Quentin were wearing sneakers and I was wearing my BearPaw boots. I was the one who's jeans didn't get wet, but I was the one who was most careful because I am deathly afraid of ice (and heights, and staircases, and falling, and hurting myself). I was atleast 5 steps behind them the entire way to school. Which was find considering all they talked about what COD or Black Ops or whatever the heck that video game is called.

Oops, I just remembered I have a project due tomorrow in German so I gotta go do that! Tootles!

:-)

Greetings fellow lifeforms! Sorry I've been MIA for the past few weeks. I've been busy. What with Christmas and New Years and getting back into the swing of school... it's just a bit overwhelming. I've only been back in school for a week and I can already say, I can't wait till college.

There's this...person... in my drama class who has been...uncivilized towards me. It's getting irritating and I've actually been crying myself to sleep because he's being so mean to me. I'm SCARED to go to school because of him. He's spreading around rumors about me so I wouldn't be surprised if everyone hates me soon enough. That's probably exactly what he wants. But I'm going to the guidance counselor tomorrow to talk about it (my mom is making me... I convinced her that if she went and talked to my drama teacher, things would only get worse!). I'm hoping I'll be able to steer away from names (mostly because I don't want to cause more conflict) but we'll see.

I haven't been writing for a while... RR is 74 pages long! Only 151 more days until my deadline. I have to keep up with it or else it'll never get done!

I missed the deadline for the Young Author's Contest for my county too. Oh well... i don't know if "Fieldsgrove" was going anywhere, anyway. I know I could've won if I had just finished it but... I didn't :(

I got an AMAZON KINDLE for Christmas!!!! AHH!!!! It's my new favorite toy ;) I have four books on it:
1) The Princess Bride
2) The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe
3) The Complete Works of William Shakespeare
4) A Christmas Carol

I finished TPB and the works of Shakespeare I'm taking one play at a time. I'm still on "All's Well That Ends Well" but soon enough I'll be done! :D

I really wanted to stay home today (I had cramps plus I got sick last night from bad food) but my mom said no. I had to go to school. Yet she let my sister stay home who had a "really bad tummy ache." Yeah she's six but I was sick last night, I was up until four AM trying to fall asleep, and I have sh!t going on at school! I deserve a day off too! Of course, I have already missed three days this year... and only one of them was legitimate, but who cares! I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE SCHOOL.

But I can't change anything. The only thing I can do is remember that I have good friends who care about me and that will make all the difference.

Also I can't help who hates me and who chooses to believe such lies ;)

50th Post! :D

HAPPY 50TH POST EVERYBODY! Yes, that's right. This is my 50th ever post on megsterrachel.blogspot.com and lemme say, I'm proud to say that I've even kept up with it... usually I just give up when I forget about it. But this is different... I feel like maybe some publisher or editor is reading my stories and poems and wanting to publish something... So thanks ;)

I have continued writing Runaway Royalty. It's 75 pages right now!!! It's getting really good... I wish I could figure out how to attach a link for you to read it because it's so long...... I will figure it out though! It's really getting good! But that's just my opinion :)

I have been trying for the last 15 mins to find a website that will let me upload my story and all I have to do is put a link... but alas, none could be found :P This is what we get from the internet :P

Today SUCKED. Just saying. I just had an all together terrible day. But I'm over it because tomorrow should be a good day! :)

3 more school day's until break! I am so excited, so all of you that got out last week, just let me be happy :D :D :D :D

I get out on Thursday... it's still gonna be a long week but I'll manage :) :)

I have to go... Love you all!

HAPPY HANUKKAH!!!!!

Happy Hanukkah everyone! Sorry I haven't been on in like FOREVER but you know how life can be ;) I have MANNNNNY things to say, but before I do, I have a few words of encouragment.
1) ponytail
2) french toast
3) shift keys

Thank you.

Okay, so the past few weeks have been BRUTAL. Yes, I mean BRUTAL!!!!!!!! My math teacher still hates me, my Amer Gov teacher is still too strict, and gym... well gym would be absolutely UNBEARABLE if it wasn't for the fact that I know I only have it until January 28th. Then I get health with Mr. Harvey! YAY :)

Here's what I got for Hanukkah:
~ a pretty bracelet with the phrase "fall down seven times, stand up eight" engraved on it
~ an ADORABLE sweater: its green with white patterned designs and it has a tie around the waist and its sooooooo cute!
~ 3 DVDs: "The Breakup", "How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days", and "The Wedding Singer"
~ a group gift... TOY STORY 3 :)
~ iTunes gift cards :D

Yeahh, when you get older, you don't usually get a present every night. It was every other night for me this year :) But that's okay because they were awesome gifts!!!! <3

I. Hate. High School. Like seriously? I HATE IT. With a passion. I don't know if it's just because I am a freshmen and I have no choice in what classes I take (except for one elective) or if I'm just allergic to school. Either way, it sucks.

Also, some other stuff has been going on (kinda private... no actually, really private.) that I can't really share with you but I will tell you this; Doctors are IDIOTS. I had to get like 6 blood tests in the last 2 months (at the least) and twice they lost the vile of my blood and had to do another test! UGH I mean, how dumb do you have to be to LOSE a girl's blood, for crying out loud?! Also, I kept getting mean nurses who had no compassion. I hate blood tests and every nurse didn't seem to give a rat's butt about it. One lady even started moving the needle around INSIDE MY ARM. It hurt reallllly bad. I mean, yeah, blood tests don't really hurt but this lady was just a jerk :P

I haven't really been writing too much... too much school work... but I am reading this Edgar Allen Poe short story for English and it's really disturbing. Just thought I'd share that tidbit with ya ;)

Love to all, happy holidays!!!
