SPIRIT WEEK & HOMECOMING!

This past week was the best and worst of my life :) Let me explain...

It was amazing because it was Spirit Week. We show school spirit and get ready for homecoming :) Friday was the pep rally and it was so much fun! I am now an upperclassman so my class got to go to the VARSITY PEP RALLY!!!! It was so much fun. We spelled out "MUSTANGS" and yelled out "MUSTANG PRIDE!" and we sang out fight song. Don't ask me to tell it to you because I have NO idea what it is... the only part I know is "Fight, Fight, Fight!"

The homecoming game was insanely thrilling. We recently got a turf instead of grass for our field and it looked sooo pretty. We beat the other team 36-6! We pummled them into the ground! It was fantastic! Our marching band was amazing, the cheerleaders were peppy, and it was freezing which made everything more exciting.

The dance was last night and it was so much fun! The DJ sucked though :P HE DIDN'T PLAY THE CHACHA SLIDE. WHAT KIND OF DJ DOESN'T PLAY THE CHACHA SLIDE?! He did play Gangnam Style though :) That was hilarious!

When the homecoming court came out to announce the king & queen, it felt like the Yule Ball in the Goblet of Fire (HP). We all stood in parallel lines and watched them walk down. They even took the first dance like at the Yule Ball!

I have sparkles EVERYWHERE. The theme was "Wright, Camera, Action!" and the seniors in charge of the dance decorated the gym like the Hollywood walk of fame. Everyone's names were on stars on the walls and the homecoming court had stars taped to the floor. It was incredible. My friend Olivia made one of the camera props and she said that she made the one that looked like a microwave xD

It was so much fun :)

And today is Sunday :) I woke up at 7:30 to a text from Austin :) I sent him pictures last night of how I looked and he said I looked beautiful and he wished he was there with me <3 He is so sweet, you guys. I like him so so so much. And if you know him, hands off, he's mine ;)

Well I need to go take a shower because I have an entire can of hairspray in my hair (no thanks to my sister, who curled it) and I feel gross from last night ;p

Probably Annoying My Friends By Now

I know I posted yesterday but OMG A SECOND POST IN A ROW. WHHHAAAAT?

Calm down guys, it's okay! I just wanted to say that I am really happy right now :) I honestly don't think anything could make me upset right now!

Yes, yes, it's because of Austin :) I'm absolutely sure that my friends are sick of it.

But see, the way I see it, I have all this happy adrenaline running through my veins, and since I can't start sprinting or doing jumping jacks or screaming to the heavens during school, well, what am I supposed to do but never shut up?

When I'm happy, genuinely happy, all I want to do is share that happiness with everyone and anyone. I must be annoying because I get that look from people like "oh my gosh is she ever going to shut the heck up?" nope. I probably won't. Until Sunday :)

Here's how the next few weeks are playing out;

10/9: role swap day for spirit week (oh yeah, it's spirit week at my school which is basically a week of wearing costumes to pretend we have school pride)
10/10: flashback day for spirit week & rehearsals
10/11: twin day & LAST SESSION OF SAT PREP WHOOHOO!!!!
10/12: spirit day/pep rally day!!! (Best day of the whole week.) oh and the homecoming game :)
10/13: homecoming!!!!!!!!!
10/14: finally Sunday and I can see Austin <3
10/15: boring old Monday. Yay.
10/16: FIELD TRIP DAY! (it's a German field trip where we go and do activities that are German-culture related and then see an awesome concert by this German band, Artig. Look them up on YouTube they're sooooo good. Look up "Lauf Mit Mir." that means "run with me")
10/17: rehearsals
10/18: kaitlyn's birthday!!!! Yay!!!!! I love birthdays, even of they're not my own!
10/19: NOOO SCHOOL! :D 3 day weekend, oh yeah!

So as you can see, I can't wait for this weekend! I haven't been to any football games this year (tear :'( ) and I'm finally going to the homecoming game. Maybe I can convince Austin to come...

I'm even more excited for homecoming! Carrie, me, and her friend Ray are going together. We're taking pictures at Carrie's before the dance and then Ray's grandfather is driving us to the dance in his hot rod :o

Then comes Sunday and I'm equally as excited for that as homecoming and the game combined!!! I'm crazy. I'm an absolute crazy person.

<3

Him <3

I cannot stop smiling. At all.

Have you ever met someone that just made you so unbelievably happy that all you want to do is never let them go? That's Austin :)

Austin is a boy who lives in my neighborhood (I mentioned him in my last post) and we hung out basically all weekend. We're talking right now and I am so giddy :) I'm giddy with anticipation and happiness and excitement.

All I want to do is run around the block 17 times to get rid of all this adrenaline because it's 10 o'clock and I have school tomorrow!!!! I can't sleep!!!!

He's so nice and funny and respectful and amazing and wonderful and handsome :)

I wish the weekend wasn't ending :( he's not going to be here on Saturday but he's going to be here Sunday and we're going to hang out again :D

We're going to eventually run out of stuff to talk about. Most of our conversations are completely random.

Today we hung out with Carrie and it was fun :) he was flirting with me and I was flirting back ;) we were sitting next to each other on a giant bean bag chair in Carrie's basement. He kept pushing me so I kept pushing him back. Eventually we were just rocking back and forth. Then Carrie decides to say "you know she's ticklish right?" and that kind of scares me a little bit because I am VERY ticklish. He says "really? Where?" and she says "on her sides." and that starts to scare me even more because we're sitting shoulder to shoulder and I'm totally vulnerable. He got me :p it was funny though. If I hadn't been do terrified :)

Well I just can't contain myself. I'm gonna try and sleep but it's not going to work. I just know its not.

Live While We're Young

Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy,Till we see the sun,I know we only met but let's pretend it's loveAnd never, never, neverStop for anyone,Tonight let's get some,AND LIVE WHILE WE'RE YOUNG!<333 One Direction, oh my gosh, you guys! Best video & song yet, I'd say! :)

The last few weeks have been... rough. Long story short, my dad was working on a project for a long time (sometimes he wouldn't get home until 2 in the morning). He's been home for the last week and a half, and we've been spending a lot of time driving because I haven't had much practice. So I've been spending every possible minute with him. Today was his first day back. He was in a bad mood this morning and he's sick. He came home about an hour ago because he was too sick to work, but he still had to go. I know I shouldn't be happy that he's sick, but I like him being here. Things are better with him at home. It gets so lonely here with just me and my mom and my sisters. Dad is like the man-glue that holds down the fort. I used to not feel safe when he wasn't home at night, but I've since gotten over that. Mom is perfectly capable of protecting us if a burgalar breaks in... right Mom?

Anyway, there's this guy... And he's really nice and respectful and funny... we hung out a big chunk of the day yesterday and we're going to hang out this weekend as well. He lives in my neighborhood but only when he's at his dads. He's really nice. :) I can't help but smile when I see him... is that cheesy?

I'm trying to figure out what to wear tomorrow... It's starting to get chilly where I live and I can't decide what to wear. It's at that weird stage in autumn where it's freezing cold in the morning and nice and warm in the afternoons when I'm walking home. It's weird. So I have trouble dressing accordingly.

I've decided that tomorrow I am going to wear dark wash jeans, a pink long sleeved blouse with printed flowers and swirls, and a black blazer. Not sure yet about shoes... what do you guys think? Brown flats or ugg boots or pink converse? I can't decide...

Miss Literati

Go to missliterati.com
I am on the sight as MeganRC. I posted a short story and the beginning of a sort of memoir. Check it out :)

Also I know it's been kind of forever since I've posted and I've been really inconsistent. Sorry about that to those of you who try to read this regularly :\ but that's why I have trouble posting.

I feel like I'm sending my diary out into the Internet for no reason. No one reads this. If you did, you'd comment...right?

Anyway.

I think I like this person. But he's my friend. Like a good friend. But I don't have his number and I don't know how to ask for it...isn't that crazy? I mean...he's my friend. It shouldn't be hard.

Whatever :3 gotta keep writing.

Oh and b t w, I kind of hate my English teacher. Okay. Now I'm done :)

<3

Hot Music

Or at least in my opinion :)

Albums:
Take Me Home - One Direction
(okay so I haven't actually heard it yet but I'm sure it'll be amazing!"

Songs:
She's So Mean - Matchbox Twenty
Everybody Talks - Neon Trees
Good Time - Owl City & CRJ
Give Your Heart a Break - Demo Lovato
One More Night - Maroon 5
Somebody I Used To Know - Gotye

I'll be the first to admit that I used to hate Somebody I Used To Know. But it has grown on me :)

Sorry it's been so long guys. It's been a rough few weeks. Personal reasons. Please don't ask.

But this music is what I've been listening to pretty much non-stop :)

Oh and it's not on this list because I've mentioned it before but WITH UR LOVE by Cher Lloyd is finally available on the USA iTunes :D so I bought it ;) now I can't listen to it all the time.

Second Day

I know it's a day late but Pretty Little Liars was on last night and I didn't have time to write this before it was 8 o'clock.

So here we go.

I woke up at 5:50 am and took a shower.
I got dressed. I wore jean shorts & a cream 3/4 sleeve shirt with multi-colored polka dots.
I had a pumpernickel bagel for breakfast.
Then I did my hair & makeup.
Then my friend drove me to school.
Then I opened my locker on the first try :)
B1- Environmental Science
~taught by Mr Kaumeyer. He's nice but I can already tell this class is going to be a bore. And we have to go outside for a bunch of classes. So I can't wear cute shoes on b days. Yay.
B2- Journalism
~taught by Mrs Sostak. She seems okay...basically it's a "we're going to publish the school paper in this class." instead of a learning class. Which is fine by me ;)
B3- Germannnnnnnnn :D
~taught by Frau <3 you guys have no idea how excited I was to get to German. It was what I was looking forward to all day. And it was so wonderful to be in there again. Frau said that there will be very little English being used in her class. It'll be difficult at first but I'm sure by the end we'll all be used to it!
B4- Trigonometry
~taught by Mr Gunter. Huzzah. He's like....a tall glass of lemonade on Memorial Day. And by that I mean he's very refreshing. He's really funny, easy going, and I can tell I'm going to have a fun time in his class. He's just that kind of person. He's kind of like Mr Griff in that aspect. Gunter said he's treating this honors math class as if it was AP. Meaning, most of our grades are going to come out of tests and quizzes instead of home works and class works.

I'm really excited for tomorrow. B Days are good because there's only one class that I really don't like too much and that's enviro. But it's still early in the year. I don't know. :)

<3

First Day

Today is my first day of school!!! Gahhhh I'm a junior!!!!!

I'm kind of getting ready now so I'll tell later in detail ;)

<3

Sorry

Soorrrryyyy everybody :( the last few weeks have been really hard and busy.

I went to the beach, got sick at the beach and had to go home early, my dad started a new project at work (so he hasn't been getting home till 9ish every night), my moms been training a new lady at her work. I've been doing a lot of babysitting. And doing homework. I have an essay due in 6 days. Yay. :p

School starts next week. One week. From now. I'm so scared. Being a junior is going to be overwhelming. I just know it. I have no classes with Kaitlyn. I have German with Carrie. And that's pretty much it. I know a few other people who are in my classes but none that I'm super duper close with. Actually. That's not true. Jean is in my creative writing II class :D

So I have to go read about Fredrick Douglass. Bye.

It's Been A While

Sorry it's been so long guys :P

But I have all kinds of news!

First, happy first of August. There are now 27 days until I'm officially a junior :o I've been on this blog since before I started 9th grade...wow. That's two while years. It seems like so much shorter.

It's my mommy's birthday today!!!! Wish her a happy day in the comments ;)) me and my sisters made her some jewelry (a bracelet and a ring. Meredith also wove her a yarn anklet) and made cards. She was so happy :) she really liked the ring!

Also. I'M GOING TO THE BEACH!!!! August 10-13th we are going to the beach!!! You guys can seriously not understand how excited I am. We haven't been to the beach in like 2 or 3 years. I posted about it I think. I got really bad sunburn :p

But anyway. I am sooo excited. Ocean City, here I come!!!

We're gonna stay at our friend's beach house right by the ocean. It's small but quaint :) it's so cute!!

What else...

I'm still not finished with my essays for school. I'm not even finished with the books :\ I'm almost halfway finished with Huck Finn. I'm having trouble getting into it. The other book is only 100 pgs so I'm not too worried about that one. The essays are due Aug 24. So I still have a month. Sigh.

Do you ever hear a song on the radio and when you get home you can't remember what it's called? I hate that.

Oh. Go look up 'Bad For Me' by Megan and Liz on YouTube or iTunes. It's, like, my new favorite song :)
