Hiya, hiya!! I really have nothing to say, but I've been bothered with the fact that I'm not updating this thing. So I figured I'd do it now, seeing as I've got nothing else to do.

The Fourth of July is coming soon! Wee!! I'm especially excited this year because I believe Becca, Darcy, and I are travelling down to good ol' Katie's house in the Cape! Yay!!! It has been exactly six months and about seven hours since we last saw our Katie H. I can't wait to see her!!!!! Weeeee!!!!!!

My sister is watching Even Stevens and Louis and Tauny just confessed their love for one another. Awww....I'm a wee bit teary eyed. Well, that's all for now folks. Later days!!!

I just saw a squiffy dash beneath that car!

I'm awfully snoozy right about now!! Yet I'm staying up late anyway because I DON'T CARE! MWAHAHHA! Today, I went to work, freaked out, got better, and came home. Then, I went to help my dear sister, Lindsey move into PCC!! I was so psyched to be there again! Even though I'm not going this year, haha!!! Well, as we were piling out of the car, Darcy ran over to us because she was helping her cousin Meghan move in, and so we both helped Lindsey bring up her stuff. Before we went into zee building though, the video guy came around and was like "Who wants to wave?" And we said "WE DO!" So we waved into the camera! Ha, we might be on the video yearbook this year!! Go figure, we finally get on it when we don't even go to PCC anymore. Hahah, it was awesome though. I saw all of my little first year friends from last year. Those lucky kids!! I feel bad though...The Hill was way better than lower campus, making my second year ten times better than first year. Maybe they'll like it though. Oh well, not my problem!

After the thrill of moving in, Darcy came over for a little while and we swam. It was fun! We brought La Darce home around 5:30, and I fell getting out of the car to help her bring in her stuff. I had suddenly become so exhausted. It must've been the heat or something. Anywho, my family and I went to the canal or something. I grew quite aggravated for some reason...everything the people around me were doing was irking me like there was no tomorrow!! I fell asleep for a while I think. I'm still rather snoozy. After some "family fun" down the cape or wherever we were, we came home and now here I am, boring you to no end once again. I'd be surprised if people actually read this. And now I shall leave you with...Shop at E-BAY! Woo.

My dog's barking is hurting my ears. And my head. It is so flipping loud and shrill, I'll be surprised if I can hear by the time I go to bed. Not that I can hear anyways, but now I can blame it on the dog!!

Today was my swim against breast cancer. I've always been really excited about doing it, but today was different. Don't get me wrong-I was so pumped. But I think that because cancer (not just breast cancer) has played such a prominent role in life for everyone this past year, maybe a little over, made the swim of more importance to me. I was surprised to find myself almost in tears as I watched the first swimmers dive into the pond, listening to the onlookers clap. This year has been so difficult for many of us, but when I saw all those people today, both the swimmers and the crowd applauding us as we came up to the shore, I knew, just for an instant, that eventually, cancer, whether it be breast, thyroid, pancreatic, lung, or lukemia, will be conquered. It could be a hundred years, it could be tomorrow. But, seeing so many people like I did today who are helping to make a difference and knowing how much money people pledged the swimmers for this event, astounds me. It'll be a long time before a cure is found, but as long as people are making the difference now, there's hope.

When we got home, we decided to go see Harry Potter. It was really funny this time; I picked up on things I never noticed the first time I saw it. My hand is starting to hurt, so I'm going to end this now. A very merry unbirthday to you all!! P.S. I got four water bottles at the breast cancer swim today!! One of them has a lime green cover on it!! yay!

I forgot to tell you all the "tragic" news: yesterday I was dumb and forgot to take of my Gogo Gadget watch from PCC when I dove into the pool yesterday. So now it's broken, kind of. There are little black lines popping up one the screen. It's actually kind of cool. I don't care if it's broken, I'm going to continue to wear it anyway.

Rarara?

Famous first words. Wa! That made no sense at all. But it's all good. Ayer, Darcy came over, and then Deidre called us and she came over as well. Something along those lines. We had quite the adventure. Then, we went for a swim, which was just woooooonderful. We ate dinner, and then Becca and Caragh came over. While Darcy, Becca, Deirdre, and I were awaiting Caragh's arrival, my awesome aunt Babs (some of you have met her) came to my house to drop my sister off, and she gave us stuffed animals!! She works with this lady who has Alzheimer's, and apparently she didn't want them anymore so Barbara took them and said she'd give them to the Salvation Army or something. But she gave them to us!! Hooray!! I love Babs; she's my favoritest aunt of all time. She's so cool and funny. You should see her with my dog, she goes absolutley nuts. She uses the weird puppy voice with him and he jumps all over her. It's the funniest thing. Then, if we bring the guinea pig or cat near her, she flips out and yells "Get it away from me!" Haha, it would be so funny to set a hamster loose in her bed or something. I bet she'd CRY! We waited around on my driveway some more for Caragh, then decided to go swimming again. It was kind of cold, but enjoyable. Anywho, we got cold by the time Caragh came and we went inside and hung out down in my basement for a few hours and just talked. What I love about my friends is that we can just talk for hours and hours. It's crazy. We never get bored. At least I don't. Haha. *shrug*

I'm kind of snoozy right now. Haha, did you like my words "snoozy"? I just used it to say I was "sleepy." But snoozy sounds way better, in my opinion. I think we're all going over Becca's today to help her unpack and whatnot. I have to go to work at 4. I also need to get goggles for my swim tomorrow because I think I threw mine all away after I quit swimming. Hopefully my dad will take me when he gets home from my sister's soccer tournament. Bla, I really hate soccer. But I'm not getting into that again. Haha. I'm going to go do something...now. Yes...something...err....I don't know.

RIP Chickie

As I was drying off outside a few moments ago, I was hanging out with the chickens. I noticed that there were only five for some reason. I called into my dad and he said he "had an accident on Saturday and thought everyone knew." He came outside on the deck with me and told me that one of the chickens had her head where the door to the crate they are staying in is, and he accidentally shut it on her. Poor, poor Chickie-pi. :(

Tacos!

Seasons greetings, all! I had eight tacos yesterday. Two off from my record..I'll beat it someday!! I also played a good ol' game of fockey last night. I was pleased with our team, we did a heck of a lot better than last week. Good work, girls!

I got a job at Trucchi's today. I start after July 4th sometime. Should be interesting. At least I'll get to work with people who are closer to me in age now, instead of hanging around all older people most of the time.

My last road lesson was today. I'm quite sad; road lessons were a lot of fun. Mr. G showed me pictures from his trip to San Francisco. They were...interesting, to say the least. Haha.

I just had some taco salad. I can't get enough of tacos. It's pretty disgusting when you think about it. Actually, you shouldn't even have to think about it. I think I'm going to go for a swim right now, and do laps so I'll be somewhat prepared for the breast cancer swim on saturday. I found out last night I might have to do the competitive swim so my dad can go to my sister's soccer game or something, which I'm not too happy about. Those people are fast! Oh well, I guess I can't worry about it. Later days, all!

Deleted Blog Entries

Don't you just hate it when you write a blog entry and then you accidentally hit a button and it gets deleted? Or maybe that doesn't happen to anyone else, and I'm just the biggest klutz to walk the earth...actually I AM the biggest klutz to walk on the planet. If there were an animal called a klutz, and it was going to go on Noah's Ark, that would be me. So I'm making this entry what it was going to be...(caragh said to add this in parenthesis)So I did because I love that girl!

Anywho, I saw Hyannis Sound this evening! They were awesome as usual!! Let me begin...at the beginning!! I got yelled at a lot by my mom today, I don't even know what it was about, I went to work, came home, changed, changed again, and then went to Darcy's. I was there for a wee bit, chatting with La Darce and Senorita Sly when Darcy's rad cousin, Melissa came! Hooray for Melissa!! We hung out for a few more minutes, and I nicknamed Darcy's mom the Flamingo Lady because of her love for flamingos. Anywho, Lorrie(spelling?) came along and picked up Darcy, Melissa, and I and we drove to pick up Nicole at the Middleboro Y. Then it was off to the Cape! We stopped to get ice cream at this really nifty place, and after that we went to the church where Hyannis Sound was performing. We stood around outside for a little while, criticizing all the stupid little teeny boppers there...it was fun making fun of people we didn't know. Haha. We went in a little bit after that and Hyannis Sound did their thang! They kicked butt!! They were so awesome!! I wish I had talent like that. Some of the guys were really cute!! They have this new kid named Paul...*drool* hahaha! After the show, Lorrie brought us to Micky Dee's where we got a wholesome meal of delicious and nutritious french fries. Ohhhhhh yea! I did some stargazing from the car. I just can't get enough of the sky! It never fails to amaze me! It brings back memories of pleasant times earlier this year. 'Twas a fun ride home! I had a really good time tonight, and hope we go back to see them soon!!!

Now I'm sitting here, probably boring all of you with this. My jaw hurts a lot. I have a dentist appointment this morning. And tomorrow night I have a field hockey game. Maybe this time I won't suck. Oh, yea, I'm uber excited because Darcy's coming to my swim on Saturday!! Hooray!! I'm so happy now, because my mom can't go due to soccerness, but now Darcy's going! Yay!! I can't wait to swim. I gotta get myself to the Y this week and practice so I dont sink like a rock when I get into that pond. Yeeeee-haw!!!

Happy Father's Day to everyone who is a father out there! I hope you are a good dad. If you're not then....stinks for your kids!

I really have nothing to write about. I'm just updating this because I have nothing better to do. I came downstairs this morning to find my dog on the table, harassing the cat who was sitting on one of the chairs. Madness, I tell you, ABSOLUTE MADNESS!! Soccer Mania are the only two words I can use to describe the going on's in my house. Every single flipping day of the year!! My parents are both at socccer games for several of my siblings. My dad is in one place and my mom is in another. It never stops, NEVER!! Life here is like a continuous soccer game. I despise soccer with every ounce of my ability to despise stuff. It's a horrible sport. Soccer runs my family's lives.

Last night it was really cool because it was a crescent moon, but you could kind of see the outline of the whole moon itself. It was really awesome. A nice night, last night. Very starry and clear. I think when I grow up I'm going to do something in NASA. Perhaps I will establish the first colony on Mars. I will be president of it. That would be purdy mullet rocking.

I have three bug bites on my foot. My dog is chucking stuff against the wall somehow. The grass is green. The sun is sort of neon carrot. I have bangs. There are five-hundred million, twenty-five thousand, six-hundred minutes in a year. I challenge you to figure out how many seconds there are!! Come on, it isn't that difficult. Whoever can tell me, I'll give you a prize. I love Australia. I love sloths even more. There's a rock in my shoe. Actually I'm not wearing any shoes. My fingernail needs to be filed because I could kill someone with it. I just scratched my toe. I want to go swimming. I am a Virgo. Hear me roar. When I take my glasses off of my face, I can see nothing that I wrote. It all looks like black dots on something. My eyes are a hopeless case. Thank God for stuff that helps me see. I love Spanish. My stomach just made a weird noise. The Verve has some really good-looking fellows in it. I'm kind of hungry. I'm going to join the Peace Corps. I still really don't know what the point of this update is. Could it be...that...I...love...



SLOTHS!!

First off, I would like to apologize for my horrible writing. I never proofread because I am way to sloth-like. I go back sometimes and read these pitiful entries and think "Why do I even have this stupid thing?" Yet I still continue to write in it. Ponder that.

So...THINGS! On Wednesday, I had a road lesson, and then I went to work from 3-4. On the way home, my mom and I saw this white thing in the road, moving in a really weird way. At first I thought it was a white plastic grocery bag. But as we drove closer, we saw that it was a gorgeous white dog. It had just gotten hit by a car, and its tail and one of its legs were moving in unimaginable ways. Mom stopped the car, and we got out. It stopped moving seconds after we jumped out of the car. A puddle of the brightest, reddest blood I had ever seen in my entire life was on the ground next to the dog's mouth. I just stood there in shock. I had never seen anything like it. It doesn't sound like such a big deal,I mean it was just a dog, right? But it was so horrible to watch something so innocent suffer like that. I could almost feel the pain it had been in, when we had seen it twisting moments before. I felt like crying. The guy who hit it went into the street, and was shaking the mangled corpse to see if there was any hope at salvaging the poor things life. Failing, he dragged the dog's limp body over to the sidewalk. I've had a headache ever since then. And I know there are more disturbing things that have happend, that are happening, and that will happen. But this has just been bothering me for the past few days.

Today, I had my fifth road lesson. Cool conversations with Mr. G. He's a neat guy. I went over to Darcy's to help her clean a little bit. She fed me Fajytas, and then her mom brought me home around six. I went swimming and got eaten alive by mosquitos, but it was fun anyway. Then I fell asleep in my mom's room. And now, here I am writing another boring blog entry to you fine people. And with that, I must go. I love sloths, and I love you all!

Night Swimming

Today was the last day of tenth grade. And it was probably one of the best days of tenth grade. It's a shame that every day couldn't be like this one, but there are always ups and downs. Anywho, all day at school I hung out with Becca, Darcy, Caragh, Jess, Mzatthew, and Johnny Perfume. We all invaded Mrs. B's room, and we helped her clean and stuff. It was a good time. After school, Mzatt took Becca, Darcy, Caragh, Deirdre, and I to Wendy's. We all piled into his car, and we began the long and adventurous journey to the king of all fast food places....Wendy's. I don't really know/care if Wendy's is the king of all fast food places. But we'll just say it is for now, okay? After eating a delicious and nutritious meal there, we headed on back to Mzatthew's house, which was a grand time to be had for all! We watched this amusing video that his dad had when he was a cop. It showed all of these people who had taken PCP. It was funny, I guess, but it left me feeling kind of sick to my stomach. Very sad. After that and some gruesome dead baby jokes, Mzatthew brung (YEA, THAT'S RIGHT BRUNG!) us gals back to Darcy's where we galloped for a while. My mum came to get me a little while after that.

I went home, threw on a bathing suit, and went swimming. (I've been wearing a tankini, guys!! This is the first time in about two or three years that my stomach has seen the light of day!) I discovered today that one of the few times where I am truly at peace with myself is when I'm swimming. Whether its rigorously working out (which I haven't done in a while, folks!) or just floating around and dangling my feet in the water, I just feel so calm. I love diving in, and swimming the whole length of the pool underwater. As I was doing this today, I was rocking out to the radio and then my favorite song of all time came on. There's nothing cooler than swimming while "Bittersweet Symphony" is on the radio. It was just really cool. Maybe sometime I will bring my CD with nothing but "Bittersweet Symphony" out there and listen to it.

After swimming for a wee while, I went to play field hockey. I played horribly, but that's alright. I haven't touched my field hockey stick since November 29th, 2003. That was the date of the last game I played. We got steamrolled as usual, but it was still fun. I came home, found out that we weren't going to see Shrek 2 tonight, took a shower to get de-sweatatized, and after getting clean I decided to go for another swim. It was kind of spooky out there by myself, but it was nice. I swam for a few minutes, and then just lay down on the pavement around my pool, and stargazed. It was really cool. I turned off all the lights in the pool area and just looked up in the sky. There's nothing I love more than a clear, starry night. It's one of the most amazing things to look up into that vast blackness, dotted with millions of little bright stars. It makes you feel so minuscule, but alive at the same time. It also makes you think, a lot. I know I've heard people say "Everything happens for a reason," before, but tonight, I don't know why, it finally clicked that everything DOES happen for a reason. I guess this one-on-one time with myself has given me time to grow up, I guess. It's nice.







I love summer.

Swim!

Hey, I forgot to mention: if any of you are interested, sponsor me Against the Tide! It's a one mile swim I'm doing in a few weeks against breast cancer. I'm kind of bummed out because I just found out my mum won't be able to go because she'll be at some soccer tournament thing. But if any of you want to donate money, whether its five cents or five dollars, it would be greatly appreciated. This is an awesome cause, and your donation will make a difference in someone's life. Thanksssss a bunch amigos!!!

SLOTHS

I officially declare my love for sloths. And John Smith. I think Mel Gibson is so much more attractive as a cartoon. *Dreamy Sigh* I'm watching Pocahontas right now, in case you didn't get that already. Yes, so anyway sloths. They are pretty funny. I am yet to see one, but I'm going to go look up a picture of one later on. My dad was telling me this humorous story earlier. He came into the house, all excited because he was going to show me this knife that he found in a field when he was a kid. He has all of this memorabiela from his childhood and he gets all happy when we let him talk about it. So, he was telling us how he used to play in these fields as a kid, and how one day he found a knife, just sticking up in the ground.. He never knew who that knife belonged to, but he said, "I always had an idea of who owned it. One day, we heard a 'Splat, splat' coming from up in this tree, and we saw *inserts some random person's name who I forget now here* sitting up there, taking a poop!" I laughed, and laughed and laughed when he told me this. I don't know why, but it was so funny at the time. It made me wonder about my father. It also reminded me of a sloth, because I know that they only get out of their trees every two weeks to poop. Hahahaha. Well, I'm off to go find a picture of a sloth now. OPERATION STEALTH IS BEING PUT INTO ACTION IN APPROXIMATLEY EIGHT HOURS AND TWENTY THREE MINUTES!!! HOOOOOOOORAY!

Songs and Half-days

As these last days of school come rolling towards us, I find myself not wanting summer to come at all. I'd rather be in school sometimes than at home. Hopefully it will be fun. I'm too lazy to write about what I've been up to. I watched Beauty and the Beast today with the subtitles on, and it made me sad. A little while ago my dad came in and said "Are you watching the TV?" I guffawed for some reason and said "Nooo" in a silly voice, and then he mimicked-guffawed me and said "Ahh, I see, so we are just exercising the electrons inside of it, aren't we?" and then he turned it off. Then I guffawed some more. Dear Lord, how I love that word. Hahah, so apparently Becca and Jess wrote a funny song about this horrendous school year. Jess just let me read it, and it made me giggle a lot. When y'all get the chance you should read/listen to it, y'hear? 'Tis quite humorous! Just like my elbow.

It's all sexy

I've decided that everything is sexy...EVERYTHING.

Master Plan (Just to Drive Caragh Craaaaazy)

Today was a happy day. I thought it was going to be bad, but it turned out to be a fun day. Fue a la escuela, y tenia mi examenes terminal. Luego, fue a mi casa. Yo comi mi almuerzo, y hable a Darcy. Darcy then came over to my house, where we swam in my pool and had an all around good time. We listened to excellent music, ate junk-food,and listened to my tape recorder, which is hysterical. I got a sunburn today, and I'm kind of happy. We'll see if I'll still be saying that when I develop skin cancer in ten years. She brought me hat that says "Duda" on it, and its uber groovey. I think I may where it to school tomorrow if I can get away with it. She also gave me pictures from field hockey season '03 and my surprise 80s bash and that made me happy. The fall was just a nice time of the year, I think. Before "stuff" happened. Summer is almost here. The suspense of what awaits us is killing me. Well not really, but it's fun to anticipate. My dog is running in the kitchen. He humped my sister today.

Damn it all.

Harry Potter and more evil poems...

Here are some more limericks from that evil Mzatthew. Perhaps I'll just stop updating this altogether and only put the cruel and unusual poems Mzatt writes about me in here. Or maybe I won't. You will never know. MWHAHAHA.

Rtist: let me tell u agin about katie,
shes a really messed up young lady
but i make up these rhyms,
to help pass tha time,
and now she keeps tellin me shes hates me....

Rtist: theres a place that everyone knows,
where all the british cons go,
n with all its perfections,
it captured tha affections
of a genius and a screwed up young ho

Rtist: every limerick ive made up was a lie,
i didnt mean to make katie cry,
now she says to my face
she aint been to 2nd base
and closes it up with a sigh*

Rtist: katie thought she could write about me;
a limerick, of all things to be!
and tho she is cute
and sexy to boot,
whether or not itll happen we'll just hafta see...

All of those except for the last one were about me being a ho/whore/slut, etc. I don't think that was very nice, but the fact that Matt takes the time (which he has way too much of, if I do say so myself) to make up a poem about that, it just moves me like there is no tomorrow. *sarcastic* But, they are still pretty funny...and clever..and witty..and if they were about anyone else than I'd actually admit that I liked them.

I went to go see Harry Potter today with Darcy, Deirdre, Matt, and Darcy's sister and cousin. It was phemomenal, definitley the best of the movies so far. 'Tis a shame that Richard Harris had to croak right in the middle of all of this, because the new Dumbledore was kind of weird...he wasn't bad, it was just different I suppose. The whole movie was different from the previous ones, but it was still really good. I think I'm going to read my Harry Potter books again because they never fail to bring me joy.

Limericks

Auto response from Rtist: there once was a slut named kate,
whom everyone used to hate
but she was good in tha sack,
and its a verifyable fact
she has the best ongoing rates
~sorry kate! ; D

You see the abuse I take from Mzatthew? He writes horrible limericks about me and then posts them as his away message. *shakes fist* I hate you Mzatthew, I HATE YOU! I'm just kidding, Matt, you know there is no truth in those words.

Bla bla. I started road lessons, folks. It is a fun time. Darcy came over last night. Yay! Eh, I really don't know what to say and don't really have a point in updating this ridiculous thing. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban comes to theaters tomorrow! In approximatley 48 minutes. Hoooooooray!! That was my favorite book so far in the series. I'm quite excited, and hope that the movie comes close to being as superb as the book is. Yippy....

Fetus

Katie H. and I are discussing the topic of a fetus once again. It never gets old, NEVER!

This weekend was alright for the most part...I really don't feel like elaborating on it though. I have my first road lesson tomorrow. Should be interesting..I hope I don't kill the other people who are in the car with me, those poor darlings. I got a 97 on my Spanish test. Me gusta espanol mucho. If you guys are bored out of your minds, then you should call my cell phone and listen to the answering machine. Hehehe. If you really want to take that offer seriously (which I know most of you won't), then ask me for the number if you don't have it. I promise you, you wont be disappointed. RARA. I was supposed to go to the mall with Mzatthew today, but I didn't because my mom wouldn't let me. Curse parents. Eh, I take that back...I wouldn't be anywhere with them. Not that I'm anywhere now, but I'd be a lot worse off without mis padres. I had other stuff I had to say, but I forget it now. Eh, couldn't have been that important then I suppose, am I correct?
