Because I have nothing better to write about.

Rules:
1: you must post the rules.
2: post 12 fun facts about yourself in the blog post.
3: answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then create 12 new questions for the people you tagged.
4: tag 12 people and link them on your post.
5: let them know you've tagged them


12 facts:
1. My favorite type of music are musicals, I don't really know why, but they are usually all I want to listen to.
2. I was born in Hawaii.
3. I secretly love math.
4. Lately I have had an obsession with saying I "secretly" want to do something, or that I "secretly" love something. This stems from watching the Miss America Pageant, something that I secretly love to watch.
5. I hardly ever run out of things to say. I really just constantly talk, my friends just pretend to listen to me. Maybe I just like the sound of my own voice.
6. I am going to be a elementary school teacher.
7. I think I am a little bit OCD. But not about normal things that bug people, about weird, obscure things that I don't even realize bother me, until I am faced with them.
8. I wish I could speak spanish. I took two years of the language, but I still don't know more than a few basic words.
9. Lately I have been sluffing more school than I have been going to. But it is okay, because my mom excuses me.
10.I am terribly bad at recognizing what movies quotes come from.
11. I have read the Harry Potter series at least 7 or 8 times each, and it is about time for another reading.
12. For the most part, I don't like people.


My answers to Cammie's questions:
1.If you could have a magical object from Harry Potter, besides a wand, what would it be?: Ronald Weasly, I love him, and he is a magical object, so obviously I would pick him.
2. What is your favorite ice cream topping?: I don't really like toppings on my ice cream, but right now, my favorite type of ice cream is cookies and cream, so I would probably go with oreos.
3. The bachelor, or bachelorette?: Definitely the bachelor, I find the bachelorette so slutty.
4.If you played on a quidditch team, what position would you be?: A beater probably. I want to aim bludgers at people I dislike. I think it would be cathartic.
5. Do you have any embarrassing obsessions?:  I don't think so. I mean, I am sure I do, but none that jump off the top of my head. I am totally obsessed with my grades, and I started to cry when I almost got an A-, so I guess that is kind of embarrassing.
6. What is your favorite meal: breakfast, lunch or dinner?: Breakfast. I just like breakfast food, plus I can actually cook those foods, so that is a plus.
7. What is it about your favorite pair of shoes?: Well lately my favorite shoes have been my hooker heels. Partly because I like saying hooker heels, but mostly because I like feeling tall. And plus they make my legs look good.
8. How often do you check the stats on your blog?: Honestly, way more than I should. Probably once every day or so. I like to see if there are any new countries that pop up.
9. What color/pattern is your bed spread?: Black and white, and sort of floralish, but not really. It is complicated to describe.
10. Who is your favorite friends character?: Probably Chandler, he is kind of nerdy and awkward, so I like him.
11. A few of your favorite smells.: If i were to take a whiff of amortencia, I would smell grass, the sidewalk after a rainstorm, new books, and the laundry detergent aisle.
12. What is the funniest embarrassing story you have ever heard?: I have a friend, lets call her Alexa H., no no no, A. Hodson. Well she pees her pants a lot, and one time she peed her pants a midst a group of all boys, on a long board. That one is pretty funny to me, plus, it is the only one I can really think of at the moment.


My questions:
1. What is your guilty pleasure show?
2. If you could pick any time period to live in, what would it be and why?
3. Describe your first major crush.
4. What is your favorite flavor of poptart?
5. What is your most irrational fear?
6. If you could only eat one food (or type of food) for the rest of your life, what would you pick.
7. Snog, date or dump: Voldemort, Wormtail and Lucius Malfoy?
8. What is your biggest pet peeve?
9. If you could be on any game show, past or present, which one would you choose?
10. What was your favorite book growing up.
11. What is something that you secretly want to do, or like to do?
12. What is your least favorite texture?


And there you have it.

I'm a bit of a rebel

Today at work I got written up. Here is why...
(Aaron walks by carrying the bag of trash from photo)
Cami: Wow, I didn't know photo had so much trash.
Me: Of course they do, they hired Aaron.
Aaron: Watch it, I know where the write up forms are now.
Me: Well, too bad you are not supervising right now, so you could fill one out.
Aaron: Just watch me.
...
Aaron (over the intercom): Can I please get Kendall to the Service Desk?
(I walk over and he hands me a slip, this is what it said)

Please describe the nature of the violation: Being extremely disrespectful to superiors. Being a productivity vampire. Murder.
 Please summarize the discussion you had with the team member to correct the action: I told her to treat others with kindness and respect, explained ways she can stay busy and stressed the importance of not killing people.
...
Sometimes, I really love my job.

A glimpse

I ditched school today to go to school. Confused? Let me rephrase... I ditched high school today to go to elementary school. It was probably the best day I have had in a long time.
Little kids are sassy, but they are pretty cool.
I could probably be happy teaching them for the rest of my life.

I'm awkward but it's fine

Sometimes I am in need of pads, so Haley and I go to Macey's so that I can purchase some.
I go to check out and buy my item, and I set it down on the checkstand. There is a teenage boy and his father in front of me. The boy gives me a look, takes a glance at what I am buying, and then quickly looks away, as if he feels dirty for having seen a girl buying pads. Then me and Haley look at each other and start laughing pretty hard.
When are boys going to understand that periods are a natural part of life, and that buying pads is too?

Here's to a miracle

Since I was 12 year old, and a little seventh grader, my dream was to graduate with a 4.0. I always assumed that I would be able to accomplish it because I am fairly smart, and have always had straight A's in the past.

Now it is the night before the end of my last second term in high school and my grades are as follows.

A
B+
A
NC (P)
NC (A)
A-
B

And the best part is is that I missed school today because I am sick. Which means that tomorrow I have to fix all my grades, which means taking three or four tests I believe, all while still probably feeling like crap. Think I can do it?  I do. Stranger things have happened right?

So here is to miracles, and dreams come true, because I really don't need to see all my hopes and plans for my high school life go down the toilet right now. If I can do this, I will try to stop being so lazy, and try to suppress this disease I have that stems from being a senior.

Graduation, would you mind coming quickly, I am ready to move on from everything that high school has been lately.

It's 10:00 and...

It's 10:00 and

  • I just got off work.
  • I have to read 200 pages of 1984.
  • I have to come up with my ten favorite quotes from a book I haven't read yet (see above).
  • I have to write a paper about the themes in a book I have never read.
  • I am on facebook and blogger instead of doing useful stuff.
  • I am cheating on my online classes, don't worry, I will go back and really do the work later, just not right now.
  • I am about to fall asleep, even though I am drinking the Dew to try to stay awake.
  • I am trying to remember the path of blood through the body, but mostly the heart, and I am glad that I know it now because me and a kid at work quiz each other on it while we are helping customers.
  • I am trying not to fall asleep.
  • I am contemplating taking a shower to wake me up. But that means I have to do something with my hair, and I would really rather not.
  • I am having a really hard time remembering how to spell simple words.                                           
It's 10:00 and I am procrastinating.
What else is new?
