Highchool.

So it has been 25 days since I started school. It's good, there's ups and downs just like any other time. It's so nice to not have a group of friends already selected for you. Because in elementary school, you were either friends with the people in your grade/class or you were a loner. Even if the girls were complete BICHES ;). anyways, it's nice to be able to be in the same school as Meghan and Kirsten again. Also I have met another girl. Her name is Brittany. She's kind of wacky, but she's really nice. She's tall, blonde and she plays tackle football, which I think is kind of cool. She also plays French horn. Or at least sh is learning. The sucky thing about this week is that I seem to have gotten a cold. I reeeeally hate being sick. Well, I guess I don't know anyone that likes being sick; but that's beside the point. I'm either really cold or all sweaty and hot. Yuck. Anywho, adios. I must be elsewhere.

Alone.

So. Since Meghan has decided to go to camp with a chick my mom used to babysit, I'm pretty much alone this week. Kirsten is packing, and I don't really like anybody that lives near me. Other than Megan Duggleby, but she lives by Harry Baily. I think, anyways. Maybe I should call her tomorrow. ANYWAYS I figured I should get the ball rolling on this blog again since it has been like a month since I have blogged and more since Meghan has. I'm also officially terrified for school to start. I suppose the fact that I had a weird dream about it last night may be a contributing factor to me nervousness. I'm sure i will do fine, especially since my two best friends are already there. Despite all the see-sawing of these pros and cons I am still very nervous. Anyways, my dream really didn't make much sense. We werent in the school gym, we were in some random place. I was 20 minutes late because I got lost in the school. Seeing as it was filled with people, I could have just asked someone for directions. But no. I have to keep looking and looking for this dang school gym. Anyways, I get there and the gym teacher, some random lady starts picking on me because I was late. She was all "oh, it looks like Alyssa has finally decided to grace us with her presence". I dream the stupidest things. Anyways, I should probably at least try to sleep. I should really get back onto my school sleeping schedule. Yuck. I'm so not excited. Goodnight!

So.. Go check that out.

So I noticed my last post was published at 11:23 p.m. I think thats cool. (as in, its a sort of 1,2,3)

Good song: If I Just Lay Here by Snow Patrol. Also, I recently found these guys called The Hush Sound. Personally, I think they're good. So you should check them out.

Hmm..

I got myself a penpal. I'm lame, I know. I just want someone to talk to who doesn't actually know me, you know? Anyway, its something I've always wanted to do.

Something interesting needs to happen in this life of mine. I need more adventure. Specifically, I need to travel. Go and live life. I also need a new pair of pyjama pants.

Grooveshark. You can go listen to music, make playlists and stuff. I like it. So you could go check that out too.

I have synesthesia.. basically, I'm even more abnormal than I thought I was. Numers, letter, have color and personality. Synesthesia is interesting. Go check that out too.
For example: The dog is happy today. "The" is like a lush tropical forest, because "E" is the color of deep moss green, and "T" is a nice brown. "H" is bright orange, but the T and E fade it out, and all I see is forest colors of green and brown. "Dog" is a nice sunny day, with a bright blue D, with a white O and an orange G, and they make a happy sunny yellow. "Is" = yellow orange. "A" = bright red. "Happy" is redish brown, so sort of like a faded fence paint that was once brown and is now red. "Today" is mostly brown, with a few sprinkles of red, yellow and grey.
So anyway, thats my life. Too much color, but it makes it interesting. It also makes math harder, since I concentrate on the color and personality. For example, if the answer to a question is: 79. Sevens are so snobby and uptight, and nines are so witty and carefree. So if I have a seven beside a nice, I spend the time thinking about what a bad combination of personalities that is, and the answer will feel wrong, even if it isn't. Also, seven is brown and nine is grey, so it isn't exactly the prettiest color combination either.


.. for the longest time i thought everyone saw the world this way..

Edmonton

So. I'm in Edmonton - With my sister, her husband, and my adorable neice and nephew. :D
I was supposed to go up yesterday with my two aunties and my cousin, but the night before the mother said I couldn't go. The next morning, she wakes me up at 9:30 (waaaaaaayy too early for me.. I stayed up late watching Kung Fu Panda. Deece movie) Anyway, she wakes me up and tells me I actually can go. And they're leaving in 20 minutes. Well gee, thanks mom. I'm not showered. I'm not dressed. I'm not packed. You expect me to do this all in 20 minutes?!?! So I didn't go.
But today, she tells me she has this friend going up to Edmonton.. some random chick I've never met before, but I can ride up with her. It's one of my moms friends, so I'm expecting the worst: lectures on how to eat properly, or dress modestly. Maybe.....even.......a grammar lesson. *dies* (It's happened before.)
Turns out she's not so bad.. but she had a foot fetish. I took off my shoes in the car, because shoes are demon spawn, and she spazzed like crazy, swerving on the road and going "Fe-eet... sh.. sh.. shoe.. bac.. kkk. onn.. fee.. feee... tt." It took me a while to understand, but when she took her hands of the wheel and motioned wildly at my feet, I got the message.. right before we swerved off the road.
But I didn't accidentaly leave 40 dollars at a gas station this time. And no couches came flying off trucks at our windsheild this time, so that was good. Oh, and no old men mooning us at bath stations either. So all in all, it was a relatively quiet trip.

Why Must Everything Change So Much???

Everything is changing so fast, and i don't know what to do...i wish i could go back to grade five when no one was leaving and I was happy and life was good and I knew what was going to happen next year and that everything would be okay.  I wish we didn't fight about stupid things.  I wish my brother wasn't going to leave.  I wish you could trust everyone.... but most of all, i wish life would slow down enough for me to enjoy it more.
