Guilty

Gosh,
When was the last time that I've posted in here.
I feel a little bad that the last time I updated was in August.
But it's just harder for me since I don't have my laptop, so
that means I have to share to computer with five other people.
Also, our desktop is located in the middle of our kitchen, so I really
don't have any time to concentrate ( like right now for example). But I'm going to try harder from now on to post more. So many exciting things have happened to me over the last few months that I will recap:

- I took two classes (Spanish and Psychology) at my local Community College, and I ended up getting a "B+" in one class, and a "A" in another class.

-I'm also planning to take four classes in the spring, so wish me luck!

- In September I started a club for Dual Enrollment Students called D.E.S.A. (Dual Enrollment Student Association). It's been a long and tedious process to form, but completely worth it. And hopefully more people join for the next semester.

-Lindsay

p.s. My new goal is to make a post one a week, hopefully I can stay that diligent.

Petusis

Over the last few weeks I have felt simply awful. Why you ask? It's because of my stupid Pertussis (Or whooping cough). My eyes are red and puffy from all the uncontrollable vomiting I've been doing, I can't eat anything because I'll just throw it up, and when I cough I start to suffocate and it becomes hard to breathe. I hope I get better soon because I want to be well enough to go to Boston with my dad in a few weeks. Luckily for me my eyes the opthamologist I went to said they will heal soon so they aren't anything to worry about (expect scaring my siblings). And I have been taking plenty of antibiotics drinking fluids, and getting plenty of sleep, I'm confident that by the end of the month I'll be cured. What I want to now is where did I get this from? I guess I really need to clean my room now since apparently it comes from bacteria. Just pray for me guys since I feel horrible.

Later

Why do parents have to nag so much? I know that my mom and dad love me, but honestly they sometimes get on my nerves. I was going to write a nice post about my trip to Scotland, but I now have to walk all the way with my sister to a friends house. I normally wouldn't have a problem with this but I just have this urge to write and if I go and come back, I don't think I would be in the same mood. Plus I'm not in the best shape and this walk will tired me out especially with my sister running around. Maybe I'm just being too sensitive today. I should've went to bed earlier.Another thing, why does my sister have to cut all her doll beautiful hair off? Is this just a little kid thing? I anoyes me so much to see her just cut off her dolls hair and turn it into a lobsided short haircut. I brings me back to the time when my little brother Aaron cut off all the hair of my Barbie doll in 2001.

UTCS0410 (or 07)



Soon this thing will finally disappear from my brain forever.Thank goodness I really hate C-bots, they are such a pain. But at least I've identified what is is and not to let it have total control over me. My mom said it's just a normal part of being a teenager so maybe I will just have to get used to them. But at least i'm better than I was in september. In college I can't be acting like a turtle around these things. And maybe in the future I can transform one into a F-bot without the thought of it hurting.

P.s. I know none of you have any clue what I'm talking about.

A blessing!

I am in complete shock! So recently I have been going around to post offices asking for donations so I have enough money for my Scotland trip, and today one man gave me $10 and later came back and said "You know, I feel like the lord wanted me to bless you today" And then dropped a $50 bill in my bin! I so suprised tyhat really made my day. I was only expecting around one dollar per person.

Foki!



One of my favorite bloggers is a 18 year old Swedish girl who runs a blog called "Foki". Her name's really Anchisa and she used to live in Thailand until she moved to Sweden at the age of 10-11. Her blog is so unique because she posts all these interesting posts about Japanese culture and interesting artwork. I wish there were more bloggers like her. The only thing that bothers me about her is that since she was fifteen she had been living with her boyfriend who is about 6-7 years older than her! (They started dating when she was fourteen) I don't understand how her parents would accept this at all. If I wanted to move in with an older man such a young age, my parents would disown me. How can she be so buddy-buddy with her parents after this happened? And she says next year she and her boyfriend are going to move to Thailand (I wonder how that's going to work out).Maybe it's just a Swedish thing.

Four weeks to go!


Can you believe it! less than a month to go until me and my brother go to Scotland for ten whole days! I can hardly retain my excitement! I'm always counting down the days until the moment arrives! The only part That I'm a bit nervous about is the plane ride (I'm terrified of heights and flying). But besides that I think I'll be fine. I can't wait to try haggis! :-)

Me and My Dreams

Last night I had such a strange dream! Me and my whole family were traveling across a bridge and all of a sudden these police officers near the end told us to get out of the car which we did, and minutes later they pushed it into the water! This happened for everyone on the bridge and we had to get a bus to take us to our destination. Isn't that strange?

Cooking!

I usually don't like cooking beaucse I'm not that good at it, but a while ago I gave myself the challange of making something fresh for breakfast, and I think I really nailed it. I made a spinich fritata, and it was amazing! Maybe i'm just a little bit too hard on myself when it comes cooking. I really need to gain some confidence and find things that I would really love to make (like chocolate chip cookies). I can't be so down in the dumps if I want to go to college next year. I need to get some backbone!

P.s. Sorry for not updating as much, i'm so lazy. :-(

Pictures...

Since my annoying brother wants me to get off the computer soon, i'll just post some of my latest pictures really quickly:


I went to a women's basketball game with my dad the other day, it was Vilanova vs. Uconn, and the latter won. i was so fun spending time with my dad even though the home team lost. I hope we can do this again some other time as well.


Me, my little brother, and my Mom visited Chipotle Mexican Grill after hearing about it on Oprah. The food was just delicious and everything was so fresh too. I will defianitly be coming back there another day.

Also, yesterday me and Aaron went to one of our handbell instructor's (Holly's) birthday. It took forever to get to their house, it was like driving around a maze, so confusing. I was relieved once we got there,and I had a lot of fun playing games like apples to apples and four men on a couch. It made me so excited to for Scotland next month!

Bad Horse!



Today I was volunteering at Ivy Hill by helping lead a lesson and the horse I was with kept misbehaving. For the whole time he would try to bit at me,run when he was suppose to be just walking and walk in the opposite direction from where i was going. He got on my nerves a lot! I thought maybe he had an issue with me, but the workers say he acts like that to everyone. Eventually I got to help with another lesson and that made me so relieved! Side note: My foot got step on by a horse with shoes, not a very fun experience.

Blonde hair!!!


A few days ago my brother did what I thought was the unthinkable, he dyed his hair blond! He said it was for a certain swim meet called Wilson's meet the whole team was participating in that he and he didn't want to stand out beacuse all the other guys on his team were doing it. I understand what he means about fitting in but the hair looks so awful, it doesn't match his skin tone at all, and looks too harsh. I really hope he changes it back soon (but he said they're all going to dye their hair blue next!) But I guess this is all about him having a normal public school experience and later in his life he'll look back at this moment and laugh. Even before I tried to talk him out of it, but he insisted. I just hope the dye is easy to get.

Avatar!!!!!!


Okay, a few hours ago me and my brother went to the movies to see Avatar in 3-D and it was amazing. The graphics and visuals were just spectacular, and the story although a little unorignial kept me on the edge of my toes (actually the edge of my feet I mean) the whole time!It was all so beautiful to look at. When it first came out I always wondered "What's the big deal about this movie, and why is it making so much money?" Now I see why people were raving about it so much. And I'm glad I went to go see in it 3D since it really enchanced the movie.

New Pictures


(The horse stable where I work)

Today I figured that should start posting pictures again since my post seems kind of dull without them, and I don't have to worry about not having a camera anymore.


"Chemistry school work, it's hard but sometimes fastinating".




One of the videos I was watching about chemical and physical reactions, I would not want to touch that!

Toastmasters

I'm so nervous for tomorrow, my mom signed me up for a public speaking class that's called toastmasters. I was there last week and had to make a speech about some one that I had just talked too and I was so nervous and stiff. It was terrible! But I guess that's what the class is about, to make me get out of my shell so I can present myself in a better way without being too shy. And plus I guess it will be to my advantage went I apply for college or a job in the near future. I was nervous during the first minute, but once I realized that other people were just as nervous as I was and that their parents made them sign up as well, I calmed down internally.hopefully this class makes a huge difference in my life!

My Dream last night

Okay last night when I was sleeping, I had such a strange dream.
Me and my siblings were traveling to some country on and airplane, and about one hour after taking off the plane started to fail and went crashing down . Luckily for some reason the plane we( me and my siblings) all managed to survived, and minutes later a ship saw us and came to our rescue and after spending quite a bit of time out at sea we were docked in a strange place and Asia and tried to contact our parents. Then I woke up. How wried though?

(miss)understood

I really love my family, but sometimes it seems that they have a lack of understanding toward me and my feelings. For example, my brothers always pester me about the type of music I listen to (mostly Japanese music). T o answer them I always ask them why they don't like it besides the different language they can't answer my question at all. And if they just saw my last FM page they would see that i listen to all kinds of music from around the world, and they wouldn't generalize my so much. Today I wanted to transfer pictures from a memory card to my external hard drive and they took the mouse from me! I had to try to fight them for it, and ended up bitting Aaron because David kept pinching me under my arms. But mom told me to take a walk to cool my head, I was angry at first but I've calmed down since then and the walk was really pleasant. But i guess it's kind of brothers jobs to annoy, maybe I shouldn't take them so seriously as my parents say.

Happy! (A but bittersweet)

About a month ago I was taking a tour of cathetral and I dropped my camera and it was completely ruined. I felt so crushed because I took that camera everywhere i went since last Christmas. But just yesterday after looking at my grade for my community college class, Dad got me a brand new one! I was so excited! Actually I had got one for Christmas But it was lacking a lot of the features that the old one had, and this new one has a battery that use just recharge by using a plug in to the wall. I so happy now I have something to takes pictures with when I go to Scotland i two months, But maybe I shouldn't have complained so much about my camera and it's lack of feature since we're kind of tight of money. I suppose I shouldn't make anymore noise about since I have a bad habit of over talking and over anylyzing. But thank you anyway Dad! :-)

Hiatus End

Wow! I haven't written here for a long time, but I promise that I'll try to write more. I always mean to post but I've been so busy with my outside life, and my laptop's motherboard died. But I've done many interesting things lately such as taking a speaking class, volunteering at a therapeutic horse center ( with I'll explain in the next post) and acting in a small community play. I can hardly believe it's 2010 also, the year went my so fast. In a few months I'm turning 18 too. But I don't feel adult at all, maybe it's just a gradual change. lately I've felt so inspired by this to work hard in my school work so when fall comes I can have many options of colleges to apply for. I can already tell that 2010 is going to be a big year for me SAT'S,getting my drivers license, my Scotland trip,applying to colleges, and becomes an adult. Bring it on 2010!
