It should be great! I was just looking at movie times, Sherlock Holmes looks REALLY good....
We just took down the Christmas Tree. It barely felt like Christmas.
All this time makes me want to write, and I don't know what about. It annoys me.

At School and Parties

Shout out to Julianna: At my school, they can't cram all the torture into one year, so it is a two year course.

I am not a big party girl. I like to have fun with friends. That's why by birthday parties usually consist of 5-6 girls.
Change.
Christmas party- 20 people, co ed. 3 people said they can't come, Mom says to invite more. I think I've run out of people. It's not a popularity contest. I just know there are other people out there who would like to have something to do on a Saturday night than homework. I invited all the people that sit next to me in all of my classes... except Spanish... she's different.... A lot of these people I don't really know. Siblings are invited, friends are invited, and I can only come up with a possible 17. I don't know what I'll do. Stay tuned to find out!
Love love love

Pictures/ Christmas

I have a really good camera. I used to be one of those kids snapping pictures of everything. Black and white photographs amaze me. I don't use it so much anymore. I really should. I have a million frames and no pictures! I don't know what I want.

Why does everyone want presents. I like giving gifts. Deciding what to ask for is hard. You can't ask for a record contract, a maid, or self folding/hanging clothes, or someone to do your AP:World homework... on a break. Taylor Swift Christmas CD- Christmas must be something more. Check it out!

My teacher gave us a study guide to do that takes 3-4 hours, a take home quiz, and a huge packet to read and highlight. Not only that, but no "Have a good break, have fun with your family." Nothing. He told us to spend time with family and maybe make a family tree for a Heritage project we are about to start. Crazy. AND, my cousins are here, so I have no time until Saturday and Sunday, I don't think it'll be easy to concentrate.

Love love love

Freedom of Speech

Something we all learn before age 10. What about the freedom of listening.
Now for those of you who do not know me, I am a fairly good listener. I don't mind those who say the same thing 2, 3, 4, even 5 times in the same exact words. It is usually in different conversations, and I'll admit I forget sometimes.
You shouldn't get mad if I stop listening after the 5th time. I am not a stupid girl, by then, I've got it.
I will always try my best to be there for you through whatever you need, but I can only say the same thing in a few different words. There's nothing I can do after that. I will try to explain it the best I can, if you don't get it, tell me, or go get outside help.

First day of Square Dancing, a partner that can't listen and can't take simple directions from a P.E. teacher. I can't take it.
I'm not one to say that the entire human race is stupid, but when you have no disabilities... What's that song, Help me from myself...? Something like that....
I don't know, people astound me. All people, not just the unbelievably lazy.

Final Decision: To BUY

I changed my mind. I found a couple that are pretty cool.
12 years, wow.

To Buy or NOT to buy?

CLASS RINGS!

Everybody is getting them. EVERYBODY wants them.
I think they are cool, I'd wear it, but for how long?
I'm not in love with any of the styles.
It is a LOT of money for a ring... $250!
Mom and Dad said I could get one if I want.

The plan is NOT to buy so far.... Advice?

Sesame Street + some good old sarcasm

This year has been hard. It's not over. With hard economic times, EVERYONE has been effected. Cookie Monster has been changed into Veggie Monster. As with most businesses, some members of Sesame Street have been evicted. Don't laugh. I am taking this seriously. Well, now they've celebrated their 40th anniversary! Well, with the world supposedly ending in 2012, this may be just the beginning....
Next,
Aliens will finally be visiting Earth(According to my science teacher, who believes in my theory that alien may very well exist, it's just that we don't have the technology to get to them, and they(As far as the U.S. F.B.I knows)don't have the technology to come here...)

Pigs will rule the Earth due to all the Swine flu. Go Pigs!

No one will keep reading my blog because they all decided that I'm crazy to listen to my Taylor Swift Holiday collection CD (available for $7 at Target) before Thanksgiving. That's right. I am still a huge fan. Even though the judges think that they should pick the one guy in 50 girls to go up for the competition. I didn't win.

I had a very sarcastic day. Not FANTASTIC. NOT Bad.

My mom is going to the Guitars and Stars concert that I said no to because I figured I would have too much homework. Well GUESS WHAT!!! I'm more peppy and awake than I have been in forever(despite one of our cats coming in at 3 in the MORNING to wake me up by puking on my floor!), AND I have no homework. ALL my projects are done too!!!! DANG!!!!

Corrections

Okay, so voting ends on the 30th.
I have two projects- English and Spanish, both due on Nov. 6th. Both of them need to be in a book. Weird... I went to Michaels. Perfect.
Both languages,
Both writing projects.
Small World.
Sorry for getting that song stuck in your head.
Sorry for mentioning it, so if you didn't have it stuck in your head, you do now.

Actually... I'm not sorry. It is the beginnng of my plan to take over the world!! MUHHAHAHA!

Ghosted

I have been ghosted. I refuse to put that disgusting pumpkin on my blog. This one is much better!
Voting ends TOMORROW!! They announce the winner on the 2nd. I'm nervous....
School was fast and everyone was really funny. REALLY Funny!! I've got nothing interesting to say. Bored... Bored. Bored.
Love love love,
Rayanna

Sometimes, it is just good to know they know your name.

I can't even express how much I am grateful for your votes. I am confident that you all know those moments in the shows that a boy doesn't even know a girl who is in 4 of his classes.
I've known this kid since the fifth grade. I DO NOT like him, but he didn't remember me when we have the same Lunch, English, Health, and AP World. Crazy.

I met some new kids at a party my awesome neighbor Justin had. They remembered my name-- I brought cupcakes and cookies. I brought enough for 100, there was 11 kids that showed up.... sugar.

I haven't spoken to any of my insane neighbors in while. Life is good. Oh, the latest drama, they blamed me for a fight I only witnessed. I have been to the main office 5 times in my whole life, NONE of which were my fault. People can be really mean.

I am getting to know more kids at school. I haven't found a new best friend.... I found an old one, a JR. that helped me with some tips on the AP exam in May. I'm already freaking out about that. We spent 7th grade Track running with him. Good times....

Love love love,
-R-

Help!

Thank you to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday!
I want to have a party....
I want to have it around 7.

No good movies.
Midnight bowling is too late and a lot of the people I want to invite are going anyway.
I JUST invited some people over to the house.

I could host the party at the local icecream shop/mini putt putt. It's the best I've got.

ANY IDEAS?!?! Please get your friends! I need an idea ASAP!
I'd like to spend less than $100.


Thank you!

Facebook; MySpace

With each new school year, I keep getting these e-mails-- Please join [Insert Friend's name here] 's MySpace/FaceBook Page!
It's not safe and it's not easy to delete. Plus, when you start job hunting, employers can look at your page and whatever you say.
So, I keep sending them here.
If you want to know what I'm up to, what I have to say, etc. come HERE. I can do ALL the Same things here that you can do on FaceBook or MySpace in a much safer way.
STOP sending those stupid emails!

Love, Love, Love,

New Phone!

Well, I had an accident with my old phone, so I had to get a new one.
It's a Tracfone. They are affordable- $20 every three months. They do all the same things--Internet, Camera, Bluetooth, phonebook, calculator, etc.
And although they aren't the Iphone, or Voyager, etc., they are that much cheaper, and they still do the same things.
The best part is, their cheap to begin with too, so it's not so bad when you break it!

NO, my parents did NOT tell me to write this, I think it's a great idea, and I love my new phone--PLUS- I get double minutes for the life of the phone! Which means if I buy a 20 minute card, I actually get 40 minutes! Yay!

Construction=Me NO function!

I am so tired.
It's summer- which means no going to bed early because we have some loud people around and no sleeping in because of all the construction.
I spent last night painting the neighbors' column in their house- they didn't know what to do, so we made an abstract painting with lots of Os and trapezoids, spirals, squares, you name it, it's probably there. And by last night, I mean from the minute after dinner 'til midnight!
I am so tired.
But if I have any caffeine, it keeps me up later than I want to be up!
There is no winning here!
~Rayanna~

Okay, so...

Megan Fox Day was Tuesday, not Wednesday. My bad.
Once again, I mowed the lawn, it wasn't so bad though.
Buddy got his braces on today. He doesn't like them too much.
Taylor Swift had the 2nd most sold album! Next to MJ's Number Ones (no, it's not a typo).... She is also the FIRST person to have the same single in the Music's top 5oo in both COUNTRY and pop, which she describes as a "spillover," NOT a crossover!
This is probably the shortest blog yet, but it's all important, fragmented stuff.
Love love love

Tickets!

I woke up at 3:30 A.M. to my cats screaming at each other. Not fun.
I officially woke up(actually got my lazy butt out of bed) around 7:00. The COFFEE CLUB! It starts at 5:30, where they would be giving away Meet and Greet tickets!
Dad thankfully had been listening. They didn't give them away until 9:45- No win.
Mom bought me tickets when I thought I couldn't go to the drawing.
Then, we went to a town near by where they were giving tickets to the Kieth Urban Back Stage experience(he talks, signs stuff, plays for a group of 50 people, signs his guitar and gives it away.)- No win. Why exactly do you have to be 18 to enter a ticket giveaway? I understand 13 and older, some of the music is kind of iffy. I understand 16, then you can drive and pretty much make all decisions for your self. What's different about 18-- you can vote, FOR president, NOT Music Stations.... Good thing my mom bought me tickets!
I like to go to drawings and stuff like that. It's fun for me. I dressed up like Taylor Swift (my neighbors think I have her hair) in my new boots and hat, make up, just missing the guitar.
Now, I'm not saying that I'm exactly "Megan Fox, Drew Barrymore, or Taylor Swift Beautiful," but people were staring. I don't mind- I actually find my self doing it too. What I think is a little weird is the gaping mouth, chin out, snooty look. I came home, lazy and tired, didn't want to take off my make up, so I went with my mom to pick up some ice cream(I went a little crazy- 1 scoop cookie dough), there were more stairs.
I honestly don't get it.
~Rayanna~

O Me O Mi

I don't know.
I've been obsessed with my guitar lately, I love it. It's my life.
I'm in a rut. I have chords in cool sequences, cool ideas, and I CAN'T put them together. Well, maybe it's because I keep making up chords that are so amazing and I don't know what they are yet! Yes, I've been playing while watching TV, just so you know.
My parents anniversary was tonight!
I need to start:
Studying for next year.
Calling the girls for the party.
Sleeping more.
I got the most amazing boots EVER from ALLOY.COM! It's been a pain breaking them in, but it's so worth it.
Oh, and I've watch CMT and GAC so much, I practically know what song they're gonna play next....

As the wise say, Live= Learn

Dad taught me how to mow a couple of weeks ago, so today I thought I would mow the lawn. This is where the title comes into play:
Lessons Learned:
1. NEVER volunteer to mow without pay EVER EVER again!
2. Mowing is a good work out
3. Yard obstacles are hard- I guess hence the name- OBSTACLES
4. Grass stains EVERYTHING
5. I think mosquitos can smell if you've been bitten a hundred times and then get you again.
6. Holding a vibrating lawn mower for an hour really starts to hurt after a while!
7. I love my Dad A LOT, and I want him to finish his den already.
8. I get bored really easily- I'm already bored- I need to keep moving
I found the cutest peace bracelet ever today! I bought it. I rarely buy jewelry and when I do it is always bracelets. I love bracelets mostly because I hate the way wrists look. Not just mine, every one's, they're weird!
I'm off to the World wide web to search for my dream guitar(well, my secondary dream guitar, the one I'm in love with is $4K! Wow, I have good taste, but seeing as I would never make that much playing it, I'm off to search).
