Post 60 and Junior Year

After this post, it will be post # 60 for this blog. It's kinda a big whoop, but not really. I just happened to notice it today. :D
Anyway, first week of school this year. O.o Kinda wow, because well, summer passed by really quickly. And in a year, I'll be graduating.

Life goes by fast. And now I'm going to start to get sappy because I'm listening to a sad song. :'( Boys over Flowers OST - Do You Know by Someday. Aka, "someday, you will know how i feel about you."

*sigh* New school year, new relationships. New people, new teachers, and possibly new friends. This is where I start getting depressing. So sorry if I depress you. I'll try not to, but when you think back to before and think of stuff now, it's sad how much things change, and not all for the best. Soon, we all move on. We change. We meet others. We don't stay the same.

Remember back in elementary school where you and your friends stuck together through thick and thin? Once we went to middle, it all changed. Moved away, grew apart, whatever. Something always happens. Then high school. And then graduation. Everything will change. For better or for worse, who knows? "The future holds possibilities we know not of."

Driving

Doesn't it seem easy? Sure did to me. But after I started taking the DE course online, I started getting worried.

And now I'm going to take my permit test tomorrow. >.< I'm seriously worried that I won't pass. It seems hard. I feel like I know it, but I still am scared.

And driving? Riding shotgun in a car is different than being the one driving. It sure seems fun, but seriously memorizing all the rules, the signs, it's not that simple. Basically it's all common sense: Watch the road, don't fight for it, blah blah blah. But once you're behind the wheel it's different. And I haven't even been behind the wheel. I'm already quaking in my pants. :( any advice anyone?

Close to going INSANE

Ugh, life sucks. >.< Naw, not really. It's actually not that bad. I hate sunburns. Absolutely DETEST them. HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU GET SUNBURNS ON YOUR FRICKIN' LIP!? Ugh. Hit me.
So now, my lip is basically split in half and it's not pretty, lemme tell you that.

Procrastinating...when will I get off my lazy butt and do something? Grr...anyway, I really need to get SL back on track. By the way, meet Kai, now all pretty and dressed up in pink diamonds and cover. <3

Guitar's almost over. Cute guy in the class, too bad he's not single. *shrug* Anywho, I still haven't gotten my permit yet which sucks because I'm getting in trouble. And what else? Tennis is awesome. Love that class.

Gotta go to guitar now. Later. Peace.

Last complaint: When I used Facebook, no one used it. Now that I swore off Facebook, guess what? EVERYONE'S using it....I hate you all.

Carrot Cake Muffins to Perfection

Somehow, despite the million times I've made them, I can never seen to get them right. Or maybe I just plain fail at cooking. No matter HOW many times I make them, I always seem to mess them up. Hmmm...

Don't get me wrong. They're edible. And they taste good as well. But I tend to add too much sugar, lose count on how many cups of [whatever] and it looks all goopy and just plain weird. Then when I stick them in the cups and bake them...and wha-la! Perfection. :D

You know how every recipe has a secret ingredient? I'm wondering what mine can be...maybe it's the whole cluelessness and the inability to measure properly. How I got an A in Foods last year is a wonder to me. ^.^

With me and baking, it's a simple math problem. Me+Kitchen=Disaster. Isn't it brilliant? I mean, last time Rain and I made brownies, we totally forgot sugar. I mean, that's like the main ingredient. How can we forget the sugar? However, we conjured up some magic powder and they tasted great. We even have food critics as well. ^.^

Next, our Mandarin Cooking show. Rain and I were making Wonton (and soup) and mango pudding. We made the mango pudding first, because it needed more time to set. (You know, it's jelly-like so it needs to sit in the fridge). Anywho, the gelatin was lumpy and looked like poo. Yes, POO. You know, the ones in the toilet? Yes that. (Not to mention that the pot looked like a toilet as well. xD) Well, turns out they tasted great. :D Can you believe it? No parents' help whatsoever. All done by ourselves. ^.^ And kinda without the recipe as well...seeing that we lost it in the middle of chopping mangoes. O.O

Wonton Soup. Now THIS is a GREAT story. We made a HUMONGOUS pot of soup. The wonton making is pretty simple. We basically tossed everything together and wrapped it in the dumpling skin. (Except instead of having chopped shrimp, we turned it into shrimp paste. xD If only you saw...)

The soup was the hard part. You might be thinking, how hard can soup be? Well, apparently very. We used chicken soup and because it might be too salty, we added water. Lots of it. And guess what? It turned bland. REALLY really bland. It was awful. So me and my brilliant mind, decided to add some salt. It tasted better, but something still tasted weird. And so we added basically everything we could think of.
"More salt!"
"More onions!"
"More water!" ...still not good. So I said, "Fine. If we screwed it up, might as well try it." In went sugar. NOT just regular grandulated sugar. Because we ran out of sugar halfway, guess what went in? Not brown sugar. Not even close. POWDERED sugar. The whole half bag of it. :D It was funny because powdered sugar is usually for dessert. We used it for soup.

So, end of story, since I'm pretty much boring you. Success..once again. Man, am I blessed with an ability to cook despite not knowing anything? :D That would be pretty awesome, though I'd rather have the ability to manipulate things with my mind. That would be better, but hey, you can't have everything, can you?

Writing a movie script

Easier said than done. I might just do a trailer and see how that goes. :D I got an idea from the history of my school. I'm really excited...except my right hand is somewhat crippled and I can't function as well. I can type, but I can't write. And I like to write when I...write.

Anyway, finals soon. Need to study for...EVERYTHING. I'm so frickin' screwed. >.<

Most Epic Battle on Youtube

Guess what? Screw finals. There, I said it. >.< *sigh* But I'd feel so guilty if I didn't study..so I'd most likely study. BUT...I'm going to show you the best YT battle ever in the history of Youtube battles. And there IS quite a few. Kurt Schneider vs. Jake Bruene

How it started: According to Kurt, he was playing the recorder in the living room when Jake, his suite mate, comes in and says no one can play a song on the recorder.

Well...Kurt showed him.

And Jake called back...

Only to have Kurt serenade him in the moonlight...

"Game on, Kurt"...can Jake beat Kurt?

So Kurt did what he could...gave Jake a lullaby, hoping he would fall asleep...

Now...was that epic or not? So now, we're just waiting for Jake's response...or is he admitting defeat?

History of Kpop

Since forever...nah, I'm just kidding. :D Anyway, finals are next week. So basically, I'm done with school. Except for studying and taking the final tests...which I find totally stupid. I mean, does anyone actually remember what they learned over the summer? I certainly don't. :D

Anyway, my journalism final is on kpop. *cheers* Yes, I know. :D ^.^ So I got some great quotes from several friends and I think it's an okay article. Not so positive about it, because NO ONE wanted to edit it. >.< But at least now, it's acceptable. I'm hoping for an A.

Well, more tomorrow. And guess what? No more poems! And you know what that means?
