yesterday morning we went to church. but this time i went to the one with britt. it was good :]
i cant for the life of me remember what else happened.
ohhh yeeeah. um.
i talk to the tile guy for a while. britt & i finished watching LOTR. uhmm. i slept for a couple of hours cos i was stuffed. then we had tim's birthday dinner.
and then i did a whole lot of nothing. & went to bed.
i say went to bed, instead of went to sleep, because i didnt really sleep.
i got to sleep finally at like 12, and woke up at about 1am.
then fell asleep again & had a weird dream, and woke up at 2am.
then i slept again and woke up at 3.30am.
threw up at that point. and had the worst headache ever.
couldnt sleep until about 5am.
then finally slept & had an.. interesting dream. revolving around frankston :]
woke up at 7am. lay there for like an hour & then slept til like 11.30.
nanci & britt went to see the horse & i was gonna go but i felt like crap so i just crawled out of bed & sat upstairs. then i just had a shower :]
karl, nick, maggie & sara want to hang out at like 4 but i dunno if im going to yet.
i want to but yeah. dunno if im allowed.
umm. nothing else to say really.
except right now i want to sink into the ground for a while :]
& that im pretty pissed off about some things but. . . lets not go there.
wtevr.

today i went to karl's house and hung out with him, nick & robin.
those three are incredible. i can see myself spending ALOT of time with them this year.
nick left at some point & karl and robin walked me home.
we were walking around the back of the hosue cos no one was home & thats the only door i have a key to and there was like.. this entire section of just ice. so we went sliding on it. it was funny as. i fell over like 4 times & robin fell over once. best fun though.
robin & karl both went home & i went inside and watched a movie.
and yeah. not much is really going on.
another snow day tomorrow.
chelsea is having a party tomorrow night but i dont know if im going yet.
hanging with karl, nick & robin tomorrow for a while.
then chelsea's, hopefully.
saturday i think we're going to the mall.
dunno what else is going on.
bye :]

[14 Feb 2007|11:17pm] |
today i got up, put on like 3 layers of clothes and went outside to help brian find the sleds.
haha. they were buried in snow & ice.
there was snow, with a layer of ice on top of it, and then more snow ontop of the ice. crazy.
nanci, brian, britt & i [and the dog..] went to this hill thingy.
brian, nanci & i went sledding !!
it was so fun haha.
the first time i went down i got like 5 mouthfuls of snow.
second time i was on a disc going backwards and got snow in my pants >.<
and then i fell off and rolled for ages & had snow all over me.
on the way back up the hill i slipped over like 500 times. it was annoying.
with the ice/snow you have to like.. stomp real hard into it to make a dint to put your foot in, and i was walkin back up to the car, put my foot down really hard and then fell over cos id put my foot through the snow, ice and more snow and my foot was stuck!
haha, yeah. the snow/ice was up to the top of my thigh and britt was just laughing at me.. lol. um. so i broke off a bit of ice & had to smash my way out of there, not before trying to squeeze my foot out, resulting in a sore ankle. and while i was trying to smash te ice around my foot i managed to bring the ice down on my ankle which hurt like hell.
oh yes, fun!
came home and sat around. nanci & tim left for a dinner somewhere and the three of us had dinner. then britt went off to her room, brian and i played pool, air hockey and tried to fix his computer game thing. then we played a board game like 5 times. and then i watched deal or no deal with britt. they're both in bed now though. tim & nanci came home & went to bed. i'm about to do the same thing.
just before they got home a guy from the sheriff's office called and was like "oh hey is the sheriff there?" aaand i said no, as i do. told him he had his mobile if he really needed to get in contact with him. and then he CASUALLY just says [like its an everyday question] "hey have you guys had any earthquakes.. no uh, large shakes or loud booms over there?" aand i start getting freaked out, as i do.
THEN HE HANGS UP LIKE ITS NORMAL ?
this results in me sitting on the edge of my seat. stupid.
speaking of loud booms, one just went off upstairs. i dont think its what he ws talking about though, sounded like someone falling out of bed. lol. or the dog. probably the dog.
anywwaaaaay.
tomorrow is another snow day. uhhh.
dont know what i'm doing yet.
nanci & tim are both working so Sue is coming round to look after britt. we dont know if brian has school yet or not. but yeah. he probably wont.
i'll probably end up hanging out with karl & nick once i get bored. seems to happen alot.
oh and i need to go into coshocton at some point. buuuut they dont believe in buses here, so i have no idea how thats going to happen.
goodnight :]

today we have a day off school cos of the snow. its a 'level 2 snow emergency'.
dont ask me what that means because i have no idea.
nanci's at work, tim was at work but now he's back and we just finished cleaning cos people are coming to look at the house today.
um. okay. emma: the only movies they have are like.. ones that brian likes. so movies for 10 year olds. and ones britt likes. which usually have something to do with horses or cows or something like that. they have like 2 movies i like haha. but um we rent movies out a bit, so i get to see some decent ones.
haha. no, i havent spoken to the girls that dont like me. whatever.
um & the thing we did in english was just like.. what you're interested in doing and what you're good at.

drama was okay. robin & i got stuck folding costumes. ahh.
maths was okay aswell. he actually gave me some work today. two whole questions.. that he told me to hand in on monday. uhhh. just cos they were doing a test though. i spent half of it watching people in the class doing their tests. and also nick falling asleep on the desk. idiot. i love that boy. brilliant. casey sits too far away now :[ and a weird kid sits in the way of me making faces at him. bummer.
biology was good. we did a test. and then examined eggs that we were using as cells to see how they react in different waters. heh.
then i had web explorer. chase was there today. and yeah, i do know him. i just forgot his name was chase lol. oh, and i spelt Ty's name wrong. sorrrry. it was funny. cos those boys are nuts.
lunch was good. i sat with shanna, sara, kyle, casey, whitney & some other people.
then i had american history. it was OK. fair broring but at least we got to do something other than watch a video.
astronomy is always awesome. i love that class. the teacher is nuts but he's a gun.
film was .. eh.
we're watching Rebel Without A Cause. but we didnt get real far into it. i sat with Ty. again, that kid is crazy.
then i had college english. kept going on the career choices thing. meh.
got the bus home, as i do.
then nanci & tim went to a birthday of one of their friends & i looked after britt & brian.
at about 8ish Shanna came & picked me up and we went back to the school for a basketball game. saw Lane & talked to him for most of it. Ridgewood lost. 46-59. ha.
they have cheerleaders at basketball games. whats up with that. whatever.
shanna drove me home, we organised tomorrow (kindof.. well.. we tried), then she left.
i'm about to go to bed. cos im reeeally tired.

TODAY. we finally had school. it was pretty damn cold, as it is. first class was drama & it was spent sitting around doing nothing. theres photos later in this entry. then i had maths. they went over the test i missed, i drew. then went & sat with nick & casey and talked to them. uhh. then i had biology. we're still looking at cells. nothing has changed. web explorer was next. we finally moved onto a new thing. now we're doing some stuff on egypt or something. im in a group with chase, tai [sorry if i spelt your name wrong love], & frank. chase wasnt there, i dont think iv ever met chase.. though apparently i have because apprently he was excited about being in a group with me cos we're buddies. i dont know.. im not so great with everyones names yet. SORRRRY. then i had lunch. sat with shanna. haha. now i know of two girls in the school who dont like me. dont ask me why, iv never ever spoken to either of them. meh.
then i had american history. boring. we watched a movie on how the taxes went down on black tuesday blah blah blah. had astronomy after that. thats probably my favourite class. the teacher is awesome and makes it so its not boring. we always seem to get onto the subject of somethign australian though. today we were talking about waves and their mediums and their frequency and whatever. and we did the mexican wave, then he asked if we do that & i said 'yeah at the cricket'. so then we started talking about cricket. then AFL. then the bell rang. hes fun though.
then i had film. i got there before most peole & just sat at this table. then realised they all have 'their seats' that they always sit in aanddd so i was then sitting with people that ignored me the whole time, and tai was laughing at me cos it was weird. we finished watching 'the birds'. i hate that movie haha. its terrible. and the ending was the worst ever. now we're watching 'rebel without a cause'. but we barely started it.
after that i had college english. the counsellor lady came in & talked to us about what we want to do when we graduate. and i had to sit through it all and fill out the forms and stuff cos she didnt want me being the only one doing nothing. didnt really make much sense for me to do it anyways. i'm a junior, im leaving the country before i graduate, and the results came out EXACTLY how i knew they would. and i seriously mean EXACTLY.
after school i went & found karl and sara cos sara was driving us home. then saw nick & lane and they attacked me and tried to drag me off to something else. haha. but sara drove me home & yeah. now i'm just sitting around.
okaaay so mum & emma are nuts.
i cant be bothered going through all the posts & answering all the questions, so ill just do it in a new one!
OK. the puppy's name is Susie. i dont know the cats name. i'm NOT dating karl, thankyou very much. my tongue can come out of my mouth, mother, just not into anyone else's!!
karl & i spend alot of time together because if you havent noticed THESE PEOPLE ARE WEIRD, and i dont have many friends.
no i dont have a prom date yet! haha.
MUM. dont leave four comments on one entry! haha, write it all in ONE you crazy woman!
ok. president: i didnt have a social security number & neither did Naty so that was all weird.
im not buying an american coat cos i have that big jacket and i have like 5 sweatshirts!
i need a shower everytime i get up cos when i get out of bed i feel ew.
and these people dont even know what water restrictions are :]
aaand. i wasnt CRYING about no school. i was just so incredibly bored that i FELT like crying.
haha, cait & mum: its okay, i know what good hats look like. i got a new one in washington. its in the photo with me & the Washington statues. checkkk itttt. no, i'm not buying ugly hats.
AND YES I WILL TAKE A PHOTO OF MY NEW BOOOOTS.
the only place i have the photos are on this site now. sooo, that would be a no. i dont even think they have a store here that can do that. the whole down is like 5cm big.
haha emma. yeah 16 years and ten i fell in love with these shoes. HEY WAIT! iv worn those big boots i left at home HEAPS thankyou very much! psssh. oh, slip ones are like.. look at shannon's shoes next time shes at her house. they're those kind.. the cute little ones with the round ends. thats a slip on.

today: they said there was a 2 hour delay this morning.. but i forgot. so i got up at 7 and was getting ready.. then remembered & went back to bed.
at 9am i got up and had ANOTHER shower, and started getting ready again.
then tim yells down the stairs that school is cancelled again.
which puts me in a bad mood.
i get back into my pjs and go upstairs.
tim goes to work, nanci's gone.. i have no idea where.
britt is in her room half asleep and brian is playing playstation.
so i basically sat in the lounge room with the dog for ages.
sue calls and shes like 'oh i'll be there soon', so then she gets here, i have, yes, another shower, get ready & go over to karl's.
karl, nick & i sit around & watch stupid videos.
nick leaves. karl & i sit around, i come back homeeee.
sue leaves, tim comes home, i'm bored, end of story.
if we have another day off school tomorrow i'm going to cry.
i'm so bored, its not even funny anymore :[

OKAY!
so on tuesday night, Natalia [girl from Cosa Rica] came cos she was going to DC with us.
wednesday morning we got in the car & drove to washington.
it was pretty cool.
we drove through maryland, pensylvania, west virginia, & virginia, then got to washington.
its so beautiful!! all the buildings are really old and so pretty!
we checked into the hotel.. OHMYGOSH. biggest, shiniest hotel ever. it was gorgeous.
anci & tim went to the register thing [we were there for a sheriff's convention..].
natty & i went shopping.
we got her sunnies and new slip ons.
and i got a new hat, and new heeled boots. they're hot. like really.
we had dinner at the 'ESPN Zone'. haha, yes, they have an ESPN restaurant. weird.
they gave a whole bunch of free stuff. except it was after i had already been & paid money. whatever. now i just have more. when we got back to the hotel we all just slept.
thursday we had a tour of the capitol building. it was beautiful. it was so big, and so old and ohhh it was pretty. i stood in the exact centre of washington DC :D
Tim went to a meeting, Nanci took brian, natty & myself to the library in congress or whatever its called. again, another gorgeous building. then we went to the Air & Space museu. i went in a shuttle thats been to the moon. it was exciting. ahah. thats was pretty damn cool.
we went out to dinner again at some other place. it was good. cos i had spinach & artichoke dip. yum :]
went back to the hotel & crashed.
friday. Nanci, Natty & I went on a trip to Mount Vernon [George Washington's plantation&house]. that was pretty cool. the house was pretty, i saw the first squirrel i've ever seen. yay! and we went to his tomb. after a while we came back to the hotel & watched TV for a while. then we went out for dinner at a local pub. then went back to the hotel & slept.
saturday, Nanci, Natty & I went to the natural history museum. i loved it! thats the museum they filmed um..'night at the museum' movie at. haha. it was pretty awesome though. natty & i took about 500 photos between us both.
then we went & met up with brian & tim again, had lunch and then brian went back to the hotel room cos he didnt want to walk around anymore. the 4 of us went to the national monument.. or the american monument.. something like that. but it was closed, so we just took photos then walked down to the lincoln memorial. then walked past the vietnam war memorial. and walked back to the hotel. got all dressed up, [yes, in my new hot shoes] and went to the closing thing. it was kindof boring.. but i met a sheriff from melbourne! haha. it was weird. and they all gave us little sheriff pins that have the different state names on them.
friday night brian was only getting sicker.. i dont know whats wrong with him.. but hes always coughing & cant breathe properly and whatever. and so he had his medicine and passed out on his bed. then snored. and snored. and snored. not just a normal snoring either, it sounded like something was dying. so natty & i both had our ipods going, and tim & nanci put on the TV to drown out the sound. to cut a long story short, brian was the only person that actually got some real sleep.
this morning we got up & packed and whatever and drove home.
the superbowl was on tonight. jeez they make a big deal of it here.
i got bored, and so i went up to watch bull-riding.
i actually really like it. i'm not sure if thats sad or not. haha.
school tomorrow is cancelled cos its 'too cold'. haha. whatever. just means i get more sleep.
here's some photos!
loveeeee. x
( Washington, DC )
i will update the rest later, cos i'm really tired...

I FORGOT TO SAY::
today in drama, the bell rang in the middle of class & i was like.. 'whaaaat?', then it kept ringing and shanna's like "oh. its a safe-school drill". and of course, i'm like 'A WHAT?!!'
so on our way to the drill spot she explained to me that its for when they have someone come into the school with a gun, you all go to the assigned place in the room til the bell stops ringing. so then i'm like 'well how often does someone come nto the school with a gun??!' and just casually shanna says "i dunno. a bit. it happened at the start of this semester'. AHHHH. WHAAAAAT???!!!!!!!!!
i dont want to get shot thanks :/
cos we were in the big room with the stage & whatever, we had to hide in the orchestra pit thing. so our whole class is just sitting there, and then the lights go off. & so i start flipping out. and they're all laughing. anyways.
we had to stay in the pit, in pitch-black for 2 minutes in complete silence apart from the stupid bell ringing.
ahhhhh.
america is freaky.
the end.

[29 Jan 2007|04:12pm] |
today i got up at 7am and rushed to get ready.
got on the bus went to school.
first i had drama and that was boring.
i sat with shanna, karl, sarah & shelby. nobody did anything. it was crappy.
then i had maths. haha. its a 10th grade math class.. so everything i did last year, they're doing now. annoying, but funny cos i can finish it in like 2 seconds. i sat with nick & casey. funny boys. casey makes me feel not so dumb haha. poor boy ;p
after maths i had biology.. which was amusing. i sit behind robin which is good cos we're buds. the teacher is crazy. we were drawing cells.. and talking about all the different parts and whatever and he's like "just think of this part as a protien making factory" errr okay? after we drew the cell he talked for ages so i drew a protein making factory :]
then i had web explorer. we're doing something on rome. i'm working with kayla.. we go to the politics part and cant do it so great. sucky google.
after that i had lunch. and i sat with shanna & a bunch of the kids i met at youth group. theres two guys on another table & they're like 'have you met steve irwin? have you met an aboriginal?' haha, you couldnt see that, but i just rolled my eyes :]
anyway. shanna makes me laugh so much. shes awesome i love her to bits.
then i had american history, which is probably the most boring class i've ever, EVER had. we watched this video thing and it sucked. meh.
astronomy was pretty funny. this girl in my class is such an idiot.. she keeps asking the stupidest questions. the lesson starts off normal then it just ends up talking about australia. haha.
film was boring. my teacher is a moron. we're watching a movie called 'The Birds', and in the first scene she looks at the birds in the sky with this weird look on her face and he pauses it and says "see how she looks at the birds, that tells us they're going to play a key role in this film".. i'm like "um sir.. its called the birds.. you'd think people would have figured that one out already..." ahhh.
english is actually pretty hard. which is a MASSIVE change for me in english. then again it makes sense.
if i was in australia right now i'd be starting year 11, and my english class is a college class. so. hm. but its pretty good.
i'm the only junior in there, the rest are seniors.. and yeah they're all pretty cool.
got the bus home. as i do. now i'm just doin this & gonan go upstairs and give brian his medicine stuff. he's heaps sick at the moment. poor kid.
um. yeeeeeah. on wednesday morning we leave for washington, so i probably wont update til sunday when we get back, maybe monday. [if i dont update it tomorrow...]
BYEEE.
