Pretty Much Everything Is Awesome

Wisconsin is awesome. Canada is awesome. Life is awesome. Most imp
ortantly, I'M awesome (as if you needed told).

Let me force you to look at some pictures of why I love Wisconsin. I even love it more than Canada, although I wasn't in Canada for long, so I can't really judge.

Firstly, there are the cheese houses. I love cheese, and Wisconsin undoubtedly has the best cheeses in the U.S. I went to one other cheese house, but I couldn't find the picture.

We also went to the local museum that my uncle, in whose house my parents and I were staying, volunteers. I thought it would be something like my town's museum, which is nice and interesting and your average local museum... And I was so wrong. There were dozens of buildings, all well-put together, well-displayed, and had incredible pieces with in-depth descriptions. It was amazing! I took pictures of everything, especially the old clothes. Maybe I'll make a post of some more of it sometime? But anyways it was awesome!

This is one of a whole bunch of cheesy sunset pictures I took. They're all vaguely pretty and cheesy, and not really that good. But I took them off the roof of my uncle's house, and being up there was one of the most relaxing parts of vacationing in Wisconsin. I always end up on the roofs of buildings, which is so weird since I'm terribly afraid of heights.

Also, Canada was intense and exciting in its own ways! I loved seeing the little maple leaf on the McDonald's arches, and hearing people say "eh". The real purpose of going up to Canada, though, was to collect amethysts. I collected the crap out of those minerals! Haha but no seriously I really did. At the first mine we went to, it started raining. I collected amethysts in the pouring Canadian rain. Don't even try to tell me that your life is as epic as mine.

Anywho, this vacation was actually a long time ago, I was just too lazy to update. Other things have happened since then! Exciting things! I finished sewing the dress I designed, and it looks amazing. I haven't worn it yet but I have a place to wear it to, and I'm happy. Also I suddenly became the owner of a boyfriend? Weird how that happens. It's something that never would have occurred if it hadn't been summer. He said he wanted to date me, and I decided I'd let him. However, I do actually like him, it wasn't TOTALLY random.

Just some closing thoughts... I'm not ready for school to start. At all. I adore summer. Also, this year I'm hoping to get good grades. I also wanna practice french horn and piano more, and get better at sleeping.

Coffee Delivery Boys

"His luscious dark hair falls across one soulful, brooding eye. He steps up to their door and their gazes lock. Nonchalantly, he offers the coffee to her. With wordless communication, they exchange money, until finally, he says, "Here's your change," and he walks away." This would make me very happy if it would happen. I did, by the way, write that little snippet. I just thought I would put it in quotes anywho.

There is something about summer that just makes me want to wear sun dresses. The only sun dress I own is white and strapless. My mom does not approve of anything strapless. My older brothers tend to be very vocal on me "dressing like a whore." This is why I don't wear short shorts. Still, I know a lot of girls who hate wearing dresses. I can't help it... I like them. They're pretty. :)

"Every day is an endless stream of cigarettes and magazines." This is from Homeward Bound by Simon & Garfunkel. I love them, but obviously they are missing something in life. There is always coffee. And sidewalk chalk.

Seriously, though, if somebody (preferably a really nice boy) came and delivered me coffee, I would love them forever. Oh, yeah, that boy I was supposed to see yesterday? He never texted me. I'm tired of texting him first. So it's time to pick a new boy to have long text conversations with.

My brother, the one that turned 18, is taking the Xbox 360 with him. I'm sad.

Happy Pi Day!

Today is March 14, which is pi day! You know, 3.14 and so on and so forth. Yeah. So... Anyone else here a nerd?
Alsoooo it's spring break! Yay! I'm so happy :) Of course, I'm not actually DOING anything for spring break, but you know, it's still a good thing. Doing something would be far too cool for someone like me. I'll probably be hanging out with my friends, when they aren't working or whatever. That and sitting on my butt listening to music. Oh! I also started reading "Kissed By an Angel" for the second time. I started it once and didn't get very far. And I would, uh, tell you who it's by, but I kind of forgot and I don't want to go grab the book. So yeah.
Okay, so pretty much I'm not going to stop typing about prom until about, oh say, a week after it happens. So here goes: I tried on my friend's old prom dress that doesn't fit her. And after I adjusted it a little (yes I can sew) it fit me! Yes! It is so amazingly pretty that I don't even know it just is. I was told that I will be going shopping, for shoes at least, but I still don't know if I will be wearing that dress. In all likelihood I will, but you never know. It's blue with a halter neckline and the neckline is covered in beads and it's long and flowy and pretty. As you can see, I am great at describing it.
Anywho, I'm incredibly grateful it's spring break. One of my friends got kitties! Ooh I hope I get to see them! And also, I dyed my hair. It's lighter blonde on top and red underneath. It really doesn't look too different.

Arms of a Thief

"It's a cold, cold place in the arms of a thief..." Arms of a Thief by Iron & Wine. It's a very pretty song. :)
Anywho, is anyone else ready for spring break? I am so tired of school and everything. A break would certainly be appreciated, and I get the sense that other people are feeling the same way. It would be nice not to worry about anything for a week!
Oh, my goodness! I get to go to prom! EEEEP! Ok, I'm done. But really, I am quite excited. I really want to see him and I get to wear a pretty dress and when you are as girly as me wearing a dress is an exciting proposition. It seems silly but... Even though we are just friends, when I go I want to be the only girl he looks at. Plus, we're really GOOD friends. I don't know, I don't want to seem vain or anything. Of course, I don't want to be the out-of-town skanky girl. It's awful, but at our school dances, sometimes you look at the girls from other towns and you wonder why they would get such a short dress. Or why they have to keep pulling the neckline of their dress just to keep it from falling off.
Another song to listent to is Hardwire by Metric. At least, I liked it.

I Still Say "Like Like"

Instead of saying "I have a crush on someone" I say, "Yeah I like this person." *pause* "I like like him!"
Which reminds me, I was asked to prom! It's an out-of-town prom, as in about five hours away. This boy is one of my best friends, and guess where I met him? Yup, he's a band camp boy. I haven't seen him since the summer! But there is actually a chance that I will be allowed to go to his prom, and I'm so excited. I have always wanted to prom dress shop! Actually, I will probably be borrowing a dress from a friend, but on the off chance I don't I will get to look for a prom dress of my own. Of course, I won't need a dress if I'm not allowed to go.
