New Exciting Things....


Well... I haven't been blogging in awhile.. it is almost like a sport.. Bloggin.. Maybe I'm just thinking of toboggan. Anyway, easy solution to an tough problem. I will be getting a new iPod Classic.. in black (once you go black.. you never go..... run track ?!?! huh?) for a graduation gift. I really do need it. I'll use in jewelry ALL the time when I'm working on stuff.

Over the last week I've been doing some script writing. I've been writing a script on my class, and it is basically the Office because my class is about 20 people in a very cramped place with lots of big personalities like Phyllis. The script is cool. Hopefully it rings true and isn't phony.

Another exciting thing is I'll be getting some original Ray Bans-- the coolest sunglasses around, and I won't look like an Alien wearing them. I have glasses and I have some Ban-esqe type of sunglasses, but they aren't prescription. So I need something for full on wear ( i put my sunglasses over my regular glasses, resulting in my regular glasses to get out of whack (they are tilting and getting crooked)

I want a new iPOD!!!


















So today... April 7....I was using my iPod in class (I know, NO iPods during school hours. And! i think that is the worst rule ever! -I'd tuck my shirt in, before I give up my legal iPod privileges), and the iPod blanked out on me. It said "Sorry, you don't have any battery left.. so there" I was like..UGH! it does this all the time!! But this is my iPod saga... I bought one of the first iPods when I was like 14 and there is the pic! (white) and it broke before I went to RISD. Ok, i was fine by that. So i used my sister's old one (the pink one with the CRACKED screen!), and went along fine. Now it is skipping songs, and I'm tired of it!! Like I wake up and I really want to hear a song, and then it just skips over it, and that really ticks me off! Therefore... I really want a new. I haven't had one in a 4 years! I know that sounds really lame, but I really really want one! So, possibly... I want to have a long awaited 18 birthday party, and instead of physical gifts. I just want like 10 bucks from every person. I know that sounds really crass! But my sister's friend had one, cause his was stolen in a hotel or something..But this would be the easiest way to do it. I know I could just ask for it for a holiday or something, but..I really just want to do this on my own.

Ok... my reasons for allowing iPods in schools.
1). They don't hurt ANYONE!
2). They actually help me study. Not in the cheating way (people record answers on the iPod, and then listen to it during class- neat trick, never tried it, but still cool), but they help me concentrate. I've read music is a good stimulant for the work environment. Why do all those radio stations promote "more music while you work, soft and contemporary, 90 minuite no commercial segments" it is all for the busy worker who just wants to get their work done.
and 3). The classrooms will be quieter, if everyone brings their music or movies or whatever and plugs it into their headphones, all the classroom chatter will lessen. Ok, most likely it will lessen.
I really just don't understand the reasoning behind it.

--Untitled--



Well, this was my last Spring Break of high school and it was fun. It was really low key. I hung out at home (trying to do some hw & watching the Real Housewives of NYC) for 1/4 of the break, and then I went to my beach house for the other 3/4.


That <<<<------ is a pretty crappy photo i took of the Beach from the deck.... just screw camera phones. There isn't too much to say. Pooky (Grace pooky, not the other Pookies claiming to be the Pooky I'm talking about) and I got gift cards to Blockbuster from Ben's B-day party uh... I think that was in November... and we hadn't spent them. So.. they had a 2 for $20 deal, and we took it. I got The Darjeeling Limited by Wes Anderson, and Grace got Little Miss Sunshine- I remembered how much I loved that movie. It is so good and has a good message.

WELL... that is about it...SCHOOL is only a fortnight minus 13 days away, and I still have HW.
