It was brought to my attention that my picture didn't work.



Sorry bout that.

Yeah, that's right, thats Brian from enter the haggis hugging me! sophie and annie are on the left. we were teasing annie all night because he didn't hug her. when we got to the concert it was like at a restaurant not a music hall so we were alittle bummed but we got to be on the secon floor so we had a great view when we sat on the table, which we did. we also had some yummy fries.  We noticed mark was off the stage for a song so we tried to go down and get a pic with him but then the song ended and he was back on. so we went and had a party in the bathroom hall. we went back up for awhile but then we went down right next to the stage. we were a three person mosh pit. brian smiled at us three times and craig gave us a thumbs up but i didn't get any pictures. i kept trying to get brian smiling but then he always turned away right as my camera turned on. So we have like a million pictures of brians back. after the concert we followed them outside and got a picture with brian. so much fun! omg, you guys wish you were there.

who is celebrating national talk like a pirate day by picking vegetables with their school?

*raises hand*

happy tuesday mateys.

this is me updating my lj. i dont like llamas anymore. they are evil. but cute and fluffy. when kati was driving me home on friday we had to stop the car and look at the llamas. it was fun. yulia really wants to watch 10 inch heroes. it looks like such a well done movie. i have nothing to write about because i tell everyone everything on im. my icon is showing murphy because i love him.

bagpipe camp was fun. expecially this one kid who had the biggest crush on  siobhan and followed us everywhere. got really irritating. jamie calls him jailbait ian cuz his name was ian and he is 15. i learned so much and now i need to like relearn all my songs but i def. want to go next year.

school tomorrow. ew.

So yeah. Matt and Marie are leaving the band because 2 officers are jerks. They are always mean to Marie because they are angry that she is drum major and is authoritative even though she is a woman. Like welcome to the 21st century guys! But she won't tell us exactly what happened because one of the officers sent her an email saying "stay away from teh students, they are not your concern" because they know that we are friends with her and don't want us to know about it or something I don't even know. So then Jenn and Al said that they might leave too because they agree with Marie and want to show their support. So basically my 4 favorite people there are leaving. Not that I want to leave now. I still have a lot of friends there but those 4 were my family. I mean I can still visit with them, Jamie and I slept over Matt&Marie's house last night, but it's not the same. I hope they come back. It's so sad. And then today we can't go to lessons because Jamie had work, Siobhan had orientation and there was no cars in which to drive me and I needed to call Matt and tell him that we couldn't come so that they wouldn't think Marie had been telling us to leave. Man. And I thought highschool drama would end once people hit college. Not really, I never thought that.

so today i had a 3 mile parade. i was also passed for marching so i carried a flag and i almost died i swear. although on the float for the tim dagget school one kid fell off and the float ran over him. our pipe major said "how embarrasing is it for tim dagget that his students can't stand on a flat surface" hahahhaa. i laughed, i know it's awful. yea so as soon as we were finished marching it started to rain really bad. the three of us got lost in springfield trying to get home and then when we finally for an on ramp for the mass pike the car started hydroplaning. no joke. siobhan wasn't going fast at all, like 20 mph and her foot wasn't even on the brake. so we turn towards on guard rail and she got it under control and it flipped out again and turned toward the other guard rail and we brushed up against it (we would have going over into the highway if we were going faster (it was also at this point that i started screaming for no reason because we weren't even going that fast)) so she got it under control again and (i swear the back of the car had a mind of its own) and we crashed into the first guard rail. i was still flipping out and screaming and i was worried that a car would come speeding around the corner and crash into our side and kill us so i started shouting "GET OUT OF THE CAR BEFORE WE'RE HIT! GET OUT NOW!!!" (there is a chance i was a light bit delirious from the shock) i swear i could not keep my handsd still if i tried i was shaking so hard Jamie had to come give me a hug and kept saying "none of us are hurt, it's fine". and there was this really wierd guy who was walking up collecting trash and watching us swerve when we crashed all he did was keep walking. i swear didn't look twice at us. we called the police and our parents and matt and marie (they were going to come visit and we wanted to say, yeah not the best time right now). so yea we stood on the other side of the guard rail in the downpoar (poor? pore? dude i'm still shocked i can't spell) and the police came, took siobhans liscense and went back into his cruiser leaving us so soaked we were literally ringing out clothes out. i was wearing a white t-shirt too and said "wow so i wish i didn't wear a grey bra today" to which jamie counters "wow i wish i didn't take my contacts out, i can't see through my glasses" although i won i think with the saying of "yea basically i just wish i wore a tampon today" because jamie goes "yes. squishy." heard the term "nervous laughter"? i swear we were giggling our heads off as we shivered. eventually matt&marie came to our rescue which was really nice of them and then mom and dad followed like right after so we left and all was well. except for the car which they had to tow. and the policeman who stole my permit so now i need a new one.

I feel guilty never updating. But I also feel guilty updating with things that may be exciting for me but are incredibly boring to everyone else. First we start witht he happiness. Drivers ed is over. This means I never ever have to step foot in that fucking hell hole ever again. The year from hell is over. No more crying myself to sleep of sitting alone at lunch. Also I never have to ride a school bus again. I win. Now on to the boringness. Last night Jaimie came over and we watched Braveheart and Spaceballs. We have decided that we love kilts. In fact, we are going to make a MIB spinoff called MIK (Men in Kilts). Saturday is the Highland games. Excitement! We have to be there for 9-9:30 in the morning so we're just sleeping over Matt and Marie's again. I have extremely greasy hair. I have to go shower.

It already feels like summer vacation. Then I remember...drivers ed. Meh. So anyways it's been a great weekend. Very summery in the way that I don't do anything during the school year. Friday we were let out of prison "early release" and Siobhan and I went to go meet Matt (bagpipe buddy) at the Holyoke mall. He is so funny. We even had a water fight in the parking garage which was loads of fun. Then we went to his mothers house and swam in the baby pool witht he water guns and had water wars. I felt bad because the big pool wasn't ready like he thought it would be so he kept saying "I tried to make it fun. I'm sorry" and we were like..."we did have fun." Although according to Jamie we don't really show much emotion so you can't really tell if we're having a good time. When we got home we realized Siobhan had accidentally stolen Matt's wallet. So we called them about returning it and they invited us to go to a drive in movie. So that's what we did last night. We saw Cars and The Shaggy Dog. Second movie not so good but I had a lot of fun and I'm glad we stayed for it. Never been to a drive in movie before. we should go again sometime. Then today Maura, dad and I went swimming and my god the water is cold. It felt nice though. My bruises from when Murphy bit me are starting to show really well and mom is a little upset about it. It was my fault though, I shouldn't try to pick him up. Poor Murphy.

So I update. Drivers ed sucks. I <3 Siobhan's bagpipes and so does murphy. He likes to sleep on them.

http://www.springfieldkiltieband.org/evening06.htm are pictures from the night with the kiltie band. I'm in one of them collecting tickets.  It's so funny recently when I talk to people and mom is like "well she's excited about next year" I say "no, I'm excited to get out of this shit hole they call a school" (except somewhat more politely) they ask what school I go to next year, I answer and their mouths drop. Apparently much harder to get into than I thought. And mom has all these people telling her "don't feel bad she didn't get in, it's almost impossible." But I did. Yay. Just glad they didn't get my recent grades. hahahaha. They would not like them. Also, I love you guys for commenting but I get confused easy, could you sign your comments if you don't have an LJ?

Okay so Maura and I are fed up with the suckiness of VM this year. We wrote our own. 

SEASON TWO VM First we change the end of Season 1.  DK killed Lilly, but it was on purpose.  He just convinced his parents that he had a fit.  Veronica has somehow proved this so Duncan is gone. In Season 2, V doesn’t regress like in the horrible one on TV, but can change as long as she is still cool and all.  She still works for Keith, and on the Season Mystery. The Season Mystery begins when Meg Manning gets killed.  We find out later that this was because Aaron thought she knew about his affair w/Lilly, and maybe that he had a hand in Lynne’s suicide?  Anyway, from finding out that Meg’s death was related to something to do w/Lilly, V eventually finds the same tapes she got at the end of Season 1. This whole time she didn’t mention the cameras to Logan until she realizes it wasn’t him who put them there, or maybe even after that.  She can figure it out before finding the tapes but doesn’t confront anyone with it.  Logan is either single, or has a disastrous relationship and is then single.  Maybe he’s in therapy, somehow he’s not the nasty person he was this year.  He can still be the Obligatory Psychotic Jackass, not just as unlikeable as this year. Also the cops came to the bridge and Felix is still alive. Alicia and Keith can have some drama of their own, but they are still dating, or get back together or something.  Wallace’s dad drama can happen, but he doesn’t leave town, he keeps in touch with his dad, and has drama with his family about it.  Maybe Keith gets involved.  Eventually he decides to give up on his dad, or forgives him but sticks with Alicia anyway, and thinks she was right. Weevil is Weevil.  We don’t know what happens to him.  He graudates without being arrested.

 Yay.

So today I actually read everyones blogs and commented. I felt guilty. Now you should all convert to LJism because LJ is much better. You can have pretty icons and you can read all your friends posts just by clicking on friends rather than going to separate sites. Plus makes it easier on me and I am the single laziest person that was ever born. However I have put all the blogs in favorites so I can go read them easier now.

2 parades this weekend, 1 Sunday and 1 Monday and they're both out by Springfield which is where we get our lessons usually and most people only live like 5 or 10 minutes away but we are 45 minutes away if my dad drives and 1 hour away if my mom drives so Matt and Marie are letting us stay over at their house which is exciting because I love Matt and Marie. Seriously the people at bagpipes are my second family. They offered to let us stay on Monday and we said we'd probably just go home and when I sent them an email asking if we could take them up on their offer Marie said "I hope you don't mind 4 dogs." I laughed. I love dogs.

So you all complain that I don't update. Maybe I don't because no one comments. Psh.

So the night with the kiltie band was so much fun. Not only were there bagpipes but there was food and scottish dancing and irish dancing and a raffle. Just so much fun. I would go into  more detail but it's not worth it for no commentyness.

So yea, people don't appreciate my pretty new layout posts so I decided to make a long post.

So I got a pretty new layout. I like it except for the fact that I can't have a different icon for each entry. At least it will cut down on the "look at my pretty new icon" posts. I love cheesecake. We got our NHS cheesecake today and I'd just thought I would share. Yay. Everyone come look at my layout. you know you're jealous.

We went to go see the acadey and it was awesome. Aside from all the academics and stuff, it was in this really old brick building and it was pretty. I wish I was more long winded, then I would tell you more. For now though, know it is awesome and I hope I get in sooo much.

Maura wanted to see my application essay for the academy so I'm putting it up. I know "school" is capitalized. I didn't write school actually. I just put it on my twop lj and I didn't want the name of the school up so I replaced it.

( Read more... )

Also, TV in my room! I'll be Pretendering so hard I thought my icon would be appropriate.

I should update more other than quizzes and look at my pretty new icon. (btw, LOOK AT THIS ICON! Someone on TWoP made it for me for my birthday. They only know me as kashtanga so it says kashtanga not Eileen but still, awesomeness all over. It comes from the night she teleported herself here so we could watch Pretender together. The next day we were both watching Serenity at the same time and it was wierd.) Anyways, I might go to NJ next weekend which would be awesome. We would watch This is My Father and Serenity and Black Cadillac (which sucks but it worth it just for the JDness). Just thought I'd share. And Jarod is totally talking to me on the phone in my icon!!! In case you missed it.

Look at my pretty new icon!
