Stress

Okay, so I may be a LITTLE bit over stressed. Okay, a lot. My mom, sensing this, brought me home early from school. I have had pounding headaches since Monday, a stomachache as of last night, and my eyes have been bothering me since Tuesday of last week. Now I'm watching my sister and typing this blog while relaxing. My mom told me I could do anything I want EXCEPT school work. She said I'll be punished if I touch anything having to do with school. I want to look at the curriculum options for my Sophomore year, though. That way I can decide what classes to pick tomorrow when we make our selections.

Other than that, I am thinking of freeing my mind by making AMVs/MMVs, posting old videos on YouTube(they are LONG overdue), editing the Monster High Operetta review my sister did and posting it on YouTube, and designing the Facebook page for my parent's new business. FUN!

*starts to sing the F.U.N song.*

Haha, Spongebob. As luck has it, I only know "F is for friends who do stuff together, U is for you and me. N is for anywhere and anytime at all down here in the deep blue sea!"

Anyway, I guess I should tell you that, if possible, I would love for people to post their ways for dealing with stress. Mine is making lists(I'm using the Vera Bradley journal a friend got me for it. I have 5 lists!) and drawing. The drawing doesn't even have to be of anything, just a line.

See Write to y'all later! [Haha, said y'all like the true Texan I am!]

Birthday Presents

Okay, so for my birthday I received the following:
From my friend in 8th period: A really good journal(it's name brand)
From my friend in 8th period that the other one is always fighting with: The first two volumes of Vampire Knight(yay! Fave manga!)
From my parents: A Kimono girl car from Cars 2, a $25 Barnes and Nobles gift card(in exchange for the $25 one my idiot dad sent me), a Nook(the personal touch screen one. It was a birthday/Christmas present), and sushi. I'm supposed to be expecting another, but I don't know what it is(my guess in Final Fantasy XIII-2 pre-ordered)

Okay, so for this assignment list the best present you've ever received! Why? Well...I feel empty if I don't post an assignment...

Fifteenth Birthday(and Birthdays in General)

So...I skipped school today. The occasion was my birthday. To think, my birthday ended up being the first school day after midterms. Yuck.

Anyway, now I'm fifteen. Yay! :P

I would have gone to school no problem if it weren't for the fact that it's my birthday. It's bad enough that people knew it was my birthday on Facebook...(that's why I want to delete my profile). My birthday has always been something for my family and me. My sister and I always had joint birthdays(hers was yesterday. She turned 14.) and shared a cake. This year I did nothing, she had a sleep over. We both got our own cakes instead of sharing. It's a sign of how distant we've grown...

Sadly, people on Facebook knew it was my birthday. :( I really don't like my phone exploding with texts from Facebook about people wishing me a Happy Birthday. I really appreciate it and all, but it's kind of annoying. Besides, the reason I skipped school was to AVOID that. *sighs* Oh well...

Oh, I got a guy's phone number. He's just a friend. Everyone else thinks otherwise. They're certain we should be a couple since we both like anime. Not happening. That's about all I've learned we have in common. I'm not going to return his feelings until I learnt that we have more in common! *stomps foot*

Ah, and I get my friend's birthday present tomorrow! Hopefully I'll be able to tell you what I got(not sure since I have to help my sister with her class president speech and I'll be swamped with homework....)

Ah, if it's not too much trouble, could you post your opinions on birthdays? Mine is simple: I don't get why we celebrate them. Of course, I supposedly am getting another birthday present. Wonder what it is! (*crosses fingers* Pre-ordered Final Fantasy XIII-2...not that I'll know till the 31 if so...)

A Random Thought

So, I've been commenting on the blog of someone. I really enjoy talking to this person. And, when I think about it, I found out just something that I've been thinking for a while. It's about a dream I had. (And yes, it includes elements from the anime Bleach)

In the dream, many kids from my school died in bus accidents and bombings, though there is no war here where we live. When I came to, I knew nothing of my previous life. I went to a man for help, surprised to find myself speaking Japanese and English, as if both were known from birth. He offered me to stay the night, and when I woke up I was being pulled off to the Soul Society's Soul Reaper Academy. After a while, I become a skill Soul Reaper alongside many characters I had forgotten about but knew during my time alive, such as Renji Abarai and Hitsugaya Toushiro. One day, while in Rukon district, I found a best friend of mine, a girl on my bus who I hate, and a girl on my bus who announced to everyone on it that I had never had a crush on someone. They could only speak English, but I communicated with them easily enough. They were shocked that I didn't know them, especially since one was so close to me while I was alive and had died of old age. Then, after helping bring back my memory, I came upon a boy who had confessed to me during the first semester of Freshman year. We talked and he helped fill in more blanks. Eventually he asked if I would change anything if I could. I told him no, because who I was when I was alive makes me who I am.


Now, that dream really had an affect on me. And I was especially creeped out all day since I had been having this feeling on the bus the day before I had the dream that something big was going to happen. I have it now, too. I just don't know what it is. And, even though I believe it is childish to think so, when I penny fell out of my pocket two/three times and landed on heads each time, I felt as if it was a sign that whatever is coming won't be all bad for me.

Now, the basic affect of the dream was this: Who we were makes us who we are. We shouldn't want to change that. And, without reading the blog I've been commenting on lately, I wouldn't have clicked to this.

Before I leave you, I would like to make the goal of this post for you to comment and tell me of something you believe in, a time when you felt like something big was going to happen, or just your thoughts on my beliefs(both the something happening and the who we are one).

New Year's Resolution

So, I'm not sure if you believe in resolutions, but it's normal for my family to come up with them. Last year's was to get on honor roll. I achieved it. In truth, I also had one that I had forgotten about(and I still forgot) but I remember writing down in my journal that I had finally achieved it, even though I regretted it.

Anyway, this year I chose not to get a resolution. Why? I can't come up with any. If anything, it would be to stop procrastinating or post on this blog more. But I'm not sure I really am able to stick with resolutions. Now, I know this post is short and also late, but I needed to post about it. And the reason it's short? My younger sister is bugging me to get off the computer so she can do it for her homework. So, I guess I have to submit.

Anyway, thanks for reading this short post. As a goal, I would like you to comment and tell me what your New Year's Resolution is for 2012. Why? Because I think it'd  be fun. And I may post one every New Year if it goes well! ^.^

Christmas Spirit

If you celebrate Christmas, allow me to wish you a Merry Christmas! If not, ignore what I said.

So, today is Christmas Eve. What am I doing during it? I'm sitting on the computer while my parents visit my older sister in the hospital. Even before my sister was in the hospital, my family has been calling me Scrooge. The reason?
Christmas songs have started to annoy me. I hear them nonstop. Especially "All I Want for Christmas is You"! I have officially started hating that song because it won't stop playing! Is it my fault that I get annoyed easily?

Well, I know this is a short post, but I really don't want to be posting when my parents get home(or my sisters get downstairs. :P) so I'll log off. Before I go, though, you can post whatever you want in the box(like your opinion on this post. :P)

So, MERRY CHRISTMAS(if you celebrate it. If not, ignore that)

Arguments

So, I'm pretty sure I did a post on fighting with friends, but this one is strictly for siblings. This is because of a fight I just had with my younger sister. I'm not saying names or which sister. I am above that. But the fact is, I like to forget about a fight after it happens. My mom believes there should be a "talk" about it. Used to, it would end with us holding hands for a couple minutes(I hated that. My sister's hands always got sweaty, no matter which one). I believe that, in the event of the fight, someone should let those fighting fix it themselves. If htye stay mad, so what. I'm still mad at one of my sisters for refusing to let me on the play station 2 when she wasn't even going to touch it. Talking didn't fix it. It probably won't fix this.

I don't want to express the details of the fight, but it did end up with me hurt(not saying how or what type) and I probably won't forgive her for a while. Even though my mom wants to have a "talk" about it, I don't. I won't be happy and I'll end up crying. It's how my body works. I don't know why. But the problem is: I can't stop my mom from making me explain everything.

What if my sister and I figured "Oh, we can be mad all we want because mom will help patch things up." What about when we grow up and get jobs? If we fight then, our mom won't be there to help. To make it worse, we won't have any experience to help us do it ourselves. I wish people would consider that.

Anyway, please post your view: solve problems for children or let them solve it themselves when they're teenagers/preteens? Optional as always.

Oh, and please note that I probably won't be able to post every night(as you've probably figured). I'll try my best for at least once a week, though. More if possible!
