Picture of Priscilla (the cat) and some other animals

The cute cat is Priscilla and the dog with his tongue hanging out is.... Tornado. the dog that peed on me. but he is pretty cute...

EmmaRae

I hurt all over (SAT's, cramps, and we went to the animal shelter)

Well the SAT's were four hours of my life wasted. Haha just kidding. But I'm so brain-dead.  It's a wonder I can even form sentences. The SAT's were brutal. And when I say brutal I mean bru-tal. Believe it or not the math portion was actually easier for me than the reading! (which was a shock 2 me 2) I had some friends there: Georgia F, Mindy S, Megan W, Tessa J, Madison B, and I knew a couple other people there too. (but they are boys) Only Mindy and Megan weren't in my classroom of SAT takers. We went to the animal shelter (today was free adoption day Animal Shelter) to take pictures again and since it was free adoption day about half the dogs & cats we were supposed 2 take pix of were ADOPTED! YAY! By the time we had gotten there about 20 animals had been adopted!!!!! YAY! We took pix of Fortune (sweetie), Chic Chic (cutie), Nala (sweet & STRONG), Copper (sweet also), and the cat I fell in love with.... Priscilla

New teachers, old wounds, and straight hair

So Mrs. King is nice.... if you are on her good side. Although she is a teeney tiny bit obsessed with tape... weird. So Musical theater was nerve- wracking again. The song Lost in Your Eyes (sung by Debbie Gibson, I think) makes me nervous when I hear it because my mind automatically registers it with nervousness. when we auditioning that was the song we sang. My hair is straight today... i think it looks weird but everyone else likes it so whatever. (my hair is naturally : Crazy)

THE SAT'S ARE TOMORROW... AHHHHHHHHH!!!! (emphasis on the ahhhhh!) SO nervous now.......

EmmaRae 

Homework, Homework, and more Homeworkh

I actually had homework today... In all subjects! Whether that's because of the 6-day weekend or my new classes no one really knows. Georgia saved my butt today I forgot that Mrs. Fernandez assigned a worksheet (in math) to us (OVER A SUPPOSED 2 BE 4DAY WEEKEND) and I totally forgot about it. (surprise surprise, it was math!) So I did it during band, (while we weren't playing) and I got most of it wrong! haha!  But Mrs. F doesn't count for grades she counts for if you do it. So we got report cards today.... I got all A's and one B. In math... Again Surprise Surprise. In case you were wondering,,,, yes I do hate math. With a passion!!!! =P But surprisingly Mrs. Fernandez is one of my favorite teachers this year. I found out today that people actually are reading my blog besides my parents & Regan so I had to go back and delete a few pages that made me sound.... Childish???????????????? Yah and the picture @ the top? is just a very very very very very very very random picture I took of the sky when it was stormy. That is out in my backyard... I have to get off... =*( 

EmmaRae

OOOOMMMMGGGGG!!!!!

I have had my braces off for a year today!!!! OOMMGG!!! SO NEAT! OK I HAVE TO GET OFF NOW!!!! CUZ I HAVEN'T LOOKED @ THE SAT STUFF YET! YAY!!!!! (NOT)

Snow Snow and More Snow

So it snowed Monday night! Thank Heaven! But then, the snow STAYED so we had another snow day today. FUUUUNNNN. My mom tricked me into thinking that there was school today and she had Josh and me completely out the door before she told us. Don't you just LOVE moms? I'm reading this ancient book called Nearby by Elizabeth Yates it doesn't have a publishing date but someone wrote in there their name and June '47 so I'm guessing it's ancient. Blossom was adopted. SOOOOO SAD!!!!!!! =*(  yesterday when I cooked turkey chili (go to judithfender.blogspot.com ) I put GARLIC in there instead of onions and then in the cookies I put cake flour in there so instead of FLAT cookies I had mini-mountains. And that's pretty much my 6-day weekend in a nutshell. The Eagles also were.... old. I had a REALLY REALLY bad stomachache so i think that's why i didn't enjoy them... thoroughly? Or maybe it's because they were.... old?

A concert from the 80's

Today (or should I say tonight) we are going to a concert from some band in the 80's. Fun. We aren't getting back til late late late late. Hello sleepiness @ school tomorrow.

EmmaRae

p.s. I think it's the Eagles.

Hopeless

My dream of having Blossom is just hopeless.... I want her so badly though. She hasn't been adopted... Yet. when she is it will break my heart. =( I love her and I only held her for like 8 minutes! But I want the little kitty so MUCH. 

picture of her

A PICTURE OF BLOSSOM AND ME HOLDING HER! 

I love Blossom. Even though I really can't have her. Because of Lucky&Lucy.... =( I love cats...

EmmaRae

I am willing to clean a toilet for a cat.

Gosh do you know how badly i want blossom? I have been cleaning alllllll day. This morning i cooked breakfast and afterwards I CLEANED UP! (which is like unheard of for me) Then I folded all the laundry and started more loads, cleaned my room, made my mom's bed, cleaned the guest/brother's bathroom (INCLUDING THE TOILET), and I'm about to go either impulsively clean Josh's room or my mom's-my bathroom. Or my dad's.... It's so weird.

Peeing Dogs and Clawing Kitties

ashevillehumane.org

To see the pictures go to the link above and go to adopt a pet and then you'll see pictures. 

OK so today we went to the Asheville Humane Society to take photos of animals for the website. No none of the kitties clawed me, but one of the dogs did pee...ON ME! His name? Tornado, the most hyper-ist puppy you will ever meet. But also one of the sweetest. In the 7 minute time frame we spent with him, he: Peed on me, slobbered all over my face, clubbed me with both of his paws, and messed up my already messed up hair. He was so adorable. And so sweet! I feel in LOVE with a kitten (yes I'm a cat person) named Blossom. I kept telling my mom I'm going to get attached to one of those cats. And I did. I cried. I'm know I'm such a wimp. Here are the other animals we did:

Cats: Loka, Blossom, Matilda, Aimee. 

Dogs: Moo Moo, Odie, Tornado

Moo Moo, is so sweet and she is definitely for someone who likes calm dogs. Odie, CUTEST PUPPY EVER, and Tornado, well I told you about him. Loka was so nice and kind of curious. She had a sister who was already adopted... earlier that day. Matilda, well I really didn't get to know her because I was over there petting Blossom while my mom took the pic with one of the volunteer's daughter. But I'm sure she was sweet. Aimee was kind of squirmy but I'm pretty sure that was because she had recently had some kind of surgery but in all a sweet kitty. I was sooooo sad when we went there!

p.s. pictures come l8r

Allergic to Snow

Yesterday when I woke up my eyes were so red and puffy and watery it looked as if I'd been crying for a couple hours!!!! And they looked that way for a long time! Usually they only look like that when i've been a: crying or b: around stuff i'm allergic to. But what' there to be allergic to at this time of the year? SNOW????? 

Updates:

• Regan has a boyfriend (i'm shocked 2)
• Kendall got a white LG Rumor JUST LIKE MINE!!! (except i have a cover on mine...)

OK well tomorrow's my parents anniversary (the 17th) and for it they are: A) Going to Hawaii  B) Nothing or C) putting a floor down in our basement, Think really really hard! If you guessed C then you are...RIGHT! Weird huh? 

EmmaRae

Willingly

Crying Teachers, Musical Theater, and possible OCD

Ugh Gosh I have five minutes! Ok so today was crazy. It was the first day of new UA's although we still had Mr. Capone, today was our last day with him and he actually teared up! Never in a million years would i have tagged Mr. Capone as an emotional person! but you never know!We said good-bye to Mrs. Carpenter today too! I'm going to miss them sooo sooo much!  Musical theater was nerve-wracking! Have i ever mentioned i can't sing? well i made a musical and I CAN'T SING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ugh and now i possibly have OCD! today while i was doing my homework i saw the mess i'm normally ok with and I CLEANED IT UP! I don't know why but i just feel like my life is spinning around and around and I can't hold on! Like one day I woke up from a dream and realized, hey this is my life! Why the heck is my room so messy? when did i get a broken heart. ooops i just realized no one knew that oh well it's not like i'm going into the details or anything.... have you ever felt this way? i did my laundry today, cleaned out my backpack. INCLUDING ALL THOSE LITTLE BROKEN PENCILS, PENS, ERASERS, GUM WRAPPERS, AND OTHER CRAP I had at the bottom of it. O gosh I am a messy person. Today when I went to the bathroom I looked into the mirror and thought: o wow did i really go out into public with my hair like this? it looked horrible! it's like some bad dream! Isn't that all the symptoms of OCD? or are they just the symptoms of reality? gosh i'm toooooo young for this! Don't you have to be like forty or something to have a mid-life crisis? UGH! WHAT IS OCD! Isn't it like Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?If this is part of growing up I DON'T WANT TO! I'll just go back to being 10 and well 10. You know what! I'm afraid of so much. Even the thought of getting old SCARES ME TO DEATH! Of getting wrinkles or gray hair or old people skin or whatever it is that makes you sag and stuff. i'm freaked out by my life like some scaredy-cat! ugh...i just realized. it's been more than 5 minutes. ooops i hope no one reads this. in some ways this blog like replaces a diary. i keep one but i can type a heck of a lot faster than i can write. i write so sloppily when i try to go fast too. I have to learn more Norwegian before I forget what i've learned and i need to STUDY FOR THE SAT'S!!!!!!!!!! I'm taking them the 24th of this month! I HAVEN'T STUDIED BUT FOR LIKE 5 MIN! (yes i'm one of those 7th grade nerds that takes the SAT's for fun!) ok good nite. Yes i promise i'm done freaking out.... For tonight anyways...

Body Fat and Horticulture

Ok so the pic to your right, that foot? that's mine as of saturday the 11? or maybe saturday the 10? Idk! Ain't it purty? (Sorry i had to do that!) yah it looks better now but it used to look ickier than that! 
Ok so my parents are on a diet... again. But I think it's going to work this time you guys! <3>cuz i didn't take gym last semester and then i didn't pick a sport. I have been limp-running lately (Or if you want to call it hobbling that too) meaning that i try to run but with the tennis shoe (my moms which is too small) rubbing blisters on my heel and squeezing the crap out of my Sasquatch foot (yes it's still huge) it's hard. I can't go very fast. So I'm definitely (spell check) packing my lunch tomorrow. School lunch is gross anyways. I think I've already discussed this...IT WAS SNOWING EARLIER! IT WAS SNOWING IT WAS SNOWING IT WAS SNOWING IT WAS SNOWING I'M SO EXCITED AND WRITING IN BIG LETTERS IS SOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN! But now it's time to stop. I kinda do-kinda don't want to have school tomorrow. the new semester starts tomorrow (aaaaaaahhhhhhh!) and we're also having a good-bye mr. capone & ms. carpenter party. We bought 36 cupcakes so we better have class. WHAT THE HECK R WE SUPPOSED 2 DO WITH 36 CUPCAKES WHEN ALL OF US EXCEPT JOSH (MY BRO) ARE ON DIET-WORKOUT PLANS OR WHATEVER!? Although last year at the End of Grade Social (we aren't allowed to use the word party... is it just me or is that stupid?) my brother stuffed several cupcakes (that i made) in his mouth one after the other. then he embarrassed me by telling some guy that he had a fly next to his butt, (he did but still!) So in social studies today we presented this project on Kenya. well my group did, other groups did the DRC (Something Republic of Congo) and Zimbabwe and something else. But anyways I was in charge of the economy of Kenya, it kind of sucks. in 2003 41% of their people were under the age of FIFTEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 15 UNDER THE AGE OF 15! ALMOST HALF OF THEIR POPULATION UNDER THE AGE OF 15! OK I'm done freaking out! So anyway they import of export (don't remember) horticultural products (and a lot of other stuff) and afterwards when Mr. Capone was asking if i knew what horticultural products were and i said:

EmmaRae: uhhhh I used to!

Mr. Capone: Take a guess

Me: Ummmm.... Agriculture is livestock so umm Wildlife?

Mr. C.: Other side of the fence

Me: (make a face) do u mean PEOPLE? 

Mr. C: other side of the fence

me: Oh...plants?

That was soooooo embarrassing (and so is the fact i can't spell embarassing (spell check) without spell check) when i'm tired i really don't think, and mr. capone's class is at the end of the day. ok so i'm going to put a pic of my foot from a couple days ago on here!

boring-ness

so bored, what to do? i've already spent my life's savings buying music on iTunes! Gosh it's official I'm obsessed! I l<3ve>) music!!!!!!!! I LOVE MUSIC!!!!! Even though I can't keep a steady beat and suck at singing (but ha! i made the musical!!!!) i love music! Playing the oboe is hard for me! I play it because well like I said I can't live without music. Wait I didn't say that! Well I can't! I played the piano when I was ten but like oboe I sucked sooo sooo bad!!!!! (really the only reason I play oboe is because when i tried to quit last year mr. dodson (band teacher) told me i would be messing up the band because they would be oboe-less and my friends (LARISSA!!!!!!) told me they wouldn't talk to me again if i did. but i felt so horrible after i quit like something was missing so i un-quit band and here I am now!) Music is just a big big part of my life! you know? ugh gosh there's that phrase again! YOU KNOW? YOU KNOW? I just don't like broccoli you know? when she jokes she's like kind of mean but she's just kidding you know? Taylor Swift's lyrics are just awesome you know? if you ever talk to me that's what it would be like: LOTS of you know's and likes. My parents imitate me by saying things like: Lucky (my dog) just pooped on the carpet today like you know? Ugh, I truly am a child of the 21st century. Never Known a life without computers or technology. Says like and you know too much. Except I think that's more like a valley girl thing! OMG! I just remembered this valley girl song I learned @ camp! Here:

(Sing to the Tune of I'm A Little Teapot)

I'm a little Valley Girl Short and Thin

Here is my Tanline Here is my grin

When I get all dressed up here me shout

Oh. My. Gosh. My Gum FELL OUT!  

Haha!!!!! Lol! Post Comments!

Several Good Things And Several Bad Ones

So guess what? MY FOOTS NOT BROKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was an old injury that the sisters of mercy saw!!!!!!! But it is very badly bruised!!!!!!!! So Going to Rachel's house was fun! And  the second my camera is un-dead (it died) and I figure out how to put the memory card in here and put pix on here u get to see every SECOND of my trip to her house! Haha! Lol

EmmaRae

A Picture

Oh ick! I really didn't look at that picture of me before I uploaded it! That's me trying to lick my chin with my tongue. And my Dad's staring at me doing it. Lovely. I'm just trying to see if I can get some pictures on here. This is really not what I look like

EmmaRae

a Twist In the Plot

So there is a slight twist in the plot with my foot. The Doctor looked @ my foot x-rays and he determined where the Sisters of Mercy thought I broke my foot was really like an old injury and that I really hadn't broken my foot. So I had to go get my foot x-rayed AGAIN! This morning. I'm going to a different friend's house tonight and I'm forbidden to go upstairs or downstairs. Just kidding! But my mom did say to: be careful, and not to run. Like I could! I can't even catch up with my friends when we're walking down the hall! We got our class schedules for the 2nd Semester today and I got Yearbook for my first UA. (Unified Art or an Elective) But I made the musical so I should have gotten Musical Theater for my first UA but instead I got yearbook. And that's horrible cuz I really want BOTH OF THEM!!!!! =( 

EmmaRae

Recently In my LIfe

Recently In my Life

So Recently in my life I have

broke a bone in my right foot 

how you ask?

Falling Down the Stair @ A friends House

Go Ahead ask it! How big were the stairs?

There were about nine of them, they had carpet on them and they weren't even steep! And get this! I rode the whole way down on my BUTT! So we can't figure out HOW i broke a bone in my foot!!!!! But It's blue and icky!!!! In fact it was soooooo swollen that it wouldn't fit in a shoe! Certain boys in a certain class of mine thought it was funny when I had to go around school with nothing on my right foot but a blue fuzzy sock. They Laughed especially hard when I had to walk in a puddle cuz I had no CHOICE! But those certain boys will go unamed. Even If I did name them they would probably just be proud. 

Ok So that was one thing that's happened recently. Another is well....My Laundry got done by my mother. I wasn't Exactly happy about that! I actually like my room being messy. I think that if you could look inside my brain it would look exactly like my room. Lots of books. Lots of Purple. Lots of Mess. I just love the way I am. Well the messy part anyways. The Clumsy part I could really do without. I had this theory that I grew too fast and that I just wasn't used to the largeness of my body. (i'm five foot seven inches) But I haven't hit a HUGE growth spurt in a while so I guess I'm just clumsy. And most of my friends (well one of them) thinks that I'm a space brain. She hasn't exactly said it but I know she thinks it!!!!!!! Again you know who you are!!!!!! Ok I think this is enough....If you have held on through all of this! I bet you cheated! Didn't you? Ok Whatever! =) 

One Big Breakfast

So I feel like today has been one big breakfast 

• I had Breakfast (obviously)
• For lunch we had breakfast bar. Breakfast Bar. Let's just take a minute and think about school lunches........ And Now think about breakfast.... Slowly ease into the idea of them together..... Are you mentally throwing up yet? School Lunches are just gross. I'm sorry. And it's not just the lunch ladies!!!!!! It's what the county plans for our food!!!!! YUCK!!!!!! The lunch ladies are all really sweet but the food is well.... YUCK!! I will not go into details on what it was
• When I got into my dad's truck I was so starving I ate one of his breakfast-bars-on-the-go Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal flavor. It was hard 2 swallow without water.
• Then When I got home I had cereal for a snack!!!!! 
• My mom almost cooked the "breakfast for dinner" thing for dinner. Thank Goodness she DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok So have I thoroughly bored you yet talking about my day???? If one of my friends were reading this, well.... she wouldn't be!!!!! But my friend will go un-named! =P You know who you are!!!!!
