ohoh guess what!
guess who i saw at "bad bath&beyond" today?? MS. KELLY!!!!!!!!! But I didn't say Hi.
Reasons:
-I say hi to teachers i like (unless saying hi is unavoidable)
-I wasn't sure if she would remember me
-I think she was with her boyfriends O_O

shoppin'
what can i say? it was really fun! I think we checked out every single 'interesting' store in the mall! And we also played a game called 'spot ppl from tino'. I think Anna and I win coz we saw ppl we actually kind of know (even though susan saw some guys we kinda know too), as opposed to ppl we've seen at school but don't know.
Mmmmm Jumba Juice! It had a very funny song on the cup. I just remember the part where it goes '...10 crazy carrots....12 kissing kiwies...' Yea, that was their variation of a christmas carol =]
My parents went shopping too. They went to Santana Row and later told me that it's decorated real nice there, so I'll probably go see it with them soon. Also we might get a christmas tree..this weekend! How exciting! Though it's kinda early.
I'm sorry not all of you were there =[ Especially sorry for Victoria since she had to go to a lesson!~!
Oh and Susan, you are quite innocent i suppose (check this out everybody: she didn't know what Playboy is!!). Hmmm, you never told me why you were running away that time! Now I know ;)
As for the NEXT gettogether- WE WILL GO ICE-SKATING. WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!
hiya
wow victoria you are fast...it took me 8 hours to do bio yesterday...
ah...not having to think about school or bio or SATs for 5 whole hours is SUCH a bliss. i'm telling you there's absolutely no equivalent. ;-)
for those of you who were there today here's a brief recap of what happened-
in the morning ('cause i forgot to call anna :-/ SORRY!) we got there half an hour late. we spent some time looking for kate once we were there (we agreed to meet in the kitchenware department in macy's) and saw waaaay too much kitchenware.
there was a lot of people there and the first shop we bought something from was the CANDY SHOP! i actually bought some fruit flavored methols and we ate that. then we went around and had some fun picking out presents for those of you who weren't there ;-) good stuff. since victoria wasn't there kate got "glittered". it was pretty funny since anna kept pinching kate's cheek and telling her how cute she looked and kate's got that "if-i-clench-my-teeth-anymore-they're-going-to-shatter" look. lusine and i were laughing about that alot. we had an interesting visit in some stores and i discovered how really "innocent" i was- atleast compared to anna and kate. when kate was laughing about this toy in the disney store that was "poseable" or something i winced and hid behind lusine.
we stopped by at jamba juice and mcdonalds for lunch. kate got a drink from starbucks before hand and anna munched on popcorn. we had this ...interesting...experience with the elevator because it's see-through on 3 sides so kate and lusine pressed themselves again the wall and pretended to scream on the way down. i was laughing so much i missed the handle on the side that i wanted to lean on and nearly fell.
it was really fun and i wished that all of you guys could've been there but if that happened we wouldn't be able to buy presents for some of you so it's all good. it was definitely worth waiting for.
*thinks about school* anyone want to arrange another get-together for winter break?

and now totally unrelated-
Alan Rickman interview
Handbag.com has an interview with Alan Rickman in which he discusses his role as Snape in the HP movies:
Q: The part of Snape seemed so perfect for you... there was something about it which made it look like you were stretched and yet sort of confined at the same time. Did you feel that?
A: Good way of putting it, actually. Because that's what Snape's like. There are such still waters in there. And the trouble is that there's so much we don't know yet 'cause JK Rowling hasn't revealed it. I know a couple of things about all that, that you don't and I'm not telling...

sorry malvina!
kate just told me what happened and i'm very sorry for offending you. i didn't mean to, honestly. if i remember correctly at the time i was joking around and apparently my joke is worser off than usual. maybe i should stop joking around since joking around just seems to be not in my element.
so yes. i'm very sorry for appearing concieted. i don't think i'm better than everyone else and i most certainly don't think you are stupid. i mean honestly... . i'm sorry for upsetting you and since i'm not sure if i'll be able to talk to you anytime soon i hope posting my apology here will help.

The Black Sheep
while talking to Kate about that I told her my point of view and realized that it could be actually part of the joke! Check this out-
Artist's point of view (aka mine): Someone must have painted it!
Haha, the math story was funny, Kate! My classroom is the one next to yours, and today while we were taking our test, we hear this really loud voice that VERY slowwwly yells out:
"WHO--ELSE--WANTS--A--WORK--SHEET?"
And that's when our class burst out laughing and mr saint john said "and that's actuallly Geometry enriched, imagine how slowly she has to talk for the people in the lower math clases!" And we laughed some more and then your teacher actually came in and asked if any of us wanted the worksheet. She looked happy, I guess she was in a good mood today.

Trust me, mr bean is not scary! He is a very funny guy! Sort of like a modern Charly Chaplin (you do know who that is, right??). He usually doesn't talk in his little movies. Lately he's been playing in movies such as "rat race" or "johnny english" but not as mr bean.
We definietly need to get together (we as in as many ppl from the blog as can come) and watch mr bean episodes. Believe moi, you will love it ;]
WELCOME SERENA! Is that your real name?

finally i can get on
yay!!! Finally I can sign on...hehe, what should I say? um...do I know the people on this blog? What's this about mr. bean? well, just wanted to say hi!
scary person
'scuse me for saying so but- from the view point of someone who has never heard of mr.bean before- his picture strikes me as scary rather than funny. he looks like he's mad (as in not quite all together up in his head).
i think i'll have nightmares or something if we had to put a huge pic of him in the blog layout. either that or i'll never look at the blog layout again for as long as pic is there...

some funny thing i found in the apush textbook today: [quotes are unrelated]
"Upon marriage women left their paying jobs and took up their new work (without wages) as wives and mothers."
"birth control was still a taboo topic for polite conversation, and contraceptive technology was primitive, but clearly some form of family limitation was being practiced quietly and effectibely in countless familie, rural and urban alike."
notice the "practiced quietly" part. isnt that funny?
sillygreenglob: that is funny
ArmenianLuna: "practice quietly"
ArmenianLuna: lol
sillygreenglob: yeah
sillygreenglob: that must have been hard
sillygreenglob: *cough*
ArmenianLuna: LOL
SUSAN, EVERYBODY CAN MAKE IT TOMORROW AFTER SCHOOL.
isn't that grrreat?

I am reading the long chapter.
Susan, I only got an email from alice =/ Do u have xochilt's phone number?
and yes, this was an entry filled with random stuff.

We listened to this in history yesterday and found out it's about vietnam vets and not patriotism. Another "real fact" from apush; kinda like the ones about pilgrims and stuff.
Born In The U.S.A. Lyrics
by Bruce Springsteen
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
'Til you spend half your life just covering up
[chorus:]
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I got in a little hometown jam
And so they put a rifle in my hands
Sent me off to Vietnam
To go and kill the yellow man
[chorus]
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man says "Son if it was up to me"
I go down to see the V.A. man
He said "Son don't you understand"
[chorus]
I had a buddy at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone
He had a little girl in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms
Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
I'm ten years down the road
Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go
I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.
I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A.
Born in the U.S.A.

Veteran's Day
-some thoughts about it
i am a pacifist, sort of. i'm antiwar and based on the current situations, i'm slightly against the military as well. however i don't think it's the soldiers fault since many are misinformed and didn't know what they are getting into. others thinks they are serving their country, and i respect them for that. they are just doing what they think is right.
so i think it one of the greatest tragedy that so many chose to shun the vietnam (sp?) veterans. i am sure when they entered the war they entered with people cheering. the government knows what they are getting into, they do not. they are just obeying the rules, carrying out actions for their country.
in other words. i don't hate the soldiers- i hate the person who declared war. *ahem*
"happy" veteran's day everyone.
so i think it one of the greatest tragedy that so many chose to shun the vietnam (sp?) veterans. i am sure when they entered the war they entered with people cheering. the government knows what they are getting into, they do not. they are just obeying the rules, carrying out actions for their country.
in other words. i don't hate the soldiers- i hate the person who declared war. *ahem*

You are a true nature girl!
Which Ultimate Beautiful Woman are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
everybody go take the test!~
first i thought this wasn't me at all, but then i looked at all the results u can get and realized that this comes pretty much the closest to me. except for the beauty thing, of course.
so yea, go take the test and post the results here
p.s. i wish i was this one, but alas.
it seems as though somebody except victoria is also crazy about snape
here, take a look
the pics at the website are mostly pics with snape, but there are a couple of other characters like this one
and here's the url where you can find all of the pics; mostly snape's. they are quite weird, not book-based i think. Also the site language is weird, and severus's last name is Piton.

all right already
lets die and get this whole junior year thing over with!
but just in case we dont, and just in case some of us will take satii writing, here's something interesting-
"all right is two words; it's never one. it's not like already and altogether, which can be either one word or two, depending on your meaning. a few years ago the rock group The Who issued a popular album called "the kids are alrigth". promoters put the album name in ads, on tishirts, windshield stickers, and posters." yada yada yada u guys get the picture.

thank you, malvina! =]
thanx a lot for showing me that great website!! all the quotes are from www.crazythoughts.com
wow kate, you had an interesting life. question- 'didn't u like die or something after swimming when it was below 0? (celcius or farenheit?)' I'm just wondering.
Time for a little something to cheer people up
omg, it is so weird- i saw this picture today in art, and now i accidentally found it online! =D
it works!
Quick... get your calculator. Now, select a one-digit number. Multiply your number by 15873. Multiply the result by 7. Check out the results!
USELESS FACTS TO AMAZE YOUR FRIENDS-
* Women blink nearly twice as much as men.
* Right handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left handed people do.
* The average human eats 8 spiders in their lifetime at night (during sleep).
* Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.
* If you expelled gas consistently for 6 years, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.
* The electric chair was invented by a dentist.
* Astronauts cannot cry. In space, there is no gravity, so the tears can't flow.
* Men can read smaller print than women; women can hear better.
* Cost of raising a medium-size dog to the age of eleven: $6,400
* Average number of people airborne over the US any given hour: 61,000.
are you freaking serious? i am stressed. i should use this stress-handling kit-
eek, this post was looong, hope you enjoyed it =]

If when people freak out they are said to be "having a cow", when cows freak out are they said to be "having a person?"
Is a man full of wonder a wonderful man?
If Americans throw rice at weddings, do the Chinese throw hamburgers?
If a cow laughed real hard, would milk come out her nose?
Do infants enjoy infancy as much as adults enjoy adultery?
How come you press harder on a remote control when you know the battery is dead?
If a turtle doesn't have a shell, is he homeless or naked?
If a cat always lands on its feet, and buttered bread always lands butter side down, what would happen if you tied buttered bread on top of a cat?
If your feet smell and your nose runs, are you built upside down?
If pro is the opposite of con, is progress the opposite of congress?
If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?
