my thoughts...


If you don't have enough time, get off the computer. :)  And the looking for love - right up my alley. <3

it might be a while...

I have a lot of school to do and the school's fall plays are this weekend (and I'm in one - small part :) so I probably won't be on here for a while - maybe not even until Christmas break!! Hope you all have an awesome Thanksgiving next week!! :)

love...and my head in the clouds :D

I want this to be true for me someday...:D

I walked up the door, and closed the stairs,
I said my shoes, and took off my prayers,
I turned off the bed, and climbed into the light
... all because you kissed me goodnight.

I use these things - and I love them!! (ok, well maybe not love them, but I like them! :)

Here are a few things that I use that I really like:

  #1)  Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser: The one thing I like about this face wash is that it doesn't have any preservatives, dyes, or bad stuff in it for your skin.  It does have a slight fragrance but it's not overpowering or obnoxious at all.  I like it!! :)



 #2) Covergirl Sensitive Foundation:  I love the way that this foundation goes on so smooth!!  I really like it! The reason why I use the sensitive foundation is that it doesn't have any fragrance in it.  I think my skin might react if there was a fragrance.  There is also one for oily skin and another one too - I can't think of what it is though!! :)

 

 #3)  Garnier Fructus Hair Gel:  I love the way this gel doesn't make your hair sticky or heavy - it's lightweight, smells really good and holds curl for just the right bounce!!  I use the wave-defining gel because they were out of the curl-defining gel when I was looking.  I really like it!! :)

Well, that's it for now.  Any other questions on things I use that I love, or just questions in general?

I'm ok now - I think :)

Given the post last night, ya'll may be wondering if I'm going to be on here anymore...I am, but I have to set boundaries.  And as you can probably guess, I'm not done with school  yet - so that's one of my goals.

1) Be done with school before doing anything on blogger.
2) Make a schedule.

The one thing I really don't like is that when I think about the stuff above, I think "I should be way beyond this point now - I'm a senior and I should be able to manage my own time, get schoolwork done, and get good grades".   Well, I'll try - and I'm not succeeding so far - I'm probably not going to be on here tomorrow at all - and that's a promise!! :)  So I might be on here Thursday? Otherwise, not until next week - we're going to be gone this weekend for deer hunting (for my dad - not me though :) and we're celebrating my grandma's 90th birthday as well.  Hope you all have a great rest of the week!! :)

does anyone else ever feel like this?

ok, so right now I'm supposed to be doing anatomy, but I thought I'd get this out here while I'm at it.  Does anyone else feel like they're pretty worthless?  Like honestly, I wonder why my friends even want to be around me - for one thing, my favorite topics don't vary much :)  and besides, no one really wants to hear about the things that we talked about last time.  I know I'm rambling - I guess right now I feel like:

1) I'm wasting time on here when I should be doing schoolwork - it's more fun to read about what everyone else has been doing than actually getting my own things done.
2) The reason I can't get Facebook yet is that I'm not 'responsible' enough w/ everything else.
3) I'm afraid I'll have to get glasses because I spend too much time on the computer - ok, more than I normally do - I follow 46 blogs now - and I'm really considering just getting off of this whole thing and just reading books.
Then I wouldn't worry about whether I'm going to graduate or not; whether I"m really going to start exercising anytime soon; and maybe wondering if any guy's going to ask me to prom this year or not - I wouldn't be surprised if no one did - I'm too loud anyway.  Don't get me wrong here - I'm not thinking of doing anything drastic - I"m just trying to figure everything out.  And I know how annoying it is to just sit and listen to other people whine and complain about how complicated their life is when in reality, my life is pretty good.  I just think that I have to wait for too many things at one time. 
Like yeah, I have my license now and I have a camera.  But I still want Fb, an mP3 player, a laptop and a phone.  They're not the most important things in the world, I know, but they're things I want.  And besides, they cost money, but hey, I've got some - but on the other hand, I probably should save that for college.  But hey, that's what bday and Christmas money's for, right?  All this to say - I really feel at loose ends right now - like I really don't know what my life's going to be about and I really don't care right now.  I guess I just want to sit and read the rest of my life - and that's not going to happen anytime soon.

I make lists, people - and I re-write them - and then two weeks later, re-write them again because maybe I've checked off one or two things but I have "mountains of homework to do!!!!" and it's not getting better.  I think I'm the most lazy senior around here - I probably won't even pass this year -and then I won't go to college, and then I won't get a bf (my mom wouldn't like to hear this :) and you know what - I better stop before I bore you to death -I'm getting a little tired myself.  I don't know what I accomplished by writing this post - just a whole bunch of words and dashses - and they don't really make sense...just like I really don't make sense - a lot of times.  and I don't have it that bad off compared to other people.  I'm tempted to just stop going on here for a long time - and then I'll never catch up on reading everybody's posts.

goodnight. and hope you have a better night than I do...anatomy here I come...:D (not!! :)
