   Content on a Thrusday
Okay, first of all, thanks to everyone who gave me advice on my stiff-ness. ^^ I'd have figured something out sooner or later, but having it just told to me's sooo much better. ^^

Secondly, nothing happened yesterday, so it's a nice, short post.

Thirdly, nothing's happening today, so I doubt today's post is going to be any larger. ^^ Let's see... I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, and went to the park with my little brother, my mom, my freind Courtney, and her mom, and we played around for over an hour. ^^ Well, we actually spent about fifteen minutes at Courtney's library, which got me in a library mood, so now I'm going to MY library, on the other side of the river. >.< And my plans for later today: relax. My mom's going to the CAP thingie, and my dad's gone, so I think Marker and I'll play some chess. *_* I loooove chess. Who cares that a younger sibling kicks my butt every time?? Oh, well. It's still fun. ^^

Aaaaaaand, that's really all for now. ^^ Now I get to go and visit everyone's blogs which were updated today, and read someone's fanfiction. ^^ Sayonara 'till tomorrow!

   A Tuesday (or is it Wednesday???) Morning

Okay, yesh, I know that it's Wednesday, I was just kind of losing my mind for a moment. *re-attaches head* Okays, so I slept like a rock until 8:45 today... when I finally woke up, I was SO STIFF. Are there any scientists out there who can tell me why I felt stiff this morning? >.< Anywho, I discovered that my mom left for the lake cabin without me, so I'm stuck at home with my brother. *slaps self* In any case, I'm looking foreward for mom's return. ^^

Other than being home with my family member, aboslutely nothing's happened. Sorry to dissapoint all my "fans". >.< If something DOES happen, well... you'll have to wait another day to hear about it. ^^

   Tuesday... with no responsibilities! ^_~

As the subject line says, today has been a completely relaxed day. ^^ Marin was over until about 3:30, and we spent all morning watching anime, reading manga, and playing with my cats. ^^ We also spent a solid hour trying to get her to play Soul Calibur 2, and we finally succeeded. ^^ When she left, it was so quiet!

Other than Mar over, I've done nothing but sit on my butt reading or lying on my back taking a nap. ^^ I love days like today, minus the heat. ^^ I guess the humidity is the main reason I don't like summer too much. Ah, well. It can't be autumn all year round, now, can it? ^^

Oh, and my older brother's heading off to an army encapment thingy, and I'm gonna miss him. T.T Stupid training!

   R.A.M.E.N.
Yesh, today was far from the typical Sunday. ^^ I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, drove to church. At church, Soliar and I bummed around the fellowship hall after sneaking into the sanctuary to sing a couple songs. It was pretty fun, minus the fact that our least-favorite pastor was preaching. ^^

After church, my family and I headed out to Grandma's house to eat some waffles. ^^ Meh love waffles!!! Anywho, my older brother and I tormented my little brother for two hours after eating, and I exherted myself to the point where I was hungry again. ^^

Afterwards, my mother and I went to my viola teacher's wedding reception, where I met up with Emily. After congratulating the new Mrs., I grabbed some punch and headed to the mall, where Soliar, Emily, and I would spend our money on caffinated drinks in between window shopping. ^^ It was quite fun.

After I headed home, I discovered that Spyder was at our house, visiting my brother. >.< Ah, well. In any case, it keeps both my older and younger brothers out of my way when I'm trying to update my sites. ^^

In the first paragraph, I guess I lied, because today WAS like any other Sunday. ^^ Ah, well. It's just my "salesman-wanname-ism" kicking in. ^^

Oh, and earlier, I failed to mention that a freind of mine from driver's education asked me out, and I was inclined to say no. Not becuase he was a bad guy, but because I have someone else in mind. ^^ In any case, he and I still talk to each other, so I'm glad I didn't hurt him in any way by turning him down. Anyone else ever do something like this? It seems to me that it's pretty rare among my freinds that someone rejects someone else, and the two still are freinds. ^^ Ah, well. Just lucky, I guess!

Oh, and before I log off, I'm overjoyed to say that the sixth Real Bout High School manga volume finally came out. ^^ I've been waiting SO LONG for it to be released in the U.S.!!! Now, I finally own the series. *cuddles*

Clair the Immortal: BACK IN ACTION!

Okay, so it's been a VERY long time since I updated. In fact, I don't remember what I last updated about. 0.o wowie.

Anywho, let's start off with the beginning of summer. What'd I do all day with no studying to do, you ask? Why, I sit in front of the tv all day, of course! My brother and I watched the Austin Powers movies (gotta love English humor)), and watched Monty Python movies ((more English humor)), before wrapping it up with Johnny English. ((English Humor)) I've developed a really bad English fetish, and it's gotten to the point that I ordered the Europe channel on DirecTV so I can watch their sports games. >.< Ouch, talk about rabid obsession. ^^

About two weeks into summer, I started taking a Driver's Education class. Might I say that every day there is exactly the same? Here's my schedule:
HOUR 1: Classroom
HOUR 2: Simulators
HOUR 3: Classroom
HOUR 4: Driving
Yes. The classroom lectures are led by a guy with a monotone voice. REALLY stimulating and gets you EXCITED about driving, especially when he's only able to talk about statistics, and how drivers under the age of 21 have the most collisions. >.< I hate him. And the simulators: wait until you hear about THESE! You sit in a smelly relocatable room and watch a movie, all the while doing exactly what the driver on the video is doing, only with a toy car. Grr... Just wait, simulators! My revenge will come! *random peasants laugh hysterically* And the only good thing about the day is leaving. >.< Even the time in the car, which started as fun, is beginning to get old. Although I must say I'm getting rather good at parallel parking. ^^

And that's ALL THAT I'VE DONE THIS SUMMER. It's pathetic! I mean, I don't even have time to watch X-play any more. I just come home, and sleep. Every now and then I'll turn on the tv to watch some hockey, but other then that, well... *heh* A girl's gotta have her sleep, right?

Well, saying that sleeping and driving is all I've done this past month is really a lie; I still go to church on Sundays, but I quit the orchestra for the summer. I still take viola lessons, but I only have two, and they're already done. I take French Horn lessons, but only once a week. I was going to re-join the choir, but my voice can only complain right now. ^_^;;

So, as you have read, nothing good happens when I'm bored. I have lowered myself to taking longer naps than an 80-year-old grandma with alzeimer's. Lesson to little kids: Don't Take Driver's Education. ^^

That's all... GOOD NIGHT!
~Clair~

Oh, and before I forget, Jaina, who had spent a week and a half in Europe, has finally returned to the United States. Welcome home, Jainers!

   Back to Normal

Yes, as I mentioned in the subject line, my life is back to normal. Well, normal for summer break, that is! The last day fo school ended up being great; the afternoon I was so apprehensive about endedup being great. The Panda Buffet, where we ended up eating, was delish. (("delish"?! Sorry, can't spell the entire word. ^^)) We headed off to the mall afterward... Soliar drove us, and he's crazy. Especially his turning. Let's not get into his turning. ^^

Anywho, last weekend we went camping, and it rained a lot. >.< Camping's not too fun when you're cooped up inside... whatever. I just watched LotR several times in a row. ^^

I've been babysitting the last several days... my younger brother's band teacher's children. (talk about a mouthful) They're a handfull, and I'm tired now. ^^ ((Looking foreward to a niiiiiice rest of the week. ^^))

I also made a personal acheivement by being picked to actually sing an important part in the choir. By "important" I mean the first soprano... which goes awfully high... but I'll shut up because I feel like I'm crowing. ^_^;;

Anywho, I also got an interesting e-mail from solair, and I can't decide if I'm apprehensive about it, or if I'm misunderstanding something... emotions are sure to flow sometime next week! ^^

Whoa, that sounded weird. 0.o

Anywho, I'm getting my hair cut again on Saturday, which is needed, because my hair's too long to spike. T.T I'm thinking about streaking it green... hmm...

~All for Now...

   Ah, Joys. ^^

Yesh, with the first day of finals drawing to a close, I find myself reflecting on the day.

Sort of. ^^

Let's see: I actually woke up on time today, so I wasn't rushed getting ready for school in the morning. That kicked butt! Too bad I couldn't do it any other day in the school year... heh heh... When I got to school, I went to go talk to Cai about dinner plans tomorrow, and she announced she's brining her boyfreind. I wasn't too happy at first, because the only reason her boyfreind's coming is because Cai, Milton, and I are going out to lunch together, and he doesn't like Milton. GET A LIFE! The idea of him following us hasn't grown at me at all during the day.

Anywho, the English final was pretty long; it was a bunch of essay questions, and I got writers cramp halfway thorugh it. ^^ I still finished, of course, but my handwriting just got kinda' messy. Oops. ^^ Hopefully my teacher'll be able to read it.

My German final was actually pretty fun! Frau gave us ice cream beforehand so it can "settle our stomachs down". I felt pretty sad when I walked out of the room knowing I wouldn't see it until next fall. But the final was so easy; I'm proud of what (little) I know of the language!

Now I'm updating from Art class... I finished the final projects, so I have nothing to do. Emily and I are hanging out on the computers, wondering if they'll crash. *^^* Next I have an Algebra final, and I'm looking foreward to getting it outta my hair.

I only wish I could take my science final today, too. I'm not taking it until 1:30 tomorrow, meaning I have all morning and part of the afternoon to do nothing at school. Meanie schedulers.

Well, I've forgiven Sea Monkey for what he did to my freinds and I; it really sucks having a freindship die over this kind of stuff. ((So it took me a week to forgive him. BUT I FORGAVE HIM! *Hallelujiah Chorus plays*))

Anyway... ... ... if anything interesting happens, I'll update later on today. ^^

~Clair, the Immortal~

p.s. thankies for the comments! Even you, Sea Monkey! ^^

   Dealings
Once again, I update during my second hour! It's currently 8:05 here at me High School, and it's raining. In fact, it's been raining every day for the past week. 0.o mean rain.

Anywho, I'm back to my usual schedule: studying for tests and eating and sleeping and trying not to beat Sea Monkey into the ground.

That's right, Sea Monkey. Remember him? The guy who's infatuated with Cai and won't leave her alone? The guy who gives me Holy Water? Yeah, that guy. ^^ Anyway, he's been calling us (meaning my group of freinds and I) "bitches, whores, backstabbing jackasses"... it really makes me wanna kill him. Cai couldn't help but yell at him yesterday at lunch, and I supported everything she said. Torra printed off Sea Monkey's next blog entry later, and he says:

"Well Cai was really pissed at me for something I put on my blog, I don't really care though, cause what she thinks is completely wrong, I'd elaborated, but she'd think I was hiding or something, so I'll just telll it to her face..."

Okay, it's called a PERIOD! It's used when you don't want to use a comma. He should take a grammar course or something... then I'd at least be able to understand what he's trying to say! ^^ Anyway, his blog goes on, saying how "alienated" he feels, and how great it feels to have everything out in the open, instead of bottled up.

Well, guess what, Sea Monkey? If there's a jackass in the world, you're not alone.

Anywho, he's just been really pathetic lately, and I hope he gets knocked off.

Then I can use my holy water, curtousey of him, and go kill off some vampires. *evil grin*

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

On another topic, finals are tomorrow and Thursday, and I feel so stressed out right now. The last three days of school are ALWAYS the worst! I feel like someone dipped my body in lead and then stuck me in a pot of molassas.

But that's beside the point, becaue I'd probably eat my way out. Wowie. 0.o screw that idea.

Anywho, I'd better get back to my project. (meh sitting next to Cai... *huggles* i think there's a little distraction going on here! No wonder my grades are dropping! ^_~)

   ..I sit here...

... at my grandmother's house again. I've had an amazingly rough day at school, and I can't beleive school gets out next Thrusday. 0.o About the "rough" part-- since this is described as "an online daily diary" by Adam, I beleive I will take this time to rat out, whine, and complain. ^^ If you don't like the idea, skip ahead to the paragraph after the next. ^^

*ahem* As I have complained about before, my algebra grade is at its all-time low right now. I was releived when we came to a new chapter, as it was extremely easy, I understood material, and I did well on assignments. As the chapter drew to a close, I prepared myself for the chapter test by studying and practicing the different problem styles, solutions, et cetera. Yesterday was the test, and I ~bombed~ it. A 69 out of 100!!! T.T I couldn't beleive it. I understood the chapter, did my best on everything, and studied for several hours every night before the test, and I ~STILL~ manage to fuck it up. 0.0 My self-esteem dropped sooooo much after that, I feel like shooting myself. And speaking of suicide, I was slitting my wrist two days ago because I suddenly got really suicidal. (read Cai's side of it at her blog) In any case, that suicide urge passed rather quickly (it took two days), and I suddenly find myself in another. 0.o I swear the last time I was this unstable was the beginning of February... for reasons I'd rather not release to the general public. In any case, that's my ranting streak... or the beginning, anyway... mwahahaha... The only other thing I have to whine about is more generic-- the school district suddenly decided that it'd be a great idea to make all algebra students in the district take a specific final. I looked at my review sheet and thought to myself, "what the hell IS this shit?" (pardon meh French today- I'm in a bad mood. I'll clean it up later). I haven't used half the crap they put on that test since last year! I can see myself failing this year's Algebra... Or not... I'll at least end with a "C"... college can't be THAT important, right? I'll join Sara flipping hamburgers at McDondald's and live with my mom. ^^

Onto happier stuff: I'm currently at my grandmother's house with my little brother. She, grandpa, my uncle, and Mark are watching "Lassie" on television. I decided I'm above '80s movies and am writing this. ^^ Unfortuately, her ISP's worse than mine, so hers is really slow. T.T I swear, when I get my computer back, I'm SOOOOO going to be visiting everyone's blogs! Dude, it's a pain in the butt that it takes so long for this site to load. In fact, I'm going to back up this post on a file before submitting it so I don't lose it. o.o I've only been typing for... *checks watch* ... twenty minutes. ^^

I'd love to see how everyone is, but as I've whined about before, this computer can't handle the loading times. -.- I'll see how you are later! Maybe I'll walk to the library...? Anywho, this is a shoutout and thanks to everyone reading this for wasting their time to read about my personal life that really isn't any of their business. ^^ Love you all! *huggles*

This is... CLAIR, the IMMORTAL, signing off *still hugging*

   Between Marching Band and Mono...
As the title says, these are the two things on my mind right now. A year and a half ago, I came down with mono, and I'm having a light relapse right now; let's hope it doesn't develop more. Anyway, this is the aboslute worst time to come down with a relapse; finals are coming up!!!!! *stabs*

And marching band-- yes, the wonderous organization which I have practiced hard to become a part of. I love it! Our school's theme, "Championship" -- which is also CBS's sports theme -- is soooo much fun to play! French Horns get the melody! Yay!

And other than that, I still have no computer privledges at home, which makes it so I can't update on a high-speed server. Guess where I'm at?? If you've been with me since last August, you'd probably guess Granny's... and you're right! Yay! Congrats! You know, my grandma's very tech-savvy, but she has a sucky ISP.

Whatever.

And enough of that! I will take my leave before I crash this computer... mwahahaha... CYA!
