10 Things I Hate

1. When people chomp their food I have a fit. Can't they just take in smaller bites, wash down everything in their mouth, simply close their mouth, or leave the room.
2.The sound of an alarm clock beeping out of control makes the hairs on my back stick up. There is obviously nothing that you or I can do about this; alarm clocks do mean well.
3. I don't hate the people that laugh at everything but I hate it when they laugh at everything. I think it gets annoying and nothing is that funny; this is only justified when you're watching stand up comedy.
4. Warning you right now that I hate when people are always flirting. Just don't do it, people don't like someone who's too eager.
5. I hate when people are nosy and always getting into other people's business. Although I sometimes I can be charged guilty of this, the truth is that I can't stand it.
6.Questions that are obvious drive me up the wall. I think that you should be taking pills if you ask obvious questions.
7. If a person asks me rhetorical questions about being vegan I seriously want to chop of my own hands. Don't be a jerk.
8. People that make fun of handicapped people, I hate; end of story.
9. Closed mindedness makes me nuts. Why can't you just except things? I think what I just said was extremely funny; here I am writing a list of things that I hate.
10. I hate when people make plans to hang out and never come, or call.

Of Mice and Men

The book that J10 is currently reading is "Of Mice and Men," by John Steinbeck. I'm really enjoying this book. We're about half way through the book and so far it's been all talk, but that's the thing that I really love about it. It seems like everyone has a story of their own in this book and it's getting hard to tell who the real main character is. Of Mice and Men seems like an inspirational book that is supposed to show you that you're not the only one who feels alone in this world. Reading this book has turned on a light for me, the light is showing me that I'm not the only one who hasn't figured their life out yet. I've noticed that since I started reading this book I've had feelings to want to do good things for people and be a better person; sometimes when I'm driving around on a cold night and I see a person walking, I want to pick them up and bring them to their destination. Besides what the book has done for me I'd say it's a must read book that will bring out all emotions, and leave you feeling good about your life.

Television Set

Well this weekend was a good one, didn't have whole mouth full of homework or food so I'm not entirely as gigantic as I thought I would be, and a four day weekend. For J10 we only had to write one blog so I'm guessing everyone used it to write about thanksgiving, so guess what, I'm not going to do that. The whole weekend was going swell; Wednesday night: I just hung around with my friend, Jake at his house; Thursday: My family and I hit up a couple of houses for Thanksgiving, then later that night my sister, Liz, and I hung out with our cousin, Jeff; Friday: All day was a blast I hung out with my friend, Jake at his house; Saturday: I usually wake up to my TV because I leave it on all night but that morning I didn't wake up to my TV and I didn't think anything of it. The rest of that day I hung out with my friend, Alec. When I got home from hanging out I was tired and wanted to go to bed so I tried to turn on my TV. My TV wouldn't make a picture and the only sound I would hear was a few clicks and then it would turn off. You have no idea how angry I get when I'm tired and something isn't working right; I am a cranky short-tempered little person. That night was silent. guess who's getting a new TV for x-mas.

All Week

So to be completely honest, I hate school. I know that's what you hear from anyone who goes to high school but whatever; high school is gross. Not only high school am I sick of but just this week in general. I come to school everyday and give my time, I need a break. Everyday I count down how many classes I have to go before school is done, then I go home hoping for a terrible blizzard, go to bed, wake up, and do it all over again. Last night I had plans to go see W. in the theatre in Mankato because it was supposed to be their only showing but when we finally got there from driving around Mankato like a bunch of crazy people the girl said, "We took it out last Friday." My jaw was literally on the ground, I closed my eyes and all I saw was replays of that part on American History X when he's shot in the bathroom. Over and over again, my week would be a long, sick, and unhopful week; I just knew.

Miss Them So Bad

My sister and one of my best friends are leaving for St. Luis this morning and I'm going to miss them. Liz and Alec are going on a trip with their publication class to a writer's convention, and I'm going to miss them. They're going to be gone from the morning today to Sunday night, and I miss them. I don't know what I'll do; what if they get in an accident and die? I've got to stop worrying or else I'll go insane, but I'll miss them. If something bad happens to them and they never come home everyone can kiss the rest of my life goodbye, because if I know that they're never coming back then I can't live. Yes, I'm a worry wart, but I'll miss them. I think it's bogus that they're leaving after their first two or three hours of school, friends and family won't get a chance to say a good goodbye. They will come back I'm sure. I'm more worried than a scrawny trouble maker in a bar full of bikers.


Did you know there are approximately 61,269 pizzerias in the United States. Americans eat approximately 100 acres of pizza each day, or 350 slices per second.

Licence

Thursday, November 6, 2008, I got my licence. I can't believe I passed. I made myself sick thinking about failing that I could've easily thrown up. Anyways I love having my licence. So far I've driven everywhere in Albert Lea and a little outside of town too. The feeling when I got my licence was so relieving; It was an awesome feeling. I love having my licence.

ELECTION NIGHTdizzl

I'm overcome with extreme happiness. All day I had been hoping for all of the Democratic candidates to be elected and when the night was over I couldn't sleep. When I saw that Obama was elected I almost peed myself, I was as giddy as a little school girl. Of course I went to sleep last night, but when I woke up this morning I almost peed myself again, I saw that Brown, and Walz also were elected. Hah, and then when I saw that Franken and Colman were tied I almost peed myself again, I think that's hilarious!!!!! I peed so much already today. Bush must have made a really bad impression for republicans. Last night I watched the polls on ABC when the commercials where on comedy central's America's Choice, I LOVE JON STEWART and STEVEN COLBERT. When they announced the very few states that McCain got only like two people in the crowd cheered and then everyone laughed. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH I can't believe it. I'm so happy. Can you believe it, I cried when McCain was in the lead for the first hour or so. Yes, I cannot wait for everything to be put back together.

computer#16

Are you kidding me? Today is my birthday, I'm sixteen now. My first hour is study hall and the weird thing is that Mrs. Fiscus is the sub and for some odd reason she wanted me to go to the library really bad so I went; here I am sitting on the computer. The weirdest thing though, when Ms. Fredlund asked what computer I wanted, I said "whatever, doesn't matter." She gave me computer number 16! All the weird things seem to happen to me, and I LOVE it! I guess I do notice those things more than anyone else but I seriously live for this kind of stuff! eeeeeeek! this is going to be an awesome birthday.

Sunday

Wake up at 11:00 and search the web for free vegan recipes for vegan mashed potatoes and gravy because I'm freaking starving. Myspace, then Facebook; everyone's boring, or am I? Watch Holes for the 2999th time because every time I watch that movie I can't help but cry when Zero and his mother are reunited, you'd think I'd be used to it by now but.... I'm a sucker for reuniting, what can I say?
"Put the lime in the coconut and drank'em all up, called the doctor up and said is there nothing i can take to relieve this belly ache....... ahhhh something like that. GOOD SONG. Which reminds me of Practical Magic. GOOD MOVIE

Thanks for reading again.

sick of it

Yes, I'm going to vent again; this is justified because blogs seem like they've been made to vent so I don't give a handful of toilet paper anymore.
GOD, I love the fact that I never get bored anymore and that I always have someone to hangout with, but I hate how my friends that don't go to school anymore get angry with me when they don't hangout with me. It's like, honestly why don't you just ask me to hangout don't assume that I'm going to be the one always to make plans. You know? I mean common, make yourself worth more than you are. JESUS, I'm not the play maker anymore, so get a life you know....


Jeez, I know that was harsh; I had to get it out.
Thanks for reading.

Sleep

My whole world is literally spinning through my eyes. I haven't slept in days and it's getting really upsetting. Have you ever been awake for such a time? You may think it'd be a little fun just to be up all the time, see what's on TV when everyone is asleep, or you could catch up on the latest line of blenders on informative infomercials. Yes, going without sleep is overwhelming, it's a big kick in the pants. Some people have never had this problem before, it's so funny, when I tell them that I haven't slept in days they ask why. Well the answer is pretty obvious, I can't sleep, for some reason my head will not allow for me to rest myself upon a pillow and drift off into la la land. What do I do all night? Well hmmmm, I start out by picking out at least 4 movies, then I order them beginning with a tear jerker, followed by a scary movie or some type of suspense, afterwords a family movie like Peter Pan, lastly I finish up with a comedy just in time for I Love Lucy. Story of your life I know. Thanks for reading.

Pumpkin Patch

Darn, another disappointment....

Last Saturday was supposed to be way far out but it certainly was not. Actually I'm a little frustrated about only one thing, the rest of the day was just fine. The pumpkin patch used to be my favorite place to go to when I was a kid; beside x-mas morning, and the once a year summer vacation to Valley Fair, the pumpkin patch was literally the only thing I looked forward to all year. Mom and Dad would gather us together, even my brother who usually was never around, we'd go there and have a good old time. We'd pick out pumpkins and take them home and carve whimsical faces. Oh, those were the days. Not so fun anymore.

The main disappointment of the trip to the pumpkin patch next to the haunted house being not so haunted anymore and the maze going in a circle, there weren't any pumpkins! There was pumpkins but the sad and droopy ones. I brought an eight year old there and he didn't even feel the festive October warmth that used to be. Man, I've come to think of it, maybe when I was a kid it was the same way, maybe I'm not so childish anymore. Too bad, it could have been a cool place to run off to, ya know?

F.Y.I.

I'm extremely upset about John McCain's "Straight Talk" campaign. Reason for that matter is that I'm not one bit a supporter of McCain, I'm Obama all the way. John McCain must have seen A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors to come up with such a name. In the movie, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, the last few kids on elm street all are put into a psych ward becasue of their nightmares. The psych ward has a room where everyone talks about their feelings with eachother; kind of sort of like AA meetings. Anyways the therapists always say before they start to talk, "straight talk only in this room." That is the exact reason for my "Straight talk only" blog. I love A Nightmare on Elm Street movies. I found out about McCain's campaign after I gave the name to my blog.

Snow

Don't you love that time of year when it's freezing cold; when you can snuggle up in blankets and sip hot cocoa. Around this time I'm hating the cold and the snow, I'm sick of the muddy slush, and I'm hating the icy roads. As the saying goes, "You don't know what you've got till it's gone," I'm always missing what I had before. When it was hot and humid outside I wanted it to be fall; fall is actually my favorite season. After some time of fall I begin to want snow and winter jackets. Then when it's winter for a while I want spring to come, but let's face it spring in Minnesota isn't much of a carton of ice cream; it's more like a melted carton of ice cream, literally. Winter has to be pretty bad to want spring in Minnesota. Anyways, I just cannot wait for snow.

Take a joke!

I was raised up from a jokester and a very angry yet humorous man. On top of all that my uncle has to be the most sarcastic man you'll ever meet. You probably get the idea; ever since birth my life has been one enormous joke, a big gigantic sarcastic pulling of my leg. This is how I ended up, some people think I'm rude, or cranky, or sarcastic, or the ever so popular "bitch." I've also been able to pick up the name freak or psycho here and there, but I'm okay. Whatever may come, I'll always be this way because I like being kinda quirky.



No one ever seems to get it. When I'm joking I rarely say "just kidding," because I already feel like I've belittled you by just having to sit with you in awkward silence because you can't get a joke unless it begins with "your mom." If you didn't get a joke I said then don't ask because it's not worth it anymore. I'm a very sarcastic person and I'm aware of this. One thing that I can't joke about enough is the presidential election; I'm a democrat and I love to make jokes about George Bush, John McCain, Dick Cheney, and Sarah Palin. If that offends you then you can shove it, because I will not stop thinking the way I do and I will not stop saying what I want. Being so opinionated does make me come off as a bitch but so far I'm okay. After you're done talking to me for the first time and you think I'm not nice or that I'm rude, it's okay; I like being this way, people respect that kind of stuff in the real world.

out of body experience

Sleep, those little slices of death; Oh how I loathe them. -Edgar Allen Poe. If you've ever watched, A Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, you'll notice that this quote is the intro to the film. Normally when someone wants to talk to me about their dream I'm not really interested unless it involves real life things that could happen. I really want to tell about my dream.

Nights ago I was dreaming; the dream seemed so real and so terrifying, so terrifying that when I woke up I was glad to be at my house. I can't believe it; I was actually glad to be in my bed freezing to death because I forgot to shut my window. Maybe my dream occurred because I was cold, but whatever It may be I experienced the weirdest dream of my life.

I don't know about you but I've never had my head cut off and sewed back on. During my "out of body experience" I had my head cut off and sewed back on again. I was in a shopping mall, to be specific I was in the Northbridge mall just minding my own business when all of a sudden I'm not there anymore but I'm in Clair's. Little did I know, I was being stalked by a really attractive middle aged man. The weird thing about this was that I knew it was happening but the me in the dream had no idea. Then I make eye contact with him and suddenly we're in love. For some reason it seemed okay in my mind, but thinking about it now makes me nauseous. I may not remember this part but in an instant we were in his house, all happy with each other. This man was loaded and his house made it show.

I wanted to show off my lover and his house to all of my friends, so I invited them over for dinner. once they were there, the man took all of us down to his basement. In this basement was knives and blood everywhere, but again I didn't realize at the time that it was bad. He showed all of us his things, then he dismissed everyone but my sister and me. Before I knew it my head, fingers, and my sisters toes were cut off. Another odd thing about this was that it didn't seem to matter that he cut of my head, my fingers, and my sister's toes; I was still in love with the guy.

This dream is extremely weird, I know. As a matter of fact I haven't remembered a dream this well since I was 5. For that being true it is the reason why I'm calling it an "out of body experience."

After he cut off my head he sewed it back on but still I lacked fingers; my sister had yet to get back her toes also. I know it's not possible to walk without toes but that's why it's a dream. My sister and I went swimming in his pool afterwards with our friends. No body seemed to notice anything. We went into the hot tub, that's when everyone started noticing that my head was slipping off of my body. I noticed that the man was walking toward me so I showed him my problem and he then fixed it for good. He also fixed my fingers and Liz's toes. I was still in love with him. As everyone knows, I'm allergic to my earrings, which makes my ears fake and bleed often. The man fixed my problem and everything was okay.

My dream was seriously weird and I can't believe myself for posting it on the Internet but I think it's interesting. The most interesting thing about it was that the next day I had a kink in my neck and my hands were asleep. I don't know about Liz, she's always in pain on her feet. Another thing to chew on was that I had a weird line indent thing around my neck.

I'm sorry if I creeped you out in anyway; or made you uncomfortable, or sick, or bored.
take it easy

p.s. Nothing wrong and perverted happened in the dream you sickos. I told you everything that I remembered.

Madeline

Last Valentine's day I was confronted with a semi life changing decision. The decision to choose if I wanted to take care of a living animal for the rest of the animal's life, or to let the animal be eaten by a snake whose name was, Snakey. Killer name right? I kid you not the snake's name is totally Snakey. Anyways I chose to take care of the living animal. At first my parents were angry with my decision making behind their back, but they learned to love Madeline. Madeline is the name of my pet rat. I know the word "rat" can be a little scary and gross sounding at first but they are one of the nicest animals ever. I have a pet rat names Madeline.
Madeline is a cute black rat with a white belly. She loves to chew on things and is very playful. Her ears are huge and she is very little. I love Madeline. I chose the name Madeline because the day before I got her I had watched the movie"Madeline", and I loved the name.

WES ANDERSON

A few years ago I was flipping through channels when I came across a movie that I happened to be very fond of at the time. The movie as I can recall was, "Zoolander;" a comedy about a once famous male model who is struggling to not be outshone by another male model. The movie was on Comedy Central, one of my favorite television stations and because of this moment it is the first television station that I turn the channel to before I start the surfing. I watched the rest of Zoolander and waited through the credits to see what would be on next. I wasn't too ecstatic when I saw what was on next; I thought it would be some stupid teenagers going out, doing drugs, falling in love, and somehow it would be funny. Being as miserably bored as myself I gave it a chance. Heard of it or not but the movie I underestimated was a Wes Anderson and Criterton Collection classic; "The Royal Tenenbaums." From the beginning to the end of the movie I was sitting at least 1 foot from my 19 inch television. This movie happens to be one of my favorite movies of all time and that will never change. Knowing how incredibly awesome the movie was I became interested in the director/ writer; Wes Anderson. Wes Anderson has been the director of only 8 films, but he is working on an animation of the Roald Dahl book, "Fantastic Mr. Fox;" I can't be anymore excited for it. Go out and rent a Wes Anderson film today; I hope you'll love it.

The worst feeling

The feeling of not being able to concentrate on anything but other people's annoyance. I can't stand myself when I can only stand to sit around. Today I have a mondo headache and Ican't get it to go away.Why is it that no one seems to care when you feel sick but when they feel sick they expect the world. All of it frustrates me.

The Funniest thing

Have you ever blanked out?












After hours of sitting and watching the clock I've finally come up with an idea or what ever you'd call it. Drawing a blank. I hate when I do the things such as drawing blanks but I do it and so does everyone else. Getting over it as I go.

Animal Rights

Innocent animals everywhere are being tortured for the unnecessary human needs. Animals have rights too. It has been proven that a human can live without eating meat, wearing fur and wool, drinking milk, eating eggs, and wearing animal tested products. I know this is true because I am a vegan, which means that I live my daily life without using any animal products. You may think that eating eggs, drinking milk, and eating dairy products is no big deal but it really is. How do you think it feels to be sucked on all day. In one glass of milk is over 135 million pus cells, 51 milligrams of cholesterol, 300 calories, 16 grams of fat, growth hormones, far amounts of scabs, blood, and acidic protein which leeches calcium from bones! Not only is the dairy industry disappointing but there are still circus animals, fur farm animals, and meat industry.
You go to the circus and see all of the animals, you think about how pretty they look and how talented they are but in reality they aren't that way to begin with. Circus animals have it pretty bad; they're put in circus training camps were they are taught how to perform and behave. Unfortunately the circus animals don't like to learn how to perform so they are whupped, stabbed, and so much more. It's terrible how careless the animal tamers are to the circus animals. Sometimes animals will rebel and break free into cities which results in killing many civilians, then killing the circus animal. I think that what happens is wrong but not only are circus animals on my mind but fur animals as well.
At fur farms animals are fed everyday but not to help them, only to help the person who is buying the animal's fur. I think killing an animal just for his/her fur is wrong and disgraceful. If you have a problem about not wearing real fur there is always foux fur it looks like the real thing, costs less, smells nicer, and is easier to wash. Mainly the thing about fur farms that catches my attention is that the animal doesn't even have to die by natural causes; usually the animal is scalped while still alive. How would you like to be scalped alive? The main thing I'm sure all people think about when they hear animal rights is animal slaughtering.
Slaughtering of animals couldn't be anymore disgusting. As if killing the animal isn't torture enough; farms that raise animals who are slaughtered are uncleanly and tight spaced. The animals on the farms are beaten violently and sometimes so badly beaten that they can't even stand on their own. Trucks that take the animals to slaughtering factories are so crowded that the animals can die on the way there. Chickens are fed so many growth hormones that they get too big to even hold their own body weight; when they get too big their legs break. I know everything about the meat industry is extremely wrong. There is way more I could tell about animal rights but I have to move on to animal testing.
Testing on animals is terribly sad; the animals that are tested on are innocent animals who don't deserve to be there. Some people will look past animal testing but it is really a situation that should be taken care of. You and other people may not know this but most of the time the animals are hurt severely from it. How would you like to be tested on by something that could possibly burn all of your skin off? Would you ever in your life want to have your head cut open and brain connected to a machine?
My overall opinion on these problems is that animal cruelty needs to be stopped. I wish animal cruelty would stop because it's not peaceful. You can sit around and call yourself an environmentalist that eats meat but you'll be wrong. If an environmentalist cares about the earth and having peace, then why in the world would they agree with the torture of innocent animals? To learn more about animal rights you can go to Peta2.com; it's a non-profit organization that informs about animal rights and tells you ways that you can be nice to animals.

If you want to learn more about this problem go to youtube and search the keyword, "30 reasons why 2 go vegetarian." Trust me; if you're a visual learner, you're guaranteed to learn.
