ok, it’s kind of late for this but yeah pats!!!!  those dudes rock my socks off!  And they can actually win…unlike SOME teams around here…actually i’m still a loyal red sox fan so never mind.

 

 

 

anyway, i will now dedicate the rest of this post to my hate of spiders.

 

 

 

 

 

I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!!

 

They are so UGLY and FREAKISH!!  What is their PROBLEM!?!?  why do they even exist???   ugh ugh ugh they are so gross and scary and they move fast and they have eight cursed legs and i HATE THEM!!!

 

last friday, i got home around 10:00 and it had been a long week and i was tired so i went up to bed around 10:30.  I was just lying there innocently, with my light on reading romeo and juliet for english.  okokok i’ll admit it, i was reading the sweet valley twins version, Romeo and Two Juliets, in which jessica wants to try out for juliet in the school play, but she gets sick and elizabeth knows the part, so she tries out pretending to be jessica!!!  but then elizabeth decides she wants to keep the part when she finds out they got it, and the twins get in a HUGE FIGHT!!!  gassssppp.   anyway, it was very enriching.

 

so, there i am just chilling out and catching up on some rest, finally.  THEN, out of the corner of my eye, i see something move.  SOMETHING ON MY BED.  something big.  something hairy. something…

 

WITH EIGHT LEGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

for a second i just lay there frozen with fear.  then i screamed, threw the book into lexington, and leaped up from my bed.  the spider was like SIX INCHES away from me and it was moving really really fast across my blanket.

 

i stood there shaking about four feet away as the cursed thing climbed off my blanket and started crawling across the matress.  it was like the size of a nickel maybe, and it was brown and hairy and had these two big antenna things.  so anyway it was scampering all over my bed and i yanked all the blankets back so i could at least keep track of where it went.  i started swearing under my breath and spazzing and I HATE SPIDERS.  it would stop for a while and then suddenly start running again and i would jump and scream and freak out.  but i couldn’t run out of my room because then i wouldn’t know where it went and i would have to sleep knowing that the damn thing was probably plotting its revenge on me an inch away.  so i started grabbing tissues and randomly freaking out and throwing them on it, i don’t know why.  it didn’t work.

 

finally after it stopped moving for like 15 seconds, i dashed out of my room and screamed at my little brother to come kill it.  he came up and was trying to get it with a napkin or something, and meanwhile i was screaming, “DON’T SQUISH IT ON MY BED!  I DON’T WANT SPIDER GUTS ON MY BED!!!!!!!!” finally he picked it up with the napkin and flushed it down the toilet.  relief.

 

but the saga of the spider still lives on!!!  for almost a week, until I changed my sheets,  i wouldn’t touch the side of my bed that it was on.  my bed is covered in junk…books, papers, clothes, etc., that i never pick up, i just sleep in the middle of it.  so i had to move it all to the “good” side and sleep in a tiny little ball as far away from where the “spider cooties” were.  haha i’m such a dork.  the worst part is, though, that spiders are getting into my room somehow and WHAT IF ANOTHER ONE COMES!?!?

 

death to spiders.

 

 

   

i wanted to make el picture the whole background, but it wouldn’t let me.  how do you put music in????????  ok smart computer people, i know i’m dumb, but is it possible to get it from kazaa?  Anyway, I made a cd on sat. and it rules!!!  it has 3 “tropical” songs on it.  i want to go to barbados with kenny chesney. 


     he rocks.


last weekend was the FIRST one in at least a month without a ton of homework.  i ran in a track meet, made brownies :), practiced piano for an hour straight sun., and like 45 min. saturday, watched catch me if you can (THAT MOVIE RULES), made my cd (it took like 3 hours cause ONE SONG took 15 minutes longer than the others and then when it was almost done it just randomly stopped downloading and i was like brrrraaaughhhhh but anyway) and yeaahh…oh right i also read 4 babysitters club books.  haha those books are so amusing. but anywayyy i write in xanga way too much so i’ll shut up and not write again until friday maybe, actually i probably will

does this look AWFUL???  i know it does.  but i don’t feel like changing it again and i’m really bored of my old one


 


–edit–


I really need to change my xanga name…but i don’t know how/what to change it to…anyway i will explain how it came into being so u don’t think it’s completely randoom: around halloween mr. lester asked us to name his ghord (definitely spelled wrong, it’s a kind of bumpy pumpkin thing) and we were supposed to submit names anonymously and he’s choose one.  so tessa remembered how in 6th grade i made up the nickname “Bumpy Rose” for…a certain person…and it caught on, temporarily.  so anyway, we wanted to name it that b/c the ghord was bumpy, get it?  yes i’m sure you do.  but to add a little spice to it we decided to change it to Bumpy Winnifred.  why?  because at that point, a bunch of our friends was obsessed with the movie Hocus Pocus (we had rented it on like 3 different nights, yes, we’re weird), and the main character was named Winnifred (Winifred?).  So to make a long story short Mr. Lester didn’t choose Bumpy Winnifred for his ghord, which was a very mournful thing.  And a few days later, I was making my xanga, so instead of letting the name be lost forever i adopted it.


and that is how bumpywinnifred came into being, but nobody knows that except tessa who doesn’t have a xanga, everyone else thinks i’m a freak so i need to change it  


this weekend was full-blown history day except for a 2-hr. track meet break (i left after my race)…finally finished my 14 pages of paper, then had to find a way to take out 2 1/2 pages of stuff because it was too long, which was extremely hard since it was all important.  also every time i turn around the format of my paper is screwed up again and i have to go through the whole thing fixing it.


then the pictures…using the digital camera/videocamera thing to take pictures of pictures in books…gah…connecting it to the computer, learning how to use adobe photoshop…getting the pictures onto the paper which of course caused the whole format to go to hell once again…


anyway next week there’s a math test and i am awful in math right now so i have to study and then midterms, i can’t take another 2 weeks of this torture, i have been living in this stupid stressful hermitlike, furiously-typing away-at-your-computer life for TOO LONG….but midterms will bring more badness


 


        


                     

i was going to say something deep…but then i realize people i don’t recognize are reading my xanga and not the regular katientheresa but that’s all cool, wow people actually READ THIS how exciting!!! 🙂 

 

Christmas is pretty cool…Americans are such spoiled, wasteful, fat overeaters though.  we stink. 

I’m sooo nervous for the meeeeeet!!  aaaah what if I die?  It’s just the JV 600…i thought i’d be running longer than that, that’s practically not even long distance!  Oh well I think all the long-distance freshmen except one are doing the 600 so whatever.  My goal:  to beat SOMEBODY!  If I lose I’ll DIEEE!!!  Especially if it’s like by 1/2 a lap.  lol I can just see that happening.



hahahahahaha it’s me!  lol lol


AAggghhh….1 1/2 laps (around a full track) sounds so easy…yeah whatever just sprint it, it’ll be over so and then you can die!  But when you’re actually running it it ain’t cool!  At least I shall have moral support from Tessa and Katie (?) if I collapse and die and everyone laughs at me.  hehe…i’m soo neerrvoous!  I can’t even do my homework which I REALLY NEED to be doing!!

School was okay but track was bad .  We were running and I stunk and I had to run back 1/2way through the hill workout because I wasn’t feeling that good today, and track made it a lot worse.  Everyone’s going to think I’m such a slacker now.  THen when I got home my throat hurt and I had a really bad stomach ache and I couldn’t do any work.  So now I have a ton to do and it’s late and I’ll be up till one as always.  “It’s a vicious cycle” as fat bastard says!  lol.  I’m so bad at track, if I don’t REALLY get into shape soon that just isn’t cool because I’ve been running so much to prepare and I still am the worst on the team!  Maybe I should’ve stuck w/ basketball. Well anyways…this is a monumental xanga entry…it’s my first complaining one.  yeah who cares though, i’m basically complaining to myself…and Katie R…and Theresa…they’re the only ones that read it!  haha I think my xanga was a failure.
