O_o - My life in a nutshell.


So yeah. I haven't updated in a "long time," right?

I blame the manatees.



But...
Here's a summary of the events in the past month or so.


    Nosebleeds.
Sounds harmless, but they wouldn't stop coming. Almost every day. One time I started choking on my own blood that wouldn't stop coming down my throat. And don't even tell me that I should have put my head forward, because I did. It continued for around 45 minutes.
   So my distressed mother sent me to the doctors for a check-up.
      
        He prescribed me a bottle of corticosteroids for a week.




    Saw Flightplan with the kind-hearted Kyndal. I thought it was one of the best movies I've seen in awhile. Darn dangerously dramatic.




    Made the biggest mistake of my life and agreed to go to the "dance hall" for teenagers from ages 14-1
8, Cowboys, with CJ.
    Boy, that was hell. Basically I just observed preppy kids and gangsta gangstas performing dry sex in a massive orgy.
    It totally sucked. I just sat on a barstool and took notes from a semi-attractive freak dancer.
    Well, not really, but I was insanely bored and disgusted with the terrible music (rap and country)

   

    So then there was this note when I got home. My 57 year-old dad had left it for my 52 year-old mom.
    You can read it for yourself, I found it slightly amusing...




    My parents are large children.




    Then I went to a piano festival. Played a duet called Jubilation with a azn girl who also goes to my piano teacher's.  And I played a solo, a prelude by Bach. Aced 'em, got superior plus's for both.
    But now I have to work on a really difficult piece by Rachmaninoff. It's complicated and tough, and it's for an actual contest next month. Bah.
  
    Then my dear Erin visited Arlington! It was a delightful experience, and I miss her very much.


Wow.
 

    Afterwards, I went to Stephanie R's 15th birthday party with Cali, Sandy, Amanda, Mike, and a few others in Amanda's huge underground basement. It was real fun. All together, I probably ate around a hundred sour-sugar worm things and chocolate-covered peanuts. And then like six pieces of pizza, and all the icing from three cupcakes in one big mouthful. While being read my fortune from silly Tarot Cards by Amanda's mom. Hahah.

    After that week, I went to the biggest haunted house in the world on Friday night with Kyndal, Taylar & her friend, and Lizzy & her boyfriend. Well, supposedly. It's called Cutting Edge
. It was awesome. There were psychotomimetic illusion walkways, an exciting exorcism, a never-ending maze, and an unfathomable amount of bubbles at the end. And when I say unfathomable - I mean unfathomable.
    Imagine you're in a hallway of so many bubbles, you can't see the floor, the ceiling, or the walls, and you can hardly breathe.
    I'm not joking. I had been there once before, so I knew to make myself a little breathing space. The others didn't, and they suffered for it. Kyndal and Lizzy paniced in the soapy chaos, but I won't go into the rest. I was excited and wanted to stay in the bubbles, but yeah.




    And then! Two days later, Sunday the 23rd, I went to the Edge Fall Homecoming at the Smirnoff in Dallas along with Kyndal, Brenna, Adam, Dorian, & Matt. There was almost twenty bands. It was magnificent.
   
    A list of some of the bands that went -
-30 Seconds from Mars
-All-American Rejects
-Avenged Sevenfold
-Audioslave
-Cold
-Fall Out Boy
-Institute
-Panic! At the Disco
-Seether
-the Starting Line
-Yellowcard
  -& more

    Other than it being extremely cold outside, it was great. All the bands were awesome. I didn't get to see the Starting Line though, since they were at the small stage when we were at the bigger one, so I was a bit disappointed.
    But the rest of the bands I did see! Unfortunately we weren't in the pit though, so it wasn't very close-up. I still don't know which was my favorite, they were all good.
    Oh well, it was still cool. Literally.


    Ah, so now I have a myspace. Well, I'm actually using it, that is. http://www.myspace.com/chiwowo
    It's addictive, and has been drawing me away from beautimous xanga, my ol' internet home.
    And I also created a deviantart. It's not much yet though. But it's at http://chiwowo.deviantart.com


And yeah, as many of you know, for crazy hair day I decided to do my hair a slight blue color.



Well, maybe not slight. But no hair photoshopping there!


Quotes from my teachers about my blueness -
    "Nice pink hair!" - Cadenhead, Computer Science
    "It's like straw." - Williams, Web Mastering
    "Me gusta tu pelo azul!" - Turney, Spanish II
    "Subtle." - Tracy, English II

and a random convo from my schoolbus -
    Girl #1 - "What's that bracelet on your wrist?"
    Brad - "Oh, I got it from Brunei."
    Girl #2 - "Is that your girlfriend?"


I must say... I laughed.

Alrighty. I've taken note that my last post was just a tad bit too long.


So this one will be much shorter, just for you lazy-arse people! Dang!


Ok. I did a lot of stuff. But screw that all, because it'll take forever to write.


So basically, last Friday I went to a 
My Chemical Romance,
A
lkaline Trio
, & Reggie
concert at the
Nokia Center in Grand Prarie.


Words
cannot express.

Go to my lovely Kyndal's xanga for the whole story.

But mine shall just have the pictures I took.
The quality blows because it was a $5 disposable camera, but hey, they're better than nothing.




Me & Kyndal before the concert starts. WOW we look like hookers. Lmao.



Brenna & Jake lookin' sharp!

 

Alkaline Trio performing. Love  'em.



Alkaline Trio again!



Gerard Way soakin' up all the attention.



Gerard
getting everyone to put their hands in the air.




Gerard singing. Damn these pictures don't do justice.




And another picture of the Chemical Romance-age.


Yeah, sorry the pictures blow. But I did the best I could with that piece of junk.


Remember - Kyndal's
xanga for more info. If you care.

It seems like I haven't updated in months. It's been hectic lately, with ups and downs. But that's life.

I'm short on time here, like usual.. so this will be short.. er than usual.

Ok. I did a lot my second week of school. What I don't remember though, really. That weekend I went to River Legacy & more with Kyndal, Taylar, Jake, & Lauren. Here's just a few of the pictures that were taken.



Me and Kyndal's 52-oz QT drinks. Only $1.29.  How good is that?!?


A "truckousine" that we saw, driving to River Legacy.


Lauren sitting on the ground with Benny, Kyndal & Taylar's male chihuahua.


Me dying from the heat. But still happy about it.


The animals are being fed!!! ~ Just kiddin'.  Sorry Jake!


Kyndal shocked at the hentai pr0n on her computer. I'm not.


Jake's the animal's playground! =)


Lauren, with Kyndal's hamster in her cleavage. I wonder what she does with other animals...


You'd probably only understand this if you were there. Hint: Tourette's Syndrome.

K, that's all for that weekend. Oh - and if you want to see pictures from the weekend before that, go to Kyndal's xanga.


Speaking of Kyndal, she made this silly poster of me.



Talented girl, 'ain't' she? Her sister is too. You'll see in the upcoming pictures, from our little.. no, big Homecoming buying spree.



We went to Hobby Lobby for our supplies. I was intimidated by all the choices already.


Kyndal checkin' me out, obviously.


I look like a wolf. I'm gonna eat you. Kyndal approves. As long as I don't eat her too.


Taylar lookin' stunning with the peacock-feathered-circle-frame-thingy.


Let the crazy supply buying start!


Um, no. Baby rattles are a bit too extreme for me, kthx.


We decided to decorate our mums and garters with tampons. Haha not really. It just looked SO tasty...


Our cart. When it was like half full. You'd never expect that you could buy a pretty decent cell phone instead of that junk. -sigh-


Me in Hobby Lobby. I dyed my hair again. Not. I wish 


Kyndal's all psyched about spending so much money, and I'm just like "WTF HAVE I DONE?!" They were the lightest bags of $110 I have ever carried. I've never spent that much money on such useless things in my life. Oh well, it's not like I paid all of it anyway.


Taylar gets right to work on my garter!


While Kyndal plays with Benny on the bed.


Possessed dog, I tell you.


Meh, it's not like I did much either.


AND THE FINAL PRODUCT!

Taylar is frickin' awesome! <3

By the way. Our garter and mum are very original, kthx. On them, we have...
 -a bird centerpiece
 -berries
 -chiles
 -a miniature ice bag
 -little deer
 -ponies
 -miniature milk bottles
 -a scary wolf
 -AND BEST OF ALL, GOOGLEY EYES!!!

Haha, they rock. I'm sure I'm going to get a lot of awkward looks in the hallway. But who cares. It's different.

The next day, we went to a Comedy Club at the Bob Duncan Center, where I have my piano recitals at every May. We saw "Table for Six", who were pretty funny. I have to go practice a piano duet in like 5 minutes so I can't put all the pictures, though. But it was hilarious. Not to mention the awesome Arabian wedding next door. That was 'da bomb. Too bad I couldn't like stay in there, but the music was krunk, yo'.


Kyndal's interpretation of the pedestrian crossing, first done by a guy from "Table for Six". I think she forgot to take the brush out of her hair though. Lmao.

Lyke oh-my-gawd.

These last two weeks have been iiiiiinsaane!!!
Sorry for not posting for quite some time. I've just been reeeeeally busy. Last week I was out of the house so much, and getting ready for school, and this week has been just school and homework and all that jazz...


Bleh, so I guess I'll start from my second week in August...
  • Went to see Charlie & the Chocolate Factory with Emily & Lauren. It was interesting. lol.
  • Then went to the mall with Kyndal & Jake. Heh, when we were there, I had some spare Bruneian coins, which are about the size of a quarter. So, I gave the lady at Sonic one of them mixed in with quarters, and she didn't even notice. It was pretty funny. And then we saw The Skeleton Key. Not the best movie, it was okay I guess. A few days later I actually found a key on the side of the road similar to the one in the movie...
  • After the mall, I went to my neighbor's home-made ice cream party. Turns out that the ice cream churner broke, so we just ate regular icecream. It was still gooood though...
  • And of course I went to the park with (name removed at request of owner) a lot. He's grrreat. <3
  • Oh wow. When me and my dad were in the car, he was like, "Son, you know I still haven't given you the talk about the birds & the bees. Your mother has bought a plastic banana for me to show you what to do. Although, we can just tell her we discussed it if you want." Which I most definitely would have rather done. I can't BELIEVE my mom bought a PLASTIC BANANA. She is DERANGED.

 

So, here's the events of school.

  • Well, so I started back at Martin High on August 15th.
  • I got to see so many of my old friends, and I've already made some new friends too. I love all of you guys!
  • This week, about six people I didn't even know came up to me saying that they saw my xanga. All younger than me though. It's funny how older kids don't say anything. Even when I leave them a hugemongous comment too.
  • I guess I like my classes. In almost all of them, I know barely anyone in the class, though. Oh well, things'll work out. I love my A-Day classes, they're pretty fun. Chem, Comp Sci, and Litmag definitely. I'm glad to have Litmag, since I have like three of my best friends in there. Chem seems fun too. Comp Sci because I'm a computer nerd and I like that stuff. I also have World History that day, it's alright. Very easy so far.
  • My B-Day classes, not so much. The first one, Web Mastering, is all fine and dandy. I'm 99% sure it's going to be my easiest class this year. But the others... oh sweet mother of pearl.
    The three T's.
    Algebra II - Turner.
    Spanish II - Turney.
    English II - Tracy.
    I think these are already going to be hell. But I hope not. Algebra's ok right now, but it's definitely going to get harder. Spanish, I want my old teacher. This one is bleh. And English, oh God. She's already said we're going to do what I despise the most, writing. Writing when I don't want to write on the subject, that is. And I especially hate timed-writing. Argh. Then when I was reading a sentence for a vocabulary word in there, these guys on the other side of the room were like "what an emo fag!" And the teacher didn't even hear I guess... Oh well. Doesn't matter to me. I'll just have to see what happens.
  • Yeah.. and in Literary Magazine, on Thursday, we chose "unbridled" as the theme for the whole magazine. *I* think it's a bad choice. I mean, I understand how the word means free from constraint and all that, like 'a horse being unbridled and running free' (cough), but how are we supposed to incorporate that into the magazine?! Blurring the lines, perspective, diversity, all those other suggestions would have been a lot better in my opinion. But, my vote wasn't enough. I'll just deal with it, lol. I just hope we didn't screw ourselves over by choosing "unbridled."
And now forrrr....... First Event!

  • For those of you that don't know, First Event is our school's.. first event. They have sign-ups for clubs & sports, tons of T-shirt selling, food, etcetera.
  • So, I went with Kyndal, Jake, & Taylar there. They're loads of fun.
  • I signed up for art club earlier today, and then film club and key club. And of course I'll be in Spectrum again. Even though we meet like once every two months. -.-
  • Me and Kyndal walked around everywhere for awhile, it was entertaining. The best part of it all was the step team though. They were definitely "krunk, 'fo shizzle." Shaniqua & Latisha were trippin', yo. Heheh Caitlin.
  • So after the Steppers, I had to go work for the Art Club. We didn't even do anything art-ish really. I just took smoothie orders for awhile, and helped carry the equipment. The smoothie lady Rhonda gave me a big free smoothie though! And everyone else got little small cups. Haha I felt speshul!  Although, that was my second smoothie, lol. I felt a bit bloated after I drank both.
  • And then! After my duties were finally done, me and Kyndal ran through the sprinklers! We had some hot & wet action goin' on there. Lol jk. I felt sooo cold actually, haha. But I felt unbridled. YES. I know what our magazine's cover will be now. Lmao.


Yup, that was my two week adventure. Words can't really capture all of it, though.
There's no Brunei enstallment this time though, due to the lengthiness I've already written, my laziness, and people waiting for me to actually post this, lol


Haha, and this is something the talented Kyndal made for me a while back, the glasses are from a crazy flash called Shig...
