Give A Little Bit

Just got back from Co-town with Lauren...we shopped about 6 hours, so I'm wiped! Got some cool stuff, though!

What's happened since Tuesday? Your guess is as good as mine right about now. Ah, yes, went to a banquet Tuesday night. I guess Wayne Gretzke's quote fits just about perfectly, "You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take". I tried!!! Still a bit frusterated, though, shouldn't have happened that way. :( Came home and did homework till an ungodly hour, as far as I can remember.

Had weightlifting on Wednesday, and I honestly don't remember Wednesday at all. BAD MEMORY SUCKS!!! (This is an add-in...wrote this piece after I wrote about Friday, then I remembered Wednesday!) We went on our Civics class field trip. Of course, Obermiller picks the hottest day of the week to go, and everyone is just g-ross. Peter tried to be a good tour guide, but it didn't work. Everyone was hot and mad. Then Megan totally soaked her shirt to cool off, and that was not a bad idea. I opted out, though. Didn't learn anything, don't think I was enlightened in any way, shape, or form, but we didn't have to sit in the classroom, so I guess it was ok.

There was a rumor going around for quite some time that us weightlifters were gonna get pizza on the last day of weightlifting from Coach Salmon. Well, MeAndLauren had other commitments, namely, the Timberland game! So we bailed early, and we didn't get any pizza out of the deal - what a rip. I heard they had sandwiches...sounds like we missed out - not! So Lauren's momma picked us up and we went to Central Dairy..."Hey, we're out eating ice cream...talk on the phone!!!" Chocolate chip cookie dough in a waffle cone...mmmmm! So then we were really early to the game and did some crazy stuff (aka blowing out a speaker) - I swear, it really wasn't us!!! Lauren did hit me in the head with a rock though, and somehow that got us thinkin all the way back to Big Surf last summer...talk about crazy! But seriously, what kind of friend hits you in the head with a rock?!? Let me just say that we are very loved by some people (note sarcasm). It's just not our fault that they are anti-social/don't want to visit with us!!! Deep down, they really do though. Anyway, we got some cool t-shirts and then Lauren caught another one..."It's mine now!" "I'm getting a dang hot dog" "You need to go on a misson - see what you can get for 50 cents" "Do you have paper and a pen? A napkin and a pencil?" "Can you sing soprano?" "Waaaay over there!!!" "Should I just go stick this in the corner?" "No, throw it like a javelin" "Where's the yellow card, ref?" "In your mouth" Mad props on that one! :D And MeAndLauren's infamous conversations...can't wait to see what happens! "Maybe if I throw a rock on your head..." "We're on a mission - like Mission Impossible" "I'm not goin in there...it's your turn!" "Catch this" "You are the worst ever!" "Hide this so they can't use it!" Good time, as always! And the rain..."We're gonna die!" "Where'd everybody go?"

Woke up glad that it was Friday...running very low on sleep, very low. Geometry - got an 8.5 on my quiz and an A- in the class...absoultely wonderful (again, sarcasm). If there is one thing that I truely wish would be obliterated from the earth, it would be math. Geometry, at least. You know why? I'll save it for the editorial...anyway, Trey and I didn't have to do our skit for drama because some people are stupid and immature and waste a bunch of time, so we didn't have enough class time to perform it. Drove from Simonsen to Wally World cuz G-ma was getting her hair done at Cost Cutters, then drove her to JCMG for physical therapy. After that, we went to Mickey D's and then back to G-ma's. Went home and then just messed around and finally left to go to Lauren's. Talk about a crazy night! "I always get hungry when I get here!" "What's the name of this song?" "I don't know, I just know all the words" And the list goes on and on, but no one would understand any of it, because I don't think we even did! Stayed up really late, and I understand that some very interesting conversations took place that I was unaware of...holy cow.

Went to Co-town and tore up the shopping scene today - hot guys galore! Obviously, my question of the day..."Why don't I have one?" Couldn't find a cute purse to save my soul, and that made me really sad. But I managed to blow $45 bucks, anyway (all I had with me!), so I guess it was productive, and if not that, super fun!

Editorial time! First off, the math thing. I just now realized the reason I loathe math - there is no expression or creativity, no room to be yourself, no gray area. It's just (to all you Trinity kids) "black or white". And that is why I hate it. You are right or wrong. There's no space or freedom, nothing fun or entertaining (that's for sure!). Maybe it's fighting what I hate - the being "wrong" thing, but isn't creativity taking just as big of a chance of being wrong? And not just that, when you're giving out your own actual ideas or thoughts, if you're "wrong", then that seems like it would be harder than just being "black or white" wrong. My thoughts.
I have had more drama in this last month than I have in my entire life. And I hate it. Most people I know thrive off of it. I wish it would die. I guess it keeps things a bit interesting, but I HATE it. It's so stupid - it's just...drama.
I saw this quote and thought, "How awesome is that?" and it goes like this: "The best times are the ones you can't explain, you just had to be there" Most of the time when I try to tell funny stuff that happens, I'm the only one that gets it, and that's the best. :D
I'm too picky...hopefully it will pay off in the end. It's just one of those things that you have to choose one way or the other, and you will never know how the opposite path would have turned out, but you can't waste your life on "what ifs" or you'll miss what's in front of you. Just a personal thing.


"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling that you'll find love actually is all around"


Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my love to you
See the man with the lonely eyes
Take his hand, you'll be suprised

So I'll give a little bit
I'll give a lttle bit of my life for you
So give a little bit
Give a little bit of your time to me
Now’s the time that we need to share
So send a smile, we’re on our way back home
Don't you need to feel at home

So give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my life for you
Now's the time we need to share
So send a smile, we're on our way back home
Sing it tonight
