Urgh!

now im driving myself crazy trying to remember what song it was! need to write these things down!
i wonder if there even was a song. that would be so like me...like just KNOWING that i had to call george last night but not knowing why, then i realized it was really kaity i had to call...haha.

The Blog

I see what everyone means about the blog dying out a bit...but maybe this is just cuz we mostly know what we're all doing every day and it isnt very exciting?
I have no plans for the weekend, as of yet, tho i need to talk to my boss to see if im working. I kinda hope i am, because i lent my twilight to a turkish girl that wont be in the country for much longer...
today in exploratory we made PB&J sandwichs at each other's instructions and cracked up laughing at the stupid mistakes/leavings out/jelly flinging everywhere/etc. Several of the boys had about 5 sandwichs, cuz no one wanted theirs...soon we'll start the real class tho.
and...not much else going on (that im willing to post about, anyway, haha). so, i shall go, and check the retarded teen ink emails i got, and look up song lyrics (i 4get which song, but im sure itll come back to me soon.)
ttyl, yall

Secrets, Literature, Candlelight and Caves

So yesterday my Politics Class went to the State Parliament. We watched elected, well-payed representatives of the people insult and yell at each other like ill-educated preschoolers and then we had a long dicussion with the president of parliament, where we kinda attacked him... a lot. But we were way more polite and content-oriented than the members of parliament, so.
The whole point of the story is something completetly different though. On the trainride, we randomly came to talk about the Dead Poets Society and I was like: Hey, why dont we start something like that? Especially seeing we're a boarding school and all
And then the girl across from me said: Well, i'm part of a club that is kinda like that. But it's sort of a secret... I can take you the next time.
Can you imagine how excited I got? So apparently they meet at night in a cave in the woods where they read poems and literature or stuff they wrote themselves. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! It's just like the Dead Poets Society!!
I was totally filled up with bounciness due to this when we got back to campus. But that's when it got even crazier.
There was a note on my door with my name written on it and a very beautiful poem from the point of view of a girl that died somehow. On the back there was written "What happened to me? Come to the the blackboard (there's this huge blackboard in one of the hallways) at 7:30pm"
All of this was in English. Which made me guess that it was coming from the American Literature Club for which I gad signed up, but seriously? Which school club club would do something that awesome?! So I went to the blackboard and it turns out I had been right. The club is just really that awesome. Everyone got different poems, which by the way come from the "Spoonriver Anthology" one of my favorite poetry collections, and together they were a puzzle that told a story. The people are interesting. Everything is discussed in English. The projects we will work on are things like an E.A. Poe themed Halloween party, and last but not
least: Our next meetings are gonna be held in the attic of an unused wing, the "duke-house". !!!!!
So I'm in two really awesome-seeming literature clubs now. I have dreamed my ENTIRE LIFE
of having a literature club! Even before I was able to read!
AAHHH! This is making me so excited, that i had to ramble on about it in a huge post!!!

Gotta go and read now... Bye!!!!

So...

I haven't been posting on here anything to exciting other then pictures. To tell the truth that is because I have little to say right now. Nothing has been happening other then Lauren and I hanging out. I post mostly on my personal blog thats were you can read most of whats going on in my head. I love when I get comments on there to tell the truth. I will try and post on here more but for now you can pretty much find me there.

Scabbers' story part II

Just letting you know: The mouse has been caught and set free into the garden. And my room has been nearly destroyed in the process. But oh well. I have to give lots of credit to foxi, who assisted awesomly, without even touching scrabbers. And he looked adorable while doing it, too.
