overated.

the last first

Mon, 13 Aug 2007 21:20:52 GMT

Senior year has begun. I'm actually pretty optimistic about everything. Today was overall a pretty good day. I'm happy with my schedule (for the most part), and the people in my classes. Highlights for the day include...

Orchestra with the boy. Why is it that I always have crushes on guys in my orchestra class? Like I swear every year there's been one. Its great though, cause Stephen like attacked me when he saw we had the same period. I was kind of fearing for my life, but at the same time bursting with elation. Hehe. He invited me to go to the braves game on Thursday. I hope I can!
Legend! Legend is going to be so nifty. I get to be the features Section Editor :) I like most of the people in that class, and I have a feeling its not going to be super hard.
Psychology is going to be the shit. The teacher is hilarious. He's one of those people who doesn't have to try to be funny he just is. I love it.

I'm kind of disappointed with my lunch and the fact that I have no classes with a lot of my really good friends, but I have a feeling its not going to matter. I'll still keep in touch with all them, and hopefully make lots of new friends and learn lots of new things. I am being VERY optimistic about senior year.

i'm a terrible person

Sat, 11 Aug 2007 02:31:20 GMT

So I am a terrible person. Let me explain. This guy, Karl, I used ot date him (when I say used to date him I mean like 2 years ago). We weren't very serious. He was my first REAL boyfriend, and I was pretty much went out with him cause he's WAY hott (see here), and I liked making out/other perks of having a boyfriend. We broke up, because I got kind of annoyed with him and he lied to me a lot. Not cool. Anyways, he has this great habit of getting back together with exes or atleast continuing to be obsessed with them, and I'm not an exception with that trait. He's recently started texting and calling me again, and I'm too nice to ignore him and tell him I'm not interested. I mean, I kind of like the attention, and I could always use a nice hook up. I feel really bad, especially since I like someone else... a lot more, but until something better comes along, I suppose I'll be nice to Karl. Oh, and he just broke up with a good friend. I forgot to mention that. I am going to rot in hell.

Moving on. Where has the time gone? School starts in like 2 days. I am soo not happy. I mean, senior year will be super awesome, I'm just not ready for the whole work load. Here's my lovely schedule.

AP Lit - This one is with the crazy Tracy Anderson. I mean she's a really cool lady, just a bit stuck up and assigns weird ass projects. Exciting news though, its first period, and SHE'S GONNA HAVE A COFFEE MAKER IN HER CLASSROOM! YES! Too bad I'm going to have to write 80 million essays.
AP Econ - This class is kind of a joke. The teacher is a Vietnam War Vet. who tells bad jokes, and doesn't actually teach. Woo.
AP Psych - Too bad I can't spell that word. I'm really excited for this class. The teacher is a really interesting dude, and its a fun subject.
Orchestra - I fully expect my teacher to let me never play, and just goof off. I mean I am a senior.
Legend - (aka our school's newspaper) This will be my first year on the staff, and it should be fun. We get to go off campus for lunch once a week, and the work load isn't that bad.
Intro to Tech - We had to have a tech class to graduate. End of story.
AP AB Calc - I'm not badass enough for BC, but I'm still pumped. The teacher loved my older brother. SWEETNESS.

So this year should be... fun? I dunno. You tell me.

My last couple weeks of summer have been relaxing. Right now I'm in Martinsville visiting family on a really really slow computer. Its g. Though.

bad vs. good

Wed, 01 Aug 2007 04:48:18 GMT

What a good day. I don't really know where to start. It was just I dunno satisfying. Maybe it's because yesterday was pretty crappy, and so pretty much anything following it would be good. I'll explain.

Yesterday was not good because....

I found out I am not going to the Ben Folds/John Mayer/James Morrison concert. I was only pissed because it was my idea to go in the first place and my friends pretty much ditched me. I was kind of overreacting, but I pretty much sulked about it the whole day.
I got a freaking flat tire! It was awful. I was driving my mom to her friends house because her car is in the shop (getting new tires actually), and BAM my car started acting weird. I pulled over and what'd ya know. I had a flat. It took like 2 hours to fix, half my school drove past me, and I got eaten alive by bugs.
I ended staying home all day. Not fun.
I did however go on a run, and whilst I felt like crap the whole time it was nice knowing I can still do it if I want. I actually almost passed out in the shower. Eeeek.

Today was good because...

Mandolin lesson! I learned how to play a Haley Dykes song. Her voice is amazing, and ahh I just love her. It was kind of embarrassing though cause I suck at mandolin. Whatever.
Jason Mraz! I finally got a version of his song I'm Yours, and I can't stop listening to it. It's wonderful.
Braves game! I went with my church group and ran into about a million kids I haven't seen all summer, including a kind of forgotten crush. Yay.
I started reading Princess Diaries again. I forgot how much I loved that book. TOo bad I still have oodles of summer reading to do. Hah.

There you have it.

new layout

Thu, 26 Jul 2007 23:07:28 GMT

I LOVE KAT!

Notice a new layout? I was so bored/felt like graphic making today. I was having trouble coding, but Katalina came to the rescue and saved my butt. Goodness I do love her. I hope the color scheme is ok. I was having trouble making it not too blue.

Anyhoo, not a whole lot has happened since I last posted. I finished Harry Potter (and cried my eyes out). I loved the book, but I kind of wish it had ended differently. It was almost too sappy for me. Not complaining though. J.K. Rowling always writes everything so well.

Yesterday I saw HAIRSPRAY! Oh my goodness Zac Efron is HOT! I spent the whole moving drooling over him. I mean, the movie was so cute, but like Zac Efron made it delicious. I wish the boys I know were that attractive and good at singing. Mmm, life is not fair.

I really don't have a lot to say, just wanted to show off the new layout, and THANK KAT!!!!
Toodles.

don't dream it's over

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 19:28:19 GMT

I can't believe summer is almost over. Less than three weeks and I will be thrown back into the crazy school life. I also cannot believe I am going to be a senior. I get goose bumps whenever I think about it. I don't really know if I'm ready to move on with my life. As much as I let on that I hate high school there are some good parts that I don't want to leave behind -- good people, good memories, etc. Watching some of my close senior friends graduate was quite emotional, and I just can't myself in their position. Whatever, it will come.

The past few weeks have been pretty much amazing. I went to Lake Lure with my family (and a good friend). I love going up to the mountains, and just getting away from everyday life and stupid problems. We got a chance to go tubing (SO MUCH FUN), paddle boat, tan, read, and watch lots of mythbusters and cash cab.

As soon as I got home, I was whisked away to Montreat. This year's conference was especially meaningful for me. I had a great small group, the preacher was nothing less than amazing, and I couldn't ask for a better youth group. There were many tears shed when the week was over.

<3 <3 <3 <3

I made some new icons (finally) with a trial version of photoshop elements. Hopefully I can get the real thing asap. I forgot how fun graphics are. Yay.
I need to go do something slightly productive. Toodles.

leaving.

Sat, 07 Jul 2007 04:47:20 GMT

Goodness, I am excited. Tomorrow I leave for LAKE LURE! It's going to be great. Its with my family, but since my only girl cousin couldn't come, I got to invite a friend. I have a feeling its going to be a really chill trip, and just overall lovely.

Other good news, I got the coolest new phone. It's black and flippy and lovely, and ahh its the coolest thing since sliced bread.

I'm not really in a super writing mood, but I figured I'd post before I left. See ya in about a week!

meh

First order of business
(stolen from kat)

Comment and I shall:
1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a colour, a photo, etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Associate you with a character/pairing.
6. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
8. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

Wow has summer been interesting. I just got home from a pretty amazing mission trip to Bluefield West Virginia. I spent a very structured week cleaning out an old high school, painting, visiting with old folks, and meeting some pretty cool new people. I didn't really expect to get as much out of the experience as I did, but I was really sad to leave. The night before our church group had our final devotional, and there was not a dry eye in the group. It was pretty amazing.

I think I have finally gotten over my guy. He has a new uhh icky girlfriend, but I've realized I'm not angry because its not me. I'm more mad because I just don't like the girl. I care about him as a friend, and it pains me to see him with such a disgusting person. She's manipulative, and just all around not so great on the inside. Hopefully, he'll realize this, but I can't do anything about it. We'll just stay good friends like I knew we'd always be. Whatever.

I need to go practice my mandolin and cello. Laters.

oh, it is love.

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 02:54:18 GMT

I am obsessed with last.fm Actually obsessed. I've been on it the whole afternoon. I was too tired to really go out, so I've just been sitting on it, adding tracks, trying to get friends, and neighbors. Add me if you're a member and join if you aren't. It's oddly addicting.

Tour was tour. Parts of it were breathtaking, other parts made me want to die. I think I'm in love with a rising 11th grader. He has quite possibly the most beautiful voice, he's adorable, and he's super nice. Like seriously, how often do boys like that come along. Unfortunately he goes to a different school, and he's a year younger than me. Whatever, I can still hope. :D But here are some pictures to look at. The sunsets in Key West were breath taking.

1 2 3

I love summer.
The End.

Free at last :)

Fri, 01 Jun 2007 21:54:20 GMT

I. Love. Hannah. Montana. I hate to admit it but I really do. She's pretty much my idol. I just got my friend to get her little sister to burn me her CD. Its pretty much the best thing ever. Well maybe not the best thing, but it's still pretty dern amazing. It makes me happy, and it makes me think of summer, which by the way HAS ARRIVED! Oh goodness me its been great. Actually, the fact that it is summer hasn't sunk in completely, but the whole no school deal, and being able to go down to the pool and sunbathe for hours is quite wonderful. My skin is no darker, despite the fact I have been to the pool quite a bit, but I'm not complaining.

Tour rehearsals have started. I think I'm going to to kill all the little ones before we even leave next week. THEY CAN BE SO ANNOYING! Urgh. But tour should be fun. Hopefully Thomas will come hear us sing, and then confess his undying love for me. Muah. A girl can always dream ;D

I think I'll go practice mandolin/cello (not sure which one). Toodles.

young and with no clue

Sun, 29 Apr 2007 03:14:42 GMT

Goodness I love food. This weekend I participated in the 30 hour famine. Holy crapola not eating for 30 hours is not fun. At first it was okay, but the last few hours were painful, and THEN I stuffed myself at my first meal and was uncomfortable for like the next four hours. Big fun, I know. But, yeah, I could never ever ever be anorexic. Like I was so tired and weak the whole day. Not as bad as giving blood. PLUS, food is so fun. I mean it made me realize I eat a lot for pleasure throughout the day (thank god for exercise, otherwise I'd be so fat right now).

I'm having problems with one friend. She's being a bit, actually take that back -- she's being a huge bitch to two of my very good friends. I would get mad at her, but she was there for me last semester when I had like zero people to hang out with, and she's always been pretty nice to me. I don't really know what do, because like the stuff she saying and the way she acting towards my two pals is not cool. Augh.

I'm so tired. I got like 3 hours of sleep last night. Not cool.

I'm still here

Mon, 23 Apr 2007 21:35:28 GMT

Oh how I love white boys that sound black (aka James Morrison). He's amazing. Go look him up now!

This week has been interesting. I gave blood last Tuesday, and oh boy was that fun. I missed like 3 hours worth of class because:
a.) my blood did not want to be donated. It took 45 minutes to collect a pint from me.
b.) I passed out, so they held me hostage in the blood donating bus. I got to witness about fifty other people give blood and not pass out. It was great.
I finally went back to class, but I was so dead and on the brink of passing out for the remainder of the day. It's going to be awhile before I do that again.

Last night I went, "Gnome Gnapping." It was so silly. Five of us drove around Atlanta with a garden gnome (that we 'kidnapped' hence the gnapping) taking pictures with it. It was soooo silly. We got yelled at a few times, but overall the endeavor was a successful one, especially considering the GUY I was with (no names. I promised myself I wouldn't mention his name. I am not obsessed).

I have dance tonight. Soooo pumped. We're dancing to this fun salsa-y spanish song. It's ahhh-mazing :D

7 WEEKS

Mon, 09 Apr 2007 01:06:29 GMT

I hate school... a lot. Only 7 weeks left. Sweetness, I know.

So Easter was pretty fun. I can finally eat chocolate without feeling tooo guilty (I'm going to try to cut back though. Too much chocolate + Maggie = fat xD). Everyone looked so cute at church (myself included). It was kind of nippy though. I had to wear a long sleeved shirt under my easter dress. Not cool. I still looked adorable. After church, the fam piled into my mom's car and we drove to my uncle and aunt's for a DELICIOUS easter lunch. I didn't feel like I ate a lot, but I was so full, and I pretty much passed out on the couch while everyone else watched the masters. Big fun. Once back home, I dove into my oh-so-fun problem set (not). I still have an essay to write, a cello to practice, and a bike to ride. Hmm, maybe I should get off the computer?

No news on the boy. I mean, whatever. He's still sending me mixed signals out the wazoo. The End.

Should've held my tongue

Fri, 06 Apr 2007 16:06:47 GMT

WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?! [insert teen angst here] Seriously though, whenever I get kind of confident about anything, it all just comes back and slaps me in the face. I'm doubting his affections once again. Maybe it's cause he spent a whole week at the beach with a girl who's known to make EVERYONE like her. Seriously, she always steals the guys I like. Well kind of. It's hard to explain. I'm hoping I'm just being paranoid. I just needed to get that out.

Other news, this break is so boring. I bought a ton of clothes yesterday <3 Woo. I'm so spoiled. No joke. Oh, and I found a bunch of my old cds. Yay.

Spring Break?

Wed, 04 Apr 2007 06:01:57 GMT

I never realized how boring a break from school could be until now. I can count my friends who stayed in town on my hands. It's crazy! I have nothing to do during the day but practice my cello and mandolin and clean. That's right, I HAVE A MANDOLIN! Hah. I got it for my birthday. I'm quite in love with it. It's so beautiful. It's honey colored and named Lucy <333

So the whole boy situation is better than it was... I guess? We hang out just about every weekend, but nothing noteworthy has happened. Every now and then I think we're going to hold hands or kiss or something, but we don't. It's actually rather frustrating. TIME IS RUNNING OUT! But the good news is, he IS going to give me mandolin lessons. Cute, I know?

Things are looking up immensely from earlier this year. School hasn't gotten any easier, but my social life has. A new group of girls has embraced me, and god I'm so thankful for them. They're fun, nice, and SOBER! I love it.

Lover boy gets back in town on Thursday. I'm pumped. Until then I will continue to fill my days with cleaning, AP Chem, and practicing.

School = Stupid

Tue, 09 Jan 2007 02:37:50 GMT

It begins again.I hate it sooo sooo much (school that is). I was so tired the whole day, I came home and took like a two hour nap. I forgot how much I actually hate it. I have like one class I semi look foward to, because of a boy. I know, my life is so fufilling. Hah. I had to bring home like 8 text books today, not because of homework, but because I keep like half my books at home so my locker is less crowded. At the moment, I have like locker buddies in the double digits. The hall that my locker is on is being gutted and getting new AC, so I'm sharing with Despina (<33333) along with Pete, Ilana, Frances, Carolyn, and many others. It's ridiculous.

My church basketball team had it's first game today. It was awesome. We lost 20-24, but it was still fun. The other team was huge, as in the players were massive. I felt so tiny and helpless. I almost scored... key word almost.

So I told this ONE girl who I liked, and she has a big mouth and told like everyone. I don't actually mind, because it's nice having people know who you like, but now I'll be even more disapointed when it doesn't work out. Booo.

Must go shower. I smell.

Going Crazy

Sat, 06 Jan 2007 06:25:44 GMT

I'm going mad, I swear. Story of my life. I mean, I think I over-analyze things and doubt myself too much. This boy is making me crazy. I can't stop thinking about him. Like I really really can't. Right now I'm listening to his cd, I can't stay away from his myspace/facebook for more than a few hours, and he's always running through my mind. If I truely believed in karma, I'd say this was punishment for me being the biggest douche bag/dickwad to him this summer. I really hate myself for doing it, especially now. He's really everything I could ask for. Talented, believes in god, respectful, nice to look at, and he's there. I mean, ERGH! Maybe seeing him in person at school again will help me. I dunno. As you can see, I'm not joking when I say I'm crazy for this guy.

I really want to find my copy of photoshop elements. I was so good with it, and I miss making graphics. It was fun, and satisfying. Plus this layout suck, and I need more picture things. BLeh.

This break has been pretty okay actually. I got a good dosage of all my friends, had a good Christmas, and well yeah. The whole getting sick part was not cool though. Whatev.

Break Halfway Gone

Fri, 29 Dec 2006 23:21:48 GMT

So I'm sad because we only have a week of break left. I suppose thats actually a long time, but it's still sad. I have a week to seduce Thomas I suppose xD Haven't made one of those faces in what feels like a million years.

I hope everyone had as good of a Christmas as I did (or better). I got a new camera (!!), speakers for my ipod (they're really really cool), tons of clothes (I admit I have a problem), and my parents said they'll get my car fixed (funny story, I backed into a mailbox). So overall very good. The break's been pretty nice too. I've hung out with a handful of people, including the boy. We went and got coffee a few days before Christmas. I'm not sure how awesome things went, but there were no awkward pauses, and I got to see him, so that was good.

New Years should be interesting. I've invited some people to hang out (Thomas included). Sheila and I are driving to Alambama or SC tomorrow to get fireworks. Haha, I'm pumped. My mom for once said it was okay. Sheila doesn't think her parents will be okay with it, so she's gonna have to lie. ROAD TRIP :)

Boys Boys Boys

Thu, 21 Dec 2006 01:00:02 GMT

Why do I keep coming back to this topic? I mean seriously, I think I have a problem. I should rename this just boy though, cause there's only one (crazy I know), but I'm in pretty deep. He's so adorable. He plays guitar, and madelin, and violin, and every other instrument on the face of the earth. He's a gentleman, he's a senior (that's actually kind of sad... he'll be leaving next year), and I screwed up big time. We had a thing last year, and I just blew it off, cause I'm a bitch. Well, now I like him again, and I have no clue if it will actually work. NO IDEA! GAH! Good thing he can't read this.

Moving on, school is so close to being over, I can taste it. I got my hardest final over with (AP Chem). I think I'm going to somehow pull off all A's. The AP Chem grade is questionable though. I have an 86, but she curves like a mofo, so I think I can do it. I don't think anyone can fathom how excited I am for this break. I need a break so so so so bad. Plus I love Christmas a lot. Yay.

Someone want to make and code a new layout for me? I'd love you forever!

Things are...?

Thu, 07 Dec 2006 02:31:35 GMT

Anyone who's actually reading this is probably thinking, "What the fuck? Maggie hasn't posted in I don't know, over a century. What the hell is she doing now?" Well folks, I'm pretty much just really ridiculously bored/not wanting to do my homework. Plus I miss having a blog and typing is so much easier than writing in a journal. Duh.

I need to find my copy of Photoshop elements, wipe off all the dust, and make a new layout and some avatars. I forgot how satisfying making graphics was. Plus it'll give me something to do on the those awesome lonely nights when my friends 'forget to call' and go out and party without me.

Junior year is wonderful (I hope you can tell I'm being sarcastic). Boys are stupid, my friends are stupid, and grades are stupid. Everything seems so important/final. Like it actually counts this year, and it's hard. I have to take millions upon millions of tests, I'm involved in more clubs than I can count on one hand, and my work ethic has all but disapeered.

SO yeah, if anyone actually reads this, comment and let me know how you're all doing. I miss all of you!

No school!

Mon, 26 Sep 2005 20:06:50 GMT

Ok, I've given up on perfecting this layout. I'll just put an entry on, EVEN THOUGH the stupid picture isn't aligned properly, and the text is stupid. Whatever.

Anyways, hey guys. Life is pretty sweet right now. I like sophmore year. Cross Country is going amazingly well, even if Coach Barbe is a err douche? (for lack of a better term. xD) He's just retarded. I miss Coach Roberts. He was like, the shit. If I had been good last year, I would have actually gotten to know him (I kind of sucked last year). Coach Barbe is obsessed with people not getting hurt. Gaaaaaaah. But yeah, I'm doing well. I got a medal (9th place baby!) on Saturday, at a hard course too. Go me! Thursday is JV County. I'm excited.

Because of Hurricane Rita, and our governer being a little weirdo, school was cancelled today and tomorrow. Can you say 4 day weekend?! Haha. FUCK YEAH! I was really bummed, because I didn't think I'd get to do anything this weekend between cross country and church, but sticking two extra days onto it really helped with that issue. xD

On Friday Karl came over and we 'watched' Old School. Har har. He's such a cutie, even if he is kind of dumb. *falls over* Like I've said before he's not the most suave guy ever. Atleast he's stopped asking me permision to do stuff. (ex: "Sweetie? Can I make out with you?" or "Is it ok if I touch your boob?" xDDDD He didn't actually do that. Don't worry folks). I didn't do anything Saturday night. I was poooped. Cross Country meets do that to you. Sunday was very church filled, but after youth Justine and Laura came over. OH MY GOD! Those two are the horniest girls like EVER. I expect it from Justine, especially since she hasn't been able to do anything with her boyfriend for a few days (she got in trouble. oooooo), but LAURA?! It was so hilarious. We watched Fever Pitch, which was cute, but too much making out for the two of them to handle. Overall, it was an odd night. We spent like a half hour outside riding around on scooters, making plans for "Scooter Fest 2005", and reminescing about the time Justine, Colin, and I went scootering over the summer (big fun). Talking about Colin made me REALLY miss him. Like REALLY. I mean, this summer we did a lot together, and like now I barely talk to him. It's sad *cries*

Okie, I need to go call Heather. She's boored. Poor her.

One More Day

Thu, 28 Jul 2005 23:34:56 GMT

Damn. I'm full. I think my last entry started out this way too. I sense a pattern /cough.

I mentioned in the previous entry I was planning on going to a Harry Potter BOok party, and a weezer concert. I did BOTH, and had a great time at both. The HP party was hilarious. We just sat in the corner of Borders reading Cosmo and sex books. I'm such a sexpert now. LOL. I didn't get my book at midnight, but around 2:00 the following day. I read for like 5 hours, and then off the WEEZER concert. Holy shit, it was scary. Since it was free, there were like probably close to 20,000 people there, and atleast 3/4's of them were stoned, drunk, or both. We stayed the whole time, but got out of the crowd pretty quickly. I was being squished. I saw a ton of people I knew there, but stuck with Laura and Karl the whole time. Weezer sounded sooo good live. I wish I could have enjoyed it a bit more though :/ Next day I left for MONTREAT.

Montreat was the shit. It's always so... wonderful. I love it. I met some great (and hot) people, and got a lot closer to the ones I already knew. Even without our youth leader, our youth group is so close, and FUN! Some highlights were:

J.R. taught us this really weird game called Silent Football. It's sooo ridiculous. I mean, I can't even begin to explain it. The whole point isn't to laugh, but you're doing so much stuff to make you laugh, soo err ya. Go look at the pictures *points*
Talent Show! Some people from our youth group sang WEEZER! It was awesome. I don't think other churches are as obsessed with Weezer as our youth group, but I know we all enjoyed it.
Running... twice. I'm pathetic. However, both times I did run with Matt (a FAST senior). Hah.
My small group. They were so much fun this year! Everyone was nice and just overall cool. Our leader was a bit on the strange side, but ehhh.
Sleeping with Sydney xD. We spooned. Hahah.

The only stinky thing about Montreat was we weren't allowed to have our cell phones with us. I came home, and I had 3 messages from Karl <3 I missed him. Sadly, he left on Tuesday for a week, and we BARELY did anything between the time I got back, and when he left. I saw him at the pool on Sunday, and we said we'd do something on Monday night, but we didn't :/ I miss him. Atleast I got to see him once.

Driver's Ed is HELL. It's like health for 6 hours. At first, I dispised our instructor, but she's definetly grown on me. Still, the class sucks. We sit, watch movies, talk, and do silly worksheets. I HATE IT. TOday we actually watched 3 videos I had already seen in health. Thank god it's over tomorrow. I swear to god, if I don't pass my test, I'm going to like shoot someone.

Hehe. I'm listening to this really funny song. It's called Yeah In the Sun. It's a mix of Island in the Sun (Weezer) and Yeah (Usher). It's soooo weird. You can download it here.

Off to do driver's ed homework. FUN!

Icecream

Thu, 14 Jul 2005 03:12:10 GMT

Bleh. I went to Bruster's tonight, and I feel SICK. My head hurts, my stomach is all knotty and weird. Stupid yummy icecream.

Anyways, hey guys. I love this journal, because NO ONE READS IT! I can put whatever the fuck I want to, and no one else will know (atleast I think... No one comments atleast). So my life has been pretty good recently. Karl and I FINALLY got back together. Haha. It's really kind of embaressing actually, but whatever. I'm happy (for the most part), so err ya. Hopefully this will last long enough for me to have a good time :) Muahaha.

Even though I'm not in a blogging mood I'll try to recap what's been going on with me since I last posted. So sit back and relax. It's been over a month.

Tour was actually rather fun. I was kind of worried since Sydney wasn't going, and all the ex-seniors were gone, but I really did have a great time. I stayed with ALMOST all the girls in my choir (there were two or three that I missed), got to know some of the 8th grade boys (and girls) better (Matt <3, but not like that), and played a ridiculous amount of spades (Kathryn is MY partner). Holy shit, I was part of some BAD spades games, no joke. There were T.V.'s on the bus, so people easily get distracted during a game. We were playing against these two guys who begged to play with us, and I swear to god, they just kept zoning out. Kathryn and I were really about to throw the cards down and quit, but we waited it out (with much eye rolling, and yelling), and ended up loosing. It was like the Spades Game from fucking Hell x.x It was terrible.

As soon as I got home I plunged back into my social life xDDDDD One of my SUPER good friends had left for a trip right after school was out, and had gotten home a few days after I left, so I hadn't seen her for a few weeks. Anyways, I called her up, and we just hung out at her house, with another friend. It was fun-boring. Better than being home atleast. Anyways, finally got in touch with Karl from there, and he ended up coming over to my house later. We watched School of Rock (<3), and he asked me out again. It was actually really awkward. Whatever.

Fast foward a couple of weeks and it's the 4th of July. So much fun. I went down to my friends' pool, where everyone else was (almost). Karl wanted me to go down to his pool, but he didn't call early enough, and he would have been the only person I really would have wanted to hang out with at his pool. Anyways, it was great. I love my friends <3 That night I went to fireworks at my uncle's golf club. They were really nifty. Since it's on a golf course, you get to sit on the greens, which are REALLY awesome. The grass is like carpet. My uncle's friend's daughter was there, so it was totally boring. My mom got totally drunk though. It was really embaressing.

I missed out on the fireworks at Decatur, where EVERYONE went. Kind of disapointing, but I got over it. I probably saw better fireworks anyways. Haha.

That weekend, my family (extended) went up to Boone, N.C. We stayed in this 'un-charming' cottage up on one of the many mountains up there. It was still fun. The first night we were there, my mom signed my brother, herself, and me up for a 5 mile run up Grandfather Mountain (one of the bigger mountains in the area). Holy shit, it was crazy. The first 3 miles were really nothing. I mean, there were no downhills, but they weren't particuarlly steep, and there were some flat parts. THen you hit mile 4 and MY GOD it was like straight up. I was running sooo slow. It took me an hour and 4 minutes to run 5 miles. It was great. Haha. I also got to run around this lake with my brother. It was fun. I like running <3

We played a TON of Balderdash. I love that game sooo much. I'm not the greatest at it, because:
a.) I suck at coming up with believable answers
b.) I can't keep a straight face while the answers are being read/when I read the answers. I lost it on this one question about a donkey.
Did you know that in North Carolina it is illegal to participate in a dance marathon for more than 8 hours?

Back home, Cross Country practices started. We have a new coach, and man it's weird. Our old coach was SO strict, so serious, and the new guy is really laid back, and sooo different. I can't get over how easy practice has been.

I have SO many things I'm looking foward to in the next few days!
a.) HARRY POTTER! 2 days! I'm going to a book release party. I'm such a nerd.
b.) Weezer concert. They're throwing a free-concert in downtown ATL. I haven't really been to any good concerts before, so I'm REALLY excited. A lot of my friends are going.
c.) Montreat! We leave on Sunday. I can't wait for Texas Hold'em, Frisbee, Running, and meeting new people. It's going to be great.

Ok, so I'm pooped. Off to bed. I ahve to wake up for 8:00 practice.

Home... but not for long :(

Choir tour is in less than a week. Rehersals start tomorrow. Bleh. Sadly, not looking foward to tour so much this year. Atleast it will give me something to do for, oh 10 days x.x Karl's not even going to remember me. Haha. I still have yet to do anything with him. He totally likes me though. Atleast I think. He hasn't called me back, but once, but he:
a.) lives at the pool
b.) is usu. busy (he has a life)
c.) he's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
If I leave a message saying I WANT him to call back, he does. Otherwise he just assumes it wasn't important, I guess *shrugs* I still think he likes me. It's not just ANY boy that walks you to your classes for the last few days of school (I miss it). I'm just worried that if I don't see him before I leave for tour, that'll be the end of it. He'll either stop liking me, or find someone new *cries* I wish his cell phone wasn't broke, otherwise I be calling him on that. Poooooop.

Anyways, onto other stuff. It's summer <3 My first week was like holy crap amazing. My FIRST NIGHT was super. My 'possy' went over to a friend's house (sans Karl -_-') and just hung out. It was great. I played poker and ALMOST WON, god dammnit. I SHOULD have called Karl, but I had a feeling the girl hosting it didn't really like him, because she told me earlier that she didn't think any guys were coming, and I shouldn't invite him, so I didn't. Guess how many boys showed up. Four, and a fifth was invited, but couldn't come because he was sick. Hmmm. The next night, I went to this girl's birthday party. It was weird, because I had like barely any classes with her, and during the year we barely talked. At first, I was like, why am I here? I could have hung out with KARL (I really could have. I talked to him earlier and he was like, "Do you want to do something tonight?" but I already had the dumb party to go to). Anyhoo, the party turned out to be a lot better than I thought. I just hung out with some people I knew and we talked/ran around acting like weirdos. No boys really though, which is actually sometimes a good thing.

Sunday was FUN. The end of the Youth Party was ok (at church), but while I was there I got a group together to go see Star Wars (yes AT THE PARTY). Karl wasn't home, but he DID call me back during the movie (poopy). He left a super cute message. The movie was actually surprisingly good.

Ehh... I did more stuff last week, but I'm too lazy to go into more detail. This week has kind of stunk... I went to visit my grandparents. Big fun. I'm tired. Bye.

Lovesick

I'm in a weird mood. I need somewhere to vent, and well livejournals are MADE for venting xD

I HAD a boyfriend, for like 2 glorious months, and then I did the stupid thing of dumping him just because (I'm a bitch, non?). Well not just because, but I didn't have the greatest reason. We didn't do much of anything, so I guess we shouldn't have gone out in the first place. Right after we called it quits he was super nice to me. He'd always talk to me on aim or at school, and then we just sort of stopped talking. Recently we've started being all buddy-buddy again, and I realize, now, that I've liked him all along, and dumping him was pretty dumb. I've told like 2 friends about my 'problem.' One doesn't really have an opinion, but the other doesn't think I should go back out with him. Her philosophy is more of the "friends with benefits" approach. She says I should try to hang out with him, and uhh get some (xDDDD), but not actually go out with him. It seems like a good plan, but I don't know what he'd think of it. I guess what I really need to do is talk to him. I'm just too shy to call him, and he rarely gets on aim anymore. Poooop.

Okie, done with the venting. That wasn't too bad, non? Anyways, long time no see. Maggie's been taking a bit of a break from the virtual world. I just really needed to let my feelings out. Ahahahha, that sounds corny.

wipes off layer of dust

Hi everyone! I'm finally blogging on this ancient thing. It's been all neglected and lonely, and that's no good, during the holiday season and all. Anyways, long story short, I decided to update you guys on what's going on with me <3 Or well what happened to me today. I'm too lazy to blog about what happened in like the last million years. That'd be long too.

Moving on. Today, or last night rather, I spent the night at a good friend's house. We stayed up super late. Unfortunatley we had to wake up super early, because I was supposed to go set up candles at the church for tomorrow's service. I got there around 10:00 and apparently they had rescheduled the stupid thing to 2:00 and DIDN'T TELL ANYONE! Essentially I woke up early for nothing. I went back home, and sat around until 2:00. Back at church it was freezing and we sat around for awhile because we didn't have enough sand to put in the buckets that we put the candles in. Pooo. About 2 hours later we FINALLY finished, and I swear, my fingers were about to fall off because it was so freaking cold.

I went over to Syd's house (girl at church) afterwards. We drank hot cocoa and watched The Stepford Wives. Very ODD movie. I don't know if I really liked it. Nicole Kidman is really weird looking with short brown hair. I've decided she's too skinny. It's kind of gross *makes the woman eat more fat*

TOMORROW IS CHRISTMAS EVE! WE'RE PLAYING FRISBEE AT THE PARK! YAYA!
