There's a "How To" page for that!

Hey there. How've you guys been? So tonight I went to the basketball game and unfortunately, we lost. No one really could get in a rhythm and get enough points. Luke only had 7 points which is basically unheard of. But just because we weren't doing well doesn't mean me, Marissa and Luisa couldn't find a way to laugh and have fun. There was an EXTREMELY obese ref and we found instant joy whenever he tried to run down the court with every part of his body flapping around. He also had a balding strip that made him look like a skunk. There was also a male cheerleader on the other team's squad. But you could not tell that there was a man down there cheering. It was the first time I've ever seen a male cheerleader at a high school in my life. The best part was that he kept losing grip on the girl he was lifting. One time they even dropped her and it looked quite painful. Both of these elements put together almost took away from the fact that there was a basketball game going on and that Luke was playing. The best part of the night though was at the end when me and Luisa were just talking about random things. I told her about my plan to build a massive blanket fort in the basement from my birthday party next and that I read a How To on wikiHow on how to build the best one. We laughed about that for a while until I remembered that I had read a How To on how to move out of the ghetto. We both just started busting up laughing about all the steps that it stated. Like making sure you were comfortable leaving your friends behind and that you've saved up enough money to leave. The best one, however, was having confidence in yourself and your decision. And then the conversation spun into this theory about how in the ghettos there must be like support groups for all the people who want to leave and they follow this How To guide like AA follows the 12 Steps. At each meeting they would discuss the next step on the guide and at the end they would all get on a bus that they rented with the money they saved up as a group and drive out of the ghetto to their new homes in nicer parts of the city. While on the topic of How-To pages, I also came across one on how to throw the best Twilight themed slumber party, one on how to make a princess crown, how to deal with a boyfriend who is over obsessed with your butt, how to find a stuffed animal companion, how to inspire people, and how to know if your name is nice. I suppose there is a How-To page for everything.
~Today I got A Great and Terrible Beauty from the library at school. All of my friends have read it and really liked it so I'm hoping that it is good. I finally finished Scarlett. It was ok. I don't know how it compares to Gone With The Wind because I haven't read it but I did finally see the movie all the way through. Well it's getting late and I have a lot of things to do tomorrow. Write Soon!

Golden Globe's Recap!!

Hola!! How've you guys been? I had a pretty rad weekend if I shall say myself. Sunday was the Golden Globe's and then yesterday was MLK day so we didnt have school. I didnt do anything with my Monday so not much to tell until later when its TV recap time.
~The Golden Globe's were fantastic and as glamorous as ever. I loved loved loved Lea Michele's dress. It was a black Oscar de la Renta ballgown whith a sweetheart neckline and a little glitter on top. But the bottom was what really made it a wow dress. It was like feathery but not tacky feathers. She looked gorgeous! Though Glee didn't win any of the acting awards, the did win best TV series Comedy or Musical. Personally I think that that award was the most important for the show because of what other shows were in that category. Avatar took Best Picture Drama and the Hangover took Best Picture Comedy or Musical. There weren't any extremely terrible gowns or outfits but some that I didnt love that much. I did miss the Fashion Police that was on yesterday because I was watching Secret Life but I'm sure I didnt miss much.
~On to televivision from last night. One Tree Hill is finally off hiatus! this episode talked about the last 6 weeks that happened in Tree Hill. Haley went on tour, Julian and Brookoe haven't spoken to each other, Millie is in shambles. But most of the issues were resolved and some new ones were added. Like Taylor, Haley's other sister came to town with her new BF in tow...David, Quinn's now official ex-husband. I have a feeling this can only bring bad things to the show in terms of character relationships. Mouth came back for Millie and she is getting her life back on track which is good. Brooke and Julian are still on the rocks but I'm ok with that. They haven't really stood out to me as the next super couple of TV.
~Secret Life was basically a waste of my time as usual, but the CW's new show Life Unexpected however is not. It's really cute and I sense good things coming from it. Well that's all I really have. Write soon!

Hey ya'll! How ya'll been doing!?!

~Well hello there! I really need to keep a consistency with these postings! Anyway, I hope you all had a great ten days since my last post. Mine were pretty okay. These last couple days we've had exams at school. I feel pretty confident that I did good on all of them except maybe my Spanish II one... It was kinda hard and I was like freaking out the whole time because everyone had said it was their hardest test. I do know that I go a 94% on my Bio test while the rest of my class got like 50's. Thursday I had to work at the girl's basketball game concessions and that was a lot of fun. The girls won by like 30 or something and inside the concessions stand was like pure comedic fun the whole night. For some reason I kept breaking out into a southern accent at random points during the night and eventually A.R. was like "Now Liz, if you're gonna talk in a southern accent you gotta do it right." He had the most believable accent and we all just busted up laughing. And then I got to talk all about my L.B. obsession with my new BFF M.H. I always new he was a cool person but I never realized how completely awesome he was until Thursday night. We have so much in common it's crazy. We were also supposed to play at the game but that didn't happen because Mr. Young so casually forgot about it. So like half the band members showed up and there was not Mr. Young. So since Marissa was there I talked to her. We talked about J.H., who also showed up. We talked about how he always has a different girlfriend and they are all really creepy girls. Also that he becomes so desperately in love with them and then when they break up, he's heartbroken for like a week and then has a new girl that he is desperately in love with. Needless to say this man will never have any sort of stable relationship. So I said that maybe he is just a natural born polygamist. The thought of polygamy naturally brings to mind people I know who are of the Mormon faith, who also happen to be people I don't like very much at all. So I put all these things together into a wonderful story that goes as such: J.H. will probably marry A.C. (mormon) and she sill be his "real marriage". Then all the other creeper girls that like to be with him for some odd reason or another will be his "spiritual unions". But because even God can't love J.H., all of his "spiritual unions" will be barren and never be able to pass along the fruit of his loins to further generations. As for A.C., Her uterus will be such a hostile environment that nothing could ever grow inside her. Thus the whole point of polygamy will be useless and he will still spend the rest of his life alone. I find this to be quite hilarious. if you don't there is something wrong with you.
~Yesterday was the Costa Rica spaghetti dinner and there were way more people there than I thought would show up. I had to put meat sauce on everyone's noodles but ended up getting more of it on my shirt than on the plates. So when that was finally over, I went in to watch the game. Luke did fantastic as usual and we won by like 10. After the game was the rave but I didn't stay because I wanted to go home and watch The Soup. Best. Entertainment. Show. Ever. I love Joel McHale. He makes my life. I ended up falling asleep before I could watch more than 10 minutes of 'Knowing', that new Nicholas Cage movie. I did watch it today though and I thought it was super creepy in the beginning. Though I didn't do anything else today except watch TV. I was extremely disappointed in the Critic's Choice Award's. They were boring to watch and Sarah Silverman gave one of the most awkward presentations possible. All she did was scream about how much she loved penis to Adam Lambert. Very strange. Thankfully, real award's show season starts tomorrow with the Golden Globe's. I'm hoping that Glee will win all the categories it was nominated in and that there are some important people wearing terrible outfits that I can talk about on Monday with Luisa.
~Secret Life hasn't been much to talk about but American Idol has. Sort of. Auditions started last week and they have turned out to be funny as ever. Though we won't have Paula this year, we will have Ellen. But as soon as this season is done so is Simon. I'm not quite sure what American Idol will be like without him. I'm not sure I want to know. Well my brother wants to go to sleep so I suppose I have to get off here now. Write Soon!

Back To School

~Why hello there! It has been quite a while since my last blog. I hope that all you had a happy new year. I know I did. I stayed up to watch the ball drop and then went to bed right after. I did see JLo's performance and I'm questioning her stylists thought processes. That fur overcoat thing and her sparkly bodysuit were just a bad choice... The new year brought us a new season of Secret Life. It wasn't fantastic but it wasn't the terrible excuse for a show that they gave us last season. I am looking forward to all the plot lines that the first episode set in motion. Overall it should turn out to be a very good season. Even though the Bengals lost their game to the Jets they are still in the playoffs. We would be going but because of the weather and the fact that it is sucha long drive we aren't going to. Hopefully they get a win and advance to the next round and after that make it really far. It's nice to see them in this situation as a fan. There was a basketball game last night and we won! It was super exciting and it was nice to be able to see L.B. play and fangirl over him. The best part of the night was when he dunked it. Everybody in the crowd was screaming and clapping. My throat was half raw by the end of the night. He scored close to half our teams total points and only had three fouls. Overall it was a very good game for him and to watch.
~For my Costa Rica trip that I'm going on in the summer we are having a spaghetti dinner fundraiser but the kicker is that it costs $10 to go and if we don't sell our ten tickets we have to pay the $100 that we didn't make. All the money we make is supposed to be split among all the kids who are going which I think is really dumb. If you didn't sell any tickets you shouldn't make any money. I haven't sold any of mine and i don't plan on paying the $100 when I don't sell them all. I really think that this fundraiser should've been optional and that the kids who sold the tickets should get their money. This whole trip and the fundraising is turning into this crazy mess.
~So in Bio we are talking about meiosis. I understand the topic completely. The other 90% of my class does not however. So today Mr. Oldaker gave us this big long thing about how he doesn't get why we don't get it. But it is clear to him that we don't spend any time with our notes and that we don't study period. I think he is completely right. I don't study because I don't need to. There are only about three other kids in my class who could get away with not studying that much. The rest of them are mostly dumb as posts who don't give a shit about this class or school in general. They more than likely won't go to college because they'll be too busy getting high, drunk or pregnant. I'm sorry that I have standards and care about what happens in my future. I'm sorry that I don't want to live off government assist and have a husband with no job and three kids running around acting like a bunch of heathens. I am not trying to say that I am in some way better than the people who do live like this. But I am saying that it is the reality that about half my Bio class is going to face.
~In the past couple days I have decided that my obsession with T.B. is going to take a backseat in my life because he is acting like a huge jerk. Maybe I only feel a need to know his life story when he is dating someone and not just hanging out with his friends and treating people like crap. Though I'm thinking that it's just a front he puts up in order to feel accepted. I don't know but for now it is full steam ahead on the RMS Hott haha. Leave comments, write soon!
