Hmm.... not really sure what to blog about, in all honesty. I know this is supposed to be "once a day blog", but what if there's nothing to blog about on a specific day?! I honestly don't know what I'm supposed to do then. There's no point in writing about something if I don't think that it's worth writing about, right? Right.

Anyway, this is probably going to be a big ramble, as per usual, filled with poor sentence structure, too many commas, run-on sentences, and pathetic paragraph structure. Since, you know, that is apparently my writing style. Whatever.

So.... it is Saturday, the end of another week. I honestly have no idea where this past year has gone. It's already halfway through September! Only another 3.5 months until the first decade of this millennium is over. Jeepers. I've found myself wishing a lot lately that time would slow down, so I would have time to "stop and smell the roses". I feel like my life is moving way too quickly for me, and if you know me you know that I don't like quickly moving things at all. I don't like change. I like being able to cherish memories, especially have time to create them. And while I AM making memories, and I definitely have cherished memories from the past couple of years, I still feel like my life is moving way too quickly and before I know it, I'll be old, gray, and bent over with age and I won't know how I got there. I'm scared of growing old.... I haven't really been thinking about that, but it's definitely been on the back of my mind.

Another thing I've been thinking about has kind of been more in my face. =/ I do enjoy homeschooling-- I like being free to do what I want when I want; I like being able to not have to wear a uniform; I like being able to wake up late, though it's probably not best for me... One thing I don't like is how my mom is so controlling and rigid about my schedule. I understand that I'm in school, and yes, when I was at school I had class for 4.5 hours, but I hate that I HAVE to do 4 hrs/day, and if I miss an afternoon or morning because I have work or if I have a dentist appointment or something, I have to make it up. Like now. Yesterday, my mom had to take her iMac up to the Tech support store or whatever in Iowa City, because it crashed, and I didn't want her to have to go up by herself on her birthday, so I went with her. We had fun, and I got some bread and a new pair of Chucks, which are FANTASTIC and I love them dearly, but I hate that I have to make up the afternoon I lost today. I don't want to be doing schoolwork right now. I KNOW that if I went to school, I would probably be doing homework right now, but that's besides the point. The point is is that I don't feel like I should have to make up the time I missed because I was doing something else. Whatever. I'm just being a difficult teenager, as per usual.

So.... I'm trying to think of other stuff that is worth mentioning. My new Chucks are fantastic. They're black with rainbow stars on the black part, gray with green numbers, and pink with red-ish pink flowers. :) My latest dailybooth picture shows them off better than I could ever describe them as. ^_^ I also switched over to Gmail from Hotmail last night, and I'm super happy about it. Gmail is more organized than Hotmail, and I really like the labels feature, seeing as how at least half of my inbox is from social networking sites. The labels make it a TON easier to see where all my emails are from. :) As this picture shows, my inbox is very colorful. And yes, before you ask, that IS an email from December 20th, 2008, saying that Alex Carpenter confirmed me as a friend on facebook, and yes, I have not opened it yet, and yes I'm not planning on deleting it any time soon. I'm a fangirl. Sue me. :P

I think in another blog post, maybe one later today, I'll give out all my stalker information (aka facebook, twitter, youtube, dailybooth etc.)
Okay, I think that's all for now. Whew. This was a long post. sorry! :)

Keep each other safe, keep faith.
