The sun is out, today is glorious...

So why does it smell like warm milk and cheerios? Seriously, I smell this faint cereal in warm milk smell. A bit weird, yes, but absolutely true.

Before I move on, I just wanted to send a shout out to KATIE LARSON because it's her 16th birthday today! Happy birthday Katie, and enjoy this fabulous day!

I can't believe July is almost over. I need to start amping up my summer homework. I've done one book/essay, and am currently reading my second book. Then there's still math... ah well. Plenty of time, right?

Guess what? I got this awesome book from Barnes and Noble the other weekend. It's called "Wreck this Journal". It looks like a journal, but the point is to follow directions on each page to creatively "wreck" the journal. Examples: one page says to poke holes in it with a pencil. Another says to throw stuff at the journal (paint, pencils, etc.). And yet another says to take a shower with the journal. I'm saving that page for last. It's quite fun. I'm doing a little each day for some creative outlet time.

Did you guys get a peek at your schedules for next year? I know I did, and noticed some strange errors, like an hour long lunch on Mondays. That's probably why they took it down. And because they don't want us to know before school starts. You know, I really hope we have clubs next year. I wanted to start a martial arts club maybe, or a technology club. There were some rumors of a computer science club, which I would join in a heartbeat. What do you all think about clubs for next year? Should they happen, or not? Leave a comment.
I've also been thinking a lot about HL art lately. I'm super excited! I have so many plans and ambitions for that class.

Mk, time for the Photoshop picture of the week. This was taken while I was in Hawaii, on the Big Island. This beach is called A-Bay. The seperation you see in the middle of the bay actually wasn't there before - the tsunami from Japan did that. But it's still a nice beach. I did a few things here, desaturating the color a bit and adding an edgy overlay effect, along with amping the colors a bit on the kayaks there on the right. Enjoy!



Have a great weekend!

Remember Me?

Gosh. I totally forgot about this...haha. My mind has been all over the place lately.

Sooooooo what's new???

Well, it's summer. It's been so nice to just hang out and relax. The Philippines Trip was amazing- I'm still trying to recover from how emotional and physical draining it turned out to be.

I've been pretty busy ever since I got back. I've been taking an SAT course (not that exciting), playing tennis, and DRIVERS ED. fun fun fun! WATCH OUT FOR ME ON THE ROAD :D The class is sooo boring, but the police officer people are so funny :) And I'm making friends!!!! So yay for me!

Speaking of friends, I MISS YOU ALL. I haven't seen like anybody in a month. But I'm gonna see more people in August...hopefully. I don't know if I can make it to the class party, but whoever's going, I hope you have TONS of fun!

ohhhhh. guess what I'm excited for? GLEE 3D CONCERT :D yesssss!!!!!!! 13 Days left!!!! that's going to be lots of fun :)

I actually can't wait for Junior Year. It's going to great :) I....it's our 11th year. (haha Kylie) We're upperclasswomen now...that's so odd to me. I remember 5th grade like it was yesterday.

Have we changed much? Nope. not really. (well at least I haven't)

wishing you all a fantabulous summer :)

-Catherine <------ whoa. used my real name for once.

LSD

When I say LSD what do you think of? Probably the Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or else some druggies. Well. Now you have something new to think of, because apparently Cailyn and I are "just like LSD". Well that's a pleasant thought. Anyway. We were in the San Juans. It was pretty. And funny. So I guess that makes it pretty funny. List of pretty funny things:
-bothering david
-pretzels & peanut butter and trying to talk
-frozen watermelon
-onefers and twofers and threefers
-being hungry (they were meaaaan to me!)
-ice cream
-tube worms that are not afraid (song cue) and that are also on buoys
-the deadliest catch
-tying our shoes together

So yes. It was lots of fun.
I DID NOT GET MY SCHEDULE. Because they were down when I checked :(
Anyway,
Ciao,
Ellen :)

I hate titles

I had such a wonderful day yesterday. I love my friends. They kidnapped me at the mall and gave me a build a bear and then we went to the park and parked around for a while and ate and went back to my house and slept outside! My gosh! The stars were really pretty.

I want to go camping so I can see the stars. They are BEAUTIFUL.

I just tried to google a picture but nothing was as good as the real thing

Classic.

I am so tired, you have no idea. I am sore but I have NO idea why!!

Can you describe the taste of bubble gum? Like, is it possible!?

I CAN'T DO IT.

I am trying to draw a dragon, but I messed up. So now the colors are weird.

Bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

My posts never make sense. Other people should post also I do believe.

Song of the Week ---> Do the Hippogriff by the WEIRD SISTERS

THIS IS FROM HARRY POTTER. I THINK YES.

Katie ---> out. MWAH.
