Hey everyone, long time no see! Sorry I haven't updated the site in a while, but I've been busy. ⟨/3 But, I'm back! So basically, the 411 on my life since my last post is as follows:

My class had to plan a film festival (we're only showing one film, so does it really count?) for some sort of school activity. Naturally, my group came up with a cool name and logo, which were promptly rejected by another group. Oh well.
I've done quite a bit of writing on a new WIP that is quite possibly my best yet! The only problem is that I'm still about 1500-2000 words from finishing my prior WIP, but I'm already so into my new one that it's kind of hard to get into the "spirit" of my old characters.
I've discovered the wondrous activity that is sitting on the couch and eating neapolitan ice cream out of a mug. Now you can just drink the melted ice cream instead of having to scrape it up with a spoon!
I have a dentist's appointment at 11:00, which is in less than an hour. Hoo boy. At least it'll be over with by lunchtime. I wonder if they'll let me listen to my iPod during my appointment?

Anyways, I need to go sync my iPod, so ttyl!

I have been so tired this week, so sorry for not updating this site very much! Anyways, I had a substitute for physics today, and my physics teacher sent an email out about 20 minutes before class (which began with "hey y'all", might I add) saying that he would be absent and so my philosophy teacher (who often serves as a short-notice sub) subbed for physics, as well as my French class. My French teacher dropped in for about two minutes in the middle of class, and then promptly leaved. Anyways, I've been doing some writing and not much else other than school and watching YouTube, so I don't have much else to update you on. :( But anyways, talk to you later!

I swear, the last two weeks before spring break just drag on and on! I can't wait to finally get a break from school and rest. If only I could spend the whole first day of spring break sleeping!

Anyways, today in Latin class, we did bingo. Personally, I won some laffy taffy and Hershey's kisses (lava cake - yum!), as well as two small spikey balls, one orange and one grey, which I named after the main characters from the story I'm currently writing. Also, today and yesterday, I've been watching quite a bit of Sarah Millican, who is an English comedian if you don't know. Anyway, her stuff is super funny! Also, it's been raining a ton over the past few days, which has been amazing! Sadly, it's supposed to become sunny again on Friday, so I'll have to enjoy the rain while it lasts.

Also, the Grammys were the other day. (I think, the days have all been blending together for the past year!) I honestly wish BTS would've won the award they were nominated for, though Rain On Me is a good song of course. My biggest issue, however, with the Grammys is that somehow Justin Timberlake has been nominated for 39 Grammys and won 10, while Britney has been nominated for ten and has only won one. Being the huge Britney fan that I am, I'm quite aggravated at this, especially considering that Britney is the Princess of Pop, while Justin Timberlake's first big hit (that I'm aware of), Cry Me A River, was literally airing his dirty laundry with Britney in a hurtful way in the public when (according to Britney's sister Jamie Lynn) "he cheated first".

This week on [I meant Lizzie] rants about random things: Daylight savings time! So I forgot to set my clock back last night, and I (of course) got woken up at 7 AM by squirrels in the attic, except I went back to sleep because I thought it was 6. So then my phone's alarm, which is normally set for 7:30, went off at "6:30", I went back to sleep until "7:30", when my alarm clock alarm went off. At least I got an extra hour of sleep, but either way this morning was just a mess.

I also have some physics homework, and we use an app as our textbook. So right now I'm trying to download the textbook on my computer, except for whatever reason, the stupid thing isn't doing anything vaguely related to downloading. Also, thankfully, it's been pretty rainy these past few days, making me one very happy femboy, but now I want a boyfriend to sit and enjoy the rain with. :( Oh well, at least I have the song That's The Way It Is by Celine Dion to cheer me up!

So I had today off for parent teacher conferences! It went pretty well (except physics, my teacher complained about me not being "engaged" enough), and afterwards, I watched some Gilmore Girls and ate some neapolitan ice cream out of a mug. Honestly, eating ice cream out of a mug is so much better that eating it out of a bowl in my opinion, because you can drink the melted ice cream way easier after you've eaten all the rest!

Of course, I also did some writing on some projects that I've been working on and I've been considering starting some sort of literary journal or something where students from my city can publish short stories. I should see if one exists, though, since I only really know about stuff going on in my school, which is pretty small, and there are two massive high schools in my area.

I finally did (part of) my reading for school yesterday! I also watched some Clarissa Explains It All and Golden Girls! I didn't do as much writing yesterday, though, because I kinda felt a bit under the weather today. :( (Don't worry, I'm feeling better now and I checked my temperature and I don't have a fever!)

Alas, once again I spent the entirety of yesterday procrastinating and not doing school work. Such is life! So I've really just been sitting around all weekend because who does anything on a three-day weekend? But my new phone case finally arrived yesterday, so I don't have to worry about shattering my screen! Even though I've been thinking of buying a new phone, but oh well.

Also, I've been watching quite a bit of Vi Hart and it's actually really interesting content! If only algebra class was this entertaining. -_- Sadly, the most entertaining thing I've done recently in algebra class is write in my notebook :/

Finally, a day off! I have some reading stuff to do for my philosophy class, but other than that, my day seems to be wide open, so I'm probably going to work on this site quite a bit at some point!

Blogger's note: I forgot to publish this until over twelve hours after I had meant to. Oops!

I've had a back-to-back exam and presentation this morning so far, so having those over with is a big weight off my shoulders! Plus, I don't have school tomorrow, so I get to lay back with a huge weight taken off of my shoulders. For some reason, I've just had an unusually large amount of work the past couple of weeks or so, and it's great to finally not have so much to do!

Current Mood: relaxed

So in my physics class, we just went outside for some sort of lab/experiment thing where we threw eggs at whiteboards and sheets, and at the end he let us all throw an egg at the whiteboard to get out our frustration. Me being me, I naturally missed both times and threw it into the land/yard/whatever it is next to my school, so I didn't get to have as much satisfaction of throwing an egg at a whiteboard. But either way it was fun!

I do not want to go back to school. Thankfully spring break is only a couple weeks away! But yeah, I'm really tired of school at this point. Also, I want to bake some French bread and some oven-roasted potato wedges, both of those are so delicious!

So I had a physics test today (ugh), but thankfully, most of us got confused on one question so the teacher said we don't have to do it! :)

Also, I'm working on a music page and an album review!

i want boyfriend

BUT anyways I have to finish up my essay but I'm too bored ugh. Also my history class today talked about job automation/AI and that kind of stuff and I kind of want to make an article talking about it but I have a bit too much to procrastinate on right now, so I might do that tomorrow or some time else!

I have a late start day! So, with all luck, my essay due date will be pushed back to Monday!

I have a snow day! The final draft of my essay is due tomorrow, so I'm going to work on that, plus I have a philosophy project that I have to finish, but other than that, I don't have anything that I really need to do today!

Today's my last day off school :(

Also, for some reason I woke up at 6:30 AM and remembered that I forgot to cite my sources on my essay. Shite. But at this point, there's not really anything that I can do about that until I do my final draft. (Actually, never mind -- I snuck it in and I don't think that my teacher reviewed it yet.)

In other news, I want to read the Divine Comedy by Dante, but the only translation I found that I can download for free is utterly confusing and hard to read. I also read Plato's Republic recently for school, and that also suffered from the same issue. It's translated into modern English, yet somehow (my bet is the tone that it's written in), it's just hard to read and grasp like I would read and grasp a normal novel. Maybe the poetic nature also has something to do with it as both were written in stanzas and rhymes? I think that may be the problem with Dante but Plato definitely needed a tone adjustment as well.

Anyway, for understanding a lot of classic (and modern classic) novels, I discovered a cool YouTube channel a while ago called Overly Sarcastic Productions. It's run by these two people, and one covers a lot of novels and literary tropes, and the other talks about history! They're super helpful and super cool!

Anyways, I think that's enough rambling for now, so I'll talk to you later!

Finally a Monday without school! This is definitely a well-needed holiday, I don't know if I could stand all the schoolwork that much longer. I also get tomorrow off, so I finally have a 4-day weekend. Also, i heard a rumour that the new director of my school is supposedly 'against snow days', which is apparently why I haven't been getting any snow days even though it's been snowing like there's no tomorrow. At least that kind of explains that, but I still don't understand how someone can be 'against' snow days. Snow days are literally some of the best things ever.

Finally, a four day weekend! I've been needing a break for a while, plus the lack of a snow day really exacerbated it. Anyways, four day weekend!

why does school have to have so much work ugh

2022 Lizzie says: Good heavens, I did not know what was coming.
2025 Lizzie says: *maniacal cackling at my poor innocent self*

Last night it also snowed quite a bit, and the public schools around me all closed, yet for some unknown idiotic reason, my school is still open. PLUS I have an algebra test today and I still have a cold. At this point I kind of think that my school just wants us students to suffer and nothing else. D:
