off.

this is stupid. no one reads these. i'm off for a while. i don't care about this anymore.

sincerely,
liz.

special needs kids acting as janitors at lunch? comment/read.

woww. oh my goodness. it's been so long, and so much has happened, since i blogged last.

i don't even remember every weekend since then? so umm. i guess i'll just list some highlights/updates.

• me, ashley, my grandma (nanny), & my mom went to blowing rock in the rain, ate kilwin's, ate more, shopped some, and laughed the most i've laughed in one day..ever.
• HAH i went to ashley's neighborhood party last weekend, we had some fun. <--definitely a night i'll never forget. ;) :X :O
  
• i read & finished the count of monte cristo in english class! hah. i sound like a nerd for putting this on here, but it's actually a good book. and having to read like 70 pages every two nights makes you think about it all the time. haha.
• as for guys, i don't like who i thought i did. just got a bad vibe from him, even though it may be in my head. :|
  
• have so many guys i flirt with. and i like it that way. :) if something more comes out of that, then so be it. but i'm more happy single, than i've been in a while.
• started a new project in art. i'm drawing this dog/coyote thing. mine SUCKS. hahahaha. whatevs.
• i think i may be pulling up my grade in english? score. but tomorrow will most likely ruin that, since we have a HUGE test on the count that i have yet to study for (at ten thirty the night before). haha.
• mom went to vegas AGAIN. me & dad had fun chilling, driving around, going out to eat, and watching movies in the basement, as usual. <3
• going to church with amy sometime last week made me realize how much i need Christ back in my life. i have him in my heart, no doubt, but i miss the strong relationship that i've felt before. :/

ANDD by the way. amy brought this to my attention. and now i've noticed it & felt true sympathy about it since. okay, so special needs/E.C. kids clean up after us in the cafeteria every day. they wipe down the tables, take out trash & stuff, and mop/sweep. i think this is RIDICULOUS. they already feel out-of-it enough, why would you freaking make them be janitors at lunch? i think you'd try & make them feel as normal as possible. they are, after all, teenagers in high school too. even though they have learning disabilities or mental ones, they have personalities, social lives, friends, and feelings too. amy was saying that her sister, when she was in high school, asked the principal about it, & she had replied that these activities increased their skills so that, since they wouldn't probably be able to become things like lawyers, doctors, etc, they could at least have the abilities to get jobs such as janitors, & so forth. that is RIDICULOUS. that makes me so mad. i personally know 2 kids in the E.C. program, and they are hilarious and bring joy to my days. these two specific girls don't have to do the whole lunch-clean up thing. it's always the same ones every day. i don't know how they pick which kids? but umm. i think it's horrible. someone needs to do something about it, no lie. leave comments with what you think on it. some of my friends i've talked to about it agree with it, and think it's giving them something to do. tell me your opinion. :)

write sometime soon hopefullyyy?
sincerely,
liz.

another 'best weekend ever.'

i now have weird, strange, feelings for someone i never expected. ;) it's fun.

i am OVER a guy. thank goodness. hahahahahhahahaha and it makes me laugh.

anddddd. there are still two guys that i think are amazing, and they have no idea.

this weekend was GREATTT. haha, i went home with ashley, hung out with caleb & bryant, then went to the gameee. it was funnn. then i spent the night with her, then saturday. we...had some fun. hahahha. :X :O :)

wowww. hahah ANYWAYS! saturday night was a blast tooo.
i'm being very vague and stuff b/c amy's on her way to pick me up. we have to go get some stuff for a quick, last-minute twin day fixup! hahaha. because...

jealousy.

so. today was like a closure day to me, in the best way possible. i'm done. i'm over it. i'm moving on. finally, and once and for all. hallelujiah that i heard just what i needed to hear to make it a done deal for me. thank goodness i'm no longer involved in something/with someone that would force me to change my morals to please this person. i thought i had more respect for him than he actually deserves from me. i care about him and will be there for him, but am SO glad that i now know his true intentions, and what really matters to him. if he truly cared about me, he wouldn't want to change me. goodbye. new chapter in this part of my life. :)

i know that made absolutely no sense to many of the ones reading, but hey. that doesn't matter. it felt good to say. so thanks, blogger, for listening. bahah, i'm pathetic.

ANYWHO.
today had a lot of exciting events. the top paragraph pretty much sums up one of them. another one, was that i got bitched out just for trying to stick up for my friend. hahaha. it makes me laugh that someone would be so insecure about themselves and so pathetic that they'd have to sit there & talk about people and say that they wish that person was dead. you just don't wish that on people. how immature, if only knew what she was actually saying.

other events of the day..civics, we played review games. art, we had a sub & we drew. (WOW, what a surprise! ha.) english, we had a sub & read and answered questions. spanish, we had a quiz & did arts and crafts pointless stuff.
boring day over all, in the "classes" category.

lunch is now not enjoyable really. i'm getting so close to bethany, because we walk from class to class together & talk about everything under the sun, and i sit at lunch with her. :) since ashley, sterling, hayden, zach, all themm..think they're so cool and don't want to talk to us even? haha. soooo. me her & luke and logan moretz have fun by ourselves. idk why that pisses me off so bad. but it does. they think they're so cool. whatever. haha.

SOOOOO. so many feelings/emotions in one day. tomorrow, is friday! hallelujiah. i'm going home with ashley, hanging out with caleb & bryant i think :D, going to the game YAYAYAY, then spending the night with ashersss. then saturday, i think we're going to nick's house, hahaha. so i'm pretty excited to meet him. then i'm spending the night sat. night AGAIN with ashley. hahaha, this is going to be such a fun weekend. i can't wait. <3333 :)

sincerely,
liz.

tests galore.

so, LABOR day was good. (in my last post, i accidentally put memorial day, shut up)

me & my dad went to the lake with the jarretts. i ended up not tubing, because i didn't feel like getting KILLED. haha. and i'm a wimp. oh well. but it was fun riding in the boat and all that jaz.

today was a pretty good day too. i LOVE my classes this semester. like, i don't mind school at all really, besides the waking up early part. tomorrow i have 3 tests. :/ an art test, which should be easy. a les mis big test that i'm probably going to fail considering i forget everything from there, and a spanish test, which should be okay, at least.

i found out some of that news tonight where the person tells you, then says, "but you can't say ANYTHING!" haha. i hate that. :(

oh and BTW. i HATEE when people over-analyze things like texts and stuff. like no shut up, i just said it because i felt like it. it didn't mean anything. haha.

randommmm, i know. $#%!^!

God's good.

SO. lots to catch up on. i've had a busy past couple of days. amazing, but busy. :)

thursday was school, ashley's house, jv game at home (where brian morrissette made me pee my pants almost), & home. pretty good day, i'd say.

friday, school, home for a second, went to see time traveler's wife with amy, ashley & her mom, then went to the game at west lincoln, then went to meredith's for the night! fun day.

saturday, i came home from meredith's, ate lunch, went to bojangles with my brother (who decided to come home again this weekend), then me and my dad randomly decided to drive up to blowing rock, which was amazinggg. we ate at kilwin's ice cream, which has the BEST ice cream ever, then walked around and stuff. then we stopped off of the blue ridge parkway at this place called "rough ridge." it was only like a 10 minute walk up there. and me and my dad went out on this rock that was off-limits and got some AMAZINGLY pretty pictures. (like the one above) it goes down as one of the most amazing views i've ever seen. so pretty. God's good. :D

today, i went to church, went to ernie's to eat with my daddy, then we went to get some keys made at home depot, got a CUTE license plate that says life's good with a flower on it for my carrr, & went to best buy for some x-box controller? now i'm at home. i need to read the count of monte cristo (sp?) and & clean. so i better get off of here. it's been an AMAZING weekend.

tomorrow we're going to the lake for memorial day with the jarretts. so that should be fun. :)

WRITE LATER!
