Hello again

QUOTE OF THE DAY
"Bleehh bluggg uggg blurrgg blahh *drool* aaaackk arrrrrrrggg ahhhhhfffggguuhh"- Me

Hello. Long time no talk. How have you been? Don't look at me like that, I haven't been neglecting you I've just been.... busy.
Yes, fine, I have been neglectful but I have also been very busy.
But now my breathing is labored, I'm exhausted but I cannot sleep due to stress, and I am choking back tears of absolute panic. Because there is no way. There is no freaking way that I am going to complete my FLVS classes on time outside of divine intervention. So yes, I am reverting back to this form of therapy.
Hi blog. I'm back. And this is the one thing I would like to say to you
III HAAATEE YOU FLVS I FREAKIN FREAKIN HATE YOU GO DIEEE!!!!! I'M GOING TO FAIL MY AP EXAMS AND I HATE FAILING ANYTHING AND I HATE EVERYTHING WHEN I FAIL AT ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that's off my chest.
Also in the sports world, the Bruins are tied in the series with the Candiens in the playoffs, and I am now listening to this game which is also tied. It's the third period right now and 2-2. Celtics swept the Nicks, so they'll be moving on which is awesome, and Red Sox are still, um, trying to pull it together.
There's something comforting about listening to the skidding of skates against the ice and the slapping of the hockey sticks. Hockey is a good sport. I'll always be a baseball girl, but hockey is a good sport.

Currently reading: Lord of the Rings; Blood of the Fold

I know what you're thinking. "Well, Virginia, maybe if you didn't read so much you'd actually get some work done." And, yeah, you're 100% right. I realize that, but I can't stop. I'm an addict. =(

Teen Angst part 23948092358034895039485

QUOTE OF THE DAY!
"All because of you, I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos. The kind that bring you home, when home becomes a strange place." - Rise Against


So I am considering renaming this blog from "Dang ninja stole my chocolate chips", or whatever dumb name I have for it now, to "TEEN ANGST!!!!!!!" Because that is basically what I convey to this mysterious lone page in  the bustling, humongous world of cyberspace in every single post. Unfortunately, I don't know how to change the name of the blog or if I even CAN change the name of the blog.
Why don't I blog when I'm in a good mood? I PROMISE I'm not constantly whiny. But when I'm in a good mood I'm usually productive so I'm usually working. Bad mood =  inability to think of anything but self-pity = wanting to indulge in chocolate, stupid movies, and SHOW THE WORLD MY ANGER!!! GRRR!!!!

I'm a horrible person. I'm the kind of horrible person that says things like this:
My Dear Friend: "I hate seeing all of these happy couples. It makes me sad."
Yours Truly: "Well, you could just be cynical like me and not care because they are all going to break up soon anyways."
<3 Hehe.
Anyways, cynical/angsty people don't always give great advice. So maybe I'm just a very short-tempered person. At least I know one person that can relate.
That's right folks, Harry Potter. See this is why we're in love and going to get married, we completely understand each other!!! It's like JK Rowling wrote him just for me!!!

Next time I feel like saying something mean I'll  just bang my head against a wall, while muttering, "angst" repeatedly. Though, I'd have to risk Ron invading my personal space.. Ugg...
Life is so full of decisions.


Currently reading: Hamlet; Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee
(Which reminds me, I need to do a review blog of all the books I read in January, since I didn't blog at all in January.)
QUESTION OF THE DAY!!!
Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of a bees?
What? Can't I opt out? Well, it depends on the quantity of bees in the swarm, how big the bear is, and if there is a lake nearby.
