Butterflies, really?

Again. My stomach has something against me. What even causes butterflies? Let's wiki it.
...
Butterflies in the stomach is a medical condition characterized by the physical sensation of a "fluttery" feeling in the stomach. This sensation can be a physical sensation related to the body's fight or flight response or it can be an ineffable experience related to the psychology of true love or nervousness.
Some believe that this is caused by the release of epinephrine (adrenaline) when one is nervous, pulling blood away from the stomach and sending it to the muscles. This reduced blood flow, in turn, causes the stomach to temporarily shut down, and possibly the reason for reduced appetite during love sickness. ~Wikipedia
Well, that was informing. Is that the right word? Now I'm informed about butterflies... Whatever. So, either I'm lovesick or nervous. Or both. Or neither? But then why would I have butterflies? I'm just adrenaline-pumped? By laying in bed writing a blogpost? I don't think so.
I'm just anxious for Saturday. I don't know if it'll be good or if it'll stink. Also Sunday.

Oh! Good news! I got my license!! What!! Dunno when I'll be able to drive by myself, though.
I should go to sleep.

Okay, good night. I don't have much more to say. Except Saturday can't come quickly enough.

Love,

*sigh*

This week is going to be dull. I have drama rehearsal every day. Now, usually I'd be pretty excited about this, but since my best friend is in Florida, it's just kind of depressing.
So... hurry up and get back. I miss you.
Anyways, tomorrow we're going to work on makeup! Yeah! This should be interesting.
Uhm... yeah. I'm not really in the mood for anything except sleeping and watching Psych at this point in time. How pathetic is that?
...
Yeah.
I'm a mess.
Does that happen to you? Someone is gone, your friend, your sibling, someone, and you're just completely unbalanced all of a sudden. It's like I'm balancing on one foot now. Not so great at that. Well, some days it works and some days it doesn't. If you dance, you'll know what I'm talking about.
I haven't cried yet, though. Don't think I will. I'm not that fragile. Nor that dependent. Maybe.
My dad might work out of the country for a while next year. And we'd go with him. I don't think I'd be able to live as myself. A whole summer? Dang.
Butterflies are an interesting feeling to have. Ouch.
I should write those reports that are due tomorrow.
... not that I want to. Not that I want to do anything.

It's song lyrics time. These are some scattered lyrics.

... I'm staying up all night hoping, hitting my head against the wall... I'm all strung out my heart is fried. I just cant get you off my mind... I get so high when you're with me, but crash and crave you when you leave...
Your Love Is My Drug ~ Ke$ha

Yeah, she has (mostly) bad songs, but this pretty much describes how I'm feeling right now. She has a weird style. It's all like... weird. Yeah. Most of my friends don't like her. I can see why. But I like this song.

Uhm... that's all.

Love,

Goodbyes are too hard

My best friend is driving down to Florida. Actually, I think he's in Florida right now. Their family is going to DisneyWorld for his mom's birthday. Well, I'm jealous...
Anyways, Friday we hung out for a while. Saw Iron Man 2, pretty good, and just... hung out... yeah. Then we went to our homeschool group's show... thingy. The Extravaganza. It was pretty good. Immediately afterwards, though, they left to drive 17 hours to Orlando. How much fun is that? Bleah. Anyways, I've been in an odd mood lately. We had rehearsal/set working stuff for Sound of Music, but they weren't there... it was weird...
I don't like goodbyes.
I also have a lime green stuffed bunny. Who looks like a dog. And his name is Gerald P. Bunny.
Peace out.

Love,
Sarah @)~

MayMayMay!

I like May. It's pretty, rainy, and usually pretty warm. Today it's pouring, but it's really cold.
Today I get to go see Iron Man 2!! The first one was super awesome. The second one looks pretty cool, but sequels are usually not so great....
I've been watching a lot of Psych. It's this super awesome show about a "psychic" detective. He's actually just hyper-observant, but he pretends to be a psychic. It's really funny, 'cause he acts like a complete idiot, haha.
Uhm... business as usual. School is almost over, though. Yay!!
I'm gonna go write a book report... blah. Peace out. Okay, go. Haha :]

Love,

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh!

So! Today is AWESOME. 81 degrees. YESSSS!!!
Michigan has tricky, tricky weather. Dunno why. Maybe it just likes messing with our heads. After 80 degrees for a week, it decided that it likes Winter better and went back to 50 degrees. Grump. But! Today it has, yet again, changed it's bipolar mind. And y'all down in the South best keep your mouths shut about 80s and 90s and whatever. :P
I'm going to do homework outside today. Yes, that's sounds like an excellent plan. A very excellent plan indeed.

Today, I'm in a write-y romantic sort of mood. The abundance of things on my mind, all of which probably shouldn't be on my mind, are forcing African Literature to escape the realm of my focus and attention. Hahaha, that was such a sappy line.

Tomorrow it had better not rain, as we have a rehearsal/set building day at a cottage on a lake. Unfortunately, we can't go swimming, but hanging out outside in 75 degree weather is kind of totally awesome.

Titania and Oberon is going well. We tried one of the lifts and he can only lift me to his shoulders instead of all the way up..... but I'm sure we'll get it. Why do I devote all of my time to ballet?

Okay, so get this. President Obama is talking at the UofM stadium. This means ballet is canceled. I can now say that Obama himself directly affected my life. :P

Oooh, I also just found a cool song! It's hip-hoppy rap, but I really like it. It's called Airplanes by B.o.B with Hayley Williams. It's kinda sad... "Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now." Oops, there's a bad word. If you want to listen to it, here's the link. But it's rap and there's a not so great word. :( Otherwise it's a cool song. And Hayley Williams is DA BOMB! Yes, I just said da bomb. So shoot me. Anyways, she's the singer in Paramore, which is an awesome band. Soooo go check them out.

Whoops, lunchtime. Whoa, and it's already 2:30... I should start reading those (pretty lame) African stories. Peace!

Love,

Confusion

Stop? Go? Wait?
Mixed messages from myself.
Unclear messages from God.
I'm confused.
Patience is annoying.
A person is good.
Patience is better.
Makes no sense, now does it?
But such is reality.
God is the best.
Good night.

Love,

Happy with a Headache...

Hey ya!
I just got home from my friends' house, and we had a pretty awesome time. I have a really bad headache right now, though...

I'm just gonna quote a song that's been stuck in my head.

"I know that it's so cliché to tell you that everyday I spend with you is the new best day of my life. Everyone watching us just turns away with disgust. This jealously, they can see that we've got it going on. I'm racking my brain for a new improved way to let you know, you're more to me than what I know how to say You're okay with the way this is going to be, 'cause this is going to be the best thing we've ever seen..."

Must Have Done Something Right ~ Relient K

That's all. Goodnight, y'all. I'm going to bed.

Love,

Best Day...

Wow, yesterday was sheer awesomeness.
Awesome time at the Sparrows' with 6 guys who had little to no sleep the night before, and another girl who was just about as tired as I was. It was interesting...and super duper fun!
- We played Super Smash Bros. Brawl - I won two out of three times. With Kirby. OH YEAH!!
- We drew cool pictures, even if mine were lame... I can't draw very well at all, so I traced the drawings mostly... hehe
- We went on a fairly non-eventful walk in the chilly Spring air. That was fun. Although... I somehow ended up stuck in a British accent...
- My best friend and I had an awesome tickle fight, although it was very one-sided. I'm not ticklish, bwahaha. Needless to say, I ended the victor. That was probably my favourite part of the day. Well... not probably, definitely. :]

All in all, I think it was a perfect day. A very perfect day.

I'm super psyched for ballet right now. My teacher says I'm doing very well, and she even put my in a pas de deux - step of two, in French, freaking awesome in ballet language. It's Titania and Oberon from Midsummer Night's Dream. BLAH I'M SO EXCITED!!! Rehearsal tomorrow!! But that means I have to cram schoolwork... man.... I should actually probably get to that sometime really soon...

Okay... I think I'm done. I don't have much to say, and I should get to schoolwork. So, byebye!

Love,

It's April 14th again!

Okay, song quote time.

"It's been a year filled with problems, but now you're here, almost as if to solve them, and I can't live in a world without you now. All my life I've been searching for you. How did I survive in this world before you? 'Cause I don't want to spend another day without you now. This is the best thing - the best thing that could be happening, and I think you would agree, the best thing is that it's happening to you and me."

The Best Thing ~ Relient K

Good song. The video is also wicked awesome. Yes, I just used the word wicked.

Anyways, so last April 14th something pretty cool happened. But... it's a secret. It'll be a secret until next October. Then I'll tell you. Aren't I so terribly mean? It's not a very exciting secret... but that's okay. It's one of the best things that's happened to me. It's special to me. Special to a person may be super lame for another person... but that's alright. Do you have a super special secret that's only special to you?

I'm in a Relient K kinda mood. They're awesome.

Oh, I have to write something, but I left my notebook in the car.... Hm... Well, I guess I'll get it tomorrow. I don't really want to go outside at 11pm.

So, I started reading a manga called Bleach...again. I've started watching the anime twice, but both times I got really bored... However, the manga is WAY cooler than the anime, even though it doesn't have all the neato sound effects and voices. The manga is 399 chapters so far... I'm at 151. Still a ways to go... But I read pretty fast, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. If you don't mind a lot of fighting and blood, it's a good manga. It's all action-y and cool. But if you don't like nasty stuff or violence, you probably won't want to read it.

Well, I'm going to go read some more, then go to bed. Good night!

Love,

Happy Snuday!

That's right, snuday. My friend Tristan, AKA Snuboy, reminded me of it. Last year on this day we had a snuball fight. Yes, that is how random my friends and I are. Also, Snuboy can't talk properly. He tried saying snow, but it turned into snu... Quite the day. If you look at one of the posts I made last April, there's a part about it.

Lately I've been reading manga a lot... It's probably been too much. Anyways, I read this series called W Juliet. It's really good...but kinda weird. It's about this guy who doesn't want to take on his father's job; he wants to be an actor. His father says that if he can get through high school as a girl, he can become an actor. Makoto, the guy, does so, and meets this girl, Ito, who finds out his secret. Surprisingly enough, it's hardly racy at all. I mean, it's really weird..... It's not all morally straight... But it was clean, and I really liked it. It was really sappy and romantic, but I'm a sucker for romantic stories.

Speaking of romantic stories, check out Kite Streamers by Wang Meng. It's a Chinese story, so it's translated into English (by Lu Binghong) but seriously, it's the cutest story I've read.

I'm gonna be out all day tomorrow, so I should probably get some sleep. Dang waking up early on Saturdays. *madface*
