Adapted Fan-Fiction
I enjoy adapting Harry Potter Fan Fiction to my friend's life. It actually works pretty well. She is like Hermione, who is in love with her good friend's brother. (Ginny and Ron) The guy her friend likes is Harry. It's good fun.

Math Class
I love my math class; I don't like math but my class rocks because I'm in there with one of my best friends and a bunch of awesome sophmores/juniors/seniors/freshman. My math teacher is a total spaz, and she's really funny. I love math class.

Piano Man
I really like the song Piano Man right now.
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The Regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes.
"La la la, di da daLa la, di da da da dum
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As the smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie starIf I could get out of this place"
Oh, la la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy,
Who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you got us feeling alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile'
Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?
"Oh, la la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody and you got us feeling alright

The State of the Union
Well, I just watched the State of the Union address on TV and I actually didn't think it was boring. I had to watch it because we get extra credit in geography for it, and I just know I'm going to bomb an upcoming test. I think President Bush(who's initials also stand for Giant Water Buffalo) has good ideas, but doesn't know how to make them happen. I actually have that same problem, but I think it's worse for him because his decisions affect almost the entire world. I don't think he's doing a great job getting to what he wants, but his plans seem to contradict each other. We're going to eliminate the National Debt, but at the same time we're going to lower taxes and increase funding for just about everything? That makes no sense. Poor guy, he's got an impossible job. Anyway, that's my take on all things political. The end.
By the way, I'm having a much better day than I was in my last post.

Bad Day
I had another bad day. Let's just leave it at that. Orchestra sucks.
Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind

Humph
I hate my life. Orchestra sucks. I abhore Ms. John, an evil demon who's entire purpose is to make people commit suicide because death is better than class with her. I hate this friggin computer that won't let me friggin type anything. I hate science, I mean, who cares about flippin ionic bonding and the flippin law of mass consercrapthing? I hate tests with a passion deeper than the earth. I dread my daily battle with the violin. I loathe piano. I hate remodeling. I hate not having any food in the house. I hate grades. I hate school. I hate Fingerpower. I hate school. I hate my life.

Wierd Stuff
What's the wierdest experience you've ever had? Mine would have to be practicing the piano while it's being moved.The Things People Learn Out of School.
The following is an e-mail that I got from a good friend of mine, and I completely agree with her.
i think i learn more useful information OUT of school then i do IN school.To prove this, I'll list what i learned while on Winter Break.
Things Hannah Learned Over Break
-Despite the fact that they can sing way better than I can ever hope for, all the members of "The Wallflowers" are...how do i put this? A "different" sight.
-Beyonce's mock-beehive hairstyle was popular in the 80's
-After high school, I want to wait a couple of years before going to college, and be a flight attendant instead. Unless i need a degree or some kickboxing classes to do that ("Sir, please sit back down" "no way! im getting off this plane" "well, if thats the way you want to deal.." (BAM BAM BAM!). "my ribs....." "now sir, would you please get back in your seat...")
-Various knitting techniques
-The weirdest line in U2's song "Numb" is "Have another grape"
-How they found Noah's ark, and who found it.
-College is just like high school, with different living conditions
-If you stay in a chlorinated pool for about two and a half hours, toenail polish will peel right off your toes (useful if you want a polish change)
-If you find a cute pair of jeans at American Eagle, you can get them for ten dollars cheaper at Macy's
-Sherlock Holmes mysteries, though hard to read at first, are very interesting.
-If you see a T-Rex, dont move. But if you see a velociraptor, look to the left and the right then run like heck because they do weird three-pronged attacks. They also have different vocal sounds. And dont ever zap one of those small chicken-like dinosaurs with a cattle prod. When you are all alone, they will gang up of you. (i watched all three "Jurassic Park"s)
-A woman sold snow on Ebay
-My dream job would be playing with the CBS Orchestra on "The Late Show"
-The music video for "All i want is you" can make me almost-cry
-The resturaunt "Texas Roadhouse" has large cactuses..cacti? at head level, and if you turn around too fast, you will sustain serious injury
-Various ways to take over the world (Pinky and the Brain anyone?)
-Skydiving costs around $200 for a tandem dive, and $300-600 for solo divesnow,
dont you think thats way more important than Lewis-dot diagrams and verb conjugations? and thats not all i learned. i just didnt want to bore you with various facts about music artists, cds, and anything else music related.
My Response:
that was an awesome list, i really enjoyed it. i think i'll try to make one of my own.

Snow Day.... Again
Another snow day. I'm sick of snow. Why won't it stop snowing? I'm sick of snow. I hate slush. I'm sick of snow. My friend Katie and I had a sleepover last night and that was a ton of fun. Then, this morning, we decided to do some of our service hours for National Junior Honors Society. We shoveled people's driveways for free for about four hours. I'm so tired. The end. I'm sick of snow.

The Not-So New Year
I've never really cared about New Year's Eve or New Year's. For me, it's just another day. My life and year revolves around school, so the end of the school year is more like New Year's for me. I just don't really get New Years. I didn't make any resolutions because it's just like another month for me. Summer is my resolution time.
