Nothing is a strange word. It can mean one of three things:
1. absolutely nothing (in it's bare form)
2. something that's barely anything
3. something really important (normally that is either none of your business, or is your business, not the speaker's)
If those definitions confused you to death, here are some examples of the three types.
1. Miss Chi walks to your desk and peers down at your clean, white peice of paper. "What have you written so far?" she asks, even though it is obvious. "Nothing," you sheepishly reply.
2. You see Elisa laying on the grass, her legs crossed, hands behind her head. "What are you doing?" you question her. "Nothing," she replies.
3. You walk up to Jordan and Luke talking intently. As soon as you appear beside them, they quickly stop talking. "What are you guys talking about?" you ask suspiciously. "Nothing," they reply, blushing and trying desperately to look innocent.
(all incidents are purely fictional)
It has such an all-encompassing, widely used word, that holds many meanings. Without it, the devoid, the dull, and the suprisingly interesting, would be without testament.

Awesome day!
I'm not gonna go into all the little details why, but I assure you it was fun!
One thing wasn't so great though. In English, I was just sitting there minding my own busines when Miss Chi announces that we are having the book report oral presentation. "WHAT??" I thought, gazing around at all the perfectly content and relaxed students. I freaked out. Quickly opening my book I flipped the pages loudly, and hastily scribbled out an outline. I winged it, but it turned out all right. Well, other than the fact that I was informed by Miss Chi that my presentation was "boring". Thanks a lot.
ANOTHER THING - I'm not sure if this is considered good or not but Miss Rina enlightened me to the fact that I look like a Japanese cartoon caracter. Um, ok? Here's a pic of what I think she meant.

Is that a good thing to look like her? I'm unsure.
Well, it was a fun day overall. I hope yours was just as um, informative.....?

I LOVE YOU OWL CITY!!!
And yes I am yelling.
I think.
Today I started playing Hello Seatle and doing algebra. Suddenly, something came over me and I leapt out of my chair and started jumping up and down and kind of dancing. Or whatever you wanna call it. For like the whole time, and the next song, hot air balloon (they are my feel-good songs).
I can do nothing but smile now. =D
AHH!! Life is good.
I think.

Quotes I live by
"Make your good, better, and your better, best."
"A friend is someone who know everything about me, and still likes me."
"Don't wait for the storm to pass, dance in the rain."
"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
"Somewhere behind the rider you've become, the hours of practice you've put in, and the coaches that have pushed you, is the little girl that fell in love with the sport, and never looked back. Ride for her."
"If you think the Mona Lisa is stunning you should look at my masterpiece. In the mirror." -God
"And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."
"You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present."
"There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go."
"The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief. "
"If you stare to much at the closed door, you can't see the opening one."
"Horses are proof God loves us, and wants us to be happy."
"Life isn't about the number of breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away."
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
"The will of God will never take you, where the grace of God can not keep you." (thanks Ashley! =D)
I will edit this post and keep them coming as I find them. I hope they are a blessing to you!! Please keep checking this post!!

Not Alone lyrics
I'll give $5 dollars to whoever can tell me who wrote this.
And DON'T cheat and google "not alone".
NO, I really will.
PLEASE tell me what you really think of this song.
song lyrics for:
Not Alone
I raise my face to the falling rain
I cry out to God to help me
I know He can
But will He, will He, will He….?
Fix this broken heart
shattered like glass
broken, tattered, torn
look at this mess i've made
all the friends i've betrayed
I can't go on this way
i've lost the grip on life
that
Oooh, I'm soo alo-o-o-one, alone
im tryin to hold on in this rocking world
i feel as if im gonna fall off
turnin', turnin' turnin' so fast
I can't keep up
i cant hold on - no longer
my hands are slipping'
look at this mess i've made
friends that i've betrayed
I can't go on this way
i've lost the grip on life
that i never had
Ooh, I'm soo alo-o-o-one, alone
tha' dawn breaks the silence
i hear a whispered word
why are you trying?
to hold onto the world?
I'm your World, and I'm holding onto to you!!!!
But I say -
Jesus, look at this mess I've made
the friends that I've betrayed
I kept on in that way
i lost the grip on life
that i never had
But he still whispers back at me,
My lovely child - your not A - LOOOOOOO-O-O-ONE
ALOOOO-O-O-ONE
not alone
And DON'T cheat and google "not alone".
NO, I really will.
PLEASE tell me what you really think of this song.

Today
Today was a super blonde day. I did a bunch of blonde stuff, but I think one of the worst (IF you don't count the "raw meat" episode) was when I was walking back to the farm with Andrew and Cassandra. Cassandra was talking in Romanian to Mr. Cosmin (they are both Romanian), and I happened to hear him say "Da" several times. I asked Cassandra if that meant yes, and she said that I was correct. I then promptly replied, "That's funny, because "da" is yes in Romanian too!" Andrew and Cassandra just stared at me for like 37 seconds, until I blushed and sheepishly said, "You WERE speaking in Romanian, huh?" to which she wordlessly nodded. DER-TA-DER!!! DUH!!
I'm dumb.
And blonde.
Ok, I'm going to bed. I need the beauty (and hopefully brain!) sleep.
Goodnight. Sleep tight.
