Appetizer: What kind of car do you drive? If you could make an even trade for any other car, what would you want to drive? no car, very unfortunatly, though I would love to have a jeep cherokee
Soup: Take your phone number and add each number together separately (example: 8+6+7+5+3+0+9=38) - what's the total? 38 (ironic)
Salad: When were you last outside, and what were you doing?I went shopping, but as for actually spending time outside: earlier I was outside with my Dad replacing my tire tube and blowing up all of our soccer and basketballs
Main Course: What is your favorite restaurant, and what do you usually order there?hmm...probably Bertucci's or any of the nice restaurants in Philly.
Dessert: Name 3 things in which you occasionally indulge. chocolate candy, milk-shakes, peanut butter


Thursday - July 21, 2005 - Out to Philly...
Going to see West Side Story with Kate, should be a lot of fun. SO expensive, but I guess its okay to splurge every once in a while. I have to get off soon, to get Alex and myself ready.

I have seriously been posting non-stop on HP NEtwork, its pretty interesting actually, my only way to vent about HP as Steve cancelled our date, haha, j/k. We were just going to hang out and chat it up as I havent seen him since school ended.

Friday Feast...
Appetizer: What is your middle name? Would you change any of your names if you could? If so, what would you like to be called? Anne, probably not, but I might like an older more significant first name.
Soup: If you were a fashion designer, which fabrics, colors, and styles would you probably use the most? blues, I like plaid actually, or the bandana paisley pattern, I like the vintage style a lot, bringing back anything, even certain trends from the middle ages or something, lol.
Salad: What is your least favorite chore, and why? cleaning, because you get all sweaty and gross.
Main Course: What is something that really frightens you, and can you trace it back to an event in your life? being alone; I was a pretty friendless kid when I was younger and even now I have trouble making friends and an even harder time retaining them.
Dessert: Where are you sitting right now? Name 3 things you can see at this moment. at the computer in my dad's room. my cell phone, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, my blank cd stack

Wedesday - July 20, 2005 - The Harry Potter Lament...
I want the next book now! lol, unfortunatly that is quite impossible as it has not even been commenced.
I have been posting non-stop on HP Network since I finished. I also talked to Steve and Matt about it. Its a bad obssession really, a bad habit as well.

It feels weird to be back at work. My week away felt as though it went by in a flash but it also seems like its been ages since I was at work. I dont know, I have a good time. Today I had like 10 ice pops, actually more like 4, but it was still a lot, lol.

I think I might go have some tea, read, and relax, Im really getting tired of the computer. Ive been on non-stop. The rating for number of messages is annoying because I feel compelled to get to like 4th year thought Im not even half way through 1st year now.

Tuesday - July 19, 2005 - Harry Potter Lives...
No, no. I cant believe it. This is worse than when Sirius died, a little less unexpected, but still. I knew Snape would betray him, I knew it. After the unbreakable vow. I also thought Draco wasnt all bad, at heart I think he is okay. Harry better get back with Ginny, he needs her, I want them to be together. from the beginning of this book I knew they would be together. Ron and Hermione are together, inevitable as well. I was also saying before the book that something would happen to one of the Weasleys. Bill.
Kind of reminds me of Gandalf, only Gandalf returned. But he had all this knowledge, really old, friend to leaders, died during journey.
Its not fair, lol.

Tuesday - July 5, 2005 - Life...
I'm so tired, more than I thought possible during the summer. I looked forward to nice rest and relaxation only to find none.

I dont even feel like writing or thinking or anything, my brain seems to be moving backwards. I cant wait for August. No more job, and England, wonderful England.
Alex is just taking away not only all my energy but also any patience and nerves that I have. My energy already gets sapped enough from work. Little kids make you more tired than even I could imagine. My room is a mess, Abby is not doing well, I have been avoiding my summer homework entirely. I feel like I've just been wasting precious time doing nothing. Maybe I just cant relax anymore, lol. I wouldnt actually find that hard to believe.

Sunday - July 3, 2005 - Harry Potter time...
Im so bored... and frustrated. Im finally on HPOoP, all wonderful books, I dont know which one is my favorite, definitly one of the last three, probably HPPoA.

Friday - July 1, 2005 - Frustration...
Im so angry Im not going to Live8. Sarah and like everyone else is away. All my friends are so boring, lol. The like to pretend they're crazy and wild but they really arent at all in the true sense. Its too late to figure out anything now, but if I had known who was playing here I definitly would have worked something out. Marroon 5, Linkin Park, Josh Groban, some good solid other acts as well. And its right in my backyard practically. This is really not fair.

Appetizer: Where do you plan to go on vacation this year, or where would you want to go?
England, thankd the Lord. Most amazing place on Earth for sure. If I can, I would love to get back to Australia one day, its so beautiful and fresh.
Soup: What color is your bedroom? If you could redecorate it, what would you change?
haha, funny you should ask. I am nearly done redoing mine finally, after 10 years waiting and a nearly 3 year long process. it is a light almost wedgewood-like blue.
Salad: Do you have a bumper sticker on your vehicle? What does it say?
I dont have a vehicle but if I did have one I would have a bush campagin sticker on it
Main Course: What's the worst pain you've ever been in?
probably when I tore my ACL, it wasnt the immediate pain because it didnt actually hurt that much when I tore it. It was after, when I tried to walk around on it and eventually when I had to use the crutches. It was impossible to be comfortable, especially when I slept, because I would have to bend my knee over a pillow and then make sure I layed on my back not moving the whole night, it sucked. Crutches werent much better. Between your one leg hurting from supporting your whole weight, your underarms from rubbing, your hands from supporting you, your arms from the same and then my knee at the same time, it wasnt very nice shall we say.
Dessert: Who is your favorite celebrity? What do they do that inspires you?
Of movie stars, I really like Natalie Portman because she is so elegant and unselfish and plain intelligent. Of others, I have to say I love Prince William. He volunteered in Africa and with other charities and has accepted his role as prince extraordinarly well.

Time to get off I think. I want to go read and relax. Harry Potter always does me well.
I want to write something about West Side Story, but I think later is the better reply for that one.

Tuesday - June 21, 2005 - Summer Begins...
No school, yes, lol. This is amazing, let me tell you. Sleep, rejuventation, sleep, relax, sleep, read, and did I mention sleep?
I feel proud of myself that I finally figured out how to get the sidebar to scroll so the layout looks as it was to. Im trying to fix the tagboard now but who knows if that will ever work out, lol.

Friday feast...
Appetizer: What's one word or phrase that you use a lot? "like", when Im typing "lol". I also use "you know" far too often than is necessary
Soup: Name something you always seem to put off until the last minute. Any item of schoolwork, or applications
Salad: What was the last great bumper sticker you saw? Bush Cheney '04 (haha)
Main Course: If you could be invisible for one day, how would you spend your time? that is a good one...Id like to follow my friends around maybe...get into a place Ive never been able to, perhaps either travel around the world for free or sit in the middle or on stonehenge jsut thinking
Dessert: Describe your hair. I just cut it actually, quite dramatically to be specific, its a light brown, natural so not many highlights, its usually limp and ramrod straight

I always find it so dissapointing when you see that old sites you used to like are gone. I go through my favoirtes and half the links are dead ends now. It makes me a bit sad.
Time to go, I need to go do something productive. Since I like this layout, I'll not put up another for a while yet, but certainly before England, maybe Ill do a British inspired one. (accomplished)
