{Our Daydream Spills From My Gold Head}

Yay, at mugga's house today. I usually have some work to do but not today! It's cloudy outside, it might rain. I really don't like rain unless it's warm and in August. I am so bored. Nothing is going on until July when the Reedy family reunion takes place in Erie, PA. CALLING ALL REEDY'S...haha no. I'm actually thinking about changing my last name to my mom's maiden name (which is Scottish) or my great grandmother's name on my dad's side's maiden name (which is French). I'm obviously NOT going to say them on the Internet, because there might just be a psycho killer who only kills petite blonde girls who are half French and half Scottish and who have mugga's. I'm on to you, whoever you are! Hmm. I just ran the spell checker and they said "blonde" should be spelled "blond". That's weird. I like the "e" at the end because it makes the word look femme and less lonely...I guess. Anyway, here's what I did yesterday since we talked last: I took a walk with my dog, "tanned", watched TV, ate pizza, took a shower, "tanned" again, watched "the clique" movie (which is just as good as the books), and went to bed. This morning I woke up, ate breakfast, left for mugga's, went to Tim Hortons (thank you Canada), got an iced latte which really looks and tastes like an iced coffee and iced mocha, got to mugga's, turned on my computer, downloaded iTunes again (my maman had to wipe the hard drive because our Internet wasn't working), read our blog, and started writing this! Whoah. This is, like, the most I've ever written on here ever! Good times. I think I might stop writing for now because I'm getting Carpal Tunnel (of love) and I have nothing else to say. Except that the department of romance languages of MSU hasn't gotten back to me about a tutor, so mugga's going to call them and complain. I really want a native speaker (preferably a male that's not a pain to look at, it's going to be 9th grade biology ALL over again!) because my French teacher said that would be the best one. Haha! Mugga is on the phone with the department now! She's putting on her soft-European business voice on :D ..... okaaayy... now we have to directly email the tutor coordinator to find a tutor...blah. I just want a tutor now.

See ya!

Hello!  I just got home from a meeting.  Wow, I sound so business-like and grown up.  I’m a power-suit and a venti-skinny-caramel-macchiato away from being a working-gal.  But, I’m not, I'm drinking vitamin water and wearing a shirt from Urban Outfitters and a denim skirt.   My Dad sent me money yesterday, yay!  I love birthdays, especially my own.  Well, I advise you to only get the Sultan's Feast if you have people with you that have very big stomachs.  HUUUUGE PLATES!  But now I’m back home and someone turned the air conditioning on wayyyy to high.  So now it’s pretty cold in here.  Okay, I just turned it off, let the house warm up a bit.  I’m so bored right now.  i wanna go and do something.  Well, let us review the past few days of summer.  I went up north, slept over Steaf’s house, had a birthday, went for a bike ride, went to a meeting… yeah, that’s about it.  Oh, and when I say had a birthday, I mean I went to see UP with Urian and Joey (and cried), then went shopping and hung out downtown.   Well I have nothing really interesting to write about, so I’ll let you continue on with your day :)

{Fall Comes As Early As Summer Leaves}

WOW. I am terrible. A jerk actually. I have been obsessed over "laying low" : I've turned off my phone and refused to go on the Internet, that I didn't say HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA to my best friend! I'll make it up to you I swear. Well, nothing exciting is going on here in the outback. I saw the movie Up the other day. It made me cry at least 4 times, Disney movies are getting sappier and sappier. Still no word from my future French tutor yet, I'll have to get my grandmother on that. I'll see her...tomorrow! I LOVE going over to my grandma's house (or mugga as I call her-long story) She has everything European I could ever imagine, and I"m her favorite grandchild! Anyway, I think I'm going to go for a walk with my dog, play some badminton, and fake tan. Crap, I can't because my mom is at class and I have to watch the house. Plus it looks like it's going to rain. I'll figure something out! See you!

happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me…

Laura

It’s my birthday today and it’s a beautiful day out.  Lovely summer day, with the sun in the sky, the grass as green as ever and the sky as blue as… something extraordinarily blue!  ^-^  It’s still early in the day, so no no presents yet, only a few birthday wishes, hug and kisses from my family.   Sweet Sixteen.  Not planning anything spectacular today, just the usual cake, presents and family.  I’m not a big birthday person, unless it’s a birthday for someone who isn’t me.  I like to pay attention to other people’s birthdays and make them cards and presents.  I think I’ll make my 5oth birthday decent ha ha ha :).  Thank you for everyone’s birthday wishes, and I hope you have a wonderful day too!  I think I’ll go and get a zebra print cover for my new phone though!  :) ♥   I bought some awesome shirts!  And i think I’ll wear them tomorrow… well, the Union Jack one anyway.

My birthday is tomorrow!  I got a new phone from my mum today though!   I love it, especially the full qwerty keyboard and that slider part.  It’s 3G too, so now I have… ahem… “America’s fasted 3G network” or something like that.  It had everything I need, like IM and email, texting, camera… you know, that essentials.  I’m stoked, and yes, I just said stoked.  I’ve really needed a new phone for a long time, so really, I’m way over-due.  I’m not doing anything special for my birthday but I’m still excited for it.  :)

Yesterday was fun, I stayed over Steafene’s sister’s house.  We didn’t stay up that late but we still managed to sleep in until 1pm!  I have no idea how we did that.  I also had some really weird dreams… and I strangely could vividly remember them.  I  say dreams and not dream because I woke up several times in the night and each time I went back to sleep… I started dreaming something different.  Well, it rained pretty hard today, so I wont be spending time in the garden really.  I hope you all have a lovely day!  :)

SHINE LIKE SHARK TEETH

Laura

I bleached my roots last night.  Well, actually my mother did it when she got home at around 11:15pm.  I’m all super Barbie blonde now.  Barbie is a name, funny to think about it like that, but what if I named my child Barbie.  That would be unfortunate. But yes, I am very blonde right now, and I’m happy!  I was on the verge of having a hat of black roots!  And I adore the conditioner that comes with the bleach, it makes my hair feel unusually, un-Barbie-doll-ish.  I’m going to see Steafene today.  Her sister is picking me up around 3 o’clock and I’ll be able to see Kaden!  I’m so excited!   I miss that kid, and him mother, and (of course) Steafene.  It has finally set in that Summer is here and that I will not have school tomorrow, and I am SO excited about it!  I just gave a teacher a call, on their mobile phone, they didn’t answer, so I had to leave a message.  Thank God, because I’d think it weird to talk to a teacher on their mobile… whatever.  Well, I’ve been getting massive photography cravings lately, I’ll just see a tree perfectly lit by the orange setting sun, or a tree standing solo in the middle of a field, or a little girl sitting on a bridge with her toes skimming the lake… and I’ll complain about not having a lens.  I really want/need a lens… and soon.

Good afternoon everybody!  Lovely first day of summer, non?  Well, I just went for a bike ride.  It’s pretty warm out, and I passes people having barbeques out the back of their pick-up trucks.  I know there’s a name for that, but I can’t remember it right now.  But, I was riding past and the smell of yummy barbequed food flooded my senses, grrr, meat-cravings much?  Well, as you can tell from the above picture, I fancy myself a bit of an super-amateur photographer.  The only thing that’s getting in the way of me dropping that super is my lack of a decent lens.  I would rally like either a Nikon D60 or a Canon Rebel Xti, but I doubt that will happen any time soon.  Well, since Hannah cited her plans for this lovely summer, I think I shall do that too.  Well, I want to save up all of my birthday money that I’ll hopefully be getting and put it towards my beau, the Nikon D60, and buy some lovely clothes too, of course.  Then, I want to finish writing my secret novel that I’ve only told one person about.  And I want to do one fun thing everyday of the summer, some more so than others but I don’t want boring days.  I could make a cake, go out, have a sleepover, just something.  Also, this summer, I want to read more.  I want to read The Great Gatsby and all the other books you need to read in English III.  I also want to find a SLR camera to borrow so I can at least take some pictures this summer.  I want to go for morning/evening runs in order to get fitter and lengthen my endurance, kind of like preparation for next year sports.  I want to volunteer somewhere fun to help out with my NHS stuff and I want to go on a road trip somewhere.  Those are a few goals, but I’m very sure that I will end up making a long list, I may post it, but I may decide to spare you, you never know ;).  Well, I had fun at the cottage yesterday, only for one day, but whatever.  Alright, I shall go do some chores and errands etc.
