Time Keeps on Ticking Away, Always Running Away.

MISSING:

TIME

Have you seen my time? He sometimes responds to the name Franklin. He really precious to me, please contact if you've seen him.

There is a reward for anyone who can return time to me.

Ahh, how desperately I could use time. The day really isn't long enough to accomplish everything I need to get done. Unfortunately I don't think the length of days are going to be changed any time soon. It would also be nice if weekends were longer. Plenty of people would really enjoy shorter school and work weeks, productivity would definitely increase. Really, if there is someone who holds the power to change the days constituted as the "weekend" then he/she should consider the benefits of a longer weekend. Unfortunately, I really don't see this happening in the near future either, which is such a shame. 

Okay, so what is in the near future? Well the ACT, junior prom, spring break, and a Lily Allen concert are all on the horizon and three out of those four are something to look forward to. 

Honestly the ACT, who cares about you? I certainly don't. Standardized tests are just not my cup of tea, it also might be a problem that I don't like tea. I'm pretty psyched for junior prom actually. I think I have a great dress although I have questioned it a couple times, but I bought it on sale, so I can't return it now. Dinner's is going to be great though, I'm pretty sure I'm going to Artopolis in Greek town, and it is delicious! Oddly enough, I'm really looking forward to this dance because I haven't had to deal with guys. Don't get me wrong, it would be nice to be asked to prom, especially in a really adorable way, but honestly I'm just so looking forward to having fun with my friends. I asked a guy to the homecoming and turnabout, and that was monumentally huge for me- the jury's still out as to whether I was temporarily insane at the time. Seriously though, it was completely uncharacteristic of me, I'm definitely a girl who wants the guy to make the first move and I'm typically shy around guys- mostly just the ones I like- isn't that lucky? But this year I decided to go for it, why not? What's the worst that could happen? He could say no... twice. The thing is I don't really regret asking, at least I tried. It was hard to work up the courage to put myself out there, but I think I've learned more about myself. But back to prom, there's been no anxiety leading up to it, which has been so great! 

And then a few days after prom, spring break starts! I don't have spring break plans, but that's perfect because then I can just sleep in and be lazy- finally something I'm good at! Also Lily Allen concert during spring break. I don't really listen to her but I'm super excited! I've heard some of her stuff and I like it, and the company will be good, so it should be fun. Well I think that's about as far into the far into the future as I can bear to look, so I think this post will end here. 

But a quick note- I've come to the conclusion that Lily Allen has a lovely style. She looks so cute in the one bottom photo, I adore her dress! I put in the other one because the guy in the photo is on the British show called Gavin and Stacey that I absolutely love. British humor is really hilarious and their accents are the best. But anyways the guy's name is James Corden and he was rumored to be dating Lily Allen at one point, but I don't think they ever confirmed anything.

Also I think she looks so much better as a brunette. 

Cheers!

The Rookie.

I'm new at this whole blogging scene, I'm not sure what to write about. I've always liked writing, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with this blog. When I was younger I would start writing these fictional stories but I would never finish them, I think the farthest I got was around eight pages- that story had to do something with a girl and horses, I think. Horses? That's so random, why did I choose to write about horses? I know nothing about horses. A horse once stepped on my foot at Girl Scout camp and it hurt a lot. Since then I've tried to keep my distance. Although I think when I started writing that story it was pre-horse incident, but in general back then I always tried to write about things I completely did not know about or didn't understand.

Most of my stories were pretty bad really, I think they lacked substance of any kind. I tried opening one of them on my computer a month ago and started reading it, I could barely make it through- and this one was only about a page and a half. Honestly it was probably one of my worst ones, it was called "Love's Little Hiccups". Lame! I know, trust me I know, but I was young and my world revolved around American Girl dolls, Disney Channel, Harry Potter, and whatever crush I had that year. 

I was so naive. I'm still a little naive, but now I call it being optimistic. I think I should keep working on that story of mine, "Love Little Hiccups", it could turn out decent if I gave it a chance. But it definitely needs a new title. Pronto. 

Well, I guess I found something to write about for this post, but I'm still pretty clueless. Don't know what I'll write about next, or when I'll write. Life is so hectic, I can't wait until summer or at least spring break, or junior prom. Whichever comes first. 

Speaking of prom, I found the two cutest dresses to wear and then I couldn't decide so I got them both. I'm horrible at making up my mind and I just couldn't choose between them and I tried to convince myself that I would wear the one I don't wear to prom at other parties or events so I ended up going home with two dresses. Aggh. The thing is as I walked away after getting the first dress and was on toward the other store, I had the bag in my hand and it just hit me, I felt like a complete failure at not being able to decide. Indecision is nothing new to me, I experience it with practically every huge choice (and not so huge) that I have to make, but I never walked away feeling like a failure. It's just so hard, part of the anxiety I get before making a decision is that I'm going to make the wrong one. What happens then? 

But a side note to the dress story, once I got home and looked at both the dresses again I realized that I absolutely adored them both and was really glad that I got them both.

Well I think that's all for now.

Cheers!
