baaah, no day in my life posting yet. i guess i'm far too lazy to even do that.

in other news, i'm at northern's orientation. i feel weird, though, because i was so nervous to come here without visiting and such. but, there was nothing to worry about -- i love it here! it's beautiful and cold and fantastic. so, thank buddha for that.



no pictures now; gotta go do more orientation thingzz.




kilroy was here. 

 it is far too humid to sleep. even though i've been up for an insanely long amount of time. heh, oh welll.


mmmm, recent news: i graduated (thank god) and am currently enjoying sleeping in far too much. however, with graduation also came the leaving of gloria, who was probably the coolest foreign exchange student ever, besides constantine. her good-bye party was today, and i'm really going to miss her. seriously, what a badass.


mmm, hopefully, i'm doing a day in my life tomorrow (err... today?), so whoo? it should be interesting. i'm hanging out with people i haven't hung out with in a while, so, coool.



oh! i got a new digital camera for graduation. it's a canon (duuh) powershot and it's beautiful.

grad bash picture:

i love christine, :D!


hopefully, now that i'm basically not busy at all, i'll actually start posting real entries.

 herrro!


life has been excellent, and after the ap today/tomorrow, it'll be even better. the michigan youth arts festival was amazing for several reasons. one of them is:


:), more on that later.

 to say that life has been easy lately would be a lie.


it has certainly been so much more than that and i fear that because of the way i've been handling things here, that i won't do well in college when i'm ten hours away with almost no one. the people i am closest to right now are going to be so far away that i wonder if they will forget me. in a way, i feel like achilles from the iliad. except, instead of wanting everyone to remember my name and be a douchebag and such, i just want the people close to me to remember all these monumental times we had together, because, i'm pretty sure i won't forget. and, it's not to say then on christmas break i won't come home... but what if i'm not up to an expectation?



bah. these thought, and more, are the ones that have been running through my mom. others would include: friday night, prom, michigan youth arts festival, graduating, and more. it kinda starts to stress me out. and, most likely, everyone else around me.


on a happier note: got some awesome new clothes, including this sweatshirt.

you can't really see it, but, it's that plain mustard colour the entire way. and, it's super comfy, which is why i love it. plus, i love that it's yellow and i'm asian yellow and we're not suppose to be together. kinda like a certain someone, which is why it's sorta been dubbed the leprechaun sweatshirt, for obvious reasons. i also got a blue shirt, which i am wearing right now. hmmm, i won the creative writing department award, which was exciting. the literary magazine is finally finished, thankfully, and we made deadline.


other than that, i've been up to nothing.

so, i lied a little when i said my lafe wasn't hectic anymore. but, it's hopefully starting to even out. had some interesting nights for the past few ones. 



this is what my life has been:

this is possibly one of the hardest tosses in the show: throw a parallel and catch it behind the back.

some part during the opener. not sure when though. i loved that hair.

:), my favorite piece of equipment ever.

onto individuals:

this trick was so badass because i bounced the rifle off the floor and then caught it. 

i was slightly sassy.



baaah! i promise for a REAL update soon.

 eee! sorry i haven't been updating lately! my life has been really really hectic right now. however, the most of it is over. kinda. last week wednesday, i found out i won this state wide poetry contest thing. :), it was amazing, and i was so happy. on saturday, i won the bronze medal in both rifle and saber individuals and it was awesome, even though it was all drama filled and such. and we place first in winterguard. that was pretty happy.



i got this pink sweatshirt last week. it's amazing and such.


sorry this has been so short! i'm going to update, soon, with a super long entry and an adiml post sooon. :).

 tonight was a good night.


aubrey and i decided that we were going to rent and watch blow, the johnny depp movie, because she hadn't seen it. so, around seven thirty, i drove over to her house and played with pippin, her cute kitty, while we waited for her sister hannah to get ready. then, we left, dropped hannah off at her friend's, and went to two different video stores to find blow. eventually, we did, and then rushed to aubrey's to put it in.


this was aubrey the entire time:

she's being all intense. towards the end of the movie, it got really sad and i got teary eyed and such. i was glad we watched it; i had forgotten how amazing it was. 


i played with pippin when it was done; that cat is so cute! during the oscars, we horse played. i want a kitty again! :(.

heh, he may look innocent, but that kid can be the devil! beware!


anyway, came home, and watched more of the oscars. i cried a little inside when johnny depp didn't get best actor, because he should have gotten it earlier, but oh well. i cheered a lot for diablo cody and juno! because that movie is fantastic and such.




i'm so super tired. and i love that couch. i sleep on it; a lot.

 i haven't updated in a while; i feel slightly lame.


lately, i've been missing my ex-boyfriend. it's lame, i know, because it's nearly been a year since we broke up, but, i've recently realized that i'm still in love with him. now, realizing this does make it easier to deal with it, but i still get little pangs of wanting him back. he's still a great guy; but definitally was a huge douche bag while we were together. actually, towards me, he still is. however, i'm still in love with him. i was looking through my old pictures today and i saw this:

and it made me so sad. because that night was just so excellent and we were being silly and such. it's lame to think that being sixteen, at the time, gave me the ability to understand such a complex emotion like this. it's lame to think that i still am, or know, or whatever. but, i do know for sure, for absolute sure, i miss this. and him.


i've also decided to either get my madonna or vertical labret pierced. i think either piercing looks so beautiful. but, i have to wait until i'm at college so, it gives me time to think.

today started out so nicely; with beautiful beautiful sun and everything. i didn't go to school today because i was feeling ill. i mean, it was still cold outside, but, it was still pretty. i even went outside to take a few pictures. most of them turned out pretty nicely because they had the sun and such.

 
i took a lot more but, these were my favorites.


i went to the doctor's today; i forgot how much i hate it. me and my mother were fighting at the time, so, that didn't help anything either. seriously, though, i really hate the doctor's office. i mean, i was there a grand total of twenty-ish minutes but, the lady doctor (who wasn't my normal) diagnosed me with a 'viral infection'. i already knew that, though. i was hoping she could tell me a little more than that. but, whatever. i was ordered not to go outside but, i did anyway.


it was happy!cold! love. even though you can tell i'm sick from the redness around my eyes. i went inside after about thirty minutes though; it was so cold. i warmed up in my 'old' room, wrote a little, and scored some literary magazine submissions. this year, they don't seem as well written as they had previous years, but, it's okay. 


sitting in my room,  i realized a lot of things. i'm started to be happy again, i realize that though i'm still in love with ben, it's getting better. i mean, of course it won't go away completely, but, it's starting to get to the point where i'm not shakey and anxious whenever i see him. i know it's been almost a year since we broke up, so it's lame. however, i'm glad it's getting a lot better. i still miss that kid though; we don't really even talk anymore. also, i got into my college of choice. i mean, northern's not that hard to get into but, it's still nice to know you're wanted somewhere. also, my writer's block has ending. that takes a load off my mind; really, it does. it was getting so frusterating knowing i had something to say but not being able to say it.

on a lighter note: my room was really strippy today from the light.

:), see? i loved it, because i love stripes. i thought it was a sign that everything's getting better.

hello all. 

 
my name is liz, if you hadn't already guessed that from my user name. yes, that was intentional; no trickery here. 


i suppose i feel obligated to say something about myself. i'm, at this current moment, seventeen. i'm a senior and i will be graduating thankfully. i'm going to attend northern michigan university come this fall and i couldn't be more excited. i love to write but, i suppose that i don't consider myself a writer for many reasons. but, it's what i love to do. also, i play the viola in the my high school's orchestra and baritone in the band. i sang alto last year.

i like doing this too:

it's called dancing. i'm not good at but it's fun as hell.


i've recently decided that ihave far too many sweaters. however, i refuse to get rid of a lot of them. :).
