Every Life is Precious

My Dear Stalkers,

Today is Sunday September 11th.... Exactly 10 years from the horrible terrorist attack on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon. I don't remember that day at all, and if I did I would share it with you. I was only in 2nd grade so I'm sure It didn't mean a whole lot to me back then. But reflecting back and watching all of those videos I have realized that every life is precious. 2,000 people died for no reason at all.
As the towers were burning there were people jumping off onto the street, at first it was just the ones who were disoriented or blinded that didn't know that they are falling 88 stories. Then, they started jumping. The story that broke my heart was one of a couple, they jumped off the 88th story in each others arms and died hitting the ground. I can't even imagine that. Not only could I not imagine living through it I can't imagine running in saving people. The real heros that day were all of the fire fighters and police officers that rushed into that building regardless of what the heck just had happened.
All the things that the people saw, all the lives lost... Every one of those people are amazing and brave. Every one of those people deserved to live but didn't. God has a plan for all of those people. And thats all I have to say. I love you all. God has a plan for all of you.

Learning is the Your birth is a mistake you'll spend your whole life trying to correct.

My Dear Stalkers,

As you all know, my junior year is now officially over! And I would like to share some wise words of wisdom about my year...

1) Each year will never turn out as expected.

This year I had a lot of expectations. I expected things to go a certain way socially and academically. I expected to have the same friends as last year, and get the same so-so grades. Well, my best friendship has ended on a really bad note... Honestly... I have no idea why.. Maybe the answer is sitting right in front of me but I am too crazy to see it. Oh well... I guess that will never be the same. BUT! I, in turn, made new friends! I have a boyfriend, and a new best friend. So this year it has had it's good and it's bad.

2) No one is forever.
This year I also thought a couple people would be lifetime friends... It was made apparent to me that no one is forever.. Last year my two best friends were Cody and Camille... Both I guess were kind of complicated. I have realized now that Camille will pick just about any other person over me... Which is okay, but I just don't want to deal with it anymore.

3) Always try new things even though they are scary.
One of the most important things in high school is to try new things. Talk to new people... Try something that you don't feel comfortable with... This year I tried debate.. I was so scared of getting up and talking in front of people about something that I wrote... It turned out FABULOUSLY! I highly recommend it.
4) Procrastination is NEVER as cool as assassination.
This year I procrastinated a lot of assignments and that, in turn, lowered my grade for a little while. But! Soon after a talking to from my dad I turned in my assignments and my grades got better. It is never cool in the long run.

Those my dears, are my leanings from this year. I defiantly have gotten a wider perspective on life and I can not wait for next year. Also, here are my grades...

Bachelor

My Dear Stalkers,

Emily or Chantal

That is the question that all of America is asking!!!
Okay.... maybe not all of America... But lots of girls and women...
Sad I know...
But I am one of them! And I admit that proudly!!

Who would I pick?
I would pick Ashley... yes.. he made a mistake by letting her go last week...
But what can we do?
So I am in the midst of watching it.... I will let you know the outcome as soon as possible...
I want him to pick Chantal... But he won't... and its sad!
and hes a jerk for making her believe he will...
Emily has such a boring personality.... He obviously only likes her for looks...
So... the dates are on...
He's picking out the ring....
He's standing at the alter...
First limo appears...
Its.... Chantal....
"Where do I begin?"
Hw is telling her all about how amazing she is...
WHAT A JERK!!
SLAP HIM!!!!!! SLAP HIM!!!
I hate him...
What an idiot...
He walks her out... as she is bawling....
He walks back to the alter...
Another limo comes....
Emily Walks out...
"Where do I begin?"
Blah Blah... Nice things about her...
Down on one knee....
"Emily please make me happier than I've ever been in my life... please marry me"
GAG!!!!!
Now "Marry me" plays... By train....

Well... That was disappointing.... Oh well.. that the Bachelor for ya....

Sweethearts (:

My Dear Stalkers,

Guess what? Sweethears was a couple of weeks ago(:
What is that?
It was a girls choice mafia themed dance!!
It
Was...
AWESOME...

So do you wanna know how I asked him?
Of course you do!

So, his first period class... was socratic...
I got 8 sticks of butter and put it on his desk.
On the break of that class after he left I put a GIANT bag of popcorn on his chair
and it said:
"I thought I'd butter you up before I POPPED the question... Will you go to Sweethearts with me?"
Cute right?
He answered back on Valentines day....
And how did he answer? (:

"I wanted to tell you in vegas but I didn't know how, so I thought I'd bring Vegas to you. I'd love to accompany you to sweethearts"
-Ethan


There was also a slot machine on my porch (: Cute huh?

Then! February 26th 2011

We went on our day date with.... 24 other people! Granted.. some didn't show up but we went leaser tagging!! Boys against girls! ...Boys won by 15... but we put up a good fight(:
Then
We went to brooklyn's house and played a bunch of games and had ice cream(: I tried to find a game that I could beat Ethan at... We played... Air hockey, pool, ping-pong, and foosball... All I lost at! What the heck?! I can't beat him at anything.. One day I will find something.. Anyway..

I dropped him off an hour before the dance and went home to get dressed.... I picked him up... Wow he looked handsome (:


(The picture is super small... humm... Ill try to find a bigger one.. but for now this will work.)

We got to the dance at 7:40ish.. and had dinner at the dance. He got my food for me (so sweet). And then the dance began! We were dancing all night! but then... He got stolen! Right in the middle of the slow song! What the heck?
So I went to go check it out... they took him outside... I followed them but Cam told me to go back... It was the MAFIA... after the song a girl went up and announced:
"All the girls who got their date stolen please come up on stage"
So me and about 10 other girls went up... They told us to sing "the wheels on the bus" and dance if we wanted our dates back.. so we did...
We were all waiting around and they finally brought the dates back with tape over their mouths and their hands tied. We each had to go up and do something embarrassing to get them back.. I went up and sand "I'm a little tea pot" with dancing.. and got him back (:
What a night! Probably the best dance I've been to(:
Thank you Ethan.(:

Vegas 4

My Dear Stalkers,

Wow.... 3rd post today!!

Today we went to an awesome buffet and had yummy food. But want to know what was weird? There was no spam!!! That is soooooooooo WRONG! But that is okay because they had good enough food to make up for it. Yummmm..... I have hot cheetos....
ANYWAY!
We wondered around today for a long while. We went to M&M world. (: awesome sauce!
We went on the New York New York roller coaster... (: I was so scared but Camille talked me into it somehow... And then it was lots of fun.

Then we attempted to go to karaoke.. But they didn't let us in because we weren't 21... Whatever....

Long day... I am exhausted... Good night!! I love you all.

Friends. What are they?

My Dear Stalkers,

I think that I should take a post to review what a friend actually is. Here we go(:
According to dictionary.com....

–noun
1.
a person attached to another by feelings of affection orpersonal regard.
2.
a person who gives assistance; patron; supporter:

So... Yeah... According to me....

A friend is someone that sticks by you no matter what. Someone that will be there for you... Someone that wont put you aside for anyone (of course there are exceptions for family and whatnot). Someone that is happy just being with you, they don't need anyone else there to be able to have fun...

Sigh...

I'm not sure.... Good friends are hard to come by... I've had people that seem like they are really good friends but then they... Honestly... I'm not too sure. Maybe it is me? Maybe it is them? Who really knows... But what I can gather from this is that those people aren't really my friends... I just have to keep my eyes peeled for some good ones.

I have a lot of reasons for writing this post... I wont disclose to all of you but I might to my journal.

So she poured out the liquid music of her voice to quench the thirst of his spirit. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Dear Stalkers,

So... Last blog thingey I ended with saying a name.

Ethan English.(:

Wondering about it? . . . . Of course you are(:

So Ethan and I have been going out since October 30th 2010.

Thats... 3ish months.

I like him a lot. He is super sweet and always making me feel like the prettiest girl in the room. I always have fun hanging out with him and we have a extremely long list of movies that I need to watch with him. The most important one so far is Remember the Titans. We have planed to watch it for a while but somehow we never do.. We always end up doing something else. Like... Play video games with Jaden or run errands with my family.
Speaking of family.
My mom and dad absolutely adore him.

My mom says "No, he's not Ally's boyfriend. He is mine." She always loves having him over and whenever he isn't she asks when he is going to come again.

My dad calls him Storm. Why? Im not sure... My dad is just dorky like that. Whenever I mention Ethan he says "I thought you liked that storm kid" ..... Gotta love my dad.

Jaden likes Ethan but says that it is against 'boy code' to be best friends with his sisters boyfriend. They can be really good friends but not best friends. Whatever that means... Dork.

Anyway! Whenever we decide to take a picture together I will put it up here. (: I'll describe now for you...
He is taller than me.. only by a bit(:
He is really thin and muscular.
He has (really cute) brown curly hair.
He has.. Greenish brownish eyes. (probably the prettiest I've seen)
He has a smile that makes hearts melt.

There is a lot more about him but you will see in the picture that hopefully gets put up here.(:

But that's all for now. Don't be too jealous (;
