Adventures of a Leprechaun

A few years back, I stayed up pretty late talking to one of my friends from middle school on AIM. I don't remember how or why, but somehow we got onto the subject of making up stories and stuff. So, here is my creation. I guess I copied it down on a piece of paper after it was written, I'm not for sure. But I found the copy yesterday while cleaning my room. Here it is... remember that it was really early in the morning, so it's a lot of stuff that you say, and none of it makes sense. Anyways, here it is....

Adventures of a Leprechaun

                Once there was this little leprechaun who was frolicking around looking for some clovers to eat. He then came to a huge field of clovers. Instead of eating all the clovers though, he had a sudden urge to roll through all of them. So, he lay down on his back and rolled down and down and down and then around, up sideways, and backwards all through the field of clovers. When he got up, he saw that his beautiful white clothes had turned a nasty looking green. Now, leprechauns are supposed to neat and tidy and so he went home to change into his nice pair of leprechaun clothes. After he had done that, he decided that he needed to take a wash because he smelled like that nasty smooshed up clover smell. After he had washed, he went back to the field to eat. But all the clovers were rolled and smooshed on the ground; all except for one. So he hopped over to that last clover and picked it up. It was a four leaf clover! And since we all know that four leaf clovers have magical powers when touched, it turned into a whole clover pie! So the leprechaun sat on the ground and ate his whole entire leprechaun pie. Then he frolicked back through the fields to his home. The End.

Valentine's Day. Grrrrr....

I HATE Valentine's Day. I honestly don't know why it's even considered a holiday. Devoting a day to.. love? Ughh gag me with a spoon. I honestly think that it's just an odd reason created for people to go out and spend money and recieve presents. It's not that I don't believe in love or anything, currently right now I'm in love. Or at least I think I am. What do I know? I'm only a 17 year old who has no life experience and knows absolutley nothing about the world. Grrr. That's another thing. Sure, I know that there's a lot that I haven't experienced yet and a ton that I don't know about, but I sure as heck know a lot more about life and what can happen than a lot of other 17 year olds know. And I'm not just saying that. I've so far had debates with people older than me who think that they know more about life than me about... 6 times. And I've won each and every debate against those 6 people. 'Nuff said. Anyways, back to Valentine's Day. My thought on it is that why limit celebrating love on just one day? If you are with somebody that you're in love with, you never take anything for granted. You take everything in, and store it and keep it and let it fill you. You say I love you at least once a day because you never know when your last moment with them will be, and you don't want the day to pass with regret for not saying it. And fighting... you should never actually be mad at the other person. Aggrivated is sometimes fine, but you always work through it. And you work through it together. You should never be mad at the other person, you should just be mad at the situation. Emotion is such an important part to. You have to be able to show it, otherwise, how would you grow closer with another person? Honesty and unity and truthfullness are also so extremly important. You don't always have to aggree with one another, but be unified; never leave the other person behind and always support them. It's always easier said than done. But love should be celebrated every day of every week of every month of every year. It shouldn't be limited to just one day. Because if you only show your love one day out of the year... how is it really considered love? It would become just a chore or obligation. Anyways.. happy post-valentine's day.

Why are my hands shaking?

Ah.. theres no better sound than when you pop open a can of a cold energy drink. You can hear the fizz and know that in about 2 seconds, your body will be pulsing with energy. Just thinking about it is making my leg shake up and down anxiously. One small problem with me though; They don't work. Coffee, monster, rockstar, amp, red bull... they don't kick in until about 3 hours later. And by then, there's no reason for me needing extra energy because I've already crossed over into deleriousness. Ah ha! Another word I've made up and added to my own personal dictionary. Anyways, yeah. Energy drinks don't work on me. But that still doesn't stop me from buying them. I have a problem with money. I seem to have an extreeeemly hard time saving it. Sure, I put a lot of it into the bank, but I spend a lot too. Probably more than I should. My excuse for it though is that in these bad economic times, I need to do my part in helping stimulate the financial.. issues. Haha, well at least that's what I tell my mum.

a dog's life..

If humans could converse with animals, what would you say to it? Take dogs for example. It seems like they can already understand some of the noises us humans make like saying sit, stay, lay down, roll over, fetch, etc.. But what if they could talk back? On one recent movie called UP, there is an alien dog that has a collar on him that makes him speak english so that we can understand him. I think that the script writers did a very good job on creating phrases that they could imagiene a dog saying. They just imagiened what an ADHD person would act like and say, and applied it to the dog character. I would know because I have ADHD and find myself saying many of the same things as the dog. This is really sad considering that one of the main phrases the dog says is "Oh!! squirrel!!" with his eyes wide open and tail blurring because its wagging so fast. And then he bounds away really fast in search of this amazing little animal. I've done the exact same thing. And not only with squirrels, but birds, bunnies, dogs.. anything shiny.. I have a serious problem with concentrating. Eh... all well. It's what makes life fun and interesting.

bad ideas...

10 extremly bad ideas (feel free to add your own)

1. Trying to snowboard on one of the saucer sleds
2. Experimenting while cooking by adding in random things just based on smell
3. Trying to wear a bracelet as a necklace
4. Trying to drink water out of a cup backwards
5. Trying to play Starcraft and being so occupied with it, trying to drink out of your cup using no hands so you pick it up to drink and spill it all over yourself
6. After spilling your drink on you, flailing your arms around and knocking the drink over again and this time on your keyboard
7. Trying to be inconspicuous while listening to music in class, but becoming totally obvious because your leg is shaking up and down and your dancing and singing along in your seat
8. Going someplace out of state or country and trying to take on that nations accent
9. Belting out songs while taking a shower and realizing that there are other people in your house besides your family
10. Trying to run through the rain trying not to get wet. Don't try this, you'll end up slipping and falling into a puddle and will get wet that way

mustache cups

In music appreciation, we're watching a musical. With Clint Eastwood in it? Yeah, I know. Weird to imagiene Clint Eastwood in a musical. Anyways, one of the characters in it had one of those HUGE fluffy mustache things like a handlebar mustache or whatever it's called. Like the mustache that Yo Sammidy Sam has. The type where when someboy's sleeping, it flutters when you breathe in or out and snore. My teacher said that he wanted to grow a mustache like that and I said, Go for it! Turns out, he actually tried to grow one before, but apparently his lip isn't big enough? Anyways, a little bit later he said here's some useless knowledge for you, but they actually made mustache cups back in that time period. I was entranced. Later we looked them up online and there are actual real mustache cups. It's just like a regular mug, but theres this slab of porcelin up a little bit higher to gurad your mustache from getting any tea or coffee or anything else on it. It's quite amazing...

go sulk and drink hot chocolate

Last week, we didn't have school on Friday because we had a teacher development day, and so the kids had the day off. That was handy because I left for Gatlinburg that day. It's about a 6 or 7 hour drive there, so we didn't get to the hotel until pretty late Friday nite or realllly early Saturday morning, however you want to look at it. We got to do sight seeing and just random things all day Saturday and it was awesome. I got to do some firsts such as swimming in a cami and sweatpants, went to a sauna, and went into a resteraunt where their symbol is a spider (I'm scared to death of spiders by the way and will not do anything involved with them at all). Needless to say, after all the exploring and other things, I was completly worn out by at the earliest 11 p.m., it was crazyily unlike me. And on Sunday morning, we had to wake up at like 5 in the morning so we could have all of our stuff packed and ready, and get all the paper work filled out, ride the tram to the top of the mountain, get our gear and start skiing all before 10. We barely made it. It was only me and 2 other people skiing and one of them was a snowboarder and had never skied before, so we all took one of the lessons. After the class, we went down one of the easiest passes just to get some practice in. We went down it twice and nobody fell down, so we did a harder pass. This one went down the main passage. Now, in Gatlinburg, they have natural mountains and snow, so it was actual mountain skiing, not just a hill or anything, like a legit mountain. So yeah, the main passage is pretty steep and kind of hilly. Now, when I ski, i go for speed and don't know how to slow down. I'll turn and do s-curves so i don't hit people, but besides that, I fly. About halfway down the mountain, there was a huge group of people, obviously beginers which isn't a bad thing, but that means that most can't control where they're going and anything. So, I tried to make a wide curve around them to not hit any, and of course, one girl thought it would be a great idea to turn to her right at that certain moment. I don't know if she saw me, but I'm sure as heck sure that she felt me. I knocked her skis off, my skis off.. probably half way killed her and myself because we both got banged up pretty good. I was asking like a million times if she was ok acting concerned, and in a very ticked off mood and out of anger, she just laid on the ground and just glared at me and was like oh yeah.. I'm perfectly fine. An eye roll would have fit in perfectly with it. It took everything that I had to not tell her, well if she was looking where she was even going and to stay on the bunny slopes where she belonged, we wouldn't even be in this little situation. Next time, look where your going. Not everybody can move far enough away from people like you to make sure nobody gets hurt. Now go dry it up and go sulk inside while drinking hot chocolate and realize that you should think before you put skis on your feet and pointy poles in your hand next time while around people. Needless to say, I was ticked off too. It was probably a good thing that I kept my mouth shut...

quotes

http://www.mugglespace.com/ I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan, and one day stumbled across this blog/website thing and absolute love it. I love it because of all of it's random Harry Potter facts and discussions, and also because of all the other things that you learn from it. From this website, I found out that the creator of http://www.mugglespace.com/ is a huge fan of a guy named Terrance Zdunich. Since she talks about him all the time, I decided to see if he had a website and sure enough, its http://www.terrancezdunich.com/. I can totally understand why she is such a huge fan of him. Never in my life have i ever heard of a person with such spirit and creativity and just love for life. The way that he thinks is always outside of the box and very creative and it's always so great to just see how somebody's mind like that functions. What's so great about him is that he was also in one of my favorite movies, REPO! The Genetic Opera in which he plays the graverobber. But, that's another story. The point is, that http://www.mugglespace.com/ is great and another reason why I love it is because she has a section at the bottom of her favorite quotes. After reading through them, I think that a lot of them are becoming my favorite quotes too. Here's my favorites from the website...

Henry: Did you start your History paper yet?
Vlad: Umm...Does writing my name at the top of the page count?
Henry: I don't think so.
Vlad: Doesn't matter, I didn't do that anyway.

Bones: Is it a spaceship?
Booth: Well, it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, so....yes.
Bones: But then it would be a duck....
