News Report

I must admit I'm becoming pretty consistent with this blogging thing. Well...maybe because it distracts me from homework. ^_^;;

So I was watching CNN when I arrived home from school today and guess what some of the top stories were. The big debate between Obama and Clinton, aaand Britney Spears is in a hospital.

I'm guessing the hospital is supposed to be a step up from rehab? She reportedly went willingly, accepting the fact that she needs help. She was escorted to the hospital by a whole motorcade, stretching as long as a football field...yeah, I know right? This, of course, comes after she loses custody of her kids, sanity, and dignity.

I'm being mean actually. I really do hope she gets whatever help she needs. I was never a fan of her music, but I would rather have the old pop music than whatever's going on. Hope Jamie Lynn is holding up good. I heard from WHATTHEBUCK that she's giving the kid to her mother. "Because she did so well with the other two..." --Michael Buckly...or something along those lines.

In political news that could affect our country for at least the next for years, Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama are getting ready to face off in their first one-on-one debate. They are obviously the two front-runners for the Democratic Party. I know some issues include the economy and Iraq, but truthfully I haven't been following this as much I should be. I'm not voting or anything this year. (I'm a bit under the age limit.) Still...

From the Republican side of the presidential competition, Rudy Giuliani has dropped out of the race and Arnold Schwarzenegger, our favorite actor-turned-politician, has announced his endorsement for John McCain. Mike Huckabee doesn't believe that Giuliani's forfeit in the race will affect his standings. He says it would matter more if it was someone like McCain or Mitt Romney. However it doesn't seem like either of them are leaving any time soon.

Oh, I just remembered healthcare was an important issue. We were apparently discussing this in history today...when we were supposting to be taking notes on the Great Depression...

So there's your daily fill of news...I'm sort of tired to put up a new chapter of my story, but we'll see. Like Mike Huckabee, I believe in miracles...but not ones involving my rivals dropping out of a race...which could be helpful in some cases I guess.

A Big Thank You/School

Okay, so through some advertisement and [not so] much patience, I actually have readers. I'd really like to thank 'brat' and 'rose desrochers' for commenting and giving me tips. It helps a lot especially for newbies ("n00bs"?) like me. =)

Right now I'm supposed to be doing homework, but I'm taking just a small break.

I said that an hour ago...just kidding!

Anyway, a useful tip in high school. If you're gonna take any honors classes, or especially if you take AP (or IB for some), be aware of the massive amounts of work you will probably receive. This will be even more difficult if you play a sport or if you have any other commitments. Plus you betta study for the tests. I learned that the hard way...

I don't really have anything important to talk about right now. Well I do, but I'm saving that stuff. I'll see if I can add anything to my story.

Once again, thanks brat and rose! Your help means a lot =)
...I'm just repeating myself, aren't I?

Novel

As stated in an earlier post, I like to write...and to express my creativity or whatever, I created another blog with a story. The address is http://milana-theoryofrelativity.blogspot.com/. It's called Relativity and it's about this girl named Milana and her life in high school. There's more to the plot but I suck at summaries so just read it and send some feedback.

Still don't know if anyone's reading this but whatever, patience is a virtue...right?

Maybe I should get more involved...hmm...

Anonygirl1 has a video of her singing "Broken", some original song by her. It's a really good song actually. Check it out...and no I'm not her promoting myself...or herself...whatever.

Headache...diappointed much?

Hmm, so no one is checking out my last post. Well if I had known that, I wouldn't have written so damn much!

Oh well. I don't think more emotion is going to help me.

At the moment I have a really bad headache. I accidentally cut of a lock of hair while trying to detach my hairbrush which was stuck in my hair this afternoon. I comb it over to make it as unnoticable as I can. Though I'm sure the hairdressers will laugh at me next time I visit a salon.

School sucks...so does homework. I can't concentrate much so I'm wasting time on here and youtube...check out anonygirl1's videos...she's cool =]

Ugh, I feel gross. Maybe I'll tell you guys when I know you're listening.

...No one voted in the poll either...

Food/Introduction

Okay, well I guess while introducing myself to the world, I would talk about an actual subject, just so there's more than something saying, "Hi..."

Just a few things

-My name's Lalaine (but people call me Lala)
-I'm a sophomore in high school
-I rep da east coast yooo
-I suck at being gangsta
-I like to write, draw, and play music
-I may write about a lot of things here

----

Okay, so the first thing I want to talk about here is...FOOD. Why? Mainly because I'm hungry right now, but it's something everyone could relate to...in some way.

Food is an essence of life. We eat it for energy, health, and just because it tastes good and fills our tummies. But sometimes the simple matter of eating can seem really complicated...or even annoying at times.

What do I mean?

Have you ever gone out to dinner with a few friends? Or maybe you've gone over someone else's house to have a meal. Do you ever not know what you're eating...or don't know what to eat? This is the complicated part. Something could look really good...or really disgusting. Or you thought you ordered something really good...and you don't even know what you're about to stuff in your mouth. This is probably worse for people like me, who have food allergies and don't want to risk dying in public or something.

If that doesn't apply to you, try this scenario. You're in your room doing homework, or so you say while you're really on facebook. All of a sudden you feel your stomach rumble. Craving a satisfying snack you head down to your kitchen which is chock full of yummy treats, right?

No, wrong.

You open cabinet doors to find dishes and bowls and such. Doubting those are edible you turn to the never-disappointing fridge.

Yeah, okay.

You open the door and search for anything good to eat. Let's see...you're running low on milk again. There's the leftover's from that "casserole" of last nite. Some veggies that probably need to be cooked. Eggs...not the best time for scrambled, thank you though. Butter...not sure if that's safe to eat by itself. Orange juice...nah, you're looking for that solid stuff. There are also some other leftoevers, but at this point they're unidentifyable.

I think I just created a word....

Oh and this isn't the last time you'll be down. Somehow you think some more food has magically appeared in the last ten minutes you were down stairs, or maybe you overlooked something. Either way you come back to the same disappointment.

Now there are other situations involving food. You burned your family dinner. You've been eating Ramen Noodles for the past ten days. You had some really good Indian food that made you sick. You hate your school food. You wonder why the girl you took to dinner last night ate like she was on an anerexic diet. Maybe you're on an unsuccessful diet. You can't go anywhere without weightwatchers creeping into your mind. Maybe you get way to drunk at parties. Liquids count as food.

No matter how this applies to you, know that eating is mainly an enjoyable experience. Many cultures center social settings around food and drink. So...enjoy! Grab a plate of your favorite dish and dig in. =)

Hmm...that last part may have been a bit corny. At least I'm out there now. I hope you enjoy reading this and maybe you can relate to me. I think I'm gonna go downstairs myself and get me a bite of something.
