Why?

Okay... we're stepping into treacherous territory here Cody. Katie, are you reading?

Why do I hate Nathan?

In fact, I do not hate the red-head who has chosen a path I would never tread. I simply dislike him, because he has on various occasions for honest to goodness no reason called me, and I quote, "Bitch," and "Bitch who's ignoring me," and "Bitchy". Pardon the language. I have done nothing but try to accept his relationship to our circle, but I have found that when he badly treats my friends, spreads lies to my friends, and remains ignorant and "bitchy" himself, I cannot overlook these facts.

Katie, I'm sorry that you have chosen to be angry at me about my standpoint, but I cannot tell you that I am the only one. Kheyla, and several of your close friends who I have overheard in particular of my classes (it's not my place to name them) feel that you are becoming distant and unlike yourself in his presence. Ultimately, the relationship you hold with said red-head who enjoys making fun of other red-heads and Catholic people (may I remind you that I am one, and so are, if not regularly, Alicia and Sara), is up to you. It has been made very clear to myself that you no longer hold me in the highest regards of friendship, and for that I am sorry. I wish you could once again take interest in more people than Nathan, and the amazing events that take place in your friends lives. Have you heard about my book success? I doubt it, for you may attend my school, but your cares and interests are far from my own.

I hope these statements have made clear to you the reasons for my dislike of Nathan. I have made an effort not to become mad in the process, and think solely about my editing as well as the current episode of Gilmore Girls that now plays in the background despite the sad fact that it takes place during the seventh and final season.

News, News, News...

Okay, so who's confused?

Water Wings?

And...

Max?

To be honest, I'm PRAYING that Fang is correct. Because the Max cover is so awesome, and it doesn't look anywhere near lame. And that's Kinda how Water Wings sounds, no offense. Strong, fiery female power is absolutely what Max appears to be about! I mean, which title sounds better for Max and Fang's relationship, especially the way he keeps talking about it on their new blog? I mean, his relationship status says: It's Complicated. Intrigue! Unfortunately we must wait until March...

New U2 album comes out in February!

Goatstock at my school is next week Thursday before our PA Day, parent/teacher interviews are tomorrow afternoon so I get out of school at lunch, and Friday is a new Miscellaneous at lunchtime!

Update me on your news so I can add it to the list!

Going to go write more of the climax of Into The Light... so close to being done...
Alicia, please read. You're about ten chapters behind Cody and Sara. I love ya, but please.

Choreographic Workshop, Twilight, and Sara's Noticed Lack of Blogs

I attempt to blog when I can, but because no one else blog's much, I have to wait before the page just becomes a blog of posts by me. I concur though. Blog please, because sometimes I start to wonder if you guys are still alive.

So I had my school's big Choreographic Workshop on Friday. You may have already seen some pictures on Facebook, but I thought you all should know that I'm going to buy a DVD of the performance, and show it at our next movie night! *Warning, performance includes monumental amounts of twitching, insanity, and The White Stripes.*



After our performance, we took our time getting the teasing out of our hair and the crazy makeup off of our faces. When my Mom, brother and our friends got out of the auditorium, we all met up and talked to my teacher Ms. Hogg about our performance. Then, Mom, Michael, Blaire, Kathryn, Thomas, Jessica, other Emma, and ME Emma took two different trips to the Queensway movie theatre. We stood in line for Twilight and I saved our seats when everyone else went to get food which included Yogen Fruz and Gummie Bears! We had to run to save those seats by the way, and they turned out pretty well.
Twilight was an okay movie. I liked all of the actors except for Kristen Stewart (Bella), Robert Pattinson (Edward) and possibly Taylor Lautner (Jacob). Basically everyone who we love in the book series sucked in the movie. It was really funny at times, and really corny at others. Like when Edward is staring at Bella in the chemistry lab. Just sucked at times, and the camera angles were awful, especially at the beginning. By the way, something I'm ABSOLUTELY DEPRESSED about is something VERY VERY FUNNY AND IMPORTANT that they LEFT OUT OF THE MOVIE!!!

Anyways, I had a writing, hockey and Starbucks day yesterday. Can you guys start reading my story again? The more you read, the more excited to write and finish the story I am. Please? Cody's been great, Sara's been trying, Sophie's given up, and I'm not sure what keeps happening with Alicia. I just want to know that you guys still like my story.

We have to get together to see Twilight in theatres, mock, laugh, and add our own dialogue!!!

Breakfast Television!

As you know, this morning Katie and I were on BT with our school and the stars + choreographer of High School Musical. Now, you know I don't love the movies much, but the people were really nice.
I woke up at 5:00, and laid drifting in and out of sleep until 5:30 when I had to get up. It's my Dad's birthday, so Mom had a banner put up for him and his presents out, and we shared coffee with him super early in the morning.
I got to school, and sat with some friends, freaking out that Kheyla wouldn't arrive on time. She did (thankfully).
We talked to Jennifer Valentine, I was on TV, I was asking a question when a girl interrupted me... It was an interesting morning. And now I shall watch Pushing Daisies, plan my 'club chic' clothes for So You Think You Can Dance tomorrow, and write write write write write.
If I had any hope left, I would tell everyone but my ever faithful Cody to read read read.

Tired Thursday

Finally it seems that my complaining on the blog has paid off! Thank you Alicia and Sara for promising that you will soon be buying Into The Night. I just need to know about Sophie and- Olivia? I'm not sure. But thank you anyhow.
As a status update on my first novel, Within Hewitt Manor, I earned $33.77 from our 11 purchased copies. As the recently sent out press release circulates, hopefully that will draw more attention to both Within Hewitt Manor and Into The Night.

Cody, I've invited Jeanette to the blog, and it is now up to her to respond. Just a clarification though; Jeanette is everyone on the blogs friend, and shares a childhood with us. The blog will only remain open to those who fit the criteria, even as we meet new friends in high school. But they're welcome to read if they'd like.

Today was exhausting. I had a lot of homework. Theory class is testing, but so far the work's been okay. I actually like Science right now which is surprising, Geography's alright too. I love English and my Drama Elective class best so far though. Even Dance class seems to be okay, though its straining physically and requires a ton of equipment and discipline.
Karate starts tomorrow, so I guess Alicia and Sara decided that they won't be coming. If you want, you can still sign up for next week, but do it fast. Victoria and I are going to get ahead of you!

I'll leave you with a limerick I wrote under the idea of a Poetry Anthology for English Class. Tell me what you think.

There once was a girl from Nantucket,
Who carried a green-filled paint bucket.
She tripped on a stone, the bucket was thrown-
And her green little brother screamed f**k it!

:)

Indeed it was Olivia. Indeed it was. But necessary all the same.

So, yes. Summer is rapidly coming to a close. The times without studying, business, and times with pool parties, friendly gatherings, lazy crazy days, and fish are coming to a close. Well, most of those times anyways. :) I don't want tomorrow to come yet. I'm not ready. I have to practice my performance piece, clean my room, do a load of laundry, and put together my school supplies still. I've been procrastinating. Sorry, I'm distracted.

That dinner sounds awesome Olivia. I'm so up for it. But, beware. If I'm to cook anything, you'll probably all die. Chopping, dicing, mixing and especially mashing are more my forte. And they're fun!

Woah. My brother just apologized to me.
