Day 7

Alrighty, here's Day 7!!

Are there any people you miss so much it hurts???

Ummm......yes.  I can think of one.  ;)  My very, very good friend, one of my best friends, moved away recently.  She's supposed to be coming down to visit her friends and family in Florida soon, so hopefully we can get together.  I miss her a lot.  Today's challenge is dedicated to her......and for now I'll call her Hermionie.  ;)  She loves Harry Potter btw.  ;) 

That's the only one I can think of!  ;)


Our A/C is fixed!!!!  :)  YEAH!  The repair men came over today, and I can tell you, I was surprised at how hot I was last night.  I slept on the floor in our living room, under the big fan because I was so hot (and my bed was buried).  I read Percy Jackson fanfiction until I fell asleep though, so I was okay. 

I think I'm an insomniac.  I seriously have trouble sleeping.  Once I'm asleep I'm asleep, but getting to sleep is always problematic for me.  I don't have /much/ stress, and I don't have /much/ worry, so I don't think those things are keeping me up.  I just can't sleep!!!  I get all restless and bored and then I keep tossing and turning and it's impossible to get comfortable!  I don't know why this keeps happening.  I didn't go to bed until 3 am last night.  :P  I hope this is just a phase........

Our homeschool got a new schedule!  :)  Yay!!  We're going to be re-working our normal day, so that we can do the more exciting and important things first.  (at least that's how I see it...)  We're doing Math before break now, I think....which is probably smart of my mom because finishing math will now be essential for me to get to break (and the computer).  We spent a lot of time outside this morning, because it was a BEAUTIFUL day!!!  :D  It was SO nice out!!  I did story writing with my mom, (which is always fun) and (as always) we got very off topic.  :P  I love doing story writing with her though, mainly because that's the only time we really do one-on-one.  I get her all to myself and we sit and talk about stuff that I'm really excited and interested in.  Thanks mom!!!  ;)

I'm just about not sick anymore, but now my sister caught what I have.....officially.  :P  I still have a stuffy head though, and today at orchestra, the conductor called on me to play a passage with a few other musicians who sat in the back of the room.  I couldn't hear them because they were playing too soft and my head was so stuffed up my ears felt like they needed to be popped.  :P  Bright side of orchestra, afterwards, my dad took me to Starbucks for drinks and wi-fi.  ;)

I can't really think of anything else that I need to post on......except that I've gotten really bad about responding to comments and I'm sorry!!  >.< 

God Bless and May the Force Be With You,

Day 6

Day 6: Do I have an adopted sibling(s)??
No.  I wish I did though!!  I'm trying to convince my parents to adopt a little boy and name him Luke so I can train him as my Padawan and raise him up with Star Wars.  :P  ;)

Anyway, I'm pretty much better, but my sister is now sick.  :P  Sorry about that Nutmeg!!!  ;)

I'm watching TCW!!!!  Yay!!  I LOVE Clone Wars!  This episode was pretty gruesome though, and I cried when Echo died.  :'(  It was REALLY sad.  :(

I have a lot of writing/reading to do.  :P  I just borrowed like, 10 books from Chibi*Chick, and two of them are Rereads.  :)  I love rereading books.  I also borrowed Percy Jackson 4 and 5, Ranger's Apprentice 1, and The Hunger Games 1.  I'm not sure if I'll read Hunger Games or not....I don't think my mom wants me reading it.  I can't start reading anything until I'm caught up with my school work.  After being sick for four days, I have a lot of work to catch up on.  ;P  I also have a LOT of Viola practicing to catch up on.  ;P

I've been doing a lot of writing!!!  Some for school, and some for pleasure.  When I was sitting on the couch, sick and up late because I couldn't sleep, I wrote to pass the time.  ;)  I wrote a fanfic, which I'm still working on, and I continued writing a few other things I've been working on.  ;) 

Okay, I need to work on some posts, I've got one in the works on Johnny Tremain, Fireproof, Star Wars, Respect, and several Christianity/Church posts.  Tonight's sermon was really good.  ;)

I have a new favorite quote, that my church pastor said tonight in the sermon.  He was talking about how when you're living a God centered life, you are "in the zone" and able to have God's full blessing.  He said that God's blessings are so great that they will bring "The Super to your Natural"  I really like that.  ;)

Anyway, good night everyone!  I'll be posting again later.  ;)

P.S. The A/C in our house is broken, so I'm sweating as I write this.  :P  When you live in Florida, A/C is a necessity.  ;)

Fireproof, my hair, and Day 5

Awkward name title, I know, but I have to share.  ;)  Two important things happened today.  Okay, three things.  :)

1. I felt a lot better.  I still have a stuffed nose and a bad cough, but my throat feels a million times better.  :)
2. I watched Fireproof.  I also bawled my eyes out.  ;P
3. I went to the Hair Salon and got my hair cut.  ;)  It looks AMAZING!!!  :D 

First things first, I've got to post my review of Fireproof.  ;)
I watched it this morning because I didn't want to watch the American Girl movie my sister was watching.  ;P  I decided to put in Fireproof, because I heard it was good and a Christian movie.  I put in my earphones, and put the DVD into my computer, and halfway through I was sobbing.  ;P  That was the sweetest movie I've ever seen!!!!!!  It was so happy I cried my eyes out.  A half an hour later, I was still crying!!!!  The characters were believable, and realistic.  The story was.....beautiful!  It was so sweet.  I loved what Caleb's dad did for him, and how much Caleb changed once he accepted Jesus into his heart. I cried.  Like, alot.  Wonders that did for my sinuses....right?  :P 
Overall, it was an amazing movie, and one of the most beautifully romantic ones that I've ever seen.  I cried more watching Fireproof than I did watching Revenge of the Sith.  Seriously. 

Now onto my hair!!!!!  :D  OHMIGOSH, it's so pretty!!!!!  :D  I was excited to go get it cut, and I love it.  I can't stop touching it, it's so smooth.  :P  Here are some pictures.  ;)

That's the Before picture.  The After picture is more dramatic.  ;P  :)

That picture was taken further away....but yeah.  ;)  Isn't it pretty?!?  It's really short.  I feel like I have no hair now, because I'm used to it being so long and thick.  I got it layered and straightened.  :D  I LOVE IT!!!!!!  :D   ;)

So.  I'm feeling better today, but I was pretty miserable last night.  I couldn't sleep.  Like, at all.  I didn't sleep until 5 am.  Around 1 am I walked around the house over and over because I was really tired of just laying on the couch.  I said my prayers and then thought about very random thoughts for an hour.  Around 2 am, I was bored out of my mind and decided to get a drink of water.  Then my mom woke up and gave me some medicine to stop my coughing.  THEN, my mom let me watch TV for a while.  She went back to bed and I stayed up watching TV, still unable to sleep.  I watched this movie that I used to LOVE when I was little.  ;)  Does anyone else remember Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century?  I watched it last night and I forgot how much I liked it.  ;)  Disney Channel plays really old and random movies at 2 or 3 in the morning, (don't ask how I know that), and I decided to enjoy it.  ;)  Then I read a few fanfics on my iPod, and finally, FINALLY I fell asleep.  Around 5 am.  :P  So that was my night.  Fun huh?  ;)  Actually, I sorta enjoyed it and I didn't even feel all that tired this morning!  ;)

Well, enough of that.  Challenge Time!!!!!!  ;)
Day Five: Do You Pray Every Night and Meal?
Every meal, yes.  My family is now doing a new thing where we pray before and after the meal, to show gratitude.  ;)
I try to pray every night as well, because as the above passage states, I'm a night owl.  ;)  I think best at night or when I'm wet.....  :P  Never mind.....*whistles suspiciously*
Anywho, I do try and pray every night as well, but sometimes I get really tired and fall asleep before I'm done.  ;P

Okay, later I'll post my Johnny Tremain post, and my movie post (because I've watched a TON of movies these past few days).  ;)  Everyone have a great weekend!!!  :D

Love,
Jedi~Chick <3

I'm Sick and Bored/My Story Chapter 3

Blech.  I HATE being sick!!!!  :(  My throat is feeling a bit better, but I'm still incredibly stuffy and now I have a really bad (and irritating) cough.  BLECH BLECH BLECH!!!!!!  :(  I'm sick of being sick!  I can't seem to get comfortable.  I'm sitting on the couch, but everytime I put on a blanket, I'm hot, and when I take it off, I'm cold!!!  :(  At least the Wi-Fi is back.....that way I can blog, forum, and do other things on the computer for a while.  ;)  Sorry if I'm complaining, I'm really bored and uncomfortable at the moment.  ;P

I have plenty to do.  I could read, I have been writing, and I could do some school work, but right now I decided I'll just blog for a while.  ;)  I'm really pumped for tonights TCW episode!!!  :D  I can't wait!  I think I'll put in Star Wars next, because I'm going to be writing some fanfics.  ;)  Here's one I wrote last night and posted on The Lakehouse.  ===>  CLICK HERE

:D  That was fun to write.  ;)  I figured that just about all Star Wars obsessed fans have a dream or write a story like this, so I thought I'd give it a go.  ;)

Alright, alright.  On to Love Will Prevail.  ;)  I'm at a writers block, but I've already got 5 chapters, so I'll keep posting until I run out of chapters.  ;)  This chapter is short and pretty boring, mainly because it's a filler chapter.  ;)  It's not the best chapter, so just bear with me.  ;)  Chapter 4 is much better!  ;)

Chapter 3
Jacob and Fallon grew in their relationship over the next several months, staying up late at night talking for hours.  Some of the other soldiers and knights thought it was weird that they were in love in midst of a war, and that they were always “making out” when they were alone.  It was obvious that they were in love, and just about everyone in their division of the army knew it.  Cayden, Fallon’s little brother loved Jacob and often sat on his lap or had him read him stories.  Fallon thought it was sweet and Jacob didn’t mind in the least.  She and Jacob had been though a lot together, and would fight side by side all the time in battle.  It wasn’t until the battle of Canarak that one of them was injured or shot down in battle.  Most people called it luck, but Fallon knew that it was something to do with God’s plan, and that somehow they were meant to live through those battles.  She tried to remember that as she sat now talking to Jacob who was so seriously injured.  Jacob reached from his sitting position to feel Fallon’s cheek.  He raised an eyebrow as he felt her cheeks were wet.  “Were you crying?” he asked.   Fallon felt her cheeks flush and she said, “Umm, yes.  I was.”  She nodded and lowered her head.  “Why?” asked Jacob gently.  Fallon hadn’t cried in nearly two years, since her parents were murdered.  Fallon held his hand in hers and said quietly, “I was…worried.  About you.  You were probably going to die….and I was scared.”  Jacob nodded and said with a small smile, “You were afraid for me?”  Fallon rolled her eyes and kissed his cheek.  “Of course I was.  I love you….I couldn’t let you go.” She said, her voice growing quiet once again.  Jacob ran his hand through her tangled brown hair and smiled up at her.  “I love you too.” He said, and pulled her closer to him.  Fallon edged closer, trying very hard not to look at the bloody shirt that was tied around Jacob’s stomach.  The blood made her nervous all over again.  The wound was so deep, and Fallon knew that she only had a matter of time before infection set in.  For the time being though, she was glad that Jacob was alive and that he could at least talk to her.  After just holding each other for a minute, Fallon whispered to him, “You know we don’t have that much time, right?” he nodded and held her closer.  They kissed and Fallon felt at peace.  She gently brushed her hand on his cheek and deepened their kiss.  After a while, they let go and Fallon smiled at him.  “What are we going to do?” she said quietly.  “You aren’t going to last much longer you know.” She added her voice cracking.  Jacob nodded again and said, “Do you know how far we are from the Kingdom?  We need to get back…” then his eyes widened and he stopped midsentence.  “Oh my goodness,” he said, “I just thought of something.” Fallon turned to him and said with alarm, “What?!?  What is it?”  Jacob looked at her and said, “Cayden.  How are the others going to explain where we are?  They probably think we are dead!”  Fallon bit her lip and her eyes widened too.  “I-I Don’t know!  They probably do think we’re dead!  Oh!  Poor Cay!!”

Like I said, Chapter 4 will be longer and more interesting!  ;)  In the next chapter we're going to meet Cayden, Fallon's little brother, and two more knights who are friends of Fallon and Jacob. I really like the two new characters that will be in the next chapter and I would even say that they each could have their own story!  ;)  Anyway, I really like Chapter 4.  Sorry this one was so short!!!  ;P

Okay, I'd better get off Blogger and go rest.  ;) I've gotta change the movie....Mermaidia just ended.  ;P  I'll probably put in ESB, it's my favorite!  ;)   I also have to work on my critique....I'm writing it on Johnny Tremain the movie.  ;)  LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!  LOL, I'm SUCH a fangirl.  ;P  *rolls eyes*  Well, I'll talk to y'all later, I'm sure I'll be on a LOT today, seeing I'm not going ANYWHERE!!!  Blech, my nose hurts from using so many tissues.  :P  Okay, TTFN!  Ta-Ta For Now!!  :)

P.S. BTW, I made a new poll.  ;)

Question #2: Yes.  Guilty.  ;)  I loved the TV show.  I loved her music.  I still do like some of it.  ;)  

Question #3:  Yes.  On my iTouch.  ;)  Dictionary App rocks!  :P  :D

Now.  On to my post!  :)  

First of all......HAPPY BIRTHDAY ENDOR!!!!!!!!  :D  Endor is one of my absolute best internet friends!!  Today is her Sweet 16!!!  :D  Yay!!!!!  Happy Birthday!!!  :D 

Hehe.  I'm sick.  Blech.  I have a flu/virus/cold thing, and I'm pretty miserable.  I can't breathe, my nose is so stuffed up.  I keep coughing and sneezing.  AND I have a sore throat.  
Only upside, I sleep on the couch, get to watch movies/TV, and I can read and write to pass the time.  ;) 
I'm going to watch Johnny Tremain for the fifth time tonight.  Then I'm going to watch the first half of ROTS, because the second half makes me bawl my eyes out and will upset my sinuses even more.  ;P  
I'm nearly done with The Titan's Curse.  AKA Percy Jackson #3.  It's really good so far!  I'll probably have it done by tomorrow.  ;)  Then I'm going to read some more.  I've got to finish IronHeart, and The Crystal Star, and Dark Force Rising (I know, I know, It's STILL not done?  ;P) AND I want to start the next Percy Jackson book AND Magyk the first in the Septimus Heap series.  I enjoy re-reading books.  ;)

I didn't go to dance.  I was so sick that I didn't even want to move, but my mom made me come and sit in the car with her.  The medicine I took is FINALLY kicking in, so now I'm feeling a lot better.  Thus I was able to drag myself off my couch, and over to the computer.  ;)  I might tag along when my sister goes to dance again, depending on how I feel.  I'm supposed to go to Tap, but I might just go and watch.  ;)  It all depends on how I feel.  

I need to update my pages.  Endor, more fanfics are coming your way!  ;)  LOL!  I know you love 'em as much as me!  ;)  
I also have several posts written out, but not finished yet.  When my laptop gets the wi-fi back tomorrow, I'm going to publish my Johnny Tremain post.  


TeeHee, Johnny Tremain.  ;)  *giggles like crazy fangirl, then starts coughing because of cold*  :D  I LOOOOVE Johnny Tremain!  Best. Movie. Ever.  :)  At least for me.  I didn't like certain things that happened in the book, but the movie was like my book AU.  ;)   I've written two more Johnny Tremain fanfics...... ;)
My mom asked me if I wrote about the historical part, because Johnny Tremain takes place during the Revolutionary War time, and I was going to answer when she said, "Or was it more of a Johnny/Cilla story?"  I blushed and mumbled something about Johnny/Cilla and then finished my soup.  ;)

So ends my post for now.  I've got an empty couch that is waiting for me.  ;)  I'm going to answer some comments first though!  ;)  

Love ya,
Jedi~Chick <3
