07:16 am - hello alone well, okay. I'm picking up the LJ thread again.
from now on this journal is officially friends only (I should find a pretty banner or something...). If you want to be my friend, comment and I'll add you (unless you're just some totally random clueless person I've never met...).
Oh, and I also cleaned out a bunch of old friends. if you want to be added back, comment and you can be.
that's about it!

08:00 am - the letters...... Red book of Westmarch: ahhh!!!! yes!!! for those of you non-lotr-freaks, this is the book where first Bilbo writes down his adventures, and then Frodo does. (In the movie, Samwise comes into the room where Frodo is, and he's like "You've finished it!" that's the red book.) And then Samwise records some, and then he passes it on to Elanor(his daughter) before Samwise set sail for the Undying lands, and so (supposedly) it came into the hands of J.R.R. Tolkien. And in the movie, there's this actual book that is hand written (by David Salo) that you can actually read the hobbit in! (with crossouts, and additions, and in-his-own-words type of thing). It probably spends 30 seconds on film, but David Salo spent about two years writing the book in elvish style handwriting by hand.
*realizes how long she went* *stops*
Ripped-up: what my favorite jeans are. I tripped on the escalator at Disneyland (I was running up the down escalator {bad me :P}) and ripped two holes in the knees. and in my knees as well.
Rauros falls: "Oh Boromir, the tower guard will ever northward gaze, to Rauros, golden Rauros-falls, until the end of days." It's this big waterfall, and the boat with Boromir's dead body in it goes over the edge. it's really pretty!
Red: *melancholy Eeyore voice* my favorite color. what size was it? "Oh bbout as b-big as mm-me." my favorite size. My red birthday balloon.
Riddemark (also known as Rohan): Horses! people! FORTH EORLINGAS!!!!!
Radagast the brown: He got cut out of the movie, but he's a Istari wizard like Gandalf. In the book, he has this special affinity with the animals and Gandalf asks him to gather the animals to Orthanc, and Radagast hasn't turned evil like Saruman and so that's why the eagle comes to get Gandalf from the top of the tower. In the movie it's this moth thing.
Relient K: YAY!!!!!!!! maybe it was them, or maybe it was me, or maybe it's maybeline!
Ruling the world: Sam was going to do this. But so was my friend BJ. they got into an argument about it on myspace. either way, I'll be placed in a position of power. but actually, Sam might try to get me voted off the planet....*sighs* I'll vote for BJ, then.
(the) River sings: Enya song from Amarantine! in Loxian! with strange drums and chanting! *sings*
Rosie Cotton: yay! Samwise's wife! in the movie, they just had two kids, Elanor and Frodo. Elanor was actually Sean Astin's (he was Samwise) daughter, and Frodo was Sarah Mcleod's (rosie) daughter! yes, Frodo was actually a girl!
*Does not add any more LOTR entries*
if you want, I'll give you a letter to do, but I think everyone's got one already. Current Location: Elven Halls, Mirkwood Current Mood: strange Current Music: whatever's going around in my head

03:48 pm - I'll show you what we've missed since we slipped into inconsistency Church talent show last night. eh. I was in the most things (4) this year, but as Mr. Villa said: "Welcome to the annual Boyd *cough* Emmanuel baptist talent night. They had to reschedule it last year merely because we couldn't attend. like, there were 5 things on the program we weren't in. eh. So there was the church choir. we did okay, except everybody looked at the ground. and there was my sunday school class.........we were insane. we sang "This little light of mine"........we'd only sung it together twice before. and our guitar player/teacher had surgery on his elbow the day before. but we were supposed to be insane. that was the point. except Isaac (the only boy) and Elizabeth (the most easily embarassed) just stood up there and sang. but the other three of us clapped and waved our lights in the air and were insane. did I already mention that?
Then I played my Mazurka. which is a really fast and totally cool piece.......except I flubbed the ending. but nobody noticed. I like, memorized the piece only a couple of days before.....hehe.
Then there was our ensemble. despite only one and 1/2 rehearsals, we were actually okay. We didn't write the words or the tune, but we had no music, so we wrote everything else. First song: Greenwaves. I played violin. missed my slidy-up part, but it was better then me doing it wrong. and I had to invent a new position on the violin merely to play my part...2 1/2 postion. BJ played piano. she wrote all the piano parts including like this variation that doesn't sound anything like the piece but somehow fits the chorus line perfectly. Em and Liz sang. they were kind of timid, but that sounded okay over the microphone. they both have awesome voices. second song: Orinoco flow. we like, had to write a beginning and an end because they required stuff we didn't have....like drums...but it was so awesome. three of us sang, while BJ again played the piano.
Afterward, Nate is like, "Elizabeth and Emily were just standing there, but you were really getting into it!" Sam comes up: that's my sister! she's going to be a headbanger in a celtic band! Sail away, sail away, sail away! Current Mood: bouncy Current Music: trademark move (Relient K)

07:21 pm I'm worried about my dog. 'cause he keeps throwing up. let me clarify. I'm not worried about if he's sick or not. I'm worried about how small his brain is if he keeps eating grass and dirt. Seriously, he ate a hole in the grass. and he just throws it all up and doesn't care. that can't be good. So, anyway.....my puppy is a bit lacking in the upper story. Current Music: Falling out

07:19 pm - After all this time, I never thought I have been having a perfect weekend. now if the bridal shower will only go well. Went shopping thursday night, got an outfit and shoes........... spent friday being lazy.............. but today was awesome. I had orchestra, as usual.........then I hung out with Nessie for two+ hours. We went to Ted Brown music store--a music store for music-obsessed people--they had two rows of popular-music books. Mmhmm, nothing is sound, whatever-the-coldplay-album-is-that-has-clocks-on-it, and a whole section for enya. bliss. went to lunch, then to Krispy Kremes, then went back to the Pantages theater. We heard the Cairos string quartet. Woah. They are the BEST. so way. They were the professors from central washington university-and after that, I had a master class with one of them. did okay.
came home, found a hole in my favorite jeans, spent about two hours in my room sewing patches onto the jeans. hehe. My great-grandmother had a bad habit of buying fabrics to make quilts, but never actually finishing the quilts, only making trillions of potholders. so she left plenty of material behind. so I did the patches in a dark brown with little white dots fabric, and then a tan fabric with a colored floral pattern. they look kind of dorky. but I love them.
No matter how many times I use it, I still love my icon. Current Mood: dorky Current Music: which to bury us or the hatchet. (Mmhmm)

10:45 am I'm bored. So I'm psyhicing out the chat room on Arwen-undomiel. I think they think I'm somebody else. is somebody else using the name of Tindomerel? I wonder who has time to spend on internet chat rooms all day? besides me.
I think I scared everyone away. *Evil laughter*
look at the awesome icon I stole from Sam. isn't it cool? It's even cooler BECAUSE I stole it from sam.
*More evil laughter*
Now I'm being somebody else, and talking to my other person in the chat room..............I love doing this. *is evil* everyone's ignoring me.................meh. I should be doing school.
*is insane*
okay. There is somebody else named Tindomerel. meh. ruins my fun. Current Mood: insane Current Music: ROTK soundtrack.

06:16 pm - laaaaaaaa....................... Party last night rocked. well, okay, at first it was boring and kinda stiff.........until we started dancing. to 50's music. fun. So we danced for a long time and then me + friends and add-ons decided to move out to the patio. all the windows were open, so it didn't matter. Then we noticed the trampoline. We were all on a sugar high, so bouncing on the trampoline while singing Yellow Submarine (yeah, I know that's not fifties)sounded like a good idea. So we did it for the rest of the night.
And the Laffy-taffy bucket was at this one table with a bunch of adults.......so we had to run the gauntlet in order to get any. until Jessica finally grabbed the bucket and ran.
And we danced and bounced on the trampoline and ran all over the yard in bare feet till my dad came.
Then, we all lay down on the trampoline and then when Nate called out looking for me, Jessica said I wasn't there. So we ran around and hid underneath the windows for another ten minutes before I finally went in.
All in all, I had a very good time. A very hyper time. but hyper=good. Current Mood: hyper Current Music: ROTK Soundtrack

10:22 am - The red extinguishes the hope that the green ignites Break week at my house=boring. Oh yeah, what a great idea, I can do EXTRA math because I have so much time! *sigh* President's day was awesome though. 'Cause I got to chose what we did..........so we went to a bakery for breakfast, went the Woodland Park Zoo and watched the otters (maybe that's where Alex's inner otter is; hiding out at the zoo.) Then Seattle Goodwill, banana milkshakes, and then we went rock climbing. Rock climbing=sore muscles and tons of fun. I climbed three times. The climbing walls are roughly higher then my house. First climb = wimpy. Second climb, wall was at a slant towards me. owww. Third climb, got stuck halfway up and the coach had to direct me up the rest of the way. I came down and nearly fainted. *sigh*
At babysitting on Wednesday, this mom who I've never met tells me she babysat me once. Well, actually, I must have met her if she babysat me. but I don't remember her. hmmmmmmmm.........Now I'm babysitting her kids. funny how that goes.
Sam has still not come up with a form of punishment for smearing cheese sauce on his cheek and then doing it AGAIN with frosting at church. hehey. It was blue frosting too. mwhahahah..............
Sock hop this Friday. Wonder if Sam wants to go.........*wanders off to ask Samwise*........

05:51 pm - The ships have come to carry you home *sigh* Friday totally pwned. (to put it in sam's terminology.) Thunderbirds game, hung out with Andrea and Em and Liz...............smeared Nacho sauce on Sam's cheek. bought a big bag of skittles. (and ate more then half of it myself........) did the fan dance thing at both halftimes. thirdtimes?
whatever.
I was hyper the whole time.
as usual.
The first thirdtime I did the macarena by myself, second thirdtime Emwise did it with me.
But we never got on the screen.
Then, right in the middle of the last third, a voice comes out of the speakers......
"Hi. this is Napoleon."
I swear, Samwise jumped a foot in the air.
So, on the screen they showed clips of napoleon dancing.................. and then in between they showed fans dancing. So I started to do the macarena, all by my lonesome self...........
Then I got on the screen..........
And EVERYONE around me gets up and starts dancing. Rotten cheaters!
At the end of the game, there was a gigantic fight........and everyone stood up and cheered them on.
which proved my theory that the people who go to hockey games are the same people who went to the Coliseum in Ancient Rome. Who signaled thumbs down a lot. or thumbs up. whichever way it was. and then bullfighting and dogfighting and cockfighting and bearfighting and all that..............some of those people just want to see blood. sheesh. I got up and screamed with the rest of them, but instead I was screaming "Sore loser! Gladiator!" I was seeing red there for a second. I was soooo mad..................... why is it entertainment to watch somebody pound somebody else's head into the ice?
But then I got outside and felt better, and I stole Lizzy's hat and completely forgot about the fight because I was running for my life............no kidding. Lizzy must really like her hat. sheesh. I would have given it back eventually.
Sam has yet to get me back for the cheese sauce escapade. Current Mood: moody Current Music: Into the west

10:49 am - This is my life *sighs* What a weekend.
Teen meeting Saturday night. Spent forever sorting out playing cards, then we played spoons for only fifteen minutes before dinner. During dinner we all sang Yellow Submarine......:P. That was fun. Then devotions...........Then we started the choir. First time our church has had a choir.
haha.......... with 2 tenors (maybe only one), 2 bass, 4 sopranos, and 7 altos, we're going to be interesting, to say the least. Hopefully the other two girls who weren't there are sopranos. hopefully. *crosses fingers* The soprano part goes pretty high, so most people can't do it. (I'm a soprano.)The choir sounds pretty good, considering we've only has two rehearsals so far. Then again, we have a really awesome director who's done this before.
Me and Sam were going to get a ride home with someone...........but then Lizzy and Em (sisters; both my friends) invited me to stay for a sleepover.........so I left Sam to get home on his own. I still don't know how he did it. (Ran all the way?..........:P)
The three of us stayed up late giggling............as usual...........and salivating over a Noble LOTR catalog.......as usual..........I sooooo want an evenstar pendant........ ($75 for the minature one)(*sigh*).
In the morning, we had an entertaining time trying to find nice clothes that fit me.......I ended up wearing a conglomeration of Lizzy's and Em's clothes.
My friend BJ rides to church with them, and we'd been careful not to tell her I was there.......so I suprised her. I snuck up behind her, covered her eyes, and made her guess. Is it Elaina? no. Is it Eric? no. Is it Ethan? no. Is it Elizabeth? no. Is it Beth? no. (She stalls.....) Is it Bob? no. Is it Cornelius? no. Is it Fred? no. Is it Ginger? no. Is it.... it's Anna! *she turns around and hugs me* hehey........fun.
At church, Andrea comes up to me and asks, "have a nice time at the Watts?", deduced merely from what I was wearing. ha. She knows me so well.
ahhh! and BJ gave me Skittle Bubble Gum! and it really tastes like skittles! and it doesn't stick to my spacers!
So that's what I did all weekend. *sighs* I love my life. Current Mood: loved Current Music: Winter's on the wing (secret Garden)

04:07 pm - Take me home to the meadow that cradles my heart *sigh* what a day. Mrs. Randall in biology was sooo fun. We actually got done what we were supposed to get done......AND had a lot of fun in the process. *another sigh*
I came home and spent an hour playing in the yard with the dog........D'artagnan is sooo funny. He wants to come up close to me to get the treat I have in my hand.......but he doesn't want me to catch him and take him back inside. So his solution was to run by and grab the treat in passing.........'cept he doesn't have very good aim. So when he misses the treat, he'll have to swerve and try to get it again. And he'll try to sneak up behind me to grab it........but he always misses it that way.
At puppy kindergarten on Wednesday the teacher was demonstrating how to stop the dog from jumping. just tap him lightly on the top of the head. So D'artagnan ran up to her and started jumping, she tapped him, and he yelped and ran right underneath my dad's chair (and cowered.) But, unfortunately, my dog doesn't learn, so after about a second he runs right out and jumps again! scene repeat. poor dog.
I should go bake something. Some kind of dessert. hmmmmm.................... Current Mood: happy Current Music: Greenwaves
