from the mouth of the QZAR QUEEN herself:
yo!! just got back from three envigorating games of laser tag at Qzar!! i kinda sucked at first since i missed the briefing and i haven't played in almost 5 years! the last time i was there was in 7th grade for i think it was the Darrow twins' birthday party.
the last game i was TOP SCORER! wooo hoo! 14,000 points! my first round i got 7700 which sucked. anyways i ended up with a total of 65 hits to the other team!! they only got me 38 times! my hit ratio was pretty low considering i took 382 laser shots in 15 minutes. one thing that helped was that i hit up their base twice. mere hit it 7 times and didnt go after anyone and she came in second, so i think the base HQs give you mega bonus points.
yesterday we went to UNIVERSAL STUDIOS!!! it was awesome!!! the Revenge of the Mummy is definitely my favorite ride! the Terminator rocked and so did the jet ski show! MIB was ok. we didn't have time to ride Shrek... :-( but we had a blast!
i think today might have been my last day at Shriners. i dont know how i feel about it. i liked it better than last year. i dont think i'll miss it too much. lol.
school is coming waaaay to quickly. me sad. hopefully i'll wake up to shop tomorrow, which is in reality today lol bc it's 3am. tomorrow we are going with our youth group to stuff backpacks at Legends Field. and on Sat we get free tickets to the game. i'm babysitting on Friday, so i think i'm pretty busy. which is somewhat unfortunate b/c i need to read more of my summer reading junk.
hasta la byebye suckers!!! (-- bad guy in the Back to the Future Ride)
i survived a week of DELL
yay! i finished a week of band camp alive!!! Kajannae was there.. and i have a new freshies, Jessica. she's learning pretty quick. Friday really rocked! section leaders and officers filled up water balloons for the water balloon fight and we got to shoot squirt guns at the others during the drill down.
- bad news: sun burn!! we went jet skiing today and now my sunburn is in the shape of my life jacket!
- good news: getting to be a pro at tubing off a jet ski! today was the first time i've ever fallen off. at the end of one ride, my dad swings the jet ski around to a stop so i can jump off and swim to shore, and once he did it so sharp and fast that i flew off the back and skidded on the water on my back for at least 10 feet or so! it was awesome!!
i know i haven't written in a while. it was pretty stressful to cram in everything on my online courses. oh yeah, those turned out good. i got a 100% in economics honors and a 97% in personal fitness.
speaking of courses, i went thursday to get my schedule changed and that was a pain in the @$$. everything i want is during something else i want! so it looks like i'm going to be a TA and in law studies and sociology. not exactly what i had in mind, but it'll work.
yesterday i finally got my senior pictures!! i went way back in may and we sat in the waiting room for about 3 hours till they closed, so i'm glad i finally got it over with. after that i went to my cousin's baby's 2nd birthday party! Kate is getting soo big and cute!!
well this week is going to be really busy. tomorrow i'm going to the section leader's band practice. on tuesday we are going to UNIVERSAL! we haven't decided about IOA or universal studios. i've been to IOA waaay too many times, but i would like to take my whole family there.
so my sun burn is really killing me. hope you're chillin and feelin well. (PS - i'm really impressed at all my new posting options - hence the colors and stuff)
Shania Twain Rocks!!!
i just got back from my first real rock concert, and it was totally awesome! i've been to hundreds of brass band and orchestra concerts, but never the real fireworks-streamers-blow-your-ears-out rock concert!
mere and i were wondering about the opening act and we couldn't find any info on it, so when it came time we were totally thrilled that it was EMERSON DRIVE!!! how awesome is that?! i got a lot of pics and movies of both bands and i plan to post them on my site when i get around to it.
the cool thing is.. my mom came home from work and told us her bank gave her some left over tickets in their box seats! so we got free $100 club seats and all you could eat and drink!! let me say this though, i did not take advantage of the open bar... lol. anyways, i can't wait to get my hearing back.
good news: going to the beach again tomorrow! had an awesome time at a parentless concert!! going to a plant sale tomorrow!!
bad news: falling behind in my online courses. rescheduled my senior pictures the same time as my cousin's baby's 2nd birthday party and they live in atlanta!
things just seem to go from extremes, don't they? anyways i'd really like to go see Incubus at the Forum in september and i think if i can get those club seats again my parents might let me go, despite the "stuff" that goes on b/c it's railed in.
i should've gotten a cowboy hat to bring to the concert! anywhooo, g'night y'all! hallar at yo ma!
upgrade me, scotty
been busy upgrading everything - firefox .9, cutenews 1.3.2, new links page, ... just about the only thing that hasn't been upgraded is my grades... lol. i'm having trouble focusing on my online courses, imagine that. surf the net for the almighty wisdom, or... work on my economics homework??
funny-quote-taken-out-of-context of the day:
"Unfortunately, most people don't like it when you tell them they're wrong, and will call you names upon trying to convince them. Simply by telling the truth you will make yourself unpopular, which puts you on the same level as politicians, and I don't like that."
anyways, i have been thinking about my site...hmm, still thinking.. ok. well the thing is, i like themes. they rock. i want to make a really good one for my site, but i dont know exactly what everyone else would like to look at. i know we cant all agree. i guess i should just do what i want and express myself through the art of web design. (i know, that was corny. hehe) previously i've starred my favorite rubber froggy, Hershal. he used to be on my menu and be your cursor over links, and he still is my favicon, although you can never see those things in IE!!! more recently i've had my candle monkey, Roofus, guest star on my news page. at the moment, i have a pic of my guitar as my header with lyrics to my fave song, Let that be Enough - Switchfoot. but those themes i guess are old, so here's my new idea:
my favorite show is I Love Lucy! i'm thinking of buying ilovemarcy.com! and then i can make an i love lucy theme! too corny? maybe. but it sounds cool right? original? yes maybe, i think i've lost my mind. ok then, i'll see if roofus.com is available. maybe i'll make a poll about the new theme.... i dunno what do you think? should i poll you? now i'm polling you about what i should poll you about! now that's desperate.
speaking of desperate, i've just run into fred durst's xanga journal! crazy stuff man. he is sensitive and poetic. who wooda thunk it? not i!
anyways blogger has been really nice to me and offered me to beta test gmail! so email me now at marchica (at) gmail.com. the shower is calling, so i bid you adieu my fellow bloggism-readers.
