Creative Juices

I made a fudge brownie for my dessert tonight!

So my stepmom is out of town for three days with my grandma, who is having eye surgery, which means that my sister and I have to take care of the house. FUN. I'm a weird mixture of laid back and control freak, meaning that IF I do something it doesn't have to be perfect, but it has to be done a specific way.

Yeah, it's only one night into the three days and my sister and I are already starting to get on each other's nerves. I don't think she realizes that as the older sister, I get the last say in everything...

I've also been making more stars! My awesome English teacher last year is a big Poe fan, and I found this awesome template online for the stars so I thought, hey why not make some for her?

She's probably going to be writing me a lot of recommendation letters so I figure why not shower her with gifts. It's the least I can do.

Not to mention I've been so inspired lately with my art... I can't wait to post about my new sketchbook and all of my drawings, but that post will probably come later :)

Master Plans

So a few days ago this guy in my class and I came up with this GENIUS plan.

Well, ok, anyone with an IQ over 100 could have come up with it, but I'd like to think that I'm pretty smart.

Since I started high school I've been awaiting Junior year when we got to vote for class officers and I've got to say, I'm really excited about the possibility of being an officer for my senior class.

Anyways, in English this guy let slip that he wanted to run for President, and I was like, NO WAY, I want to be Vice President! Being the opportunists that we are we quickly joined forces and found a Secretary and Treasurer to be a part of our team. We even have a campaign manager.

Voting won't start till probably April or so, but I think that we have a good chance of winning and whatnot. All we have to do is snag about 50 or so votes each and we're set!

I'm so antsy! I can't wait for election time so that I can start campaigning for votes!

in which my heart flutters like a fangirl

It's no lie, I've been a Fall Out Boy fan since the sixth grade. Even when Infinity on High came out I still stuck true as a fan, despite the fact that I felt that the album was a little overproduced. BUT NOW.
Patrick, my favorite band member has gone solo. YES. His voice is like melting butter on a blueberry muffin; like Adam Lavine on silk; like dew on a blade of grass; like the smoothest, sharpest cheddar cheese....

Ok so maybe those similes were a bit disturbing and somewhat creepy, but you have no idea how many times I've listened to his voice. Back when I was all dark, twisty, and quasi-depressed (and seeing a shrink) his voice lulled me to sleep at night, and now that I'm ok his music is almost like the continuation of life. I've moved on, and so has his music. Ok, I just read the last two sentences, and I'm quite aware of the cheese ratio in them, but I don't care.


Patrick Stump is back, and his music is too :) BTW, if you haven't heard his cover of Marvin Gaye's song Let's Get It On..... well you should listen to it. I can't help but think that his new makeover makes him look like one of my favorite philosophers Søren Kierkegaard... Aaaaand that picture is my screensaver.

I usually don't think cover songs are as good as the original, but I like this verson slightly better than Andre 3000's.
