The Final Countdown

Is it or is it not sad that I am occupying my studyhall time by blogging? I just have nothing else to do. I can only stare at a blank screen for so long before my mind begins to deteriorate. Hmm, what to blog about today my cyber friends, that is the question.

Well, to start off, I learned that Jorge is a bigger idiot than originally thought. Example: "Hey Tara, can I use your locker today?" "But Jorge, my dear friend, you have your own locker." "Yeah but I forgot the key to mine. I don't have a regular lock because I am unable to open them." "I spoze'." "Nah nevermind."

Boy just doesn't trust me.

My day is always better when I laugh the first ten minutes I am inside this horrific building.

I went to the OIP on Saturday and had egglant parmesan. Last time I was there with Fred she got it and made me promise that I would get it the next time I was there. I did. I liked it. I was surprised. But the best part was calling Sharona, Sharonuh Molly at her workplace.

I'm running out of things to write about and I still have over thirty minutes left of this period.

I guess I could talk about how there is only ten days left of my high school career, but that wouldn't be any fun. I'm not going to miss this place. I may miss the people I see everday in this place, but that's about it. And hey, there's always facebook to stay connected.

Oh I know! I just filled out my roommate paper and mailed it in. It's due Wednesday. I'm on top of things! I found some of the questions on there a bit weird.

"What side of the bed do you sleep on?"

"If your boyfriend/girlfriend sleeps over, do they sleep in your bed?"

"How many alcholic beverages do you consume in a week?"

Of course there were the normal questions, too. I got my housing number and am now just waiting to see who my other three roommates will be. I guess I'll find out in a month or so. Then we can plan on who brings what, etc.

TWENTY MINUTES!

I got a summer job! Same place I was last year and I'm glad. I was able to make 1,500$ in six weeks, so I'm hoping to do the same this year. The original plan was to save it for books at college, but the "assistance" (aka relief) office is paying for books, gas, and the meal plan. I find that to be a good thing. More people should do it. So that just gives me more money to blow on useless things. I might just even put some away for the Meat Loaf and U2 concerts instead of making my mom pay.

Down to fifteen minutes!!

Central Penn sent me a paper asking me where I would like to intern during my third year down there. They said it's not official but they like to get a general idea of their student's interests. They gave me a lot of options to choose from. Most were in PA, but there were quite a few outside of state, too. Apparently Disney World is an option. There were places in New York, Florida, D.C, and...yep, you guessed it, Arizona. I had to mark three options. I'm still yelling at myself for picking two that were in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia and Harrisburg, and then I marked New York. I don't know if I could handle being in an unfamiliar state with no one I know around me, but it's worth a try. I'll probably get Philidelphia because that's the one I least want.

TEN MINUTES!

I'm out of things to say.

If you made it this far, let me know and I'll pay you ten dollars.

SEVEN MINUTES!

MLKJ Pt 2

I was going to enter a catchy song in this blog and change the words to it, but I'm not feeling it right now. I knew I should have just stayed home. I can already tell today is going to suck and I've only been here forty minutes.

BUT I WILL RAMBLE!

I saw on the news this morning that people are trying to pass a law where you...CAN'T SING PATRIOTIC SONGS IN PUBLIC IN FEAR OF OFFENDING......FOREIGNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY?

I will sing what I want, when I want, where I want. I'm going to walk through the streets of Miami where most illegals immigrate to, and sing God Bless America. Sure, I'll probably be shot/stabbed/stranged/kidnapped/beat to death, but It'll all be worth it in the end.

Because I'll be known as the white Martin Luther King.

Over Achiever!

I opted to take classes through breaks in Central Penn so I finish a year sooner. It'll be more work and less time to myself and people around me, but it's what I want. Instead of taking spring breaks and a long extended summer break, I'll just continue with my classes. It'll save me money and time. I signed and mailed in the papers yesterday, so there's no turning back. I'm a little worried with whether or not I can handle the workload.

I guess only time will tell.

Pet Peeve

I hate procrastonators. They drive me nuts. Why do they feel the need to put everything off? Seriously. I never realized my intense hatred for it until yesterday. You don't wait six days to do something that could have been done a week ago. It's sad when something starts bothering me and I take initiative to get it done.

Put A Sock In It

There are some people in this world that shouldn't be allowed to speak. Such as:

1. People in second period.
2. Teacher in second period.
3. Kristin.
4. My sister.
5. Sharona.


My school day would be so much better if said people were mute.

Tara for Class Historian!

I'm not big on reunions.

Family reunions, school reunions, work reunions, death reunions...I'm just not into it.

I do not see the point in them. Catching up with people and seeing who they are married to and looking at hundreds of pictures of their kids is just not something I care about. Each year I am forced to go to my own family reunion. I don't mind it as much now that I am older. I am able to appreciate the humor.

They drink. They play poker. They argue. We all go home.

In ten years will I come back to my high school reunion?

Probably, it's all part of my plan to be Class Historian!

Mrs. Tara Hamlet

I was listening to Phish last night and came to the realization that I don't listen to them enough. So that prompted todays topic: Tara's Top Ten Bands/artists.

1. Aerosmith. I always say I'm not sure if I loved Joe Perry or Aerosmith first, but I don't think it really matters. And even though they cancelled their show in Hershey and broke my heart, I still vow to one day see them in concert.

2. Metallica- I was introduced to Metallica at a young age. The love is still there between us.

3. Guns N' Roses- Yeah...since the first time I heard Axl belt out "Hey hey hey hey yeahhh" after the first verse in Knockin' On Heaven's Door...el oh vee ee

4. Foo Fighters- Their songs All My Life and Everlong I could listen to over and over agian on repeat. Their album Colour and Shape ranks up there on the list of greatest albums ever made..in my opinion.

5. Meat Loaf- Greatest. Singer. Ever. Nuff' said.

6. The Temptations- They were a little (25 years) before my time, but I grew up listening to them because of my mom, and over the years developed a love for them. Seriously, Papa Was A Rolling Stone = their best song.

7. Pearl Jam- Could be because I thought Eddie Vedder was hot, or could be because I love their songs. Why Go is probably my favorite song from them.

8. David Bowie- Dude, Bowie is uh-may-zing. Ashes to Ashes...Fame...Lets Dance...Modern Love..how do you pick a favorite Bowie song?

9. U2- They only made the list because I walk around singing "She Moves in Mysterious Ways" all the time. No, but really, I have to thank Rhonda for introducing me to them because they really are amazing.

10. Stone Temple Pilots- I hate Scott Weiland. I love Scott Weiland's voice.

Honorable Mentions* Toby Keith, Snoop Dogg, The Eagles, The Doors, The Ramones, Heart, and The Bee Gees.

I want to live in a coffin too

An ovatin goes to:

The woman in Juniata county who hid in a coffin to avoid the police.

I have to give her props for being able to handle being in one. I could never do it. I'd be freaking out the moment I got into it. Not only did she hide ino one, but she closed the casket lid. Four hours in a coffin with the lid shut is an honorable thing. Instead of being charged with trespassing, she would be given a medal of bravery/honor/scouts award.

Happily Ever After

I found my Rugrats movie collection today. That made me happy.

I saw my science grade today. That made me happy.

I got my English quizzes back today. That made me happy.

I found my lost books today. That made me happy.

I saw Kristin's hair today. That didn't make me happy.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow, tomorrow, it's only a day away

So the news wasn't as bad as originally thought.

Same thing, different part.

I planned on having a productive night, but that just turned into hanging out with a few friends and getting chinese food.

I'd just like to take a minute to inform you all that tomorrow is spelled exactly like that..tomorrow. Not: tamarrow, tomarrow, tamorrow, 2marrow, 2morrow.

Tomorrow.

Is it that hard?

T-O-M-M-O-R-O-W

UPDATE
....

I spelled it wrong and none of you mentioned it. So much for life lessons in spelling. You people all fail.

I got chills, they're multiplying

I've just recently learned some heart-wrenching news that I feel the need to share with my millions of loyal followers:

Next week is the last week of blogging.

For some reason or another, Dictator said we are done.

Now, I could stop blogging and leave you all hanging, but we know that won't happen.

This means 3 things:

1. I can repost all my good blogs that I was forced against my will (rape) to delete.
2. I can then begin swearing profusely (not that I will, but I have the option).
3. I can leave mean comments on Val's blog!

Who's excited as me?

Proud American!

Hey Cinco De Mayo:

I'M WEARING AN AMERICAN FLAG SHIRT? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

Kick me out of my own country?

I think it is a disgrace that white American students are being punished for wearing their country's colors on a day to celebrate another countries holiday.

Don't like the American flag? Get out.

Simple as that.

It would not bother me at all if every single Hispanic, Mexican, Asian, or Indian, living in the confines of the United States were banned.

I'd applaud it.

Maybe then I could say Merry Christmas without being punished.

Gambling > Proper Child Care

I do not understand why a mother would lose her baby for letting the little brat sit inside the car while she went and gambled at a Las Vegas casino. I happen to think she was very responsible. Think about it, she could have took the baby inside with her and let it witness all the sinning and corruption that takes place inside casinos.

The child was in the car sleeping, so it's not like it would remember this anyway. The economy is rough; not everyone can afford a babysitter. This woman's money was wisely spent at a casino, in hopes that she would win big so she could provide a better life for her child.

Honestly, I don't see what she did wrong.

I mean, the car doors were locked.

hey hey hey hey

Ya'll read way too much into things.
