mysterious fires

So considering I haven't made a blog post in, oh, forever, that I would make one now. I have no idea what I am going to talk about, but I'm sure I will think of something. I'm fairly screwed up enough to think of SOMETHING interesting :) Oh, we'll there is a massive fire in Winnipeg now - all I could see was a massive pile of smoke coming from downtown, and apparently the building is full of approx. 800,000 litres worth of flammable or explosive liquids in it. This might sound sorta bad, but it sort of reminds me of the scene from the Dark Knight where Rachelle and Harvey Dent are in opposite buildings full of explosions and Batman can only save one of them (can you tell I like Batman). I wonder what's going on...I'll have to find out! I'm sure it will be a paper tomorrow...

I Am Back.

Like, I said; I am back. YAY!

I thought that right now would be a good time for a block post, considering the following points;
A) I haven't posted since, like, october.
B) I feel happily emotional this evening.
C) The nose plays. Crap.

Okay, so there is a new cd that came out: Danger Days of the Fabulous Killjoys - MCR and the songs are actually super duper amazing sauce, and the songs are actually very relatable. The songs of this album have put me in the mood I am in now, which is a good one. I feel rather thoughtful and positive.

The song that I am listening to right now is called "Sing" and is mostly about, you guessed it, singing. More figuratively than not however. I do not feel like analyzing it, but it makes me feel good. So there. So does "Na Na Na" which is basically about not caring and watching the world blow up. It's very nice. "The Only Hope For Me Is You" is a very sweet song, and I love it too. I lo ve the messages that the album is showing. Usually they are like "Life is mean and let's yell about it RAWWWWR" which I also enjoy, but this one is more "Care about yourself and don't let the world hold you back from what you want" which I absolutly love about it.

My name is Ashley and I approve this cd.

See, the funny thing is that I want this badly, but there is a HUGE spider as the logo for the cd cover. If you are not aware, I am very much aracnophobic. Like, seriously. One time there was a tiny little spider in the car above my seat and I burst into histaric tears. Yeah, not so fun.

Spiders are actually so gross, however, I can stand scorpians and snakes. In fact, I rather like snakes, as long as they are not chewing on me and spitting venom in my blood stream causing me to start nervous convulsions and then being rushed to the hospital and having to get it all pumped out of me and then not being able to go to school and obtain all my credits to graduate high school and because I would be recovering I would have to eat cold hospital food and have to use straws when I drink liquids like chocolate milk and i don't like drinking chocolate milk from a straw because it ruins it for me and then I will be sad and have to result in drinking milkshakes rather than chocolate milk with a straw which I suppose wouldn't be so bad considering that I also love milkshakes.

Now I want a milkshake.

Well, that's it for today. Until next time :)

And Here We Go Again...

Here we are. First couple weeks of school, getting use to a busy lifestyle and trying to find some free time to ourselves instead of doing homework.

Oh goody.

Nah, to be honest, school isn't that bad. I actually do enjoy it, but lately, it has been hell-in-a-building, I swear...my friends are the only thing that are keeping me from completly breaking down. I love you guys. Thank you.

I went to California for a week and missed a week of school. Though I had a heck of a time catching up (almost done doing that; I just have one more test...), everything is slowly down...finally. Not so much stress, or work, or late late nights. Like today for instance. I haven't done a single peice of homework yet this evening. No, I do not intend to. That's the beauty of Fridays.

I'm still kinda depressed, so I might just do some unstressing thingys...NOT yoga, that actually just pissed me off cuz I always just fall over...*sigh* Music is my escape. I'm seriously considering writing my own songs and such, and learning the guitar. That might be my new hobby now...hm.

Being a part of a band is a big dream of mine. I firmly believe any dream you have can come true. You just need to be dedicated enough to make it happen. And I totally am.

There's a club at school apparantly that is singing/songwriting, so I totally want to look into that...maybe that will be my first steps. Exciting, eh?

Until next time :)

A New Step

First day of grade 12 tomorrow.

Mixed emotions indeed. I'll make a longer post tomorrow. Until then...

Wish all of us starting school soon luck :)

Vents and Rants

Why does everything have to be so angrying?

Seriously though, my stress level has completly exploded from the last time I was stressed. I haven't been stressed since June. Until now. Ugh.
I'm trying to prepare for my tae kwon do belt test...so many steps. I also found out that I have to run 10K in a few weeks on my own time instead of with the rest of my do jang on the Terry Fox Run, do to the fact I will be in California. YAY to Calirfornia, not so much yay for the 10K run.

I also have an essay to write, and yeah, I'm working on it, I did a lot today, but I'm so sick of it T^T I just wanna enjoy the last part of my summer; not get constant headaches (which I have had everyday for the past week, pretty much) and pains about it.

Okay, I'm getting annoyed with my complaining. Lets move on to something say...happy? It felt nice to vent though. :)

Getting ready to get back to school. Woot, woot. Hahaha, no actually it's alright. You know, school really isn't that bad once you think about it. All your friends are there, and some cafeterias have good food (mmm...my schools muffins and cookies. Probably have, like, one billion calories, but no one really cares. Too yummy.)
and you get to get some new stuff to start out the year. I got a backpack that was suppose to be $50 for 50% off at one of my favorite stores! YAY! It even came with a beer can opener! CHYEA~ However, since I am not 18, I will not bring a 12 pack to school and chug away in my classes.

Twould be funny. But a bad idea.

I also just bought an Ipod Touch. YAY~ I am actually treating it like it's my own child :P I won't put it on a surface unless it has something non-scratchy to support it AND I am such a freak about getting as much music as humanly possible onto it. So far, a few wicked cool CD's, and eventually I will skip over to Itunes and buy some tunes. For that what it is made for. Myes.

Apps as well. OOOOOOHHHHHHH so excited about apps~ I mostly want a game called Leaf Trombone (which is kinda like guitar hero, in a way, except you use a slide to match up the colors instead of buttons to hit like guitar frets) and a zombie game my friend has on his. Seriously, if he has his Ipod I BEG to play it. That's right. I beg. I am addicted to it. Just thinking about it is making me twitch O.o Not really. That would be creepy.

Anyways, I shall leave now, and proceed on another adventure.

Live long, stay strong :)

New News

Hey y'all!

I discovered something very interesting indeed. I am planning to test for my second dan black belt in December of 2010, and I found out some things about it. I discovered that I have to write a large essay (which is fine), and then I have to write a two part exam (which is also fine), but I also have to do a conditioning peice that will last for 30 min. That is also fine, but I need to get more fit.

Some people testing last time couldn't finish the conditioning and ended up failing the exam. Which sucks. Majorly.

So in order to pass the whole exam, I defidently need to up my game when it comes to preparing for it. I also need to make some even BIGGER life changes than I was trying to make before. Now; run everyday, bucket loads of crunches, and weight practice. I just truly don't want to look like a weight lifter at the end of this...

However, I need to do it in order to pass. I will do ANYTHING to pass this test. It means so much to me, and if I have to work my butt off to do well...

Then consider it done!

My Diagnosis

Okay. So I was being a little emo child yesterday. I apologize.

I woke up this morning and was actually happy. I suppose this makes sense that I went to bed at 12:00 am rather than 2:00 am like most nights...yeah. So that helped, hehehe... ^^"

I also figured out what I must do in order to get myself feeling good again. Get healthier. I like to sit around during the summer and play video games and watch anime (it's it HEAVEN, trust me) but I have been inspired to get healtheir and actually move a little bit on my days off. Starting today.

Please root me on and push me to continue doing this. I could use the back-up. I want to look good for grad and also just to feel better about myself!

So let's get started! :3
