That's So Sick!

Ah-chooo!(a sneeze, even though I have a lymphnode, if that is indeed how you spell it, infection)
Alright everyone, I will admit that I have nothing real to say or report but it's forever since I said anything to/heard anything from any of you (though the fact that no one comments doesn't help, but I'll just go on as if you all are participating) and I was dieing a little inside. So as I mentioned before I'm sick. I've been sick for like three days now and I'll tell you this, it's no fun! Wednesday was the worst, because I was the sickest, and I could barely move and was running a fever all day. Thursday, okay I lied Thursday was worst, around 4 am I was running around 102.5 and I was shivering so hard I felt like I was going to throw up! Today is overall the best (because, though aparently it's a minor point, I went to the Doctor yesterday and got an antibiotic) so I'm sitting watching Made on MTV and possibly breaking yet another fever. On a happier note my multi-chaptered fanfic (since I've already revealed my secret nerdiness to all of you) has now gotten over fifteen-thousand hits! I'm pretty much thrilled! Oh and we went to this awesome all nighter thing last weekend (and I learned I'm a total no sleep wuss) we saw a pro-basketball game (no offense basketball fans but it was a bit dull) and then bowled for like ever! I'm the worst bowler you've ever met, I kid you not... well okay I kid you a little, I never actually lose lose but I'm usually like the one who barely beat whoever lost out of pure luck. Well I gotta shower, my cousin's coming over and I still have fever sweat on me (ewwww!). oh the comment questions: 1) Are you sick? 2) Do you like pro-basketball? if so what's your favorite team? 3) any big Christmas (or whatever holiday you celebrate) plans? 4) like, love, or loathe the new section (see below vv, those are arrows, in case you couldn't tell)

HAPPY Turkey Day!!

First off (that's right, for my majorly original greeting I totaly skipped a greeting, whatchagonnado?), Happy slightly-belated Thanksgiving to those who celebrate Thanksgiving. I'll you a recap of mine super quick. 1) get up 2) help mommy while also staying out of here way 3) stay completely out of the way while getting around 4) help with final touches (fist thanksgiving at our house, everyone very excited/nervous) 5) cousins/aunt arive 6) prayer/setting out the rest of the food they brought 7) eat until we feel like dying 8) sit and moan about said eating 9) play "Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader" DVD game (we were... once out of 4) 10) whine that the winning teams questions were waaay easier 11) even though still unbelievably full eat dessert 12)watch NCIS 13) watch the mentalist 14) say goodbyes/talk 15) say goodbye to relatives and hug 16) flop onto couch still complaining about full we are and complimenting ourselves/our relative on our/their awesome cooking skills.
Black Friday is always a light day for me since neither my mother nor I feel the need to get up at 3am and shop so I slept til 1pm and then got around/lazed about and went with Sissy at like 6. I got a little new make-up so that made the trip worth it. I got 50 more dollars worth of benefit (Boing (aka concealer) and posietint (which is hard to explain so if you're interested just look it up okay?)) and a $7 mascara from Victoria's Secret (I oathe this store to my very core but their make-up is pretty good and very reasonably priced).
Okay so speaking of Vikki's Secret's make-up I have a question: Why is it that the fact that Heidi Klum helped make it a big deal? Personnally I don't see that as a good thing She's a model, model's aren't exactly famous for their minds you know? So mostly I just find it worrisome. But whatever.
Well I just wanted to check in. Oh and I decided I was going to take a leaf out of Michael Buckley's book (double points to you if you know who that is) (also sorry if I slaughtered you name Mr. Buckley) and have comment questions here at the end so that you all will comment.
Comment Questions:
1) Do you watch any particular YouTube shows, if so who/what? And why?
2) Do like our Blog or not? Do think we're awesome or annoying? Fab or flop? great or hate? Come on people give me something!
3) How was your Thanksgiving? What did you do?
4) Do you all like Benefit make-up?

PS as always will attempt to edit later so leave that alone eh?

The Twilight Awesomeness (and other things I talk about!)

Dudes You'll Never Guess!
I saw the Twilight movie yesterday! (Jen was there too but she's not here now so I'll just tell you what I thought) I think it's the best book-turned-movie I've ever seen. They may not have cast it perfect (*coughJasperSUCKScough*) but over all they did really well (perfect Bella, really good Edward, Emse was taken straight from my head, etc... except Carlise... he looked to... sneaky I think, i don't I'm weird like that), I was majorly impressed! Actually I'm still on a little bit of a buzz from it. Edward was the casting that, orginally, worried me the most but from the first time he did that little half smirk half smile (I call it a smirkle but I couldn't expect you all to know that!) I knew he was perfect! I cannot wait for number 2! Also I kind of hope it comes out on a Saturday so I can go see the midnight showing... but if not there's gotta be a way to be up until four and still be at school by eight... oh right... it's called cofffee!
So anyway, you guys know Jen and I write fanfiction so I don't feel like a total nerd telling you this. I just finished my first multichaptered story on there. I've working on it for almost a year and it's 23 chapters long. It's called the Lioness Diaries and it's really loosely modeled after the Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot (like really loosely... like I used the same format and nothing else loosely) and I don't feel braggy telling you all this because I don't figure that many people read our blog, I love it. I think it's funny (I wrote it and it still makes me laugh)and original, and odd-in-cool-ish-way. It has (as of this morning) over 11000 hits and 106 reviews (all good, in case you were wondering) one reviewer wrote, and I quote, "It was an absolutely wonderful way to end the story. Very much looking forward to the sequel. Reading this always felt like listening to a friend tell her stories, something that I liked about it. Can't wait for the sequel!" I actually like hopped around in my desk chair for joy when I read that! it was so unbelievably nice (and it was from someone who's been reading since like the fourth chapter, so that made it extra nice).
I don't know I just wanted to talk for a while... I'm going to leave all my Christians friends with this (non Christians if you're offended by my faith you are on the wrong blog and this next part will probably freak you out so... sorry)
A verse in the Bible talks about the truth in love, in our society the emphasis of this verse has been shifted to the truth, I think the emphasis should be moved back to the love. The two most important commandments (and Jesus said this but I'm paraphrasing) Love the your GOD with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. Not tell your neighbor when they're screwing up any time they do so you should confront them about it. Confrontation has been made so much easier by technology, who needs to do awkward things face-to-face? Why not text or IM or throw it into the blog-o-sphere or email (Do you know how tacty it is to break-up/ confront anyone any of these ways? And yet people do it all the time... would it not kill you if someone broke up with you or hurt you online for everyone to see?)?
And now I leave you with a quote: "aspire to inspire before you expire".
Toodles (oh dear I just quoted HSM... I may therapy for this)

I Know Right?!

Hey ya'll --
We got another thought provoking comment. Now in it our anonymous friend said that her (possibly ex)friend was with the guy that had hurt her, which got me thinking. Now for every girl out there you will know what I am about to say and for you boys take notes. There is an unwritten, unspoken set of rules for girls (especially when it comes to each other). So I thought I could start the list and then all of you could help me in the comments (or correct me if you think I'm wrong). Here we go:
1) If a guy was a jerk to your friend there's a good chance he'll be a jerk to you, so don't make her mistakes... it'll hurt your relationship with her and it'll you in the end
2) Always keep "supplies" (come on ya'lls know just what I mean) in your purse/backpack at all times
3) Have an accountablity partner to keep you from making bad choices (this is the girl that can tell you if you're being a jerk with out you getting mad at her, she has to be someone you trust completely and who you can tell anything to and she'll take it to the grave... Jen's mine)
4) as mentioned, A relationship with a boy isn't worth your relationship with other girls (yes I mean plurally, if you hurt one girl chances are other girls will find out and take it very seriously)
5) Unless it's Halloween stay away from the fishnet stockings (there very few exceptions to this but I'm willing to admit there may be a few)
6) Chocolate is your friend, embrace it, get used to it
7) Everything in moderation (friends, fads, movies, junk food, everything everything)
8)Don't ever get a new hair cut/color right before picture day (esp. Senior pics!)

Well that's what I'll put out there and I'll give you a little dish while this. I'm writing a book about these rules. It's called the Laws of the Universe and I'm about finished with the first chapter. I know, right? Yaynes!

Speaking of 'I know, right?!' I was talking to my dad the other day and I said that and he told that he'd been wondering where I got that (I say it kinda a lot) and he'd finally figured it out. I got it from Flo (you know from the Progressive commerials?) and he's right! I totally didn't even realize that I picked it up from her, but those totally are my favorite commerials on TV right now (Wow, I know, I say it louder!... Or a big tricked out name tag) She's awesome!! Thought I'd throw that little bit of randomness in there fer ya.
Love to All, Like to Few -- Barry

PS once again un-edited, sorry I'll work on that...

So weird

Howdy --
I was reading our comments (fine comment)on Jen's last post and it was really interesting because the person said some really deep stuff (that was just slightly on the mean-ish side) but then they sent it anonymously. Like I appreciate what he (or she) said but why go anonymous? It just seemed so weird to me (hence the name of the post). In any case Jen talked about drama. And I wanted to coattail that and throw my two-cents in (as if I could ever help it!). I think that drama is everywhere. And that we all start it (hopefully by accident but I fear not), I don't think Jen was implying otherwise, and I wish that there was a way for people, girls in particular, to distance ourselves from this. I think it's time to make that choice. The choice to not start stuff and if someelse starts it to just step back. Another thing our anonymous reviewer mentioned was a thing with boys, now ladies I will not pretend to be an authority on boys (God and all of you know I am not) however I will say this: If boys are hurting your relationship with other girls, cut them out. They aren't the support system you're going to fall back on when they ditch you. And so before I move onto the more fun random bits I'll leave ya'll with this. Arms are for hugging, boys are for kissing, sluts are for dissing and friends are for when the boy is kissing the slut and all you really need is a hug.
Now that I'm done being deep (or semi-deep, this is only a blog after all) I'll tell you the reason I haven't been in a hundred and tweleve thousand years: I'm on vacation!! Woohoo! I'm in the lovely and sunny Florida, and have been since Nov. 2nd! I leave to come home tomorrow (so if you're missing me terribly hold on the wait is almost over!! haha kidding please don't think I'm an egomaniac!). I've had a wonderful time here but I miss my family and friends (HI Caleb and Jess and everyone else!) and so I'm happy to be going home too. While I here I got the most awesome amazing beautiful winter coat of all time! It's Roxy, and pink, and omigosh it's awesome! yay! I also bought... well pretty much nothing else (I blew all my money on the coat)but I did look at... well I guess we didn't shop much! I know right... so weird (thought I'd throw that in again fer ya'll). It was, and I'm not even kdding, 90 degrees here yesterday (and again today, right now actually, I just checked)!! It was amazing, like being inside and oven, and I can't say I'm terribly partial to a blazing heat. But it's all even out because I hear this Monday there is to be an amazingly huge storm at home that I'll be back just in time for... I know... yay.
Well I do suppose I've chattered enough. Comment away (and leave you name) and there's a decent chance one of us will respond to it in someway (sounds fun right? right?).
Love to Love Ya'lls
Ben
PS I'll be editing this shortly but fer now I'm posting it straight from my brain (in other words sorry about the errors/anyplace that doesn't make sense)

10.31.2008

Refreshed!

Hey everyone! Jen here... Sorry about that last post- very angst and stupid of me. I have no idea why I wrote all that stuff anyhow! It is gone now... so if you haven't read it- you're lucky and I envy you! HA! Well everything is as slow as molasses and I think I am in a rut right now. I fell in by mistake but I realize that part of my problem was that I cared too much about myself to think about other people. Somehow for some reason that is unknown, it wound up hurting myself. Hm. Sort of like 'Live by the sword, die by the sword.' I am glad that everything has opened my eyes though. There is always a silver lining.

Right now I am in Biology. Oh Joy! I just took the exam: EASY! Ha! I thought exams were supposed to be horrifying and so far, in all my classes, not one to fear yet! I am looking forward to the next semester- we are halfway there! YAHOOS! Well I enjoy most of my school, it is just the drama I hate. Most of the people who I talk to say they hate it too, but they are the source of it!! Idiots! No, if you are reading this, it isn't you, just someone else.

I really want cheesecake right now. Mm. That sounds delicious, scrumcious (sp?), and perfect way to end a bad month. Oh by the way.... HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I am supposed to be Isabella from Twilight after she is changed. Barry did an awesome job dying my hair brown, and I even am wearing 2 shiny vampire teeth (evil chuckle from the back). I am so bored and I hope all of your guys' day is better than mine! Chow!

Nothing Interesting to Name This Post (sorry)

Aloha People Who Read My/Our Blog --

It's a weird, strange, freakish type of five days. But most of the baddness has been for Jen (unfortunately) and so I won't tell you about it. Though I will tell that any prayers you send out to either of us are be-yond highly appreciated. It's hard to cover your friends' backs you know but when, in the Bible, God speaks of Spiritual armor he covers everything except your back, which is where your Christian brothers and sisters belong. I'm doing my best but the more the better, you know?

Any way about my last couple of days. On Friday I went to the football game (in the rain *sigh*) and woohoo WE WON! Go #3 who scored the last touch down (I know like no one's number and even if I did know thhe name that went with that number I wouldn't say it online!)! So we have another game this Friday and I want to go. But I have to work. Which is sad. And I can't skip work to go. Which is also sad. But the reason I can't skip is that I'm going to go to Florida for a week in November. Which is happy. On Saturday I... can't remember what I did during the morning but at night I went to Worldveiw Weekend. It was so so cool. I got to see Ken Hamm (like KEN HAMM!!) speak, you have no idea who he is so I'll link you to the site he works with (along with many many other very smart people who believe in literal Biblical creation) , look around on there a bit, it's impressive. On Sunday there was churchin the AM, my cousin hung with me in the middle and then youth at night. We watched the new Ben Stein movie Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed, it's really good, he interviews a lot of scientists that believe in Darwin's evolutionary theory (smart smart men) and basically asked them about what they believe about the origin of species and none of them had a sensible answer (seriously "piggy-backed on crystals?" where'd the crystals come from?). And that was my weekend! How was you weekend readers? Please feel free to tell me. Or give me you feed back about what you believe about the beginning of th Universe and why! I'm not promising to believe whatever you say but I promise to, at the very least, think about it.
Wow that was the least random post from me thus far... sorry if it dissappoints you! I'll try to be more outta my mind next time but my straight jackets at the cleaners so...
Toodles!!

Less Depressing (a very mcuh more to this sites general theme!)

Hola everybody! -- Barry
Sorry about the major gap in postings this crazy little thing called life got in our way! *lesigh*
Anyway on from crazy things (well probably not but you can hope), there's an election coming up and in Jen's last bolg she asked you about who you were voting for. Know how many responses she got??? ZERO! That's pathetic and sad and... *sigh* (sorry I say *sigh* a lot even when I'm writing non-blog type things, I always feel melodramtic but whatever sorry if it bugs you). In any case, if you won't tell me (us) what you think I'll tell you what I think. GO MCCAIN AND PALIN 2008! NOBAMA!!! OBAMINATION!! hahaha sorry I'm like seriously anti-Obama, he bugs me. Also he's smooth and it'd scare me to have a smooth President, like it'd scare me to have a smooth boyfriend, because you'd never know if you thought what you thought or if he made you think you think what you think, make sense?
Moving on, my life's been good lately... a little bit nutso what with all my ankle stuff and arranging my trips (yep plural) to Florida this year. I get to go once for a week in November and for about three weeks in Feburary, with is awesome to me because if I stop homeschooling next year I might only get to go for a week or less from 2010 on into the entire rest of my life (sad no?). Also Christmas is coming soon and I'm trying to plan my friends and my (semi)annual Christmas bash. This year we're doing a movie-a-thon of all of our Christmas favorites and the not-so-secret-Santa (because we can't keep it secret but don't want to just call it Santa)gift exchange. I love the hols I think they're awesome! It's so fun it starts at like Halloween and then straight through until the first of the new year, *happysigh*, only problem is that I have to get gifts now (like purchase them, I don't mind receiving!lol) and I never know what to give people! We haven't even drawn yet but I still have no clue what I'm going to get whomever I draw! Worse than not know what to get my N.S.S.S.F. (not-so-secret-Santa Friend) is that I have no idea what to get my best guy friend! I was thinking a CD (mix of course because I never buy whole CD's anymore) but I don't know I got him one a coupla years back that I think he really liked but I don't his musical tastes as well now, I just don't know! I've gotten him to good of presents in the past, I just can't top them (for his last birthday I got him these wicked awesome drumsticks, then last Christmas... well last Christmas I thought he stopped liking me so I got him nothing, the B-day before that I got him a hat signed by several players on the Detriot Tigers, including his favorite, and the Christmas before that was the mix CD, so see hard to measure up to)! I don't know, he'll probably like what ever I get him but I want him to like it because of what it is too, not just because of who it's from. I'm whining like a chick...
Wait no I don't say negative things about the female gender anymore so I take that back. I'm reading a book right now about how women have lost sight of the purpose we were created for, it's called Fight Like A Girl and I'm like four chapters in so I'll let you know how it is once I finish it. I'm doing a lot of reading as far as Bible studies right now, and I've got to say I'm loving it! It gives you just a generally better veiw on life and your role in it over all. I've also read a book recently called For Young Women Only which is about guys. And the ladies that wrote the book base pretty much everything they say on what guys said (in an anonymous national survey) and what the Bible says (the two don't always see eye to eye you understand), I've got to say I was fascinated and am now trying to practice some of the things I've read. For example, it talks about how visual guys are and how that's not their fault, it's the way they're wired to be, so dressing slutily (word?) isn't just disrespectful to yourself but to them too, so I've been trying to dress really modestly (rather this extreme than the other, though I never ever ever was the other extreme even a little to my knowledge).
toodles!

Cause We're the students who don't do anything (much)

Hi-- sorry about the blankness. My computer has been randomly like freaking out on my lately!
http://www.youtube.com/v/7qbawjbE_W8"> http://www.youtube.com/v/7qbawjbE_W8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350">
if that comes out just gibberish I'm sorry it was supposed to enmbed my first ever youtube video on here. Also if you followed my advice on youtube and came here afterward then go you you impressionable person!
I really am very babble prone today (but what else is new you know?) so please forgive me that.
Jen is drum major and an over-acheiver and all kinds of other crazy things so please forgive her that she doesn't blog much (also her internet stinks).
And now that I'm done groveling I'll move onto the goodbyes (sorry gotta motor!) <3 -- B

Be-YOND Busy!

A-Yo (yep like the Fonz) -
I'm sorry about the sad pathetic amount of updates lately, it's been a little crazy what with school starting and all. Wow Jen's school is sounding really hard (almost painful) this year but mine's doing quite well. I've a lot to do this year but with my foot keeping me from doing some stuff it's like "What else have I got to do?" so I'm working pretty hard.
I'm trying to do an obscene amount of math this year, I want to review Algebra, do all of Algebra 2, and get Geometry done and let me tell you I SUCK at Geometry (seriously I could, and would, do 5 lessons of Algebra a day if it meant not having to do Geometry)!
Anyway on from the boring stuff to more interesting things...
My parents are having their
!!!!!!20TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!
Yay, Daddy and Mommy (yeah I do really still call them that, shut up)!! Who says couples that get married can't be happy? Well whoever they are, they're wrong! My parents have an awesome marriage and are a really good example of what marriage should be like, not always pretending all's well but always loving one another no matter what crap's going on. So YAY them! Anyway, they're taking a little mini-vacation in celebration going to the lovely place that they had their honeymoon, waaaayyy up north to Mackinaw. I will (of course) be left home for this (by force and by choice, seriously not my place to be there AT ALL (eww...)), so I don't know if there will be any updates from me next week, sorry to any and all loyal readers/commenters (wishful thinking I suppose).
Have any of you ever had a weird music craving? You know woke up one morning and thought 'wow I really want to jam out to some folk rock!' Well I have (not folk Rock, which I actually do like so be nice to it) but I sat to type this up and thought 'the soundtrack of today is.... a little Classical I think' usually if i thought this the world 'Classical' would be followed by the word 'Rock' (if it was used at all) but no, not today. And weirdly I'm really digging this classical music, it make me feel slightly more relaxed (which I need I've been feeling really crappy lately, like weirdly on the verge of tears all the time, it's driving me nuts!) and you all should really be thanking classical music right now because it is definitely at least part it's fault that I'm now a lot less cranky (and thusly you're all reading a much less gloom and doom post). So... WooHoo Classical Music!!



And now I leave you with this icon (even though Jen's been loading icons into the side board and I don't know how to, darn her....)


And as I said since she's beating me at icons I will add a second one ...





I feel that the second one is rather an anthem for our lovely little blog here...

Cheesecake--Jen

Why hello there!
I am currently waiting for 3 very long videos to load so I can watch them. Having slow dial up makes me feel vulnerable!

Anyhow... I just made cheesecake and I smell it! By the way, that is one of my favourite deserts! Particularly strawberry cheesecake... yummy! It is best made in West Virginia... I think. I never had it in very many states, but there it's quite tasty.

I have decided that if anyone needs advice or prayer or someone to talk to, you can always post a comment and I (and most likely) accompanied by Barry, will do our best on advising/praying/talking to you about it.

On a lighter note, I get to go Snorkeling! We own a huge boat and I am going to the Caribbean! Okay that was a lie. We own no boat, and we aren't going to the Caribbean. Although if I were offered I would love to go (except for the fact that sharks are there... scary!). I am afraid that I am going to get eaten by a ruthless shark... If I do, I told you so!

Have you ever seen someone who has an annoying smile? I am not sure if I have, but when I do I will let you know. There is a picture in a magazine of a girl who has an annoying smile and it is just sitting there. Smiling at me. Grr... I think I am going to close that magazine now (it's my sister's magazine... not mine). There. No more annoying smile chick!

I am not tired, and therefore not as random as normal but I just want to say this. AHHHHH!

That felt good. There are many reasons for my AHHHHH!, and I will not bore you with them since you would get bored and not come back to read more! Aren't I nice?

I have 4 and 1/2 minutes left for the longest one- which means I have a whole half hour to do nothing. All you high speeders out there: I envy you!

Barry has fast Internet... urg! I envy you Barry!

I think I am going to surf (very slowly) on the net. Peace out dudes! (That's how people from a few decades ago said goodbye)

Jen!

Vote Swayyer -- Barry

'Lo --

Yay! My first solo post... ho-rah!

Moving on...

Well Jen may not want to sway the vote but I sure do! Go Anybody-But-Obama-or-Hilary 2008!! Sorry, I'm not really a rebuplican or a democrat but... well yeah I guess I actually am, GO REPUBLICANS!

Moving on (again)...

Sorry randomness prevails but it's really late so please cut me some slack. I just read Jen's post and she talked about pink so that got me thinking: why when we add white to blue it's called "light blue", and when we add white to green it's called "light green" and (if you were to) add white to yellow or orange it'd be "light yellow or orange" (probably though I guess I never really thought to name those colors) but if you add white to red it's not "light red" but pink? Why does red and white get it's own name? Why don't all colors and white get their own totally different words? Like why isn't blue and white shnerp or some nonsense? It just seems unfair is all. Sorry just made me wonder.

Other things I wonder --

+if you drop a cat, is it kitty litter?

+why does "sour" cream have an expiration date?

+whose mean idea was it that the word "lisp" had an "s" in it?

+why do "fat chance" and "slim chance" mean the same thing? Aren't fat and slim opposites?

+how are there self-help "groups"?

++ okay I admit it I may have gotten a few (or all) of these things from http://www.geocities.com/hollywood/makeup/6353/ponder.html and you should go there for more because it really does make you wonder!

All of these seriously funny things make me think of one of my favorite comedians. His name is Demetri Martin and he's SO funny, no really google him now! Well actually finish reading my post and then google him but at some point do google him.

You know the more you write "google him" the dirtier it sounds. Google him, goggle him, sorry I'll quit now but really just say it over and over the more you say it the grosser it becomes...

Moving on (againX2)....

As much as Jen hates the color pink I hate inane TV shows for teens/kids! Seriously iCarly, Hannah Montana, Suite Life of Zach and Cody, Degrassi, Secret Life of the American Teenager, they're all so dumb. And even sadder than the fact that they make these shows is the fact that I, personally, watch or have watched mostly all of them! I mean honestly! Just because something is aimed toward my demographic does not mean it suddenly becomes mandetory veiwing, but it sort of does... odd that. (Please if you're in love with any or all of these shows don't be mad at me, just really look at the show you'll see how stupid it is).

Well I suppose that I rambled enough now and should probably go but I wish to leave with an icon, you may feel free to copy it off you should like...
Hasta -- Barry

1:59 In the Morning--Jen

Hello there,
It is in the wee hours of the morning here and I am not tired and neither is Barry. In fact we were just drawing. Strange huh? Well it is for me. I have no artistic abilities whatsoever so drawing is extremely frustrating and irritating. I think that it may be because what I want to draw, doesn't look right at all and therefore the struggle with the pencil continues with no hope for me.
Ice cream is a wonderful invention. Whoever invented it, please post a comment. I would very much like to thank you for the wonderful dreams you have allowed me to have (because of the eaten ice cream I think...)!
There are many things I have dreamt about that are quite odd to most people, but to me they are fun! In fact, just last night, I had a strange dream about falling off a cliff (getting pushed actually), and climbing on this wooden plank above shark infested water (okay it was just one shark- but it was still scary).

I know this has nothing to do with dreams, but I (Jen, not Barry) think the color pink is almost very repulsive. Weird isn't it? I think it is just so... Blah-bimbo-barbie-esque.... Eww.

Have you ever met someone who seems like a nice person, but when you think about it, they are just faking being nice so you won't hate them? Yeah, well it is annoying isn't it? If you don't know someone like that, well... it's annoying. I know someone like that. Today, actually, they were acting like a dude bimbo (if that exists- acting dumb to get attention). It was irritating. He's also a pig. I wont explain that but girls out there- Never go for them no matter the looks. They will just dump you like last weeks trash. And to you guys out there- don't be pigs.

I hope you all don't mind my- erratic randomness. Being both bored and (yes I cave) tired, my mind is just jumping around very quickly.

Picture frames have always seemed like a weird thing to me. They are just some boxy looking thing that holds your pictures. Just use paperclips people! What a waste of money! Well- I have a few exceptions:
Wedding pictures
Those stupid family pictures (I never go willingly)
Graduation pictures
I think that is about it. People can just use magnets and stick them on their fridge.

That is another thing. People are tricked so easily. Not like tricked-against the law tricked- I mean like pay so much more money than necessary kind of tricked. We (in America at least) waste so much money on silly, silly things... Okay I can't say anything horrible because I do it too.

What do you guys (well and gals) think about how we perceive beauty? Like the whole what's hot, and what's not kind of deal. What is beauty to you? Inner, outer, both, neither? I will not say a word until I hear from you so I don't sway the vote kind of thing. Oh! That reminds me- What are your ideas on the election? Who's your candidate and why? I have my ideas but the first person to tell us gets some of our cookies (virtual thanks through a post)! Aren't you hungry?

I am guessing some of you actually want to go eat now (our cookies are better!). Well I think Barry wants to make a post. Now it is 2:33 AM. Wow.
Goodnight- or rather Good morning!
Cheerio! Or should I say, Fruit Loop?
Jen!!! :)

Post Numero Uno!

Hola!
Wow three spanish words in two sentences and neither of us are even remotely spanish or mexican or any native spanish speaking people at all. Weird. Well as mentioned we are Jen and Barry. Jen - the lovable, quirky, blonde-ish haired chick with unbelivably long eyelashes (she has no idea I just wrote that!) and Barry - a unique brunette, with green eyes, and a pention for jewelry and odd sayings t-shirts (I think I do know I just wrote that). We've been friends for ages and have an oddly large amount of opinions on things a lot of people never even think to think about. We love to make up words (like incest-pervastion) and sayings (we can't think of any right now, we'll get back to you) and (if you're Barry) playlists (because I have no real musical abilities).
We've also decided that what this really truely needs is some video content (more than likely nothing above a "G" rating but they'll still be funny). Our answer to this thought is as follows:

We find said video vastly amusing and hope you will as well, her name for them was "The Olympics" because we think those buns and that sound are stereotypically oriental (no offense meant, we just thought it was funny).

Later People of the Internet!
