"When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy."

I love that quote. Go see if you can find who originally posted it. If you do know, then don't tell who it is, but you can tell that you know. Very much like bragging, but not. For those of you who are concered of that. Guess what that reminds me of? A few of you should be able to.

Now, one of the reasons that I put off getting a blog is that I was afraid that I would not update it regularly. Now that is coming true. All my fault I know. Except for that small part that is bloggers. I am attributing the lack of updates and lack of comments to the fact that blogger is making it 'you-must-be-a-genius-to-figure-this-out' sort of thing.

So, before you all ask, Christmas around was pretty good. I had some fun. I actually can relax for about the first week or so of this break, before I have the most dreaded thing of all to work on... yes! that would be homework! And this paticular project just happens to be 10% of my grade... ya, I like it even less than anyone out there reading it.

Currently, I just sat around all day and did nothing. Nothing at all. Well, I knitted and watched my sister. But that was it. And it was boring. Really, really boring. Thankfully I think that I have plans for the next few days. I desperately hope so. I would hate for a repeat of today.

I was reading a book, one of the three that I am reading (finally found some good books to read!) which happens to be The diary of Anne Frank. It's intresting. Especially since I don't have to analyze the whole thing bit by bit. I mean it is fun to be all analitical, but sometimes you just need a break.

Basically, that's been all that's gone on for the past little while. So wrapping this up with Happy New Year.

Stress among other things.

I was going around checking out everyone's blog's, and then the thought occured to me. Maybe, just maybe I need to update mine. Without adding a bunch of quotes to make it longer. I think I might have some stuff to talk about too. You know with my spy cell actually up and running. And this is how it goes...

I was thinking today, that, I just don't have enough time. Which really stinks. And by time, I truly mean, time in day light hours. Why would such a thing be important? Because if it is just me walking my dog I prefer to do it in daylight. And I've been busy alot of the time after school. In which case, she doesn't get walked. Bad, I know. I'm working on that. Homework, and making money usually take up my time right after school. I wanted to change that... so, I'm thinking I'll give up one of my paper routes. Which'll be hardish on me, but I'll live. There are better ways of making money. Actually, I'd like to go into resturant business. NOT cooking, as a waitress. See how that turns out. However, as of now, that is not possible. Dreaming I'm told though is a good thing.

Now, I'm sure you all so desperately want to hear about my spycell, nevermind that most of the people who will read this were there. It's somewhat of becoming a tradition to bake everytime before the cell starts. And eat. Laura's mom makes good lasanga. Yup, though the chocolate chip muffins didn't turn out so well... Matt still wants us to make blueberry ones. Can someone help drill it into his head, that THERE NOT IN SEASON. Meaning, I can't get them. On to the actual cell. I could find what I had previously meant to do, so I ran to Laura's computer grabbed and email that sounded good, and read it, then got everyone's opinion. Then told them about the whole option of having a book study thing. They seemed to like the idea. It's going to be very interesting though... depends where I decide to go on it. And which book I could do.

After that we went, and watched Over the Hedge, after missing the first ten minutes. Better than I thought it would be, but still not the greatest movie ever. Not something I'd want to watch again. However, at the end there was a good quote,

"You know we woulda given it all you, it's what families do.
Really, it woulda been nice to know that in the being.
That's bad communication, also runs in families."

Something to that effect any way. After that, while we were waiting for rides, we listened to a song called 'Alice's Resteraunt'. Except that it barely had anything to do with Alice. Apparently it was used as a protest agaisnt the Vietnam war.

On other things, in English today we started Macbeth. Sounds... intresting. Lindoff gave us about a twenty minute lecture on the book, explaining things, making us take notes. And we started to watch the movie. He's not wasting anytime. Another thing, I would hate to have to play a role as one of the witches. I really, really don't like them.

I've run out of things to say, so goodnight.
