Posted Sat, 10/03/2009 - 22:30 — secret_life_and...Okay, here's the new thread. But yes, that is a very long time. We always had something to talk about though, it was great. It has like 1,900 replies. At the most only like 100 are from other people. 
I hate it too. I'm sorry
One of my friends and I think that one of our other friends is faking how much her ankle hurts. She was wearing one of those brace things on it and on Wednesday she said it really hurt and she was gonna start using crutches. So now she's using them and every time she takes a step on her foot she says "ow." She's having surgery on it, but we think she's over dramatizing the pain for attention.

I hate it when people over dramatize or over act something. It's like, we know it's not real so just get over it already. What did she do anyway?

Me too. I do it a lot when I explain things, but I don't do it with pain. I have no idea what she did. Some of us think she's faking the pain. She walked fine 3 days ago and now it "hurts" when she walks.
How was your day?

Hm, so it just started hurting? Didn't you say she was having surgery on it? My day was pretty good, aside from the complete and utter exhaustion I had today from going to that movie last night. It was completely worth it though. I've been hanging out with friends since like 6:30 until a few minutes ago.

She's having it sometime in December. She probably needs it, but we think she's overdoing the pain. Does that make sense? That's cool. Yesterday was a good day and today will be awesome (hopefully).

Yeah, I get what you mean. What's going on today? I have nothing going on today, well at the moment anyway. I did, but the plans got cancelled because of other things they had going on that they couldn't get out of. So I'm working on cleaning my room, which is like 1/2 done because I reorganized my closet so it's getting better slowly. Then once I get done with that I think I'm going to work out some. Fun Saturday huh?
I might live in a small town, but everyone is always working or out of town.

Two of my friends and I went to the place I wanna have my birthday party. It was SO much fun. I hate cleaning my room, that's why it's so dirty. Definitely a fun Saturday
My best friend works like 4/5 days a week from 5-8, so we never do stuff together anymore. It sux.

I just don't clean my room because I can't find stuff when it's clean, which is like exactly opposite. That stinks, I'm sorry.

Same for me. And I hate cleaning it, so I don't. But I have to if I want to re-do my room, so my friend is gonna help me clean it. Thanks.
I hate it, but I have to get over it. Having a job really gets in the way of having fun.

I always redo my room, but my parents won't help so I do it by myself, it's hard.
It does which is why I'm glad I don't have a job right now, but I need another one.

I painted it when I was 6 and I'm tired of it. It looks like a little kid room. I just want to repaint it because I'm tired of the color. I can't rearrange things too much because my room is too small. Have you already had a job? I won't be getting one til the summer I think.

I've painted my room so many times it's ridiculous. My room is pretty big but there aren't too many ways to arrange the furniture in it though. I have a job, they just aren't open right now so I need to find another one.

Just once for me. I want to re-do it so badly. Mine is pretty small. I wish I could move to our guest room, but it's either too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter. Oh. We have a restaurant here that's temporarily closed. We were sad when we saw they were.

A lot of places are closed around here right now, but I don't really care, I'm used to it. My parents were trying to figure out something about our cruise today and they called me into the room and asked me. Of course, I knew the answer.
Mine isn't really small, it's just crowded with an oversized bed. 
Oh I know how that goes, my first room a certain spot on the wall would get wet when the snow melted in the spring.

Are they closed because of money problems? I have a twin bed. Same one I've always had. I really wish I could get a bigger one, but it probably wouldn't fit. That's annoying. I've never had that problem, I don't think. There's a spot on my floor where I can lay down and hear what people are talking about in our dining room.

♥ RIP Miss Kristy. 4/29/69-5/6/09 ♥
Nope, they just close down every year for part of the year just because it's slower in the winter. I had a twin bed for years now I have like a full or something its like a twin bed plus a half of another twin bed.
At my grandma's house you can sit in her room and hear the voices in the basement. Wait, what was the problem you've never had? Sorry I forgot. I think I responded at like 2 in the morning so I remember nothing of what I posted last night.

Oh. I think there are a couple places here that do that. That would be a full bed. I wish I had one of those. You said that your wall got wet when the snow melted then I said I'd never had that happen.

Oh right, ha, my room now doesn't do that now though. But it gets insanely hot during the summer. Like I have to keep a fan running in my room all the time. That's just because the two walls are facing the sun all day long and when it's like 85 out and humid, not a good combination. I love my bed, it's big and I love it.

Mine gets kinda hot too. My ceiling fan is always on high during the summer. If not, it gets a little too hot. Apparently we used to lay on floor and nap in the sunlight when I was little. I want a big bed, but my stupid room won't allow for it. I guess it could, but there would little space left. My mom and I just came back from driving and she scared the cr.ap out of me. I had to start braking hard or I would have hit a car and she started screaming at me to brake. It scared me and a couple minutes later I made her switch with me. Then we went to Starbucks and I started having a panic attack.

It's ridiculous how hot my room gets. When you walk in you're like woah, and when you walk into the hallway it's like a cool breeze hits you.
I still have quite a bit of space, but if it was my old room it would take up basically my whole room. I'm sorry. I hated driving with my parents, well not really because they never did that kind of stuff. Now when I drive and they're with me they just don't say anything because I've been driving on my own since September and last year I drove to school on my own every year.

That sux. I'm sorry
I hate driving with them too, but I have no choice. I won't be driving on that road again for awhile. I wish I could drive to school in the morning but 1) we take the van and I haven't driven it yet and 2) we take 2 of our neighbors and I'm only allowed to drive with 1 non-family member in the car. So it'll be awhile til I can do that.

I had a permit that allowed me to drive to school alone. Now it just doesn't matter, if I want to go somewhere I'm gone.
I hate when time changes in the winter. It gets dark so early. Like right now it feels like it should be seven but its only 4:30.

Lucky! I kinda wish I could do that. I need to get better at driving first though. I hate it too. It got dark around 4:30/5ish here. I had to take Dexter on a walk today and I went earlier rather than later so it didn't get dark while I was out.

That's what it did here. It's 5:30 and it's dark out, damn. Plus once the sun goes down it gets colder and I just don't like that. Having a license has its benefits.

It was dark by 5:30 here. I don't really mind the cold too much. Sometimes I do, but not all the time. It really does. May 28th I'll be allowed to drive by myself.

I hate cold, mainly because it's always cold during winter around here, except this year. Like usually winters the high is 10 the whole winter. So far it's been 30's-40's.
Remind me closer to your birthday because I'll forget to tell you happy birthday.

Geez, that is cold. It's usually in the 30s and 40s for us. Sometimes colder. I think it'll be colder this year because of how cold it is already here some days. Okay, I will. It's February 28th though. You can get your license when you're 16 and 3 months here. But you have to have had your permit for 9 months too.

It's been really warm this year. There aren't any leaves left on the trees, but the grass is still green. It's only snowed like two times but that's just because it didn't stick. Wow. Here you have to have your permit for 6 months and be 16. Plus you have to have so many hours of driving time with your parents.

We have some leaves left. Hopefully they're almost done. My dad has had to pick up leaves like 4 times. The grass is still green here too. No snow yet. We have to have 45 hours of driving and I think 10 have to be at night time. I'm getting better at driving, thankfully. Hopefully I'll be pretty good soon. I need to start driving our van too. That thing scares me.

We never do anything with our leaves.
We're supposed to get some this week, maybe, I think. I'm sure you drive just fine. 
I love driving, all the time.

So they just sit there all winter? I hope is snows in like January. I've always wanted a white Christmas, but it hasn't happened yet. Thanks. I'm not too bad, but I'm certainly not the best. I bet you're fine too. Do you have to pay for gas or insurance?

Kind of, it's so windy sometimes they just blow away. There's always a white Christmas here, but I'm never here for it. I'm hoping it snows though for Christmas. I have to pay for gas, but not insurance. Thanks.

We have a lot of leaves blow into our yard because we live at the bottom of the street (it's a cul-de-sac). Do you go somewhere for Christmas? We go to grandparent's houses after Christmas usually. I think I've always been home for Christmas. Andrew and I have to pay half the insurance and all the gas for our car.

Yeah, we go visit my grandparents, they don't get snow there. I had to pay for part of my car. I used to be home for Christmas a few times. We went to one grandparents' house for Christmas until my grandpa passed, then we just stayed home, then we started going to the other grandparents'.

That's cool. We go to my dad's parents usually the Saturday after Christmas for our annual gift exchange and to just hang out. Then we go to my mom's parents some other time during break for a couple days. My parents bought the car and they pay for it.

The only down part is it's the only time off so I can't see my friends, but oh well, when I leave town it's to go see family. And for me, family is the most important thing. I just have tomorrow and Tuesday, we get the rest of the week off. Random fact of the day for you, I just figured this out looking something up because I was bored, my cruise I'm going on, the boat is the 2nd largest ship in the world. The only one that's bigger than it is the new ship the cruise line has that has it's first trip on the 5th. I'm trying to get my parents to do that one next year.

I'm glad Wednesday is a whole day off, if it wasn't it would be for me anyway. We have to be somewhere by like noon, so I wouldn't have an option. Freedom of the Seas. It's massive. It's like two times the size of the ship I was on last year.

I kinda want to skip Wednesday, but I don't think it'll work. That's cool. We get out at 12:45. Those ships are massive. The new one Oasis is like 7 cities in one. It looks SO cool.

I want to go on that one next year. I'm like begging my parents to take us on that one next December.
It's something my grandparents can do so I bet they go along with it. I love how big they are, you kind of forget that you're in a boat in the middle of nowhere. Part of that is because of the size but I think the other part is there is so much to do when you're on it. They have activities planned all day and some into the night, then every night you have a time for dinner and then if you're like my family you go to the show then you do whatever. For me, I'm going to be busy running around with other people my age.

Hm, not really. The only warm, fun place I've been is Florida and you've got the main ones listed. But then though, anything is fun when you live around here.
I'm just excited because I can't wait to get out of this town for a while. That and I need some sun. I'm so white.
