I'm So Wimpy!

Headaches are the worst. I would rather be throwing up sick than have a headache like i do now!...Yeah, that's how much i hate them! They just throb and bug you and you can't put in headphones and listen to music cuz it'll make it hurt even WORSE! I rarely get headaches, but when i do...it HUUURRTS!!! But i HATE taking pills, so i'm just gonna sit here and suffer until the pain goes away. That's pretty much how i deal with every injury i get. i just wait out the pain...with an occasional complaint here and there. It's so funny though, because when i complain to my friends about it hurting, they're all like "Well go take some aspirin!" and i just say "NO! i HATE pills!"...then they think i'm all tough and stuff...but i'm not. I'm a little wimp. Wimpy Kirstin...that's me!

I wonder if i talk too much. Tonight i wasn't being talkative because of my throbbing headache and people kept asking why i wasn't talking. So that pretty much told me that i talk alot. I kinda liked being quiet tonight...i felt like an observer, just listening to everybody else talk and play around, and there i am just sitting there all quiet. lol i think i'm gonna be a little more quiet from now on...but not so quiet that i appear emo...which i'm not, i can assure you. So yeah, peace out.

Jo

Musica

I've been listening to my iPod ALOT lately. I never used to use it at all hardly! Maybe the teenage years are finally kicking in. Music is so awesome, to listen to AND to play! I've just recently started playing the guitar and piano again! I wanna learn the violin, too! My parents say that they have no idea where me and my brothers got our music skills from, because neither of them play anything! haha! I guess it's just because we tried and wanted to learn to play instruments! It was either Jake or me who got the first instrument when we were kids. I remember getting a tiny keyboard, but i can't remember if Jake had anything before that! But yeah, those years were the start of the music in our household! Since then, Jake learned how to play the drums, the guitar, the bass, and the piano. Ryan learned how to play the guitar, the bass, the piano, the violin, and the drums. I learned how to play the piano and the guitar. I'm definitely the less musically apt one. Oh well.

Owchie Wa Wa...or Ow Chihuahua. Either one.

I think my creativity has gone out the window lately. Except when it comes to drawing, because now i can draw things spontaneously and they turn out looking good! But still, i feel so old and boring (i only added "old" for effect).

Don't you hate how when you wake up from a nap, you're more tired than you were BEFORE the nap?...Is it just me that feels that way? I'm not sure, but oh well.

We had a soccer game today. It was by far the most painful soccer game i've ever played in my life! I never gotten really hurt...i mean lay-on-the-ground-because-it-freakin-hurts-too-much-to-get-up hurt! But today, that happened, and now i've got a huge bruise forming on my shin. By the way, i was wearing shin guards...and i got hurt UNDER the shin guards. Make any sense? I didn't think so. PLUS i had to be benched (that was of my own choice, because of my stupid leg)...i was gonna try really hard not to get benched once throughout the whole season, but today, i had to!

I feel like David in "David After Dentist", because i really feel like i could ask "Is this real life?" (I just woke up from a nap)

......Is this real life?

I loathe bugs.

Jo

GLU :D

Field day was the most fun i had in a long time!

I'm extremely sore from holding 3 people on my back yesterday.

I'm thinking i need to sleep some more.

GLU! (try and figure that one out!)

I have a huge bump/bruise on my leg from SOMETHING (idk what) that happened yesterday!

Julian Smith is hilarious.

Skinny jeans are disgusting on guys.

I wanna see Alice in Wonderland really bad.

Cramping Legs + Twister = Fail.

I need to stop biting my nails.

The world is round.

I wish i could think of the craziest thing i've ever done.

We have 17 chickens.

I should be more outgoing.

Soccer practice is in an hour and a half.

Jo

I'm A Little More Than Useless

This weather makes me feel morbid. I was saying some pretty morbid things last night, according to one of my best friends. But now i actually FEEL morbid. I just look outside, it looks morbid, so i feel morbid. Yeah....morbid.

What does morbid even mean? I mean, i just know it's something like, death-like. Hold on, i'm looking for the definition...Morbid: Suggesting an unhealthy mental state. ............LOL! yeah...thaaaat's me!

Anyways, yeah. i don't like this weather. At. all. Mainly because my soccer game got cancelled because of it, but still, it's so....dark...melancholy...MORBID! Yes, the weather has an unhealthy mental state. It's very troubled.

Ummmmm....i like the word mental. It sounds like an interesting word.

"Sure" should be spelled "Shur"...it makes more sense.

I want to see a beached whale before i die.

Self-image

Self-image is a big thing in today's society.

I never really thought much about it until last night at church when Mrs. Dooley was talking about it. Almost all teenage girls, or some guys (not sure, since i'm not a guy and all), at one point or another, have a bad self-image. Ever since i was about 12 or so i started getting a bad self-image. It all started in sixth grade because we went to a private christian school and i wanted to "fit in". That's when my self-image started going down the drain because i kept comparing my looks to other girls' looks. I still do that, but i never really noticed how much i did that until last night.

Mrs. Dooley said something that i've heard a thousand times, but it never clicked until last night. God sees us all as beautiful because HE made us. And it doesn't really matter how other people see us because God is the only really important one! I mean how pointless is it to spend your entire life trying to look like other people or trying to make yourself look better when God made you just the way he wanted you? I'm trying not to pick out every little thing i hate about myself anymore, because if God wanted it that way, then that's fine with me.

Sincerely,
Jo
