 Nothing like going 60 up Torrence with a police car behind you to brighten up your day! 

Everything is different now

  • Sep. 8th, 2008 at 9:05 PM

 My blog is clearly different, one of the main points being that I'm back. Another being that I'm different, I hope.  It's boring to be the same all the time, you know?  Not different:  I still do stupid things.  


A bit of randomness about bookclub )
Disaster Movie: 
I did not want to see it.  At all.  But I did want to hang out with all my old friends, so we went to the levee, chased the geese, bought tickets, hung around the candy shop, went to the theater, put all the armrests up in every row, and settled in.  Funniest thing ever.  the beginning is really stupid, but every single part with Juno in it is *excellent*

Click this cut, seriously.
What I did all that time I was away )

We Fight A Lot

  • Jun. 11th, 2008 at 12:46 AM

A few friends and I have started a blog in which we do naught but argue.  

'Tis loads of fun.

Yes, it is awesome.

Now I command you to go forth and comment!  Comment like the wind!

What do you do when you've got a group of people, some boats, and a lake?  

Have a party.
duh

It was awesome.  It had the ever essential snackage, tunage, and a massive, monumental breakup.

Snackage was really only okay though, 'cause I don't eat meat, and there were loads of hotdogs.  I lived the entire day on Fritos.  good fritos.

Tunage owned.  Not that we actually listened.

Oh yes, the good part.   Girl A was stood up by Guy A.  Girl A was already not happy with Guy A.  Girl A had a bit of a freak talked to Girl B (me) and had me break up with Guy A for her.  (I couldn't say no, 'cause I'd accidentally hit her with my paddle in the head and she bled EVERYWHERE).  BUT earlier, Girl A agreed to go out with Guy B.  Guy B knew about Guy A.  it was scandalous.  

And huge.  and Girl A now feels veddy nice.  

no, that wasn't the best part, though it was fun.  

(okay, I'm weird.  I sorta like breakups.  even my own.  they always feel like something good.  like you're right over a cliff of something great happening.)

The Best Part:  well, loads of little parts really.  Lots and lots of kayaking.  We put a whole in this giant raft and took ages fixing it.  There was a creepy canoe ride with the guy who wouldn't stop staring at me.  There were lots of people.  Loads of the girls were tanning, and the guys splashed them.

Yeah, it was awesome.  But it was cool, except for when my bikini was messed with, then it wasn't fun anymore.

BUT THEN WE WENT FOR A RIDE ON A TWO PERSON BIKE!  

so it had a happy ending.

 Just a note...

One of my friends is at the NATIONAL SPELLING BEE.  

Yeah, wow.

So just a shout out, 'cause we know she's gonna be amazing.

In fact she already *is* amazing.  She made the top 90 already!  AYAYAYAYAY!!! 

PEACE!

Field day has ownage.  Seriously.  And this year's ownage was uber awesome.

We had a peace rally.

It started right after the water balloon toss.  (our's broke in the air, *sigh* still awesome)  We were kicked off the roof of the announcer's thingy above our stands.  Which was fun.  

So then we walked around the field, gathering followers.  But sadly, some did not appreciate the wonder that is a people coming together to fight fighting, and to hit percussion instruments.  What could possibly be more important, more lifechanging than such an event?! 

We were then brutally attacked, and our signs were ripped to shreds.  But we valiantly perservered by belting out such classics as Give Peace a Chance, and Kumbaya.  

yes, it was awesome.

no, i would not do it again.

ever.


My house team came in dead last (as always!  woo!  takes skill to lose like us) but we dominated on the tug o war.  

TAKE THAT NEWMAN!

 Get ready for a rediculously long post for no reason.  With no cuts because it isn't working.  ahhh!  Which, obviously, is the BEST reason.  

Have you guys ever read Casey at the Bat?  One, it's a famazing poem about not thinking too much of yourself, becuase if you do you're bound to screw things up for everyone else, two, it's LONG.  I'm memorizing it for English, and I'm dead scared.  It's under the cut if you want to read it.
(Edit:  I'm annoyed, because the cut isn't working.  *rips out hair*)



And wait, there is more.  

Ages and ages and ages ago I was bored in one of my classes.  And I wrote this idiotic essay about why the human race sucks and it talks a lot about monkeys.  Don't judge me, it was a LONG time ago.  



Omc.  I was such a weird eleven year old.  I'm weirder now though, which is comforting, because people expect me to be weird.  I can do anything I want.  Anything.  Like, link arms with people and skip.  I did that today.

Or sing with the guy thats always on his balcony, yeah, I did that today as well.

It's aweome.


Er, yeah.  That's it. 

It's not alright.

  • May. 9th, 2008 at 10:02 PM

 How is it possible for humanity to live with itself?  How?  We pretty much suck.  We encourage the underdog, and then we slap him down.  When he tries to get up, he gets slapped down again.

How is it okay for humanity to ignore the fact that the homeless commit crimes just so they can get into prison?  Just because they want some shelter and food.

How is it okay for us to stand by when children in Haiti are eating mud so they aren't as hungry?

How are we supposed to be alright when we talk about never letting a holocaust happen again, but we ignore Darfur?

It's not okay, but none of us know how to stop it.  None of us know how to help.  

I don't know...I was just thinking.  I don't have a clue on how to help, because we may save the people in Darfur, and we may feed the children in Haiti and clothe those who need it, but humanity will always have issues, and there will always be people who just turn their backs and act like it's all okay.  

Contests

  • May. 5th, 2008 at 4:11 PM

 omc.

I won a Suite Scarlett thingy from Maureen Johnson!  That was WILDLY unlikely..

YAY!

Yes, I'm happy.  

Want to know what I don't think is fair about contests though?  How if you win once, chances are you won't win again.  Or if you don't get anything for a while, then chances are you won't EVER get anything...

I don't know.  Maybe there's a better way to do things, I just don't know what it is.

That was wildly anti-clamatic.

 Yeah, we're pretty much insane amazing.

Global Warming is Not Okay

  • Apr. 28th, 2008 at 4:54 PM

Okay, so there I was at the end of the day working on a project on global warming.  That's when my crap partner says "I dont' know why we have to do this anyway, its not like global warming actually exists."  

STOP.

REWIND.

PLAY.  

Global warming doesn't exist?  What rock has he been living under?  Of course it exists!  And if we don't do something soon there will be terrible floods, droughts,  (yeah I know, that part is weird), storms, even rolling blackouts!  Its like its out of some creepy movie.  Yeah, that's our future, a creepy movie.  

I'm all for thinking for yourself and coming up with your own opinions, I once wrote an essay on how we shouldn't have had to read a certain book.  But when faced with facts, I think you should just bow out gracefullly.

And he saw the facts, heck, he put the facts in a very nice powerpoint.  But er...yeah then.

Global warming is a problem.  

Rantage, OVER.  

REESE

Censorship is not made of awesome.

  • Apr. 27th, 2008 at 6:01 PM

 Can you tell a difference??  I'm sure you can, because ReeseSpeaks has moved!  Blogger was killing me, and I didn't enjoy posting over there.

Anyway, I have news!  I can't seem to stop myself when I have an idea.  This time it's all about censorship, and you know, fighting it.

Did you know Shel Silverstein has been challenged??  That guy who's fanciful poems we all know and love?  Sick?  Hug-o-War?  Where the Sidewalk Ends?  The Light in the Attic?  Falling Up????

That, my good friends, is pure crap.  So the other ninjas and I, (confused?  see invictusverbum.com), devised a pretty amazing plan.  

A blogosphere wide censorship fighting...thing.  We review banned books!  We rant on how censorship is eeeviiiillll!  And we have a very prettyful picture to go with it.   If you want to help out, email me at missingauthor2@gmail.com  

Not on Blogger, 
Censorship fighting,
REESE
