Gossip

2004-11-20T11:46:59Z

Apparently there's alot of rumors going around about me. There's a rumor that I shoplifted a shirt out of the den. For what reason would I shoplift when I've been doing pretty good lately financially?

What's an even worse rumor is that I have an eating disorder. I've heard of both anorexic and bullimic rumors spreading around. Beth thinks I'm malnutritient because I won't eat high-calorie, high-carb stuff. I don't think she started the rumor considering she's one of my best friends. But it actually is possible to get thin through healthy eating and exercise. I've been known to eat like a pig if I get fruits, veggies, or bran thrown on my plate. Just because I don't eat junk doesn't mean I don't eat. And the time I threw up was because I was sick, I had a 24-hour bug. It's terrible that people would just make unfounded allegations against me without any proof.

I'm sorry if I sound whiny or hateful, but gossip is a horrible thing. It can seriously ruin a person's life. Don't worry, I'm not going suicidal. (Another rumor which evolved from the truth is that every time I get upset I try to kill myself. One time in the 4th grade I attempted suicide. That was five years ago, I've changed. People CAN change.)

On the whole, I'm pretty ticked off. I hate people who have nothing better to do with their lives than find ways to ruin other peoples' lives. It's rude and immature, and it needs to stop.

Life again

Well, it was fun doing The King and I, I made friends and did my passion. But in a way, I am glad to see that it's done as of this afternoon. I do get sick of doing the same thing over and over (which is not good seeing as how I want to be an actress)and its fun to actually have a life. My mom as a "victory" present is taking me out to dinner and to see Bridget Jones' Diary 2 (she's so cool now because she says I'm old enough to make my own entertainment decisions) and this weekend I'm planning 2 see my friend Sam's play (Emily, if you wanna spend the night w/ me Friday, call me or see me in the hall or something).

The King and I

2004-10-31T00:53:36Z

Performance date is soon, and I am really nervous, even though I have a very small part as a siamese child. It's still nerveracking because this is a high school production, and the school has been known to put on really good productions in the past. I just dyed my hair dark brown so I'd look more middle-eastern, not that it helped much because I still have pale skin and blue eyes. Oh well. I am so happy for Sarah Vanderson for getting the role of Anna! She's a sweetheart and a great singer and actress, and definately deserved the role.

My father makes me angry. He says I cannot go online except for educational purposes because this stupid virus completely destroyed our hard drive and RAM and we had to get new ones, so I am doing this in my Seminar because Mrs. Purkis is cool and doesn't care! Anyway, I'm getting really tired of my layout thingy so I'm gonna change it. Anyway, I've been really tired and groggy lately and I got almost too skinny last week. My parents say it's because I don't eat enough protein but I'm not giving up my vegetarianism. I think I'm coming down with something though because my nose is really runny and my stomach feels like it's burning.

I'm not dead!

2004-09-07T00:20:05Z

Just to let you all know, my computer is often really screwy and this time I had to reformat the hard drive and start everything over again which yes, really sucks. So, no, I'm not ignoring y'all. Just checked my (actually quite accurate, I try to keep it with the doctor) scale and I lost 5 pounds, which is good. I'm not fat or anything, I'm just short and kinda curvy but not really. I'm alot thinner now than I was last year. I went from 135 to 112 in 5 months which isn't too bad. I got 5 more pounds to go, but it should start coming off. I'm on an uberstrict diet and I exercise like hell.

Cedar, Michigan

2004-08-17T04:18:30Z

Has anyone out there heard of the town? Lol that's because it's about half the size of where I live, which is tiny enough isn't it? My cousins have a campground out there which has woods surrounding it. I dirtbiked (badly) a couple of times and I got hurt but it was fun! And my cousin Gary and I did about a 3 hour Sonic the Hedgehog match to see how long it took both of us to complete a level; he won lol. It was fun but I'm glad to be back. Tomorrow I'll be seeing Beauty and the Beast at the Barn Theatre. I loved that movie when I was little and it'll be fun to see it live.

Birthday Party

2004-07-20T16:56:29Z

Yesterday was my birthday party and thank u guys 4 the awesome presents! Kendra got me LOTR: Return of the King! Mitchell got me Sleepy Hollow and the Yellowcard CD! Emily got me this yummylicious Dr.Pepper (the Camp Geneva version of rum)lipgloss and the Rooney CD! Beth got me this cool raft for the water device mechanism! My Grandma who is really cool got me a collagy watch and a matching belt! And my Aunt Becky and adorable little Chinese comrad Zoe both got me money! My real birthday comes in two days, so I'm gonna be getting presents from the parentals and the rest of the relatives which is awesome (LOL I love presents...greedy me...). Anyway I'll be 15, which, much to my despair, makes me the old, short lady of the group. Oh well.

Spidey's Back!

2004-07-14T23:02:32Z

Hi, I just got back from seeing Spiderman 2 with Mitchell, and it was awesome! Tobey Maguire is very hot=)The only thing I didn't like about the movie is that Kirsten Dunst's character, Mary Jane, seemed to be a little bit bitchy as opposed to the second one where she was really nice. Other than that, it was awesome. I especially loved the whole Otto Octavious thing, the arms were really well done. And all the stunts must have been a blast to do. Offhand, I'd say I liked this one better than the original.

Sorry, I had to do this!

I am so sorry that it took so long for me to update! I'm participating in a rpg right now which I can't tell you who the celebrity I'm impersonating is right off, but I'll give you 3 hints
~___forever
~"A darker Hayley Mills"
~Anti-C.J. and Banks
The first person to guess correctly gets a prize! Mitchell, Kendra, and Emily can't enter this contest, sorry.:( Mitch, go ahead and change my background picture, I don't care what picture it is as long as it's related to Bend it Like Beckham. I'm sorry if my email was being funky, it automatically sends into the spam folder whatever it doesn't exactly recognize.

Anyway, my birthday party is Monday the 19th, so if anyone got confused, It's the 19th, not the 18th. As for everyone else, I'm gonna be 15, which makes me the oldest (and the shortest) of my close friends. It's weird how it work out that way, huh? I have a stomachache right now, probably nothing serious, just that I ate cake for my cousin Brendon's fifth birthday and I'm not used to eating anything sugary since I'm on a diet.

Another Chapter

2004-06-25T03:55:30Z

Peter bit his nails out of trepidation as he opened up the door. Juliet came back with a small smile. She didn’t want to cause any trouble, and neither did Peter.
“Peter, I need to talk to you.”
“I’m listening.”
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry I got you into this mess, and ruined the friendship between you and Mark.”
“Now wait...”
“I’m not finished,” she interrupted. “However, I have come to a decision. I am going to follow my instincts and keep my distance from Mark until the friction wears off. This also means, I’m going to have to keep my distance from you. I’m sorry, Peter, because I love you. But it may be more of a brotherly love than a soul mate love.”
Peter didn’t say anything. He knew at that moment it was over. Juliet was kind enough not to let the words “I don’t want to be with you” come out of her mouth. Though her intentions were good and polite, they were still heartbreaking. He started humming their tune in his head, wondering if someday he really would know.
Juliet walked away good-naturedly. She never showed any sign of arrogance, because she knew Peter hated that. Juliet walked into her room and faced her bright pink pillow, which looked especially inviting. She needed something to relieve her of all this grief, so she tucked her face into the pillow and cried. Just then, her phone began to ring. How inconvenient; of all people, this time it had to be Mark. She screened her call.
“Juliet, are you there? Okay, well, call me when you return. Best of luck. Bye.”
She unplugged the phone line, avoiding any apprehensive calls. Flashing back to her teenage years, she remembered that she always dreaming of falling in love. She never imagined she’d have to crash into it. Love was supposed to be a sexy, intense and adventurous experience, not a heart-breaking one. It didn’t make sense. She began to cry again, wondering how she could have made such a foolish mistake.

This is the update you wanted, desigotstrangld (sorry if there is a spelling error!). It’s not very good but I guess I’ve done worse fanfics (remember the infamous POTC: The Musical, Kendra?)

Err...

2004-06-23T16:53:13Z

I have the strangest addiction to change stuff after it's been the same for even a short period of time. Like lj layouts, for instance. Mitchell, I owed you a favor, therefore I once again dedicated the pink to you. Also, my bed, I may have it faced vertically, even though my room looks bigger with it faced horizontally. I got a new Evanescence poster (*cough* Kendra needs to burn the CD *cough*) and new hair: brown. Not a hugely dramatic change, it's about the color of the underlayer of my hair. I like brown hair, it's richer and suits more people than blonde hair. I hated my blonde hair. Unfortunately, this is a semipermanent instead of a permanent, so it'll only last about a month. Oh well. As of yesterday, I have approximately 1 month until I'm 15!

I Got A Story for One And All

2004-06-21T23:34:10Z

This is a Love Actually fanfic based on the awesome movie...

CHAPTER 1
Peter waited for a while as his new wife, Juliet, would come back with one of her pies. He loved her dearly. She was sweet, enchanting, charming, and beautiful, but she had a very odd taste in food. He hoped his wasn’t rhubarb or horse radish pie, like she had brought last time. ...

He looked at his watch. Where was she? She was going to stop by at Mark’s to take a look at the wedding video, but he never thought it would’ve taken that long. Then again, it was Mark. He’d lose his head if it wasn’t nailed on. Finally, he decided to watch The Office without her. He knew she’d be gutted, but what could he do? It was 10 o’ clock and she was still out. ...

“Sorry I took so long,” Juliet finally stated, walking through the door with kind of an awkward smile, not the genuine smile she usually had.

“Hello, hon. What took so long?” he replied, trying not to sound impatient. They did just get married.

“Actually, Mark and I got acquainted. He’s not a bad fellow once you get to know him. The tape was a little unusual though...” she stopped herself. She didn’t want to hurt the love of her life.

“How so, love?”

“Well...” she tried to think of an answer on the spot... “Well the picture appeared but there was no sound,” she lied, silently sighing with relief.

Peter knew Juliet would help the matter. Mark was a very nice guy, but probably the most disorganized slob in all of Europe. Juliet, on the other hand, was extremely organized, with straight-A GSCE’s and an accepted application to Cambridge in the fall. Peter wondered when first meeting her if she’d turn out a little stuck-up, but actually, she turned out a humble and kindhearted person.

Juliet left into the room, thinking. She wondered if Mark hated her or loved her? If he hated her, would that trouble the best friend relationship between Mark and Peter? Suppose he loved her? She just got married, what would divorce look like at such an early time? She knew she was overreacting a little, as she paced back and forth, her heart beating. She needed to straighten out this mess. She needed to stop Mark.

Peter paced around the kitchen, wondering if Juliet was really telling the truth about the film. She always had a little uncertain tone when she told a little white lie. “Damnit Peter, you’re smarter than this! Juliet wouldn’t do anything!” he tried to convince himself. But it was no use, she was up to something. Normally Peter wasn’t a busybody, but in a matter such as this, he needed to take action. He loved Juliet, and if there was any chance of her getting hurt or her hurting someone else, he needed to stop it.

CHAPTER 2

Peter drove to Mark’s house, where he caught Mark sitting on his couch watching the video of the wedding. His eyes were a little watery, as if he wasn’t quite sober. Peter knew that Mark drank as a way to ward off depression.
“She told me about the tape,” said Peter in a cool tone.
“Ah, yes. With luck it turned out all right.”
Peter leaned in as he watched various shots of the wedding and memorable moments, realizing that Juliet was in a majority of the shots. He grabbed the remote and clicked stop.
“What’s the problem?”
“Listen bastard, I don’t know what you’re trying to pull, but if you’re going to hurt Juliet, you’re going to have to get through me first!”
“I don’t understand...hurt her...what are you talking about?”
“You know exactly what I’m talking about!
“Why would I ever hurt anyone I love?!”
Peter gasped. Mark was his best friend, and Juliet was his wife. If his best friend loved his wife, the mad pyramid of love would come into focus. He didn’t want anything of that sort to happen. He loved both Juliet and Mark; he could not let them unite. Quickly he ejected the tape out of the player and stormed out the door, nearly smacking himself for allowing this to happen. He ran into the car, but as soon as he turned on the radio, he heard “Someday We’ll Know,” which was the song he and Juliet shared. Slowly he sang along, as he rode home, his face faltering. He couldn’t face Juliet. She would hate him.
Then he thought to himself as he pulled into a bakery. She couldn’t hate him, she was the one who proposed to him, which is quite an unusual thing to do. He walked inside the bakery, walking up to the counter.
“Hello, Peter,” Sally said eagerly.
“Hello, Sally, I just stopped by to pick up one of your delicious pies.”
“You don’t have a strange taste as your Juliet does, do you?”
He wanted so badly to once just get a cherry or a lemon meringue, something normal. But he couldn’t, he wasn’t doing this for him. He was doing it for Juliet.
“Certainly I do. One curry pie, please.”
She wrinkled her nose for a bit and then smiled sheepishly. “Well...I guess we make them for a reason, eh?”
He smiled awkwardly as he paid for the pie and took it. “Thank you.”
“Thank you.”
He thought that finally the problem would be solved...

CHAPTER 3
Juliet outstretched her legs on the couch, and thought about Mark and Peter. Who would she belong to? She loved Peter, they were married. But she had a place in her heart for Mark as well. She knew that they were both incredibly nice and charming, but she knew she had to make a choice.
Peter walked through the door with a pie. “I stopped by Sally’s Bakery, got you a curry pie.”
“Thank you, Peter...wait, you couldn’t be gone this long for a curry pie, could you?”
Peter paused for a moment. “Actually, I saw Mark.”
“Hmm, what’s new with him?”
“Well...” he felt a lump in his throat...”I saw the tape he made. You seem to be in it a lot.”
“Yes...why does that matter?”
Peter knew that if he didn’t jump on the conversation, he and Juliet would be talking all night. “Wake up, Juliet! He loves you! He’s mad about you! I’ve seen the way he looks at you!”
Juliet was shocked. She twirled her blonde hair around her finger, as she often did when she was nervous. “He loves me?”
“Yes. Yes, Juliet. He loves everything about you. He loves the way you walk, he loves your eyes, he even loves your mad taste in food. EVERYTHING!”
Juliet couldn’t take it anymore. She needed to get out. She headed toward the door, hoping Peter wouldn’t notice. No such luck.
“Where the hell are you going?”
Juliet just said one simple word before she climbed into the car. “Out.”
She kept on driving, singing along to the radio. She never thought that she would ever walk out on her husband, but she needed some breathing space. She kept on driving, until she reached the beach. She walked up the pier, and was surprised to see Harry, her friend Jamie’s cousin, walking along it, too. He had the same look on his face that she did: Hurt, confused, torn.
“Hi, Harry.”
“Hello.”
They said at almost the exact same time, “What’s wrong?”
“You first,” spoke Juliet.
“My secretary is in love with me, and I’m a married man. I don’t want to betray my wife, and I don’t want to hurt either of them. You?”
“My husband’s friend is in love with me, and I’m a married woman. I don’t want to betray my husband, and I don’t want to hurt either of them.”
They laughed at the similarities. “There, I thought I was the only one with this sort of problem,” Juliet explained.
“I guess we all face it one time or another.”
“I guess so.”
“So who’s this guy who loves you?”
“Peter’s friend Mark.”
“Mark? His heart was broken so many times I assumed he’d given up on love,” Harry told her solemnly.
“How do you know Mark?”
“He’s my nephew.”
Juliet smiled. Harry had about 20 nephews. Mark was bound to be related to him somehow.
“Maybe you can help me then.”
“Sure, dear. What do you need help with?”
“Mark took a wedding tape, and I was in every shot. It was almost surreal.”
“He loves you, all right. I’m sorry, but I’ll have to tell you the truth: You have to confront Mark. Be brutally honest about how you feel, he’ll understand.”
“God, I hope so.”
Juliet almost felt a lightning bolt beat her down. She didn’t know how to be brutally honest. She was too afraid of coming across as mean. She didn’t have the Harry talent, where he could be honest 24/7 and still be one of the nicest men in Europe...

Camp Geneva

Hey y'all! I just got back from a camp in Holland, Michigan some people like to call Camp Geneva. It was awesome: The games, the food, the studies, everything. The only problem with it is that it was WAAAAY too short. I would have liked it to be another week (but don't worry, I have missed you guys:)) Two conselors were really good looking- Uncle Zac and Uncle Kurt. (We call them Uncle and Aunt so we can all act like one big family, get it?) Anyway, I'm back, and I got my dad the beach chair he wanted for father's day, so everything is good.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Before seeing the movie for the second time, I read the book over again, and then saw the movie. I was a little disappointed because the film is a little butchered and out of order. Alfonso Cuaron didn't seem to have the same passion and personality in directing styles as Chris Columbus did. It's a good movie overall, but only if you haven't seen the books.

Well, I've done some thinking, some apologizing, and I'm back to stay. Sorry if I scared or disappointed anyone. I realized I need to stop being selfish and stop feeling sorry for myself. I act like a real bitch sometimes, and that's why I apologize to each and every one of you. I feel better now that I'm back doing what I love to do, and everything is water under the bridge now.

Bye

I'm sorry, since I just got back, but I'm going away for a while. I need some time to clear my head and get help now. I may return, but I warn you: it's going to be a while. I'm really sorry I have to do this since I love livejournaling so much, but it's obvious that not everyone wants me online. I'm sorry, but that's the way it has to be. Otherwise, I might do something crazy, not to scare any of you. Kendra, Kendall, and Brittany- I know I was really rude and I'm deeply sorry. If you never forgive me, I don't blame you. I'm going to have a hard time forgiving myself. To all those who were so kind, I love you all, you've been super sweet to me, and I'll miss you all. Keira, it was great getting to know you and I'm very sorry I couldn't talk longer seeing as how I'm a huge fan of yours. Goodbye, Katy TerBerg
