I'm soooo excited, because in 4 days my birthday will be here! I have been reminding my parents everday, just so they don't forget. I don't like having school on my birthday, though. Just ruins it.
Right after my birthday though is fall break, a week later, so I'm even more excited about that!
I'll catch you up on what happens soon!

6th week of school
Gosh I live a boring life.
So, my birthday is coming up!! :)
And I told my parents I only want one thing:
Concert tickets.
And they said that won't happen. Pshh.
So I told them that's all I want, because honestly, that is all I want.
And they still said no.
They told me that if that's all I want then I'm gonna be very disappointed.
But I won't stop asking.
Even if my birthday is in two weeks.
**
This past week I had tennis lessons.
Yes, the one's my mom signed me up for.
She told me that "This was a way to get you out of the house.''
But I told her I like my cave, and I walk to school everyday, therefore I do get out of the house.
Anyway, I went to tennis and had class with about 6 other kids.
My instructor goes to my school...awkward.
But it was fun, for the most part.
I ended up making a few friends, so that's good.
*
I must've caught something at school because the past few days I've been sick. Sore throat, and crackly voice. Ugh. I brought some tea to school and that was good. I drank it all 60 minutes into class, though. The rest of the day my throat was very sore.
Anyway, other than that, school has been OK.
I get Monday off, which is great!!
Love,
Aislinn

Friday
So it turns out that it was the fourth week of school, not the fith!
Since I last updated, not much has happened. But really, it's not like I expected something great to, nothing really stood out this week.
I will say that Chinese is getting easier, because I'm reviewing my work and studying. I have to take an online quiz this weekend, so fingers crossed I do well!
Recently I started to watch the X Factor, since it just premiered the other day! American Idol kind of crashed, to be honest, and America's Got Talent isn't that great...in my opinion. So I'm watching XFactor! It's great so far! :)
Math and Science aren't exciting. So I guess that means I should be doing well. I dont know, I don't really look at my grades, but I do know, unlike a lot of people, I do not have any D's, C's, or F's! Yay!
So yeah, my week in a nutshell.

I'm gonna assume that it's the 5'th week of school.
Because I honestly don't know..
Sorry for the late post, I haven't had time to update, but with my free time now I figured I would :)
Last week, I did fairly well in all my classes. But what's so strange, is that I'm passing, whereas a lot of the kids in my classes, are failing! In Freshman Seminar, my teacher does week grade-checks, and if a student is failing (or has less than a C, since those don't pass at my school) then the two of you make a plan to fix your grades so you pass.
That sounds confusing, trust me. And the first day he did the checks, most of the class was called up! I'll be honest, I kind of wanted my name to be called. Not because I want to fail or anything, but because I wanted to know my grades. Turns out you only saw the class you're failing. Like I said, most of my class is failing. Except for me and a few others.
Later on in the week, my english teacher told us that after grading just a few notebooks, he has come to the conclusion that half of my English class is failing, and half isn't! He said that he noticed about 80% of us aren't passing. Some of us have an 11%. How do you get an 11% in the 5'th week of school?! It's ridiculous.
What's even more so is math class. My teacher is fine, she's nice. However, the kids in my class don't understand anything!! And it's still just review!!! I cannot tell you how many times a day I hear, "I don't get it. I don't understand." Come from the girls behind me.
I figured that Georgia, not being the highest when it comes to education, that I might be behind, but according to my classes, I'm ahead! I'm not upset, rather be ahead than behind, but it's annoying.
Chinese is hard!! I didn't expect it to be easy, but I don't understand it. At all.
Drawing + Theater is fine, not much happening.
Anyways.
So last week I was at lunch, getting my usual. (Subway footlong tuna on white..like you cared) and I am in this long line to buy my food, right? So I get up to the register and type in my code, while I wait for the woman to let me leave. Basically, this is what happened.
So the lunch lady asked me if this kid on her screen was me (my lunch I.D doesn't have a photo, and they really don't know my name) I nodded, and she asked me if I have any money. "In my account." I said, and she was like, "You don't have enough to buy that." So I said, "How much is it?" Because I don't eat an entire footlong, I eat 6 inches and bring the rest the next day! So she said, "It's 5 dollars. You have 1.25, enough for the water." I started to ask her if I could leave it there, when this guy next to me goes, "I'll buy her lunch." We both turned, and the guy was smiling, and was like, "I have money, so I'll buy her lunch." The woman told me to wait there and filled out some more orders, and when it was the boys turn he said, "Here's 5 for her lunch, and 5 for mine." The woman put both our orders in AND THEN HAD THE NERVE TO TELL ME "He did you a nice thing." UM, DUH. So I said thanks to the boy again, and he was like, "No problem!" And walked off. I have no clue who he was, or what grade he's in.
As always,

3'rd Week of School
Three weeks down!
I can't really complain...well, yes I can.
School is boring.
I give up.
I just want summer to come back. Can I sleep until then?
I don't have any new friends. My mom says I should try and talk to more people, but honestly I've tried.
High school isn't what it looks like on tv.
One thing that's different from middle school, is that there isn't as much drama! With the biggest freshman class in the history of the school (and it's not a very big school) that means it's very hard to keep up with everyone. Especially like me, who doesn't know more than 5 people, if that! But in all seriousness, there is no drama.
Except at lunch.
The other day me & Lizzette were sitting with my friends Alyssa, Cecile, and Murphy, when one of Lizzette's friends sat next to her. They began to talk, and he (I don't know his name) asked her if she liked sitting with the 4 of us. She said, "No, I don't like them." So he says, "Then why do you sit with them?" and she replied, "Because I like Aislinn, I just don't like the rest of them."
Now, I know she didn't care for one girl, but she never once told me she didn't like sitting with the others! And I don't know why! She still doesn't know that I know.
But there's one problem.
Being the third week of school, and high school for God's sakes, I don't want to get caught up in this. I am NOT getting involved in drama. (I say this but then watch me get pulled in.)
I became friends with Lizzette first. Before I met Alyssa, Lizzette was my only friend. So, I feel like if I picked to sit with Lizzette, her being my first friend and all, that I would then lose 3 new friends! But, if I sat with the 3 girls, then Lizzette might not be my friend anymore.
The other day (right after this happened, the following day) Lizzette and I sat with some of her friends, who didn't include me. Who didn't talk to me. Who ignored me.
Is that what she felt like?
She saw me looking for the 3 of my other friends, and even said "You can go sit with them if you want!" But I didn't see them, nor did I wanna be rude.
So, unlike two days ago, for the past 2 days I have been eating with my 3 other friends. When I see Lizzette, she looks lonely. I don't know if it's because she ate alone, or if she was waiting for me. If either of those were the case, she'd know where to find me.
But I like hanging out with Alyssa, Cec, and Murphy! So, why do I even need to pick who to eat with! Why do I care so much about hurting others when I should be worried about myself!?
Oh well. I'm learning, right?
On another note, I have had college prep for the last few days. Like, the other day I had to get up in front of my School Success class and say a goal of mine I want to complete.
I chose to say my goal of "What I plan on doing before High School ends" I decided to change it, so instead of before High School ends, it became when High School is over. It was hilarious.
"Aislinn. Come present your goal." Said my teacher. I stood up and picked up my paper with my goal and reasons why and stepped up in front of the class. Unlike most times publicly speaking, I wasn't nervous. I confidently walked up to the front of the class, maybe it's because I know what I wanted and I think it's a pretty cool goal. "I'm going to be doing goal number 2." I said, as I began to read, "When I graduate high school I want to have enough money and good enough grades to be able to afford to live in the UK, preferrably the London area." I looked up and one girl who sits at my table spoke up, "AH! The UK! I wanna go there so bad, take me with you!" I smiled and my teacher said, "No. She just said she will have enough money for her. Not you." The smile dropped off the girls face as soon as he spoke. (omg hahahaha) Then one boy, in the back of the class, spoke up. "So, how do you plan on getting all this money?" I said, "By working?" "So, you'd work anywhere, like McDonalds?" And this is where I got wicked confident and sassy, saying, "McDonalds won't get me to Cambridge, now will it?" And he shut up. Along with the rest of the class. Who was silent earlier, but now was focused on me. "Cambridge? What?" Said the boy, and people looked at each other. No one knows what that college is. "Yes, that's where I'm going to college." I said, and looked at the teacher to see if he thought that was a good goal or not. He propped back in his chair and said 'wow'. "Cambridge.That's good. So you plan on living there?" I nodded with a big smile, because this is something I really want. "Why? Why don't you want to live in America?" This caught me off guard, but it wasn't like I'd never thought of that before. So I answered honestly. "I, uh, I just wanna..I just wanna leave. I don't want to live here." And, even though no one was speaking, people began to pay more attention to me. I'm sure some people were even thinking Doesn't want to live in America?! She's crazy! But I'm not. I want this, and know that I want to go there. Then, randomely, the teacher began to fake cry and said, "Do we not fit your standards?!" And I said, "No." and walked to my seat. "Land of the free! Home of the brave! Do you wanna give all that up?" He yelled, not rudely, but more like a way to silence the class but to get my attention again. Just like before, I honestly said, "Yes." And I meant it.
So that was my week!

2 Weeks Down..
How many weeks left?
So, once again I am here to update you on my second week of school!
It's a lot different.
Let's start with math.
So I sit next to this girl, and apparently she's really popular, so she completely blew me off all day until the next time I went into math class, where she randomly asks me; "Are you a sophmore?" I shake my head and say no. She laughs and says, "Oh, sorry I thought you were. Sorry for not talking to you all the other day." I said it was fine (but we're taking freshman math soo) and she's spoken to me since.
Lunch is better this week, as well. I have lunch every other day with Alyssa, but have it every day with Lizzette and my two new friends Murphy and Cec. (Omg I don't know how to spell her name!)
Freshman sem. and Chinese are fine. Chinese is cool, I'm currently learning numbers. 1-10. I know the symbols & pronounciation. Freshman sem is fine, not much going on. It's basically a free class.
Biology is alright, another class where we just take notes.
In ancient civ we're learning about pre-history. Which is really cool. The teacher's pretty funny, too.
As for drawing & theater, it's getting better. Can't really say drawing is fun when you're one of 6 freshman who know each other. Same goes for the rest of the class. Everyone knows each other.
Theater is alright, I usually talk to a girl named Sam, and sit with her everyday.
Last but not least, english.
English is probably my favorite subject, because the teacher is so cool. He doesn't really care what you do, as long as you get your work done. And the people in my class are really funny.
That's about it!

First Week
I never know how to start these things...
A week ago today I started high school. The days flew by, and for that I'm thankful. Do you know how deprived of the internet I've been during those 8 school hours? I admit, I contemplated even writing this post, just because I didn't know how long it would take me!
My classes are alright. Drama is definitely better. Same goes for drawing and painting.
Something I've found difficult if school shopping. I just recently got all my school supplies lists', because my teachers give them out on different days. PLUS the fact that Wal-Mart didn't have a lot of the notebooks I needed. That was a first.
All in all, high school isn't what they tell you. They don't prepare you for any of it. It's like one big puzzle, and you have to fill in the missing peices with your experience.
My favorite classes are English 1 and Ancient Civilizations. By far. The teachers are great and the classes are very fun.
My mom seems to think it's great I will be reading To Kill A Mockingbird this year. I physically cannot read that book. I've tried. I don't find it to be all that good, to be honest. I read half. And I'm not joking when I say I cannot, cannot, physically read that book. I honestly don't know why it's that big of a deal, either.
Alright, don't hate me because this must have been the worst post. Ever.
I apologize.
But, I can tell you that I've made some friends? And by some I mean 2. And one of them I don't have class with, Alyssa. As it turns out, we don't have lunch together, either. I found that out as I walked into class 40 minutes late because I went to the wrong lunch. I won't even lie, I had a good lunch. But the teacher yelled at me for a bit, then moved onto the next half of the class who was also late. The next day he apologized for not explaining that clearly enough.
Other than that, school is school. I honestly don't look forward to going, even though I've been told these are going to be some of the best years of my life. I don't think so. Not when you've moved halfway across country to a brand new school and know absolutely nobody, whereas everyone else is in their own cliques. Yeah. Fun.

Day One of Highschool!
"These are going to be the best four years of your life. These four years can either make or break you. Get you into the college you want, or keep you from getting into the college you want."
No pressure or anything.
So, if you couldn't tell, I started my first day of highschool!
It was hectic.
I told my mom that everyone would know everyone.
She said they wouldn't, that there would be a lot of new kids.
Everyone knew each other.
I walked in and everyone was saying, "Hi!" or "I missed you!" meanwhile I stood awkwardly in the midst of it all and was like, 'Excuse the awkward girl...'
I did talk to one girl though, she was a freshman as well.
(Only freshman and new students came to school today.)
Her name is Lizzette.
So I sat with her during the pep-ralley type thing in the gym today.
After that we went to go to our assigned groups. I was group 4, whereas my new friend is group 1.
So I said goodbye, but thankfully we have one class together, School Success.
In my new group, which consisted of 10 students and 2 "Link Leaders" (Junior and Senior)
I talked to one girl, who was new as well, and her name is Alyssa.
She's from Pennsylvania.
(That's all I'm telling you about her because frankly that's just awkward if I tell you everything about her..)
BUT I know that she likes One Direction as well.
Which is great, because none of my friends really cared at my old school.
But it's nice that someone else can relate.
Unfortunately I don't have class with her, but I do have lunch everyday with her!
After lunch, my group went on a school tour.
Most of my classes are upstairs, but one class is main-level, art.
There is 6 freshman in art.
3 girls. 3 boys.
What stinks is that the 2 girls already knew each other. And they're like best friends. Figures.
All three boys know each other.
The teacher seems really nice, though!
I hope that it's not clique-y, but I can already tell you what classes will be.
Most of them.
All in all, my schedule is fine.
Can't complain.
I can about drama.
Remember how tight drama was in middle school, and how once my friends left I was that awkward bystander? It's just like that here. Execpt worse.
All the kids in drama class know each other.
How?
They all had class together in middle school. They're all friends.
Not again.
I don't want to be another student just floating around class.
I want to make some friends, but it is very clique-y.
In case you're wondering, this is my schedule:
- Ancient Civilations
- Biology
- Algebra 1
- Drawing & Painting
- School Success
- Theater
- English 1
That's all!
179 more days, yeah?
Sigh.
Counting down!
God bless,
Aislinn

Oh! And I share a locker. Yeah, I know. Share? A locker? With another freshman, only freshman share. And thankfully girls get paired with girls and guys with guys. My partners name is Audrey. She's new as well!
One more thing, this is great. On Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday I go to school a regular time; 7:55. But on Wednesday (every Wednesday) I get to sleep in and go to school at 8:55! Awesome, right? That's the time where I can go early if I like, and finsih any work or hang around I guess..

I'm Never Good With Titles...
Speaking of titles, another school year is over so now I have to think of a new blog title! It should be up within the next week, but judging from my lack of posts this month, no promises.
I don't know why I got so excited to leave school for summer break. What have I done this summer? Nothing. I am literally the human form of a potato!
I have a reading assignment, I know that much. I picked a book called "Make Lemonade" and, for someone who can't spell to save her life, I find it very hard to read this book. That or I'm to lazy.
I went to the fourth of July party that the neighbors down the street held. They all seem very nice, and clique-y. But they seem like a fun crowd, so it was nice to meet some people. No one my age though.
Did I mention I have to walk to school? We live that close. It's weird to describe, but even though the high school I'm going to is open enrollment, it is more of a neighborhood school, if that makes any sense. And, since I literally turn a corner and see the school, I have to walk. I won't miss the bus, but walking? Ewww.
On Monday I signed up for my classes. There was so many options! A little to many, I think. I think it would have been easier to pick if they were described more, too. Like, gym for example. Is there no regular P.E class in highschool? Apparently not. So I signed up for team sports, I figured that would be easy enough. Rather that than weight training. But then when we were leaving my mom told me she wouldn't have signed up for that, and that she would've went for another class. She said there probably won't be many girls in that class. Now I want a new schedule.
I'm taking Chinese, that's for sure. My mom is making me. I want French, but Chinese is just as well.
Another thing I found out about my school is that they are part of a forgein exchange program. SCORE. I am beyond thrilled. Even though I will have to wait until my Junior year, I now have the opportunity to go and stay somewhere else for my school year! Literally, that is the only thing I want in high school. I want out of here.
In other news, I got my One Direction jacket! Ahh! I was so happy, I kept jumping around everywhere and couldn't stop smiling.

Something In My Window
Even though I'm a teen and it's summer, I still need my sleep.
That's why, thanks to whatever pour soul fell into my window, I am up at 2:30 with my dog. Not only that, but I also have had an ever increasing headache thanks to the bright light in my room.
Go back to sleep. You say. Ignore it. You continued. Ha. Not likely, whatever fell into the crate of doom surrounding my window- is stuck. It is physically impossible to get out of that cage without climbing the ladder. Even still, after the past twenty minutes, this creature has yet to figure that out.
At first it was a hard thud, which woke my dog up. Then it proceded to jump (ram?) itself into the window, making it difficult to get any sleep.
And my family is asleep.
I have no phone.
I am stuck.
Great.
Figured I'd inform you, since I have literally nothing else to do. Slowly watching the time go by.
If my parents complain of my moodiness, it was the thing stuck in my window. Not me.
Any one want to keep me company?
God Bless,
Love

Summer is Halfway Over ...
Not much has happened since the last time I updated, usually I just spend my days on the computer, not knowing much about what happens outside. I do know, however, that the Colorado fires (last I heard) had in fact gotten worse. To the point that people were begining to get evacuated. Thankfully, it still is not close to where I am, because thhat would be terrible.
I've started to get used to living here. Sometimes I have those moments where I'm look at my window thinking I'd see trees, but instead see a metal barrier, since I am in the basement.
Whoever came up with timezones should be slapped. It is so hard skyping with someone, and when it is only 10 pm Mnt. zone, it's 12 Eastern time. Oh well. At least when school starts, it wont be as hard waking up, right? Kidding. I sleep until 10 every day.
So today I think the plan is that we all should be going to the Colorado Aquarium today! This will be the first real thing we've done as a family all summer. But..a part of me knows it is a bittersweet thing. Sure, we get family time, but there is always siblings fighting. Usually being Maeve and Declan. Aidan and I get on great, because we're older and dont care about the little petty things. I hope that the fighting is on the down-low though, because it isnt often where we can go out as a family.

WiFi is back!
(Insert chorus of hallelujahs)
Until the day comes where you are without wifi of any kind, and I am the ony one with it, will you know just how much pain and loneliness I have felt this past week.
So, now that I'm back I have a lot to say! But I figured I should sum it up, since you would probably get bored with the long version.
Basically it took my family four days to get to Colorado. And, go figure, we arive on the hottest day of the year. We spent the night in the same hotel I previously had stayed in, and everything was fine until we moved into the new house.
Literally, we had nothing unpacked. And once the people who were helping unpack showed up, I tried to stay out of everyone's way. (Not for their sake, for mine. I didn't want to lift the boxes and what-not) Until my parents caught me in my room and forced me to vaccum. Then help with boxes. *Sigh* So, unfortunatly, I helped.
Strangely enough, one of our neighbors came outside to say hi! Now, I say this is strange because back in Georgia, my mom had to literally go door-to-door to introduce herself. But here, I've learned that the people are super nice and welcoming!
So, now that you are all caught up, I will just tell you what's been happening.
All of my siblings, even the dog, have friends in the neighborhood, except me. However, (this is really weird) I was told there is a girl who lives behind us who is my age, and has the same name as me. How does that happen!?! Anyway, in the meantime I will keep you posted and up to date!
Speaking of which, the Colorado wildfires are getting worse. So worse that they are begining to evacuate people from their homes. Thankfully, they arent by us and hopefully they will continue to stay that way!
God Bless

Okay, I will refrian from posting photos in this post because I missed the Atlanta concert. Saddened by this...Ok...

Moving, Ed Sheeran, and One Direction
Currently, I am sitting in my room with my dog, who seems to be going ballistic at the fact that there are the future residents walking around the house. So, while I try to calm her down, I decided to play music. She barked throughout the first half dozen One Direction songs, but has gotten quiet once I put on Ed Sheeran..
The moving date is fast approaching, which means that the next time I blog, I will no longer be a resident of Georgia! Which, no saying that out loud, seems like a big deal. I mean, for the past 11 years I have lived in the "peach state" and now I am moving to the other side of the country, in the mile high city! I guess this is life.
I am starting to get back into the habit of the two hour time change, but tomorrow, I will be (once again) in another time zone! This is crazy, but it's for the better. My dad likes his new job, and to be honest, any state is better than Georgia. It's only a plus that were moving to such a pretty state, Colorado.
I am nervous for the upcoming years, though. Will I make friends? Will I sit alone at lunch, every day without anyone to talk to? Are the people friendly? I really hope that I do make friends, because it's hard enough moving to another state for your freshman year, but when it's highschool, it's that time where you've grown up with these people, so you know them! But they don't know me. I hope I make friends. I don't want to be lonely.
God Bless,
Love,

Last Day
Well, after a very quick 6 days, the time has come for my Dad and I to say goodbye to the mountains, and hello to Georgia once again.
I hate flying. With a passion. I have an over-active imagination, meaning I come up with the freakiest scenerios for the simplest things. And, just like last year, I am freaky out about a short plane ride from Denver to Altanta.
I am bringing all of my One Direction things with me. No question. My parents opinion is invalid. Today, my dad asked me if I was leaving anything in the car and not taking it on the plane. Heck to the no. I am not leaving behind those boys. Then he put a stack of paper on my bed and said, "We need to go through these." I instantly, literally he tried to get to them first but I beat him to it, grabbed the top two magazines and put them next to me. The rest I could care less about. Seriously, do what you please with the newspaper, just let me have my boys. Then, I tried to download music to my phone, but iTunes was being completely rediculous so I downloaded an app instead (which I'm listening to now, and the flaw is that there is some weird bass problem in the background...Oh well) I honestly hope the people next to me won't mind listening and looking at One Direction for three hours. I don't care.
As always,
God Bless
Love

PS; I am deadly afraid of planes, if I didn't clarify that enough.

High School
Today was a whirlwind of various activities, starting with going to the house again! To make sure the key we got worked, me and my dad went to the house and checked to see if it worked. Fortunatly, it did. We walked through the house again, and even saw the neighbors!
Then we went down to lunch, at red robin! It was good going someplace familiar, and I got the usual. A crispy chicked salad and iced tea. Now, for some reason sweet tea is foreign here. WHY!? Someone, NOW, needs to show up with a jug of that sweetness and make sure everyone has it in their homes. I don't care how it happens, just get me some sweet tea!
Afterwords, the hunt still continued for a vet for the cats. Unfortunatly, we have yet to find a good vet that does cheap boarding.Overpriced scams. Who said that?
And lastly, I am getting signed up for high school! I won't tell you what school, for privacy and safety reasons blah blah blah, but I will tell you that the schools here look like something you'd see in a movie- glass walls and multiple stories. Amazingggg.
Not a lot was said, but don't worry, the week ahead will make up for it!

Time Zones
So yesterday I meant to publish a new post explaining everything that had happened, but being very tired and not feeling the best, I fell asleep at 8, much earlier than planned. So I apologize.
However, today I went to see the inside of the house! The house was beautiful, actually much prettier the second time I saw it, and this time no neighbors were outside :(
I walked around and saw the bedrooms, very small, and settled on one in the basement, the farthest away from everyone, but the second biggest. Plus, there was a bathroom downstairs.
Outside the yard is full of green and plants, very big compared to the other surrounding homes, and well kept. The neighbors both have dogs, and while I was walking around, two dogs began running towards me and yapping really loudly. Thankfully, there was a fence seperating us, but that didn't stop them from coming right up.
All in all, the house is great and I will be glad when I finally move in. I think the neighbors are going to be really friendly, I just hope they actually go outside. Unlike my neighbors now.
So for now, I'll leave you with these two beautiful photos.
God Bless

Kansas!
Alright, well as it turns out, I did end up leaving yesterday. My dad and I packed up the car (him for the most part) and loaded the catss in the back seat. With all that, we were off at 6:18 P.M.
We drove until 2:30 EST, which was 1:30, in Alabama, where we stayed. The cats have been OKAY, but are quite cranky, considering the fact that they are in a crate the entire ride. Yesterday, they were alright, but that is probably because of the fact that they were drugged and asleep a good portion of the trip. (Except Gypsy, who was hilarious.) Gypsy did this little scared cat thing, where she would jerk her headn around fast and what made it adorable was the fact her eyes were super dialated, and the fact she cornered herself in a corner. Now Shadow, being the younger of the two, was asleep for a bit, until he heard me tell my dad he was sleeping, then he would jerk awake and look around. He was drugged, but didn't have an anxiety collar on, unlike Gypsy, who did.
Right now, I am sitting in a motel 6 and using their wifi, which I am quite hesitant about. Today, we drove through Arkansas and Oklahoman, and right now I am in Kansas. So far the day has not been well. Weve gotton lost twice, because of the street signs. Unlike Georgia, where there is a warning a little bit before the exit, here there are signs literally right as you go to exit. Which is not helpful when the road your directions tell you to tak is under construction, and traffic is rushing all around you.
Since were talking about rushing traffic, what is it with people being rude on the road?! Countless times today we've had people cut us off and not even tell us thank you. Other times, when the roads get merged and we let people in front of us willingly, there isn't so much as a thank-you then, either. I mean, what is it? Is this some new forgeign thing now or something? Even when we got in front of people, my dad would wave back a thank you! And I bet you, those people behind us, looked at that hand wave and thought, "What is that guy doing?" Since nobody around here says thank you! Uggh.
At one point, the road we were supposed to take, was closed, so we had to face oncoming traffic, and because of the signs, we missed a turn, causing us to go the wrong was for two hours. And for some reason, farming is in because that is all we saw- farmland! An open field here, a plot of soil there, nothing but farmland! For two hours. And what happens when your in the middle of a desrted highway surrounded in grassfields? You get no bars. And what happens when said phone has no bars? You get NO SERVICE. So for two hours, I had zero service. Gee, thanks Verizon. But, it was OK, because I had the One Direction cd. So I listened to that for a while.
Other than that, the ride was good.
Alright, gonna go, my dad and I are going to Applebee's!

So for two hours, I had zero service. Gee, thanks Verizon. But, it was OK, because I had the One Direction cd. So I listened to that for a while.
Other than that, the ride was good.
Alright, gonna go, my dad and I are going to Applebee's!
God Bless,

Colorado Bound
Today's the day!!
Today my dad and I will be making the long 24 hours drive to Colorado to go see our house! I guess were excited, I know I am! I'm really glad, though, that he got to come home early yesterday from training and this just means that we have more time to get to Colorado. Even though our flight leave on the 14. I don't know exactly when were leaving today, but I am prepared to leave whenever. All of my stuff is packed now as we speak, and I am just waiting for the signal that were leaving!
Now, truth be told, my dad is pretty brave bringing me with him. The entire ride I plan on listening to One Direction, and nothing else. He probably won't care the first 2 hours, but after 3 days (expected travel time) he probably will be sick of me, and the boys. Oh well, he just needs to get used to it, since his daughter is a 24/7 fangirl...
That was pretty much my big news, the fact that were leaving today. I will take a lot of photos, and hope that the road is a pretty one! This is by far the longest ride I have ever been in, and I hope it goes smoothly. Especially since we will have two very cranky cats in the back seat....Eh :/
Anyways,
God Bless

So Excited!
Okay, just a heads up, this is going to be another crappy post. And, to be honest, I have no idea why I'm updating other than the fact that I am bored, and have nothing better to do. If you can't tell, I have way to much time on my hands. Oh well.
The entire day, just like all the rest, had been spent on the computer, to the point that where I only leave my room if an emergency. Like when I'm hungry. If I don't need to leave, I don't. However, in the morning, I began to pack. Currently I have 5 boxes packed. And, they're not big boxes, either. But, they're packed, and I have come to realize that I don't so much have big things, just a lot of small things. Maybe that's why I only have 5 boxes packed.
While packing, I decided to pull out my old sticker collection from when I was, I don't know, like 5, and go through to toss out most of it. Then I saw them. Their faces. At the bottom of the pile. It hit me like a wave, all the memories of when I was completely and utterly obbessed with them. The....er....Jonas Brothers. Alright, now you have to understand this was when I was in 5'th grade, and they were all the rage. I went through the stack and saw all the posters ranging from Nick Jonas to Dylan and Cole Sprouse from the Suite Life. I had no idea why I saved any of them, but it was funny to open up that sticker box and see them. Just like the stickers, I said goodbye (not literally...) and trashed them. It made me wonder, however, if my obbsession for One Direction is just a phase...or if it is finally a band I have fallen entirely in love with them.
On another note, I decided to make use of my spare time by trying to look up movies I have been wanting to see. The Notebook. Haha, that's it. The only one I can think of, anyway.
Since I am moving within the next 2 weeks, my mom told me that it was alright with her if I wanted my best friend to come and spend the night, given the fact chances are I won't ever see her again. Which stinks, since I've known her for 5 years, and she knows more about me then most. So far, the plan is that I go over to her house tomorrow and spend the night, and on Wednesday when I am dropped off, she spends the night at my house! It should be fun, and I will try to make the best of it, since, like previously stated, chances are that I won't see her for awhile. Even though I hope that the opportunity presents itself for her to fly over..I just don't think that's going to happen.
As always,
God Bless,

Simple, but Effective.
I really don't have much to say, other than the fact that my days in Georgia are dwindling down. So, I decided why not make a short and sweet post about my "Georgia Bucket List"! Here goes:
God bless,
Love,
Aislinn
<3
Okay...Let's end with a photo...
- Go hunting. Before I moved to Georgia to the place I live now, I had no idea what hunting was. However, throughout the years here, I have come to know that just about everybody in the south hunts. Knowing this, this made me want to hunt more-- to know what all the excitement was about! Sadly, however, this never happened.
- Ride A Four-Wheeler. Yet again, another one of those if you live in the south, you'd understand types of things. I have no idea what a four wheeler is, but I heard they're fun to ride (and wreck, but we won't go there)! I asked my friends, and most have in fact riden one. Unfortunatly, I never got the oppurtunity to try one out myself.
- Get my belly button pierced. Now granted, I could get this done in any state or place, but for a while now I've wanted it done, and was so close the other day! I just freak out. I get scared, not of the belly ring, but of the pain of getting it done. I have had numerous people tell me it doesn't hurt...But I refuse to believe them. My thing is, different people handle pain in different ways! Some people, can easily take pain, whilst others (me) are complete babies and hate pain. Thus, resulting in no belly button ring.
God bless,

Sorry..Couldn't help myself. Had to put the photos.
I know I have been a bit hazy on the subject of moving, but good news! I have plenty to share this post!
First off, I know when and where I am moving to. At first, it all depended on when someone would be moving into our house! (I'll get to that!) And, as of today, we now have a place to live when we get there! Now, at first it was very hard to find a home, since homes for rent are at a 99% occupancy rate, it makes it near impossible to rent a home from another state. Much less from the other side of the country.
Fortunatly for us, my mom found us a home that she LOVES and we will be moving into. And, fortunatly for me, it's more than one story!! (I just can't stand having a level house. Nope. Not happening.) AND I get my own room, since this house has enough! (At first my parents were going to have me and Maeve, my sister, share a room. NOT HAPPENING.)
Second, since we have a home, we now need people to move into our house, which we do! Thankfully, a couple is going to be renting our house and moving in shortly after we leave. I am sooo happy, because it feels like moving has been put on hold until we had people coming into our house! I hope they like it..
The third, and most important thing, is we have a date!! We now finally have a moving date! After a lot of preperation *Meaning zero* It was decided we are moving in 3 weeks. AHH I am legit so excited! I could just hug you through the computer screen! You know...if I knew you...and you weren't weird...
Anyway, I hope you will continue to read, and please follow, seriously..
God bless

Hypervenilating
#Indescribable Emotions.
That's how I felt when I found out that One Direction was coming to America. Yeah, myobsession, love for them, has escalated from just simply listening to their music...To staying up all night watching videos and looking at photos. Of course, I'm not the only one who does this *Oceon* so no need to be worried(:
Of course, my parents have zero idea my level of love for them. Seriously, they think I just like listening to their music. HA! No. It's much more then that, much more. And I'm sure the other Directioners out there can relate. And, after dropping hints like a rain in a thunderstorm, I was practicallly begging my parents to let me go to the One Direction concert in GA. Unfortunalyyyy, the answer has been a silent no. I say silent because I haven't flat-out asked them (I just dont do that, ya know?)
Anyway, a little off topic- but still about my boys! So, my mom and I were in the check-out lane in Walmart behind a group of people. And I saw a Justin Bieber magazine, and no I dont like him, but I took a photo and sent it to my friend. Then I said, "Mom, if only there was a One Direction magazine!" and she turned away from me. Probably because I dont shut up about them. Anyway, I turned and screamed. Except, the noise I made was one I didnt even mean to make, kinda like a mix of a choke-and-inhuman sound. And to add to it, not only was it a weird noise, but it was loud. Like, scream loud. And my mom turned, and so did the people in front of us in line-- all looking at me! I was doubled over laughing and my mom was like, "It's just a band!" and I said, "NO! They will NEVER be JUST A BAND, THEY ARE SO MUCH MORE." and she was like, "Well, I'll get it." and I jumped around. Yeah, I was that excited.
On the car ride home with my mom, we looked at all the photos while she asked me about them. She probably doesnt want to go back to the store with me anytime soon.
Anyway, I've gotta go. (No I dont I just dont have anything to do, so I'm logging off)

Catching Up
Well, I want to start by saying Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there! You are appreciated much more then you know!
Anyway, lately I have been busy with school. With the school year dwindling down to only 5 days left (Yes, five days!!) I have become very busy with school work and last minute projects. For example, in drama class my teacher decided that we should have a huge project due the week before school comes out. A directors book, she called it. Thankfully, I turned it in on time and I should get a good grade.
Yesterday was very crazy! Throughout the day my dad and I were running erands. One of the places was Best Buy, because my new computer had an issue. Every day, after about 20 minutes of usage, the computer screen would go white. And would block all access to the internet. The only real way to fix this was to restart the computer, except, after another 20 minutes it would repeat. So, my dad and I returned the computer and got a new one. So far, so good.
Later on in the day was the eighth grade dance at my school! My best-friend Jacquelyn (I can't use the letters that much because there are so many people with their names beginging with 'J'.) and I were both excited, and planned on going. We were going to try to look somewhat the same, but since we really don't, it didn't matter. Once I was done with makeup, hair, and outfit, I headed out to the car and my mom took pictures. (Don't worry, I'll upload them soon!)
Unfortunatly it began to rain, and my hair began to flatten out. (My mom curled it) But once I was out of the rain, all was well. Once the dance started, and Jacquelyn had shown up, we went and said hello to our teachers, who loved our dresses. Multiple times that night I was told I should wear my makeup like I did to school, and that it was gorgeous. (: Thanks, you guys!
Now for something completely off topic. One Direction. (Alright, I admit, I totally fangirled on the inside typing that!) They. Are. Amazing. They are sooooo good at what they do and I am so totally in love with them right now. My favorites have changed, though. And now it is a tie between Harry and Niall. (Correction to previous post, my cousin Oceon actually likes Louis, not Liam.) I can't decide, they're both amazing. And gorgeous. Which counts for something, right?

You Don't Know Your...
Beautiful.
On another account, school has been pretty slow. Not much is happening, and thankfully I got checked out early today to go home...and listen to my One Direction CD on the way (:
Tomorrow should be interesting, however. Since Aidan is getting confirmed on Sunday, his sponsor, my grandparents, and cousins are all coming to our house to see my brother get confirmed! It should be fun!!
Gotta go, talk soon!
God Bless

If only you saw, what I could see, then you'd understand why I want you so desperately.
Right now I'm looking at you and I cant believe you don't know (oh-oh)
You Don't Know Your Beautiful.
<3
Yep, pretty much what every girl wants to hear.
And One Direction is amazing for that.
Let me explain...
A few months ago, I heard an amazing song. One called, "What Makes You Beautiful". It became a very catchy tune, and soon very popular. A few weeks ago, after continuously listening to that same song over and over, I decided to see what other songs One Direction has sung.
It turns out, they are SUPER good and amazing. Literally. It went from "Gotta Be You", to "Everything About You". Each song got better and better. And I guess with all this being said, you can call me a Directioner. And, as it turns out, my cousin also just so happens to be in love with the band, too! She likes Liam, while I like Harry instead.

The Computer Crisis
On most occasions I am a happy person with a happy mood, however after waiting weeks just to get my computer fixed, I find it hard to look on this situation with a positive spin.
Lets start a few weeks back, starting with the day my computer broke. The screen was fine. The keyboard? Fine. Everything was A-OK, until it wouldn't turn on. Literally, my computer just sat there, frozen in sleep. I was worried, since my computer has never acted like that before, but I felt a lot better, hopeful even, once my mom took the computer to a nearby shop in Columbus. The estimated due was March 20'th. If only.
Days go by, and there is still no word from the computer shop. (I'll call it A's) So, after days of hearing nothing from A's Computers, I decided to have my mom call the shop. After the phone call my mom informed me that the computer place has yet to recieve the part. Great.
Days later my mom calls again, only to have A's tells her that they did receive a part, it just isn't the right one. Because of this, the shop told my mom they are ordering a new part, and this one is the right one.
During Spring Break, my Dad got a call, from A's! He told me that they have yet to get the part, and are currently in an argument with another company, the one that "sent" the part.
*Alright, now your caught up!!*
2 days ago, while doing homework, I asked my mom if she had gotten a call yet from A's computers. She told me she had, but the piece they ordered was the wrong part. Again. This made my extremely aggravated. On a scale of 1-10, 1 being angry and 10 being mad-tears, I was on 11. I was so mad! Months I had been waiting for my computer, and this company has the NERVE to tell me that the ENTIRE MOTHERBOARD IS FRIED? Yeah. Sureee.
Because of this, I have been computer-less for the past 2 months. I am mad.
Just wanted to share this with you, since I havent been updating that much!

CRCT
Sigh. I have so much to do this week, and it all starts tomorrow.
Yeah, the CRCT is a big deal, sure! However, in eighth grade it becomes super important, like if you don't pass this test you won't go to high-school important. So, you can see where I come from when I say that the teachers at my school put a lot of pressure on you. Talk about crazy.
Days before the test, however, my teachers try to craaaaaaaam everything into our heads that we should know. Or at least what's on the test, since usually days before the test the teachers teach us things we have not learned. Did I hear someone say procrastination?
Today, being one of those cram-everything-into-our-brains-at-the-last-moment days, I definatly had the odds not in my favor. I mean, not only did I have work in every class (which I usually do, but not as much as today) but I also had homework! This does sound ridiculous but only because my school has a school-wide rule which is: It is against school rules to give a child any form of homework during the week of CRCT testing. And you know what's crazy? The fact that my math teacher feels that the rules dont apply to her! But guess what? THEY. DO.
Mulan practice has been breezing by! The next two weeks are called "Tech Weeks" which basically means we (the cast) have two weeks to perfect every little twist and tuck until the play is perfect! In Tech Week spirit, my drama teacher has instructed us that practice is every day of the school week, and she isn't taking the "CRCT" as an excuse.
I hope your lives are not as hectic as mine is, but just as fun!
God Bless
Love

Oh My...
Wow, it's been a month already? No, more then that... It's been about a month, and a half since I've post. Man, do I have the stories to tell.
Since March is over (and I have forgotten most of what happened) I will tell you everything that has happened so far, for the month of April.
Recently I had a HUGE research project due. Except, there was one snag. My computer broke. Yeah, I could use that as an excuse as to why I haven't posted in so long, but I won't. However, I had 2 projects due, and unfortunately, the finished one was on my computer, and not my flash-drive. To this day my computer is still being worked on and, don't worry, I did finish my other project, the one on the flash-drive.
On the topic still for my computer... Yesterday when I went to school, my teacher asked if I had gotten my project yet, I told her I didn't and she drew out a long (and I mean long) sigh. She covered her face with her hands, too. Unfortunately for the both us of, I don't have my computer, and boy does it stink.
Drama at school has been OK. Not much has been good, since most of my friends aren't in it anymore. Added to this loneliness, I don't have many people to talk to, and I oftentimes I am lonely. Urggg.
My core classes have been good (hehe, core classes) and I, thankfully, have many people to talk to in them. I am trying to keep my grades up, and so far I have all A's and 2 B's.
SPRING BREAK!
That's today. My mom booked my family a cabin in Tennessee (For everyone except my dad, since he has to work) and I am looking forward to going. What is cooler, is that my moms friend and her kids are going to be coming with us! Which is cool because her daughter is my age !
Talk soon
God Bless

Creatively Yours
That's the name of the costume place that the Mulan cast will be getting their costumes from. Well, after waiting a while to go to Creatively Yours, my sister, and Mom, all drove around town looking for this costume place.
We went up streets, and down roads. Across avenues, and over bridges. And after driving around for minutes, we finally found the place.
It was located on a little corner-shop, with some cute boutiques next door. I got out of the car, and walked over to the sign on the door, which read: CLOSED.
Great. Juuuuust great. We drove all over town, to find it closed. And not only was this bad, this was super bad.
Now, I'm not a procrastinator, but this was the last day to go get a fitting. And, since I didn't have school today, it made perfect sense to go on a day without school, instead of struggling to find time during the week.
So, since I have joined the play's Faceb*ok group, I decided to upload a little post of mine. Here is the post:
Parent of kid: They are open these days and times, _______ ________
Drama teacher(!!!): You need to call to make an appointment.
Actress in the play: I called to, and they didn't answer. Can I go another day?"
Now, the fact that my teacher commented, was, in fact, the one comment I was nervous to see. I didn't know how she'd take it, or if she would just ignore it entirely. But, when she commented, I felt like she treated me like I was stupid. I put in the post, and I quote, "I called 3 times this weekend to make an appointment." And her comment? "you need to call to make an appointment." Um, hello, did I not just say that I called? Multiple times, in fact? Ugh, you know, I am not a little kid. Or stupid.

Macbeth!!!!!
Alright, so after telling you guys for a while now about the play Macbeth for drama class, I have some news.
Yesterday was the play! I was super nervous, I mean, I haven't been in a play since 6'th grade, and I was happy I was in it, I was just very nervous! Usually, when I get nervous, my teeth will chatter, hard. Then when I get on stage, I am OK, but once I'm off, I want to get right back up on stage! It's weird, but in the end, I like getting up on stage and performing.
The play started at 7, the seventh graders were going to be going first, and practice was from 3-7. Yeah, it was long, but fun!
When everyone showed up, it finally sank in that I would be performing. In front of everyone. Eeep! :S But, I calmed down, and focused, and the play went great! I admit, I didn't think it was going to be that good, but it was good! I did feel awkward at the end, waving my stick around like a loon during the fight scene, but hey!, it was OK.
I am excited about the upcoming nine weeks at school. A lot of stuff will be happening, but it will be good, and exciting! Monday, my Mom and I will be going to get my Mulan costumes for the play, and this upcoming week will start a new 9 weeks, so who knows what crazy stuff will happen!?

Lent
Today was Ash Wednesday. This means it was the beginning of Lent. And just like every year, I had to find something good to give up, or sacrifice, for forty days. After much consideration, I decided to give up my phone. Am I crazy? I haven't gone more then a week without my phone! Much less forty days.
Well, since today was Lent, and I had given up my phone, I left to the bus stop today with my phone on my nightstand and not in it's usual place. My purse. Now, I know that this is going to sound a bit over dramatic, but I felt normal without my phone. That is, until the end of the day. The end of the day I wanted my phone. Didn't need my phone, but I wanted it pretty darn bad. I would look at it, a lot, and was tempted more then once to grab it and press the ON button to wake it up. I didn't realize how much I wanted my phone. How much I used my phone. I am fighting the urge here to say that I ''need'' my phone, can't you tell?
After doing my homework, I called my Mom in my room. And yes, this was about the cellular object positioned on my nightstand.
Me: "Mom?"
Mom: "Yeah?"
Me: "Can I change what I gave up for Lent?"
My Mom smiled, she knew what I gave up. She knew it would be hard, and so did I! I had a whole conversation with God last night over how I would be strong and not break down, keep going and not use the phone. But, for 39 more days? I must be out of my mind!
Mom: "Well, what were you thinking?"
So I explained to her how difficult it was without my phone, and she was fine with it, I just needed to find something to give up that is equally as important, or pretty darn hard.
However, even though my Mom is cool with me swapping, I am not. Until I find something equally if not better to give up, then I wont use my phone. Right now it just sits there, taunting me. Mocking me. But, I must be strong. Did Jesus give up? No. And neither. will. I.

Today school was good.
Science class was interesting. We took a test today, and most of the students said they made higher than an 80%. Honest me said I got a 60%. Crappy, I know. However, after class this kid stayed behind to tell her that he heard kids cheating on their test. The teacher told him that for being honest she would bump mine and his grade up to an 80! I am glad, and when I told my Mom, she said, "Sometimes it pays to be honest." {Well, all the time!}
In Math class a boy sprayed Windex on his face {all over it} and then tried to wipe it off with a wet wipe. After being told he could die from the Windex-skin contact, he freaked and got in trouble. Windex, really?
In Language Arts my teacher told a kid she was going to have a stroke if he didn't stop reading while she was giving a lecture. What is a stroke?
So for now, I must go, my bedtime is soon. Goodnight to all!
