Sooooo looooong since I posted!

Have to make this short and sweet.
I'm going to Creation tomorrow through Sunday.
Won't be able to post prolly.
I miss you all.
Will try to post in the morning before I leave but I make no promises (and I would break them if I did). :)
Will post as soon as I get back.
Lego did you introduce Belegwen? She's soooo busy now that's why she hasn't been on I'll tell her to post soon.
I miss you all.
Just watched Sleepless in Seattle like the world's second best chick flick (jealous look from Legolas) haha. If you come over some time we'll watch a chick flick.
I'll miss you while I'm gone but I'll "see" you as soon as I get back!
~Verya
P.S.
Guess who's gonna be there Lego? Your fave...should I say it? Maybe not. I don't want to start a fight.
Oh who cares...you don't know where I live, Eowyn and MJ won't tell you, and I'll be over the mountains!
*shouts* "Third Day!!!!!!! *runs off before anna kills her*
I'll miss you!!! See ya soon!
Nice to meet you L.

Very upset......no one is posting.....

Argh!!!!! Where is everybody?
Eowyn, you're back from your trip and you haven't said boo accept "Hi I'm back."
Belegwen, you're busy with fair stuff, but you should post again. How can you have a verse of the day if you don't post one every day?
Legolas, I haven't heard one word from you since the ninth. Where are you?!?!?!?!?
Em, you haven't posted or emailed in days...did everyone leave or something?
Vani, you're on summer break...did you go on summer vacation too?
WHERE IS EVERYONE???????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????
I miss you guys! I finally have a little free time and now I can't talk to any of you.
BTW Belegwen, my dad actually picked up some astroturf carpet stuff Wednesday, so I won't be needing any from you, but thank you for offering! I'll see you Monday and bring your earrings.
Well, everyone, I really have nothing to say since none of you are posting or emailing anyway.
~Verya

All better!

Ok, my blog is back to normal...no more problems signing in! So...why isn't anybody posting?!? You guys are like, not there or something. I'm so busy but my free time is boring now...not that I don't have other things to do *coughsfaircoughs*
So, 6 days. I know Belegwen's not ready lol jk. Belegwen. I'm not either. But I got so much done today! I finished my paper bag scrapbook, got all my stuff together, cut my cage floor out (which Comet loves to dig on (she's declawed and my cage floor is carpet)!), made the baseball diamond, finished my sign, cut out my dome, and printed my poems and mounted them on paper. BTW before I forget you left your earrings at my house Belegwen do you want me to bring them on Monday? I can't wait for Monday!!!
So now all I need to do is make the walls, which will be fairly simple. I'll take pics at Fair and post them 'k?
Oh yeah. and make my pirate outfit. Not so simple. I wan't to make a vest thingy and pants. I have two yards of fabric. I'm sensing lotsof piraty looking patches here...
Real pirates do their own sewing. You'll see what I mean lol. It's...yeah. Interesting.
I'm gonna take another bath tonight. I've been taking like two every day for the last 3 days, one in the morning to get clean, and one at night to relax. I'm so busy and stressed. It's hard to concentrate. Oh yeah and math. I skipped yesterday (didn't have time) so I have four lessons to do tonight (which is actually probably what I should be doing now...) but it's pretty easy with the new curriculum. Then three tomorrow on the way to (oh joy) the dentist.
Don't get me wrong, I like my dentist. He's really awesome. He does hunting, fishing, owns a ranch in Montana, is a geologist, and a dentist, and get this: he's missing the fingers on his right hand from the second knuckle! (Except his thumb) It's so weird, but he does so well that you'd never even know it! It's amazing to me that he can do so much. And he's a Christian and a fun guy. He's been our family dentist since my mom was younger than me! And my grandparents go to him too. Plus he lives like and hour and a half away and we still go to him. So I like my dentist. It's just...with braces. Hard. You get the picture.
Arghhh!!! I can't get the dumb pic to work! It's really tempramental (sp.?)Like, it works when it wants to, and it wont' when it doesn't want to. It's really frustrating. Oh well, not the end of the world.
My cat is high on catnip again...
I guess that about sums my day up...Fair. I'm really excited though. If any of you guys could come let me know and Belegwen and I will make sure to be at the cat tent when you guys come...or somewhere where we could meet.
I really need a relaxation bath.
See ya'll later (if you ever post, I'm beginning to think maybe Anna lost the key to the closet she locked you all in and she's run away because she feels so bad. Is that what happened?)

New Friend Blogger

Hi Everbody!
Ok, we have a new blogger!!! My friend Belegwen has agreed to join the blogging circle, and I told her I'd give you all her address:
www.belegwensblog.blogspot.com
So you all have to go because she is like the funniest, blondest, awesomest person I've ever met (and she's over here cracking up and I think she's gonna smack me for calling hes blond :)) We're watching the Newsies and we just set up her blog...so you all have to go to it! She really wants to meet everyone so I'll send out an email and give you her address so you can get to know her ok?
P.S.
How do you get a one-armed blond to fall out of a tree?
~Verya
P.P.S.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me...(no spoilers)

Hello!
Ok, I woke up an hour and a half ago. Seriously, that's what midnight premiers will do to you. But oh my gosh it was sooooo gooooood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's see, Lego should be going to see it right now.
So, I won't give anything away, I promise. Just know, it's not quite as good as the first one (in my opinion) but it was still a really awesome movie...definitely worth buying. Captain Jack Sparrow is, of course, as good as ever (just as weird) and so're the rest of the crew. Ok, enough on that.
Dad and I are about to leave to go camping with my youth group...so I have to make this quick. "I want tomorrow" is now one of my new favorite Enya songs, along with "Marble Halls."
I just cleaned the bathroom at my dad's office (because there wasn't enough filing to do and we're leaving soon). I know it doesn't sound bad, but seriously, you guys haven't been to my dad's office. It's really gross. It's not really anyone's fault, just people are working and don't have time to clean, if you know what I mean. That's why they pay me to do it. :) It wasn't so bad.
I'm sorry if this is kind op slpoppy I have a cat rubbing up against my hand right now.
My dad's office cat is worse than my cat Lil. She's neurotic. Really neurotic. And she's a tortiseshell which are known for beeing very needy. So she just invietes herself up her. And ewwwww her nose is wet!
Well, that's about it. I'll post when I get back. Everybody have a great weekend!

"Is this a dream?" "No." "I thought not. If it were there'd be rum."

So much time...so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

Yeah, don't ask me about the title. It just popped into my head and came out on the keyboard.
Guess what? 6 (not 1,2,3,4, or 5, but 6) Enya CDs came in at the library today!!! One of them is Enya only time the collection and it has four CDs, then Amarantine came and so did Paint the Sky With Stars. This will keep me busy for a while...
What do you think of this song? I think it's beautiful:

Together Forever
I will never stop loving you,
Though we grow old and grey.
At least we will do it together.

And I will always believe in you,
Even if you lose your way.
For better or for worse, always and forever.

For you see, each day I love you more,
More than yesterday and less than tomorrow.
Each moment we spend together, we're making history
That will be a part of all our lives, you and me together, forever…

The part I underlined was based on a quote somebody said...I forget who.
Haha! I finally made the picture thingy work! I think it's just been my computer acting up...who knows with dial-up? This is a picture of a fire and ice rose. Isn't it gorgeous?
Oh, I won't be around this weekend...Dad and I are going camping with my youth group, so you can post and stuff, just...I won't be here. But I love coming home to mail, don't you?
Okie dokie, more tomorrow...
One day, two minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My weird cat, colleges, and other random things that have absolutely nothing in comon

Hello melloni nin!
So my cat. Yeah. Right now she's sitting in the middle landing of our stairs meowing her weird meow. I really can't describe it. Eowyn and MJ know what I mean, but like, my cat cannot meow the normal conventional cat meowing way. She has this higher throaty vibrating sort of meow. It's really weird. And the reason she's in the middle landing of my stairs doing it is because she is high. On catnip. Seriously, she gets her little catnip mouse, and she carries it around, then she always sits in the same spot and meows her head off.
Oh wait, she's done. Now she's running all over the house chasing nothing for no reason.
Yep, that's myLil. Wicked little thing. Comet (the other one) is awesome! As Jane Austin would say, "One has all the good and the other all the appearance of it. There is just enough goodness between them for one man, and I am inclined to think it is all Comet."
So I paraphrased, but it's the truth.
Hey did anyone go to that blog I talked about?
BRB time for a pizza break...
Back. Pizza is like the only leftover I actually like. There are a few, but pizza is by far the best.
Ok I'm rambling. Sorry.
I'm working on my cage decorations for Fair. Mariners baseball. My oh my. I'll post pictures when it's all done, 'k?
Ever close your eyes/ever stop and listen/ever feel alive/and you've nothing missing/you don't need a reason/let the day go on and on...
So...colleges. Yes. When we were doing our history course, we visited Pullman and Cheney, and got to tour Wazzu and Eastern. I'm not going to talk much about Eastern. Don't get me wrong, it's a fine college, with a lot to offer, just not a lot to offer in my areas...the arts. Reading, writing, music, drama, etc. Ok not drama right Em? Haha. Eastern focuses a lot more on like phychology and education and child development, which is great, but it's not what I'm interested in. I really liked Wazzu, it has a lot to offer in the arts area. A music ensamble, a student-run newspaper, creative writing and journalism, foreign languages. You can even room with a foreign student to get a better idea of like foreign life and languages and stuff, which I thought was reall cool. They are extremely protective of their students, esp. women, and very strict about drugs, alchohol, etc. which is also very good. Another thing I liked was Pullman. Just the atmosphere of the 'college town.' They have a lot of good deals for WSU students, and the whole atmosphere is very friendly, etc. They have a big campus, but everything is so close together that it's all in walking distance. They also have a transport system for students who have a little farther to go, say you had to go to the other side of the campus in between two classes and didn't have much time. Sports are, of course, a big thing. You get a Cougar Card and it will pay for itself in less than four football games. Baseball included too...that kind of speaks for itself haha. I can't say I'm wild about the thought of being a Cougar (we've always been Huskies just 'cause it's more convenient) but it's easy to change that. All in all, I'm leaning towards WSU, but I still want to tour Central and a few others.
One day, seven hours and 23 minutes til POTC II!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I'm just a little bit excited can't you tell?
I suppose that's all. I have a pretty boring life don't I? No, I know I don't, there's just not much to write about.
Oh wait there was one thing that I've been dying to tell you all! Guess what? You'll never guess. Ok I'll tell you. When I was in Coeur d'Alene last week, I got bored and didn't really have anything to do. (I had already posted so don't think I was neglecting you!) I got on Ebay and was looking up random things just because, and I typed in "Lord of the Rings soundtrack limited edition." One item came up. The entire trilogy limited edition soundtracks, 2 bids, ends in two days, for $16 plus $5 shipping. $21 dolloars for the whole thing!!! So I thought about it and talked to my parents, and then I waited. I put a bid on it about 5 minutes before it was supposed to end, expecting to be beaten at the last minute (like it always happens), but no one else bid on it, and I ended up winning for $21!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It came on Monday, and that's what I'm listening to now. I was so excited I couldn't believe it when I actually won!!! It's really cool...like it comes with these card thingys that have pictures of different characters from the movies...and yeah, it's awesome.
You don't have something? You want it? You can buy it on Ebay. Whatever it is, you can buy it on Ebay.
And it's so true.
Eowyn and MJ got their let's see...ring, evenstar pendant, and was it a brooch? I can't remember. What a deal!
Ok so now you know everything about my simple complicated life...or is it simply complicated?
You get the picture.
Arghhhh!!!!!!!! I can't get a picture to work on my blog...I'll try it again later...

Lots of Stuff

Hi everyone,
I'm sitting here typing with my hair up in a bun, with a fire and ice rose in the bun, and I'm feeling very elegant. Problem is, I have to take it out soon...
Well, I got online feeling hyper, now I'm literally crying. I'm not sad, I just found the blog of an Indian woman:
http://poornimavijayan.blogspot.com/
You have to go to it. She's a short story writer and she is truly amazing. I really can't say anything more just go to the blog and read a little...if you are emotional you'll probably cry too. She wrote this, and it describes my feelings exactly.

"I have always written things which I have never given to people to read. Yes, I take very badly to criticism. Which by itself might prove that I am not a very good person at writing. I don’t know. And I don’t really want to. Writing offers me the escape that I need. I let my characters do things I cannot. And I sometimes make characters of the things I have done."

Yeah I wish I could take credit for this one, but it was a comment on one of her posts:

Have you ever . . . ........Have you ever been lost in the mist?Have you ever found temptation so hard to resist? Have you ever tried to cry, but your tears don't seem to bare?Have you ever wondered why life is never fair? Have you ever loved so much you thought you would die?Have you ever questioned the reasons why? When words don't seem to matter anymoreAnd a heart is nothing but an open door When you let someone in, only for them to walk right outWas that your fault? Is that what love is about? Why are decisions sometimes so hard to make?Why is a heart so easy to break? Sometimes I think that love is just a lieBecause you learn the truth as time passes by Heaven is merely a footstep awayDo you live for the future, do you love for the day Do you prey for the moment or the road ahead?Do you lye in misery all alone in your bed? Loneliness is sometimes better to keepTo avoid the world before you fall too deep I often want to give up this fightIt doesn't change my fears, I fear both day and night To be broken like a window, shattered like glass, to let in the rainI can't bare the cost I won't take that pain So i'll walk away and think of nothing but sorrowAnd hope my days are brighter, i'll look forward to tomorrow Have you ever . . . ........

I'll stop now and get onto other things. I'm a struggling writer. Some of you may not have known that, but my two worst faults are: Procrastination and not accepting criticism. I'm working on it though, slowly but surely. I'm also trying to write a little bit every day. Would you guys want me to post stuff that I write? And if I do I want criticism. And be honest, got it?
Well, I was gonna tell you all about colleges and stuff, but I spent so much time online looking at other peoples' blogs etc., that I'm dead tired now and I'm going to bed. Anything I write now wouldn't be interesting.
So, more tomorrow...I'm gonna procrastinate and put it off till my mom's co-op board meeting, then I'll try for a really long post if I have time!
Bye now!
Namarie
~Verya
And I wanted to put a pic on of a fire and ice rose but now it won't work...go figure...so I'll try again tomorrow.
One day, 22 hours and 49 minutes!!!

I'm back....almost

Hey, well I'm back in Coeur d'Alene after camping for three days, but more about that tomorrow...
I have to make this kinda quick because I only have ten minutes before I have to get off the computer.
First off, thank you everyone for getting me hooked on Enya. At first I loved her voice but wasn't sure about the style. Then I read the lyrics that I couldn't understand the first time, and listened a few more times, and now I love it. I'm really hoping to have more in at the library soon!
Darn it! I can't remember the other thing I was gonna write about...
Well meanwhile, I thought I might mention that I've been to two colleges on this trip (Wazzu and Eastern) and we're just kind of touring, which is actually really fun...college shopping...you know - trying to pick a place you may end up at for four years. I'm leaning towards WSU right now, but I'll elaborate tomorrow. Tomorrow is all free, and Sunday we're heading back home, but for right now I have to go.
See ya all later!
Hope you aren't too tired Vani, thanks for keeping up on communications while everyone is gone!
