    it's been so long since i've written in this that i had to look up my user name and password again. how sad is that? so yeah, kinda lonely here. slept over at tom's last night with nick. it was good to see those guys again. i see nick all the time but it was good for all of us to hang out again. even got to talk to lauren for like ten seconds last night. tom's mom called his house and i just happened to be there so she got lauren and i got to just pretty much say hi. hung out next door for a while when i got home. neighborhood party type thing. it was a party

    haha... i don't understand how people like adrienne manage to update this thing like every day. sometimes even twice a day. i just don't get it. it's been so long that i don't even know where to start and i don't even remember everything that has happened since i last wrote. got two new teachers today. kendall and richmond, both pretty cool but both seem like they're gonna be pretty hard. ordered some new cleats online, orange vapors, they're wicked awesome!

    midyears went ok. i took three and i know grades for two. one was good and one was horrible. still don't know about the third...

    got lots of hw tonight... come on, it's only the first day of third quarter and they're already piling it on!

    Skiing!
    so we had a race today, the first race i went to since i couldn't make it to the one last friday. but yeah it was pretty fun i guess. i thought it was going to be a lot worse than it actually was. it was like four loops around this big winding track. couple of hills, but nothing severe. i raced jv and i don't know how i did really. i missed the finish line. i went to the track to do another lap and i missed the finish line. it was embarrassing, i lost more than a minute off my final time i'm sure. also when i was going up this hill this kid's pants were falling down right in front of my face. not pleasant. then he fell in front of me. wow.

    school was good today. double chem was pretty good. got a formal lab due next week but the lab itself isn't hard to understand which should make the formal lab pretty easy to do. but i'll find out when i decide to do it. which, knowing me, will probably end up being the night before. not much homework for the second night in a row, it's nice.

    haha wow, this place is messy. and it's my mess... gotta go clean up

    hi... the only reason i feel like updating this right now is cause i'm seriously procrastinating on this chem project. wow mine is so bad. i'm just hoping i'll be able to pass off as intellectual when i do my presentation by just babbling on about the uses of baking soda :-). cause you can do things with baking soda that i had no idea. you can freaking wash your hair with baking soda if you wanted to. if anyone is interested, just let me know, i'll give u the details... haha, yeah. so the weekend was good... soccer was fun. two successful games, 7-1 in the first and 6-0 in the second. some jerks in the second game but nothing to get upset about... last night went to donna's play with nick, lauren, elyssa, beth, and tom. everybody went back to elyssa's afterwards. it was fun. today, just been hanging around doing hw, and watching football on and off. actually watched all of the chiefs-colts game. pats are playing the colts. i'm actually kinda worried. peyton manning is so nasty, and he's sneaky too ;-). neways, i really have to finish up this project so i can enjoy the rest of my night. until next time...

    wow i got seriously beat on today. our family came over for a xmas/new year's dinner thing and we had 3 little boys there from ages 3 to 2nd grade. they had a great time just torturing me and my brother. we were in "prison" for a little while (aka the couch) and they were "beating us up" (aka smacking us with plastic swords, which hurt after numerous beatings!) so yeah, overall a good time. awesome food. even better dessert, AMAZING CAKE! hehe brought some to lauren. she liked it. watched part of pirates of the caribbean for the second time in a week. it's still good tho. and i can kinda quote it now :-) it was fun. home now. cherishing the last couple of days of vacation....

    wow i had an awesome weekend. it was the most fun i've had in a while. went to okemo in vermont with tom and his dad. a weekend of skiing, well snowboarding for me and skiing for them. the first day was kinda rough. i had a lesson with this austrailian guy named glenn. he was pretty funny. very paitient to put up with me through that lesson seeing as how it took us like 20 minutes just to make it down the hill cuz i kept falling so much. yeah the second day was much better. i actually got up the mountain with tom and his dad and we did some really cool trails. it was a lot of fun. i almost royally screwed up my knee though. i almost felt it like snap on one of my falls. it was close. overall it was a lot of fun. it was cool just to spend some time with tom too, i don't see him too much anymore. got home sunday night. have kinda just been chilling out since then. lauren came over last night and we watched finding nemo. i hadn't seen it but that was her 10th time or something seeing it in 3 days. hehe she got it for xmas and hasn't been able to stop watching it. so yeah, next major thing is new years! think i've got plans with adrienne and the group but not sure... should find out...

    Leaving for a while...
    so yeah, like the title says, i'm going to be leaving for a while. i'm leaving tomorrow to go skiing with tom and nick for the weekend in vermont. i thinking we're coming back monday or sunday. so just don't expect anything posted during that time, probably wouldn't post anything even if i was here though. so yeah xmas was pretty good here. didn't really get a lot cuz i got a few early presents earlier this month, like my skis and my rollerblades and stuff for skiing. hehe we gave my dad a vibrating office chair. i'm sitting in it right now. it's pretty sweet. last night i realized just how important communication is with people, and even more so with people you really care about. i knew it was important, but a conversation last night proved that it is vital. so yeah, leave some comments. i'll read 'em when i get back.

    these crossword puzzles are bringing me to the breaking point of dismay and frustration... ooh i sounded like a poet or a songwriter or something just now. but seriously these things are hard. they give them out at school and i take them sometimes just to see if i can do them or not and i obviously can't. lauren and i got pretty far doing one together but yeah, i didn't really do much. i got one really good one, it was like effigy or something... yeah baby. so today i went skiing, it was fun. conditions were much better than yesterday which obviously makes the skiing more enjoyable. and i can already feel myself getting stronger, and even better maybe. cause i'm not that good. i worked out with the C team today. there's not even a C team, he just made it cause there's a bunch of people who have never skiied before and still need to work on technique. yeah i'm one of them. my big problem is that my skis get too far apart. but whatever, i'm having fun. so yeah, back to the crosswords

    so my bday weekend was pretty good. i didn't get my permit, that was probably the only downside. my mom wasn't feeling well all weekend and my dad had tons of stuff to do so neither of them could take me. i also haven't gotten elyssa's notes from driver's ed so i don't know how well i would have done on the test. and who wants to be driving in this weather that we have now. it would be awesome if we had a snow day tomorrow.... hehe then i would have slept late 4 days in a row seeing as how i didn't go to school friday, that would be awesome. i would even welcome a delay of school. but stupid concord school officials are too stupid and they won't give us a stupid snow day cause they're stupid. neways, today lauren and i hung out for a while at her house. it was fun, she made me the most incredible card for my birthday. it had a picture of us on it that she drew and it had tons of amazing stuff written on it. i was very impressed. so yeah, pray for this snow to continue through the night...

    it's my birthday! YEEEEEHAAA! lol, sorry. but yeah, i'm excited. or i was, the day is kinda almost over. and all the fun parts are over. we already had cake and dinner and stuff. and the group minus beth came over and we all had to hang out for a while. then adrienne and elyssa had to leave and so it was me tom nick and lauren. that was fun. tom is the funniest kid ever. he spent like 30 minutes looking for his waterbottle doing like modeling poses and stuff. it was funny. nick had put the waterbottle outside, so tom had no idea. he was just pacing around. wow, it's still funny. and one of them put the glass head in my bed and put a beanie baby inside it. i don't know who it was. but whoever it was, thanks. it was really nice.

    aaaah. formal chem lab. got to go

    once again. it's been a while. i haven't had any time to update this thing. mostly cause i've hung out with lauren for 4 days in a row or something like that. but it's been a party. i don't think i could ever get tired of her. that's one thing that i really like. hanging out with a person who you know you could never get tired of, and we never get bored either. we always have something to do. it could be something really stupid or something really cool, but it's always fun. so yeah i think i'm going to get my ski boots today which means i'm going to get my skis today which means i'm going to be able to ski very soon! WHOO HOO! i'm excited. and tomorrow is the playoffs for indoor soccer and saturday is my birthday! this weekend should be awesome. i really can't wait. hopefully i'll pass the stupid permit test thing. hehe i think it's funny that you only have to get a 70 percent or something like that. think about the drivers that our country is putting out on the road :-) as elyssa pointed out to me, we're not actually putting them on the road, it's just a permit. so i guess that makes sense. but still. anyways, i've had a good day so far. one of the more boring days that i can remember, but i got to act out hamlet in english class and that was actually fun. i used to act a lot when i was younger. it was one of my most favorite things to do... and sing, hehe i used to be such a ham :-) wow, i'm gonna go now

    wow i didn't update this yesterday. and i didn't have a virus this time. i'm sorry for all my loyal readers. i know there's at least two of you :-) so yeah yesterday i went snowboarding with lauren!!! it was so much fun. the most fun i've had in a long time. i started on the bunny hill and i wasn't very good. i couldn't even go up on the towrope without falling over. it was borderline embarrassing. especially since there was this one kid who was like 7 who was talking trash to me. i was at the top of the bunny hill, or as lauren calls it "the bunny straightaway", and i was on my butt buckling my binding. and this kid was coming up the tow rope and he was like, "i'm better at skiing but you're definitely better at falling down" or something stupid like that. it was annoying, he was annoying. there was also this really mean mom and dad who were like harrassing their kid. they were like swearing in front of him and making him ski down the bunny hill when he obviously didn't want to. the kid was like 4 too. it was really sad. lauren and i were about to kick some ass. and they definitely followed us around the mountain. we saw them all over the play. and the dad kept complaining about his "damn ankle" that "hurt like a bastard". he was a jerk. we also saw pej, rachel, chris, chris, madeline, and allie there. that was pretty cool. i definitely took out chris when i was coming down the hill. that was hilarious, i warned him i was coming tho. it could have been a lot worse. but i made it down one of the blues at nashoba without falling down once on the snowboard, and that includes turns and stuff. it was really cool. lauren and i are definitely going again sometime.

    so today, just another day at school. woke up early to check the news hoping school would be closed. it wasn't, that was sort of a let down. and then i got to school and took the hardest chem test of my life! it was bad. i was kinda in a bad mood afterwards. then i had study and didn't do much. got back a math test, got a 78. it was respectable. rest of the day was pretty normal. couldn't go to skiing in the afternoon cause my skis aren't in yet. the guy who i'm buying my skis from is actually letting me borrow his though tomorrow until mine come in. he's cool. he knows my mom cause she brings skis and bikes to him all the time so he's a nice dude. hung out with lauren for a while. went to her show... it was a fun day. now i gotta go finish importing some music. adios

    have you ever loved someone so much that it like physically hurts when they leave u? it's not a good feeling. but i guess it's good that you love someone that much.

    last night i had soccer. two games, 8 and 9 o'clock. we won both of them by pretty big margins. we won the first game 8-4 and the second game 7-1. i scored a total of 5 goals in those two games. and i had four goals in the first game. yeah i was pretty beat after that first game. but the second game was just fun. we completely controlled the entire game. the other team didn't have a chance from the beginning. it was good to have jean and brian back, but caleb wasn't there cause he has some sort of esophogas infection. get better man. fred came over afterwards as usual. it was fun. he and my brother squared off in some tekken 4. hehe it was pretty funny to watch.

    got lots of sleep last night. i physically got out of bed at around 11:30. lauren was already over, she and fred were playing video games. fred beat her in everything. but then we all played boggle and lauren destroyed us. there was no hope for us. she's an animal at that game. so then fred left around 1 and lauren and i hung out until 2. she had to leave and go buy skiing stuff. and we're going snowboarding tomorrow i think. that should be tons of fun, if i don't hurt myself too badly.

    fred's here, we're basically just chilling out. we're in the computer room and i stuck him on the crappy computer. i'm not sure what he's trying to do but probably not much cause that computer is so bad :-) sorry fred. soccer tonight. and despite what certain annonymous comment leavers say: people want to attend our games and people do attend our games! didn't go to ski practice today. pretty much just didn't feel like it. i didn't wanna tire out for my games tonight either cause my toe is still kinda messed up... but we'll see what i can do.
