hey guess what?! i'll tell you later

wow rachel. i think we ARE mind-twins. i thought 'otaku' too!

henceforth, person-that-i-haven't-come-up-with-a-nickname-for/___ shall be 'Otaku'

today was... meh. as you can see in my former post, i got up late and was very happy. then my mom made me get up and clean my room, and then i 'edited' (ie; did) my brother's science paper for him. i found a pair of old jeans in my closet that i couldn't wear anymore (they had a huge hole in the inside of one of the legs), and took them apart for the denim. maybe i'll make a pillow or something tomorrow... then, since i had the sewing kit out, i mended my socks that had holes in them and the sleeve of one of my shirts. yes, i know. i'll make a good wife someday. i've been told that. just because i cook, clean, and sew doesn't mean that i'm gonna start wearing pastel print skirts and pearls though! i am NO stepford wife! (saw the movie a while ago. it scared me.)

speaking of times long past, i was reading something the other day, about flower meanings. did you know that in the time before email and texting (le gasp! i thought the internet arrived with Jesus!), lovers would send elaborately coded messages to each other through bouquets? each flower has a different meaning, with even different colors of the same flower meaning different things. if you look up 'flower meanings' in google, the second website that shows up is really good. though they have some strange flowers there, like cloves. and cinnamon.

but yeah. in my opinion, too many beautiful things have been ousted by convenience and habit. i know roses are beautiful, but instead of buying a bouquet from the grocery store, isn't there something special in selecting flowers for their meaning, and not simply their aesthetic appeal? i actually have a new dream; that someone (preferably a guy) would take the time to pick a flower or two, and send me a message through that way, instead of emailing or calling me. that, or i'd love to open my locker one day and find a single red tulip, or a red chrysanthemum, or an apricot blossom, or gardenia, or... well, anything (you can look up the meanings on the flower meaning page i said earlier), with a simple note tied to it. the note could be 'i like pie' for all i care, but i think i would literally fall for anyone that did that for me.

"I believe that along with curses, come blessings. I know I have my fair share of curses, but I know I have blessings too. I think blessings of people, you know, like friends, family, love; those are the best. Will you be my blessing?"

that is honestly how a friend of mine got asked to prom. well, not word-for-word, per say, but that's the gist of it. and i got... well, i'm not sure if he even asked me to prom. i was complaining about how my mom found me a prom date without my permission and i didn't know the guy and everything over email, and he replied "i'd ask u to prom so u don't have to go with what's his face, but idk when it is. When is it anyway?" (and yes, it is word-for-word from the email). what do you think rachel? and even though i doubt anyone else reads this, if you do and you're not rachel, what to you think?

anyway, i should probably go. i'm supposed to be off the internet by 10:30!

Oh and the 'i'll tell you later' thing.

YOU JUST LOST THE GAME
