I haven't written in a while. Hmm. About 3 and a half weeks ago I got emrgency surgery, just so ya'll know...mm hmm, but I don't want to get into it. This week I discovered a lot. Tyler has really pretty eyes. ha? Andrew is really cute, well I already knew that. I think about Dennis too much for my own good. ah. Friday night Aunt Jodi, Zak, Seth, and Marcia came over. The adults got drunk and loud, Seth fell asleep watching star wars, Zak, Vanessa, and I fell asleep watching Jeepers Creepers. The next day they all left and I spent the whole day walking around, I watched tv, took a shower, and pretty much just sat at the computer. Today we just went to the beach to take a walk. I collected sea shells like I always do, then we went to a chinese buffet. Yummy. Things To Do Today: Write In My Journal. Clean My Room. Do My Homework. Do Laundry For an Outfit tomorrow. Play Sims. hehe Call Soso back, and Call Nick that lil booguh weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Panic! In my....pants??? So take a look at me now. There's just an empty space.. waa??? valerie_________. A: Is someone you wish you were. B: Is STUPID. C: Is challenged mentally. D: Is not here right now, so please leave your name and number after the doink. *DOINK*

..I was hoping for a snow day today, but we ended up not having one which pisses me off..I didnt do my homework cause I was positive that there would be no school, and there was so I stayed home instead of getting in trouble. I know i'll have extra work to do, but I'm okay with it. My birthday was 2 days ago. My mom was the first to say happy birthday to me, but I kinda had to fish for it. And the first to say it to me at school was Dennis, but he looked away after he said so when I turned to say thank you he wasn't even looking at me, that was odd. I really REALLY hope to get my pen pal letter today. I am so anxious. And I can't wait for this Saturday. Sophia and Nick are coming to sleepover and Gram and Aunt Jodi, Seth, and Zack are coming by. Nick will be there before Sophia...and Sophia wants to meet Dennis and Henry pretty bad, cause I've known them for like 2 years and she has never even met them. SO pshhh-yeah. Haha Banana Fingers, guy cracks me up. Now Im listening to the postal service. yum yum. They be good to the ears. I kinda bummed cause yesterday was my last day in Tech Graphics with all my friends, and now I'm in gym with other people..Im gonna miss all 6 of my friends, and mr.sampson, he rocks. So I missed the first day of gym, which prob would have been a free block, stupid Valerie. Im hungry. Valerie is Hungry. -Valerie That's Me.

So yeah OMG I need to buy the FOB TICKETS! I AM SO SCRAED THEY WILL GET SOLD OUT!! So Soso said she would pay for van's tickets, (GOD BLESS HER TO THE FIFTH POWER) And Brooke's friends are buying her tickets, and I have the money so yes indeed FOb here I come, as long as they never sell out, EVA! H/o, Im gonna check if they're sold out or not. Good Still up for sale!! WOOOOO HOOOOO! Gonna rock out, mmm hmmm..!!! Yes I like him a lot. A lot A lot. I mean A lot A lot A lot. Gawwwwsh (Napoleon's deep *manly* voice) I wish I wouldn't do this to myself. Waa Waa Waa Pity Party for Val Pity Party ot DIE! -Valerie

Today is Friday the Thirteenth. Last time it was Friday The Thirteenth was May 13th, 2005, Friday and the day after that my Uncle Scottie was found dead. He died in his sleep. We all believed that he had died on the 14th, the day after Friday the thirteenth, but today my mom (His sister) has had some strange encounters. While my mom was laying in bed trying to take a nap she was thinking about my Uncle Scott. Then suddenly the cabinet drawer in her room flew off the cabinet and slid sideways. On top of the cabinet is a picture of her brother, Uncle Scottie. My mom said that when the door fell she noticed that it sort of made an arrow pointing to his picture. My mom thought it was weird that that had happened just as she was thinking of him. Now my mom couldn't sleep after that had happened so she walked out into the living room and noticed something else. Beofre she had gone to take a nap she had tied the curtains together straight, but when she walked in there after the cabinet door fell one side of the curtain was pulled over the shelf next to the window and the sun was shining on my Uncle Scottie's picture. Just his picture. None of the others. My mom found it really weird. Then my mom said she later was eating food in the living room and noticed that my Uncle Scottie's picture was laying down flat on another shelf in the living room and a picture of his children (my cousins) was laying down beside it. None of the other pictures around it were laying down, just my Uncle's. My mom said she started crying when she saw that and my step dad tried to come up with excuses. the door fell because it has a loose screw, but why was it pointing up to his picture? The picture of him was laying down casue one of the cats knocked it over? No. That's impossible. All of our cats are too big, they would have knocked over the other pictures right next to it. She had no excuse for the curtain. We think that it was My Uncle Scottie. We think he's trying to tell us something. I sort of think he is just trying to let us know that he did not die the morning after Friday The Thirteenth last year, that he died Friday The 13th that late night in his sleep. I am so happy Uncle Scottie came. It makes me want to cry, but at the same time I know he's here. And his song just came on. (My mom is listening to his cd from the funeral) Yeah, Seriously. Im not lying this is the truth. -Valerie

Well Yeah, I just got home pretty much. My stomach hurts a little bit, but I'm going to go eat something in a little bit. I am in such a tough place right now. I want to go to the FOB concert os bad and I have enough money, but no one else does so I have no one to go with and I am also going ice skating Sunday and maybe going to the movies tomorrow (Idk I have to call Sophia) and if I save the money for the concert I won't have enough money for the movies or ice skating and mom will have to pay and I don't want to make her pay, cause even my birthday is coming up and she's buying Vanessa a video camera so we can both have our own which is a lot of money. So I guess I could give up the concert...and I can not believe I just said that...I told myself that if I get enough money and decide not to go then I will regret it. That's also a reason why I'm not going to the dance. 1: I don't really feel like getting all dolled up just to stand around and watch my crush dance with other girls. 2: Saving up my money. 3: Not that I don't like dances. I love them. Not in the mood. 4: Already got a packed AND EXPENSIVE weekend. It would be an absolute miracle fi I got money for my birthday and the FOB tickets were not sold out so I could buy them. I would be extreamly happy. OMG I WOULD BE SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and blessed. Im between a rock and a hard place. -Valerie Save Me

Haha.....Add "Top of me" to my title....hehehe Im making pizza rolls and gonna eat them up and jump in the shower..Just came on to see who's on...and he's on....HE IS ON....[top of me] JK. The one time i cant stay on. Brooke is ocming home soon....*sigh* in my dreams......Im out of his league. I guess Ill just go stare at his Screen name until He or I sign off..... *staring* *wishing* *dreaming* I love to see him everyday. -Valerie P.S. I love how I like people who never look my way. That's why it's so easy to keep it under wraps. Besides the EXTRA glances I give to him in the hallways and the smile that appears on my face everytime his name is mentioned. I see how good I can hide it, so I think.."It would be nice if he was as good as me. Maybe he could be hiding something." Then again.. I never see an extra glance. Anything can happen in Highschool. and I mean anything. that's where the real feelings will step out. That's where I'll actually try to grab attention. Okay..Shutting Up NOW!!!

Well my day was okay. I came home and mailed my pen pal letters. It should be about a month until they reply, if they decide to reply that it. Things to stress about: First Block: Essay and Spelling Test Second Block: Nothing Really Third Block: Reading Chart, but I think I've got it under control.

I want to go to the Fall Out Boy tour with From first to last, hawthorne heights, and all american rejects SO BAD!! We are their second stop on the tour, and it's in march but the tickets are on a pre sale today. $30 each. And I cant go alone, so that would be like for 3 people $90.........I am so upset, I dont think anyone gets it. Brooke goes to a million concerts, she went to her first concert when she was 9 years old and Im gonna be 14 in 12 Days!!!! I hate my life.

Hahaha...wow Thats sure is funny (*twitch) I just wrote a realy long entry and it got deleted...HAHAHAHAAA!! whew..im good. In Second block Mr.McGovern was hard on me..he asked me something in french but I didnt understand the last word so I just said I didnt know..and then he just was "Yes you do!!!" Staring at me and I didnt know what it was so....yeah he was really hard on me today, so that made me think I would have a bad day. I was wrong 3rd block was just me and Janae eating lifesavers and talking about cats and Nick. She said he was cute when I showed her a pic of him on my cellphone. Rawr. You go Nick. SCORE!! Haha I kid. I kid. I dont think Im going to go to the dance this friday. I dont want to watse money if it doesnt turn out to be fun, and plus im already spending money this weekend at the movies most likely and I would rather not watch the guy I like dance with other girls. Oui Oui. I like him again. He's cute, funny, smart, and nice. And so out of my league. He won best dressed, and let me say he desrved it, he is such a great dresser, but I think he also should have won cutes, or maybe Im just obssessed.. Jk No, Im obssessed.. Jk.... ...???? Idk Wow... Im eating goldfish... Yeah so movies and ice skating this weekend probably...yaaaaaaaay. Full weekend minus dance. Plus Dennis wont be there(dance), random fact, I really dont care.... Yummy Goldfish....Glub Glub... To Do List: Call Sophia Confirm Plans with Emily and Kelsey And Do Homework... Gaaaah not Homework! MON DIEU! I LOVE TO SAY THAT! MON DIEU MON DIEU MON DIEU!! MY GOD!! -Valeire P.S. Glub Glub

Birthday List: (Short and to the point) 1st Season of Grey's Anatomy. Video Camera Video Tapes Gift Cards Clothes/Accessories Tickets to Concert in March Haircut It's not like I'm expecting all of that. Whatever is on the budget. I'm trying tnot to seem like a spoiled brat. And I'm tryingt not to turn my family into a Great Depression where we are forced to eat our own toes. Yummy Mon Dieu!!! Not the toes!

Another bad day. Didn't feel good at alllll, thought about going home, called mom, no answer..got better soon after that, now feeling not so good again. I can't wait til my birthday!!!! :-) :-) :-) I don't think I'm gonna go to the dance this friday. I haven't been having a good week and I haven't been feeling good and I don't want to have a bad dance, that would be a waste of my money. And I don't want mom to have to pay for that. I'm probably going to the movies and skating this weekend which = $$$ So yeah... I really want to go to a concert in March. It's on March 16 and it's for Fall Out Boy, All American Rehects, and Hawthorne Heights. It's at The Civic Center, in Portland. Yay///but that means more $$$ MOOLAH. Maybe I'll save my birthday money (KEYWORD: MAYBE!) Awww, I'm listening to Just the girl- Click five now....this is OUR song. When Nick and Soso slept over dad's for that week in August Nick knew nothing about the nits of today and we watched MTV and he heard helena and play and this song for the first time (etc.) and we were singing it and stuff and he had like never heard it and then when we all left and he was left alone, the song came home and he missed us so much he cried as he sang it. Such a sweetie, or did he lie. I know he's a sensitive boy....haha SENSITIVE? If we brought him to come see Tristan and Isolde..Oh God! him sitting through a romance movie? He couldn't even keep himself controled when we saw Harry Potter. HARRY POTTER? Now how the heck does that make you laugh out loud. He's obnoxious and annoying but he;s my best friend/cousin and that's what I love about him. That sick lil freak. If only he could be one of my bride's mades at my wedding...dang but he's a boy....NOT FOR LONG (jk) Bye Valerie P.S. JK!

Today was a whatever day. Nothing special happened, and yet at the same time, today wasn't a bad day. Someimes I didn't feel too good and sometimes I was bored....some I was having fun goofing around with friends and others I was really actually trying to learn. 1st Block. Bored. 2nd Block. Friends and Learning. 3rd. Friends and Learning and not feeling so good. 4th. Learning and Friends...sorta feeling sick. Advisory, bored.......5th Fun, 6th ACTUALLY LEARNING and feeling OK. 7th Fun (sorta) and feeling sick........ Lunch was a poor attempt of healthy food. The chicken noodle soup was below average and the chicken ceaser salad....had barely any cesear....and barely any salad.....and chicken..... On a short note I was not pleased. The roll was stale. Dang I should have grabbed a cookie! REGRET! DARN YOU!! I still feel kinda sick..Im gonna go eat something and then do my homework... -Valerie P.S. 2 Weeks to my birhtday! YAY!!!!!!!!!! P.S.S. I sucked in a whole lotta gasoline while getting on the bus. Omg, I hate the smell of gas...call the meds! P.S.S.S. I watched Grey's Anatomy last night. I think it was the first episode of the first season. Oh it is ever so special/fancy/swell how I tend to see the first episode ever and love it, while we are in the middle of the season, I guess I will have to buy it when it gets on DVD. P.S.S.S.S. JK There is no P.S.S.S.S. P.S.S.S.S.S. HAHA!!!!!! Just Kidding Again! Loser You fell for it!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

We are at Dad's. Yesterday was Dad's Birthday and Sophia and Nick came over. Sophia and I were on the computer most of the time and took pictures and stuff then we were making a really funny skit, but we ended up taping over it. We were gonna finish it today and finish another one, but we ended up not going to Yia-yia's which is why I am disappointed. Nick ended up sleeping over, but he was upset cause he had to sleep out in the living room with Traci..Sick. Then he had to leave early this morning. Yeah, and I need money cause I want to buy more tapes for my video camera. For our birthday...well our birthday is on a monday. but what we are gonna do is have a sleepover at our house, just Nick, Soso, Van and I (mom's) and make movies allll night. But the closest weekend to our birthday is dad's weekend and Traci keeps saying she's gonna plan something........unless mom is...and mom is....so. yeah. And Sophia isnt suppossed to come over mom's house, but she is for our birthday so...yeah.......I feel like we shouldget a choice what weekend we want our sleepover on, and the sleepover im talking about is at mom's, so we can have two sleepovers, but I want to have the one at mom's closet to our birthday. I hate it. Im getting mad now. I want to go see Tristan and Isolde this weekend with Sophia and Vanessa. Yummy and Romantic can't go wrong. I had a really weird dream last night. We were I guess just having a party at our house and Dennis was there and was staying in the guest room and then there was like...well everyone had an evil twin who was black and white and yeah they were chasing after us and somehow we could float up into the air above our house and so yeah I was floating and up like flying and that was my favorite part of the dream cause whenever you dream that you're flying you can actually feel it and I love that. And yeah, it was really weird cause Dennis and I kept on hugging and it was just super wacky. Loonyyy..... Whatever...bye _Valerie_ P.S. Don't tickle Nick's sides!! BEWARE!

I left my english and french homework at home today..so that started out my day pretty bad, we took the spelling pretest to see who will be in the spelling bee. I dont know if I did good. Like I would make both bees, that would be interesting. I want ot at least sitdown and atch a bee and cheer for my team members....but if I make it I'll do it and go threw the stress again. I sent Dennis an email saying Happy Birthday 14 times and one for luck so all together 15, now 18 days to my birthday. Yesterday a guy went ot eh hannaford right next to our street...(Seriously, right next to it) and stole drugs. While I was in school, he was running down the street and the cops tackled him in our neighbors driveway. Mom was upstairs watching the whole hing threw the window. Exciting, I must say. and he has been on the new since. I miss Sophia..and Nick. -Valerie P.S. My french pen pal's name is Stephane (boy) and my Australian pen pal's name is Kelcey (girl).. yay Pen Pals!! WEEEEEEEEEE

The geography bee....well I actually wasn't nervous about it. They gym looked very small from where I was sitting. And all the kids other than my grade were small, or maybe I just thought that cause the rest are in 6-7 grade. But anyway, when I went up to say my name, then it started to feel fun. A bunch of people cheered for me...Waaahoooo, Yeah I got the first question right, second one wrong, third right, fourth right, and fifth wrong...get two wrong,. you're out. So I was out and the question I lost on was like...what land erotion forms sand dunes..and dumbo me I said earthquakes, that makes sense right??? Well anyway, I was out. A 6-7 grader one....And I saw Dennis's little brother pointing to me and talking to his friend about me and he was looking at me and stuff. Go figure. Telling his friend that his older brother went out with me, or saying whatever....whatever...whatever............... Now I want to make the spelling bee. And win that since I didn't win this. That'd be cu-hool Thats right. -Valerie

I...wish I wasn't in the geo bee. Well I'm happy I'm good enough for it, but jeeeez. It's tomorrow!!! And two people told me that I'm a loser and I'm gonna choke their trying to make me feel stupid I guess or w/e and it's not, but.....ahhhh I wont be getting any sleep tonight. Trust me. Naaaah My Cats Better Than Yours. I'm hungry. All I had to eat today was have a bagel plus a bite at lunch....because I wasn't feeling good after finding out that the bee is tomorrow..so I couldn't really stomach much of it. Not that I threw up or anything, I was jus like....Ick....Foooooood. 20 Days to my birthday. Well I guess I'm gonna go get something to eat. It's a bit hard to type because Shylynne is laying on my lap on my left arm. She does his everyday after chool. I woke up in the middle of the night to her attacking my foot. "What did my foot every do to you??" I thought "How do they taste?" I caught her trying to chew up a trident wrapper, I told her that I couldn't afford a kittie funeral so she dropped it. in fact I have that on tape, cause I was recording her with my video camera...yes indeed....wow, grumbling stomach........ MUST EAT FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!! mmmmmmm -Valerie P.S. Wish me luck at the bee....Or else I'll track you down and make you recite all 50 states and capitals which I happen to know... I dont mean to brag.... Edit: Oh Yes....and New Years Day. We went to Yia-Yia's and Papou's and saw family. I taped them all with my video camera...yummy yummy. We ate avalo lemano and pita..yummy yummy times 5000 and I found the coin in the sweet bread and so did Soso. We found it together...at the exact same time and we dived in for it, but I pulled it out with my amazing super human strength that I happen to have. Ahhhhhhhh.....(that was a sigh not a scream. fools) The good ol' Greek life.

Cheesy? I feel cheesy? Happy New Years Eve Day!!! Today..well I woke up and watched Honey, I Shrunk The Kids. And I ate ice cream. Than I did the dishes and now I'm here. Tonight we're gonna watch movies and play board games, eat food and..yeah that's our New Years Eve. Kelsey is suppossed to call me at 11:59 Tonight!!! And Henry and Dennis said they'd call me at 2:00 AM tomorrow morning, we'll see.... I feel so bad for Yoshi, my sister's baby rat. There's always a ca right up against the cage sniffing him. He never gets his privacy. My cat is the prettiest cat in the whole wide world and I know you're jealous, but get over it. --Valerie P.S. I miss Nick and Soso.

My cat is on my lap right now purring like crazy. Nick, Soso, Van and I went to the mall today. The only thing I accomplished from my list today was playing with ym cat, and I'll take a shower later..but anyway at the mall I bought a cd and some pants... and Um...something really funny happened.... Soso and I were eating in the food court and Van and Nick were off shopping, and this group of kids around our age were walking past our table and Sophia said ot one of the boys "I want to spank you!" Just as like a joke, but she didn't think he'd hear, and then I said "I bet he heard you" and we looked back at him and he was staring at us and the girls he was with were like pointing at us and talking about us and we started laughing and then later when we were leaving and walking through the food court I saw a kid who was wearing the same shir as the other guy so I pointed and yelled "Hey Sophia! Is that guy you said you wanted to spank?!!!? And she yells "NO! He's right next to you!!!!" And I turned to my left and he was standing right next to me, Like so close his arm was touching my arm and I started laughing hysterically at him and Sophia was like so embarassed and then he was staring at us and the girls were like "Omg! Those are the girls that we talking about you!" and we were just like...okay well I was the only one doing this but I was still like laughing so loud and omg...it was so funny...and I never even saw his face, but I really wanted to talk to him My stepdad said it would be weird if in like 10 years I meet him, fall in love, get married, and then one night I just tellhim about the boy my cousin(BFF) were talking about at the mall...and he says it was him... Haha This is going in the memory book... Edit:: Cause Im cool like that

Well Well Well... SitD you impress me with you're timing..I was just thinking to myself, Golly Gee Whiz, I wish my journal was not all the way on the oher side of the house sitting in ym purse on my bed because I really feel like writing. I remember when we first started to chat SitD...Everyday after school in 6th grade, I'd come home and talk about Dennis and what not. and in 7th grade....alked about Dennis and what not. and Now 8th Grade...I really don't want to talk about Dennis. I apologize for the change my friend, but let's talk about other things. Kelsey and I were gonna hangout today, but I had to clean the house and go to wal mart. I bought a really pretty ring, unfortunatly it's one size to big, and I bought these really pretty long beaded neckalces, the ones oyu fold over once or twice...and I bought a take five bar...my trademark...other than reeses and sourpatch.. We came home, and watched The Forgotten while eating Chicken sandwiches...I must have been hungry cause I ate two!! Holy.......Chicken! It was a good movie. Than I wondered around the house moaning "Im bored! Im Bored" Kelsey and Henry split this morning....it was sad and yet relieving. (relieving for kelsey, sad for henry) Kels and I want ot hang with henry and Dennis this week... I dont like ART anymore....Im over it...What kind of name is cinderella anyway? Maybe if my mom was brave enough and she named me cinderela I would have a prince charming by now, ahhh I just got a headache...dont ya hate when they pop outta no where? Holy Crap! Its late!!! Geeez! I dont want to go back to school! I hate math class. I hate that math project! I hate my teacher. My head hurts. I dont want to do the geography bee! Im so NERVOUS! I.....OMG I cant talk about it! I have no choice, I have to do it...It have to get up in front of 800 kids and answer stupid S.S. questions....I remember 6th and 7th Grade, I was part of the 800...and I used to talk about each kid... "There belt doesn't match they're outfit." "Nope that's the wrong answer." "I hope she loses." I wonder what people will say about me... I don't want to jynx myself...but I hope I dont puke, or trip..or crack/squeak my voice...or shake compulsivly or break out in cold sweat or whatever.... they should make pocket packs of pepto bismol, cause whenever i think of the geo bee i get nauseated.... Oooh Pepto Bismol!!! Sorry about the typos....(Again)
