Won't be using this as much I guess...
Yet another blog that I will probably write in for a few months and then abandon.

I really don't have much to say. I went to Aruba. It was fantastical. I miss it like... lots. Good thing though: Andry (amazing guy Roxy and I met there) is coming to the States in July so HOPEFULLY we can meet up with him.
And Teddy is not liking it where he is apparently. It's sad the situation he's gotten himself into. I feel so out of use, too. There is nothing I can do for him. And God knows I want to do as much as I can for him but there's really nothing. So all I can do is just be there for him I suppose. Just lke everyone else is doing.
But I have been seeing him just about every weekend as long as he goes to Maryland's house. But he doesn't like it much there anymore either so only time will tell what may happen
BUT I had a fantabulous time right before I left for the Island with Roxy and Teddy. We pretty much got ice cream, blasted music, fogged up car windows, texted sketchy guys, took funny pictures, and toboggoned down hills. Oh yes, we had fun.
Soooo what else.......
I guess I can share my day. Alright... here we go:
Morning
Definitely did not want to believe it was morning already. Tried to stay in bed as long as possible. But then I remembered that I'm on the washing face plan every morning as well as night so I couldn't stay in bed too long.... The sadness was overwhelming.
Before School
Frolicked around the school looking for friends for to properly distribute my pieces of eight. Started with ten. Gave away eight. Ended up with three. Hmmm.....
First Period: Free (hoorah!)
French homework time! And reading first chapter of The Hermit. Fantastic. Actually intrigued me. Made me think about what it might be like to live with the small mole rats on a deserted island off the coast of Scotland. Decided that lifestyle was not appealing... Not even a little. Kenny and I also determined that magic tricks are fantastic and apparently Jandrew was asleep the whole time but I didn't notice and only found out later in the day.
Second Period: Litrugy
And absolutely NOTHING gets done in Liturgy, so if you're looking for actual work that we did (...unlikely), then you will have to skip down to French class... where even more work was pretty much not done.
Actually, I lied. We took a bible quiz and Mrs. P gave us a worksheet with questions to discuss (HA) about The Hermit. But other than that, the class was spent with a invigorating lesson about CAP, Mr. Bagel, and his disappointment in the world.
Third Period: French
The beginning of this class was spent sitting in my seat listening to the guys hammer out various drum beats on their desks eventually resulting in the HEY! song they play mercilessly at basketball and any other various sports games. Seriously guys? France was getting a headache.
Fourth Period: Pre-Cal
I play tetris in this class. There is nothing to report today.
Fifth Period: Music Theory.
Buffalo Chicken Day! Cilla was in her bliss. We actually semi worked today. I got almost all three pages on our interval packet correct so I felt intelligent for once. We determined that Sonata's high notes were broken, Necco's tongue gives me nightmares, and Grape is slow when it comes to recognizing Sonata in a play.
Lunch
Interesting Lunch. I sat with Sonata, Lani, O'Patty, and Anne. It was fantastic. We talked Search and various other things I cannot remember at this point in time.
Sixth Period: British Lit
We had a test. Nothing exciting. Rocko ate his lunch in the class because he was outside playing wallball the entire time and obviously didn't get a chance to eat. Amazing demonstration of time management there Rocko.
After School
Detention with Walker. It actually wasn't much of a detention. It was a copy-this-book-while-we-sit-and-distract-you-with-talk-of-underage-drinking,-Mr. Bagel,-and-seventh-graders party. Walker admitted to getting drunk in college. Our teachers are fine role models. I love my school.
SO! Between "Your tongue gives me nightmares" and "I think it's broken." all round, it was a pretty ok day.
LOVE Grape
arrr...

Fri: 1. Had detention with the boy. Got lectured by foster father and TC for kissing (hardly kissing. NOT making out. I see kids do much worse than us.) in the hallways. First real major fight with Teddy. Much yelling. Leave school very angry at boy.
2. Anne's 18th Birthday party! Had a blast. Sang random songs and played improv games. It was fantabulous.
Sat: 1. Message from Teddy talking about how things had spiraled downhill, he was being called a runaway for leaving the foster parents, and he was now residing at his brother's house (Oh Fantastic...) 2. Got the lowdown (or lack there of) on the situation with Teddy. Fight with foster parents, took computer, walked through streets of city with computer in hand (genius) and fled to brother's.
Sun: Find out foster parents called child services to have Teddy removed from their care. Now he is stranded at his brother's.
Mon: Had dance on a holiday. (not really a major happening but it didn't make much sense so I'm posting it)
Tues: 1. Went to the mall with Emlynn. Had Fantastic time. Bought new jeans that are now too big and a PROM DRESS and went to see Step Up 2.
2. Went to see boyfriend. He didn't look so good. Very scared Teddy. Poor Teddy.
Wed: Have little get together with a couple of friends. Go to see Jumper. Kinda good.
Thurs: 10 month anniversary for Teddy and I.
Didn't get to see him but did talk to him almost all day. We discuss what might happen and concerns I have for him.
Fri: 1. Get sick just in time for my singing competition the next day. (Fantastic...)
2. Find out that Teddy can no longer stay at his brother's and come Monday will have to go to a shelter.
3. Also find out that foster parents pulled him out of our school which means no more seeing him everyday. This heartbreaks me. Pretty positive I cried.
4. Sadness overwhelms me more when I find out that I cannot go to Shigen's birthday party because of bad snowfall. But hopefulness returns when I find out nobody could and it's been rescheduled for the next night
Sat: 1. Singing Competion day!
Go into Boston and try my hardest but don't make it to semi-finals because, alas, I am sick. Oh well. Spent good day with parents and got new necklace.
2. Saw the boyfriend at the hockey game. Our school won. 9-0. Took a lovely video of us scoring a goal. Very proud of myself.
3. Friends and I have discussion of Teddy and his not coming to school anymore until maybe next year. Everyone sad.
We will miss him lots.
Sun: 1. After having fun with Roxy and Shigen, I leave Shigen's house and go to see Teddy. I can't stay long but I do get a nice lesson in cars and tires because I had two flat ones which got fixed. Yay!
2. I say goodbye to Teddy and
all the way home. Tomorrow is not going to be a fun day.
So here... is my life. I get to go to school tomorrow and face the sad reality that I am again involved in a long distance relationship. Something I am not particularly good at. At least I'm not the only one. Most of our friends will miss dear Teddy as well. I just hope I'm able to supress the urge to punch foster father in the face when I see him. Must resist. Must resist. Maybe I'll cry in TC and make our teacher feel bad. Oh yeah. Tomorrow's going to rock.

Jules- Me
Teddy- The now ex-boyfriend whom... well yeah.
Markus- The kid who used to stalk me in seventh grade. He claims he didn't but...
Roxy- My very first best friend in school. We met in Pre Algebra and had fun flinging highlighter caps at Ryan Levesque's head
Emlynn- We went to New York and I had the best times there! (oh yeah. We also occasionally call zoos to inquire about elephant food.)
Dani- I met her through Roxy and we sing together a lot.
Shigen- We used to be in drama class together. She and Teddy have fun talking about Anime and computers... and stuff.
Oliver- Enlynn's ex. A Techy geek. We have had interesting conversations.
Anne- We used to ride the bus together before she got her license. We share a love of good shopping.
Chocolate- We used to ride the bus together before I got my license. She could kick your butt in karate

BUT the wonderful thing about exams is the big LONG weekend I am currently spending doing absolutely NOTHING because I have NO WORK! (caps for emphasis, in case you didn't catch that) Ahh... solitude... tis a wonderful thing. AND Winterball is tonight which I am SO excited for
I don't know how my dress will fit tonight. It fits one night and then doesn't the next. It obviously despises me.
But we should have a blast otherwise. I'm going with Teddy (obviously). Dani is having Oliver take her friend. Mirage's boy is in Michigan so I don't he's coming... Marcus isn't going. Neither is Chocolate. We'll miss them.
Robin is going with her boyfriend, O'Patty but sitting at another table. Red is going. Shigen is... I think Shigen is going. Apparently everyone is meeting at Oliver's house but I'm going with Teddy and the foster father because people failed to inform me of this.
So yeah. I'm excited. Ready to party in my too tight dress (maybe) and no shoes because I failed to get some beforehand. Joy.
So, onto bigger and better things. I got this idea from a friend's Facebook Note. I'm going to write a series of statements about people but I'm not going to say who they're for. So they're just kind of anonymous (yes I realized I spelt that wrong. Thank you). Feel free to guess which ones belong to who. (some of these apply to the same person and some of them apply to more than one)
This is dedicated to everyone in my life:
1) I'm so sad we grew apart.
2) Don't cut your hair. (this one I stole but it applies)
3) For some reason, she made you hate me. And, yes I will always blame her because I can't blame someone I still love.
4) Your box is getting very dusty. I'm so proud of myself.
5) Your box will never get dusty.
6) I hope you're happy. Honestly.
7) You make me feel insignificant but on top of the world at the same time. You're truly amazing.
8) You are the funniest person I have ever met and you never fail to put a smile on my face.
9) I'm so proud of you.
10) For some reason, you are the one I always want to talk to when I'm upset.
11) We're growing apart. Let's not let that happen anymore.
12) I miss us.
13) I loved you more than people think I did.
14) Thank you so much. (this goes out to many many specific people)
15) Stop complaining about your life and the people in it. Feel free to be intellectual but don't be emo about it. That's not who you are and you know it.
16) You have the most gorgeous hair I've ever seen.
17) I miss you so much!
18) It's sad not being able to sing with you anymore.
19) Grow up. You have a very warped sense of love. You're going to get yourself very hurt someday.
20) I really do appreciate you.
21) You taught me what love was.
22) You taught me what love was not.
23) Ireland would not have been the same without you.
24) You are perfect in your own way.
25) I LOVE YOU SO MUCH (again, applies to many, many specific people)
Each and every one applies to someone in my life. Some might be easy to figure out while others are not so facile. And others might seem obvious but they're not. So, like I said, feel free to guess and good luck! ![]()

So what's been going on with me... Well, RENT was last night. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Of course, every show I go see is amazing. It's a show,for goodness sakes. It was in Boston at the Wang. Spiffy place. Very pretty. There was a car in the lobby for some reason. I always question their methods for getting cars into buildings. I wonder if there are people who are hired to drive the cars in the doors to the place they want the car to be in. Especially those big fancy dealerships with the glass walls. Because heaven forbid we hire an unexperienced driver and risk hitting the glass which probably wasn't the best idea in the first place. You know what would be cool? If they made the roofs of places like that detachable and all you had to do was remove the roof and put the car into the building. I'd like to see that process...
Wow. Off topic, much?
Yup so RENT was incredible. Boston is incredible. Ma mere says that one Sunday, we'll go into boston for the day and she'll properly introduce me to the city. She used to live there. That's why she's the driver that she is. If you can drive in Boston, you can drive anywhere. Or so they say...
OMFG! SNOW DAY! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
This is actually good because I didn't get much studying done yesterday. What with the greatest show on earth and all. So today, instead of distracting myself with very trivial things like TV or computer, I'm going to go all hardcore and study the whole day.
...oh crap.
So because I just realized that blogging does require me to disregard valuable study time. (PSHHHH) And because I'm hungry and want some crepes.
I'm going to go and leave you with the weekly Cyanide and Happiness comic. Enjoy:

Sorry for the delay. It's been an exausting last few days. Much going on. Lots to think about. Lots to do. Not much time to stop and take it all in so it's nice to now just sit and breathe for the first time. I think life is full of times when you just need to stop. Pause the world for a few minutes and breathe. I don't think people do that enough. Much to busy, I suppose. But, I guess people could argue that I am being too laid-back. But what if I was uptight? I wouldn't be me, that's for sure. Uptight was never part of my character. I actually napped today which was nice. I don't usually sleep during the day so dozing off in History class was a sure sign of lack of sleep
Too many things. Too many thoughts.
I never made new Year's resolutions this year.
I did do a lot of thinking yesterday. I realized a few things. Funerals will do that, I think. Let's recap, shall we?
SuperGrape's realizations of Life as of January 8th:
1. Life is much shorter than we think it is. Treasure the little things.
2. As long as you have family and friends who love you, you have everything.
3. Don't sweat the small stuff. Tomorrow, they won't matter.
4. Sometimes, it takes a loss to realize a gain.
5. Life is going to hurt. A lot most of the time. But there's always going to be a silver lining. Sometimes, you just have to look for it.
6. The best lessons are learned from unexpected people.
All of this I realized on my own. With the help of a lot of close friends, a few new ones and a wonderful women who was as loved as much as she is going to be missed.
