PART 1: I couldn’t help but think this was cute. This is the theme for my gmail, the little fox is always in a different place. lol It changes from day to night. lol Cute right? Earlier he was sitting at the outside table. I know I am weird. But I love it. lol
PART 2: I am really angry with the mail and borders market. I ordered a book at the beginning of the month and the book still hasn’t came. So I sent them an email saying exactly that. They said they refunded me, but I still want the book. Tsk. I hate the mail sometimes. sigh. On another note I am reading Dead until Dark and I’m almost on the second one. So far I like it but I hate to say it but I like the show way more. I’m not gonna anything other than that. I still recommend it though. lol
PART 3: Kitty sitting tomorrow until Wednesday. Finished essay, need to start last one. I need to do my history quizzes. Then get ready for exams and take them and pass them and then……get ready for the next semester. Phew!!

I have never had bangs or a fringe before, so this is new for me.
The Tower
The Tower represents sudden and unexpected change. It signifies the destruction of something that was not built on a solid foundation. With this change comes a time of disorder and chaos, but from this comes great improvement and newfound strength. This is an opportunity for you to start over and right your wrongs.
I guess I just have to get used to it. I’m not sure what to think of them really. I just hope I don’t look stupid with them. I mean my forehead is no longer naked, And my antennas are more at the sides now. But as yo noticed in the picture above I still have them. lol. You know I hate and love getting my hair cut. 1. I hate deciding and choosing how to cut my hair. I have really thick, temperamental, annoying hair, so deciding to cut it takes awhile. 2. You want to try something different out but your afraid of how it will look because you don’t know how it will look. Tsk. Fear always gets the better of me. 3. You usually stay with one hair style because you either like it or it is comfortable to you. Sigh. I mean I have had my share of bad hair cuts, which I just found a way to mask. I’m not really sure if this falls under the bad or the good list of hair cuts. Maybe its a new category, because some angles I love it then some I don’t so again maybe it just takes some getting used to. I have never had bangs so maybe thats why its different compared to every other hair cut I have had. 4TH In the hate column, I hate when it when after they finish cutting it its all frizzy. I usually straighten my hair so usually after cutting it I like to hurry home to straighten it asap. The good side of getting a hair cut is its nice when you cut off all the dead ends. My hair had tons of dead ends. Well I am way too sleepy to list the rest of the goody sides but I will later today.
AND I AM PISSED MY BOOK STILL ISN’T HERE! SLOW MAIL!
Good Night.

“My imaginary green elf?”
Ok I went shopping for some new pants this weekend. I successfully found pants that fit me perfectly. I bought two pairs of Jolt skinny jeans, one black and the other dark brown. I never even considered wearing skinny jeans because I thought you had to be extremely skinny to wear them. But behold I actually think I look ok in them. They actually show off my non existent ass. *50 points for Kim*
Now I’m oblivious when it comes to brown and black no no’s. I think its retarded the rules I mean. I will never understand the right way and wrong way to wear black and brown. But guess what?
I DON’T GIVE A SHIT!
I’m going to wear my dark brown pants the way I want to wear to them. And I could care less what annoying people think. Pffffft Shit what about jackets? lol I don’t want to look stupid. sigh. >_< points deducted right?
I don’t want to clash, I want to look nice. Is that so wrong?
I’m also looking forward to seeing Dio in concert. Hopefully they are coming! o^_^o

“Just because it is 1in the morning, that shouldn’t mean that TV networks must be incapable of showing different or at least decent movies during this time.” -Me
I do not have classes on Friday. So I like to stay up late. But who am I kidding I sleep late on school nights too. But Thursday nights I can relax without worrying about home work that’s due or something. Well I like staying up and watching TV. Once in awhile they show a good movie. The channels in particular is tbs and USA. Now I can’t remember how many times or when it first started but they have been showing the same exact movie like every night it seems. Or at least every Friday morning. Now I wouldn’t be bothered by it if it was a movie I at least liked. The movie in question is…. Screwed.
I am annoyed by this movie, sorry to the people who actually like this movie. But enough is enough. Why must they keep showing this movie? There is like a million other movies they could show. I mean I know there are people who can’t sleep, or who are like me and are just accustomed to sleeping late. But I mean come on. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SHOW A DIFFERENT MOVIE! At least for my sanity.
But this is where I turn off the TV and read a good book. I have so many books I want to buy at the moment. I am currently reading three books at the same time because I couldn’t decided which one to read first. I know I’m terrible. So far its going ok I am keeping up with them. My book wishlist just keeps growing and growing. sigh. There are way too many books and I read way too slow. >_<
I just wanted to share this with you Mija and Kat. Because I know you both can appreciate and understand where I am coming from. Plus you can justify that this isn’t just crazy talk.
I’m not crazy. Right?

“Like, I will probably never get struck by lightning, or win a Nobel Prize, or become the dictator of a small nation in the Pacific Islands, or contract terminal ear cancer, or spontaneously combust. But if you consider all the unlikely things together, at least one of them will probably happen to each of us.” – Paper Towns, John Green
I just purchased Paper Towns. I wanted sad Margo cover, but Borders didn’t have it. And I really wanted to buy it so I had no choice but to take happy Margo. Which there is absolutely nothing wrong with Happy Margo cover, I just like sad Margo…more. I can always buy sad Margo when it comes out on paper back. Which I really wish they brought books on paper back first. But I know they make more money in hard back. Plus the book will last much longer. But I hate it when it has a dust jacket. I wanted the cover to be on the book itself. I am extremely picky when it comes to books. I want to read 13 Little Blue Envelopes but I had to pick one. Sigh. I know I should have just waited on Paper Towns, so I could have bought the cover I wanted but what I can I say I am impatient along with indecisive. sigh. Along with Paper Towns I got Undine in the mail the day before. I love getting things in the mail. lol Because I bought it used it is from like a library or something so its hard back but with the protective paper they put on library books. I wish I could put that on my Paper Towns book. Anyway focus Kim. So yeah I have three books I want to read, but I am such a slow reader. I like to take my time and soak it all in. Because books are awesome! I still have to finish Katherines but I’m actually considering reading all three at the same time. lol Dumb idea? >_<
I have History home work to do. I should go to sleep its 4 in the morning. I’m visiting my sister at the moment. I had to put her cat in the bathroom he is annoying. lol But cute too. Ok well good night.
I was feeling a little glum but PAPER TOWNS TOTALLY CHANGED THAT!

“I guess I’m not as good at masking my pain as you are.”-words from Kim
I am in pain. (I was in pain. I’m better now.)
Basically this whole paragraph is old news. I just didn’t post this right away. >_<
I woke up Sunday morning with a crick in my neck.My neck hurts so much. Then again not as bad as it did the night before. It was horrible, I laid down on my back while using a neck pillow (which didn’t help and I ripped it)>_< Sad really. I couldn’t turn over after that, I finally got back to my side. I probably looked ridiculous. So anyway its getting better. I just need another day or so, to be completely back to normal. This is practically how my neck and back is every time I am on the computer. More than a bad habit right? I read that cricks are caused by muscle spasms, or chill or cool air hitting the area that has the crick, and poor sleeping posture. I never thought I had poor sleeping posture. I sleep normal I thought. lol Head on pillow, sometimes on my side or back. How could that be poor?
I can’t decide which cover to buy. But I really want it. I doubt I can get it right away (and I doubt I can get both covers), because I just bought AAoK, and Undine. Here’s hoping *crosses fingers* I love John Green’s style of writing. At first I wasn’t sure if I would but I love it. I found another favorite author and that’s surprising. I usually don’t make an author a fav. until I finish their book. He is hilarious. You should read his books too! I hope I can buy it. If not I will complete the note in cover step. watch youtube link to understand that.

““All else being equal, past officeholders ought to have an advantage, but all things are rarely equal.” – John Green
Ok.
I am pissed off at Hastings.
Why, you ask? Ok. Well I love books. I love reading books. (That’s a given) Well I looked up books on the Borders website because I was going to buy a book online but I am so indecisive when it comes to things like this. So my wishlist grew within minutes of browsing the lists of books. Authors from Robin McKinley to Maryrose Wood. I found so many books I really want to read. Now the one I went to Hastings in search of was Undine by Penni Russon. I really wanted this book.I went to Hastings to find said book.
And all I got was NOT CURRENTLY IN STOCK. Pffft! I hate it. Why is it that when I know the title and the author of the book I want and I’m not just browsing they never have the book I want. Or they say they have the book but its not where it says it should be. Now I am aware that it must be difficult to keep books where they are supposed to be, especially when customers move things around. (Déjà vu) Anyway so I looked and looked for a book to buy. And discovered that John Green’s books were on display. It is John and Hank Green’s Youtube channel aka The Vlogbrother’s channel. So I have recently purchased, “An Abundance of Katherines.” By John Green. Thanks to the FiveAwesomeGirls who have gave John Green’s books wonderful reviews; which is what made me buy this book. I do wish I could have this book with this cover. But I have a different cover. Because I have bought this I have subscribed to his youtube videos which I wonder why I never did that to begin with. Well anyway so yeah I haven’t started reading yet but I am looking forward to it. But….I came home and bought Undine online anyway. lol Which should arrive October 23rd if all goes well. o^_^o

“A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.”- Paul McCartney
I was looking for some water color paint brushes and then I found these. KIMBERLY brand name water color pencils. I’m such a loser, that I got really excited and bought them. It was my dad’s birthday and I painted him a picture of his Jeep. Thats why I needed some more brushes but then I found the pencils. I thought he would put the picture in his garage. Mom bought a frame, of course instead of being in the garage its now in our living room. (sigh so embarrassing.) I painted it for him because he really loves his jeep. He calls it Midnight/Old Betsy (strange right? eh) I told him that Midnight sounds like a name for a male horse and Old Betsy sounds like a cow name. So I told dad that I it makes his jeep sound like a transvestite. But whatever. Which made me think. Why do men give their boats,cars, motorcycles, instruments (in my dads case his jeep and Bar-B-Q) names? I mean I don’t name anything…. well I did name my stuffed animals. -_- So maybe this is a mans version of a stuffed animal. (I am so weird) Well anyway because of Hurricane Ike dad has to work in Houston. He is working on getting peoples lights back on. He stays at his brothers house in Sugar Land because its too long of a drive from home to Houston. He would be too tired to do that. My poor hard working dad.
School starts again Monday for me. So hopefully things will be getting back to normal. The Mall still hasn’t reopened.Ok well I along with my cool water color pencils I also got Sims life stories. I love Sims. I have always wanted Life stories since it came out, and I finally got it. YAY! Because I was busy evacuating on my birthday I couldn’t really celebrate turning 19. So I went out to eat with my mom and sisters. And then we went to Best Buy where mom and Mija bought me KODOCHA season 2! Kodocha is my favorite manga and they made an anime of it. I love it! On the way home from Best Buy it was so dark. Street lights and traffic lights still don’t work in some parts. Well I’m gonna gonna watch Kodocha now.

“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”- John Lennon
We got home Saturday? I think. I can’t even remember. Well we left my Uncle’s and went to my sister’s apartment to check if it was alright. And the trees in the court yards were destroyed. An inch closer and they would be on top of her apartment. Thank god they didn’t land on anyones apartment. She didn’t have any electricity or water. We waited for my dad to call us, he went home to get our lights put back on. So we waited and decided to drive home. We got home passing him on the way (funny right?) we still didn’t have electricity. Luck again was on our side our house was fine, my cats were fine. A broken fence and a messed up yard that was it. Thank god. It was already going to be 8, but we were hungry so My sisters went driving around to see if any stores were open. They came back empty handed and were also stopped by a cop. They were told no stores were open and that there was a curfew here. 7am to 7pm. No cars drive by. Only cops no and then. Its creepy. Our lights came back on and we were able to sleep comfortably. Of course we still had no food. I didn’t have school Monday, and Tuesday and Wednesday it is still closed. I’m not sure if I have class Thursday. I think my younger sister goes back to school Wednesday but I’m not sure of that either. More of my neighbors are back home, but it still has an eerie feel here. Like the first night back it didn’t feel like my home. It felt strange. I still haven’t celebrated my birthday, but thats alright its passed. Wednesday is my dad’s birthday so I should be thinking of that. I haven’t seen him since Friday. He is busy getting peoples lights back on. I really hope the rest of my town gets their lights back on. I want everything to go back to the way it was. Its been awhile since I heard anything from my friends I hope they are alright.
Well on to a more less depressing topic. I have became obsessed with a new series on HBO. Thanks to my sister Mija who told me about it. I love it. However I could do without the scenes with the brother and friend but that just my opinion. I like the main characters Sookie and Bill. Hell even Sam is a good character. If you have no idea what I’m talking about you should google True Blood. But if you do NOT like Vampire stories then you should not watch it. Its not too bad on the gruesome factor but its still a good story line. Its based on books. So when Hastings or Walden’s opens thats the next book series I’m looking for.
I’m getting sleepy now so yeah. Again I hope everyone is doing ok.

“All that we see or seem, is but a dream within a dream”– Edgar Allan Poe
I took care of my neighbors cat, Spicy this past week. I finished up Wednesday, before the hurricane evacuations were being issued. Thursday I evacuated from my home, which was also my 19th birthday. Nice way to spend ones day of birth right? I spent the majority of that day crying my eyes out. The thought of not coming home to a home kept itself planted in my mind. As we started putting things upstairs; I took pictures of my house. I couldn’t help but cry. I had to leave my two cats behind because dad said they would be alright. But I think he made us leave them so we wouldn’t have to deal with their litter boxes. I still wish we brought them with us to my Uncle’s house. I wish I brought a lot of things I left behind. Sigh. School closed Wednesday and Thursday and I wont have class until Monday. So I want Monday to come fast. But I have a feeling that this weekend is going to go by really slow. I mean there isn’t anything wrong with my Uncle Ray’s house, and my cousins have all been really nice. I just want to go home as soon as possible. T_T I really hope my cats are ok. I’m afraid, and the negative side of things seem to surface, I tend to ignore the silver lining. I hope the lights don’t go out. (Knocks on wood) I really wish I could just sleep this whole weekend away and pretend its just a really bad dream and that nothing bad is happening to my home and everything will be fine Monday. I will wake up in my room and this will all have been a horrible nightmare that I will forget. I’m starting to get hungry. Another Birthday that I hope to forget. I didn’t get a chance to celebrate it. YAY I’m 19! There its the best I can do at the moment. The lights just went off for a second. Sigh I hope they stay on. The weather sucks.
I really hope everyone is safe and can go back to their homes.
