So i hang out with him on saturdays... *aka last saturday and yesterday* and last saturday like... my mom invited Sharon, Chuck, Rachel W., Debbie Wedutenko, Gered W., and Cassidy over and we all watched this one folk music movie ... *picked out by cassidy, sharon, and chuck...* and "arsenic and old lace" ... fun times!!!!!

Then... oh yeah yesterday!!! on friday i went to a movie with Emily and her lil sista bekah... that was upda fun!!!! i loved it! and then i went over to lisha's and spent the night... and that morning we went tubing and jetskiing with her fab fam. it was awesome. lisha let me learn to drive the jetski... i sucked at it...

But then at 4 i had to go play the piano for church... and i was like.. well no one there knows how to play anyways... because i hadnt practiced and i was all like... no one will notice. And then i get there and my new piano teacher's there... and i was all freakin out because i was doing terrible at the piano and he gave me a few pointers and then i was like... i'm sorry i didnt practice... and he was like... oh... and i was like... that's because i went jetskiing with my friend and tubing... and he started freaking out and like... spewing off stuff like... "do you ski? or kneeboard??? wakeboarding is fun... " and i was like.. this is so cool... haha . and then he told me that he drums and when i go over for my piano lessons he can teach me a lil... so now BROCK and cassidy are teaching me... GOSH the 2 best people in the world... at drums!!! and then after church my mom and my dad and my sister, sierra, Dave, Sharon, Cassidy, and Chuck went to IHOP and there was this crazy waiter there... Will... quotes:

"I wonder if will would sing for us..." - me
"Yeah that'd be awesome!!!!" - cassidy
"you could be like... Will... will you sing???" - me

"he's acting... he thinks this is his big break and we're all directors..." sharon

"is everything alright? sufficient? adequate?" - this guy with a major accent that was like... 7 feet tall... i think his name was boris...

*everyone quoting Monty Python

"if i had known she was going to the lake... i woulda come with her!!!" - cassidy
^ i swear he's obsessed with the lake idea.

*chuck putting money for one newspaper in the slot but taking 2... lol*

"and when i was like 12 or 13... i wanted to do this merit badge for boy scouts for swimming... so i did it in the winter... and i got there and the teacher was this like... 300 pound guy in a speedo and it was winter right??? and the teacher was like "it's gettin hot in here" so he opened the outside doors... AND IT WAS SNOWING OUTSIDE!!! i guess he just was hot because of all his blubber" - cassidy

Whahaha

Hey i took a quiz... well... a couple today... here are some results-=-

Who Is Your Goddess?



Your Goddess is Aphrodite, the Goddess of Beauty.

Then i took this quiz on "whos your celebrity alter ego?" and i got paris hilton... TWICE... what the hey... i dont understand it.

What Kind of Movie Mogul Are You?



You Are Crowd-Pleaser Drew Barrymore!

You know how to make people happy and can successfully alternate between different groups. Sure, you've got an independent streak and artistic flair, but you also get along with everyone, which helps you stand out from the pack. Your flexibility and openness to new ideas can make you seem like a daredevil at times, but you are just as impressed by small pops as big bangs. Like Drew Barrymore, who has acted in and produced both cult favorites and blockbusters, you are always positive and upbeat.

WHAT KIND OF GUY WOULD YOU BE IF YOU WERE A GUY???

Boyfriend Material
Yep, no worries here. If you were a boy, you'd definitely be boyfriend material. You're trustworthy, smart, you give good gifts, you're not a fashion disaster, and you don’t play around, even when you're tempted. You aren't a pushover, and you can hold your own in an argument, but you're also able to say "I'm sorry" when you're just flat-out wrong about something. And not only that, you're never really afraid to play the romantic…without being sickeningly sweet. Rock on!

A Beautiful Mind

You’re the kind of gal who always knows how much tip to leave at dinner, and always kicks butt at Trivial Pursuit. Your ability to retain massive amounts of information (plus, the fact that you can add, subtract and multiply without a calculator) is always impressing those around you. You pretty much always have an informed opinion about everything -- and if you don’t, it’s not above you to research until you do have one. You also look fab in dark framed glasses (always a plus for brainy babes!).

^that ones kinda true....

yeahkinda weird. anyways... yeah i'm off... this is like the dumbest entry ever!

Alone - the song that is kinda like "my immortal" except i wrote it... in my own head. HEHE dustiN!!!!

Once again... GOSh dustin you're so good at getting me to write in my blog!!!!!! :D way to go... YOU get the award!!!!!

So basically... i wrote this song thinking of you actually dustie... bcause you are always saying my songs are avrilish but you like.... Evanescence so i was like... i'll write one of those... so he can shut up :D haha. anyways here goes

Alone

There was a time when I
I couldnt feel the warmth of your love
beaming down on me
and i was all alone
there was a time when I
I couldnt feel your arms around me
Holding me so i could hear
The beating of your heart
And i was....

Alone
All alone
I feel the pain
creeping within me
Alone
All by myself
what do i hold onto?

There was a sense i had
a feeling of brokenness
That wouldnt go away
and i was all alone
There was a sense I had
To push you away
to be all

Alone
All alone
i feel the pain
stabbing within me
alone
all by myself
what do i hold onto?

Why did I ever think that i could trust you?
I shouldnt have
All the sunrise and sunset
flashing before my eyes
the dying the crying

tears flow down my eyes
The praying the waiting
the hurting the calling
the feeling the reeling
Why... am... I...

Alone?
All alone
i feel the pain
creeping within me
i'm weeping within me
Why... am... I...
Alone?
Why did i push you away
cast you away
I wanted to hold onto you
Hold onto me
I dont want to feel
Alone
Alone
Alone...
What do i hold onto????

YEP i wrote that one... as did the one in the last update... i think i forgot to mention it... so yeah. NATHAN is joining the daylily club!!! haha... not. luv ya...

So... poetic inspiration... dustin here you go!!!

Okay so in response to Dustins... "it'll totally make my day" thingy about me putting my poems on here... i decided to do one... meybe a couple. It depends on the mood... and if my comp is nice to me.

OK so the first poem... is kinda weird. I dont know how i feel about it... yeah.

When i feel

the rain

cascading down

the nape of your neck

and through my

calloused hands

bringing me into

a deeper level of existance

stars burst and

fall into the rushing

waterfall filled with

new experiences

give way to highlighting

the sky with

an aura of - white -

flowers in my hair

put there

by your own calloused hands

resting on the nape of

my neck as you

spark the flame

setting wildfire to the

night - ablaze! As the

rain carves my features

plainly into beauty

solely perceived

by the raindrops

caressing my cheeks

Purifying me and remoulding

me and those same

heaven drops sacrifice

me- i surrender to

the arms that will

carry me through the

wooded glen and into

the radiance of chaste

red roses -

dewed with the very essence

of love

So to me... that poem is kinda like surrendering to love and yet finding yourself. idk. what do you think...... COMMENT please i really want to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah... i got this in an email... and it almost made me cry

*~*~*Sarah*~*~*

My name is Sarah
I am but three,
My eyes are swollen
I cannot see,
I must be stupid
I must be bad,
What else could have made
My daddy so mad?
I wish I were better
I wish I weren't ugly,
Then maybe my mommy
Would still want to hug me.
I can't speak at all
I can't do a wrong
Or else I'm locked up
All the day long.
When I awake I'm all alone
The house is dark
My folks aren't home
When my mommy does come
I'll try and be nice,
So maybe I'll get just
One whipping tonight.
Don't make a sound!
I just heard a car
My daddy is back
From Charlie's Bar.
I hear him curse
I press myself
Against the wall
I try and hide
I'm so afraid now
I'm starting to cry
He finds me weeping
He shouts ugly words,
He says its my fault
That he suffers at work.
He slaps me and hits me
And yells at me more,
I finally get free
And I run for the door.
He's already locked it
And I start to bawl,
He takes me and throws me
Against the hard wall.
I fall to the floor
With my bones nearly broken,
And my daddy continues
With more bad words spoken.
"I'm sorry!", I scream
But its now much too late
His face has been twisted
Into unimaginable hate
The hurt and the pain
Again and again
Oh please God, have mercy!
Oh please let it end!
And he finally stops
And heads for the door,
While I lay there motionless
Sprawled on the floor
My name is Sarah
And I am but three,
Tonight my daddy
Murdered me.

There are thousands of kids out there just like Sarah.

And you can help.

Sickens me to my soul, and if you just read this and
dont pass it on I pray for your forgiveness, cause you
would have to be one heartless person to not be
effected by this email *blog entry*. And because you are affected, do
something about it!! So all I am asking you to do, is take
some time to send this on and acknowledge that this stuff
does happen, and that people like her dad do live in our
society, and I pray for child abuse to wither out and die,
but also pray for the safety of our youth.

Please pass this poem on because as crazy as it might sound,
it might just indirectly change a life. Hey, you NEVER know.
Please send if you are

First of all i just walked in without giving them my ticket... whahah. i guess i'm just SO good that i get past all the security... like... not even meaning to. i was like..WHOOPS was i supposed to let them take my ticket back there? and my uncle was like... THey didnt stop you? and i was like... I didnt even notice them. *spacy* haha!

So then i got there and sat down with all of my relatives *like 40 of them...* and there were these annnnnoying (well this girl that was like... 13 thought they were hott. THEY WERENT... and they were like... weird and... perverted...) guys sitting behind me and i was like... THIS is gonna be a loooooong program because they kept asking me ?s like... how YOU doin? i'm like... OH GOD SAVE ME I'M GETTING HIT ON BY... TWELVE YEAR OLDS... and then ... (the BEST part!!!!) i was sitting there watchin the people comin in and i saw this man with a goddard seat thingy. i was like... I know people that go there!!! and then like 2 feet behind him was... DUN DUN DUN...

Jon! i was like... HEY JON!!! (how many people are named jon? they alllll turned and looked at me... :P) and first he kinda just stared at me like... who are you... you look familiar... then... Hey bri!!! haha it was great. like a reunion in front of a thousand people. funness. anyways. so he's sitting down 2 rows behind me and ... turns out he knows one of the perverted 12 year olds... haha. and i got tired of trying to talk to him like that so i just got up and asked the perverts to watch my seat (which they didnt) and went and sat by jon

So but yeah. we talked about LVR and stuff... and August... and laughed at the stupid judge freak that was trying to judge in the middle of the competition and almost kept getting run over by the marchers and the dancers... haha it wasgreat. so here are some quotes:

"LOOK!!! you're shiny!"- jon... pointing to my legs. haha it was random. :D

And then he saw some other kid he knew...
"hey jon. what are you doing here???" - other kid
"Crossword puzzles!!!!!" - jon
hahahaha... and then we'd turn around and be all like... look how grumpy they are. "they finished their crossword puzzles!!! theyre all like... i'll erase it and rewrite it!!!! GAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" hahaha great times

And then we stood up...
"OMG HOW TALL ARE YOU??????" - me
"oh... 5'2"..." - jon
"yeah... right" - me
"actually like... 6'1""-jon
"that's cool..." - me
*we're watching the people perform... and his dad stands up... whos TALLER THAN JON...*
"HOW TALL IS HE??????"
"5 foot 14." - jon
*haha... 6'2" goood loooooord that was crazy. i felt like a pumpkin.*

"DAVIS MOORE DAVIS MOORE DAVIS MOORE!!!! HARDY HAR HAR BUY MY CARS!!! I'M DAVIS MOORE!!!!" *acts all retarded* - jon

"So Bryanna is this like... your boyfriend one of them or like... the third one???" - my uncle Kris *his "joke..."*
"uhm... no... this is my friend jon..." - me
"riiiiiight." - uncle kris
*i'm used to that stuff by now... i think it was more embarrasing to jon than it was to me... haha. he was like... "YOU HAVE THREE???" i was like... no. i dont even know if i have one. that's yet to be determined... because... yeah"
