Am I going to post here EVERY DAY?

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

To be entirely honest, my life is going really well right now. Whether this is a long term thing or a two day thing, I'm not sure, but I'm enjoying it either way. Two whole days of sunshine and happiness have gone by. I must say that it's been quite excellent.

I'm currently listening to "Music from Degrassi: The Next Generation." I'm not sure if there are multiple Degrassi albums (for every season?) but I'm listening to the one from 2008. I know, Degrassi got lame after (nvm... insert spoiler here from a few seasons ago), and yes some people just find that show to be lame in general, but it was fun to watch. Oh Canadian teenagers, how I envy you and your exciting, dramatic lives. This album is a compilation of quite a few artists that I am fond of as well as some crap that I don't like and a few that I don't know. I'm not sure why I'm writing this here... but anyway, that's that.

I'm reading The Princess Bride right now. It's definitely become one of my favorite books even though I'm only 250 pages in (I think that's around halfway). The Princess Bride is my favorite movie of all time, so it just makes sense that I'd like the book, right? Well... I guess that logic is flawed since book movies tend to stray from their books, but still, that was my logic in choosing to read it. I'm thinking of putting off the last 200 or so pages for about 2 weeks so that I can use it for my independent reading project coming up in English, but... well it's not like she'll care if I read the book that week or three weeks ago, right? RIGHT. :D

You probably don't care about any of this, do you? What do blog readers like to read? Do I need a theme? Should I just keep writing whatever I'm thinking at the time? Should I refrain from posting poems? Hum. So many questions. SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TO DO!

Just kidding. I feel like I don't use exclamation points enough. It's quite sad. Maybe I should use them more often. Let's try it! Ohh, that looks nice! I'm really liking this! (Okay, it's getting a little annoying now, right?)

This post is officially declared LONG ENOUGH! GOODBYE!

Hugs and more hugs,
Norah

p.s. hello there!

I like this site so far. I've figured out how to find people with interests in the same things as me, so that has been pretty fun to explore. That sentence doesn't read well but I'm too sleepy to try and fix it.

I watched the movie Pretty in Pink on Friday night. It was an ok movie but the ending... well I don't want to give anything away, but John Hughes, WTF? That was just lame. I do like some of his other movies, but Pretty in Pink made me make a frownie face. I don't like doing that.

On the upside, today was magnificent beyond belief. I don't think I stopped smiling for more than 45 minutes (a very exact amount of time due to the fact that all of my classes are 45 minutes long, and one of those classes includes trig). It was (I think) 65 degrees outside! Which is amazing for me. This time last year, there was snow all over the place. I'm hoping it's gone for this winter. I love snow... just not in any month but December. So the weather was great, which put me in the best mood ever, and I had TWO classes with substitutes, one of whom is my FAVORITE substitute teachers ever, so that was fun. I wore my awesome new socks from the boyfriend's aunt (yes, she makes me socks and I like them a lot!) which was also lovely.

Of course, no perfect day is complete without a visit to the boyfriend's house. I visited with him and his mom. He kicked my hiney at checkers but I owned him at Candy Land! Booyah. His mommy made pasta that was yummy. I love her. She's awesome. Ok ok I love him too... but his mom just makes my day sometimes. Is that weird?

I feel like I'm writing too much. I think I'm getting overexcited about having a blog again... and... readers? :O whoas.

I shall leave you with this!
(I promise this isn't becoming a photo blog but today I just feel like leaving a picture.)

Love always,
me.

I love Scrabble.

Thus, I have begun my blogging life once again...

I'm not sure yet what I want to do with this blog, but I do want to update it regularly.

I think I'll keep this entirely disconnected from everyone I know in person, at least for now. Who knows, it might change later on. For now though, this is for me and whoever happens upon this page.

A little about me? My favorite juice is Ocean Spray white cranberry-strawberry. It is absolutely delicious. I also really love Converse shoes. I still have my very first pair (they still fit, I still wear them). I'm a pack rat. I'm greatly looking forward to my senior year of high school (which is next year). I love music, but really, who doesn't? I just went to a nearby record store for the first time... I haven't been in a record store since the Tower Records near my home closed down. Purchased a Van Morrison album for my boyfriend for our upcoming anniversary. Hopefully he will like it.

I'm sure there are million things I could write here right now... but I don't really want to. Right now I want to figure out everything I possibly can about blogspot, since I've never used it before. I'm wondering if it works like livejournal. Hopefully I'll have more to write later.

ttfn!
