Simplicity

Well, I have officially dropped out of both my AP classes. It's nice to be free of them. As an alternative I now have 2B and 3B as fit-for-life classes. I am a lot more comfortable this year running and working out and I don't feel as awkward. I have accomplished going the whole loop without stopping, which is quite a feat for me to have accomplished.
Braydon wants me to play catch in the halls. I am a little aprehensive about it because we were doing that once and he hit the light fixture above my head and rained glass shards all over my head. Wish me luck

Sweet Troubled Soul

Sometimes I wonder if I am the only person on God's green earth who loves to read informative articals. I find myself saying, "I read bla bla bla" quite a bit while the other person kind of raises their eyebrow and says something like, "Really..." If there is a profession that requires a person to read articals on the computer all day and regurgitate useless facts, I would be on it like flies on a pile of fresh horse crap- or something. Anyways, I guess sitting on my bunz reading articals is better than sucking on a hot rock. **Original Dad Gubz phrase**
I long for the summer months of freedom and warm weather all the live long day. Because I wake up every morning to the **censored** beeping of my alarm clock and getting out of bed is even worse because it has been cold and dark every morning! It's the first of October and I have been reminded that people up north have been walking on frost for the past month, but that's THEIR fault if they don't like it. I live in southern utah, it's not supposed to be this cold until December! *sigh* I guess until global warming I will have to get up in the AM with my jowls flapping as I shiver and my knees knock.
So, anyways, the football game Friday was pretty banging. I don't think our team has even been behind in score any home game this season. Usually our team plows over the opposition and leaves their heads spinning and their voices cracking, but last Friday we were going against a school who was also undefeated 6-0. I thought we might lose.... but we didn't. Yay. It was great hanging out with friends and fretting about the close scores with them.
Ewww. I just looked at the calandar and next weekend is the Gubler reunion. But maybe things aren't so bad cuz I just found out that I am marching in a parade that Saturday so I may be exempted and get to stay home alone that night. Pray fervently for me.
Anyways, today I was working on my apron and I was ironing and I set the iron down on my left pointer finger, and last week I jabbed my thumb with a needle in that same class and drew blood, so I am going to see if I can fix my owie by eating some junk food or something equally delightful.

Here I am again

Yes. Me. Procrastinating the inevitable homework. Amazing isn't it? I guess I've been pretty busy.... although with what I can't really say... today I have been watching the six-or-so long hours of Pride and Prejudice (A&E Version) and have been drooling over Colin Firth. What a day.
I got my hair cut pretty short and I am in the process of DESPERATLY missing those long locks--even with their split ends and fried middles. Since I believe New Years is only a ceremony of making goals, and that ceremony never helps, I'm making a goal right now to take good care of my hair so it can become long and free again.
Friday was a grand day, mostly because of the football game and the extra short classes. It was pretty exhilirating getting up during half-time and performing the West Side Story themed field show. The lights were bright and the crowd was crazy. I think it was worth the hours and hours of laborious work, stiffened and calloused fingers, and the loss of sleep for those five-or-so minutes of performance. Also, it's nice to be in some sort of school organization. It gives me something fun to accomplish during the long hours of tedious school work.
Reading back on some of my blogg entries I realize that they lack sense and organization--mostly just a random splattering out of my fingers, through the keyboard and onto the screen. I don't care so much.
Anyways, I am saving my money (again) for a nice shopping trip. Since I don't have a real job, the money oozes into my greedy hands very slowly, but it adds up. I realize that I have gone through the process of saving for shopping trips often, but I always end up spending the money on other things before I get the gratification of trying on clothes and sifting through racks, so I am having my mother hold onto my money. Till January I will wear my old frocks and suffer the ill-fits until I can be gratified with the trip.
Hmm. My eyes are getting droopy and my fingers clumsy as the clock rolls to 10:08pm. It shows how low I have been slung because of this thing called "public education."

The light at the end of the tunnel is the headlight of the oncoming train

So, yeah. School has started, so that means life has resumed its natural craziness. I thought I would see my friends all the time, but I don't really cuz I have a class in the morning which just evolves into my first hour, and then I haven't been getting to school early enough in the morning to talk to said friends even though I now have a car *rejoicies* but I like my sleep. It sucks, the whole not seeing friends. My classes are crazy, well, I guess I was crazy signing up for them. I was in a dance class, but I really wanted to get out of it, so I took honor's english again which is like the plague. Homework just keeps piling up cuz I procrastinate cuz of the block schedule and then never do what I'm supposed to. Plus, classes are so freakin long. Agh. It's hell sitting through an hour and a half of English, precaculus, spanish, ap biology, ap history, and seminary!!!!! But, anyways, this is short cuz I'm gonna take a nap or something cuz I have to get up bright and early tomorrow (:() *yawn* and I think it's gonna rain and stuff. Terminated.

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it

I got Rise Against's cd, Siren Song of the Counter Culture, yesterday--amazingly en0ugh, I didn't get a good night's sleep even though it was in my stereo. But it is a beautiful cd. *Irisis turn to hearts in eyes* So, it'll be nice when school starts again so I can get on a sleep schedule. I can't believe school is starting in a couple weeks, summer has wizzed by. I can't wait to see my friends every day, although I am not looking forward to block schedule, and I won't get to sleep in the extra half hour either cuz I have an early-morning class. Also I have to learn to drive a stick shift (my dad's jeep) so I can drive to school. But, I might be coming into another Dodge Aries.. a little newer than Gwen was. It's an ugly car though, but it's a car. It was my cousins, but she got a powder-blue jeep so she doesn't need it anymore, so it was offered to me.
Also, I have been busy re-doing my room and painting. I'm tired of the smell of fresh paint, the scrubbing of paint brushes and rollers, digging paint out of my fingernails and ALL that jazz. I got some paint in my hangnail so now it's infected.... On a happier note, my neice's cat, Princess, had kittens. She is a small cat and her stomach was like the same size as the rest of her. After she had had them, noone could find the babies for two days and thought she had abandoned them or they were dead-sad. But Liam found them in the back of my sister's van. Thankfully it was rainy and not dry heat these past few days. But, anyways.... eh.... I went school shopping yesterday. Shopping is the spice of life I do declare. Although I had to buy another hair straightener cuz mine gave out. The little chicken shit. That thing cost fourty bucks and it died so suddenly.
Well, I have nothing left to say except I have been living in filth the last week! My clothes are piled in the corner and on top of my keyboard. All the contents of my closet are scattered about my room and there are peices of splintered wood. Blaha. I'm going now.... truly....
Me in the dressing room...

I love the Wayan brothers *heart*

HELLO!

Ahhh. Life has been treating me better these past days. I've been busy working for money for school clothes this year--I have to buy my own since I'm gonna be a junior, which sucks cuz it's gonna empty my pockets quite a bit. Anyways, I went to Lagoon last week, which was pretty fun. Me and Braydon were going on the ride across the park (which freaks me out anyways) and we were both kinda petrified... then it stopped! Gaaa. Did it stop over a nice tree? No. Of course not, it's my misfortune. It stopped right in the middle over the cement. I froze. The stupid yellow cart thing bounced from the sudden stop and I was cussing quite the blue-string. Fred Durst would have been shocked. I was freaked out- it was probably the scariest ride I went on. FYI-- the new ride "the bat" was lame. It bounces your head back and forth so you have to force it to stay still. It's short and it's lame. Save yourself. Anyways, I got to see my hot cousins at the reunion, which was very dull cuz its mostly old people and young kids.
Three days ago, I was just hanging around, nothing too important to do, and my oldest brother, Adam, appeared needing to use the van to go to the mall. He offered to take me cuz he needed to buy a whole new Sunday outfit cuz he was blessing his new baby, Caleb Douglas. So, I went and had a blast. He even modeled the outfits he was trying on for me. When he bought his Kenneth Cole shoes (120$) I about fainted, but he was pleased. The next day he looked smashing and I pride myself on being somewhat of the cause of that. So, if a person has money burning holes in their pockets, I'm available to help you spend it!
Also, I have persuaded my dad to redo my closet--put shelves in it, add an extra bar to hang clothes, etc. So, I have had mondo fun choosing what I want and stuff.
I have also discovered a new band who I absolutly LOVE. The name is... Rise Against. I will not have a decent night's sleep until I have that cd in my stereo.
A couple weeks ago, when I was at the doctor's, he listened to my lungs and said they sounded like an old person's lungs- something about the air sacs not staying open or something. That scared me cuz he had me do an X-ray and stuff. Thankfully it wasn't too serious, but those 15 or so minutes I was waiting for him to look at the X-rays were SO scary. So I have devised a running program to get my lungs to their best. I will need all the luck I can get to keep it up. But, afterwords, we were in his office and I started coughing and I couldn't stop. Gag. That sucked cuz I was almost vomiting and there was nothing I could do about it. So, the Doc. and my mom just watched me while I tried to get myself under control, with tears squeezing out my eyes from the exertion.
Anyways, my sister-in-law, Sabra just left with my nephew, Kael. She's pregnant again! I'm happy cuz Kael is the cutest little kid. He calls me Docie. Sabra also promised me a pair of pants she got off Ebay that usually cost like 200$, but she got for 30$ cuz the girl said they were "last season". I'm freakin' happy about life now. I have estimated how much it's gonna cost me to buy my own school everything and it's gonna cost a pretty penny.
Anyways, I'm going to go nap or something cuz tonight I'm going to Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat musical at Tuicaun--or however you spell it.

I thought this pic was pretty cool. So it's now on my blog.

Pajamas

Today I got up at nine-thirty and promptly went and sat in front of the "boob-tube" (appropriate since I am currently watching the ten/eleven hour marathon of "America's Next Top Model") Yes, it has been a direly dreary drabby day for me. I have a major fever and have since Saturday--rising from 100 to 103.4. I can't say it hasn't worked entirely against me though, I have been getting sympathy serving from Mom and even my little brother.
Anyways, I went to Disneyland for the first time and lurved it. I still think I like Lagoon better. But, dude! That Walt Disney guy sure knew his stuff when it comes to dazzling people. I still wonder if he really was frozen under the castle when he died.
Me and Mom went to see Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants on Friday. Ho-lee-cow! I am in love with that movie. It goes on my top list of favorite chick-flicks. It didn't hurt that Costas was totally a babe. Grrrowl. But, the movie, it was totally good, tearworthy, and just... awesome.
Bla, I'm already bored... you'd think that someone who hadn't really moved from one position for... all day.... wouldn't be so flighty and bored as easily as I am. Oh. Kesse just got eliminated. That's good. Bla. No more. Truly. I don't even have a picture for this entry.
Bye

I have a mind like a steel trap; it is rusty and illegal in 47 states

Holy crap. Terryn (my eight-year-old nephew) is a strange-un. For dinner we had KFC and all he wanted was chicken.... but did he eat the chicken???! No. He picked off the skin and meat and ate the bones! Gag me with a spoon. Bla.
Anyways, I am into summer 2 freakin' days and am already bored out of my skull! Grah. Thank goodness for friends who will pick you out of the miserable boredness you are currently wallowing in and try to brush some sanity back onto you. It doesn't always work though. Next week I'm going to California for a few days, so that will ease some of the burden off my weary shoulders. I hope I don't get sunburned again. After going to Sand Hollow on Tuesday I am still picking off bits of skin from my nose and between my eyes (yes, gross) and still trying vainly to restore my normal paleness.
I'm also tasting the bittersweetness of growing up. I'm going to be a junior next year, only one year away from being a senior. I loved being a freshman (believe it or not) and seriously loved being a sophmore.... change is a hard pill to swallow. It makes one wonder what they (meaning me) am going to do when they get out of high school. I want to be a physical therapist..... but I also don't. I don't want to be anything but a high school student mooching off their parentals because I know I can pull that off.
But, these summer months have caused me to develope a strong movie-watching skill. I discovered that I can go to the library and check out movies. That is a wonderful thing. I have grown fond of the old movies. My favorite being Pride and Prejudice with Sir. Laurence Olivier (he was cute! too bad he's dead). Robin saw that I had watched it and promply dug out her version of Pride and Prejudice from her moving pile. Its...six movies long. Wow. I haven't seen such a group since V.
Anyways, I was chatting with Kyle J-- but the little turd seems to have left the area. So I'll leave and exercise my skill (movie watching) with Finding Neverland. Always remember: Humpty-Dumpty was pushed!

Some Last-day-of-school pic. (more posted later)

Forgive the HUGE pictures.... that's my camera.... maybe I will fix them later.... not now.
--Joce--

I'm insured by the mafia. You hit me--- we'll hit you.

Yayayay!!! I have passed my driving test. I know it wasn't supposed to be anything too deathly hard, but, being me, I was worried. So, tomorrow me and Dad are going to the DMV and getting my freakin' license!!! Gaaaaa!!!! It's nice to know that I don't have any more sessions of driving with Adamson to look forward to. Look out world. Heheh. No, seriously, look out.

I'm so frickin' NOT pissed!

The Chronicles of Jocelyn and Gubler

I have figured out that out of all seven of my classes I only like 4 of them. I guess that's not bad, but two of those classes I'm not too sure about the liking process. Anyways, I dipped into my 16th birthday fund and now only have like ten dollars. It wasn't my fault! Nicole called and was like "Hey, I'm going to St. George- wanna come?" Of course I melted. How can I resist a shopping trip? It's like chocolate- irresistable. When I got there it was heaven! Nearly everything on clearance because of after Christmas. I already have plans to go shopping next year at that time.
Anyways, today in English, I proved my 'un-honorism' by not bringing my essay we have been working on for the past months. So, in forth hour, I went to the computer lab to print it off and found out that the disk was being a poo-head and was screwed up. I wanted to cry... not really- I was just majorly pissed. Thankfully it works on my computer, so tomorrow I'm gonna have to get on my hands and knees and beg Ms. May for forgivness.
But, yesterday was a water day- kind of like a snow-day, but only with water. I doubt a snow day will ever happen here- and I'm fine with that cuz snow just sucks. Its just so cold and miserable. I am a summer personage because you can never go wrong with summer. :) P.s.- I love Papa Roach's new song 'Getting away with murder'!!! It makes me smile!!!!! AHHH!!!!!!!!!! And of course Savior by Skillet. (we don't want any songs to get their feelings hurt now).
Heh- don't put cats on your head. **Notice it's a guy in the picture**

Una notte e forse mai piu

NO MORE FIT FOR LIFE! Ever! I believe in miracles! Yes'm. I think the fumes from my spray paint spree and my horrible hair dye are finally getting to me. Damon and Sabra, my dearest brother and sis-in-law have just sent their X-mas presents. I got two wonderfully hot charms for my bracelet- Orlando Bloom enriched charms actually. Well.... its been a while since I have posted, so I will tell of my Christmas vacation. Actually, it kinda sucked cuz I was just getting a cold so I couldn't really do anything during my recovery. I am now incredibly sick of Garlic and this alcaholic indian herbal medicine that tastes like rotten peas. Anyways, being the ball of sunshine that I am, I will change the subject off my miserable, obnoxious, rotten, pitiful, crappy, stupid virus.
I got a sterio system for my wonderful car. I also named my wonderful car Gwen because I felt like it. My little car is a 1982 Dodge Aries four door sedan that only had an a.m. radio, so you see my strife. I guess it was kinda fun trying to sing along to the jazzy christmas songs, but I prefer my new Firehouse cd to Jingle Bells sung 50 different ways.
Oh goodun'z. I love Adam Sandler, but I extracted his cd "What the hell happened to me" onto the computer..... and...... lets just say its not one a person should listen to in front of their mother. Its actually quite a funny cd though. I love "The adventures of the cow" and "Joining the cult" off the cd.
Gaaa.... this blabbering on is somewhat a stress reducer but probably doesn't make a whole lotta sense.
Also, I just added some picz onto my photobucket album. Hrmm.... I don't know how to share it.... I know hottie ***** shared his on his myspace thingie. Too tired to make a lotta sense, to lazy to get my arse off the computer.

The Gut of me

Today Katie came over and we worked out for at least two hours or more! Twas grand. Except I went to Young flipping frappin' womens and ate a cookie and came home and had two cinamon rolls and hot chocolate. Oh well, I deserve it. And only two days till Drivers Ed! My cary-car-car is all charged up after two years of not being driven....well actually it was when my bro and fam had car trouble..... but that was a year ago.... anyways, so he's gonna take it in tomorrow and get it checked up. I love it! I just want to jump around and do something.... anyways, me and Cyndi are going to St. george sometime soon to get material and all that for matching poodle skirts- I'm actually excited about getting dressed up, but the dance part will not be too fun. Anyways. I'm quite tired now, but I am chatting with a dear old friend (who is immature just like me!) for the first time so I am staying on for her sake.... yeah, of course it would never be the fact that I am too lazy to get up and do anything! Of course not. Dude, I can't wait to go on the road trip for junior year. Too much excitment too little time. Shiz! I love the teenage years!

Mayonaise

I hate the cold. It sux. Dad is getting my car taken into the machanical place to get it all primped and polished-ya know- plus registered and tuned so I don't get pulled over and taken in or so the car doesn't start falling apart in the middle of the road. That would suck because I could end up just skidding down the freeway in my drivers seat holding the wheel. Like in that extreme sport Goofy cartoon........ Whatever. 3 Freakin' dayz! Anyways, I have decided that to celebrate my sixteenth birthday (which is like the major turning point in one's life), I will save up my cashola and the Saturday morning after I am 16 and have my lisence, I am going to get up and spend the whole day shopping all by myself. Slightly freaky, but very exciting. If I get into my jar with the cash I have in it, I will be pissed off later. I hate freshmen. Especially the ones that make you wish they were a year older. *drool drool* *sob* Yeah. Yesterday I decided to deep-condition my hair. So I did--with mayonaise. It still holds the lovely smell even though I was in the freakin' shower for an hour, half of that time I was shampooing my hair over and over again. I wish I could fly and eat chocolate. But.... I don't.
Well, I do eat chocolate, but its bad for me in a good way. Echo was all happy and ready to get her lisence, but when she went to get it, they told her she had ten more hours to drive on her permit! I would die!!! At least I don't have the chance of that happening.... hopefully.... they wouldn't change it again before April.... would they????! Gaaaa.

Muahaha

Today was another grand day. I have surmized that my strange moods have been due to lack of sleep. Yes. The &^($ing end of the quarter always messes me up. So, my extra-hyper -> brain dead(drain bread)ness is due to that because I got an extra hour of sleep last night and today my mood was more mellow. Strange. You'd think it would be the opposite. But anyways, today Malissa and Katie came over and we took some grand pictures. 208 pictures actually. We looked pretty damn sexy in some of them and pretty..... not in others. And then it was off to Kyle's homestead for a movie night. And then back to here were I had a bath and have been sitting my tush at this computer since. And tomorrow, maybe some chicken murdering perhaps. The dumb bird ran out and scared the crap out of moi. Its like a ghost. I don't usually see it during daytime, but at night I can hear the cats getting at it and its screams. I wish Will or Harrius would just kill it! Anyways. After the cleansing of the homestead, I will spend the rest of the day lazing around watching pointless movies or something. Unless I get another oppertunity which could happen.
Anyways. I have been craving beef for like weeks and I finally got some an hour ago. A Wendys cheesburger delux or something. Very delightful.
Gaaaaaa. I am so freaking tired!
>Hrmmmm..... maybe that is a hint that I should go to bed.....It is, after all, almost twelve thirty....
This is Woodberry. On the day that Katie and Malissa were supposed to come over, they ended up not, so I took some pictures anyways.

Ahhh... sweet serenity

I am now relaxing. I talked to a certain personage today.... so today can't be a total bust. I love chocolate. Why is it that all the delicious foods are so terribly bad?! sour gummy worms. Freshmen are weird people. Freshly discovering their manhood... never mind..... I wish I could fly... but I will settle for a driver's licence. 14 freaking dayz till learners permit and pandamonium on the streets hehe. I just bit into a worm and splurted on the screen. Shiz I am so freaking hyper....

The terrors of my day

Gaaa. I just got out of my fit for life class- and as always- I had an adventure. X- Yeah, we were supposed to be dancing the "cha cha cha" (which is SOO gay) but the cheerleaders were in the main gym so we didn't have musak to dance too. How sad. So we had a free day till the last five minutes. And the gym teacher with her extremely high pitched yelling told us to line up- girls in one boys in another. She taught us womenfolk first with they guys behind us probably watching the jiggling of our butts as we cha cha cha-ed. Then she taught the guys while us girls had to go practice with our backs turned to from the guys (rats). Then she told us girls to go choose one of the menfolk. I about had a heart attack, not literally but mentally.... so more of a brain/peeing my pants attack.... After the initial shock I was thinking 'Bob?...' in my shy thinking. Never was I so glad to hear the bell. And then, sitting on the bus I was day dreaming about driving. Only 22 more freakin' days till drivers ed! That is if they don't kick me and Katie out for being in there more than three months before our sixteenth birthday... hehe... it was only supposed to be three months. Oh well, we can overcome the opposition. I don't think the Drivers Ed class is even required by law or anything cuz my mom didn't take it when she got her licence. But, uh, that was quite a few years ago. Plus she grew up in Canada. Ahhh... the joy and wonder of being sixteen. You can quit school. Not that I'm planning to. I don't want to be one of those dead beats who work at Taco bell instead of going to school. Well, I am going to do something else..................

Random Comic:

It would suck if it rained cats and dogs....

Dude!!!!! I love rain!! It helped one good thing come out of my seventh hour class (fit for freakin' life) since never.... well I guess the free days aren't so bad but anyways- no tangents. Yes, I was running the loop and it started raining a little bit. I thought Jerk-a would still make us run since he's just mean, but I saw other people running towards the door and him and his preppy little aide high-tailing it towards the school and I felt the lovely surge of ultimate joy! I stayed outside for a while though- making myself look like a clown/wet dog but I don't care!!!!!!!!! It was a fabulous day cuz when I got in, I had twenty minutes to get dressed into normal clothes. I was too lazy to take my lovely gym clothes home so they will probably smell something awful tomorrow but I'm too happy to let it poke my eye. Life is good. I feel so happy right now I think I will get off and do something else! How grand is that??? Ok ok- enough jabbering.....

Random Piccy:

Random knowlege: "Man who live in glass house should change clothes in basement." **very true.... unless that man was a hot man....**
