You don't know what you do to me.

I'm finally finished with school for this semester! YES. I am so excited for this summer wagon to kick off and start rolling.

I mean, it's just--I LOVE school, but it really feels good to get away from it, for a little while at least.

21 Thoughts

I wonder if I'll ever get to France.

I wish I had some money in my wallet.

Should I go to Walmart this weekend?

What would I look like with blond hair?

I want to make tacos tomorrow.

I wish I hard someone to run with me.

What would it feel like to jump from a 30 story building into a tub of pudding?

I want a horse.

I want to name my horse Em.

I want Em to be grey and fast.

I wish Em was real.

If I had Em, who would teach me how to ride him?

Would Em step on my neck if I fell off of him?

The only movies Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are in, are sports movies.

Why am I watching "The Tooth Fairy"?

A Klondike would be really good right now.

How old is Gwen Stefani?

That was random.

I am SO playing soccer tomorrow afternoon.

I'm running out of thoughts...

OH! Last thought: I like cake.

Well, I think that's it for tonight; I'm soo ridiculously tired.

Sleep tight, Happy Summer, and close your eyes and imagine,
Kayla.

Ecstatic, it's almost electrifying.

Sorry I've been a little AWOL lately.
It's just the finals and the annoying people I talked about before; but I guess that was already an excuse that was used.

Well, I'm basically DONE with my finals, and I feel very great about what I did. The questions seemed to come so easily it was CRAZY.

AND GUESS WHAT?

TOMORROW is my LAST day of school for the rest of this semester. I am so... ecstatic.
LEGIT.

Well, anyway, today was so weird.
Everything moved along so slowly, it felt like I was trapped in a Floridian suburb... if that makes any sense?

My stomach also seems to be acting VERY bipolar. Okay, so maybe this weekend, I had some extra Chinese, and just a little bit too much candy, and those cheese doodles probably weren't the best idea... BUT I just took two Tums and then relief... 2 seconds later, pain.

Bleh, it hurts.

I'm sorry I seem lifeless. It's just the jolt of "NO MORE CLASSES" is almost squeezing all the possible creative sparks of five-star literature and making it into an endless stupid banter pulp.

Sorry.



This makes me crack up hardcore.

Well, the lack of inspiration has caused me to succumb to stop this post before it becomes a complete train wreck.

So, in the meantime, keep your friends close, throw meatballs at people in striped t-shirts, and always go out of your way to step on a perfect-for-stepping-on leaf,
Kayla.

I'm sorry it's almost like I've disappeared. And to be truthful, I really have been doing those small, unneeded tasks people do when they are home without plans.

Like vacuum the hallway. And watch "The Karate Kid." And fall asleep at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Or take a shower a few times a day.

Summer vacation is only good for one thing: getting away from it all.

But when you are like me (anti-camp), and your mother's car is constantly having problems (preventing me from being dropped off at my grandmother's), and you've done about every possible thing to obtain your interest--you can conclude: Summer Vacation is boring.

Now I know, about any Guido, beach bum, camp-junkie, and about 3/4 of America's population will tell you: "SUMMER RULES, DUDE."

May I just say, they said dude?

Point given.

Anyway I've basically just being hanging around my house. Watching Rachael Ray in the morning and sitting around reading the rest of the day. I've also seemed to be drawn to the dusty keyboard in the corner of my room a lot, recently. Figuring out chords to songs *cough*DON'T STOP BELIEVING*cough* and just playing them over and over again. Who knows? Maybe I'll be the next "Greyson Michael Chance"?

I'm just as pale as your neighborhood albino lifeguard, and it's so weird. I purposely don't put sun block on, sit in direct sunlight, and NOTHING happens. It's just the albino-lifeguard blood then, huh?

Oh how I wish I had a pool. A nice in-ground square concrete pool. Complete with a diving board and a painting of zebra on the bottom. That would be nice wouldn't it... now if only it were real.

Don't you hate when people are trying to compare a movie to their life?
They are always like, "Kayla, you know that movie, Say Anything?"
I answer, "Why, yes, I do. It's great..."
Then I'm cut off, "Don't you just WISH that a guy would do the boombox-thingie in REAL LIFE?"
I just want to go up to them and scream, "WELL WHAT DO YOU THINK THE PEOPLE IN SAY ANYTHING LIVE? "FAKE LIFE"?"

Yes it may be fiction, but it is a portrayal of life.

Tune in for Cake Boss, stay away from drugs, and don't step on my blue suede shoes,
Kayla.

What I ate (that I remember): An apple, pizza, and some chiken nuggets (oh yes, be jealous).

And I hope you find it, whatever you are looking for... but, would you PLEASE shut up?

"The road to truth is long, and lined the entire way with annoying bastards." ~Alexander Jablokov

Lately, most people who talk to me, just seem annoying. I don't know if it's the insane temperature drops and then gains, or the cafeteria's milk, or maybe it's just the fact that finals are starting on Thursday and it's just stressing me out.

But when certain people open their mouths to speak, all that comes out is loud drunk monkeys and car alarms.

I wish I could shut it ALL off.

This morning, I wake up. Straighten my hair. Ate a granola bar, and then got to school.

Well, I mean I was driven. But I still got to school.

Then about a thousand--well, more like 10--people attacked me, and out came the drunken monkeys and car alarms.

I just couldn't take it. I wanted to scream. I want to BITE them all. I mean, I bet they taste horrible... so maybe I won't.

But I DID do this. In the middle of math class (where we had a substitute that they were taking advantage of) I just stood up and yelled, "DO YOU NOT REALIZE OUR FINAL FOR MATH IS ON FRIDAY?! IF YOU'D JUST SHUT UP, MAYBE YOU'D REMEMBER THE STUFF ON THE WORKSHEET. IF YOU DON'T YOU ARE GOING TO FAIL!"

And just like that, I had silence. For about... 10 minutes. But a nice quiet 10 minutes indeed.

Tonight is the night of that Academic Recognition, and it's in like, 40 minutes. So after this I am definitely going to have to change into something, "professional and presentable". I was just talking to my friend Jess about it all, and we're probably going to end up sitting next to each other so that we aren't so bored.

Either way, just having to sit there is going to be boring.

It was surprisingly FREEZING this morning. I had to grab a coat. GASP. A coat in June? Yes, a COAT in JUNE.

It's a messed up world.

I'm really going to A) Be late because I'm blogging.
B) Late because my mother has to find her camera (please, no, no no!)
C) Late because I am making this list... So I guess I better go.

Never say never (OH, WAIT, TOO LATE), keep your achy breaky heart intact, and get rid of the eyebrow piercings,
Kayla.

HIGH SCHOOL NEVER ENDS.

"I've been making a list of things they don't teach you in school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing." ~Neil Gaiman

Oh, school.
The tragic pit of endless "This is how you do this...," and "...You'll definitely use this after you graduate."
Sure. I'm 100% going to NEED to know when Abe Lincoln was assassinated to buy a house and I'm going to NEED to know what a mitochondria does in the cell to buy groceries.
That is the most true statement ever. Can't you just taste the sarcasm. If you can't, well, then you need to be less of a Pollyanna and except that the world is not perfect.

I hate how teachers try to cram a bizzilion homework assignments into the last few days. For instance, I LOVE my Social Studies teacher. But, she is giving us a HUGE review packet and my final in Social Studies is on Thursday.


My Finals Schedule For this Week:
Thursday:
Science Final, Technology Final, Social Studies Final.
Friday:
Art Final, Math Final, and Reading Hall Final (Bleh).
Monday:
Skills Final (Not a Real Final, Band Final, English Final.

I am so ready for finals, because I am so ready for school to be over. Monday is the last day I have to endure, and then it's summer sun until the very end of august.

So the Relay for Life event?
It went well.

We got there at around 10 am to set up our amazing blue tent and our posters and all that jazz. Wow, I just said "all that jazz".

I walked around the track about 40 times before my first break. Then we flew kites, and some horribly, disgusting guys tried to show us how to do it. Like we were wimpy, fragile flowers. Well, my friend Erin got 3 kites all the way unraveled by herself. Take that.

We explored the lower floor of the college the event was hosted at, and escaped from the night guard by 0.000000001% and thank GOD we did. Otherwise we'd be in BIG trouble about now.

There was food, and fun, and it's a great experience for a great cause. So next time, I highly recommend anyone and everyone to attend one.

The only thing was, we were still walking @ 1 in the morning and then it started to pour when we were sleeping and the tent wasn't repelling the water well, and I got SOAKED on half my body.

But other than that, it's freaking awesome.

I have an Academic Recognition Assembly tomorrow night. What that basically is, is an assembly where the school hands out certificates and plaques to those who have obtained either: Perfect Attendance, Honor Roll, High Honors, or Principal's List. Then we go to the cafeteria and eat ice cream.

Speaking of Ice cream, I had a track sundae party today, and until the second I stepped into the building, I forgot it was today. And by then, it was too late to get my uniform. So coach told me to bring it on Thursday, oh well.

Screech like there's no tomorrow, Follow the yellow brick road, and Read some Shakespeare,
Kayla.
