Behind the wheel

if only bicycles were cool and i never needed a licence

Sometime during this past week my little cousins came over, there are about 3 of them, including my brother, which makes 4 and including me...makes 5 (I'm recalling the number bc I know I had to get out of bed and make them breakfast. Which is not the easiest thing in the world, but my mom wasn’t home and I was scared they would starve to death...they’re kids and so little)
I honestly do love them
Even though we all get annoyed with each other and argue over who gets to be on the computer. We all are pretty much like brothers and sisters. Of the five of us, there are two girls and three boys....now why am I saying all this?
Oh right, I want to tell you what we did...

We went to Grand West, think about it, we don’t give that place enough credit and with the right people it has the potential to be epic. EPIC

So I had my right people and we set off
And after much debating we eventually arrived at some conclusion as to what we would do for the evening... wait. You’re probably wondering why I would say Grand West is epic?...no one even goes there.... But there’s just SO much to do! Movies, games, ice skating, go carts, fun rides, bowling, and they have amazing restaurants and bathrooms! Seriously. ...and now that I'm 18, lets not forget the casino ... which, I still haven’t been to and not sure I want to, isn’t it for, like, old people? What would I even do? Would I lose money? Wait...could I win money? Could I win a car? Omgosh... #ineedanswers!



So anyway, we went ice skating, which is always such a vaab, I'm really good at it, and can’t remember the last time I’ve fallen. I think I may even want skates for Christmas. Yes! And there were these two little girls who were total pro’s at skating, dancing around and doing actions to whatever song that was playing. It was pure fun. I want to go again, why didn’t we go with the Australians or something? Thats the touristy thing to do isn’t it?

After skating was Go carting...though I think we grabbed a bite to eat first, again, feeding 5 mouths is never easy. We also bumped into my dad who then was convinced to come watch us, while we went on the go carts, and in my head I already knew he would judge me on this for future driving

Lets just say I have a history of speeding? Kay thats a lie, it was that one time on a quad bike. Which my mom will never forget!

Go carting was brutally competitive, the boys where in front in the beginning but I eventually passed each and every one of them, the last  one being "a very close call" as my dad put it
But thats not what I wanted to say, I wanted to blog about what happened after that...theres another mini go cart tract, its smaller but faster, so much more faster and by the look of it...i should have known it was unsafe...but this was my chance to beat the boys. Again

So I buckled my seatbelt (a single strap) around my waist, tied up my hair, and kept my right foot down hard on the acceleration, even before the race had begun. I should have been listening to what the man was saying...but common, this thing was tiny, how complicated could it be? ... all I caught was “if you bump the side twice, you will be thrown off, no refund” and “shake the steering wheel if you get stuck”....and then we were off


Its funny how you forget things when something traumatic happens its the brains way of coping with things

I remember discovering that the more you shake the steering wheel the faster your little car went, but logically the more you shake the steering wheel, the less control you have over your little car.

 I remember passing Nicolas before we took the bend, when I swerved out of control and the front of my car touched the side of the railing but then, the next thing Nicolas came flying straight into the back of me hitting me hard and ramming me straight into the railing, spinning my little car completely sideways.
 It was loud. All the cars on the track stopped. Everything stopped.
And my seat belt hit me hard. Really hard, for a moment I thought “dear God please don’t tell me I broke my pelvis bone”,
my hair was mess and I was in complete shock!
The stupid man came over and told me “not to do it again blaaa blaaa” he was rude.
But wait, did I mention that all of this happened right infront of my father, he witnessed the whole thing and mouthed the words “are you okay?” to me...
the next three or four laps feel like a blur, and even though I was scared shitless, I still wanted to win.
Which didn’t happen

So what lesson do we learn here children? Speed kills


When we got home my dad gave a “I cant believe that out of all the go cart races I watched tonight, the only accident that happened was between my children” speech
Which involved him and Nicolas arguing about who caused the accident
 while I sat there saying...
 “but those cars were really fast and completely out of control”...every now and then

I cant say I never want to race again, I totally won the first race, did I mention I beat all the boys? But I can say I never want to go on those stupid things again bc really
“those cars were really fast and completely out of control”

The Story Behind these:
i know these are super posed and that im wearing make up and everything
but the truth is, i didnt plan this at all
My mom does this thing where she buys me clothes* ...she's an obsessive shopper
you know, like in the movies where the mom goes out and buys clothing for her little girl so she can dress her up.
Well thats my mom, still.
and so im used to coming home and finding new clothes laid on my bed, waiting for me to try on.
This evening i came home to this gorgeous dress, i remember fitting it on immediately, and then just coming to sit here by the computer in it. 
Just being on Facebook in my New Black dress, bc i can
im not sure how i came across my camera, i think i wanted to show Nicolas a few pictures on it. Oh yes, bc i had taken pictures of him, earlier...and then we decided to take pictures of my beautiful new dress, against the red wall we have here at our place
so i put on some red lipstick, and the rest is history*

despicable me [lyrics review?...kinda]


so apparently my last post was really sad
im not going to remove it, i like it
gosh, is that okay to say?

i just read the review on black swan. im scared. really. i dont want to see it anymore...
but i do
omg
and now im just scared and i dont know whats okay and whats not


:) im listening to fun fun fun by Pharrell, he wrote most of the songs for the movie Despicable Me
it is! my new fave
i cant explain how cute it is
i've been watching it over and over



and Pharrells words are great, not to mention his voice!
the lyrics to the first song "despicable me" go something like...

Im having a bad bad day
its about time that I get my way
steam rolling whatever i see,

ah despicable me

I’m having a bad bad day
if you take it personal thats ok,
watch this is so fun to see,
ah despicable me
 
(rap part)

Why ask why better yet why not?
Why are you marking x on that spot?
Why use a blow torch isn’t that hott?
Why use a chainsaw is that all you got?
Why do you like seeing people in shock?
But my question to you is why not?

[Chorus]

Why parallel when I can just park?
Why does vector think that he’s smart?
And does his dad know I know his part
Why did I have to live with my mom?
Why do you think that I should be calm?
Why want the moon, the Worlds in my palm!

and then it ends off with...

Can you chill?
Cause Gru Got the speakers and the trunk to make you
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce
To make you bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce

haha okay, i cut out some words there and maybe you should download it so you can hear him just being cool and asking the simple question of "why?"

"fun fun fun" is so happy, its written for when Gru (the lead character) is with the kids and they go to a fan park
#adorable

Take me, far away
anywhere.
       As long as it's fun fun fun fun fun fun fun I wanna go!


     The school bell rings, what ive been waiting for.
 And you just spring, and run for the door,
hey its summer mom, hey its summer dad,
 man its been so long, since the children had...
A good time


Hey, maybe it all probably takes it's toll?
 hey, but didn't i make honor roll?
either way, eat your words
it's our time we deserve.
Oh to have a good time.

Take me, far away, anywhere.
 As long as it's fun fun fun fun fun fun fun I wanna go!


No more homework, or PTA.
No more lunch food, as toxic waste.
Lets get Mickey D's? as a matter of fact, lets get happy meals, wanna sundae man?



its our time, we deserve.
Oh to have a good time.



just.makes.me.happy

late at night i become selfish

theres nothing worse than being me right now. awake
and upset
somewhat lonely



but its almost 3am and this is to be expected
"people are asleep right now lisa"
no one cares
and even if they do, they wont show it till morning
and by morning it will be to late
maybe even, less appreciated

all i want is the perfect guy with the same sleeping patterns as me
the guy who stays up with me
who loves me
...and is it crazy that this is all making me tear up (she says with tears rolling down her cheeks)
-i cry easily, things make me sad, dont judge me-


i just want people to be there always
whenever i need them
i want them to be nice
and love me

i want to go to sleep

and i cant.

so i'll send him another sms
and i'll wipe my tears

and i'll tell myself that its okay to be selfish...
its okay to want silly things and be upset

its okay to be hungry
but too lazy to go to the fridge

and lastly, its okay to be sad





passed.


i just found out i passed all my end of year exams, my parents were so happy
so am i
its just, my parents care more
and they are really good at showing their excitement

i am really proud of the A i got for Psychology
my major*

....but do i want to do this for the rest of my life? im still not sure
will fill you in when i eventually figure it out
:)

it's almost 3am

picture taken from andrea's computer (lol) or maybe she sent it to me? im not sure, i just have it and like it. also, saw those glasses today and am regretting not buying them


i had gone to bed and everything when i just thought..."i would really like to be on the computer right now" and then i was getting too hot and then thought i should close my window and it was like the universe was telling me to get out of bed...also, the smell of paint was killing me...well not actually but im just scared of the smell after what happened to my old math teacher who spent the day in a tiny room painting and then fainted in class. . . but not the good kinda faint...gosh...just thinking about it disturbs me, the one moment he was sitting on the desk and the next thing he began falling forward till he crashed to the ground, and he was a huge man and so smart, one of my favourite teachers. flip. i actually might get sick thinking about this. omg

*enter

*enter

*enter

breath.....im fine

im not going to finish that story, maybe another day (lol take that as never...ask me in person (so you can hold my hair back incase i throw up)...im not gona lie, i have a very...um whats the word Faheem uses? sensitive? no not that...anyway i have a sensitive stomach, i can get sick quite easily omg what am i typing? this was meant to be a happy blog before bed. a blogpost that would make me go sleep


i think i just saved this picture bc i thought he was hot...hmmm he is hot
they painted the wall outside my bed room hence the smell of paint, not to long ago my little brother fell through the roof, well not completely through...its a long story and an entirely new blogpost...anyway the insurance people came and got people to fix it and they painted and everything. good as new. looking at it...the colour of the wall is..."nice" i've said that three times today "this is a really nice wall colour" ...we all said it, bc thats the only way it can be described...and it is really nice!

anyway andrea jane spoke of christmas cookies and i was in bed craving them. desperatly. and then i realized that today is only Tuesday and that we will only be making them on MONDAY (yes, i was going to write this exact line on her facebook wall)

"im just gona call it the wall" - mark zuckerber

the real point of this blogpost is what i eventually found in the fridge, it was a little dessert my mom bought for me this afternoon and i had forgotten about....and goodness it was delicious. i sat here thinking "omg what is this????" ....



sweet berry sauce on top, a delicious creamy filling with and amazing biscuit crust... and then i thought "hey, this is exactly like cheese cake" ...only to look down and study it abit better and realize that it was infact cheese cake....point of my story is the biscuit craving is gone :) or it has just transformed into a cheese cake craving bc just typing this makes me want more...i actually got so hungry thinking about this that i got up and fetched some potato salad from the fridge, im sitting here eating it straight from the container, which if my mom saw, she would kill me...bc im not gona finish all of this ...in actual fact i dont even like potato

so this blog post didnt turn out at all how i wanted it to be...
i dont care tho, i started off by talking about mr murrison fainting, everything is bound to go downhill from there...did i mention that when he eventually opend his eyes, he started throwing up? have you ever seen your teacher throw up?

ah life. you can be so dramatic at times


lol ... in other unrelated news, how great is annie leibovits?...though it must suck to google your own name and not even have a picture of you pop up



her pictures are amazing though

xoxo
