here's my 2nd recent update since the legendary "update of '04" back in august. I updated about 6 times in two weeks, then stopped (entirely...sorry to disappoint you kayla!)
So what is new in the world of Laurel? We just had a computer guy come out so now my computer doesn't shut down randomly anymore (I think it was on strike for better wages). it is a poop and a half. or was... now it's okay!
Today I woke up nice and early and went to school (as did we all :( ). Zoe and I did our super boppin cool dance final, which was THE BEST! (in my opinion!)
(and hers)
(and I think pamela's too...she really liked it!)
We had a lot of interesting ones in our class, though. Everything from bellydancing to havanna nights (3x) to a really cute 80's ish dance to the friends theme song. And ours, which was very *ahem* interpretive. I'm so excited, zoe and i'll have to have a big performance to show off our mad arm skills...and leg swingy thingies...and my balancing act (its outrageous and crazy).
i love this song "put on my blue suede shoes and I boarded the plane..." omg, i think i'm going to go and jump on my bed.
whew, my mom just came in and told me to stop (she just made my bed becuase I have problems and I didn't this morning). thus ends my jumping fun. i should go out to the trampoline...but its all wet and leafy. and still broken...i still haven't fixed it from when tim tried to flip into it or whatever..i'm just sorry i missed it (from what zoe tells me it was very amusing!)
fluff...the song just ended. i think i need that cd.
list of movies laurel needs to rent:
irobot
the bourne supremecy
alfie
the incredibles
finding neverland
KING ARTHUR THE UNTOLD TRUE STORY THAT INSPIRED THE LEGEND (with zoe)
brigit jones' diary 2
TROY (orlando bloom AND brad pitt...too intriguing to miss! plus brad pitt's in a skirt. which could be slightly unpleasant, too. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT HE AND JENNIFER ANISTON BROKE UP!!! THEY WERE THE WORLDS MOST PERFECT HOLLYWOOD COUPLE! I mean, think how gorgeous their children would be. they should just have a ton of beautiful kids and then give them up for adoption so that people without kids can have really beautiful children. I mean, they were perfect! teehee, i've been reading the newspaper, and apparently all kinds of people are getting all depressed because "if those two can't work out, who can?" it makes me laugh that some people mark their own love lives by those of celebrities. but they were perfect, and it is sad. i'm going to end parenthesis now because its been a while and I think i should)
(how do you spell parenthesis. what's the singular? a parenthesy? parenthesis without pronouncing the last s? with pronouncing the last s? then how do you spell the plural? parenthesi, like octopi? or parentheseees? maybe i should look it up)
*laurel whips out her pocket dictionary...but not from her pocket because those things are a lot bigger than a pocket. it just wouldn't fit in a pocket. unless it were a cargo-pant leg-pocket. or they should just be called purse dictionaries. or man-purse dictionaries. or pant-leg dictionaries. if you were to stick it down your pants or something...not that i've *ahem* ever put anything down my pants. getting back to the subject...laurel whips out her pocket dictionary and flips to the p section...skimming the rows she skips past "paladin" (knight), "paraplegia" (paralysis of the lower trunk and legs), and "paregoric" (tincture of opium and camphor). BAM! it hits her like a large club would hit a small rodent..."parenthesis(backwards slash)p(upsidedown e)'renth(upsidedown e)s(upsidedown e)s(backwards slash) n, pl -theses" the mystery has been solved!*
okay, i looked it up and discovered that a single parenthesis is pronounced with the s on the end (i had no idea) so its "parenth-e-sis" with a short i, not a long i like parentheseeees. the plural parentheses is spelled with an e in the place of the i. it is pronounced parentheseeeees, and it is used when speaking of a pair of parenthesis. you learn something new every day!
i'm off to watch a movie...maybe one of the LOTR movies. i think i'm on the 3rd again. the radio has commenced to play stupid commercials about a guy who has to eat cereal for three months because he cant afford anything else, and the sbc joined internet and p[hone bills save hima ton of money so he doesn't have to eat cereal anymore. i like cereal. i like crispix and rice crispies and corn flakes and sometimes other things like raisen bran. and i really like lucky charms, but those magic stars are (maybe) even better than the brand name! go sarah!
i need to stop because i'm in an awkward position with my feet up ont he table and i feel like i'm about to fall off the chair.
oh, to finish with my day, laurie, zoe and i went downtown and laurie and i had the same thing for lunch and zoe had the thing she always has. then we went to zoe's and had hot cocoa (i was cold and held my hands in front of me and zoe and laurie were making fun of me and then turning up my collar or grabbing my sleeve or something and brushing of my shoes and telling me i was a pimp...i got confused, or conflustered as marie would say). then zoe made her phone call for high school beat...but she'll probably write all about that in her livejournal. then we went to lexi's house for the AFS movie and dinner..and i at a lot of dolmas (i love those things!) and we watched a boppin movie called whalerider about the girl who rides on whales.
and then i got home and checked my email and wrote this.
i still have your stool, zoe. oh, and laurie left her backpack at your house. i remembered as soon as i shut your car door, but i figured you would figure it out eventually so i kept walking (i was cold again). and i'm wearing your shirt. and i have your sheet.
adios
