jus like sarah i took will cut the hair

hooray! i just figured out how to ajust the volume on my cell phone. i'm embarassed to be such a retard, it was totally obvious! anyway no more listening to our mothers screaming into the phone, olivia! yes!

i chopped off all the hair yesterday.yes, it is all gone now, but i can't say that i miss it. it's so easy to wash and takes way less time to blow dry. not that you really care how long it takes me to blow dry my hair, but it's exciting for me!

guess what? i got the coolest thing ever yesterday! i had to go to this golf tournament dinner to claim a portuguese scholarship that i was awarded.at first, mucho boring. the dinner was supposed to start at 6, but the golfers didn't finish until 7:20, however, once it got started, i found the night quite entertaining. But the best part of all was the humongus check they gave me. it's all publisher's-clearinghouse-win-the-lottery style. i was so excited! you have no idea.it's so fun! i think i shall hang it on my wall for all to see! hooray!

PS-i NEED all of your addresses to mail the luau invites. WARNING:if i do not have your address within three days, you are in grave danger of not being invited, and you don't want that!

warning: what you are about to read may or may not be true...

today i consumed a blt sandwhich, 4 cookies, 3 slices of pizza, a handful of tangerine jelly beans, 3 strawberries, 2 stems of grapes, 4 pork ribs, and 2 slim fasts which i downed as substitute "hot chocolates." And when i stuck my index finger down my throat wondering if the glitter polish would make me sick, my ultimate goal was not to unload the before mentioned but to possibly throw up so much that my heart and whatever organs i have left, would end up afloat in a pool of red tainted water, dripping with my tears and insanity. and then, maybe, i could no longer feel the unexplainable swelling up of tears, the rapid thudding and constant pressure against my temples, the urge to lash out at the open air hoping praying that my sharp nails will come into contact with something tangible

i dont wanna be me i dont wanna be here

oops, sorry for the double post- i accidently hit the button twice:(

wow, last nite was so much fun! mike and i stayed up until all hours of the nite, listening to our our old cassettes-yes, cassettes, those things we used before CDs. We had our little mixes that we recorded off the radio-i'm talking '96-'98 era. i forgot how good the music was back in the day! anyways, we decided to burn our favorites onto a junior high mix CD, so we'll still have the music when our cassettes melt and cassette players become antiques. it was the funnest thing ever! remember oldies but goodies like "ironic", and bands like sublime, third eye blind, everclear, butthole surfers, the cardigans, and the old blink 182, weezer and green day? good times.

look at me what do you see? am i really more, jus a dream... am i something that you need or just an image of me... and if u stare into the fire too long, its the flame of strong... or if ur lost inside a fantasy, does it end with me... so if you think that ur in love wit me or is it just the whole idea... you must be sure that every single thing is whut u believe... if every drop of rain stayed in the sky would the world just die... or earth revolved around a diff sun would our lives have begun... so if u think that ur in love wit me tell me can u still be free... for on the surface of most everything something hides within...

hey guys-next time you are at costco, beware of elves! i guess dan's had an elf-spotting there. oh and lisa, thank you for sharing that sweet bit of info with the family. i will never live it down now. and by the way, miss newon, i don't think you're working up to your full potential.

ok, so yesterday i went outside to ask the parents something, and the dad was getting rid of the barbeque bacause the brothers found rats in it, and i told my mom "you'd better take advantage mother, beacuse i'm in a cleaning mood and there's nothing left in my room to clean". i must admit the chaotic garage was a bit tempting. and the mother says she thinks i'm "nesting".and i was like "mother, that is the most ridulous thing i have ever heard!" and she's all "it's true, you get into cleaning mode once a month, mark it on your calendar, all women do it. that's why they clean the house and knit slippers when they are pregnant"."you're insane, mom" i tell her, but now that i think about it, it just may be true...

I guess I missed one deep late night convo the other day, but the father was signing the brother up for the SATs. Remember those days. Waking up at the buttcrack of dawn to drive to some random high school and take an impossibly hard standardized test with a room full of strangers. Good times. I tried to post something last nite, but, alas, the computer would not allow me too. It fascinates me really. Man can build rockets that travel to the moon and back, artificial respirators that breath as a human would and sustain life, and yet he cannot make a descent computer that will not break down. It’s saddening. Anyways, your sleepover withdrawls will soon be taken care of with my fourth of July luau/fireworks extravaganza/sleepover! All are invited, and we have lots of fun in store so you definetely do not want to miss this. I understand if you are unable to get out of the traditional family barbeque, but you can still come afterwards for the sleepover, because that’s when the real fun happens anyway. Also, I think I shall cut the hair. I really don’t want to deal with washing and drying it in the communal showers next year. But should I cut an inch? Two? Three? Or perhaps pull an upchuck? Let me know. I value your opinions.

its 12: 30 am and i jus cant seem to fall asleep. too much excitement for one day. so i as i was casually flipping through my handy fireside bible i happened (by chance of course) to come across some pretty interesting passages and i thought, that this being the HE Site i should share my good fortune with all.

Genesis Chapter 6: When man began to multiply on earth and daughters were born to them the sons of heaven saw how beautiful the daughters of man were and so they took for their wives as many of them as they chose. Then the Lord said: "My spirit shall not remain in man forever since he is but flesh. His days shall comprise one hundred and twenty years." At that time the Nephilim appeared on earth after the sons of heaven had intercourse with the daughters of man, who bore them sons. They were heroes of old, the men of renown.

Wow kids?!?!?! isnt that just so interesting! I mean it just knocks my socks off. There are several other little tidbits about the good ol' Nephilim in the Bible but it would take much more than one night to look up it all. Hmm? Could giant sex craved angels have really roamed the earth? Well...it is in the Bible so it must be true right? And why leave out the Book of Enoch? Is there something we must not know? The answer must come from reading further...right? Or maybe...just maybe...im looking into this a "little too deeply."

OMG i think i just watched what is quite possibly the most ridiculous movie ever made! only the boredom of summer would posess me to watch "howling III: the marsupials". it is the stupidest thing ever! i missed the first half hour, but i guess these two scientists find this new species of half wolf-half humans, that can morph from human form to animal form and back. then some kid falls in love with one, does the nasty, and they have some stripped hairy son that lives in the mother's pouch for like 3 days before becoming a seemingly normal human child. then the government gets involved and tries to make the wolf things extict, but the scientist betrays them and sets the freaks free, falls in love with one and runs off to the forest to start a family with it. after a few years the first couple and their son get sick of being in hiding, and move to LA, where the marsupil mother becomes the actress Loretta Carson. 15 years later, the second scientist tracks down the first one in the forest and tells him that the government now supports the half wolf-half humans and that he is a hero, so they move back into society too. And in the last scene, on national TV, Loretta morphs into her beast form after winning best actress because too many people are taking pictures of her at once. and then the movie ends. that was the most wasted hour and a half of my life! i can't believe someone actually came up with the idea for this horrible movie-and was allowed to make it. it saddens me. never watch the sci-fi channel out of boredom-it will upset you too. i am sorry for making you read this ridiculous story. my apologies.

hey amber, does dan miss me? hehe... we need another HE outing guys! i miss you all! oh yeah... heres a pic from my grad party...


diane would kill me

but yeah... i feel like dancing... lets go clubbing guys! or another show... all i do now is write insane british stories... and read... help me! save me!

so, i consulted the dream dictionary, since i cannot sleep because i woke up at 1:00pm today, and...dreaming of graduation predicts a substantial rise in business or social status, dreaming others are ill means you can exoect to be upset by a broken promise, the restaurant signifies pleasent social activities associated with business, a comfortable life and community recognition are predicted in a dream of riding in or driving a truck, the prescence of your brother signifies great domestic security, and cries of sadness or distress predict glad tidings. so basically, monica, your nightmare turns out to be a good omen, but beware of broken promises...

AHHHHHHHH! how scary! i have to admit he does look like he could be my dad. i'm so disturbed by it. you suck perez! why? this must stop now! what is with the little head cock in photo #2? what is this, glamour shots? your camera must be confiscated. no more of this. note to self:stop agreeing to go along with your friends crazy suggestions.

curiosity did not kill the cat at all.think aboout it.only a curious cat would have the courage and desire to kill a mouse, hunt down food, find a mate, and have more cats.those cats lacking curiosity would sit around idly all day and accomplish nothing.not that it would be a bad thing.we could use a few less cats in this world.

OMG my house is now a Halo haven! for those of you lucky ones without brothers, halo is some totally unfun game that all three of my brothers, andrew and his brother, and jim are all obsessed with. they play it hours on end. i don't know how they don't get bored. it's quite pathetic really. oh, and i bear no resemblance to certain people i was forced to take pictures with, miss jade. no relation whatsoever. that was just cruel. and another thing, just to inform all: the name "santos" is of western european descent, not asian. i can assure you that my portuguese ancestors posessed the name long before their brilliant race decided to go on massive exploring sprees and interbreed with others. hence the name was mine first. And on top of that, certain people don't even pronounce it right. the correct pronunciation is "sunch". Elitists forever!

sorry to those i was chatting with last nite.demonic computer cut me off from the internet.for you fellow strokes and hives fans, they will be on leno and conan tonite.i'm so excited!.more from the vault of mike and my crazy humor later.and of course, more song lyrics.

this one is always fun!

ghost chickens
(to the tune of ghost riders in the sky)

a chicken farmer went out one dark and dreary day
he rested by the coop as he went along his way
when all at once a rotten egg hit him in the eye
it was the sight he dreaded...ghost chickens in the sky

chorus
bok, bok, bok
bok, bok, bok,
ghost chickens in the sky

the farmer had raised chickens since he was 24
working for the colonel for 30 years or more
killing all those chickens and sending them to fry
now they want revenge...ghost chickens in the sky

chorus

their feet were black and shiny, their eyes were burning red
they had no meat or feathers, these chickens were all dead
they picked the farmer up and he died by the claw
they cooked him extra crispy and served him with cole slaw

hey! i have song lyrics i want to post too!
this is a little tune mike and i wrote circa '94.

the wierd day

one morning i woke up feeling bad
then i heard the neighbors scream "egad!"
i decided to take a shower
when i realized it was lunch hour

chorus:
the wierd day
the wierd day
the wierd day
the wierd day

so i sat down in my chair
and ate my underwear
then i ate some smelly socks
they gave me the chicken pox

chorus

i went down to the bar
got drunk and stole a car
told the police it wasn't me
then i had an urge to pee

chorus

i decided to go in a bush
i fell and landed on my tush
i hit my head on a pan
but i died a happy man

some people make their living by using ropes. ever wonder how to do an american whipping or how to snake a rope? well...here's the answer to all ur long awaited questions...pass the twine through the rope with a needle...pass the twine round the rope once, back and forth across the whipping, alternately over and under its top and bottom turs...taking the loose end round the standing part first and passing it down through the bight making a figure-of-eight knot...pass the end up through the bight and haul taut

my man...hmm??? this is all too familiar!!! could there be a hidden message??? and i always thought u were one to believe that this "type of man" is worth nothing...!!! no tears...no blood...nothing...!!!

humiliation by the way is a truly terrible emotion...it's at the bottom of the pile...much worse than fear i believe...why do we have to have humiliation? if only i could toss it somewhere...and while i was at it i would get rid of anger, hurt (especially hurt), compassion, betrayal, and selfishness...oh and guilt, definitely guilt...its outta there...and then maybe...i could snap back into some sort of comfortable state of denial...if only i were that lucky...you kno someone once told me...okay it was brie...she said that dwelling on recent conversations was a sure path to insomnia...sounds philosophical but she prob got it off some crappy hallmark card...??? she also told me to not be too creative wen writing the story of my life...but the thing is im not trying to be creative here...i jus want something normal...to live in a normal pink house with a normal family with normal friends with a normal boyfriend (and i use that term loosely) where nothing but normal stuff happens to happen to me...but this is a tangent...tangent is a heinous word for 2 reasons...(1) it appearred in my pre-calc book a class i loathed going to each day and (2) everyone around me accuses me of "going off on them"...okay maybe im exaggerating but some of that "normal stuff" does sound pretty apealing doesn't it??? but then again...i really wouldn't be who am i today if i had had a normal life...that's not supposed to be the point though...the point is this...when you look at pain as material it makes all the difference in the world...the pain that is too big to be eased by its use as material would be a pain i couldn't and wouldn't even want to imagine

talked to santos today...stop...scarlett is not cat's name...stop...he seemed like he was telling the truth...stop...i believe him...stop...cat's named after one of the characters we read about this yr...stop...this message is annoying...stop

wow guys for once in my life someone left me speechless... i jus stood there...looking sick and dumb with my mouth hanging wide open as he said..."what are u doing to me?" knock on wood rite cuz this warm and fuzzy feeling can't and probably won't last forever...but anyways best 2 days of my summer...i know it...and i hope i can always remember them no matter how bad things may get...and like im tres thankful to have such good friends naw more like blessed...love the one the only meeh

so the quest to find the cat's name is finally over. thanks pallwitz. she told alisha who then told us. bad idea. and the name is dun...dun...dun....drumroll please.......SCARLETT! how cute rhett and scarlett. just like gone with the wind. how very literary of him.

saturday nite sounds fun. hey Busty, why don't you wear your new shirt for all to see? i miss playing the sims-stupid computers with too little memory. sigh. hopefully i will be getting a new one soon.

Note to all: do NOT make any plans for independance day this year...you will all be spending the day (and night) at my house, and we have LOTS of fun planned for you all (perez knows what i mean). Dan even volunteered to be a dancing lobster (i am lacking a lobster suit however, so if anyone knows where to get one...). How could you miss a dancing lobster? And we'll have drinks (virgin, of course), with lots of umbrellas, limes, and salt. The mother thinks i'm crazy for having a fourth of july luau, but hawaii IS in the US, right?

hello fellow HE members! its me liann giving u guys a few words of wisdom and expressing my oh-so budding creativity throught the use of the lovely sarah santos' blogger thingy. yes.


~fire, a holy sanctuary for the legendary phonix, a luxury spa for the prince of darkness, dive deep into it until thou has lost thyself and having lost thyself than thou shall find thyself again...and after the hot, reeling embers of the fire have devoured what is left of your outter shell the archangel gabriel will cast your flesh down into the depths of tartarus...even as it is written she had her beginning in the great sea where you will enter the fathomless beauty that surrounds your minds eye, a world that is so catatonic, so full of uncertainty and hatred, your spine melts into jello at the mere thought of it~

words of a fallen angel... ~i~

well guys, this is just pathetic...on the first official day of summer, i wake up at 7:30 out of habit and cannot go back to sleep...that will have to change soon. Anyways, i'm not sure that this whole graduation thing has hit me yet...i thought it did, but no. I was driving down woodruff, past SJ, and thought " i'll never need to pull into that parking lot again" and wasn't even sad...i'm so void of all emotion lately...that's so abnormal...prepare for a major breakdown in july.
