Counselors, Boys, and Haircuts. Continued.

Okay back again!!!
Haha right now school has been out for about eleven minutes! I'm sitting in upper green pod while Addie retakes her French test because I'm going home with her afterwards to work on a project for..(can you guess?)..French. Yes, I know, ick.  Actually, technically we're already done with it but we still have to practice. (okay, okay it's an excuse to hang out! SHHHH!!!) So here's what happened today....
We went to the counselor for the second time today, because we had to reschedule-remember? And guess what? We had to reschdule AGAIN. This is the THIRD TIME that we have been sitting in the counselor's office bored to death for twenty minutes waiting for a counselor that never shows!!!! THANK YOU MRS. SMITH!!! Oh well... she's a good counselor and I love her anyways xD. So tomorrow we're going to see her for lunch...hopefully that works out.
And onto boys!!! :) I saw Joey watching me today after school...hopefully thats a good sign? And hopefully it wasnt just because I was screaming while my friend twirled me around in a big hug. haha no I think it was just because he wanted another hug... ;) Did i mention I gave him a hug yesterday?  hehe yummy!
And sooo... onto haircuts!!! He PROMISED me to never EVER get another haircut like that again...so i am content. :)  Plus, i was talking to a friend from cheer at lunch today and told her my whole dilemma about liking someone with an awful haircut- and yes, i know i sound like a beotch- and she said, "Snatch him while he's ugly so no one else  does! His hair will grow back."  That right there, people, is wisdom!!! Haha so i think that's what i'll do....but now I just have to figure out how to snatch him! Any suggestions? Help!!!!
I can definitly say today was better than yesterday... Yes, my days are very chaotic.  But I'm gonna go ahead and use myself in third person and say... That's life with Ella! :)

Counslers, Boys, and Haircuts

Hello!!!!
So right now I'm sitting in second hour bored out of my mind. I'm taking Microsoft Office Applications...(its a computer class)... and yes i know, i'm a nerd.  It's not like I wanted to take it but..hopefully it will boost my GPA. Anyways, I got out of first hour today! Science-blech :P.  Addie, my really good friend, and I are getting into the habit of booking appointments with our counselor together.  It's a fool proof way to get out of class and Mrs. Smith is really cool. She doesn't care if you come in just to say hi! And i think she can really help me think through and maybe even work out some of my "issues" for lack of a better word. So anyways, me and Addie sat in the counselors office,(actually the waiting room), because Mrs. Smith was tied up with someone else in her office.  So we sat there for awhile and finally just re-scheduled with the nice lady at the desk.  So today I get to skip 1st hour AND 5th hour!!!! whoop whoop! ;) Haha I'm looking forward to talking to Mrs. Smith with Addie today at 1:30.
And onto my problem...Joey. Super cute guy!!! At least last week he was. He came to school today with the most hideous haircut everrrr. It ruined his face! Yes, I know I'm being harsh but... trust me, it's bad.  And he's gotten the same haircut before! Don't you think he would have learned by now? Jeesh. So I really like this kid, but how am I supposed to like him when his cuteness just dissappeared!? Grr. So for his birthday, I'lm getting him new shampoo and conditioner, a brush, and a gift card to a nice hair salon with specific intructions on how to get his hair cut. So please, anyone reading this, PRAY that some sense get's knocked into him and the next time he get's a haircut..he gets a good one! lol so anyways...this weekend i was texting him and- yes i went with the whole "my friend gave me your number but she wouldn't tell me who it was" charade. It works pretty well when you don't want someone to think you're a creeper who gets numbers off of facebook! xD haha so we were talking and you know how guys think that girls that like to game are hot...well i kind of acted like i was all pumped up for the new Nazi Zombies to come out. hahahahahaha. But i dooo kinda like to play video games! I mean..i'm good at monkey ball? lol so now my friend's boyfriend is teaching me how to play so i can beat him x) haha BUT HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PLAY NAZI ZOMBIES WITH HIM IF I'M SO DISTRACTED BY HIS NASTY HAIRCUT????
Okay, now that i got that out.... class is almost over, i'll post later!

<3 Ella <3

ps. Any advice on how to deal with his haircut? I'm thinking i should just go yell at him.... ;)

First Blog!

Okay here it goes...

So right now im a mix of emotions. I kind of want to collapse and just cry for the rest of forever. But then part of me wants to suck it up and be strong and just tell myself it's no big deal.  I don't know if I hate myself for not crying, or if I'm proud of not being too affected. Either way I think about things that have happened every single day...and i try to pray. Yes, I'm a Jesus Lover.  What's the use in living without hope? I guess I'm just grateful. Grateful for what I do have.  Grateful for everything and everyone around me. There are so many people that are so, so, sooo much worse off.  When I'm feeling like my world is collapsing, I look around and realize that in a way, it is so perfect.  I have a nice house, nice things, and people that love me. What else do you need? There are people out there that don't know when their next meal is coming... they've lost everything. So next time you're going to complain about your sucky life...think again.  Those people probably think we're such brats.  We have so much and we take it all for granted.  I guess part of being human is taking things for granted...but still.  You can't use that as an excuse.  I've had friends that complain about how horrible their lives are...and I so desperatly wished I could open their eyes to the fact that...their lives are amazing.  They would grovel and cry when they should have been thanking God for everything they had. Who cares if your house isnt "big enough" or if you don't have "enough stuff"? All that matters is that you have food, a home, and people to love. So I guess my point is....be grateful.  No matter what, always be grateful.  That's what will keep you going.  I've lost family to suicide, My best friend abandoned me, My parent's aren't together and I've had to watch girlfriend after girlfriend come into my dad's life and then leave, I have problems with my stepdad, issues with my mom, some girl ruined my freshman year and stole my guy, and now... well now im grateful.  Ive had so many things happen, I can't even express all of them, or how much they hurt.  But I will always be happy, and no matter how muddled the light is, it will never be gone. I hold onto this one fact: Things will always get bad. But they will always get good again.
