Ha. Look. Post from my phone so I don't break my daily blog thingy. The only thing I hate, though, is that there's no title. Soo upsetting. And I'm tired.

Saturdayness.

On Saturday, I went to a Tartan Festival and had myself heaps of fun! I got to wear m kilt ALL day, and I got to perform in it. It was fantastic. I love performing, and I was very exciting to dance because it was my first time performing Scottish Highland EVER! I have to say, though, the stage I was on was SO janky! It was probably one of the scariest things I've ever done in my life, dancing on that stage. It was crazy. The entire festival took place on rolling hills, and the stage was set up on those hills. The stage pretty much looked like this: \ Yeah. And I had to dance on that. I was doing the Sword, and I had to duct tape my swords to the stage. I know. Janky. Also, the stage was completely connected. They were table type things pushed up next to each other. They were made of solid aluminum, and their legs were anorexic. I caught my toe on one of the table edges, but I didn't fall or anything.
I danced a total for 4 times: twice at noon, and twice in the afternoon. After I danced, my teacher and I taught a workshop on how to do our dances. During our last workshop, I landed on my ankle, but I kept going, since I land on my ankle a lot, and I'm not very heavy. But when I went to bed, I couldn't sleep because I kept rubbing my ankle. I guess I was worse than I thought. I was limping all of yesterday, and I was icing my ankle this morning during testing, and I am still limping. I'll probably ice it again tomorrow.
But I still had tons and tons of fun at the festival. They had really good lemonage. ^_^

Totally forgot.

So, I guess I was supposed to tell you all about my day yesterday, but I was so wiped out that I slept in, and this day has just gone by so quickly. Sometimes I feel like there aren't enough hours in a day, at least on the weekends, which is so not fair. Anyhoo, this post will be short. I'm going to try and squeeze in another Bruce Willis movie into my Bruce Will Movie Marathon.
I'll tell you all about my day yesterday tomorrow. ^_^ That made total sense.

I killed a whole lot of brain cells.

I am so exhausted. Today was a very long day. I do have lots to tell you, because I had fun, but it's too late. I will tell you, though, and I'll tell you again tomorrow, that I killed a lot of brain cells. I thought I was going to pass out today. My vest was so tight, it was like wearing a corset. I couldn't get enough oxygen into my lungs, so barely any got to my brain. It was especially bad because I was dancing, and you need to breathe to dance. Anyhoo, I'll tell you all about tomorrow. I just didn't want to break my daily blog thing.

I'm in Minden!

You probably don't know where that it. It's a poe dunk, janky little town. But it's cool. I'll just be here overnight, I'll perform, and I'll get to go home to my own little janky town. This will be a short blog post. It's pretty late, and I need to get some shut eye. Dance tomorrow!
Pizza tonight. Sweet.

(Stuck) In My Head!

"In My Head" by Jason DeRulo is stuck in my head, but by the original version. The "In My Head" Cover by Michael Henry and Justin Robinett is stuck in my head. Yep. I definitely can't get it out yet. I honestly don't mind. They did a great job. Jennywayz, I just want to share with the world that I will live me dream. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I know I'm going to, and that's good enough for now. I'll have to suck it up, overcome obstacles, make amends, break ties, stay strong, and so on, but I don't care. I'll do whatever it takes.

I'm going to make my dreams come true.

I won't let anybody tell me otherwise.

It's not even funny how talented these guys are.

There are these YouTubers:

Michael Henry and Justin Robinett. This is their YouTube channel.

They blow me away every, single time they put something new up. It's friggin' insane! They are SO talented, it's barely even fair! They turn songs into something you would never expect them to be, and they are always more amazing than the originals. These guys need to be signed.

Not only is it fun to watch their videos for the musical talent, but also because they always have somebody in the background. It's hysterical. Here is their newest upload.



Please watch all of their videos. Not just for the music, but it's hilarious to watch the people. They play the Wii a lot. You'll see. ^_^ I've talked about them in one of my videos before, and like I told you then, subscribe to them. They deserve to be known all over this planet. Talent beyond our planet. Not a perfect rhyme, but it's good enough for moi!

I got it!

My Thera-Band that is. My feet will be strong again, and my arches and instep will be beautiful! Yesss!!! Ballet feet, I'm coming back to you!

This is going to be a pretty short post because I don't feel like typing up a long one.

It was very interesting. Everybody, including myself, felt like today was Wednesday instead of Tuesday. Sure, it's cool that we all felt the same thing, but on the other hand, it was very disheartening because we aren't halfway through the week yet. It's still the beginning. Aww, shucks. Whatever. I have this event thing to go to tomorrow, but I have to go to dance right afterwards, so I'll just wear my unitard under my school uniform and under the clothes I'll wear to the event, so that I can just rip them off in dance class, and not have to properly change. I'm lazy like that. Ha.

Something I won't buy when I grow up.

Before I tell you what I won't buy when I grow up, I'll begin by reminding you to help the Uncultured Project and Save the Children. You can find out how my reading my previous blog posts. Thanks! ^_^

So, I've been thinking about this a lot lately, since it has affected me so much, and I realized that I don't think I'm going to buy a dinner table. Weird, right? At least, I won't buy one until I find someone I'll enjoy sitting with at a dinner table and enjoying a meal/good talk. In my short 16 years of life, the dinner table has been a war zone. Sometimes, it can be epically violent, in the verbal way, while other times, it's no man's land; a barren wasteland, in which nothing is said, but the atmosphere is so tense, that the mortars will fly at the drop of a pin. The dinner table, in most cases, is that of peace. You can sit down and enjoy a meal, talk pleasantly with the people you love, and unwind after a long day at work or school. It has never been that way for me. It was always a place to wind up, stay tight and alert, and say nothing at all to avoid saying the wrong thing. When things are tense and awkward, I opt to say in my room and not leave for any reason at all, leading to me becoming ravenously hungry and having an extremly full bladder. I'll leave only if the others are in their room or outside. Then, I can take a piss and inhale whatever I find in the fridge. I choose to do this because being in my room is comfortable. I live in a house, but I don't really feel like I have a home, except for my space in my room.

It is one of my dreams to have my own library when I grow up, even if it's just a small one, along with a kickass TV and computer area, and sound system. Reading books, watching movies, and being on my computer are my escapes, along with music and running. As for running, I can just run around the neighborhood. No need to waste space with at treadmill. Those things are so boring, anyhow. I can't stand to be on one.

I will make it clear now that my parents are NOT abusive. My family is just dysfunctional. Just not in the funny or cool way. Plus, I'm still a pretty happy person. I'm not lying about that. But like every human being, I have problems to deal with. My family is mine. I love my mom, but I'm out of high school pretty soon, and I won't be with her anymore. I love my brother. We're the black sheep. We don't have the same last name as the rest of our family. We really ought to be twins. We're in the same grade, had the same classes for most of our life, and we both feel the same way about our family life. He's buying a dinner table, though. I hope that when my brother and I leave for college, the problems will go away. Not completely, since that isn't possible, but at least the problems concerning us, which is a large part. I hope for this, because I have 2 little sisters, whom I don't want growing up feeling the same way I do. But they're my half-sisters, and they'll probably be alright. They most likely won't feel like outcasts. They have a nuclear family.

It's okay, though (not really). I'll be out of here soon. I just gotta be strong. This isn't something people should deal with, but I won't have to deal with it for much longer. Just a little over a year. Once again, I'd like to point out that my parents are not abusive. Please don't try and save my from my "horrible" life. It's not that bad. Just teen angst mixed with moody parents. Like, PMDD moody from the biggest vagina in the world. I just hope one day I'll find the someone who I'll be able to buy a dinner table with. ^_^ As for what I'll do with the dining area ... dance space? Chill zone? Bean bag chairs? Who knows. Something I do know: Definitely living in a house or flat that has countertops! ^_^

Be.

Oh, Universe! Why won't you grant my wishes?

It seems that the Universe has decided against granting my wish for this weekend to go by slowly. Saturday has come and gone. It's quite upsetting. I only have tomorrow left, and then it's back to school. Yuck. Time didn't seem so relative today. Time flies when you're having fun, right? And it goes by UBER slowly when you're not? Well, I've been bored and slightly sulky all day, dreading the fact that I have to go to school soon, and yet, time when by like that drug dealer running down the street from the cops. Cool beans? No. I think not.

I have to do laundry tomorrow, which I don't mind, but it's just the fact that amidst the dirty clothes, lies my uniform. I have to say, it's pretty janky. I don't like doing the whole, uniformy thing. The only time I've ever worn a uniform was when I went to Apple International School in Dubai. But those uniforms were legit, so it wasn't too bad. The uniforms here are polos and khakis. Whatever. I don't like it when other people complain, so I'm just going to stop.

I don't have very much to blog about today, nothing entirely profound, at least. So I'll just go on about helping UP and Save the Children. Well, I won't really go on. I think you'll get tired of that, so I'll just tell you to read my previous post, which will lead you to the post before that post. Thanks for helping out, guys. You're doing a great job. We all are. Keep it up.

My multi-coloured, polka dot headband rocks your face!

So. Yeah.

I feel that it's important we still help Shawn Ahmed, the founder of the Uncultured Project, and Save the Children, so please read my previous blog post. The only below this one. Yep. The April Fool's blog. We really need to exercise the power of the online community. A huge portion of the world population is online, and I think that we can use our massive force to serve all of mankind in a compassionate, strong, caring, and kind way. I believe there are a few ways that mankind, along any other beings on earth, can be destroyed, but I think our ultimate downfall will be technologically. It would be self-destructive. Sooooo, let's try and use the technology we have right now for the good of the world. We has humans have accomplished a lot. There's no denying that. But there are many things that we haven't done yet, or haven't done enough. In my opinion, one of those things is caring about one another. I'm not talking about outside forces that affect our lives. I'm talking about us, and our impact on ourselves, on others, on our entire race. It's pretty erroneous to make assumptions and lay down "truths" for everyone to follow, but I think this fits pretty well:

Life in the future can't possibly be good if we don't start helping each other NOW.

I know people love having a pessimistic view on life, and say that it doesn't matter if we do anything now, we won't be able to reap the rewards later. Honestly, that is so juvenile, and I believe you should be ashamed for thinking such a thing. But who am I to tell you what to think? Doing something just to reap the rewards is completely selfish. Helping others is priceless. That viewpoint in the first line of this paragraph is an illustration of the cycle of destruction. Things are bad now, we won't help because we'll get nothing to show for it, things get worse. When things are worse, we won't help because we'll get nothing to show for it, things get even worse. Things are even worse, we won't help because we'll get nothing to show for it, things get even more worse. This will continue on and on until, finally, our beautiful planet is gone. Life will be meaningless, probably because there are no people to live life.

We can do something about it. There are great people out there, and wonderful organizations and charities, who can see the bigger picture, and realize that change starts little by little, or things will fall apart.

Change comes from within, and when others see genuine change, it will spread to them, and so on. Peace comes from within. You can't preach about world peace to others, when you yourself are intolerant of love between two of the same sex, different races, or different religions. Intolerance is ugly. Eww. Just get over yourself and start loving your fellow human beings. Oh...you can't say that? Just get over yourself? Even if you're trying to be nice? Okay. Whatevs. I'm not asking you to change who you are. No, be yourself and help others in your own way. If you're comfortable in your own skin, you may influence others to feel the same way. When they see somebody be happy and successful by being who they are, and impacting others in their own way, others will want to do the same. No impact is a small impact. That impact is big to somebody. Whoa, starting to go off into a tangent. Back on track now. I'm not asking to change who you are. I'm hoping that you will change how you see the picture. Your help makes a difference, and once you realize that, things will get better. When everyone see that their "little gestures" are actually making a difference, they'll want to do it more often, and others will want to join in. Eventually, the world we want to live in, that better place, will be a reality.
But that is only if we get rid of our intolerance. That's what it all comes down to. Intolerance. And that is something that outside forces can't help you with. You'll have to shed that hatred on your own. I just hope you realize that hatred is not a good thing to live by.

You can do your part by reading my previous blog post. I've even written down steps. ^_^

Be.

Post Script: I've probably got typos swimming through that post and breeding with each other. I just don't feel like going through and fixing them. I'm only human, right? You'll get the big picture, anyhoo.

April Fool's! But not about UP and Save the Children

I don't actually have a joke or anything. Sorry. I do know some people who have make great April Fool's pranks. But...I don't really feel like telling you about them. I'm way too lazy. Jennyways, I'm bored and I don't have much to say.

Actually, I can tell you to click on this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAZyCD68qrM&feature=youtu.be 

Shawn Ahmed, you know, that guy who started UP (Uncultured Project), is sitting in a boardroom with Save the Children and he needs your help. If you are reading this blog, obviously, you're a computer person.You don't necessarily have to be COMPLETELY computer-savvy, but you do use the computer regularly. Well, this is a great cause, and all you have to do is show the power of the online community. Click on the link, watch the video, then like it, favorite it, comment on it, and most importantly, spread the word. Show the video to others, so that they may do the same: Watch, like, favorite, comment, and spread. The online community is extremely powerful, and we can tap into that power and do some good.

There are wonderful things about this world, but there's stuff that needs to be fixed, and YOU, ME, US, WE CAN HELP, and that is so amazing. We are all people, with different personalities, interests, likes, and dislikes. But we are all on this planet together, planet Earth: our home. You know, the 3rd planet away from our star, the Sun, which is located in the Milky Way Galaxy. Yeah, that one near the Andromeda Galaxy. Anyhoo, we're all on here together, and we can join forces to change the world, a little bit at a time. I'm not asking you to donate any money, fly to a remote place in the world to fight malaria, or even put in any hard, physical labor. All you have to do is lift your finger (or fingers, depending on what kind of a typist you are).

Time is probably the most precious and most desired thing EVER.  Many people waste time, but there are people who spend their time how they want, have fun, and others like to tell them that they are wasting time. WELL, GUESS WHAT?!?!?!

Time enjoyed wasting is NOT wasted time.


And let me tell you, when you spend your time helping someone, you enjoy yourself and you enjoy life in general. But I'm speaking as if I'm asking you to give up hours of your life, and I'm not.

1. The video ( Thisa one-a. Righta here-a. Clicky clicky. ) is only 1 minute and 46 seconds long.
2. It takes about one second to like the video, depending on how fast you move.
3. Favoriting the video takes about 2 seconds, once again, depending on how fast you move.
4. The time for commenting varies, depending on how fast you type, your writing style (prose, spelling, whatnot), and if you actually choose to comment. IN THIS CASE, YOU SHOULD COMMENT. It shouldn't take more than 2-3 minutes.
5. SHARING. Sharing is caring. I'm speaking literally here. There are various buttons to click on to share the video on different sites. Sharing the video on one site takes about 5-15 seconds, once again, depending on how fast you move. If share the video on more than one site, then use this formula to figure out how much time it took to share:

(Number of seconds it took to share the video)(Number of sites you shared it on)

For those of you who don't know this, values in between various sets of parentheses are multiplied together.
e.g. (5)(4) = 20
6. This step is completely optional, but is highly recommended. You know how I made you multiply in the 5th step? Well, you can multiply how many times you like, favorite, and comment. You really are helping a good cause.

One life. One world. One race. The human race. Together, we can make it:

Won life. Won world. Won race.


It's as simple as clicking a button.

Thanks everyone. You can also share this blog post with others, if you want. Remember .... ^_^

Be.
