Wide Awake!!

So it's about 11:15 and I'm still awake. School starts tomorrow and I really need some sleep!! So I started thinking of things to do....

I tried streching thinking maybe that would help relax my body... WRONG!! I ended up pulling a muscle and hurting myself even more! This is a great way for my to start my dance class tomorrow!! :(


To recover from hurting myself I tried reading. The reading made me a little tired but, I was still restless and couldn't focus on the book to read....


Next, I thought about watching some television...But, as always nothing is on!! Just the boring late night television!! Which makes you want to go to sleep but, everytime I tried closing my eyes I starting thinking about everying... school tomorrow, do I have all my books I need, what am I going to wear, and what time do I have to wake up in the morning...






So then I even resorted to counting sheep... let me tell you IT DOES NOT WORK!! LoL I dunno who the heck thought of the idea but, all it did was make me mad because I would forget what number I was on and then I would start all over.



Then that's when I decided to write on my blog... It's helping me a little I'm starting to get sleepy now so I hope that I may be able to fall right to sleep...

Things to do When there is Nothing to do!!!!

Blink wildly and then close your eyes really tight for an interesting light show
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes)
See a variety of blobs, stars and flashes. Try to make out shapes and see if your subconscious is trying to send you a message



See how long you can hold a note
(Amusement Potential: 4-20 minutes)
Not that much fun, but it sure passes the time. Play with a friend, or try to beat your own personal best. Inhale deeply and then try and make a noise for as long as you can. Earn extra points for making your partner laugh or ending on an amusing note.


Try to not think about penguins
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes)
This is especially hard, because by trying too much, you remember what you were trying to avoid thinking of. If you try too little, you end up thinking about penguins anyway.


Look for ammo to load nerf gun to shoot co-workers with
(Amusement Potential: 5-15 minutes)
You can have fun finding the ammo though you will have even more fun shooting your victims with it. It's all fun and games though until someone gets hurt!


Pretend you're a robot
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Walk down the street with mechanical movements, adding 'zzzzzt' sounds with each motion. Pretending to have a motor broken in, say, your left hand can add at least 30 seconds more entertainment.


Scratch yourself
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Go ahead, scratch yourself now. Even if nothing itches, go ahead. Doesn't that feel pretty good?


Rate passers by
(Amusement Potential: 10-15 minutes)
Secretly award passers by marks out of ten as you go along, offering (unsaid) expert criticism over their clothing, hairstyle and footwear choices.


Repeat the same word over and over until it loses its meaning
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
Pick a random word out of a magazine and say it aloud to yourself until it becomes a meaningless set of noises.


Pinch yourself
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes)
What is pain? Why is it unpleasant? There's nothing physical about it - it's all in your mind. Plus, after pinching yourself for awhile, boredom will seem nice next to being in pain.


Try to swallow your tongue
(Amusement Potential: 1-2 minutes)
There's not much to say about this one. It is possible, but really stupid.


Pretend to be a car
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Make appropriate revving noises in your head as you walk along and add a racing commentary as you pass strangers in the street. Use blinking eyes as indicators for extra authenticity.


Get yourself as nauseated as possible
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Best achieved by looking straight up and spinning around. Try to be so dizzy you can't even stand up. This is also entertaining due to the "makes boredom seem a lot better" effect (see "Hurt Yourself").


Invent a weird twitch
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Adopt a bizarre twitch (e.g. flicking your head irregularly, twitching with eye or busting out sporadic cough noises) and try it out when you go shopping.


Make a low buzzing noise
(Amusement Potential: 15-30 minutes)
Hours of fun in libraries! Keeping a totally straight face and looking nonchalant, make a low pitch humming/buzzing noise and see who reacts.


Make prank phone calls
(Amusement Potential: 20-60 minutes)
Very entertaining, but requires discipline. Remember - vulgarities don't make a call funny, but getting the other person to believe a ridiculous story will. Try seeing if you can get them to make noises to 'test' the line. One to get you started off: Call McDonalds with weird complaints about their food.


THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH ANOTHER PERSON

Stare at the back of someone's head until they turn around
(Amusement Potential: 2-5 minutes)
This works on the "I have the feeling I'm being watched" principle. Conduct an experiment-does this really work?


Pour water in hand, make sneeze noise, throw water on back of person's neck
(Amusement Potential: 5-15 minutes)
Always a good gag. For an even bigger reaction out of the person, act like you're not sorry at all for what they think you did. Comment instead on how big that sneeze was or about how there was a lot of mucus in that one.

What's On and When - The New Fall TV LineUp

After just getting back into the swing of things with all our shows the seasons came to an end. Having the writers strike really sucked and it's almost like we were ripped off at the end. Though after a very long summer with nothing on TV to watch starting in September we have our T.V. line-up back!!



Monday's
Can't wait to see your favorite heros back in action?? They will be back on the TV scene in September at 8pm on NBC.
Tuesday's
What has that doctor House been up to?? Will he start a romance with his crush Cuddy or will he find another love?? You will have to tune into Fox on Tuesday nights at 8pm.
Wednesday's
After not making a comeback after the writers strike we weren't sure if we would be seeing the beloved Dr. Montgomery again. Though she is back in action with an all new season on Private Practice on Wednesday nights at 8pm on ABC.
Thursday's
You can almost hear the tune playing in your head as you think about Meredith, Alex, Izzy, and everyone. They will have an all new jam packed season with all new twists and turns to keep us on the edge of our seat. Tune your TV to ABC on Thursdays at 8pm.

Hopefully this season of shows will not let us down again!!!

Do you....

Do you ever think back to old times and then just start laughing?? Almost everyday I remember something incredibly stupid that I did or something that was really funny. They say that the things that happened in the past make you who you are today. I strongly agree with that because if you were to go back and change something you might not be where you are today. Some of my greatest memories happened with my friends and I would like to share some of them with you.

One thing that I will never forget is when my friends and I would dress up crazy just to go out to dinner. Not for any special occasion but, just to be stupid and have some fun. I must say that we got some really weird looks as we walked into AppleBees for dinner but, all in all we had a great time and this is one night we will never forget!

Think back to high school… remember when you had School Spirit week? That was my favorite week! It was a time where you could wear a ridiculous outfit to school and you were considered weird if you didn’t wear one.

Another time that I will never forget is when I played the part of the reindeer in Grandma Got Ran Over by a Reindeer!! I must say that I did make one fine reindeer and my dance teachers said that they could never fill my spot again. With my long legs leaping across the stage and my animated attitude I made for a pretty funny reindeer.

Oh the joys of self cameras!! I dunno how many times that my friends and I used self timers on our cameras or we just tried to aim the camera just right to get all of us in it. In most of our cases the pictures really are worth a thousand words!
