Reeeally? I thought it was just arlight.. johnny depp was AMAZING as usual and tim burton did the graphics well of course but the thing that ruined it for me was when the mad hatter just started doing that weird dance. like, the whole tone of the movie was serious and then he did that.. like, what? I like the disney animated version better but it was well worth the see

aaaaaaand anyone who's tripping during alice in wonderland is gonna freak- sucks to be them :p

my friend was telling me since the guy who wrote it was on a trip, the actual book makes noo sense whatsoever, she tried to read it and it didn't work. and i was like.... we'll just have to take a trip and read it to make sense.

Yeah there is so many drug references in the book. I did a photography project based on it.

Apparently Lewis Carroll wasnt actually on drugs while he wrote it himself though.

I found this
Q: Was Carroll on drugs when he wrote the Alice books, or are the books about drugs?

A: No. Carroll did not use drugs while writing the story. The larger part of the story was invented when he was on a boat trip with a friend, the real Alice and her sisters. He invented it while they rowed. The drug rumor was first spread in the 1960's by supporters of the then new LSD subculture. The rumor is believed to have originated from the psychiatrists who introduced LSD into our society.

And it's also rumored that Lewis Carroll had a creepy crush on the real Alice.. she was like seven or something. He used to photograph her a lot. Gross but interesting, I thought!

oooh.....i still wish it was LSD though, that makes it cooler

DramaQueen · Friend

haha yeah.
and i read somewhere that apparently there are no drug references and it's just our culture now putting them in ourselves... .oh well i like to think of it as trippy. its more fun. lol.

So, apparently I'm getting a D in math 'cause my teacher doesn't teach us anything. We just get never ending piles of worksheets. This has never happened to me, I'm a nerd so I'm freakin' out a lil. AND I have to start outlining a term paper which is due in a week and I haven't even though about it really! Go me...

Plus side? My mom hasn't killed me for that D yet. And and and! I'm taking my driver's test in a month or so! WOOO

Oh, and I want to go on a picnic. I wish it were summer.

This weekend has been so good.

SAT's on saturday morning but ehh they weren't too too bad (plus my top school doesn't necessarily need 'em) I definitely gotta study for the next time I take them though.

Then I went to Reilly's and we had a where-is-this-going talk.. bleehhh but that also turned out well :) And today my best friend came over who I haven't seen in awhile and we watched the OC, baked brownies, colored, watched my life as liz- mmm so lovely

I'm so excited, too, because today's pi day! The date is 3/14, so at 3:14 pm me and my best frann ate a bite or apple pie hahahha

i'm taking the SATs in may...not looking forward to it. my SAT prep classes are torture.

baaaby raven · Friend

I feel kinda bad. Reilly and I made our relationship official, and Corey (my ex-boyfriend) knows. I haven't talked to him about it but I just said hi today and he looked/sounded PISSED.

I don't know why I feel bad, I don't know why I even care.

It's frustrating.

storii · BFFL

yay for you and reilly! boo for coreyy

baaaby raven · Friend

:) thanks!

omfg caro · Friend

(: yaaay for relationships!

I'm kinda pissed right now:

My dad's moving across the country--he's already there now for a job but he comes back in two weeks to pack up his house and then drive back with his girlfriend and the pets. I wanna see him for those two days. I tried to ask my mom, knowing that she hates me sleeping over there, but she cut me off and told me that I had to spend Easter with someone else before.. and then she was like, "well you'll want to see your dad."

Every time I try to ask about stuff like this she gets all upset and says that we should see some family member. Then I feel guilty either way--no matter which parent I spend the day with. uuughkasfhklsa

I've had the best day, too, besides this sh!t.

I'm not exactly sure how to handle his moving either... like I'm sad but I feel like I shouldn't be since it's a good opportunity for him to make money and I already don't see him often.

Any advice?

heartcorekiss · Friend

It's fine to feel sad, as long as you don't act on it. Like; tell him you don't want him to move. And you said he'd be back for two days, right? If your mom is going to guilt trip you for going, on Easter. Go see him the other day that isn't Easter?

baaaby raven · Friend

mm good idea- i think i work the whole weekend but who knows
thank youuuu

baaaby raven · Friend

Busy. Busy. Busy.

Working a lot. Doing homework. Practicing for my driving test. BORINGGGG

But perhaps it'll pay off? I'm trying to be optimistic about everything.

Dunno if it's working but I'm trying!

DramaQueen · Friend

baaaby raven · Friend

I haven't written in a while, so here's what's new:

I'm coming to terms with my dad's moving

I am feeling better about my driver's test, but I'm still nervous--it's in a couple days!

College **** soon...... blah
