Final Blog

Hello and welcome back to the final (instructed) blog post of my 2010 class. I would like to hit basis on my more favorite posts including Band, Driving, Friends and their Boyfriends… ECT, ECT. Too bad this is going to be a fantastic final (instructed) blog. I will be complaining about something that I really dislike. Just guess what that is. Here are some hints: it’s part of a holiday… it’s right after a holiday… it rhymes with caned… you guessed it! BAND!!! Yeah, I wrote a blog about it already this year… but this is something different. Let me explain…

So, the Paris High School band is going to Florida for so bowl like Champs or Rose or Orange or what ever it’s called. The point is I kind of don’t want to go after I got the rules. Let me type some up right here => No look down:

1. No excessive laughing. Have you heard some people’s laugh (including mine)? THEY ARE LOUD! My friend and I basically said that we’re bringing duct tape because we both laugh loud.

2. Reading material is suggested. However, if your chaperone does not like what you’re reading, they will confiscate it. Huh? What do they think we’re gonna do, bring a play boy magazine? Half of us (not me) do not even know what reading is! So, I’m bringing a book that has girls in bikinis on the cover. Which leads me to the final funny rule:

3. When swimming, you must wear an oversized t-shirt. Boy’s and girl’s both. This means that they think we are going to get pregnant by showing our shoulders or by wearing a tankini or one piece.  I mean, I can see banning bikinis because some girls in band would be showing a little too much. These are freshmen I’m talking about too. And maybe some seniors.  But that is absolutely it!

If you think these rules are completely stupid, well, too bad you cannot do any thing about it.   I really don’t understand why the band parents do not trust us but… I mean we high school students are very trust… never mind… I just do not get it. Not fair and not cool.

Now, I am not saying that I absolutely hate band. I like it when we play pep band. That is fun to do. I sit there playing awesome songs like I Want You Back by Michal Jackson or Let’s get it started by the black eyed peas, and even the worst of the worst, I want candy… yes some of the songs he makes us play is not cool what so ever. More of the cool songs are California Gurls by Katie Perry, Iron Man, the final Countdown ect. Ect… But that is the only thing I like about band. I mean some of the songs we play are pretty cool like for our last concert (which I had to play as the second saxophone in the first section because the person was sick and there were parts I didn’t even know…) we played Harry Potter and Beauty and the Beast!!! LOVE THEM!!!

Farewell, for this is my last instructed blog. I will probably blog once and a while, just don’t be afraid to comment!

People

Ok, so there are some people in life that are just really, really, annoying. I just want them to leave and never ever come back. But guess what, most of the time they just keep coming back. Sadly. I get depressed when I see someone who annoys me walking toward me because when I pass them, they say or do something that makes me want to punch them in the face. In my mind, there are three types of annoying people. One: People who think that they are better than everyone else; two: people who goof off all the time… also called class clowns; and finally: The Know-It-All’s. They are not my friends.

                First and foremost, the annoying people who think they are better than everyone else. I just do not understand why they think they are better. Please someone explain! I mean yeah they may be a little higher on the poor to rich scale but that defiantly does not mean that they have the right to be mean. Or try to ruin some person’s life just because they are not dressed like they think that that person should dress exactly as them. If they makes any sense to you. I like to call these type of people ‘Plastics” because they pretend to be someone better than everyone else and pretend everyone likes them. Basically, that’s what my partners and I write about in one of our slam poetry poems. In creative writing, we get to write two slam poetry poems for a higher grade of our final. Trust me, I NEED those points. Anyway, we wrote one called ‘Plastic Girls’ which begins with a ‘popular’ girl telling about her life (One of my partners reads this) and ends with me pretending to be a girl who gets pushed to attempting suicide because they made her life horrible by turning everyone against her. Oh, and our other one slams Twilight… It is funny. I may post it if people want me to.

                Anyway, back to what this blog is about. The next annoying people on the list is… the class clowns. Ah, the one’s who can do what ever they want (goofing off wise) and not get in trouble. And trust me, I have tried to do what they do… it does not work. Depressing right? Now, let’s keep moving on to my final group, the Know-It-All’s. Yes, the one people who raise their hands on every single question in every single class. I mean, in my favorite class History I am like that but in any other class, I am definitely not. Actually, I refuse to act like that all the time. I used to but not so much anymore. It gets really, really, really, really, (needing just a few more words…) Annoying!

                Hey, like always, I like to hear from my reader. Anybody annoys you in class, just complain about it here! I will always comment back… I like to hear from people. J J J J J

Partys

Cleaning your room is not an easy task, I know. But the only reason I actually clean my room is if I want something, like, I do not know, a party? Yes, I am having a bon fire with all my friends and the worst part if it would be having to clean and prepare for it. Oh and when everyone leaves, you have to clean. Fun, fun. So this is what my blog is about this week, a party. Oh and the guests too.

            So setting up for a party is one of my least favorite parts of a party. You have to send out invitations, pick who should come (Hint: if you hate them, do not invite them to please someone else!), clean the house, foods… must I have to say more? It is a lot work, which, if you have not caught the drift yet, I really hate. So, in turn, I hardly have any parties. It is actually really annoying trying to plan a party. As mentioned above, there are many steps to plan one… too much work, in my opinion.

            Then comes the party, which comes the party guests. Who, yes, can be REALLY annoying! I know when I go to a party; I can be annoying because no one listens to me so I repeat myself like fifty times until someone hears me. When people come to my house, there is either like twenty five people talking to me at the same time. I can become a major, well, you know. If not, well, just assume something. Party guests also ask for something you do not have. Like, once one person asked me for something, I was not even remotely angry at that. But, when someone asks me for something and then someone else asks again, and then someone else asks again for the same exact same, that is when I get mad. And, then people hate me. It is a very stressful situation which I hate to be in.

            Finally, the clean up. This is the best (cough, cough, worst) part of a party. The guests see the mess and are like “Well, nice to see you Kelsey but I have to go.” Then I turn around and see the major mess, and who has two thumbs and has to clean it up? This girl!!! I am lazy! To keep up my laziness, I absolutely cannot do work! But, according to my mother, they are my guests and I have to clean up after them. But, in my unconsidered opinion, the mother should clean it up if the child doesn’t want to. Gosh, I sure hope that my kids aren’t lazy like me and that they like to clean. That would make my life soooooooooooooooooo easy. But, sadly, I have to clean it myself. It makes me sad.

            I like to hear from you! Any party’s yours turn sour? Comment and I will answer as son as I possible can! I hope this made you laugh some! J

Driving

You know those people on the road; yeah the ones that cut in front of you, cut you off, and my biggest pet driving peeve would have to be not using your turn signal. It is the most annoying thing EVER in my opinion. I have my white slip so when people decide not to use their turn signal in front of me, I am a beginner at this so it could mortally harm me! MORTALLY!!!

I am not one of those people who will advocate against bad driving, or selfish driving skills. But, I will, however, complain about it. Living in a small town means there are not as many selfish drivers like in New York or somewhere, there are, however, little old ladies and little old men driving around half blind to everything.  Sleepy old little town of… well I should not say the name of my town so sorry for all my stalkers. I am kidding; I have no stalkers that I know of. In my small town, there are people who are just stupid when it comes down to driving. I mean it is not even funny how bad some people are! Like I just started driving with an instructor at my school and the person who I am driving with has only driving twice. We have driven with the instructor only twice. The second time we drove, I will admit I was doing pretty well, turning around and going the correct speed, and she runs into a curb. I fear for my life just a little bit.

Another thing I absolutely hate about stupid drivers is tailgaters. Yeah, those one people who are right on the tailgate of my car. I hate that! Like I cannot stop without freaking out that they are going to rear end me! I just want to pull over, get out, walk over to them, and tell them to either go around me, or quit freaking  me out. Actually, what I would really do I cannot say because I would probably either A) get hit by the persons car, B) get into a fight, C) get arrested. None of  them sound like much fun to me so… yeah.

Oh, and another thing I hate: the people who have really nice cars that their parents bought them and then they show them off. They make me soooooooooooooooo angry. They do both of the mentioned above and they think they are so freaking cool that they can almost kill themselves and people around. If you notice, they are the ones to get in the most car accidents because they show off to people. Sweet, sweet karma. I know in my school there are so many people like that; it is not even funny. People with their rich parents who get really nice cars. Not cool. I do not even get a car!

                As usual, I want people to comment their pet peeves about other people’s driving skills… Please comment! I really want to hear from you!

Friends and their Boyfriends

Have you ever had that one friend(s) who, when they get themselves boy friend, they are kind of really clingy? Yes, I have a few and that is what this week’s blog is about. Allow me to begin…

            So basically I have this one friend who (no names please) who just is just a little too clingy to her boyfriend. For example: this one time, a few days ago actually, my friend always sits next to me at lunch. She never sits by her boyfriend, he says that it is ‘bros before h---‘ I think you get the picture. So anyway, she almost sits down and BAM! Her stupid boyfriend had no where to sit, so, he sits next to her twin on the other side of the table. She sees him, looks at me then to him, grabs her lunch box and leaves me. I know it may seem like I am kind of being selfish but this guy does not even like her as much as she likes him. He even lied to her many, many times. He also blew her off a few (three I think) times to hang with friends. Wow, he is such a nice guy, cough and cough NOT.  But, I still love my best buddy and will stand by her through whatever horrible decision she makes.

            Oh and my other friend (still no names… I know it  makes it a bit confusing but hey, I respect people’s privacy J) She is dating this guy that I really, really, really, dislike (I do not use the word hate because that is a very strong word… it equals three reallys before dislike J I make myself laugh) He is not even very nice to me. He says rude and crude things to me and sometimes even her, when they are in a fight. They try to spend every waking moment together and it gets sickening sometimes… But I digress…

            You may think I am totally against all my friends’ boyfriends, but do not get me wrong, I like one or two, actually only one but anyway, I like one of them. It is better than no one. This is actually the twin of the person who I talked about first. Me and her boyfriends like to make fun of each other. You see, our lockers are near each other (his last name starts with a W… my school screwed up… they forgot me and stuck me at the end… joy) and we walk to our lockers look at each other and say “shut up!” at basically the exactly same time. You see, we are in a shut up war… I am winning (I hope). He is really nice and funny but he hardly talks, which angers me because I talk A LOT. She made a fantastic choice and I do not think they had a single fight yet this year.

            Yes, friends and their boyfriends are really, really, annoying… I love them though! Share your experiences please! I’d love to hear from you!

Teachers

There is one thing that I did not write about yet this year... teacher and slash or teachers pets. No offense to any teachers who read this (cough cough, Mr. Ogle J) But teachers can be really annoying. I mean, do not get me wrong, we students are annoying as heck but put yourself in our shoes (which you have before when you were our age) we do not want to be here anymore than teachers do. But we have to put up with each other, somewhat happily. Sometimes.

                Yes, teachers. We students have to learn from teachers as teachers learned from the teachers before them and so on and so on. So teachers do know how we students feel. Somewhat. I know that we students can get really annoying at times, but give us a break! We have the attention span of like a three week old puppy! You could lay off the homework maybe, or be less strict or something to make us students like teachers better. Or not. Whatever, it is the teachers choice. Sadly.

                As we probably all know, where there are teachers, there are teacher’s pets. Yes, those students who are always trying to outdo other students, hogging the attention and basically sucking up to the teachers. It makes me angry. I mean, yes, I was a teacher’s pet up until like the end of sixth grade. Most teachers love me only because, Number one: I am funny, if you have not noticed and Number two: I get straight A’s and Number three: I am just a very likeable person. I was told once that my negativity is funny. It is not so funny to me. Anyway, off topic, students that are just… just… annoying! I sit there and am just like “just shut up, please, just shut up!” or “you sound stupid and you are REALLY annoying so shut up!”

                As I said before in another blog, I will be writing about something I love. Before, it was books, now it will be acting. In about two weeks, my high school will be put on a play about, well, high school. I am acting as Charlotte Wolfe, the librarian. Oh, the play is called Up the Down Staircase. It’s about a just out of college high school teacher putting up with us unruly high school students. I’m the over-protective-of-books librarian who hates students who do not take care of books. I really love acting. It is one thing that does not annoy me. Though I really hate the two hour long practices and when we get to dress rehearsal week, well, let me just put it this way, it will probably be almost four hour practices every night. That is what I really hate about play. My friends and even wrote a song. But, you people probably do not want to hear that.

                Teachers and teacher’s pets are really annoying. If you agree or have any objection about teachers being annoying, you know what to do. If not, leave a comment… so far I got zero comments… Please comment J.

Bad TV Shows

So, there are things in this life that are just horrible. Bad food, sickness, and especially horrible TV shows. You know the ones that are so bad you want to cry or throw a chair through a window, or maybe even get up from the comfortable spot on you’re couch. I know, that is the worst thing to do. Anyway, there are those shows that just… just… oh, what’s the word… oh yes, they just suck. Horribly. Like Jersey Shore, Dr. Phil, um, soap operas… I think that’s just a few of bad TV shows.

            Ah yes, Jersey Shore… Well I have just one thing to say about this show: Vomit. Snookie is not the life of that show and even her own father says she is ridiculous. I do not think there is anything worse than this show. It makes me vomit.

            Dr. Phil may help some people but for me… it is just bad. You see, I am the problem child of my family (just kidding) but when I was little my mother used to sit me in front of the television, making me sit through hours (exaggeration, of course) and quite frankly, scarring me for life. I do not think I will ever be able to watch that show ever again in my life. It was way too scarring.  I mean, I can stand Oprah or Ellen, because they are not depressing or sad. All it is, is people talking about how depressing their life is and how they need help, so they go on TV and get (somewhat) professional help. I mean, why would you want your problems publicized on TV? I just do not understand. Oprah has its good moments, though I would not watch it all the time and it can be depressing too. Ellen is just freaking hilarious all the time, 24/7, every day all day long. I love that show.

            Finally, soap operas. I just see no point in them, they go on and on for like forever, killing off people, then bringing them back to life, and killing them off again. It is so dang confusing!!! My mom watched something like called the Young and the Restless; I think that is what it is called. I watched it like once and I told myself that it was really really stupid and never to watch to again. Then my mom told me that someone on the show died then came back to life and yeah, I was confused. I just do not get the point of these weird shows. I get confused with these types of shows.

            As you have read, there are certain shows that just are horrible to watch. So bad, that you would probably rather hurt yourself than watch. If you have an issue with why this shows are bad and you actually like them, well, number one; you need to see better shows, and number two; you should tell me why they are so go anyway. Comment, chat, and have fun talking about annoying things at this blog. :)
