I’m Not Bitter, Just Cynical











{April 22, 2009}   Oh, my life is nothing

Seriously, it’s so boring.

My friend’s crush talks to me. A lot. And she won’t leave me alone about it.

It’s nothing. Really.



{April 20, 2009}   AHAHA

Well, I’ve been gone. For a while.

A good long while.

Yes, I’ve been quite distracted lately…well for a good long while.

Anyway, I have a problem.

I may talk about it ater.

Maybe tonight.



{August 9, 2008}   Uniforms…

Well, it’s time to tell you about the tennis team uniforms. One of the good things about tennis is you can wear really cute outfits while playing. I am a serious tennis player, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like cute tennis clothes.

The first part of our uniforms is the team tee. It’s designed by the seniors every year. This year it’s going to be tie-dye, but that’s all I know about it.

The second part is a skirt. You can get either a fitted straight white skirt or a black skirt with a flare at the end. I’m getting the black. :)

The third part is the two pleated skirts and a sleeveless polo. The skirts are pleated all around except for the front part, which is straight. One is plain and one is plaid. The polo has a small tennis symbol near the collar.

The last part is the dress. It is all white except for two parts on either side. They’re pretty cute. :D

Unfortunately, my mom has to fit the polo and dress for me because they’re two big. And yes, I have the smalls, but they don’t have any extra smalls.

{August 7, 2008}   :(

I’m so sad. One of my friends got cut from the tennis team. There are now 8 juniors, 2 sophomores, and 2 freshmen. The freshmen are me and my other friend.

But it makes me very mad because only three people (all freshman) were cut. Really,  the team could have held those three people. All it’s doing is discouraging freshmen from coming out for the team! >:(

And now I’m in a very strange spot, where I’m going to be playing anywhere from number 3 singles to number 1 or 2 doubles, though we may be accused of stacking if I were in number 2 doubles. Coach says she wants to find the best doubles teams and who does well at singles, etc.

Then there’s this Meet The Team Night that we have to go to, and even Coach doesn’t really know what it is. She says we’ll introduce ourselves and then the other fall teams will introduce themsleves and there may be some food. I like food.

I have a little over a week before school. :/

{August 5, 2008}   Strawberries! :D

I’ve decided I want to smell like strawberries this year.

I have strawberry scented shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. I’m afraid the body wash won’t last long, though. I also want strawberry scented lotion. I like smelling fruity! XD

Also, while at a tennis tournament (won, lost, lost), we went to Target and I got a cute shirt and a little magnetic picture frame for my locker. I also got a locker mirror/bin that’s really cool. I hope to go to Walgreen’s because I saw a pencil pouch in their ad that was pretty cute.

It looks like I’m going to be number 3 singles on my tennis team. Huzzah!

Also, my older sister’s best guy friend told us a funny story:

Him: Who are those gilrs?
Me: I don’t think I know them. Why?
Him: Well, one of the was like “Owww!” and another was like “Shut up,” and the first one was like “What? He’s hot!”
My sister: You’re too conceited.

I’ve decided that I’m too happy to be depressed.



{August 3, 2008}   I THINK I’M DEPRESSED :/

So, it’s coming close for school to start. I’m going to be a high school freshman.

I’ve been going to a private school for my whole life, so I don’t have many friends.

I’m afraid I’m going to have trouble making friends.

Yeah, I’ve heard “Be yourself”, “look and be friendly”, make the first move”.

It’s hard.

That’s what she said. Sorry, too much of The Office, which by the way is an awesome show.

Anyway, I also have my eyes on some very pretty school supplies. How should I decorate my locker?



{June 16, 2008}   I’m so tired…

…I fell asleep at 8 last night. I’ve been away at a team tennis thing and we went to sleep around midnight every night and woke up at 6 every morning for four days. There were only three of us girls, so we each had to play a doubles match (girls or mixed) and a singles match. The other girls were very good, and I (being the mediocre player I am) only won 1 of 5 singles matches. Our poor number one girl never won a match. Neither did one of our five guys. Our team lost every match except one. This was the match in which I won. We ended up winning that team match 5-4. Mine was actually the deciding match! One of the guys on our team (who happened to be extremely annoying and stupid) was standing behind the fence in back of my court cheering for me, and he kept yelling at me when I messed up. He also won his singles match. (He was really funny when he played doubles because he kept yelling at his partner whenever he made a mistake.)

Then we lost one of our girls. We were all sitting in the van. She was upset because she had just lost a close three set match and started hyperventilating. We were waiting for her and our coach because he said they would be right there. Then an EMS pulled up! We were all freaking out as they pulled down a stretcher and loaded the girl into it. We were all laughing because everyone was being so stupid and we were all shocked, but we knew our coach was going to be really mad if he found us laughing. The guy sitting in the front seat was scared that our coach would eat him, which made us laugh more. We could all see him walking to the car and we were still laughing. Two seconds later, he opens the door.

Dead silence.

Then we all erupt with questions about the girl and what’s going on and are we going to the hospital and when are we going to eat. (No joke.) So we went to the hospital, and there we got yelled at by a nurse for being too loud. Then one of the guy’s mom (who was in the area) came to get us and drove us back to the hotel where we ordered a pizza. Then the other girl and I watched Unwrapped for a while and went to bed. The next day (which was yesterday) we had to default a singles match because the girl in the hospital had heat exhaustion and went home. We almost had to default mixed doubles but the other team let us play the number 1 girl again because both coaches wanted everyone to get a chance to play. And I got sunburned even though I put sun screen on religiously every two hours. It’s not fun, and I have the worst sock tan ever. My feet are bright white and my legs are really tan. It looks so ridiculous it’s not even funny. Plus, I am tired of Subway because we went there about 5 times.

And that was what I did from Thursday to Sunday. Fun, fun, fun.



{June 11, 2008}   Awkward Topic #1

Bra shopping!

I am just about the pickiest person when it comes to these things. They can’t be too noticeable under a T-shirt, and pretty little designs are a nix, unless I really like them. I don’t like underwire or front clasps, and the straps have got to tighten a lot. Nude bras must match my skin tone almost exactly, and white bras should not easily show sweat, even though I don’t normally sweat much. Sport bras must be comfortable, and the straps should not come up on the neck like some do.

Then there’s the problem of finding my size. Not good. I am so small! You don’t even want to know my size: 30AA. Yeah. And I don’t even think that’s right, because the band always seems big. Ick.

So, I’m still struggling to find the right bra.
