Gimme Shelter

Recently I found out I'm the "rich girl". How much does that suck? I can't believe that! I mean, it's not like I'm living in Beverly Hills, but I'm not exactly living in a box on the side of the street either. I guess what hurts the most is that a girl who I was really good friends with said it. I mean we haven't been very "Rachel-Monica" for awhile now, but it hurts! Do you think I'm over-reacting? Anyway, on to good things. I bought "House of Wax", scared me to death! It's good though. Pretty funny, actually. Right now, I'm thinking about my friends and how my new ones are so different from my old ones. I think if I would've stayed at my old school the rest of last year it wouldn't have been healthy. I'm glad I'm at the Christian Academy, now. Anyway, you know how the end goes:

What I'm listening to: "At the Speed of a Yellow Bullet" by Head Automatica

What I'm Reading: Who's Your Daddy?!

What I'm thinking: Why does life have to be so complicated?

Burn, Baby, Burn!

Okay, I have officially decided I'm a freak! I am into disco (CAPITALIZED?)! I can't believe it. I mean just a few weeks ago I was telling my mom what kind of music I like and she asked if I liked any disco and I thought she was insane! Um, I think I can blame One Tree Hill! Well, I was watching it last night (magic of TiVo!) and they played all these awesome disco songs. Right at this moment, I'm trying to think where I put my Grease dvd!

What I'm listening to: "Dance, Dance" by Fall Out Boy
"I'm two quarters and a heart down And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds These words are all I have so I'll write them So you need them just to get by"

What I'm reading: The Great Gatsby

What I'm thinking: If birds fly south enough for the winter, they'll just get cold again.

Vindicated

Did I mention last time that my mom has cancer? Yeah. I have no idea if it's supposed to be capitalized or not. It's okay I guess. I mean, it's not bad and like eating her away or anything. Okay, so UT game Saturday! Totally excited! Well, that's all I guess.

What I'm listening to: "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" by The Charlie Daniels Band

"Johnny, risin' up your bow and play your fiddle hard,'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards. And if you win you'll get this shiny fiddle made of gold,But if you lose, the Devil gets your soul!"

What I'm reading: 13 Little Blue Envelopes

What I'm thinking: If the goverment wants to help, help the people who are starving not people who want to kill us.

Sway

Right at this second I'm listening to the new Ashlee Simpson CD, pouring over each word of every song. There's one song called "Beautifully Broken". It says "It seems like yesterday my world fell from the sky. It seems like yesterday I didn't know how hard I could cry. It feels like tomorrow I may not get by. But I will try. I will try. Wipe the tears from my eyes." And I'm sitting here thinking "I think we all feel like that." You know? Like, every once in awhile you feel worthless and just want to cry and cry and cry forever until you hear a great song or hear a good joke. And then, just like that you're over it. But in the back of your mind you know that soon you'll be back at the starting line with a box of tissues and "An Affair To Remember" in the DVD player ready to let off all that steam that has built up since the last good cry you had.

My Life!

Okay, I'm new at this. If I'm doing this wrong just tell me! So,uh, as you probably figured out from the name of my blog my name is Olivia. I don't have a death wish so I'm not going to put my last name. Well, here's the Reader's Digest version of my life: my parents got divorced when I was 8. It wasn't very bad, though. I was home-schooled half of last year and this year I'm at a Christian Academy. I divide my time with my mom and dad evenly. Well, I got this idea from a book so here goes:

What I'm listening to: "My Heart" by The Perishers
"It's my heart you're stealing. It's my heart you take. It's my heart you're dealing with. It's my heart you'll break."

What I'm reading: The Second Summer of the Sisterhood (quote came from beginning of chapter 3)
"I've had a perfectly wonderful evening, but this wasn't it."
-Groucho Marx

What I'm thinking: If we can go to war with another country, can we go to war with ourselves?

This is only a test.
