*used to be worried about replying too late, now worried about replying too soon*
Yeah, Junior year was amazing! I've met so many different people and if the workload didn't exist it'd be ideal. I wonder what being a senior will be like. I'm more curious than excited, though I do understand your excitement completely. You see all these people with 'Senioritis' and you wonder... am I going to be like that? All: "GO SENIORS CLASS OF 2013 BABY! FRESHMEN ARE LOSERS HAHA HAVE NICE LIFE FISH." But if I have to change schools senior year I will be that awkward senior that no one knows. I like my school. *hugs drawing of school*
FOURTEEN WEEKS AND COUNTING! You get like ten days less, and parties! That is so cool. The only party I get is prom--and that's only if I can get some misguided senior to invite me. As a group would be nice. Date with a misguided senior not so much. I MUST FIND A MISGUIDED, SOCIALLY ADEPT SENIOR THEN. (or just stay home and unravel my new and fulfilling relationship with chick-flicks)
*takes notes* So... not too cold, size smaller, falling is okay, nice break. Haha :D I love Domino Effect stories. They're always hilarious. WAIT. My brain is somehow telling me to go ice skating. Could it be your discreet pushing me towards it? I seriously want to try it now though.
Monday off was so relaxing! But I'm dreading school right now--are you? Is it just me? Did you enjoy your Ski-less Ski week?
Yes, Chick Flicks and I do not love each other too much. But we're solving some issues. AND FRIENDS ARE THE BEST. (I am typing fast because I have to go but I want to write ALL THE THINGS SO MUCH). As for movie theater style popcorn, it's the only type I will allow near me. I don't like it--but I don't hate it either.
And don't let school crush you and Jacob's amazing siblingship! You two are the bomb, to put it in modern nomenclature. *big word plug*. I can't wait for summer :D Maybe then I'll catch you and Jacob on here again--at the same time! *gasp of disbelief* But seriously though, you and Jacob are the coolest pair of siblings ever. I decided that a while ago.
Okay, they are a great group, and now that you mentioned the country thing I am sort of hesitant. I'm not a big country music person, but since I already like this band I can't go into it with that awful little bias of mine. DIE BIAS.
I will publish so many things and show my writings to so many people :D ~~~~~~~~~~~~ I started writing a story this morning that I love and the words are increasing by the thousands. EXCEPT I SHOULD BE SMART AND SLEEP. But I love writing. Writing > sleep.
TRUST the weathermen?! *skeptical* I guess we could try it out for a while. But mark my words, if they fail me, I will uncover their plot!
I'm looking at my life in perspective here. The other day my mami told me something that shocked me: "You have more years of high school behind of you than ahead of you." Bomb right on my mind. But you're right--looking back is nice. These years have been great (: Four different high schools had its drawbacks, but dear sweettarts the experiences I had. I can definitely say I've changed for the better. But being a senior... it seems so far off still!
I fell into the deep dark hole of procrastination. D: But WE WILL STAY POSITIVE. Oh yay I love prizes :D I can't wait! My last day of school is the first of June (tentative du to bad weather days, but they usually never take Summer Vacation from us anyway) and I really, really can't wait. We will definitely succeed-we have to.
(business phone calls terrify me. I actually have a list of people I enjoy talking on the phone with)
YAY ICE SKATING! I am so glad you had fun~ Saturday I was all... woah. I hope Jessica is having fun and not possibly freezing. You got away with minor injuries--I'm so proud of you. As for skates, I'll have to be careful with choosing them if I ever go then. (did you all fall like a domino-effect? I have an interesting story about something along the lines). Oh, that sounds so relaxing, taking a break from all that school and yuckiness. I need to do that. I congratulating you on your ice-skating efforts. Relaxing days are the best (:
(I might even try out ice-skating sometime)
TODAY IS MY STUDENT HOLIDAY! YAY ME! On Friday I went to the movies, and my friends coerced me into watching a chick flick. I didn't want to :P But we had so much fun. We sat around and laughed and ate popcorn (chick flicks and popcorns> two things I'm not fond of, but my friends made it so much fun). I guess my aversion to chick flicks subsided since the movie was actually heart-wrenching and adorable (yuck. I have feelings) and ughhh. As for popcorn, it's growing on me. XD
1) Never heard of Celtic Thunder
2) Now I have and I am hooked
3) THAT ACCENT. *replays video in a trance*
Okay, okay, okay: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT. I mean, seriously. Your messages make my day that much brighter, and reading what you think about my writing just made my day so perfect. (: It's so wonderful and now I just want to go and write all the things and publish all the novels and weave all the poems. Jessica, you are so cool. Thank you so much~~~~~ (all the squigglies. all of them)
Beware of weathermen bearing gifts O_O (I fail at rewording quotes) My weatherman has settled into the pleasant 50's every day, but like you said, they could both turn on us just as soon as we let our guard down and disappoint us greatly.
(we narrowly avoided destroying the Komm. It owes us many things).
Yes~ Bow and arrows are physics too! (that should be on a protest poster). As for trebuchets, I think I've pretty much made up my mind on doing that :D
I will feel VERY proud of myself by the time this school year ends. I'll be Super-Class-Passer, but hopefully more cool sounding. You're right--I thought I could handle it too. And so do most incoming sophies. BUT THINK ABOUT IT. We're almost done with not just junior year, but with high school. That's kind of mind-blowing. Now we get to stress out about college! YAY!! *confetti withers into nothing*
Never mind. I'll follow your advice: positivity. That is key. We will prevail. Our confetti will never wither into indistinguishable, colorless dust. Why? Because we win at optimism.
I need a vacation countdown. Sadly we can never be sure, because we might have bad-weather days and they'll probably steal from our vacation to make up for them. They enjoy torturing us as well.
(*yay phones!! the best form of communication after smoke signals!!*)
(actually I really enjoy phone-speaking)
How was ice-skating? Did you fall? Are you intact? :O Awaiting your response before I make any decisions about my ice-skating future.
Yes, he is a great actor :D And I love his accent.
*almost as awesome as my Irish friend's accent. except I tried calling him just now and he's not answering and now I am in need of listening to a cool accent*
Thank you for reminding me of John Green! Now my self-control is renewed. I can do this! I could do it with TFioS, I can do it with this!! *puts on confidence hat* Uhh... Now what? *sits to corner and rocks back and forth, clutching confidence hat* must... not... watch. If my reward will be as awesome as last time, I must do this...
Well, I guess we should be celebrating him, but he's being so bipolar. It's less than 50 degrees now and all rainy. yesterday it was 80 and not a cloud in the sky. SUPPOSEDLY we'll have rain all week (I hope so) but if the weatherman denies me this I will be very upset. I need rain. Rain is nice. Freezing hands are not.
(that just proves how amazing we are at conversations. XD it's surprising the Komm can handle our awesomeness.)
Yay! Jessica's mom is back! Life is good (:
My trebuchet has to be to my teacher's weird standards. Launch a golf ball a certain exact height and a certain exact distance or else. Meh. D: It's either that or a catapult-but same specifications. Maybe I'll hire you and Jacob to help me XD
I know O___O School is so ridiculous. Everyone told me Junior year was the hardest, to be careful what classes I took, not to overwork myself, etc. etc. and I nodded but in my head I was thinking: "I can handle this." My mistake. This year it's gotten to the point where I can't stand any of my classes except APUSH (AP US History) which is awesome because my teacher is so much fun and the class is really relaxing even though I was told it was death. But you're right--I can't wait for summer vacation. We can do this, Jessica!! And you enjoy ski week. It's a much needed, relaxing sort of break and it's so great that you get that, in spite of the misleading name :P
And yes, talking to you is fantastic :D Your friends are right. And I think everyone has weird dreams relating to their lives. That's awesome that you're good at helping out.
Ooh! Ice-skating! Have fun. (never been ice skating) Be careful not to fall or whatever XD
I actually started watching because of Dominic Monaghan. I was all: "THAT'S MERRY! *fangirl scream*" But then I got hooked on the show itself and now look at me. I think he does a good job of distancing his role as Charlie from his role as Merry though.
JESSICA THAT LINK MAKES ME CURIOUS. *extreme self-control. EXTREME*
Okay, we must do something about this weatherman! He's turned on me! The weather is actually... NICE today. I'm talking 75 degrees F (21 C if that's your thing) not a cloud in the sky, ridiculous! And it was pouring rain in the morning for like two seconds. I AM NOT JOKING. I timed it. What's the weather like over there?
(XD I just realized we've been talking about the weather this whole time. Small talk gone wild~~)
My Irish friend loves talking, so listening to him should not be a problem XD
Oh, I totally understand. When my mom's not around, I'm surprised my family remembers to breathe. *shakes head* Seriously, though, moms are awesome (:
I have to build a trebuchet for Physics, so I guess I have to go XD But I don't want to stop writing. Just today during APUSH I was thinking of how beautiful words are. It's almost like they have a personality of their own. I wrote an entire page on why I love words :P Which is weird because when I try to explain it to people without the thing I wrote about words being awesome no one understands and they think I'm weird. Which goes to show... I should probably show you that paper lest you think I've finally lost my mind.
(Kathi (my German sister) said I *have* to start showing more people my writing, but I don't even know who or what to show)
Anyway, off to build Trebuchets using the concepts of Projectile motion! Take care!
Okay, I was at a church conference but I am back so crazy school stress time is over for the year (at least that's what my deceitful-looking teachers say). Basically, my replies will not take so long. I know you don't want me to freak out about it, but I love writing this messages and reading yours, so the fact that it'll take me less time makes me happy :D
LOST Characters and my opinions of them (so far):
Jack: OKAY. I don't know why he annoys me so much. Maybe his whole: "I'm a good guy and BOO-HOO I WANT KATE TO LOVE ME" emo act gets on my nerves.
Kate: I dunno. I just don't know what to think about her.
Sawyer: I have a strange love for that guy. He has his ego but it works on him. At least he's not all "conflicting emotions" like Jack. He has a reason for being the way he is. He was developed very well.
Charlie and Hurley- my two favorites :D I mean, I like Hurley a lot more than Charlie now that Charlie's going all psycho and Claire despises him. Also, Hurley is just SO AWESOME.
*sigh* the internet needs to become more efficient!
Okay, Jessica D: I'll try not to freak out about not having a nickname for you.
MY HANDS ARE FREEZING JESSICA. This weatherman must be stopped, no matter what his ultimate purpose is! I CAN HARDLY TYPE. Do you realize how terrible this is?
I read my letters so many times :D I reached 14 pages and I need to send them off now or my friend will get as impatient as I did XD I love letters. They're so beautiful~ I was chatting with her on le Facebook and we discovered that we pretty much never stop writing to each other. (I'll be in Pre-calc: "Dear Roo, I should be learning the properties of sine patterns, but I decided writing is more fun")
(I have a friend with an Irish accent. I NEVER LET HIM STOP TALKING)
Frank's innocent smile is deceiving. Be on your guard, Jessica!
So, on Tuesday I saw your post exactly 8 hours after you posted it, and I thought to myself: "Better reply today, or I won't be able to until Saturday!" So, I replied. And then my internet went kabloom so I refreshed the page and my post was gone and I had to go D: It wasn't too much of a loss, though, because I was very sick and had a ridiculously high fever so the post probably looked like so:
"I hate life. Hahahaha my mailman is so dumb. Ugh my head... Ugh the weather... Ugh Texas... MY EARS, JESSICA."
So... maybe this is for the best?
...
I had to tell you about Desmond. It was essential to our understanding of my place in the show. Right now I'm at the part where Hurley (who I love) is hogging the ranch, Sawyer's going all gun-hog, and Charlie is proceeding to ruin any chance he had with Claire *sigh* Oh, well, such is LOST. I love it. Your message is amazing, by the way. It made my fever-induced day.
Oh, way back when I first joined the Komm, I thought to myself: "Self, it would be cool if I met these people. They're awesome." Then time passed, the old members left, the new members (including you and Jacob! yay~) joined, and I still held on to a faint hope but I realized the internet is kind of erratic. *sigh* Oh, well.
I'll let Zee know about the new law! I think she'll be excited. I know I am. *cheers* Executions are my favorite!!
That sounded weird. I promise I'm not that odd. *fingers crossed*
Jessica D: I missed Alcatraz that day, too! I didn't want to say anything because I was so ashamed and incapable of just calling you 'Jess' like a normal person. Fortunately, I made up for it, and it was so worth it.
Good thing I have my contacts in California, then. Now we can foil the evil weatherman plot that is plaguing the world! Yay~~ All we have to do is figure out exactly what they're trying to accomplish.
JESSICA I GOT MY LETTER ON MONDAY! I walked to the mailbox, and I opened it, and there sitting all nicely and unassumingly were (not one) but two envelopes from her :D It was like... 10 pages front and back. It was the most glorious thing in the world. I'm working on my reply. So far I only have 7 pages, but just the front. The letters far exceeded my expectations. I love letters. So much. Nothing compares to the walk to the mailbox, the wind in your hair, knowing that either you're sending something to someone you care about or receiving a special, unique something that someone spent time on just for you. It's perfect.
This week has been so busy! I have so many major assignments, a birthday, a new volunteer position with people from different Latin American countries (see paragraph below), and yesterday my friends invited me to a Horror Movie and Sushi night. (A strange combination, but we had so much fun). So that was the only relaxing point of my week, but I did not have a single moment to myself other than what little sleep I got.
Oh, about my volunteer position: I work with people from different Spanish Speaking countries, and what struck me is how distinct our accents and speaking styles are. Oh, and one word for me can mean something totally different to them. I love Spanish and its variations and intricacies XD
Oh, thank you so much :D The writing compliment makes me smile every time i read it. I love writing so much, and I've been doing as much as I can of it lately. I hope the length of this message reflects that. Hopefully. (?)
Well, Jessica, again I apologize for the delay and thanks for your awesome message :D
Psh. Exactly. They think we're weird, we know we're awesome, well-rounded individuals. Or whatever the English Class Terminology is. Does that mean we're cultured? You know, we watch Youtubers from across the world then come here to talk to people from other countries and our own, people that we may or may not meet 'irl' but who are still our friends and still give us a deeper understanding of the world around us. That sounded very inspirational. Let me copy it down for my autobiography.
We haven't had an execution in a while! I will let Zee know. Anyone caught using the non-word will immediately be subjected to the wrath of the Handler of the Guillotine. No exceptions, unless we feel like making exceptions. Sounds good. We're making the world a better, more grammatically correct place, one step at a time.
*I can't wait!!*
I don't think I've gotten to Desmond. *googles Desmond*
Oh.
I haven't gotten to Desmond.
...
I've never seen Quantum Leap, though I'm told it's superb. I'll put it on my Things to Consider Possibly Maybe Watching Or At Least Looking Into List. And Doctor Who is actually really addicting, and has one of the best fanbases ever. I have a list of all the Whovian things I will buy for myself when I have money :P Since I enjoy making lists.
Obviously your weatherman is much, much kinder. Though, judging from the fact that you have the exact weather we don't, your weatherman might be in on it, too. Maybe they traded weathers. Think about it--makes sense! They're both evil masterminds bent on destroying our lives, except they actually improved your weather so I don't know how that fits in.
JESSICA YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I NEED MY LETTER. I am worried. The paranoia is kicking in. What if some random person got it? What if they open it and read it and enjoy my friend's art and witticism which I will forever be deprived of?! What if this is never resolved and I have to suffer forever with the knowledge that I could have received an amazing letter but in fact did not?
*breathe in, breathe out*
...
*is also procrastinating*
I know... it's like an endless cycle of stress. I get home at 17:00, way too late to actually do anything. I end up going to bed at 1:00 feeling guilty for not having finished anything and feeling awful for losing potential sleep. I need more time. I need less school. I need less college mail. I need... ugh. XD But like you said, life goes on. We must deal with what we have.
I am going to post this and if it's not long enough I will be sorely disappointed.
I am alone with Youtube stuff :P No matter who I mention at my new school *my old school was different* everyone's like... what. Rhett and who? So I give them the rundown and another cause to think I am extremely strange.
*seals anti-K document with Royal Seal.*
*feels important*
We definitely should be against it. Anyone caught saying the non-word 'k' will immediately be beheaded! admonished strongly. It's official now. We will not tolerate this injustice any further!
I used to only watch Doctor Who, and it's still my obsession. My life is meaningless until the next season starts, etc. But I've gotten into all the J.J. Abrams shows, especially because of LOST, and how amazing he and his shows are. TV is just fabulous. I missed out on a lot.
OH NO! My weatherman is worse than I thought! This cannot continue! I will go stop him, now!
Oh wait, the thunderstorm is over. Never mind. And it was actually... sunny and warm today. I thought that only happened in movies. But still, that weatherman is a criminal! And you know what we do to criminals (hint: it starts with 'p' and it ends with 'unish strongly until they turn back from their life of crime').
Wow, I seriously underestimated my mailman. BUT today I got a less-anticipated letter from another friend, and he barely put it in the mailbox yesterday. WHAT IS THIS MADNESS. I do not understand the intricacies of the United States Postal Service D:
The reading drove me crazy. Too... much...
As for procrastinating, the same thing happens to me -_- I don't have enough time on my hands so some things I have to put off until the last minute, it's called prioritizing, but then I end up regretting it strongly. I always fall into procrastinating, and I berate myself strongly for it. Very strongly.
My friends don't know Rhett and Link either... *sigh* A few know vlogbrothers, one knows WheezyWaiter, and the same one knows Julian Smith, but for some reason Rhett and Link just fly under the radar (I have no clue what that expression means).
He says that in his language, k is a word. I told him I would never like to speak his language. This actually caused a huge argument--the most confrontational yet nonsensical argument I've ever been in XD
I am loving Alcatraz
But if they bring in a bunch of LOST characters that's all I'll be thinking about... "OH! he/she was in LOST! I Should watch LOST more!" And thus will end my run with Alcatraz. I'm watching so much TV now, as opposed to before, when I watched exactly none.
I lack Fancy Pictures, but I do agree that Frank looks extremely innocent. His plan is very elaborate-- look innocent, to seem suspicious, to hide the fact that he's innocent. Hey, can't argue with that logic.
I am pleased to inform you that I am in the middle of the biggest thunderstorm EVER. That's right--ever. I'm not just being dramatic (yes I am). The thunder scared my dog so now she's craving attention again. Oh, did I mention it's pouring rain? It's wonderful! I think you gave me your rain times a million haha! My weatherman appears to be improving. Maybe I misjudged him. Though I seriously doubt it.
My letter still isn't here! It's a conspiracy, I tell you. It's been too long for that letter not to be here. It's like a little kid waiting for Christmas. I want my letter now. :P My life is currently centered around that letter getting here.
I guess the tutoring will fall into place, hopefully. She appears to be a nice girl, and I'm sure she can't be that hard to teach. *crosses fingers*
Oh, I forgot we had a quiz on the English book we're reading in one of my AP classes, so I didn't read at all last night, so the first three classes of my school day were spent reading a grand total of 257 pages of Devil in the White City (which really is a great book, in shorter intervals) and I had such a terrible headache from reading so much at once. All day--and I don't think I can read another word. Until the end of the week, of course, when I get to take my next quiz. (*unenthusiastic*) Oh well. The moral of this story? Don't procrastinate reading homework. (I still got an A.)
And then if I say: "I met them online." they think I'm a creep. Go figure. You never win. Though you guys are awesome, they need to understand that.
One word replies are difficult to deal with. I have a friend who very much enjoys the non-word 'k.' I have pointed out to him the fact that that's not even a word (unless you're a Chemistry nerd like me *dons lab goggles* in which case, potassium to you, too). He ignores me, and thus our conversation ceases.
I am watching Alcatraz! It's really, really good so far. And the guy who's Hurley in LOST comes out. That gives it more awesome points. J. J. Abrams is pretty brilliant, and judging from LOST and Fringe this should end well.
That Frank never stops being suspicious. He's the kind of rock I warned Bonafacio III about. *shakes head* We'll have to keep a close watch, you never know.
Oh, it has not rained, very regrettably. The weatherman wears this cheesy grin every morning, and I can tell he's just taunting me with the fact that no rain will ever come and we're all hoping in vain and whatnot. Also, today was 53 of your Fahrenheit degrees. Apparently that's the hottest it'll get all week. Oh, the cold... we'll see how that goes. (but then again, the accuracy of our weatherman is doubtful, so it might be boiling tomorrow)
People were creeping in San Francisco? That's frightening, Jessica. XD I'm glad you got out of there alive. (also, what kind of masks were these? weird. *shudder*)
As a sort of outlet for all the writing I enjoy doing for other people but for some reason do not do (I'm really enjoying these messages), I write letters to a friend of mine in San Diego, and she sent a letter a week ago but something's wrong with my mailman because my letter is not here and the suspense is causing me extreme anguish. I really can't wait to read it. To quote what I've been saying for the past week: "Hopefully it'll get here tomorrow."
So, the whole 'tutoring Spanish' thing should be fun, except the girl's never taken Spanish and I'm supposed to (and I quote) "prepare her for High School Spanish." Really what is there to prepare? I have no clue what I'm going to do yet, but I should be fine. As long as I don't grow impatient with her. ("HOW DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THESE *WORDS* THAT I AM *SPEAKING*?")
The drawing was definitely appropriate. Everyone's asking: "who is this friend?" And I just say: "Jessica. You don't know her. No, she does not go to this school. YES I AM SURE YOU DO NOT KNOW HER OKAY."
Anyway, I'm glad you actually enjoyed my message, my ramblings can be hard to deal with.
No one can defeat Death Incarnate III XD (oh, you and Kev-man are missed on the chat *weird nostalgia moment*)
I remembered you told me to watch LOST and I said I never would and look at me now XD
Anyway, I'm glad it's raining where you are. We have a 'probability' of rain which means they're getting our hopes up because their one joy in life is to crush us. :P
Frank is awesome! YOU GO, FRANK!
(speaking of your love of math, the same thing happens to me in Physics! childish love wins. I also got a tutoring job--an 8th grader needs Spanish help.)
I hope you find your art pencils! This is a tragic loss indeed. They might be hiding because they're frightened by the sound of how awesome Frank is. I mean, he did kill a dinosaur. (Tell Jacob I'm glad Frank is okay. Oh, and tell him hi)
And there are some crazy people in San Francisco. I hope you enjoyed it though, it's a beautiful city. I've been there a total of once, but I never forgot it.
School is mad, my Pre-calc class is ridiculously fun but it's driving me nuts because my teacher seems to think we know everything (we don't). I hate to crush his illusions, but I do want to learn everything I can. Also, I am addicted to Physics class. End of story.

*used to be worried about replying too late, now worried about replying too soon*
Yeah, Junior year was amazing! I've met so many different people and if the workload didn't exist it'd be ideal. I wonder what being a senior will be like. I'm more curious than excited, though I do understand your excitement completely. You see all these people with 'Senioritis' and you wonder... am I going to be like that? All: "GO SENIORS CLASS OF 2013 BABY! FRESHMEN ARE LOSERS HAHA HAVE NICE LIFE FISH." But if I have to change schools senior year I will be that awkward senior that no one knows. I like my school. *hugs drawing of school*
FOURTEEN WEEKS AND COUNTING! You get like ten days less, and parties! That is so cool. The only party I get is prom--and that's only if I can get some misguided senior to invite me. As a group would be nice. Date with a misguided senior not so much. I MUST FIND A MISGUIDED, SOCIALLY ADEPT SENIOR THEN. (or just stay home and unravel my new and fulfilling relationship with chick-flicks)
*takes notes* So... not too cold, size smaller, falling is okay, nice break. Haha :D I love Domino Effect stories. They're always hilarious. WAIT. My brain is somehow telling me to go ice skating. Could it be your discreet pushing me towards it? I seriously want to try it now though.
Monday off was so relaxing! But I'm dreading school right now--are you? Is it just me? Did you enjoy your Ski-less Ski week?
Yes, Chick Flicks and I do not love each other too much. But we're solving some issues. AND FRIENDS ARE THE BEST. (I am typing fast because I have to go but I want to write ALL THE THINGS SO MUCH). As for movie theater style popcorn, it's the only type I will allow near me. I don't like it--but I don't hate it either.
And don't let school crush you and Jacob's amazing siblingship! You two are the bomb, to put it in modern nomenclature. *big word plug*. I can't wait for summer :D Maybe then I'll catch you and Jacob on here again--at the same time! *gasp of disbelief* But seriously though, you and Jacob are the coolest pair of siblings ever. I decided that a while ago.
Okay, they are a great group, and now that you mentioned the country thing I am sort of hesitant. I'm not a big country music person, but since I already like this band I can't go into it with that awful little bias of mine. DIE BIAS.
I will publish so many things and show my writings to so many people :D ~~~~~~~~~~~~ I started writing a story this morning that I love and the words are increasing by the thousands. EXCEPT I SHOULD BE SMART AND SLEEP. But I love writing. Writing > sleep.
TRUST the weathermen?! *skeptical* I guess we could try it out for a while. But mark my words, if they fail me, I will uncover their plot!
*feels very complimented :D*
I'm looking at my life in perspective here. The other day my mami told me something that shocked me: "You have more years of high school behind of you than ahead of you." Bomb right on my mind. But you're right--looking back is nice. These years have been great (: Four different high schools had its drawbacks, but dear sweettarts the experiences I had. I can definitely say I've changed for the better. But being a senior... it seems so far off still!
I fell into the deep dark hole of procrastination. D: But WE WILL STAY POSITIVE. Oh yay I love prizes :D I can't wait! My last day of school is the first of June (tentative du to bad weather days, but they usually never take Summer Vacation from us anyway) and I really, really can't wait. We will definitely succeed-we have to.
(business phone calls terrify me. I actually have a list of people I enjoy talking on the phone with)
YAY ICE SKATING! I am so glad you had fun~ Saturday I was all... woah. I hope Jessica is having fun and not possibly freezing. You got away with minor injuries--I'm so proud of you. As for skates, I'll have to be careful with choosing them if I ever go then. (did you all fall like a domino-effect? I have an interesting story about something along the lines). Oh, that sounds so relaxing, taking a break from all that school and yuckiness. I need to do that. I congratulating you on your ice-skating efforts. Relaxing days are the best (:
(I might even try out ice-skating sometime)
TODAY IS MY STUDENT HOLIDAY! YAY ME! On Friday I went to the movies, and my friends coerced me into watching a chick flick. I didn't want to :P But we had so much fun. We sat around and laughed and ate popcorn (chick flicks and popcorns> two things I'm not fond of, but my friends made it so much fun). I guess my aversion to chick flicks subsided since the movie was actually heart-wrenching and adorable (yuck. I have feelings) and ughhh. As for popcorn, it's growing on me. XD
1) Never heard of Celtic Thunder
2) Now I have and I am hooked
3) THAT ACCENT. *replays video in a trance*
Okay, okay, okay: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT. I mean, seriously. Your messages make my day that much brighter, and reading what you think about my writing just made my day so perfect. (: It's so wonderful and now I just want to go and write all the things and publish all the novels and weave all the poems. Jessica, you are so cool. Thank you so much~~~~~ (all the squigglies. all of them)
Beware of weathermen bearing gifts O_O (I fail at rewording quotes) My weatherman has settled into the pleasant 50's every day, but like you said, they could both turn on us just as soon as we let our guard down and disappoint us greatly.
(we narrowly avoided destroying the Komm. It owes us many things).
Yes~ Bow and arrows are physics too! (that should be on a protest poster). As for trebuchets, I think I've pretty much made up my mind on doing that :D
Overall, it's been a good day.
I will feel VERY proud of myself by the time this school year ends. I'll be Super-Class-Passer, but hopefully more cool sounding. You're right--I thought I could handle it too. And so do most incoming sophies. BUT THINK ABOUT IT. We're almost done with not just junior year, but with high school. That's kind of mind-blowing. Now we get to stress out about college! YAY!! *confetti withers into nothing*
Never mind. I'll follow your advice: positivity. That is key. We will prevail. Our confetti will never wither into indistinguishable, colorless dust. Why? Because we win at optimism.
I need a vacation countdown. Sadly we can never be sure, because we might have bad-weather days and they'll probably steal from our vacation to make up for them. They enjoy torturing us as well.
(*yay phones!! the best form of communication after smoke signals!!*)
(actually I really enjoy phone-speaking)
How was ice-skating? Did you fall? Are you intact? :O Awaiting your response before I make any decisions about my ice-skating future.
Yes, he is a great actor :D And I love his accent.
*almost as awesome as my Irish friend's accent. except I tried calling him just now and he's not answering and now I am in need of listening to a cool accent*
Thank you for reminding me of John Green! Now my self-control is renewed. I can do this! I could do it with TFioS, I can do it with this!! *puts on confidence hat* Uhh... Now what? *sits to corner and rocks back and forth, clutching confidence hat* must... not... watch. If my reward will be as awesome as last time, I must do this...
Well, I guess we should be celebrating him, but he's being so bipolar. It's less than 50 degrees now and all rainy. yesterday it was 80 and not a cloud in the sky. SUPPOSEDLY we'll have rain all week (I hope so) but if the weatherman denies me this I will be very upset. I need rain. Rain is nice. Freezing hands are not.
(that just proves how amazing we are at conversations. XD it's surprising the Komm can handle our awesomeness.)
Yay! Jessica's mom is back! Life is good (:
My trebuchet has to be to my teacher's weird standards. Launch a golf ball a certain exact height and a certain exact distance or else. Meh. D: It's either that or a catapult-but same specifications. Maybe I'll hire you and Jacob to help me XD
(we're all allowed a little insanity, I guess)
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
Oh no, of course not. We have AWDC umbrellas, of course.
*yay free time!*
I know O___O School is so ridiculous. Everyone told me Junior year was the hardest, to be careful what classes I took, not to overwork myself, etc. etc. and I nodded but in my head I was thinking: "I can handle this." My mistake. This year it's gotten to the point where I can't stand any of my classes except APUSH (AP US History) which is awesome because my teacher is so much fun and the class is really relaxing even though I was told it was death. But you're right--I can't wait for summer vacation. We can do this, Jessica!! And you enjoy ski week. It's a much needed, relaxing sort of break and it's so great that you get that, in spite of the misleading name :P
And yes, talking to you is fantastic :D Your friends are right. And I think everyone has weird dreams relating to their lives. That's awesome that you're good at helping out.
Ooh! Ice-skating! Have fun. (never been ice skating) Be careful not to fall or whatever XD
I actually started watching because of Dominic Monaghan. I was all: "THAT'S MERRY! *fangirl scream*" But then I got hooked on the show itself and now look at me. I think he does a good job of distancing his role as Charlie from his role as Merry though.
JESSICA THAT LINK MAKES ME CURIOUS. *extreme self-control. EXTREME*
Okay, we must do something about this weatherman! He's turned on me! The weather is actually... NICE today. I'm talking 75 degrees F (21 C if that's your thing) not a cloud in the sky, ridiculous! And it was pouring rain in the morning for like two seconds. I AM NOT JOKING. I timed it. What's the weather like over there?
(XD I just realized we've been talking about the weather this whole time. Small talk gone wild~~)
My Irish friend loves talking, so listening to him should not be a problem XD
Oh, I totally understand. When my mom's not around, I'm surprised my family remembers to breathe. *shakes head* Seriously, though, moms are awesome (:
I have to build a trebuchet for Physics, so I guess I have to go XD But I don't want to stop writing. Just today during APUSH I was thinking of how beautiful words are. It's almost like they have a personality of their own. I wrote an entire page on why I love words :P Which is weird because when I try to explain it to people without the thing I wrote about words being awesome no one understands and they think I'm weird. Which goes to show... I should probably show you that paper lest you think I've finally lost my mind.
(Kathi (my German sister) said I *have* to start showing more people my writing, but I don't even know who or what to show)
Anyway, off to build Trebuchets using the concepts of Projectile motion! Take care!
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
Well, we did!
..at least, our featured members selves did. But the rest of us is still alive and kicking.
Hey, I'm fun to play 20 questions with! I may be a little specific, but that's the fun of the game. so what if I'm thinking of a dead maple leaf!
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
Yeah, I know. I was surprised we even made it this long, haha. And it was such an honor; we've gone down in the featured members hall of fame.
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
NOOOOOOOOO we're not featured members anymore!
*rereads Jessica's message a lot of times*
Okay, I was at a church conference but I am back so crazy school stress time is over for the year (at least that's what my deceitful-looking teachers say). Basically, my replies will not take so long. I know you don't want me to freak out about it, but I love writing this messages and reading yours, so the fact that it'll take me less time makes me happy :D
LOST Characters and my opinions of them (so far):
Jack: OKAY. I don't know why he annoys me so much. Maybe his whole: "I'm a good guy and BOO-HOO I WANT KATE TO LOVE ME" emo act gets on my nerves.
Kate: I dunno. I just don't know what to think about her.
Sawyer: I have a strange love for that guy. He has his ego but it works on him. At least he's not all "conflicting emotions" like Jack. He has a reason for being the way he is. He was developed very well.
Charlie and Hurley- my two favorites :D I mean, I like Hurley a lot more than Charlie now that Charlie's going all psycho and Claire despises him. Also, Hurley is just SO AWESOME.
*sigh* the internet needs to become more efficient!
Okay, Jessica D: I'll try not to freak out about not having a nickname for you.
MY HANDS ARE FREEZING JESSICA. This weatherman must be stopped, no matter what his ultimate purpose is! I CAN HARDLY TYPE. Do you realize how terrible this is?
I read my letters so many times :D I reached 14 pages and I need to send them off now or my friend will get as impatient as I did XD I love letters. They're so beautiful~ I was chatting with her on le Facebook and we discovered that we pretty much never stop writing to each other. (I'll be in Pre-calc: "Dear Roo, I should be learning the properties of sine patterns, but I decided writing is more fun")
(I have a friend with an Irish accent. I NEVER LET HIM STOP TALKING)
Frank's innocent smile is deceiving. Be on your guard, Jessica!
Over and out.
Oh wow.
That message was so long. Sorry?
(by the way, the fact that you found your pencils in Jacob's room, where (I think) Frank lives, only proves that it's all Frank's fault)
*regret for taking so long*
So, on Tuesday I saw your post exactly 8 hours after you posted it, and I thought to myself: "Better reply today, or I won't be able to until Saturday!" So, I replied. And then my internet went kabloom so I refreshed the page and my post was gone and I had to go D: It wasn't too much of a loss, though, because I was very sick and had a ridiculously high fever so the post probably looked like so:
"I hate life. Hahahaha my mailman is so dumb. Ugh my head... Ugh the weather... Ugh Texas... MY EARS, JESSICA."
So... maybe this is for the best?
...
I had to tell you about Desmond. It was essential to our understanding of my place in the show. Right now I'm at the part where Hurley (who I love) is hogging the ranch, Sawyer's going all gun-hog, and Charlie is proceeding to ruin any chance he had with Claire *sigh* Oh, well, such is LOST. I love it. Your message is amazing, by the way. It made my fever-induced day.
Oh, way back when I first joined the Komm, I thought to myself: "Self, it would be cool if I met these people. They're awesome." Then time passed, the old members left, the new members (including you and Jacob! yay~) joined, and I still held on to a faint hope but I realized the internet is kind of erratic. *sigh* Oh, well.
I'll let Zee know about the new law! I think she'll be excited. I know I am. *cheers* Executions are my favorite!!
That sounded weird. I promise I'm not that odd. *fingers crossed*
Jessica D: I missed Alcatraz that day, too! I didn't want to say anything because I was so ashamed and incapable of just calling you 'Jess' like a normal person. Fortunately, I made up for it, and it was so worth it.
Good thing I have my contacts in California, then. Now we can foil the evil weatherman plot that is plaguing the world! Yay~~ All we have to do is figure out exactly what they're trying to accomplish.
JESSICA I GOT MY LETTER ON MONDAY! I walked to the mailbox, and I opened it, and there sitting all nicely and unassumingly were (not one) but two envelopes from her :D It was like... 10 pages front and back. It was the most glorious thing in the world. I'm working on my reply. So far I only have 7 pages, but just the front. The letters far exceeded my expectations. I love letters. So much. Nothing compares to the walk to the mailbox, the wind in your hair, knowing that either you're sending something to someone you care about or receiving a special, unique something that someone spent time on just for you. It's perfect.
This week has been so busy! I have so many major assignments, a birthday, a new volunteer position with people from different Latin American countries (see paragraph below), and yesterday my friends invited me to a Horror Movie and Sushi night. (A strange combination, but we had so much fun). So that was the only relaxing point of my week, but I did not have a single moment to myself other than what little sleep I got.
Oh, about my volunteer position: I work with people from different Spanish Speaking countries, and what struck me is how distinct our accents and speaking styles are. Oh, and one word for me can mean something totally different to them. I love Spanish and its variations and intricacies XD
Oh, thank you so much :D The writing compliment makes me smile every time i read it. I love writing so much, and I've been doing as much as I can of it lately. I hope the length of this message reflects that. Hopefully. (?)
Well, Jessica, again I apologize for the delay and thanks for your awesome message :D
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
Yay for THE EYES and my smiley face! May they live long and happy lives.
K-ModKevin (UniSeal) said…
AHHHHHHHHH THE EYES!!!!!
Hahaha. XD See, that's what I'm picturing, of course I freak out!
Never mind, I had gotten to Desmond. Just didn't remember his name. Go figure :P
*makes serious effort to lengthen message*
Psh. Exactly. They think we're weird, we know we're awesome, well-rounded individuals. Or whatever the English Class Terminology is. Does that mean we're cultured? You know, we watch Youtubers from across the world then come here to talk to people from other countries and our own, people that we may or may not meet 'irl' but who are still our friends and still give us a deeper understanding of the world around us. That sounded very inspirational. Let me copy it down for my autobiography.
We haven't had an execution in a while! I will let Zee know. Anyone caught using the non-word will immediately be subjected to the wrath of the Handler of the Guillotine. No exceptions, unless we feel like making exceptions. Sounds good. We're making the world a better, more grammatically correct place, one step at a time.
*I can't wait!!*
I don't think I've gotten to Desmond. *googles Desmond*
Oh.
I haven't gotten to Desmond.
...
I've never seen Quantum Leap, though I'm told it's superb. I'll put it on my Things to Consider Possibly Maybe Watching Or At Least Looking Into List. And Doctor Who is actually really addicting, and has one of the best fanbases ever. I have a list of all the Whovian things I will buy for myself when I have money :P Since I enjoy making lists.
Obviously your weatherman is much, much kinder. Though, judging from the fact that you have the exact weather we don't, your weatherman might be in on it, too. Maybe they traded weathers. Think about it--makes sense! They're both evil masterminds bent on destroying our lives, except they actually improved your weather so I don't know how that fits in.
JESSICA YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I NEED MY LETTER. I am worried. The paranoia is kicking in. What if some random person got it? What if they open it and read it and enjoy my friend's art and witticism which I will forever be deprived of?! What if this is never resolved and I have to suffer forever with the knowledge that I could have received an amazing letter but in fact did not?
*breathe in, breathe out*
...
*is also procrastinating*
I know... it's like an endless cycle of stress. I get home at 17:00, way too late to actually do anything. I end up going to bed at 1:00 feeling guilty for not having finished anything and feeling awful for losing potential sleep. I need more time. I need less school. I need less college mail. I need... ugh. XD But like you said, life goes on. We must deal with what we have.
I am going to post this and if it's not long enough I will be sorely disappointed.
*tries to type without hands spazzing out*
I am alone with Youtube stuff :P No matter who I mention at my new school *my old school was different* everyone's like... what. Rhett and who? So I give them the rundown and another cause to think I am extremely strange.
*seals anti-K document with Royal Seal.*
*feels important*
We definitely should be against it. Anyone caught saying the non-word 'k' will immediately be beheaded! admonished strongly. It's official now. We will not tolerate this injustice any further!
I used to only watch Doctor Who, and it's still my obsession. My life is meaningless until the next season starts, etc. But I've gotten into all the J.J. Abrams shows, especially because of LOST, and how amazing he and his shows are. TV is just fabulous. I missed out on a lot.
OH NO! My weatherman is worse than I thought! This cannot continue! I will go stop him, now!
Oh wait, the thunderstorm is over. Never mind. And it was actually... sunny and warm today. I thought that only happened in movies. But still, that weatherman is a criminal! And you know what we do to criminals (hint: it starts with 'p' and it ends with 'unish strongly until they turn back from their life of crime').
Wow, I seriously underestimated my mailman. BUT today I got a less-anticipated letter from another friend, and he barely put it in the mailbox yesterday. WHAT IS THIS MADNESS. I do not understand the intricacies of the United States Postal Service D:
The reading drove me crazy. Too... much...
As for procrastinating, the same thing happens to me -_- I don't have enough time on my hands so some things I have to put off until the last minute, it's called prioritizing, but then I end up regretting it strongly. I always fall into procrastinating, and I berate myself strongly for it. Very strongly.
Oh, well, c'est la vie...
*jump high fives Jessica for message*
My friends don't know Rhett and Link either... *sigh* A few know vlogbrothers, one knows WheezyWaiter, and the same one knows Julian Smith, but for some reason Rhett and Link just fly under the radar (I have no clue what that expression means).
He says that in his language, k is a word. I told him I would never like to speak his language. This actually caused a huge argument--the most confrontational yet nonsensical argument I've ever been in XD
I am loving Alcatraz
But if they bring in a bunch of LOST characters that's all I'll be thinking about... "OH! he/she was in LOST! I Should watch LOST more!" And thus will end my run with Alcatraz. I'm watching so much TV now, as opposed to before, when I watched exactly none.
I lack Fancy Pictures, but I do agree that Frank looks extremely innocent. His plan is very elaborate-- look innocent, to seem suspicious, to hide the fact that he's innocent. Hey, can't argue with that logic.
I am pleased to inform you that I am in the middle of the biggest thunderstorm EVER. That's right--ever. I'm not just being dramatic (yes I am). The thunder scared my dog so now she's craving attention again. Oh, did I mention it's pouring rain? It's wonderful! I think you gave me your rain times a million haha! My weatherman appears to be improving. Maybe I misjudged him. Though I seriously doubt it.
My letter still isn't here! It's a conspiracy, I tell you. It's been too long for that letter not to be here. It's like a little kid waiting for Christmas. I want my letter now. :P My life is currently centered around that letter getting here.
I guess the tutoring will fall into place, hopefully. She appears to be a nice girl, and I'm sure she can't be that hard to teach. *crosses fingers*
Oh, I forgot we had a quiz on the English book we're reading in one of my AP classes, so I didn't read at all last night, so the first three classes of my school day were spent reading a grand total of 257 pages of Devil in the White City (which really is a great book, in shorter intervals) and I had such a terrible headache from reading so much at once. All day--and I don't think I can read another word. Until the end of the week, of course, when I get to take my next quiz. (*unenthusiastic*) Oh well. The moral of this story? Don't procrastinate reading homework. (I still got an A.)
*long messages win*
And then if I say: "I met them online." they think I'm a creep. Go figure. You never win. Though you guys are awesome, they need to understand that.
One word replies are difficult to deal with. I have a friend who very much enjoys the non-word 'k.' I have pointed out to him the fact that that's not even a word (unless you're a Chemistry nerd like me *dons lab goggles* in which case, potassium to you, too). He ignores me, and thus our conversation ceases.
I am watching Alcatraz! It's really, really good so far. And the guy who's Hurley in LOST comes out. That gives it more awesome points. J. J. Abrams is pretty brilliant, and judging from LOST and Fringe this should end well.
That Frank never stops being suspicious. He's the kind of rock I warned Bonafacio III about. *shakes head* We'll have to keep a close watch, you never know.
Oh, it has not rained, very regrettably. The weatherman wears this cheesy grin every morning, and I can tell he's just taunting me with the fact that no rain will ever come and we're all hoping in vain and whatnot. Also, today was 53 of your Fahrenheit degrees. Apparently that's the hottest it'll get all week. Oh, the cold... we'll see how that goes. (but then again, the accuracy of our weatherman is doubtful, so it might be boiling tomorrow)
People were creeping in San Francisco? That's frightening, Jessica. XD I'm glad you got out of there alive. (also, what kind of masks were these? weird. *shudder*)
As a sort of outlet for all the writing I enjoy doing for other people but for some reason do not do (I'm really enjoying these messages), I write letters to a friend of mine in San Diego, and she sent a letter a week ago but something's wrong with my mailman because my letter is not here and the suspense is causing me extreme anguish. I really can't wait to read it. To quote what I've been saying for the past week: "Hopefully it'll get here tomorrow."
So, the whole 'tutoring Spanish' thing should be fun, except the girl's never taken Spanish and I'm supposed to (and I quote) "prepare her for High School Spanish." Really what is there to prepare? I have no clue what I'm going to do yet, but I should be fine. As long as I don't grow impatient with her. ("HOW DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THESE *WORDS* THAT I AM *SPEAKING*?")
Wish me luck. XD
Hope all is well!
(self conscious about how long this is)
The drawing was definitely appropriate. Everyone's asking: "who is this friend?" And I just say: "Jessica. You don't know her. No, she does not go to this school. YES I AM SURE YOU DO NOT KNOW HER OKAY."
Anyway, I'm glad you actually enjoyed my message, my ramblings can be hard to deal with.
No one can defeat Death Incarnate III XD (oh, you and Kev-man are missed on the chat *weird nostalgia moment*)
I remembered you told me to watch LOST and I said I never would and look at me now XD
Anyway, I'm glad it's raining where you are. We have a 'probability' of rain which means they're getting our hopes up because their one joy in life is to crush us. :P
Frank is awesome! YOU GO, FRANK!
(speaking of your love of math, the same thing happens to me in Physics! childish love wins. I also got a tutoring job--an 8th grader needs Spanish help.)
I hope you find your art pencils! This is a tragic loss indeed. They might be hiding because they're frightened by the sound of how awesome Frank is. I mean, he did kill a dinosaur. (Tell Jacob I'm glad Frank is okay. Oh, and tell him hi)
And there are some crazy people in San Francisco. I hope you enjoyed it though, it's a beautiful city. I've been there a total of once, but I never forgot it.
School is mad, my Pre-calc class is ridiculously fun but it's driving me nuts because my teacher seems to think we know everything (we don't). I hate to crush his illusions, but I do want to learn everything I can. Also, I am addicted to Physics class. End of story.
*needs to stop writing*
