Wednesday: Wings

Okay, so.

 So. 

 I have absolutely NO idea what I'm talking about today, so... I might just wing it. Yep. Totally winging it.

 Well, yesterday's prophecy didn't come true. I woke up at 6:45, before falling asleep till 7:45. A little off the mark, but... the weather doesn't always obey the weatherman, right?

 Oh, I know! I'm sitting in my room right now, and I have a lot of stuff in my room. How about I stand up, close my eyes, spin around, walk towards whatever's in front of me, and blog about that! Good plan, Alice, good plan!

 Here it goes!

 Bad plan. It literally didn't work at all. I tried three times. First time, I got a wall in my face. It was bumpy. Not much else. 

 Second time, I got the corner of the footboard in my hip. It hurt. Not much else. 

 Third time, I got the other side of the footboard in my other hip. It hurt. Not much else.

 And so it goes.    

 Random Question: Do you ever, like, in a public place, feel self-conscious walking over to a bench or something. I do. I'm not insecure or anything, but if I'm the only person moving, I feel like everyone's watching me.

 This is me: Walk. Over. There. It's absolutely fine. It's not like you're the only person moving. It's definitely not like everyone's... watching... you.     

 OMG, just had a major realization. You know that song by Little Mix (an Australian band), Wings? Well, one of my favorite lyrics to sing, is:

                                                 WALK! WALK ON OVER THERE!     
                                                  'CUZ I'M TO FLY TO CAAAARE!
                                                           OH YEEEAAAH!  
                                              YOUR WORDS DON'T MEAN A THING, 
                                                         I'M NOT LISTENING!
                                                 KEEP TALKING, ALL I KNOW IS...            

 Yeah, love that song. Love it so. Freaking. Much.

 Okay. I swear, do you guys feel like I'm babbling on about whatever pops into my head that may or may not be interesting?

 Well, you would be correct...

 Yep, it's a boring day. Booooooorrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnngggggg. Boring. So boring.

 How about a little fun with facts?!?

 Word of the Day: Arbitrary. I am so bored to day that I will spare you the trouble of looking it up. It means based on or subject to individual discretion or preference.

 Yeah, good luck figuring that out.

 Song of the Day: Wings - Little Mix (...)

 Random Fact: Paper money continues to be printed with green ink because, according to the U.S. Bureau of Printing and Engraving, the ink was plentiful and durable and the color green was associated with stability. Today, there is some $1.2 trillion in coins and paper money in circulation in America. [Mostly copied, with a few changes. I'm glad I know... I used to wonder why they weren't purple.]

 Random Fact About Me: When I get a new book off Amazon in the mail, I squeal and jump around, hugging both my parents, before running back to my room to jump on the bed and read, read, read.

 Today's Prophecy: Tomorrow, when I look out my window, there will be a big, fluffy, stuffed panda bear with a red bow around it's neck, waiting for some cuddles! 

 We'll see how this works out...

 Yeah, people of the big, beautiful earth, that's my post for today! Please comment, it's always interesting to hear what others have to say!

 Bye, hope you guys will come back to party! We'll have streamers and chocolate cake and giant stuffed pandas! You could enjoy all this while sitting down, if you like...

 XOXO! YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO!

 That was lame. 

 Anyways... bye!!!

Tuesday: Night Owls, Early Birds

IT'S TEA TIME!

 Yes, I know, you just couldn't wait to be in my presence again after so long! 

 Obviously, that's not the case, you probably came back because you're bored and have nothing else to do, and I actually haven't been gone for that long at all and this is probably an extremely cinnacle way of putting all of this. Hardy-har-har!

 And on that note...

 So, there isn't really much going on today. But last night I literally couldn't sleep, it was horrible. Not even kidding, I fell asleep at ten something (#nightowl), woke up at 1:00 (#earlybird), fell asleep again, woke up at 3:04 (that was an estimate), fell asleep again, woke up again at 5:30, fell asleep again, woke up again at 6:40, fell asleep again, and finally woke up and braved through the half-awake, half-asleep stage for a half hour.

 Oh, hehe, I just noticed, in the parentheses previously, I said #nightowl and #earlybird. There's actually a song by Foxes called that. I LOVE it.

                                                NIGHT OWLS, EARLY BIRDS!
                                WIDE-EYED LOOKIN' LIKE YOU'RE UNDER A CURSE!
                               SAVE ME, SAVE ME, GO UNDERNEATH THE GROUND!
                                              A WILD FIRE INSIDE ME BURNS!
                                    WHY DO I LOOK LIKE I'M WEAR FOR WORSE?
                               SAVE ME, SAVE ME, GO UNDERNEATH THE GROUND!

 I'm telling you, this is the hard life of a homeschooler! Oh yeah, forgot to mention that. I'm HOMESCHOOLED! WHOOPEE!

 For those of you who go to a public/private school, let me explain homeschool. People always react differently when I tell them I'm homeschooled. Most people are like, Oh my GOD! You're so lucky, you probably get to sleep in and do half days, and take off all the time, and get free time, and have snacks, and watch movies, and read books, and you don't have homework, and you can just stay in your pajamas all day! 

 Yeah, no.

 Some of that is true to a certain level. I'm going to go through it one by one, 'kay? 'Kay.

 (1) I am allowed to sleep in if I had a late night the day before, or if I'm sick, or if I have a tiring schedule for the afternoon. Otherwise, I actually love to get up early. Being the only one awake is really fun, and I can get things done before school starts. Pro.

 (2) No, I don't get half days too often. Only when my family has a loong schedule for the day, or have to stay out late. Pro./con.

 (3) I'm actually not allowed to take off school for holidays! I mean, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and my birthday (I count that as a personal holiday), but not the Fourth of July, Valentine's Day, President's Day, and things like that. Con.

 I complain a lot about that...

 (4) Hm, free time. I get a longer lunch break, sometimes I finish school early, and if I get up early enough, I have more than an hour of that before I start. So, I guess? Pro...?

 (5) Snacks. Can't say nada to that... hehehehehehehehe... Pro.

 (6) Movies. No. Never. Ever. Con.

 (7) Read books. Sometimes. Usually for school, though. Pro./con.

 (8) Homework. That's definitely a pro.

 (9) Pajamas all day? I'm definitely allowed to, but I hate doing it. Fact: Studies have shown that you feel more awake when you change from pajamas into clothes. I haven't worn pajamas during the day since.

 So, there you go. That's a list of everything people have right, and what they have wrong. Trust me, I have other friends who are homeschooled, and it turns out, we all agree.

 Time to party! Sit down!

 Word of the Day: Constituent. Look it up.

 Song of the Day: Night Owls, Early Birds - Foxes. Come on, people, we knew it.

 Random Fact: While everyone assumes the "G" stands for "Green Bay," the oval logo actually stands for "Greatness." The Packers hold a trademark on the logo which was created by equipment manager George Braisher back in 1961. [Copied, again. But... wow. Now I have a record of one thing I know about football that my dad doesn't!]

 Random Fact About Me: My room has gone through three different wall colors. In order: lilac, mint green, and pink, the current color. I plan to paint it white in the summer.

 Today's Prophecy: Tomorrow, I will wake up at 7: 47. Completely random, but I stand by my word. By the way, I actually haven't finished March (Conspiracy 365, yesterday's prophecy), but I still have the afternoon...

 So, yeah guys! This is today's post, hope you enjoyed it enough to want to come back and party, sit down, smell the roses, whatever ya wanna do! Please comment, like, and subscribe. JK, this is not Youtube. But, really, do comment. Then you can join the party!

 I won't discriminate, though. You could also join the sit-down...

 Love you guys (do I?) I have no doubt that I love you guys... keyboard just, hehe, wanted to have some fun with parentheses and question marks! Bad... keyboard...?

Monday: Hello!

 YOU ALREADY KNOW WHO IT IS!

 No you don't, this is my first blog post on this totally new and amateur blog of mine, and you've most likely never seen me in your life, so you almost definitely don't know who it is. Just wanted to use a Silento reference. Sorry about that. 

 My name isn't actually Alice, but, due to my love of the name, and the fact that sharing identity crap online is prohibited (in my family), we're gonna pretend it's Alice. 

 TBH, I have a lot of interests in a lot of stuff specifically, so I'm going to summarize: Books, ballet, writing, books, movies, TV shows, makeup, books, hair, clothes, music, books, singing, acting, piano, books, books, and books. 

 I mentioned books... right?
  
 Hmm, what else? Oh, this isn't actually my first blog. I switched to this because I didn't like my first one. I'll leave the link to it down below (Hey, I sound like a youtuber!) and you can tell me what you think...  

 My original reason to start blogging is because I LOVE books. Love, love, love, love, love them. And, when I heard about fanfiction, I was like, NO WAY! THIS IS LIKE ONE OF MY UNICORNS AND RAINBOWS DREAMS (Not really...)! So I created the blog, had some fun, then got bored. 

 My intention with this blog is to not do that. And, instead of completely fanfiction, other, random stuff. I might not do any fanfiction, actually. 

 Oh, by the way, who didn't get that Adele reference in the beginning? Haha, just can't get over that song. I think I annoy everyone I know hourly with that. So...

                                        HELLO FROM THE OTHER SIIIIIIDE!
                                    AT LEAST I CAN SEE THAT I'VE TRIIIIIED!
                                          TO TELL YOOOU, I'M SOOORRY!
                                        FOR EVERYTHING THAT I'VE DONE!
                           BUT WHEN I CALL, YOU NEEVVER, SEEM TO BE HOOOME!!!
 So... yeah.

 Would it be cool if, every time I post, I did something like, Word of the Day, Random fact, etc.? Well, doesn't matter what you think, I'm doing it. All in good fun!

 Word of the Day: Expedient. Look it up.

 Song of the Day: Hello - Adele. Duh...

 Random Fact: When Peter Piper picked his peck of pickled peppers, he picked the equivalent of 1/4 of a bushel. While no one knows the origin of this word nor how it came to be a unit of measurement, we do know that Peter's peck of pickled peppers amounted to the equivalent of 2 gallons of dry weight, or 10 to 14 pounds. [I actually copied this off a random Google search, but I find it fascinating!]

 Random Fact About Me: I literally can't stand gum, mints, cherries, spices, or whipped cream. If you think I'm crazy, maybe you're right, but I feel sick even thinking about any of those!

 Today's Prophecy: Tomorrow, I will finish March (it's the third book in an awesome series called the 365 Conspiracy.), and it will end just as horribly and cliff-hanger-y as all of the books previously.

 I hope you enjoyed this post enough that you want to come back and party! Not like you have to party, I mean. You could just come back and sit down or something. 

 Please comment in the comment section, place, thing, section, place, thing. Whatever it's really called, please do comment. It would be really nice!

 Here's the link to my previous blog, you can just click right there, have some fun, party, sit down, go to the bathroom, whatever makes you comfortable.
