Whenever I played Clue I was Miss Scarlet and I always ended up comitting the murder.
I dont know if that means something.
Dinner party tonight, I'm excited.
We're actually going out but I get to dress so Pan is happy.
The theme was orginally a classic hollywood kind of thing, I think Emily wanted something mroe specific then "fancy" which is what I decided the theme last time was.
Now we're doing formal dress but I'm still wearing a Breakfast at Tiffany's kind of thing except probably without the hairstyle. But I got the dress at Anna's garage sale and I have a few tiaras just lying around.
I convinced my carpool Emily that I used to be in beauty pagents when I was a kid and thats why I had so many tiaras.
If she ever comes over the jig will be up once she sees I don't actually have a trophy case on my wall for all my tiaras.
I like saying the jig is and stuff like that.
Emily and Megan want to change over here so I think I'll have to clean up my room.
I think I'll resort back to my sisxth grade strategy of pushing everything under the bed.

[raoawr]

You should do the hairstyle.

And get pictures.

[xangelkimzx]

-Pan, make sure to take pictures! Your outfit(s) sound very nice.
-Everyone keeps telling me I've lost weight so I'm happy.
-I have to keep going, though.
-I hope they're right.

Pictures I plan on, I don't know if I have enough hair for the hairstyle or enough time.


Kimia, I don't think you need to loose weight.

[xangelkimzx]

-Thanks, but I do. Really.
-Have a nice time, Pan.
-I wish I had dinner parties like that.
-I want a Halloween party again but my house is too small so it'd be a tiny party like last year, which isn't all that fun.
-I should ask Lara because she has the biggest house out of my friends, though I don't really see her much nowadays.
-We're in different class populations in school now.
-And forms.
-Auf Der Maur is love.

[Antenora]

-My father, my sister, and I saw Corpse Bride.
-The theater was crowded, and we had to sit through a lot of ads, but it was worth it.
-The movie was great.
-It was certainly weird and wonderful, and beautifully animated.
-I liked it better than The Nightmare Before Christmas, although that was also quite good.
-My computer's been troublesome.
-Earlier, it froze completely.
-Mother had to restart it about three times, close a lot of programs that stalled, and unplug the mouse.
-It's working fine now.
-I used to have a tear-off-a-day calendar somewhere.
-Someone gave me one of those calendars, with logic puzzles or something, for Christmas, and I never actually used it.
-Instead of tearing off a page every day, I just treated it as a book of puzzles and flipped through it, doing whatever puzzles looked fun.
-Some girls from down the street just came to our door, asking to trade toys with my sister, or something.
-They had a cat statue and a toy rooster, and said they wanted something "bigger and better".

[xangelkimzx]

-Corpse Bride isn't out here yet, but I'll definitely see it when it is.
-I'm glad you enjoyed it, Antenora.
-I should go now, it's almost midnight.

-That sounds like a game I played once.
-Everyone starts with a toothpick or something small and insignificant, then goes around the neighborhood asking for something "bigger and better".
-At the end, whoever comes back with the best stuff wins.
-It's a bit like a scavenger hunt, I guess.
-I want to see the Corpse Bride sometime.
-My mom doesn't like the looks of it, so that means if I want to see it, I'll probably have to see it on my own time.
-Which might not happen.
-People never seem to want to go to movies with me.
-And I'd feel really stupid going by myself.
-Oh well.
-I'm doing a practice for the ACT test online right now.
-I've already finished the english and math sections.
-Now I'm on the reading section, and after that is the science section.
-It's pretty easy so far.
-Some of the questions were worded pretty awkwardly, though.
-I hate it when they do that.
-I'm looking forward to seeing Pandora's pictures.
-That dinner party sounds interesting.

I just slapped my mother, then tried to suffocate myself. My brother predicts I'll kill myself by 16. So now I have a goal. I don't know why I didn't keep the bag on an extra few minutes. I think I was almost there.
My mum was talking about how she was digusted in me, and how come I couldn't be more like whomever. I told her not to do that anymore. So did two shrinks and Brett and even my dad. But does she ever listen? Of course not. "How come you didn't get into the pit? EVERYONE gets into the pit," she says, she who doesn't attend the school and doesn't know anything but insists she does. "How come you didn't join sportsnight, blue and gold night?" Perhaps I'm too busy with leadership, key club, YPA, the yearbook, the school magazine, academons. But those clubs don't mean anything to her, because she used to be in those other clubs. It's never good enough for her.
Words get me nowhere. For 5 years, we've been arguing about the same thing. It's frustrating. I couldn't help but hit her--I didn't make contact, though, I restrained myself. Ah, but then she challenges me. 'Hit me. Go ahead and hit me.'
So I do.
She's done this before, but I've never accepted her challenge. I've never laid a hand on her, despite what she wants everyone to believe. So if not hitting her counts as hitting her, then why not hit her? She literally asked for it.
I don't know if I held back or am just weak, but I don't think I did much more than tap her. I must have held back. Weak or not, if I chanelled all my hate and anger for her into a punch, she probably wouldn't be concious. It doesn't matter to her, though. She sees each experience as a new way to get pity, to become a tragic mother. So a tap in her mind becomes, say, being smashed with a hammer as she cries and begs for mercy, instead of her demanding that I hit her.
I hit her again later. I slapped her across the face because she said the M word. She wanted me to hit her. More pity for her!
My dad says if I hit her, then she should have hit me back. My parents actually ever hit me less than they should, but they never miss an oppurtunity to remind me that I should be beaten senseless. So I take the punishments into my own hands--the biting, the stabbing, the cutting, the hitting myself with whatever metal object I can find.
Then I tried to suffocate myself but came on to get my affaris in order. I was planning on trying again later, but I don't want to add another failed attempt to my list. There'll be plenty of oppurtunities in the future, I'm sure.
