Italian Soda mixed with my exciting friday nights... not so

Okay, so my mom took me to Zupas tonight. Loved it! Oh my, the Italian Soda is so wonderful. I think I even liked it better than diet coke which is really saying something. Haha. :) I did hangout with my mom tonight. It was fun! :) Anyway, I kept running into student council. First at Zupas and then at Walmart. I feel like stu co. should be an opportunity to create a unified student body and serve the students, not a popularity contest. Sorry. That is my opinionated mind emerging. I am starting to look at colleges to go to. I want to look at Cambridge and Oxford, but that would be window shopping. No fun there right? I think that I am going with the idea of the high school English Teacher. I want to shed my love of literature and writing on poor teenage souls that need some outlet or support and can find that not only at home, but through getting an education too. I am now going to go watch a movie with my very amazing mother! Haha. No Greek Gods tonight... :) Have a good night everyone! Remember what Sundays are for!

Confessions of a high school... Maddie. :)

Hello. My name is Maddie Violet. I love great conversations and perfect nail polish. When watching a chick flick, you are apt to hear me shouting, "I hate my life." Typical 16 -year-old. I have a pet turtle that goes to sleep 2 hours earlier then me and has a temporary tatoo.I hang with my mother on Friday nights. Yes, that is cool. :) I love the smell of fresh cut grass and new car scent pine tree air fresheners. I am a nerd. But not the kind that is completely socially awkward and has bad hygene. I'm just the girl that is in the library. A Lot. I take great pride and pleasure in the fact that I smell great. All the time. I love writing. My favorite thing to read are books written by English people because I love their humor. I love wearing my Green Sweater that came from the 90's. I dislike people that are pervy and say dumb things that just shouldn't be said. One of my favorite words is rather. I enjoy reading aloud, yes, even when I am by myself. My mind is wandering around the idea of becoming a high school english teacher. I can play Edeweiss on the piano and I am afraid of being alone. Wednesday is a great day for me and I love to read the Book of Mormon. I also find peace and comfort in singing in my car with the windows down even when it's cold outside. Cheers dahlings!

Maddie, not Dave.... (the office.) hahaha.

Hello World

Today I wore my new shoes. I love them with my whole heart. They are beautiful. :) I started reading The Secret Life of Bees. I am already starting to love it. I can just tell. Lately I have been so frustrated with things, but tomorrow will be good because it's Wednesday. That is the best day of the week afterall! So, the Greek Gods totally took on the library instinct from me and my friends. Haha. The library is such a wonderful place. I love reading because it gives me one minute to not have to live in my own life. That's probably why I rather enjoy reading high school romance books. Hehe. Today I am going to tell you some of my guilty pleasures. Why? Because I just want to.
+I love the smell of a shoe store.
+The way light reflects on of wooden blinds makes my heart smile a little.
+Wednesdays.
+A clean room. Also the light in my room. It is so pretty.
+Diet Coke from Lee's also known as the Chevron.
+The smell of my pillowcase.
+I adore the sound of cracking a book.
+Wearing skirts to school.
+The feeling of accomplishment.
+Pink Lemon Sours
+Writing on my Blog.

Maddie Violet, the girl who will one day be in two places at once. :)

Proof of my jaw dropping social butterfly skills

Tonight for Mutual we did a speed get to know you. It's like speed dating, but not. Haha, great analogy, right? Anyway, I feel so stupid. One of the guys was talking to me about choir tour. He asked what I was most excited for and being me I said, "Oh, I am so excited for the bus ride." After that, I realized what I had said and proceeded on to turn bright red and just giggle like a blasted dummy. I knew he was confused because he replied by saying, "Wow. The bus ride. Haven't heard that yet." He then laughed and rubbed his forehead. Me being me I said, "Yeah, I'm weird. Sorry." Haha. What a great high school experience. I did have fun talking to some of the girls in my ward though. They make me laugh a whole lot! :) I am also proud to say that I checked out a book yesterday and finished that book yesterday. It was so cute! Also my life in a book, except for the part where she makes out with the hot guy. Haha. It is called Perfect You. I recommend it, although there is some swearing. Don't say I didn't warn you. :) Happy Birthday to Arica, my cousin! Congratulations to my sister Libby who is halfway through being prego. Haha, I still won't drink out of her cup.

Breaking the Ice that is supposed to stay broken and my eternal embarassment.

In my sociology class we were assigned to break a social Norm. Well, I broke one for sure. Being a 16-year-old girl, image means a lot and many are familiar with the words "self concious." I know that when one sees the girl who is sadly outdated and maybe needs a little help with the concept that you should not wear gym shoes with a skirt, they start to make funny faces, gasp, and sometimes just give complete dirty looks. People in the American Society always seem to judge because of the way we are brought up, and the things and media we are exposed to. The girl who may be slightly outdated or wearing those opaque tights with those bright white shoes, probably doesn't know any better because of the kind of environment that she has grown up to see as right. I think that in society today, it is so important to have a self image and be okay with who you are despite what others say.
My experiment was to dress up as one who doesn't know better, and to break the social norm of fluffing the bangs, wearing the childish earrings and gym shoes with a skirt. I felt so embarassed, but what made me feel bad, was that I did feel embarassed. It made me realize what kind of society we live in when people in the social setting were staring and giving me sad looks of disapproval. I went to dinner at JCW's. I felt awkward knowing there were so many attractive guys there and that people were not okay with the way I was. I even felt so stupid, I took out the scrunchy, flattened my bangs and took out the earrings. American Society judges. Sometimes maybe a little too harshly. This experiment really opened my eyes to the way we see things fit and our social norms. :) Have a good Thursday everyone! :)

Greek Gods continued, Taco friend, and Ctr's

So I am just going to say something; You know you're desperate when you are excited a guy's hand touched yours when he gave something to you. Yes. This event did occur in my "just peachy, and awkward life." It was fun because I actually got a fork from one of them. It was really exciting. I actually kept it too. Tonight I was the only girl working in the back at my lovely Taco Amigo. I think I almost peed my pants laughing a couple of times. Ben and Zachary often know how to make me laugh a little too hard. Zach was asking me to be his, "CTR" aka,(choir tour romance) yeah. I don't think I believe in them. Then they were going on about how he is a diamond. Yeah, I kind of got lost in that analogy, but I still think my abs are going to be sore from laughter. :) Laughing is the best thing ever. Last night my mamacita asked Bridger to say the prayer and I just started to laugh, like, really, really hard. It was bad, but, it does happen every time. Well, I hope you all have a marvelously splendid Wednesday! I will! :) Yay for mail!

Smile because life is great and today is a wonderful day. :)

You know what? I love today. :) Despite the fact that my life is one huge awkward moment, I'm still on a good ride even though it does get a little bumpy sometimes. I am so grateful for everything I have. There is a Jessie Clark Funk song and it is called Everything Speaks His Name. I love that song because it is exactly how I feel about this wonderful world in which I live. :) How lucky are we? I am so glad that I have people who love me and have taught me to love and be grateful for the beauty around me. I am so glad that I have music. Without it, life would be so dull. I don't think that music is an earthly thing, it's heavenly. :) I must say something about my Saturday night. It was rather exciting for a high school girl who spends her day in the library. I got to hangout with a group and guess what? Some of the Greek Gods were present. It was so fun too, they even talked to me. Hee hee. Oh life. What a joyous life I do live! Life can be like a box of chocolates, but life can also be like a book. There are a lot of pages full of boring parts, an intense climax and the pages smell so wonderful. Some pages are filled with sweet and tender romance that keeps one from breathing correctly. There are villans, heros and by goers. That's life. And isn't it such a beautiful thing? I surely think so.

My life. My life. My life.

What up peeps? Haha. That was cool. For sure. Oh well. Anyway.... well today was fun. I am so not into Valentines Day, but I dressed up. :) I am not meaning to be boastful, but I did wear a pretty hot outfit. Haha. I even had two people tell me that I have pretty eyes. I felt so good. In U.S. History, this really attractive guy talked to me a lot. Yay! Haha. I had a blast in seminary. One of the special needs boys has a crush on me. Kendall. What a cute kid. He loves the Celtic Women. Haha. I recieved a Valegram. SO EMBARASSING! The guy was massaging my shoulders and blowing in my ear. After that, he continued on with caressing my face. It really didn't help that they came in when my math class was taking our hardest test of the whole year. It was great. :) I told some kid that my boyfriend Ronald in England called a flower shop and sent me roses. Yeah. He believed me. It was so funny. Now I've got about four people that think I really do have a boyfriend from England. I wish. Oh my life. It is so wonderfully peachy. :) Congratulations to my cousin Arica who found out that they are having a girl!
Happy Valentines Day! To all those lovers out there... get some ice cream and watch those fireworks! ;)

Good Afternoon

Good Afternoon! It is Saturday. All of my family has plans and I am sitting at home, bored out of my mind. Haha. Oh well. I was thinking maybe I could go put some gas in my car, maybe buy myself some lunch. Maybe I could sell something to get money for choir tour. Actually I think I am going to make Valentines cookies or something for people to buy. Yum! :) Well, I have concluded that my life is good, despite the boringness. I have a family who loves me and I am a cute girl who is mostly intelligent. I have Wednesday's to look forward to. I am living and breathing. I live in this beautiful world. Haha. Well I hope all of you have a wonderful Saturday today! Happy Birthday to my cousin Abby! I love you! Good job to Josh with the Jonah production!

today I did let the tear flow. while doing my hair.

Today life kind of just totally blew up right in my face. This morning I missed my sister a lot, along with my math help, and my friend is mad because I guess I am a rude peson. While I was doing my hair I just started crying. I felt so dumb, but sometimes it's okay to cry when high school throws things at you that hurt a little. I guess that from time to time I feel like I will be the luckiest girl in the world, when high school is nice to me... My sister told me it gets better when you get a little older. Hopefully that is so true. Thanks for the good advice Soph. :) Love you! I just need to remind myself to breathe. Everything will be okay. Sorry my blog has been such a drag lately! I promise, something better will come.

only yours truly,
Maddie Violet, the girl who is feeling drown by drama

Right now I would be okay with letting a few tears flow.

Today has been not so great. This morning, my blowdryer died and the straightener wasn't heating up all the way. Because the blowdryer quit on me, I had to use this one that sounds like at any minute it will blow up. It turned my hair very frizzy and flipped the back of my hair out. I went to straighten the back, but it didn't work quite well. At lunch my day really started plumeting downward. I got a huge headache. One of my really good friends is really upset and mad at me. I don't know what I did to upset her. Hooray for Maddie being a sucky friend. We should just make a banner that says, "It's Maddie's fault!" Yes. ah. I came home from school today and right away, pulled out my math homework. You have to understand that that is a rare occasion. Yeah. I couldn't do it. No matter how hard I try I just cannot do it. :( Too bad my math help is in Brazil. Also, I got a new English teacher, with whom I do not get along with. Oh well. I almost started to cry when I walked in the classroom only to realize Miss. Skabelund was gone. The good thing about my day is that I went to Kneaders for breakfast and this week is extra short especially because of ubsct testing. I don't have to be at school until 10:00 a.m. Hope everyone has a good week! :)
