Boo... that is it... just boo...

Paradoxical People

People really seem to despise life on this planet. And yet, we all contrive to stay on it as long as possible - longer even. Why?

...just a random thought... anyways... I must go back to my W.Rel. project...

Ally is now dead... just a short note to say that I actually made it up the stairs of the CN Tower... whoohoo!!! go me!!! did it in 29mins 16secs... not to bad for a first try... anyways... I'm dead... so I'm off...

The Very Dead,
Ally

Snow!!!!

heeheehee... just a quick note... I came out of the literacy test (stupid pathetic thing... I think I may just have failed... I did too much work...) for my break today, and it was snowing!!! heehee... I love the first snow of the year... it always makes my day!!!

... *sigh*...
I was bored and just meandering 'round the net, when I noticed that I hadn't blogged in forever, so, I continued meadering until I arrived here... and figured that I should say something...

... okay... there we go... I've said something, and now I can leave... but I won't... y'know it's really weird... I really hate writting, and yet, last year I was really into the whole blog thing... and now, I'm back to normal old me... well... that is, nornal for me... we all know that normal for me is extremely abnormal for just about everyone else on the planet... and now, I'm just babbling... why am I babbling? I have no idea... I'm assuming it has something to do with avoiding my english project... which, I probably really should be doing...

... it's weird... I feel like everything I'm writting about makes my life sound depressing... meh... life's great... it's just that I don't really feel like blogging all about the entertaining things that happen in my day anymore... I mean, who really cares?... not that I ever cared 'bout that fact... it was just fun to write... now it's tedious... *shrug* oh well... I almost feel the same about reading anything other than short romance/fluffy-girliness novels... argh! what's wrong with me... I soo badly want to read what I used to be able to read... which was just about anything... mostly sci-fi/ fantansy... but, it's like I'm all excited 'bout the book... I pick it up, start to read it... and then, half way in, get bored and turn into a giggly-teenage girl and put it down... and the worst part is, that I'm not bored, I really want to read the book, but I can't... it's like, anything deeper than, say a puddle, is far to deep... my mind get's all airy and brainless as if it were drowning and not getting enough oxygen... it's so damn annoying!!!... and here I go again... whining and making my life sound depressing... which is pathetic, 'cause it's really the complete opposite...

... speaking about it being the complete opposite... I Gots A New Baby Cousin!!!...heehee... he was born on Wednesday, his name is Keith, and I get to see him today... assuming of course, that I finish the hw that I'm putting off right now...

... lesse... what else is there to talk about... ...honnestly, it's sad... I never shut up... and here I'm having trouble thinking of what to say... meh... seems to happen everytime I have to write or type something... speaking is sooooo much more fun... 'cause, then people are forced to listen... well... not necessarily... most of my friends and family have developed the amazing ability of being able to pretend that they're listening, while actually thinking of something completely different, such as what colour shoes they're gonna buy next time they go shopping... or how they really love that new tv show... not that I have a problem with that... I mean... It's not exactly as if I actually listen to myself... my brain has usually gotten bored about two seconds into the "conversation" (if you want call it that... I usually do all of the talking...) and is off in some other dimension, trying to figure out how I'm gonna get my 20-somethingth meal of the day, and if the world is actually a hyperbolic paraboloid and not a sphere as they keep trying to make us believe... occaisionally, it comes back down to earth, and wonders if my mouth'll ever shut up so that it can get something intelligent in... like, say, asking the person I'm talking at whether or not they have any food...

*takes a breath and blinks as if coming out of a daze*

... okay... no clue where all of that came from... it seems that not only my mouth, but my hands as well, have a life of they're own... you people are just lucky that you are not forced to read all of this... on the other hand... since you are staring at this, I'm assuming that you have read it... and are therefore insane... whether you were before, or are now because of my babbling, is a completely irrelevant fact... unless of course, it was my babbling that drove you insane, which would probably mean that you find it very relevant and will be trying to kill me the next time I see you... if that is the case, please post a comment so that I can know to place you in the same category as homework, and avoid you at all costs... also, try to remember that insanity is a great place to be, and that you should love, not hate the person who sent you there...

and now, I must get back to my work,
So long,
From The Ever-So-Whatever-ish,
Ally

... not too much in this corner...
... I actually can't think of anything to talk about... other'n the fact that I'm bored outta my mind... and just sitting here like an idiot... hmm... what to say, what to say...
... lesse... school's actually not too bad... better'n I thought it would be... but just watch, now that I've said that, it'll get worse... ...what else is there... hmmm... me, being my normal crazy self... bought a pink candy-stripped top when I was at the mall on friday... it's quite hideous... looks gorgeous on me though, soo... heeheehee... pink, candy-stripe & gorgeous... ... anyways... just thought I'd do a little update... but I've done it now... so I guess that leaves me free to go...

So Long,
From The Ever So Wonderful,
Ally

... Hello again...
Been a while since I last blogged hasn't it... back to school today... funfun... well, not really... schedule goes as follows:

Day 1 -
Science
Careers/Civics
LUNCH
French
English

Day 2 -
World Religions
Math
LUNCH
Canadian History
Intro to Anthropology, Sociology and Psycology

... I swear that they're trying to kill me... My four core subjects are gifted and the other three are gr 11... my easiest course (apart from car/civ) is gr 11 gifted french... Argh!!! I'm so mad that I don't have drama... oh well, next year... Also I kinda wanted to spend less time on schoolwork this year and just relax before I have to start stressing *sigh* guess that one's not happening... Anyways, so far my teachers seem pretty nice... so it shouldn't in any way be a bad year (well, 'cept for the work overload thing) ...
... had a pretty good summer... trapeze for the first four weeks, then two weeks off, then a three week journey around Peru... which was really pretty cool... the only problem is that I've been really active all summer, and then suddenly, I'm back in school... sitting there doing nothing but listening to teachers ramble on about thier courses... I mean, I know it's important, but it's really really annoying to have absolutely nothing to do after quite literally, running around wild all summer...

... I'm sorry, I'm not usually this down... and I've usually got atleast one interessting thing to say... I guess I'm really just pretty exhausted right now...
The Horribly Tired and Worn,

Ally has had complaints...
about the fact that she hasn't blogged in a while... and the fact that she talks way too much elsewhere but hardly at all here... thus she is going to do a quick update-torial blog...

um... let's see... hmmm... well, she had her end of session trapeze show, where she did a gorgeous layout catch... no return... and um... yah... she's leaving for Peru on friday... and won't be back 'til school starts... if she happens to never come back... blame it on her mom... she want's to canoe the amazon...

okay... that's it... that's my summer so far...
'ya happy now???
The Horribly, Terribly, Lazy,
Ally

Sorry I haven't blogged in so long...
I've been kinda busy... and with the comming of summer I've been outside more and more, and on the compy less and less... also, my brain has decided that as it is summer, it will be going into complete ditz mode - as oppose to the regular, semi-ditz mode... this means, that it will not partake in any intellectual activities what-so-ever... well... reading not included... (hey, I need to keep it occupied somehow)... and even then, the deep, thought provoking books will be mixed in amoung nice, fluffy, easy stuff... because of this, I will probably not post very much this summer...

Have fun,
Ally

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
*sobs*

I can't go!!! I have dance on Saturday and I can't go!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!! grrrr!

ya, so recital in three weeks... sooooooooo not ready... I still haven't seen reloaded... and um... I know there's more... I'm absolutely certain that there is... what else is new... um... Mr. Rooney brought in two locust on a plate the other day... that wasn't what I was going to say... but hey, why not...

Bye-d-byez,
Ally

OMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Happy but Frustrated,
Ally

Hihi's...
sorry I haven't posted in so long... I've been kind of busy...

... I just read over my post script about the looting of museums in Iraq, I think I sounded a little more calous than I meant to be... I mean, in no way would I ever want my family to die, but honestly that type of history, when it's the only stuff left in the world that could give us clues to our beginings... well, I value that more than my own life (then again, if I were dead it wouldn't matter, would it? ...which I gues is kind of a paradox...*shrug*) so I donno...

... my math teacher decided a few days ago that we were done the curriculum for this year, so we should start learning trig... I think it's the easiest thing we've done all year... then, today she was pretending to pour coffee on my head, so I jumped up, and went flying halfway across the room... she later told my science teacher to not let me out of my seat incase I went flying yet again...

... hmmmmmm... lets see... in other news... oh! ... I saw the strangest thing the other day... I've seen lot's of people get on the ttc stoned... and I've seen lot's pf people smoke while on it... which pisses me off to no end... especially when they're sitting right under a "no smoking sign", do they not have any respect? there are so many kids on the bus... how can they do that? ... anyways... so this guy get's on the bus... walks to the back... and starts smoking weed!!! ... honnestly! how strange is that... everyone was so stunned that no one said a word... it's not suprising that the driver didn't smell it, 'cause lot's of people get on the bus smelling like weed (in the mornings too... just how bad are their lives that they need to get stoned at eight in the morning?) ... but still!!!

well... I really gotta go...
it's been nice talking/typing at you,
The Very Tired and Extremely Out-Of-It,
Ally

*sigh*... I'm bored... and not tired at all... *sigh*...

I just read "An Ancient Civilization" by Acey... it gooooooooooood... it's here at fiction press... and she'll prolly kill me for giving you the link... but the story is absolutely hillarious... though you'll only really understand it if you Canadian...

yup... I should probably go...
nighty-night,
Ally

Ally has finished her english article ... yay!!!

heeheehee... if anyone tried to talk to me on msn today, this is what they got...
...bored... auto-message: Ally is busy, she is doing her english project-assignment-thingy, she has been stalling for the past 6 or 7 days... please do not try to talk to her, as it would allow her to get distracted - taking even more of her brain power away from her work... this would be especially unproductive seeing as how we all know that she doesn't have very much intelligence to start with, this gives her work a very limited suply and so, she cannot spare the single brain cell needed to talk to you...

yupyup... so anyways... I just thought I'd post that...

bye-d-byes,
The Increasingly Odd and Incomprehensible,
Ally

On a lighter note...

I got bored earlier... I seem to do that often... just like going off on tangents... I do that all the time while I'm talking, when I'm writting and reading too... though luckily for my readers, when I'm writting I tend to do it in my head... well... most of the time anyways... getting back on track... because of my boredom I decided it would be fun to read online dictionaries... *Note - Ally is confusing "fun" with avoiding her english project at all costs* ... I happened to stumble upon "The Devil's Dictionary", it's absolutely hillarious... it was written by Ambrose Bierce in 1906, and the definitions are still true today!!! ... it's basically a satirical dictionary... I found these two deffinitions extremely funny:

OPTIMISM, n. The doctrine, or belief, that everything is beautiful, including what is ugly, everything good, especially the bad, and everything right that is wrong. It is held with greatest tenacity by those most accustomed to the mischance of falling into adversity, and is most acceptably expounded with the grin that apes a smile. Being a blind faith, it is inaccessible to the light of disproof -- an intellectual disorder, yielding to no treatment but death. It is hereditary, but fortunately not contagious.

and

PESSIMISM, n. A philosophy forced upon the convictions of the observer by the disheartening prevalence of the optimist with his scarecrow hope and his unsightly smile.

heeheehee... I could go on about how true they are... but I won't... I think it's pretty obvious to all....

I know I haven't blogged much lately... but I hope to blog again soon...
Ally

ps. Oh, about the looting of museums in Iraq.... NO! you do not do that, you just don't... I personally don't hold any love for museums... but all of that history lost, distroyed or stolen is almost physically painful to think about... why the hell didn't those ass-holes in Washington do something to protect them??? ... honnestly, as calous as this sounds, I don't care how many more soldiers would have been killed protecting the museums... I'd let my whole family die before I'd let someone destroy that much history and knowledge!

*sigh*... I'm feeling kinda philosophical... but I don't really want to write about it...

I was catching up on my blog reading, when I stumbled across an old(ish) post of Evan's about existentialism(beleiving that all people are free(not bound by a supernatural being) and are responsible for their own actions) and atheism(not beleiving in any godlike figure), and about what Friedrich Nietzsche (that's a nightmare to spell) said - "God is dead, therefore man is free." ... Evan was saying how not beleiving in any sort of deity would leave no purpose in your life, giving you a hollow, empty feeling. In some ways this is true, I mean, I'd like to think that there was some meaning for my life, that I live for a reason... on the other hand, that reason could be extremely small and pathetic, and yes it would be something to live up to, but what about when I acheived that, would I be allowed to go further and explore? ... Or, upon achieving what was desired of me and living out my usefulness, would I die?
... personally, I'm a mix of beliefs and philosophies, I have not yet decided exactly what I choose to believe about anything. This is rather odd seeing as how I'm a "why" person and need to know the why of everything immediately or I feel that I'll just die (and after that, I need to know the when, who, where and how... but I generally enjoy figuring those out on my own... I think another way to describe "why" people is nosy... though I prefer curious or adventurous) ... then again, the fact that I'm nosy might explain why I'm still "sitting on the fence"... this way I get to hear everyones ideas and philosophies and consider them all equally and unobjectively... plus, I'd like to be able to explore and experience them all before I choose, that way I'll know that I've chosen the right one... or maybe I won't... none of us really will until we die... and even then we might not... that's another fun thing to consider... what happens after we die...
I know the empty feeling Evan's talking about, the one you get by not beleiving in anyting... It's pretty horible... I don't experience it much... I'm more agnostic than anything... for those of you who don't know... that's beeing deliberately ignorant, and refusing to agree whether or not there is a godlike thing hanging around... I don't really follow the ignorant part though, since I enjoy contemplating all of the different philosophies... the only thing I really know for sure, is that I have a limited time on this earth... in this particular body anyways... and that I intend to travel, explore and experience as much as possible, physically and mentally while I'm still around to do it... who knows, maybe all my adventures and escapades will lead me to a higher understanding... and if they don't, who cares... at least I spent my life doing and thinking exciting and enjoyable things that I won't regret...

Philosophically Yours,
Ally

Happy Easter/Passover/Whatever-You-Celebrate!!!

I had the oddest dream last night... I'll admit it freaked me out... I donno why though.... the dream it self wasn't really scary...

We had this supply tech teacher, and he decided that we hadn't learnt electricity properly, so he decided to take us all out, and by all I mean every single gr.9, even those who weren't in tech... and have us wire the whole town as a parallel circuit... strange, I know... so anyways, I eventually gathered that he was planning on blowing up the town (can you do that using a prallel circuit?) ... I started telling everyone what was going on, but it was like they couldn't stop or something... for some strange reason that didn't bother me at all... not until I got this horrible feeling that something/someone was going to die if I didn't get them out, appearantly there had been an evacuation warning for all the families before hand, but this thing had missed them... so, so far the dream had been pretty normal... well as far as dreams go anyways... but then when I was looking for the thing to save... which I'm pretty sure was a dog... it was like I couldn't do anything, I just kept running around in circles in a giant maze... now, usually I like the maze type dreams, their fun... but after a while this just got tedious... usually when something like this happens I can sort of semi control the dream if i have to... but as soon as I tried moving off my "path" I woke up... okay so the dream still isn't to scary... I told you it wasn't... but when I fell back asleep the dream just started over again from the begining... that was the odd/scary part... no matter where I tried to control the dream I would wake up... then fall back asleep and the dream would start again... in the end I eventually let myself run in circles 'till time was up and I don't think it ever ended... but man, when your used to beeing able to nuge your dreams onto the right path... it's really freaky when something like this happens...

oh well, gtg...

I'll blog sometime soon (hopefully),
Ally

*sigh*

... well... not much has been happening lately... life been kinda... well... I can't really say dull or boring... it's been kinda like a relaxing break... if you don't count the rush to do four assignments and two projects...

I really don't have anything in particular to talk about...wow, that's a first (note the sarcasm)... and I'm not really in the mood to blog... so I guess I'll go now...

Bye-d-Byes,
The Wonderful and Amazing,
Ally

Sorry I haven't been updating much lately... we've been getting lot's of projects and assignments at school and I've been really tired... I prolly wont update much in the next lil' while...

byes,
Ally
