There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly.
~Richard Buckminster Fuller

I tend to procrastinate,
eat a lot,
start journals but never finish them (I have at least ten, if not twenty, and rising exponentially),

I...struggle with European History AP class,

~have a (crush??) on a guy who I've known since third grade and whom in his presence I allegedly hate (or act like),

~am suffering from tennis-itis (which is not, as thought to be, a wont to play tennis; on the contrary, it is suffering from too much thereof),

~have a score in the SATs that would put most sophomores (other than moi, that is) to shame ( - I mean, roughly a 2200; oh fine, 2100, if you must round down),

~:~have a tendency to use words such as:
pulchritudinous
thereof
suppose
aforementioned
suchlike
anyway
incidentally
obviously
actually
amazingly
beautifying
duly
criticise
meagre (I think those are British spellings, which I duly prefer over those of American's)

and phrases such as:
"it's your prerogative,"
"you have to admit,"
"that is,"
"per se,"
"and so-on and so-forth and so-on and so-forth..."
"oh, crap-it!"
"it's okay. At least I don't hit myself anymore."

and insults such as:
nematoda!
porifera!
...(and that's about it; meagre collection, nay?)

and so on and so forth, as listed above, or aforementioned. Heeheehee.

They have a new television series based off of the term "Vampire Diaries". It. is. hilarious! Basically, they take famous vampires and write diary entries for them. You can check out the lovely link here.

a few;

Edward (Twilight)

Dear Diary,
I'm having second thoughts about this whole "going to high school" thing. Carlisle says it helps us blend in longer, but does it? Really? I mean, if we just lived in the woods, and made sure our fake IDs said we were 18, wouldn't that be better than making sure every kid in town knows us, and getting our pictures taken and published in book form once a year? Also, the homework is starting to get really annoying. I mean, I have to write a paper on Miles Davis, and I can't even mention that we hung out that one time. This bites. Oh, well, guess I'm gonna go break into that new girl's bedroom and watch her sleep.

Bill Compton (True Blood)

Deah Diary,
Tonight, ah made the acquaintance of a lovely young woman by the name of Sookie St. James, and ah believe that ah am fallin' in luhve with huh. She has an unusual ability, in that when ah tell huh what to do, she does not feel obligated to accede to mah demands. This resistance to mah glamuh intrigues me, and ah am sorely tempted to invite huh back to my ancestral home and ask huh to play a game with me on mah Nintendo Wii. Ah do not know if she would prefuh Wii Golf or Wii Bowling, but ah am equally skilled at both, and that will hopefully tickle huh fancy. Yours truly, Bill.

Note: This is not an audio transcription -- Bill actually writes the way he talks. - Ed.

Angel (Buffy/Angel)

Dear Diary,
You may notice that my handwriting is a little funny today, and that is because I have been turned into a puppet. It's a long story, involving demons living in a kids' television program, but the short of it is that I will eventually be fine. The demons are dead, and the spell will wear off. Spike has been the worst about it, calling me "wee puppet man," but on the bright side I have been able to have some nice talks with Nina, a nice werewolf girl I met. Granted, she almost mauled me that one time, but I do resemble a chew toy, so I can't really blame her. And compared to my past relationships -- getting stabbed through the chest by one, getting cheated on with my own son by another -- a little light mauling is practically foreplay.

Lestat (Interview With the Vampire)

Dear Diary,
AAAAAHHHH! I AM ON FIRE! HELP! HELP! VAMPIRE ON FIRE! THIS IS NOT GOOD! THIS IS NOT GOOD! I AM WRITING THIS DOWN IN MY DIARY SO THAT I CAN THROW IT OUT A WINDOW AND PERHAPS SUMMON SOME HELP. HOPEFULLY, THE FINDER WILL FLIP TO THIS LAST ENTRY TO SEE WHAT MY MOST RECENT THOUGHTS ON RESCUE ARE. WHOOPS! THE PAGES ARE STARTING TO CATCH FIRE, AS WELL! WHAT SHALL I DO? WHAT SHALL I--

Note: the rest of the entry is too blackened by flames to read. - Ed.

Selene (Underworld)

Dear Diary,
GRRRR! This body suit is driving me insane! It keeps riding up, I squeak when I walk... Really, why even wear it, you know? Well, besides the fact that I look really good in it. Seriously, Diary, if you could see me now? Mm-mmm. Tasty. All of the other vamps were checking me out today, and even some of the werewolves, and keep in mind I was shooting at them at the time. I mean, who checks out the ass of the person who's currently shooting a gun at them? Werewolves, apparently. But I can't blame them, because I look pretty amazing. Whoops, gotta go, Diary -- I just awakened the founder of our clan from his centuries-old slumber, and he's kind of ticked off. Hopefully, he won't be able to stay mad at someone wearing a skin-tight leather outfit.

Spike (Buffy/Angel)

Dear Diary,
Aren't you a cutesy-wootsy little thing? I am writing this to let you know that I will not be writing in you ever again. You were a gift from Harmony, and a stupid gift at that, because I in no way want to talk about my feelings with a flipping book. Sod off, diary. I am tossing you in the rubbish bin.

Count von Count (Sesame Street)

Dear Diary,
One! One entry in my diary! Ah ah ah!

Dear Diary,
Two! Two entries in my diary! Ah ah ah!

Dear Diary,
Three! Three entries in my diary! Ah ah ah!

About me??

Okay.

I think shaving is a stupid thing but sort of an un-said mandate for playing tennis with bare shoulders.

- I mean, the results of shaving are not stupid, but the single act of shaving is. Or more acts. And more acts. And more (the hair won't stop growing, you know).

I think too much.

I will probably love you forever if you give me tips on writing, and

my goal in life is to get stuck in a day-long traffic jam, and
