argh i cant wait for school to be out! ive got major french homework to do tonight (although i probably wont get to it until lunch tomorrow), i totaly failed my biology quiz today (only 7 out of 18 right!) and im scared to of my algebra 2 final. i have my graphic art final on thursday but i think thatll go okay. lkdndsf! school sucks. i did get my yearbook though. its super ugly but its fun to laugh at. i think my school pictures are slowly and slowly getting less ugly.
haha today in art, i showed this guy one of my old sketches from the beginning of the year, and he was all, "wow, thats a perfect sketch! youre just perfect, arent you christina?" haha aww :) and then some guy came in the room, and my teacher introduced me to him and was all, "this is christina, shes a sophomore and shes a genius!" hahaha.

girl, you have no faith in medicine

my parents always complain that i dont go outside enough...so this weekend i started a little flower garden outside, and this morning my dad and i went out to play tennis. ive never been really good at tennis, but today my dad taught me how to serve properly and he said i did a couple really good ones. i told him i dont mind having to wake up early on saturday morning to go out and play tennis if it will keep them from always complaining that i dont excercise ever. i planted 4 rows of seeds and two potted plants outside in the backyard. we bought another gerbera daisy plant. my mom has bought them twice before but they keep dying off. so i thought id give it a shot. i also bought these bright little fuzzy flowers..i dont know what theyre called but theyre really colorful. i should try taking pictures once i get some sprouts up.
im practicing making tshirt designs. i dont care if its too hard, i want to try it at least once. my dad said once he just used lots and lots of coats of spraypaint, and he said it lasted quite a while.

no one could tell even if i fell

my cousins and i went to the movies last night and saw daddy day care. thats probably the first little kid movie ive seen that was actually really good in a long long time. go see it! steve zahn is in it. haha. i can only remember one other movie hes been in that i saw...but i saw him on conan the other night and he was great. so yes, go see daddy day care. we were gonna try to sneak into xmen but the theatre was full. i <3 sneaking into movies...haha they make you pay nearly 10$, you might as well get your moneys worth, right?
ive gotten to new yourk city in thps2. i still cant get past marseilles...but im like 7000$ away from venice beach! i cant wait!

i got a sick score (75000 pts) for the hangar in thps2! ive gotten all the way up to marseilles, but i cant seem to get past it. haha i really suck at videogames but i guess im improving.
yesterday was may 16th. my favorite day of the year. you know whats sorta weird?
lagwagon, one of my favorite bands
plays "may 16", my favorite song of all time
thats track number 11, my favorite number
on "lets talk about feelings", one of my favorite cds.

No more waiting on them as you rise inside new rooms
It's official, you've gone, you can live for no one else
Man, the guilt must be huge
As there's no gain in failure you succeed at being mine
Yeah, old friend, see you there
I will be proud from afar
I can paint a picture in a moment of memories and there aren't many left
I am extradited, uninvited
It's just another saturday
Take a step to freedom
You and her against this cruel world
Take a breath of shelter and exhale trust and allegiance
Liberate yourself from hell
It's just another saturday.
<3

"yes, but hes no puff!", she cried...

i was talking to some people in my history class today and somehow we got onto the subject of weird dreams weve had...i just realized that a lot of my dreams are about . its totally weird. i remembered one where i dreamed my school flooded and we all died. then i remembered one from when i was like, seven, where my mom tried to kill my brother with a knife but i stopped her. and there was one a few years ago where this guy was chasing me through the forest with a gun. and there was one from a looooong time ago where i dreamed i brought a lion home as a pet and it ate my cat. and you know that little hand person on the cover of hamburger helper boxes? i had a dream when i was really young that he was attacking me...he moved around like that hand on the addams family, and then i shoved him in the oven and he died. haha. i have such demented dreams. oh and the other day, i dreamed that 4 guys i know all got plastic surgery so that their hands would be the same. i wish i could record these things so i could watch them later. haha.

are we yet?

i want to get a screenprinting kit. i found a place in san jose that sells plain shirts in every style imaginable. im so excited. i already designed a little logo that says "modey lemon" in white and yellow...i probably wont use it but it looks super cool anyways.
i just taught myself to play "may 16" by lagwagon <333333 that song is so easy, i cant believe it was too fast for me before! i guess that means im improving?

holy crap.

the new alkaline trio cd is amazing. and the cover art is beautiful.
"the only tunes we hear come via antenna through your car raid-ee-uh-oh-oh-no..." <3

  "hello, this is jack and meg white from the white stripes. we dont listen to live 105 cos we dont live here." hahaha. <3 them.
  this morning a bird flew into my kitchen window, fell to the ground, and died. then a blue jay came over and flew off with it.
  in other news, i successfully killed my computer and am now without internet. fun stuff.

the s will never feel just what its like to hear them squeal

2003-05-10T12:06:26Z

ive noticed that a lot of the time, when im talking to someone, they just look at me. i can tell theyre not listening...and its all awkward cos theyre all staring at me and not saying anything.
i think modey lemon is my new favorite band.

ugly or pretty, its still my city.

2003-05-08T17:34:24Z

  im gonna set up a little portfolio folder online just so i can keep all my presentable work in one place. after i get that set up, im going to email this one ska band and ask if they need some flyers or website stuff or anything like that done. im planning on doing some simple stuff like that for free so i can build up a proper portfolio and gain some experience before i start trying to do it for pay.
  i <333333333 enjoi skateboards, with all my heart. they have such awesome style...its so clean cut, but it still has a grungey/messy skater sort of look to it. and theyre hilarious. and rodney mullen! i swear, those guys are my idols. <3 the panda.
  4 totally weird songs i cant stop listening to:
1. "the alien song": red aunts w/ exene cervernkova
2. "jilted john": the vandals
3. "do you feel it?": funeral oration
4. "get out of my life": adolescents
  i wanna go to warped again this year...ill have to remember to call up michelle soon :) hopefully i wont forget!

the schools that they send us to are prisons

dogtown and z boys is such a great movie. i thought it was gonna be a real movie but it was actually a documentary. the entire history of skateboarding. those kids were seriously hardcore. but it had me thinking, why isnt anything today as good as it was yesterday? i mean, a long time ago, the punks were actually punks, art was done the hard way (no computers for cheaters like me haha), and "skateboarding is not a crime" actually meant something. i hate how skateboarding is so commercial these days, what with the xgames or whatever, and tony hawk, and element is really pissing me off cos they make ugly girly shirts with fuzzy letters and crap. everything just seems so cheap these days. why do people have to try to make money off of EVERYTHING? those reality shows are really pushing it too. dont laugh, but i think id kill to be able to have lived during the 80s.

with tunnel vision on, yr the only one...

today i went to amoeba music in san francisco. the berkeley one is soo much better. its closer too. i was still able to get some good stuff...but there really wasnt much to pick from...
- "foot in mouth disease": gob
- "make up the break down": hot hot heat
- "mobilize": anti-flag
- "are a drag": me first and the gimme gimmes
- "adolescents LP": adolescents
- "all by myself LP": rikk agnew
- "welcome to reality (45)": adolescents
- "technology makes me sleepy (45)": the tri-city thundercats
all for 72$ total! it was originally 73$, but my mom said "do you take discover", and its sorta loud in there, so the guy thought she said "can i get a discount", so hes all, "um, i can take 1$ off for you" so after my mom repeated herself and he got what she was saying, he still gave us the 1$ discount. haha. well its the thought that counts i guess? i was so happy to get those adolescents records, i love them so so so much <3
