uneventful

This weekend has been completely uneventful and boring. I just finished up some english homework and did some stretches and belly dance drills and now I have nothing to do. I am currently listening to the 1920s Radio Network. It's cool.
I need something to do. This is boring.
Have you ever realized how weird it is that we all talk to our selves inside our head. It's like earlier when I was thinking about what tests I have tomorrow in class I asked my self, "Geography? Biology? Math?" and some other little voice replied, "Yes, Casey, you have a Geography and Biology quiz, but no exams in Math!" I think it's really cool how that works out. I need to train myself to converse with that little head v
oice when I get bored, I guess I already do it subconsciously but I want to experiment.
Okay, I just re-read that paragraph and I sound like a total schizo. Well, whatever, nothing new there.
Oh! I just remembered! I watched Leatherheads for the first time today! 
Yay! It was so good. In case you don't know the story, it's set in 1925 when pro football was just starting out. George Clooney plays an older team member of the Bulldogs, one of the top pro teams all because of the fact that football had no set rules. John Krasinski is an all star college football player who is also a supposed "war hero." Renee Zellweger plays a reporter trying to get the real scoop on what happened to Carter (Krasinski) during the war. On the way Lexie (Zellweger) meets Dodge (Clooney) who is trying to get a break for his team from Carter's manager after their sponsorship fell through. Eventually Carter ends up playing for the Bulldogs and brings in big bucks for them, and I won't go on any further because I'll spoil the movie.
I loved it, though, not only because of George Clooney's sexiness, but because of the time period and the personality of the characters. The story was actually very believable and the story line was altogether enjoyable. Go rent it.

i love school!

Wow, has it been a long time, and now I have so much to talk about! First off, something I didn't think would be possible for me to say this year... I LOVE SCHOOL! It's amazingly, awesomely great! I have some really cool teachers this year, and I don't think I can say that I don't like any of them.
One of the biggest surprises is that I actually like P.E. this year. Ok, you may not know this but I am the biggest klutz and moron when it comes to most physical activity (minus belly dancing) and because of that I have dreaded physical education every year and avoided having to participate so intensely that you'd think basketball was a plague. So obviously it came as a shock to me when I said one day "I really like P.E. this year!" I swear to god the planets had to have fucking aligned in that moment. And it didn't end there, my coach now wants me to try out for the high jump for track. Believe me, I was surprised too.
Anyways, aside from all that athletic junk, I've been having a kick ass learning experience. I fucking LOVE my geometry teacher and I'm actually understanding the course now (fuck yeah I have a 90 in that class now!). She's in a neck and neck tie with Ms. Bechtel for being my favorite teacher ever. They're both awesome. Ms. Bechtel was my 7th grade Humanities teacher and was awesome we did a TON of artwork in her class and one of the best pieces I've ever done in my life was stolen out of her backroom. She almost started crying. I talked to Ms. Bechtel about EVERYTHING and we share a love for Gone With the Wind, Clark Gable, and men in tuxedos. Then 7th grade ended. It was a sad time, I wrote her an appreciation letter and everything. There were tears. Needless to say there was a void that needed to be filled. Who would've known it would come in the form of a math teacher. Mrs. Galvez is the long lost Ms. Bechtel-esque teacher I've been looking for and it's like and insane relief to be in her class. Obviously, she'll never replace Ms. Bechtel (they're different in many obvious ways) but she is held in high respect by me regardless. I now talk to Mrs. Galvez about everything and she's so cool about it. It's only the 6th week of school and she probably knows more about me than my parents do. I already know this year is going to be grand.
I'd also like to point out to anyone reading this that my birthday is coming up! On the 17th of October I shall be turing 15 years old. Yes.

au revoir
