Well, it's me.

I'm gonna be honest here, the only reason Im actually making myself overcome my terrible laziness to actually post something right now is because of Beffy's threat about Big Kid Jail.
I want to go someday, but not just yet.

Also I get to lay on my cousins very comfortable bed while I type.

So hummmm what's happened this past year for me...
Well, starting from this time last summer?
-I went on that trip to the mountainous South American country. It was absolutely wonderful and the best experience of my life.
-I got onto the drill/dance team at my school. It's my favorite thing in the world and I don't know where I'd be without it or my team.
-I became addicted to crystal meth.

Just kidding I'm actually a Dr. Pepper head.
-I added a few illegal things to my bucket list, and checked quite a few off.
-I lost someone who felt like family, and I got the news that my grandma will be gone before I celebrate my 17th Christmas.
-I made it another year without a significant other, WOOH go me claps for everyone. 
-MY LIFE IS PRETTY BORING
-IT'S SOMETHING THAT I CAN'T CONFESS
-OTHER WORDS GO HERE
-AND THERE'S THE REST OF THIS SONG


Yeah basically I'm starting college classes this year and keeping up 3 steady jobs. 
Independence is hitting me big this year, and while I feel ready, I can't decide whether to go all the way in or keep dancing on the edge. 
I'm dying some of my hair blue.

LOTS OF LOVE
STAY COOL

The Annual "OOPS! I did it Again" Post

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I think I did it again
I made you believe
I'd actually update this thing
Oh Baby
It might seem like I mean it
But that doesn't mean
I really mean it
Cause to forget all about this
Yeah that is just so typically me
Oh baby baby
OOPS! I did it again to this blog
Forgot
All about it
Oh baby baby
OOPS! you aren't reading this through
Cause it's dumb
and I
Think I'm really funny

Ok enough with that nonsense. I apologize for my failed attempts at good humor. Anyways, it's time to Catch Up with Beffy for the 3rd time since 2008.


Well looky here, it's 2013! So I guess we survived the end of the world! Yay us. Claps all around. Since my last post I have (basically) successfully completed Junior Year, lost an immediate family member to cancer (and I'm still not ready to write about it), decided what I want to do with my life (High School English Teacher because that's just the bees knees... and ironically I still haven't bought my Summer Reading books), been awarded the Master Sergeant position on my dance team (it's really not as fabulous as it sounds but you should still be proud of me), bought a fish without asking my dad(her name is Daphne and that made me feel like such a rebel judge me if you must), and created this list while trying to make myself sound as accomplished as possible (did it work?).




That's my silhouette trying to be really cool on a Cali beach at sunset. So if it didn't work, well... Blame my silhouette.

  I don't have 1/2 as much to say this year so instead I'll vent to you about my nerves.
PLEASE MOMMY DON'T MAKE ME GROW UP
I mean really who would want to leave home and high school where you don't have to pay rent or make your own food or gain the Freshman Fifteen...? I'm about to go into Senior year and, well...





In just over 6 months, I'll be a legal adult, and voting for our President and I could go to real jail. REAL, BIG PEOPLE JAIL. Does that mean I'm going to have to stop doing illegal things just to feel cool? Because I really don't want to be sent to Federal Time Out.
Ok I'm done
Whatever
Phebee. Your turn.
If you're reading this you are legally bound to update this blog or you will have to go to Big People Jail. Also you can't complain because there's an app for this.

Disney: Cars Land Review

Disneyland- the happiest place on earth- just got happier with the addition of Cars Land.
CarsLand is a super cute creation of Radiator Springs.
You can visit the Cozy Cone for some snacks, Flo's for some home style meals, Philmore's for juice and stuff(:, I'm not sure what Ramone's had- I didn't quite make it there. Sarge's Surplus Hut had a variety of trinkets and souvenirs- including a tire hat. Which was ridiculous.
All in all it was so cute. Everywhere you looked was another memory of the movie that made you say "Awwww".
There are rides in Cars Land- so don't worry, you thrill seeking crazies.
The rides were Luigi's Floating Tires, Racers, and the Tractors.
I didn't get a chance to even really see the Floating Tires, but it looked like a teacups type ride, but there were giant beach balls everywhere. Not sure what they're for, but they looked cute.
The tractors ride was really fun to do with my toddler sister who loves cars, but for myself it was a really fast ride for how long the line was.
Now for Racers... Oh goodness. The ride was very very fun and very very cute. It started out by taking a tour through radiator springs. You met sheriff and mater, went tractor tipping and drove down through the shops with the rest of the characters. Then at the end of the street you went to either Luigi's for some white walls or Ramone's for a new paint coat, then ended up side by side with another car. Then, you raced. It was high speed and high fun. It actually wasn't that fast, just fun. And yes, someone actually wins.
The only downfall with this ride is how many times it broke down. Several times while in line the ride would stop, and 3 or 4 times a day it would break completely. I was in the ride after about 30 seconds and an hour line (in the fast pass lane) and it completely broke down and we had to be escorted out of the ride. I was ready to punch someone in the face.
Also, the standby line, because it's so new, is pretty much always at least a
2 hour wait- sometimes up to 4. If you're going to California Adventure for the day, get there WHEN it opens and go STRAIGHT for the Cars Fast Pass distribution because they run out for the day by 9:00am. We got ours at about 8:30an and it was return at 6:00pm.
All in all, I loved the new Cars Land and will definitely be visiting again.
(check out the photos- me and my brother photobombed in the cars racer ride) ;)

Because I get on these FanFiction kicks...

So, I'm a writer. Self proclaimed. I'm not going to claim I'm great- even good- but I do enjoy it and I hope I one day be published.
I'm working on a novel but I do fanfiction stories on the side.
I started a new one today, 3 Quarters Can't Buy You Much. It's about a girl who's the daughter of Poseidon, but the twist is her mother was a demigod too. Hence the 3 Quarters thing.
Interested? Check it out.
Lisamariehourglass is my username. Writing is my game.
Ciao for now.

Call Me Maybe?

So, as you may or may not know, Phebs and I have a YouTube account called Just Dumb. We did a music video to Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away", in which I make an extremely attractive man. I recommend you check it out. The link is on my page.
Anyways, I really want to make a new music video to "Call Me Maybe?" in which I want to look as unattractive as possible- I figure it shouldn't be too hard- and dressed as a nerd.
So I need these.
Bow suspenders? Yes. Please. Ive been wanting some suspenders for a while- both because of a certain role model named Mr. Summers (like the season but twice as hot) and also... Well, I have my reasons. (;

So I feel lame.

Hey, it's Phebee. July 9.
Like I said, I feel lame. Beffy's been off having this super awesome summer and I'm like "yeah...well...I don't do anything."
OK. To be honest, it's not that I don't do anything. I do a lot. It's that I'm doing...normal stuff.

JUNE
I worked as a counselor at a summer camp every week except one, when I went to a Girls' Camp. It's basically a ton of girls camping and griming together for a week. It is so fun. I was a YCL-a Youth Camp Leader, which means I had a YCL partner and together we had 8 girls to babysit all week. I love it. I was the Mama Bear, my buddy was Papa Bear, and our girls used those names religiously the entire week. I don't think they even knew my real name. The highlight of my camp experience was a giant "mud fight" our cabin had-I say "mud fight" because it was pretty much just a lay in the mud, slip and slide in the mud, dog pile in the mud, rub mud on other people, take pictures in the mud, roll around in it...um...time...hahaha. It was so fun.
That's us crazies after the mudfight. Beffy and I are in there... Somewhere...

Also went to the Special Olympics Beffy was talking about, and I loved it SO MUCH. Surrounded by AMAZING, determined, kind people the whole time. Met some people I won't forget. (:
Here's a picture of Beffy and I there. Looking our finest.


JULY
So far I've still been working. Today I started the most amazing job I could ask for. I get to watch the cutest 5th grade girl for 5 hours a day, flexible hours (meaning I come and leave when I want), and I get to GO do stuff with her since I GOT MY LICENSE!!! a couple days ago. Today we went shopping for "dirt cup" supplies: pudding, oreos, gummy worms-so we can make those tomorrow. We made brownies and colored a poster for her brother's "welcome home" party. We made a giant fort. We found a snowcone place and got Tigers' Blood cones-THE BEST EVER <3 She kept asking me to stay longer so I stayed an extra hour (:
I am so excited for this job. I have it this week, and then again all August. I am off the between weeks because I'm taking my Big Trip!!
I'm going to a mountainous South American country to build on to an orphanage and bring joy and love to the sweet little orphans. I AM SO EXCITED. And SO nervous. 9 days to go, wow! That's scary...

Well, I'm going to go look at more beautiful pictures of a delicious work of art. Catch you later. (:
