Haiti: what a disaster

Look, I'm telling you right now to donate. Donate clothes, food, toiletries and money to help out the haitians. They really need it more than we do. It's seemed like all us Americans have only been focusing on our financial troubles this past years. Its a rare day when we see past our own catastrophes and see how many people arent worrying about getting a job, their worried about starving and where they'll be sleeping tonight. We are very lucky and priveleged, and we can take that for granted sometimes. Like someone once said "there is no great loss without some small gain." and if there is something good about this situation is that it makes us realize just how fortunate we are to have that hot meal, to be able to fill a glass from the sink and know we won't get sick from drinking it. I've blogged about the most trivial things, and this is the most important thing I've blogged about. I decided that its time to write about something useful, so donate, please donate. If you're still not sure look up pictures of whats happening in Haiti and I guarantee you'll start collecting cans. Once again, donate.

Got new socks..

Yup, I got 3 new pairs of socks at Target yesterday. Two of them are fuzzy and blue and green. The other pair is brown, but it's openworked so you can see the blue ribbing. The tops have blue velvet bows. *sigh* The fuzzy socks are soo soft. I'm wearing them as I type.
And guess what! I took the chance to check out Rodarthe. It has this white dress with tiny red flowers all over it. Its so cute I want to plan a party just so I can wear it. :)
Honestly, I'd use any excuse to throw a party at this point. Maybe I can have an after midterm party..Oooh! That's a good idea! I'll have to check with my mom, but she'll probably say yes.
I'll have to buy invites, make a music list... It's going to be so much fun!
You can see that I love planning for parties. It's just so exciting!
This is why I love blogging. I get the best ideas while I write. Well I'm going to go compile a playlist. Bye!
Love,

Happy Birthday mom!

There are good and bad things to write about today. On the good side, my friend got asked out and I realized that I'm over my crush. On the bad side, I almost forgot my moms b-day and did you hear what happened at palm springs middle school? It's disgusting. What a sicko. Like my sister says, he's one sick puppy. I don't care if there was consent from the girl. He knows better than to go and have intercourse with a minor. If they really cared about each other they would've waited.
More importantly, I almost forgot my beloved mother's birthday! I feel a mix of emotions. I feel sadness, shame, and... well I guess the only word for it is that I feel sorry. I can't believe myself! I have the nerve to forget the woman who raised me. And what makes it worse is that if I go die in a hole like I feel like doing, she'll miss me. I don't deserve her.
To my mom, I love you! I'm sorry, so sorry. I love you, love you, love you!
Love,

Back-to-school time. Yay.

School can be great, but seriously.There is waay to much of it. If you're under 18 you're entire life is centered around school. It never really ends, you just take breaks from it. But since most people my age are focused on the miniscule aspects of their life they never take time to see the big picture. And that is that, newsflash, life is school, no matter how you slice it. You attend it, you schedule around it, you plan for it. Even if you don't care about it, you still have to go to it and get punished for getting bad grades. All in all, it's pretty daunting to see how much of our lives are entwined with school.
And speaking of that house of horrors, winter break ended and we're back in school. Yippee. It was freezing today, which was wonderful, but that also meant wearing a bulky coat, gloves and long socks, giving it the feel of being packed away. All morning I was saying hi to my friends. After that ,however, things got quiet. Well, I got quiet. I don't know whats wrong with me. If I'm only with a friend or texting (or blogging), I have a lot to say, but when I'm in a crowd I'm dull and quiet. I have to give dibs to one of my best guy friends who's always talking to me even when there are more interesting people around, always trying to lure me out of my quiet shell. A lot of thanks to him, for making my day a bit less terrible. :)
If anyone has advice for me, I'd be glad to hear it. Please comment.
Love,
Vikki

In response to a comment, yes I am. Get over it.

Happy B-day friend I will not name!

Yay! Its her birthday and I'm so happy! She has one of the best and worst birthdays ever. Its on New years eve, which is really cool, except that if she had her party on her birthday no one would be able to show up. This time however, she's having the party this Saturday. Yay!
I've been pondering the gift I want to give her. You may want to know what those things are, but since she reads this blog, my lips are sealed.
By the way, if you've been to target lately you've probably seen that they have a new brand. It's called Rodarthe, which I've never heard of before but the word sounds all cool and designer-y. I checked it out online and the clothes are pretty amazing, too. They have some lace tights I am dying to have. (lol, I sound plastic don't I? I just can't seem to help it..) I really hope the tights come in a size small enough to fit my chicken legs. Seriously, I am tiny. No joke. People have asked me if I'm anorexic before (I am not). Which seems like a ridiculous question after they've seen me eat (what can I say? When I gotta eat, I eat). Speaking of eating, I made a 'magic cookie bar' today, and the smell of chocolate is beckoning me. Once again, Happy Bday friend I will not name!
Love,
Vikki <3
