Ben's Journal!

wow...long time no livejournal...

2008-01-03T02:18:19Z

Ok so I havnt been on livejournal in a really long time, and I'm not sure that thats a good thing...

so lots of things happened lately that I cant really post on facebook, or else people will get upset...

I recently asked a girl out and she gave me the ever predictable (and a bit annoying) "I dont really want to go there, but I still want to be friends"...I'm not exactly sure how I feel about it yet, and I'm kinda glad...So far I've made sure that I am constantly busy so I dont feel about it...I was so sure, but evidently wrong...

just had to get that out, I dont think many people will read this (I dont care), but I just had to empty my head and get it out...

I Hate English!

2006-10-24T19:22:09Z

yeah, so mrs. walker is the DEVIL! today we had an open note quiz and she noticed that i didnt have my notes out...so she walked behind my desk as watched me take my test! then after i turned in my test she gave me a lecture on how if i dont start doing my notes im going to fail at life...she assumed that i didnt take any notes and that i didnt just have them in my locker...she assumed which we all know makes her an @##!!!!!!

sry 'bout that, just had to vent...

me

im so proud of myself...yet still angry

2006-09-23T15:16:45Z

yeah so today i sent a letter! i had to write a letter to a company about their product(i chose Monster energy drinks) and then we had to send it using snail-mail.its so weird not using the internet...snail-mail is so stupid that it should be illeagle except to recieve magazines...wait...scratch that...i can read magazines on the internet...WHAT IS THE POINT OF SNAIL-MAIL!?!...now instead of instantly getting a reply from california, i have to wait several weeks for them to recieve it, read it, reply to it, and sent it back! if you need to send a package, use UPS...becaus they are better than fed-ex...if you dont believe me go to...

...itll show you photographic proof that UPS is better than fed-ex...

marshmallow and the kitten (beauty and THE BEAST!)

2006-09-14T19:10:58Z

my cat is an evil cat...she was a barn cat and had to hunt for herself when she was young...so now anytime you tick her off...she bites you...she used to claw us but we got her declawed for our protection...i decided to make some hot chocolate ( i know its weird but i like hot chocolate all year long ) when i got out the marshmallows my cat jumped up onto the table and started to attack me...she wanted those marshmallows bad! for ten minutes she kept following me around, her eyes begging me to give her a marshmallow...so when i finally did...she wasnt quite sure what to do with it, or how to eat it...so she started chewing on it, then spit it out...then started chewing on it again...it was really funny to watch her look at me as if to ask "what do i do with it now?"

me

oh wow im amazed...

2006-09-01T14:10:59Z

today i was really bored so i started working on my 'catching item off my elbow' thing and i managed to catch five dollors and twenty cents in change...thats twenty quarters and twenty pennies...

me

ohhhhhhhhhhh...so its a girl house!

2006-08-31T23:02:48Z

sry but i thought that line was very amusing...

yesterday i got up very early, drove for three hours (packed with annoying outbursts on how badly i drive...which is not true...i am a very good driver but they freaked out everytime i made a mistake due to there bad directions...) to calvin to drop jeremiah off, got to help jj fix up his dorm, said goodbye, drove another three hours back, laughed at the bandos as i passed them in my amazingly cool mini-van, and then watched scrubs...they were cool

today i went bowling! i havnt done that in a long time but it was fun...when we first got there we were an hour early so we shot marshmallows at each other and blew up some diet pop! then we went bowling...i did better than kristen and andrew by one and two points...then went home and watched tv...

its been fun...if tomorrow doesnt finish me off ill be amazed...i get to go camping and it should get very boring...especially since nobody else will be there...

me

wow im bored...

2006-08-24T15:36:46Z

okay so i went to bored.com and i tried out a prank site to get some laughs, oddly enough, the funniest thing i found was the disclaimer...

okay so today is the day i get to go to london. since our cars dont hold all six of us we have to take a bus to the train station...wigen to london. we will spend the night in london and in the morning we will take another train to paris, where my family will be at my mercy. sarah and jonathon sorta speak french but they keep forgetting what means what...so im gonna be the translater...then when we get back on saturday, we get to meet up with the sonnenburgs! (sorry i dont remember how to spell their name!) so the basic trip for from now until saturday will be: wigen to london to paris to london to wigen! sad to say that it is only about five thirty at home and its about ten thirty here...

until we meet again

hello people of America!!!!!!!

2006-06-26T18:22:27Z

yes it is I...ben writing to you people from across the ocean...the keypads here are so weird...everything is in the wrong place...i have been very busy doing absolutely nothing...over here it is about seven fifteen, but you guys are still at two fifteen! i think it is very strange that i can be fully awake here at three in the morning, but it usually catches up with me when i wake up at noon...everything here is so tiny...i dont know how people live over here...these people dont even have a dishwasher! or a dryer! plus i keep bumping my head into the ceiling all the time! plus everything is backwards...they drive on the wrong side of the rode and the light switches are upside-down! but these people do have one very amusing thing...they dont have pg-13 movies, or R rated movies...they have PG, PG-12,PG-15, and PG-18...plus jonathan just turned thirteen and showed it by acting as immature as possable...oh well...i gotta go now but ill write later...mostly because writing letters doesnt look like itll work out...

me!

yesterday was valentines day...(way to go captain obvious)...i really didnt do anything special...i had plans but they were foiled!(Curses!) ive been listening to my ipod alot more often than usual...and ive found that i can just listen to it for a little while then i can play it not perfectly but pretty darn well! last band practice was pretty awsome! i started playing harder beats without even thinking about it...it was exciting...or maybe it was just the monster energy flowing through my veins...it was pretty cool!

im so sick and tired of not being able to see my entries...all i can do is update and look at the ten most recent comments...tres ammusant n'est pas? non!!!

otherwise im good...im free this afternoon except for a trumpet rehersal for solo and ensemble, and babysitting my little siblings...

saturday i have solo and ensemble which should go alright. most likely not though...

sunday just have the usual stuff going on so it should be pretty boring...

part four of plan A isnt going so well though(confusing isnt it?)

2006-01-25T12:25:26Z

okay so i wont be able to see this entry again because the computers are being stupid!

im thinking about making a new livejournal just to see if i wont be restricted from it...

okay so now im getting ideas...

yesterday was the pep assembly and afterwards i watched the drum line play...oh man i felt like the worst drummer in the world...then when i went home i decided to play my drums to make myself feel better...i figured out this one drum beat that ive been working on for months, but then i forgot it the next time i sat down to play...then my little brother came down and started to watch me play...it made me feel better that he was amazed at my playing...

ducktape!
