My name is Samantha and I usually go by Sami. I'm a total dork, crazy and random. Yeah, I'm pretty awesome ^_~
Some facts about me:
My birthday is December 21, 1991.
My parents are divorced, and I just refer to my dad as Donnie. And sometimes my mom as Sherry, depends on if we're fighting or not.
I have a younger sister and an older sister. My younger sister used to have an account on theO but she has abandoned us XD
I live in Ohio.
I'm a Christian.
I've had problems with depression so occasionally things can get a little dark here. But I'm doing much better now.
I go to an AMAZING church. I can't get there very often, but I go whenever I can.
I do not have a boyfriend as of yet. But I'm in the market ;p
I am very random. VERY. Crazy and I love it. So be prepared ^^
I like to write fanfics and random stories. I have a fanfic on my other world and it will be finished eventually, I swear!! Just... Don't hold your breath, ne?
I love music.
I've been home schooled since the tenth grade and recently graduated high school.
I have a kitty named Artemis. He's my baby and he's what helped me through my depression the most.
I babysit and I like to talk about the baby and post pictures because while I may not have the "math gene" I definitely got a double dose of the "mothering gene."
My email is [email protected] if you want to email me. Please do, because I never get email. BUT ABSOLUTELY NO CHAIN MAIL!!!

Yo, peoples

I edited my introduction if you'd like to take a look. I put that I recently graduated high school because I graduate in a week and I didn't want to go back and change it again.
I'm so sleepy. I stayed up late last night finishing I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou. I will not be reading it again. There will be no book review for it. If my mother did to me what her mother did, I could not be held responsible for what I did to her and no jury in the world would convict me. NEVER has a book made me sob like that.
I'm watching my cat run around and be stupid. He's on crack, I swear. We need to get him some catnip. What we have now is old and dried out and has no potency. He barely glances at it.
My mom and I have been getting along really well lately and we went shopping the other day. Guess who has new Tinkerbell jammies :D We popped into the new Half Price books. Since it's brand new they were having a 20% off sale to get people interested. Half price AND 20% off?? I got good deals! I bought a Cicely Mary Barker fairy book and the handbook to Vampyre for myself, and a book about dragons for my best friend. When I have my graduation party she's spending the night, so I'll give it to her then.
Meh. Short post. But I want to take a nap XD

Today's Random Thought: If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.

Alicia


This is the entire post. I just wanted to show off little Alicia that I babysit :)

I'm a babysitter, not an idiot

So Sam, who is the (platonic) roommate of the father of the baby I babysit now wants me to watch her son this summer. For free. I'm insulted, I really am. She knows Tim pays me. I've met her son, and he's a sweetheart, but he's also a seven year old boy who is, like most seven year old boys, very hyper and doesn't like to listen. I've never watched a child his age. I'm not sure I could handle them both at once since little Alicia is very particular about being held until she falls asleep. And some days, like this morning, she doesn't sleep. So I really couldn't do much of anything with the boy, he'd just have to basically sit in front of the TV. Plus the rest of my family is still asleep and I don't tihnk I could keep him quiet. AND I would charge more for watching an older kid anyway, it's more difficult! So I don't know what Sam's been smoking, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to be telling her no. The only thing is that she's a real jerk. She's been pretty nice to me so far but I'm afraid she won't be so nice if I tell her no. I need to talk to Tim and get some advice so I can say no in a way that won't cause a blowout. Wish me luck :/
In other news, I went shopping for stuff for my graduation party. Plates, cups, balloons. Got a really nifty scrapbook that I like a lot. I'm looking forward to the party :) But one person told my sister that she's coming, but hasn't RSVP'd to me or my mom by text, phone, or the event page I set up on Facebook. People annoy me. I have to make sure my camera is charged, I'll need lots of pictures for my scrapbook and to send to my friend Janet because she can't make it.

Today's Random Thought: I'm so cool, it hurts a little bit.

Knitting

This post is also known as I'm Going to Freaking Stab Myself With These Needles Because Knitting in the Round is Insane!!
I'm knitting a little doll. His name is Beauregard, and I have half of his head done. And somehow gave myself a blister. From knitting. How is that possible? Anyway, I'll post a pic of Beauregard when he's done. Don't hold your breath. Although I'm doing a lot better than when I tried to knit socks.
I have only four days of high school left. It's a scary thought. I'm still scared about college, but I think I've decided to take classes next semester instead of this semester. Which means I now have to call the college and sort everything out. Stabbing myself with those knitting needles is sounding better and better.
My grandma got a gift card to Cracker Barrel for Christmas, and hasn't used it yet. So today for lunch we're going to Cracker Barrel. Soon, I hope. I'm starving.
I went to the dermatologist yesterday and got some ointment for my eczema. I HATE ointment! I can't use it during the day because I can't do anything with it on. I figured I would be okay using it on my face during the day and on my hands at night, but I put it on hours ago and it's still just sitting all gross on my skin and I can't scratch my face. Which maybe is the point. But it's gross. So I'm going to use my Cort-aid cream during the day and the prescription stuff at night. And I don't care what the dermatologist thinks because she was rude anyway.
My graduation is June fifth. We're going to have a little ceremony at my house and then a party until 5:00. Should be fun, but one of my friends is out of town, and two live out of state. They were going to try to come but can't make it. Sad Sami

Today's Random Thought: It'll be funnier than a penguin playing a banjo.

Being 18 sucks

Sorry I've been gone so long. Lots of stress, mostly about college. I don't really want to go into it though or I'll probably start crying.
I haven't drawn anything in a VERY long time. I want to draw but I don't know what. Plus our scanner is broken so I wouldn't be able to submit it anyway. I also need to work on my fanfic that I was posting but stopped... I haven't forgotten about it, I just don't have the time to work on it. I don't have time to work on my novel either. And that needs to get done, I want to have it published before I go to college. If I go to college.
I had a strange dream earlier today when I took a nap. I was on a plane and I was supposed to make it crash. I don't know why. But someone else did it first. It felt very real and I was even praying in the dream, which doesn't happen very often. Everyone on the plane lived through the crash and we landed somewhere in China. Maybe I've been reading too many scary stories?
I started watching the movie Nosferatu online about a week, two weeks ago. I had twenty minutes left in the movie and I could not sit there anymore. I was horrendously sick. I had a massive sinus infection, it was so awful. Everyone around here is getting sick. But anyway, I recommend that movie. It's a great classic horror film, awful effects and all. But it was made in 1922 so that's understandable. The only things I didn't like were that her name is NOT Nina, it's MINA! That pissed me off to no end. And Harker acted like he was on drugs. I wasn't sure whether to laugh or be afraid. Also, obvious vampire is obvious. And hilarious.

Today's Random Thought: Whenever I'm sad, I just stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story.
