RIP Bandit

A tribute to Bandit. A companion for my father for 10 years, and one of my oldest and greatest friends. He died yesterday and I will forever miss him. He was 15 years old and when we first got him he was so young and active we nicknamed him "Puppy". My father noticed he was sick the day before he died and when he came down the stairs yesterday morning there was Puppy lying on the bottom of the stairs. My father thinks he died early that morning. My father told me about he had spent Wednesday curled up on the floor with Puppy just relaxing. When my father first got him Puppy was wild and reckless and he always needed to be on leash. Now he can walk into the supermarket with him off leash. He was such a good boy!! He would eat everything. He used to eat hot dogs covered in hot sauce and beg for more.One time, he got into the medicine cabinet and just licked the sugar coating off the pills!! We had so any good times and good memories. Bandit was a husky, so he shedded a lot and he used to get puffs o loose hair sticking out of his coat. I would SOO OCD over his fur coat. Every time I saw him I had to make sure there was no loose hair. He was the most beautiful dog and he will be missed forever.

Sorry I am so fucking mad right now because it won't let me put a picture up.

Day 1

   I survived my first day! Yayyy! It was pretty easy going. All my teachers are nice so far. I have only met 1 or 2 that don't look or sound like they are very fun. I need fun teachers who keep it interesting, or I am at risk of sleeping in class. This would be bad, mostly because I snore. I take chorus and I have that first block with a lot of my friends. I have a full block study hall with one of my best friends (xD).
    I love books. Call me the biggest nerd ever but I do. I love this photo of the book hugging the girl because I can easily relate to it. A good story can reach out and grab your attention or give you a hug and reassure you.
   I especially love the smell of old books. I don't know why I just love finding an old book and flipping through its pages, to have that wonderful smell leak into my nose. Leak? I couldn't think of a better word, but that ones still pretty bad.

Love ya,
Alise

Procrastinate

Hey guys!
   Two more days till school starts!! I'm really excited! I haven't finished my summer reading though. I'm in Enriched English so we have a different assignment than everyone else. I have to read a nonfiction book about bones, write an essay on the origin of language, and answer four paragraphs. I probably should be doing that considering I'm halfway through the book, almost done with the essay and haven't even started on the questions. I'm a huge procrastinator xD. PROCRASTINATORS UNITE... Tomorrow...The books are due back to the library the day I go back to school. I would renew them, but the fact that they are due then may motivate me to do my homework. I found this photo and I thought it was cute yet sad.
I'm off! Tootles! Au revior! Adios! Bye! See-ya! I think you get the point...

Changes

   School is starting up again! I have nicknamed the summer of 2012 The Summer of Changes. The most easily recognized change is moving top Tim's. We are almost done, just a few more things and we'll be fully moved over here. We just started painting my room, it's like a gray. The saddest thing would be Shauna and Taffy's deaths. RIP girlies. Another obvious change would be High School. My first day is September 5th. Welcome Freshman Class of 2016 to Thomas High School!! Encase it wasn't obvious I am a freshman. Our class color is blue, so come spirit week freshman hall will like a sea of swirling blues. I'm not as nervous as you would think though... Considering I have 3 older brothers, a mom who works in the school, AND Tim works in the other high school in the district, I know most of the things I need to. Oh and Leith got a girlfriend! Shocking, right?! Her name is Julia and she's pretty cool.
So here goes nothing. HIGH SCHOOL WATCH OUT!! ALISE IS COMING!!

later guys <3 br="br">

I screen-shotted this from Taylor Swift's Fifteen music video. I also liked this photo though:

Tim

   So since February my mom has been dating this guy named Tim. Like a month or two before school starts she announces that sometime during the summer we will be moving to his house. Great right? NO. I don't like Tim. I very much dislike Tim. And so naturally everyone asks me "Why don't' you like Tim?" and I finally found the biggest most truthful answer.
   Now of course there is the little obvious stuff: he woke me up from my nap, the way my mother acts around him, he has a cat, ect. Then there is stuff like: after we buried Shauna and I put on my necklace (Shauna's dog tags) and came outside Tim made a joke about it and Mom joined in, I made a cup at Color Me Mine and it was mine and now its at Tim's (just appeared nobody asked me) and THEY ARE USING IT, ma says she wants to make it comfortable for me at Tim's and I have complained time and time again about the deer heads (2 deer heads and one skull) and they say "oh well. Deal with it". But here is the big real truthful reason: (I have two stories to help explain this) When Hunger Games first came out I asked my Mom "Can we go Ma?" and she replied with "No because Tim doesn't like that sort of stuff." I got REALLY mad at her for that. She assumed Tim would go. She is always telling me "We don't spend enough time together anymore" or "I miss you", but whenever we do spend time together she almost always brings Tim. When she is with Tim she is completely absorbed in him. They are lovey dovey, holding hands and kissing. I always ending up being a third wheel and feeling alone. I HATE that I could EVER feel alone when I'm with my mother. I HATE that my best friend, who I thought was supposed to always be on my side, likes him. I HATE that she KNOWS I dislike him and yet she still INSISTS I move into HIS house with HIM. I HATE that my brother like and respect him. I HATE that it feels like he is bribing me with Dr Pepper and she is bribing me with my new laptop she got me. I HATE that they think I'm sooo (I can't explain it)-ish that I would accept a bribe like that and just start liking him. I HATE that I have only met one other person in my family that doesn't like him, and that is my brother's girlfriend and she doesn't like the effect he has on my brother. So every Sunday we dinner at my grandmothers right? And every dinner I cut up the lettuce and cucumbers and made salad. I love salad and it was MY thing that I did every Sunday. Well mother started bringing him to our weekly dinners. Well TIM likes purple lettuce salad. So instead we bought the purple salad that comes in a bag and just dumped it in a bowl and served it. After a couple weeks we stopped having salad all together! Now this didn't hurt really. I miss the salad and all but I dealt with it. What bothered me more was the principal behind it. I HATE that I had something and then he came along and everyone changed it to what he wanted.
   My salad went from:

Hey guys! School is out! My mom bought me a laptop! Summer has been really fun so far. I stay at my grandma's during the summer and help her out. I love her though so its not like I'm forced to, in fact, i choose to come and stay with her. My oldest and greatest friend died May 19th so things have been kind of sad. Her name was Shauna and she was my dog. She was eleven when she died but her birthday was this past sunday. I love her and miss her with all my heart. She wasn't the smartest dog but she was kindest and friendliest dog i have ever met. RIP baby girl <3 Now since I threw out a tribute to Shauna I should also mention Taffy. Taffy was a Spaniel and she was also a great friend of mine. She died a Saturday in June. It as either the 9th or the 2nd (more likely the 9th). She was grandmother's dog but i was still very close to her. RIP Taffy <3 Here is Starry Night by Van Gogh:

Believe

You wanna know why I love movies and books like Narnia and Harry Potter?
Because they take me away to somewhere happy
They teach me that there is a solution to every problem, even the hard ones
They tell me that no matter how bad it it gets i have to hold on
They tell me that in the end everything is going to be okay
They tell me good always triumph evil
You wanna know why I believe in magic??
Because I have to
I have to know that this isn't it, that theres something else out there thats beautiful and that nobody can explain it
I have to know that someday maybe, just maybe, i could be swept off to Hogwarts or camp half blood
I have to know that there is something worth living for in this world...
