everything happens for a reason [08 Nov 2004|08:46pm]
I understood something today. About three (or is it four now? oh yeah, it's four) years ago I was introduced to TOD. Most of us if haven't ever been on there.. heard of it. Back then I wasn't really a writer. I remember my first silly entry about my restaurant trip with my parents to Grande. Then I began writting.. but I wasn't writting for myself. Even when I opened up.. I always wrote for people. I remember my long deep entries (some of them)... and I remember somebody telling me (oh it was Alla!) that we write for "the audience" in places like that.. and today I realized how right she was. Before I thought that yeah, in a way she's right but I'm still writting for me and not for the comments. No, I never wrote for the comments but I needed to let somebody see what's going on in my life.. it wasn't about getting it off my chest..but something else.. something stronger. And I understood it today.

I started a journal last year that I've been able to keep since. I started my book. I tried collecting all my poetry/songs/stories together into in piece. But something was always missing.

When I came back from Riga my journal suddenly turned into Russian. I finally let my feelings flow through the language that I love so much, and respect. Suddenly this year my writtings in my agenda began in Russian and just sometimes english when there was a quote or something from a song. I started quoting in Russian in my profiles.. not caring if others will understand or not. At one point I said to myself, "No, I'm going to go back writting in english." And today I understood why I started the Russian trend.

I spent five hours over at Dasha's house today. I found out horribly news yesterday and I needed to lean on at somebody. Lately she's been the one if it isn't Arisha or Tema. Lately she's been able to open up to me more.. we started talking on the phone more and I just know her more clearly and am able to open up to her. I didn't show in school that something was wrong..although she noticed a little but I said, "It's no biggie" and she goes, "Got the clue." She knew that I didn't want it to be mentioned right now, or didn't want to open up about it. I would've because I'm cool with Vera but I don't want to let Lauren back into my life compleatly as I started letting her in last year.Anyway, off my point here. So I asked her if I could come by for a cup of tea after school. She let me in and we talked for hours and hours. We found out that we share so many similar feelings about life, guys, friendships & so on. It was just so relaxing. She gave me advices about my situation and did not care that I needed to stop a few times because it was hard for me to talk about this. She then showed me a notebook with bunch of quotes & songs from her friend back in Russia. Then we looked through pictures where she had random sayings and greeting cards from her friends back there. I don't know.. suddenly I understood why I started writting in Russian. Dasha... she helped me understand even more then I believe in it.. she made me see how important it is to be YOURSELF in ANY way that it is. It's not about fitting in.. AT ALL, but it's about being just YOU and only YOU. She does it. She doesn't care what others say. She doesn't care that she doesn't have as many friends.. because those who she has are REALLY great people that are always there. I don't think I'll be able to explain what I felt after our talk, but I realized that this bull shit (sorry guys) is just not for me anymore. I used to be at TOD. People used to love reading my entries. And know something? I loved that as well. I started my book and my friends just loved it.. but it was never really for ME. All those sayings in my agenda now.. they are just for ME (even though half of my school IS russian but that's besides the point :P). My profile online has become just for me.. hey half of you can't read it and it's okay (you can always ask :)) because I know why now I have it. And as for my journal next to my bed.. that will be for others in life after I am gone, but today.. no more audience.. it's for me.

Some of you might not understand AT ALL what I just tried explaining but it's okay. This is the last time I wrote for somebody when speaking of my feelings towards things (besides letters & such things of course :P). I've met great people & I love you guys. It's up to you now if you want me in your life in any shape or form.. or not. I won't be mad, I won't scream or yell at you, I won't do a thing but wait for your response by e-mailing me. Besides maybe my psychic twin since he hasn't been around my journal lately (I miss you, Kyle)!

I left TOD. And trust me, that was a step to take. And now it ends here for me. I don't think I'll be back to online journals again. Who knows of course but for now... Au Revoir

you and me... oh my my my [07 Nov 2004|01:52pm]
He told me that long straigh hair is so sexy! When I said I don't care he gave my a puppy face... oh that face.. my my. He loved my new style... was so glad I didn't go blonde.

And if you know me well enough (which many of you don't) you know that now this short hair is going to be growing. I swear, even when I saw I want to do it.. I don't have the patience... but when he says the same thing.. it becomes reality. You know.. it still doesn't make sense to me that we are dating, but it sure hell is understandable to everyone around us by now (besides my mom that tries to ignore the fact of course)... I mean hello, they KNOCK all the time when they know that we are alone in the room... and that "coat" trick yesterday that Arkadij did.. that was plainly cute. I'm still laughing at the "drawer move" and my heart goes awwww to the invitation.

Hm, no one will understand this entry which I find a little funny. Sorry lads!

Ps; Why is she ruining her life? Why can't she just fucking (pardon) stop!!?

Hmm. So I was writting this long entry and then I thought, "But I don't want to write online." So I stopped and now I'll sum all that up just in a few words.

Stayed home sick after the big weekend on Monday and half of Tuesday.
Auditioned on Tuesday (which is why I had to come to school for a few periods)!
Today we got the results.
My coach's crazy because she gave me the part that I was debating on wether I wanted to do instead of an attorney. It's like she read my mind. But she explained me why she gave that part to me and I guess I'm happy now that I'm the doctor and not an attorney. Plus I would never be able to be parthners with that girl :P. And I'll be a strong witness ;).
Alla wanted to hang out tomorrow so I think we might go to Rigewood or something.
There's a party Saturday. I have a feeling this is going to be really intresting.
I plan to make a suprise attack on the A house (A house =Arina & Arti; their last name begins with an A as well) on Sunday.
Arti's been mentioning how much he misses me lots lately.
It makes me feel just a bit... gooood :).
Today he said something that kind of meant a lot to me.
Anyway, I can't fall asleep for some odd reason (and I'm soo tired) so I might do a new layout. Haven't done those in a while (or of course I can study a bit more for my psych test but why would i be so smart and do that?)

i open my eyes and realize that what i want can't be [12 Oct 2004|02:55pm]
How weird is it to miss somebody that you barely know? I just miss seeing his face and just smiling to each other in the hallways. Just a few days passed since I've seen that face and.. suddenly for some reason I miss it. And it's not one of those "oh she has a crush on you" situations, but it's one of those that this kid for some reason looks promising and fun to be around (friendship wise!) Oh you probably all are so lost. I met Serge about two weeks ago. I knew of his existence before and so did he about mine, but we were never really introduced to each other. We met at the Russian Club and had a few good talks and he then ended up entertaining all of us. He's in my grade and is just a smart nice russian guy who everyone seems to love. Since that day we've been always saying hey to each other and trying to drop a joke for a quick second (which works for him and SOMETIMES for me as well). For some reason his face makes a day brighter.. just one of those "good spiritis" that bring positive energy!

I had an amazing weekend. And it was definatly amazing. On saturday I took the SATs. Let's get into that some other time. Then my family and I drove to Arina's house. It was Arina's mom's birthday party on Saturday. It was planned that I stayed. I was supposed to spend the whole Sunday with my grandparents and then on Monday Arina and I had to go to the NYU tour.. so I stayed there the whole weekend.

Met lots of new faces (mostly all Arina's brother's friends who are friendly with the family) and had load of fun. When everyone left Tema entertained Arina and me for hours by showing us all these different clips on his computer and then just some good music. Finally we all decided to go to sleep. That's right, after Val's been beging to let her just sleep and when they compleatly make Val awake they decide to go to sleep. What other order is there? So I'm laying there in bed and thinking what am I going to do because Arina seems to actually want to sleep. About ten minutes later I had Tema come up to me. Long story short, we escaped to his bed and I hanged out there for a "few" hours. We ended up going to bed finally at 3:30-4 am. How else :P? Oh we had a scare though. We heard noise outside our door so I jumped into my bed with Arina (and woke her up kind of lol) and about two minutes later Arina's dad walked in. We all pretended being asleep and then I was freaking out about what if I didn't move back to my spot? But I was quickly calmed down :P.

I got up around 12:20ish and took a long hot shower. Arisha and Tema didn't get up till 1pm (sleepy heads!). By then I was all dressed up and ready to go to my grandparents' house. That's when Arina and Tema started doing exercise. I laughed at all the little comments and what is exercising without Val being thrown up and off Tema's shoulder and etc?! That's what I thought! Anyway, I finally got to my grandma's around 3. My aunt was there with her family as well so we all walked on the board walk. Then when they left grandma and I had a 2 hour English lesson. Oh I thought I was going to fall asleep. She saw that too.. but I held strong and helped her in anyway I could. Then she gave me 50 dollars for my early birthday because I wanted to get this really nice outfit at Mandie's but kind of forgot to get money from my account. Anyway, I got back to Arina's house around 8 p.m. and we all went to eat. During the meal Arina and I (now I know why I didn't know since I wasn't there the whole day but Arina.. oy her) found out that Tema was working the next day and needs to get up at 5:30 a.m. which meant early sleepy time that night.

After diner I went over to the computer to print something out and look at the Mock Trial Case this year. Tema came down stairs and told me good night. I wished him good night as well. Ten minutes later he came downstairs again and goes, "Don't ask but I'm just saying good night again!" I smiled and said good night and oh by the way, bye. "Are you not coming back here after the NYU tour?" he asked me to which I said that I need to go home at some point :P. He gave me a kiss on the lips and told me to come back soon. I told him that it's his turn to come here now (although their house will always be more fun.. but we plan on making it grand the next time they get here). About 15-20 minutes later I went upstairs to finish my home work. Arina was doing her home work and Tema had his eyes closed but I saw that he's listening to music. About 20 minutes later he took off his headphones and decided to go to "sleep", but noticed me and I don't remember how but we started talking. I was really cold so I came up to him and kind of leaned on his leg and realized that he's really warm. He realized how freezing I was and took my hands into his :) to make me warm. Then he pulled me over to him and wraped his arms around me and put down his head saying, "Now I can sleep fine!" Haha. Anyway, he ended up staying up and talking to me (and cuddling :)) until 12:30ish (or more like 1 a.m). My poor darling!

On Monday Arina and I went to NYU tour. That was histerical. Arina and I together.. well we are horrrrible at directions. We got soo lost and ended up walking around in circles trying to find which NYU building we need. Then people gave us different directions and so on.. it was real bad. There were a few funny/embaression moments but that's between us only! Anyway, we were obviously late so they let us go to the next tour. I LOVE NYU. NYU and me are meant to be. Except I became really sad after school because who am I kidding? I have about what, 1% of getting in? All right, maybe a bit more... but not more then 20%. I want that school thought. You don't understand. It's MY place. And if not this time.. I'm going to be there. I want to rip my hair out right now for screwing all my chances during 10th grade? Why, why did everything happen that way back then? Give me back my time!!!!

Oh, Andrei Makarevich (hopefully, most likely) this weekend!!! Not like any of you know who that is but I'm still real excited.

** i'm coming back to you.. my first love [02 May 2004|05:35pm]
I know I am never here but I decided perhaps just at time to time paste in some things that I'm writting at a diffrent place. So here you are, an update on my life <3.

Today is the last day of vacation. It almost feels as it was such a waste.. a waste of the days. But then you remember all the positive things that has happened during those wasting days.. and you remember what or who it made you think about and the vacation becomes so full, maybe even too full. The questions, the decisions.. so much involved in just one week. For some even you might walk out as a diffrent person. For me, not diffrent but maybe starting to really grow up. But in the end I am just sixteen and there is so much more to learn.

Yesterday was a lovely day. Yesterday was a terrible day. How can the two combine? I guess that's what life for you is. So yesterday was the marked day, May 1st, SAT day. Except it became unmarked for me, and not an SAT day at all. The nigh before, right before I went to bed I got on collegeboard.com to print out my admission ticket and.. I was not signed up. Right now it is all very confusin because I know for sure that I signed up almost two months ago! I went histericall because let me tell you.. I am sick of this test and was so ready do be done with it. Then I watched a movie (Romeo Must Die) and went to bed around three am. In the morning my mom woke me up and I told her the story. She yelled, I cried some more and yadda. So I blame it all on my dad and he blames it all on me. But in the end... whoever did it..did it and there is nothing to do about it anymore but take the next test. There go my plans..

Dan got back from his dad's yesterday. We planned to go see a movie, 13 going on 30. It was an exciting meet and at the same time I was so nervous. After all this was the first us being alone after I broke up with him. We walked to the movies (30 minutes walk) which was actually a good decision.. we needed to melt any ice that was around us. It was an ackward but the right walk. We fought a little (playingly of course), laughed, made fun of each other and so on. At time to time we walk hand in hand which was ackward for us both.. I could feel it but then I realized that I've walked with just friends that way.. it's a normal thing after all. The movie was a sweet movie. It was not as bad as I though it could be at first, Jennifer made an amazing job. If you love her, you have to go see it and not care about the remakrs that are made, "But she's our ALIAS girl, she kicks butt and is not a teenager." Read up an interview fans, this is the real Jennifer.. in the movie. She said it herself. And I of course loved the movie because it involved a lot of fashion as always :P. After the movie we sat on some steps and just talked for a little while. We were in an adventorous mood so we turned on a diffrent street from what we usually turn. Then we decided to walk on the railroad tracks. Oh my, I never knew that I could be that scared! I kept on turning around and I was the first one to hear the train (it was far away still.. loser I am) and I freacked out. Dan could not hear it at first and told me I'm crazy but then he heard it. We stepped away from the railroad tracks a little into the "forest" and I was still scared haha. After two trains passed us and a long hug from Dan.. I think I calmed down. It was a fun walk because we found all these weird places and wanted to check it out..then I'd get scared..then he'd take my hand..we'd walk through it and realize it was nothing. Haha, fun times. We hugged as we departed and went our seperate ways. A second later I turned around and sighted. It felt so sad inside and yet so right.


When I came back home my father was about to watch a movie, Extraordinary Gentlemen (or something along those lines). I always sticked around to watch it so I decided to stay. It was a movie with all these characters from diffrent Romances mixed in. The books of my parents' youth. I only knew a few characters (knew as in heard the names.. didn't know the stories behind it mostly) and I fely so ashamed. After the movie my dad went to bed and my mom and I had a very long talk. We talked about boys, education.. life. After dating Dan I finally understood her and her views on a boy friend. Really, are we trying to get married? I never judged her and zillion amount of boys she had around her all the time during youth (and still some now)... but I always thought that it just doesn't make sense. I'm sorry if some might not agree with my views right now but this is my diary (well not entirely mine, but we all know what I mean) and I think I am allowed to write anything I want to in here. After all that is what is said on the front page my dears, exit out if you do not wish to read. But in any case.. at age such as ours we should be still having fun. Getting invovled with one person.. isn't it a little ridicilous.. just a little? My mom when she was my age had a boy on every case. She knew exactly who'll go with her to the movies, who will go to the museum, a night walk and so on. "I had a boy for each event and to tell you the truth, it was very comfortable because I knew that he was enjoying himself and I was enjoying myself," she said, "And what's so bad about liking many guys at one time? You so young..and beautiful.. you do not need to fall in love with each and every boy... don't limit yourself.. take away the boundaries and make friends." After we decided that a tittle for a boy friend basiclly says that you are allowed to be kissing with only one guy and only him..she said, "And what if I want to kiss more then just one guy? A kiss is a kiss and you are not married yet. You'll have a life time of being devoted to only one guy.. I remember when I met your father many boys dessapeared.. why begin with that?" For many perhaps it wont make much sense everything I have just said but it does to me, and that's what matters the most. A few days ago I said, "I want to try just dating, nothing serious." and now I understand exactly why.

Oh and about the ashamed factor. That's it. I'm going to start making something of myself. I don't care that I still have SATs coming up.. I'm going back to karate and my first love... art.

Good day kids.

update: but of course.. i was wrong. he thought it was a date. well he wasn't 100% sure but yeah.. it's a long story right now.. and i want to get to bed. i guess i just wanted to say that maybe i was wrong.. u can't have a friendship after a relationship...actually you can that is if both sides want that and not trying in any way possible get the other person back. oy vay
