Jade @ MindSay

EDIT: I bought them both!

 

 

My rose quartz plugs busted the other night. I dropped them in the shower and one split right into two. Is that an omen of some kind? Owen (who makes gorgeous wood plugs by hand) has yet to make me a new pair (waa, waa, busy fixing my car and doing my laundry. Whatever, hehehe) so I've decided to take matters into my own hands.

 

Both of these are from the same seller, and are the same price. I thought about getting both pairs, but chances are I'll wanna go to a bigger gauge (3/4" is the next step - yikes!) by then. Just because, that's what always happens. So, dear mindsay friends, do me a solid and help me decide between the two:

 

Pair #1: Howlite -  is known to bring calmness, attunes the mind to wisdom to help those formulate goals/ambitions and achieve them. They look like this: 

 

Pair #2: Jade - which I'm sure many of you are farmiliar with. It is said to bring the wearer good fortune and MONEY!

 

The howlite was my first choice, just because its so unusual. But I do love jade, it's very classy and would match my personality. Though, I do need equal amounts of help in the money & ambition part of it. Both pairs are $8 each. Shipping is $4, but for both would only be $5... So, one pair would be $13.00, and two pairs would be $21.00. I'd save the extra three bucks in shipping if I just went and bought both. I'm terrible with decisions, especially when it is to purchase something for me.

 

I figure by the end of the day if I haven't made a decision (or my lovely Mindsay friends haven't helped me reach a conclusion), I'll get both. My birthday is coming up (March 7th!) and I deserve a little present. Besides, aren't I worth twenty friggin dollars...?

hey

well today was day 2 of semster 2..it was alot better:) in tech were doing a poster thingy which is cool:) in english it was very boring..were doing stuff about short stories and stuff..i honestly couldnt pay attention. Lunch was fun as always..i kept on saying fruit salad because of a video me and conan know:P lol. Geo was alrite..were doing maps and stuff so it wasnt too bad..besides on of my best friends is in there: sean. Science was good:) i sat beside deedre and jade today..i had work to but i didnt do much cause it was much more entertaining to talk to them:) lol besides i can just do it for homework which i perfer to do(ill explain y in a bit). So overall today was good day:)

 

Anyways i figure the less i hang around my parents the less arguing and insults and less emotional pain ill have. And i figure if i do my work first the less arguments ill have. I kinda laready knew this but i havent really tooken action till rite now..ive been pissed off so much lately..and with me anger turns into sadness and tears..so yea. Honestly id rather feel physical pain than emotional...i realized this a while ago and once i did i realized y sum people cut their wrists and such. Physical pain can go away pretty fast but emotional pian can stay forever. I guess thats just life for u. But thankfully school is part of my life..i love school. Its a place from  home. Honestly im most happy when im with friends or at school. Its like home is hell and school is heaven.. in fact i wrote a poem about this last nite:

 

Heaven and Hell 

Never a happy medium

Aways horrible pain

Or great joy

 

Its either heaven

Or hell

Never going onto supportive ground

 

 

Hell

So much anger

Too much pain

 

Yelling

Anger

Frustration

 

Horrible Emotions

Anger and Sadness

Ending in tears

 

Heaven

My beautiful escape

That holds hapiness

 

Joy

Friendship

Love

 

All of which you can give me

So hold me, kiss me

And love me

 

Because I'm always going to have to go back down

But you you are able to

Make me rise back up

Holy crow! I haven't posted since, like, last month. Woah.
I just got back from vacation; we visited family in Colorado Springs. The first few days we spent camping but we took a break from the pine trees to go to Water World. Nathan, Ben and I waged war against a whole bunch of other kids and basically annihalated(?) them. Then we went down some slides. We were either deathly cold or drastically hot, depending on where we were and how long it'd been since water had been dumped on our heads. I got burnt terribly, and Nathan teased me. My cousin Nathan and my brother Ben, by the way.
In church on Sunday I got stuck in a Sunday school full of nitwits. They didn't like the teacher, and so they talked about the stupidest stuff instead of paying attention until I wanted to scream, "YES, YOU IMBECILE, YOU SPELLED MUTANT WRONG. GET OVER IT" but that wouldn't have been a very good example, so instead I sweetly leaned forward and asked the teacher to repeat the 1kings reference we were all supposed to be looking up. Then I preceeded to glare at the continuing defenders in the back. They were boys, and cute boys at that, so they we very shocked to see a girl glaring instead of fawning. Or whatever those nitwit girls usually do.
 
We hiked up to Barr Camp on Pike's Peak Monday. Along with Dad, Ben, Beth, and me, Dad also invited Nathan and Amaya along. Nathan 1)lives in Colorado and so is used to the air 2) is a runner. Amaya 1)asks too many questions 2)follows your answer with what? and then asks another question. Mountains are very large. But, there was a BOOKSHELF at Barr Camp! Hallelujah! I got mostly through Shade's Children by Garth Nix. Good book, if not a little creepy.  Tuesday we continued on to the top, followed by more questions and jibes from the loveable Miller bunch.
     When we reached the summit we all dropped and did 20 pushups ( I did 6. So shoot me.) and then got our picture taken in front of the summit sign. Then Dad raced us (with our bags still on) over to the lookout, where a monument is dedicated to America the Beautiful. I guess the author was inspired by the view. After catching our breath we sang the first verse in 3-part harmony (no tenor. Nathan still sqeaks~giggle~) and then went inside to order some food while the dimwits who had driven up the mountain stared after us. We stayed up there for a while, and every once in a while the train shows up, drops off 50 people, and then goes back down. These people go to the bathroom, buy a souvenir, buy some hot chocolate, and then get back on the train. They don't even look off the side of the mountain! AHH! What is wrong with these people?

          I'm really sorry you have to sit through all of this, but there really is funny stuff left. So hang on.

       Tuesday night I stayed the night at my cousin Jade's house; her cousin(other side) Brooke was there from Texas. Nice accent, might I add. Erik, Jade's 18 year-old friend, was also over there, but he went to work at 1. In our boredom we decided to play Raptor Tag, which is hide-and-seek on the entire street. Erik and I were on one team, and Jade and Brooke can neither hide nor tag, so we one all but once. Brooke knocked Erik over and he ate cement. It simply wasn't fair. Erik and I were tired and sore, but Brooke and Jade refused to stop playing, so we hid in Jade's kitchen and chatted for an hour before Jade finally texted Erik a "where r u?" He couldn't answer because of low battery or something, but we went outside to give it up anyway.
          We slept outside on the trampoline, but at 6 in the morning the neighborhood dogs all startedto howl. At the same time. I just groaned and turned over, but Brooke stood up and let out a string of 'colorful metaphors', as Spock would call them.
       Wednesday we had planned to take Jade's sister Emily swimming, but that plan sank. Aunt Jen had left some money behind, so we walked the mile to Walgreens and got ourselves some junk food. On the way back Jen called to remind Jade to not spend her money anywhere except the pool. Oops.
       Luckily, or so we thought, Austin lives a few doors down. We hadn't spent the bulk of it, we only needed 5 more bucks than Brooke and I could cough up. Austin's dad was at work and Austin had gone camping, leaving his room locked. But does that stop the fearless Jade? Surely not! Even though it was raining (thunder and lightning, very very frightening oh! Galileo....I'm done.) we got the ladder off the shed by Jade climbing on the motorcycle and pushing it off. I raised it and Jade went up and in after popping the screen out. While she dug for money (and some of her 'borrowed' cd's) Brooke and I had to put the ladder back up. We ended up accepting the neighbor's help. I wish I was  3 inches taller.
          The triumphant team walked home in the rain with 3 dollars and 8 quarters. It works.

We left today with a promise from Jade to yell at Erik for not seeing me off. It was probably better- Dad didn't approve of the eye makeup and large pants. Things are not always what they seem, no, not always what they seem......

starrynite , my best friend Jade is in mourning.

Please, read her entry, and comfort her.

Comment on her blog, and send some love to her.

She is in need of some prayers.

 

This is what we do MindSay, help me with this one.

She means the world to me, and I don't like her being sad.

She is such a good person, and we need to gather together and help her though this time of sadness.

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 

And Jade, i love you angel <3
