Happy New Year!!!

Yes, I realize it's actually January 2nd right now, but HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Sorry for the distinct lack of frequent posts.
So... hmm... what to post??? Oh, yes. What exactly I was doing the moment 2012 began in the Midwestern time zone. Reading Goliath by Scott Westerfeld, of course! I don't know about you, but I think it was a great way to start the year. I hope the trend continues...
Aren't you proud of me? I cleaned the basement today, completely of my own accord. Neither one of the parents or siblings told me to. I just did. And it took about two hours... I felt good about it afterwards because I'd done something productive (You'll notice that pattern in me. I do something productive, and I feel good. I do nothing, I feel like a bum-rag covered in clart.) I did it mostly because I ordered Just Dance 3 for the Wii, which is downstairs, and I want my whole family to be able to play it, including my mom, who's a neat freak. Love you, Mommy!
Then I got all creative and decked out my new notebook, steampunk style. Don't know what steampunk is? Think early 1900s with very elaborate, showy contraptions. It involves lots of gears and spinning things. Google it. Anyway, the way I decorated my notebook was by drawing lots of gears and taping them on the front *hums "Just glue some gears on it (And call it steampunk)" [Good video by the way. Youtube it]* Then I wrote "Steampunk" in really fancy, steampunk-ey letters. You can check it out on my other blog, whose URL is http://wriblogster.blogspot.com/ Also, if you have read the Leviathan Trilogy, feel free to read the 6 chapters of my FanFic I have posted. If not, SPOILER ALERT!!!
Ugh. I get my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow morning. And tomorrow also happens to be the day school starts again. Usually I would say "Cool! I don't have to go to school!" but now that I'm in High School, I have semester tests, which you have a chance to opt out of a few of if you miss less than 3 days. So you can see how I would be compelled to go to school... Barking Spiders! I'm definitely not going tomorrow, and probably not Wednesday, so I basically need a perfect attendance 2nd semester or I'm SOL. Grrr...
So, without further rambling: Goodnight! I may or may not write again tomorrow!
