My laptop broke. The keyboard and mouse both stopped working. It sucks. I have way bad luck with my electronic devices. Such as my cell phones. One found its way into a bowl of water. Another in to my washing machine and then my dryer! I had an MP3 player actually survive my washer and dryer. Another one of my MP3 players survived falling off a two story building, dumped into water, and my dog attacking it. Alas, time was its downfall. I had a laptop before this most recent one that was short-circuitted. My dog chewed on the power cord, and it corroded down to the point where the resistence stopped and it blew it up my motherboard. Bad luck! I have no idea if I can fix it or not. I wonder what happened. I turned it on yesterday and the keyboard and mouse wouldn't work. The laptop started just fine, but this time when I started it, since the keyboard wouldn't work, I couldn't get past the log-on screen. Well, I had an ace up my sleeve. I turned it on and off 5 times which sets the laptop to start-up recovery mode. Basically it is a safe mode that fixes all the basic problems with software and hardware when you do something stupid. Well after sitting at this recovery mode for ten minutes, it comes back and says, "There is a problem with your start-up, please click yes to continue." CLICK!?!?!? How in the heck am I suppose to click yes when the mouse won't work? Thanks for telling me there is a problem, but if the problem prevents me from clicking yes how in the heck is it suppose to fix it? It sucks...

So I Need to Blog
I haven't blogged in a long long long while. My life kinda went KABOOM!!! Well now I need to blog!
"Luck is on my side," Tom gleefully said. "Is it really," Bob retorted, "Look you just stepped on gum!" Luck is all about perspective. I have luck, but I call luck by its true name, attitude. Attitude makes the world what it is. Luck, attitude, and chance make my life go round. Luck is like Oreos, it seems rough around the edges, but it has an awesome center.
Luck is perspective, and luck is attitude. With control over these two attributes, you can effectivly make your own luck. Unlike chance, luck can be controlled. With the right perspective you can turn the worst situation, regardless how bad it may seem, into the happiest thing ever. Attitude affects how you see things. With a good attitude anything can seem good. It is like putting paper under a red light. Once the white paper is under the red light, it becomes red.
Remember what you have learned about luck. It is about perspective, attitude, and sometimes even just about your standpoint. Luck is something many people wish they could control. What they don't realize is that all they need to do is change their attitude. Luck is like a bird to most people, it flys where it wants whenever it wants.

1, 2, 3, LIFT!!!
Oh my! BLAH!!! The Viennese Waltz is all about lifting and spinning, spinning while lifting, and lifting then spinning. Can anyone else see why I'm so blah! It is fun, don't get me wrong, to do the viennese waltz, but it can be quite tiring. You have to move super fast and spin and lift!!! At least I am super lucky, my partner is light! And I am buff! Haha! Honestly, I have no idea what the other couples will do. Our routine is very over the top, and quite honestly I think we will be the only ones actually doing the lifts! I hope so, it will make us stand out. Dancing is so crazy. Crazy, crazy, crazy! After looking up some facts I found something interesting. In a true Viennese Waltz the couple never stops turning. Not once. Pretty crazy huh? I hope I don't throw up from being dizzy.

Tomorrow Is Just Another Day For You To Lose
Well, that title isn't very fitting for me. On Saturday, my dance partner and I, had a Cha-Cha competition. We had to come up with our own routines and perform them infront of a huge crowd of kids. (This was a church dance thing) So of course my ballroom dance partner and I entered. We had no idea for what was coming up. They gave us four songs to pracitice to so we thought we got to pick one to compete on. WRONG! We had a routine about 3:15 long, well the song they chose was about 1:30...YIKES!!! We had to make up stuff on the fly. We had to talk to each other while dancing and keeping our feet in order to keep up. In the end we were able to hit some sort of finishing pose. All we could do is hope that half of our normal routine would impress them enough to win. We missed so much of our neat stuff I thought we were out for sure. Believe it or not, we still won. Crazy, huh? Honestly, as one of my friends put it, that was pro. It was awesome to dance infront of all those kids. My dance partner had the most awesome costume! It was all sparkley and completely awesome! It was the best costume by far. I had a silver silk tie! Pretty neat huh? Next month they are holding a Waltz competition! I can't wait!

You Might Think I'm Happy, But I'm Not Gonna Be Ok!
I am so tired lately. My diagnosis of the problem: insomnia. I spend hours just under my blankets in my bed, wondering why the sandman hates me so much. According to several sources, insomnia is common in teenagers as their body is practically on steriods. Geez...at least dance is going great! It gives me a reason to grind out another week of torture. One way I have chosen to counteract this is to start actually working out and eating better. A healthier diet and more active lifestyle can help to keep the body energized and ready for everyday work. Today I tried V8. (This is what made me want to make myself better) Man, I have been missing out. V8 was just like fruit punch, only healthy! I felt so great afterwards! Another thing I am going to try is reading more. By keeping my brain active, and not just on hibernate mode while watching T.V., it will help to shake this tired feeling. I hope to stick to this plan. I really do.

Jacob (Creative Name Huh) IT'S A GYM!!!
NAL we sooo much fun. We played against a team that have been UNDEAFTED for YEARS. We were down by one and Jacob (hhahaha love that name) answered one right. It put us in the lead with only 10 secs left on the clock. THE WHOLE FAIRFIELD SIDE SCREAMED AND JUMPED. The next question would decide the game. NO ONE KNEW IT! WE WON! GO JACOB!!!
