Fluff Ideas

One of the things I love about myself is that from something as simple as a song or a saying I can somehow come up with a sort of story line. Now, it's no always a grand idea, but it always has a little something to it. And it will usually keep me entertained for a bit. And these little ideas I have come to call fluff ideas. They normally don't amount to anything because I forget about them. But then there are some that stick around in the back of my mind, get thought of more then a couple times, and soon evolve into one of my stories.
So now I have a new fluff idea that is thanks to the song "It's Raining Men" and the fairy god mother. So there's this girl who's down on her luck in the love scene. So one night she goes out with her best friend who is a guy after they both have yet another set of terrible dates. They happen to see a shooting star. The girl, in all corny-ness, wishes to find the perfect guy. So the next day she wakes up and find a guy in her room - who is wearing nothing but a toga thing. He is her fairly godly man and he is there to grant her wish and give her the perfect guy. All she has to do is explain the guy and he will - quite literally - fall from the sky. So the girl gets over the shock, and tells f.g.m what she wants and he comes falling down from the sky with the rain. But after a while the girl realizes that the guy isn't what she really wants. F.g.m reappears on the scene and says it's probably because she didn't give him enough details. So she tries again...and again when that one doesn't work out. And again after that. And again and again and so on and so forth till she finally discovers that even her f.g.m can't give her the perfect man because no man is truly perfect and the guy she should be with has been there all along. No, not fairly godly man, but her best friend!
Yeah I know it's weird, but I think it would be hilarious! I like it, maybe I'll write a short novel about it someday when I have time.

Random Thoughts

Frist off thank you to my school network for alowing me to be able to blog during school!
Anyway so not much to say right now. Basically I'm in school and the teacher has just given the five minuet warning. I've always wanted to blog, but I've never had time. Now that I finally do, no thoughts come to mind.
Isn't that the way it always go. That's the irony of life. Has anyone ever notice how utterly ironic life usually is? I just think it's funny sometime....think about it, you'll see what I mean.
Anyway the only thing happening in my life right now is that my choir is going on a trip and my rooming is all screwed up. (2 mins) At the moment I am wiht my dear sister and her friends - which I am happy with. but now another girl wants to switch to my place and kick me out into the cold. At first I was all sad and like 'oh no! now i'll have to be with some random peopel!', but then it came to me! I don't have to move! I can stay right where I am and leave the other girl out in the cold.
Hi Emmy.
News! We just got 4 more minuets!
Sorry my crazy friend Emmy is looking over my shoulder and my teacher just gave us more time! Yay Mr. B! He's watching me right now too! Hi! Wow now everyone (like 3 people) are looking up my blog! Hey people!
Well this is interesting I've seem to have started a trend!
Wait, what was I talking about? Oh yeah, rooming. So I've decided to fight for my place. i've never notice before, but I'm a bit of a push over. (1 more minuet. wow that 3 went by fast) But i'm not going to give in this time. I'm
Time up! Okay this made no sense. Sorry

The Now

Well - it's been a busy weekend for me. I had a syncro meet, which went fairly well. It made me realize how much I want to improve. I'm going to have to take it up a notch if I ever want to make it to regional. And think of it, next year I'm moving up to 16-17 age group! How scary is that! New figures, new routines! It's going to be crazy! Right now, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to handle it. But that's a long way off and I'm trying to focus on the now.
I've always had some trouble with that focus. I worry so much about basically every little thing and a great deal about the future. But what I have to understand is that I'll have plenty of time for that then and what I should be doing now is seeing the now! Am I the only one who had that problem? I think not, or hope not because if that's so I might be crazy. Might. But there is also the issue of how I get lost in my thoughts and imaginings and forget that the now is the real now.
Like right now I have sync to worry about and school tomorrow, where I may be getting my vocal testing done. Hopefully anyway, our choir teacher has been putting it off for a few classes. Maybe because we suck or maybe he is just a very forgetful man. How should I know, I'm just a silly little alto! I just really want to do good and I want to get it over with so I can move on to worring about other things!
Also happening in the now - I've come up with yet another idea for a future book of mine! This one is realistic fiction, about a girl around 21-22 who goes off on a road trip. Not for any particular reason, just to rome and see if she can find something. So she goes from town to town, trying to avoid bigger cities, working odd jobs, meeting a few people, and learning all she can. Finally she stop in this one small town and meets the people who will change her life - handsome older diner guy, teenage rocker, flower shop sisters, piano playing granny, and jerky cocky farm boy. Obviously, there is much more to the story - names, backgrounds, fluff, drama, romance, mystery, and all that great stuff. But - don't go and take this the wrong way - I don't really trust the Internet with all that extra detail. But trust me, when this gets down in print, it'll be amazing - just give me like 10 years to write it!
As for now...well I'm going to move on to other very importent things.
