This morning I've been cuddling on the couch with my adorable dog Daisy Mae and putting inappropriate song lyrics into google translate and then listening to the translation. Call me immature but it helps me get by. Not to mention my life is only more complete now that I know what it would have sounded like if an ancient Roman ever wanted to say, "My pussy tastes like Pepsi-Cola".

I wanted to put a picture of Daisy right here but I don't have any quality files on hand. Here is an alternate photo of Seijuro Mikoshiba from hot summer anime Free!

LOOK AT THIS FRICKIN CUTIE!!

In about half an hour, at 10, I'm going out to visit my grandparents and deliver some groceries to them. Then at 11:30 my friend Lauren and I are meeting at the mall for EXTREME FRIENDSHIP ACTIVITIES. I'm about 5'9" and Lauren is almost a foot shorter than me and when we get together things get out of hand in all the best ways. We just bounce off each other really well, I suppose. In math class we have assigned seating, and we sit by each other most days of the week. Our math teacher has yet to rearrange out spots, which is surprising due to how many times we've gotten scolded for talking and laughing during class. 

After the mall I have baton practice at 5 pm. Hopefully I won't be too tired from walking around the mall. I'm going to try and get a quick nap in before I have to drive to practice. 

All in all, things are shaping up already to be a pretty great day. I was hoping to hang out with one of my friends from work tonight, but he has to work, unfortunately. We were going to go to Red Mango yesterday, but some stuff came up and we couldn't. But that's the past. I'm keeping my sights set on what is sure to be a superb saturday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

WHOA. I just realized something this morning as I washed my hands in the smelly school bathroom.

My blog is one year old.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!?!? It seems like just yesterday that I was sitting in my poorly lit bedroom choosing a theme for my new blog, Infinitely Pi. It's almost surreal, to be honest. When I first created my blog, I had absolutely ZERO intention of keeping it updated, let alone investing time in it everyday. I feel like a momma whose baby is all grown up. Despite this monumental moment in my blog's history, do not expect this to be the last of me. I am planning on continuing to update my lil' 'ol blog. Rather than screaming at all of you about how excited I am for the rest of this post, let's take a look at some of my blog's best moments in time:

• My first blog post on Infinitely Pi!!!
• When I decided I was going to blog more often.
• DO I NEED TO SAY ANYTHING EXCEPT "SWAG SNOWMAN"??
• The Tic-Tac incident.
• First documented post about math-hatred.
• First Top-40. 
• The day of the Muumuu's.
• Overly-dramatic haiku monday. 
• R.I.P. my favorite pen. 
• WWND?
• Baby, won't you be my girl? 
• The Olive Garden Incident. 
• My artsy-farsty day. 
• The Blueberry Hands.
• Remember when I was a champion?
• My lawn gnome with the over-done name. 
• Sketch
• That day I quit blogging. 
• 100th post.
• The first song I posted on my blog.
• Josalyn's rockin' b-day party. 
• When I FINALLY passed Honors Geometry.
• In which I was peer-pressured into watching "Beauty and the Beast".
• NGTJAW.
• Ew gross Driver's Ed.
• I really like the title of this vlog...

Whew. Was this post self-indulgent? Yes. Is that any different from usual? No. 

I am feeling to elated right now because going back and looking at all of those old posts brought back so many fond memories. This has been a journey of epic proportions for me, and I am so glad that it is going to continue. Where is my next destination for Infinitely Pi? I'm not sure. But I know it's going to rock. 

The Year Is Almost Over

Wow, it's hard to believe, but the school year is almost over! I have about seven more days and then I can kiss that death trap goodbye for almost three whole months! I am so excited, I hardly even have words I can write down to express my emotions. Instead have this image:

This is exactly how I feel. Taken from: here

Now for a little history lesson: The entire reason I created this blog in the first place was to help me survive school. It helped a little in the beginning, because I had something else to do at school besides cry (the beginning of the year was a pretty rough patch for me). I thought that if I blogged everyday I would become happy. But it's the sort of artificial happiness that comes from, say, marrying Jack Johnson. It's not possible, but thinking about it is nice. Funnily enough, as the months passed by, I was actually starting to enjoy blogging more and more, and Infinitely Pi as it is today started to take shape. Now I love blogging, and I don't know how I got through the first month of school without it. All of you readers who comment and leave nice messages of encouragement and compliments literally make my day. It is so comforting knowing that people out there actually read all this crap I write, and that they actually enjoy it. This all means so much more to me than any of you will probably ever know. And now, with Summer on the horizon, I hope to keep on updating, and hopefully Infinitely Pi will be able to celebrate it's 1 year birthday in September with lots of old friends and hopefully a few new readers.

I've been wanting to write this post for awhile now, and it feels really nice finally being able to get it down and posted. I just want to give all of my readers a big 'ol hug right now. Unfortunately this is the best I can do:

Mmmm... there we go. Are you getting warm fuzzies right now? I sure am. Thank you all so much for supporting me in my at times ridiculous endeavors with this blog. 

JOSALYN IS MY FRIEND AND SHE THROWS GOOD PARTIES

This post is way overdue, but there have been considerable road blocks stopping me from writing about Josalyn's birthday party. They include, but are not limited to: me asking for pictures of the party and no one giving them to me, me waiting for people to give me pictures, and my forgetfulness.

Roadblocks aside, I'm going to write about it now. Let's get one thing straight first: Any party Josalyn throws is guaranteed to be a smash. She is one cool cat, and I love chilling with her. In honor of her 15th birthday a couple of weeks ago, Josalyn rounded up me and a bunch of our other friends, and we partied hard.

The party started around one o clock in the afternoon. When I arrived Josalyn and my other friend Matt were blowing up balloons (Matt, since I mentioned your name you can have a post tag now). Josh, another friend, was fiddling with the radio trying to find the most obnoxious radio station to tune it to. He decided upon the Opera station. I was hoping for cool jazz. Anyhow, more of our friends started showing up, and once all the balloons were blown up, the party began.

For approximately an hour we hung out in Josalyn's living room, chatting, eating the snacks provided, and throwing balloons at each other. The balloon battle was fierce, and many balloons were popped in the process. I feel like it's not really a party unless there's been a latex sacrifice. After we killed off most of the balloons, we went out to Josalyn's backyard and whacked the piñata. You read that right: WHACKED THE  PIÑATA. Did I mention I don't really think it's a party unless there's a piñata?

The piñata was huge, and I am guessing it was pretty authentic, because it was heavy and made out of like 12 layers of newspaper. It was a giant green bull, and it wouldn't break apart for nothing. Part of the problem may have been that we were using a whiffle bat, and that the bat bent after being hit against the piñata too much. We eventually had to switch to a baseball bat. The baseball bat is what did it in, in the end, after much persuasion (persuasion, in this case, is the piñata being whacked repeatedly on the neck). After the piñata finally broke, we reaped the spoils by all jumping onto the candy as fast as possible. I took all the BlowPops.

I had someone take a picture of me with the piñata carcass that I wanted to post, but alas, I do not know what happened to this picture. After the piñata fiasco, we went back inside and Josalyn opened her gifts, and it was all good fun, really. Unfortunately, three o clock came too soon, and I had to leave. I bought some time though by not flagging my mom down when she was driving, lost, through the neighborhood.

Josalyn, I am so sorry it took me so long to write this post. You're such a great friend and I'm sorry if you felt like I was putting you off, which I promise I was not trying to do intentionally. I hope you liked this summary of your birthday party <> <>

You Guys Should Give Me Stuff!

Remember my cork board? Most unfortunately, it has become extremely cluttered over the past couple of months. I've been planning on cleaning it up for awhile now, but it's hard to commit to it. Especially because I don't want to have to decide what stays and what goes. As I tore through the many layers of memories on my cork board last night, I found stuff that dates all the way back to 2006. Most of the stuff from elementary school had to go. Actually, most of the stuff had to go, to make room for art that my friend Josalyn has given me. There is also some art of my own, and pictures of my family, etc. 

Geez, you guys need to step it up. As it stands right now, my cork board is about 50% Josalyn and Lizzie. I think it would be lots of fun if you, all of my blog readers, made me nice things that I could hang on my board! Yes, this is me being greedy, but as the author of this blog I don't care about being greedy on here. I just realized it might be awkward if no one makes me anything... so you can be the game changer! Hand me stuff in real life, or you can always email me at: infinitelypiblog@yahoo.com 

I just made this email this morning, and it is specifically for my blog. Send anything you want here :D 

100th Blog Post Extravaganza!!!

Whoa, guys. How the heck did this happen? Did I really just create my 100th blog post? I've been on my blog for nine whole months now. It seems sort of crazy to think about it like that, geez. I think that this blog post deserves special attention, don't you? That's why I'm going to flood it with links: links to my favorite posts I've written over the nine months. Do you have a favorite? :o)

• The origin of the swag snowman.
• That day I drew a bunch of crappy pictures but uploaded them anyway.
• My first Haiku Monday, that wasn't even a haiku because I didn't count my syllables carefully.
• The day I wanted to be all heroic about the muumuu.
• The time I posted a poem that wasn't completely terrible.
• When I wrote about Foods class and that boy. You know the one. 
• Where I took a picture of my corkboard.
• The day I finally finished Act 5 of Homestuck, and I wrote a song about it. 
• Where I find the draft of a post about pickles and their flavorful brines. 
• Where I am a sneaky trickster and I pretend like I am going to stop blogging. 
• The day we celebrated Josalyn's birthday at the Dark Carnival.

Whew, I think that's it. These should all be linked correctly, but if you have problems let me know and I can fix it. I also want to say thanks to all of you who follow my blog, because you guys are the reason I keep trying to say funny stuff :D


Edit: I totally forgot this is the post where all the anonymous commenters flooded in. Guys, that was such a stressful situation for me, you have no idea. 

Why Did I Write This?

Approximately a month ago I wrote this post, and now it is the only thing in my Drafts folder. I really am curious as to why I wrote this (since I have no memory of my intentions). It made me laugh a little bit when I read it, but that may just be because I like to laugh at my own stupidity sometimes. Who knows.


I am typing in a large font right now. Or should I say write now since that would be a HILARIOUS pun. Okay, maybe not that funny. Now I'm writing with a green highlight! AHAHAHAH


Tomorrow is Easter.Now I am writing in purple. I remember last Easter I made a blog post about geo-caching on my old blog because that's what we did to kill some time. This post doesn't make any sense. Over and out home dogs. 




Should I be concerned? Yeah, I don't know either. Anywho, happy Wednesday! Today's background is for Josalyn (and also a portion of it is for me).
