Labor Day Weekend

On big summer holidays such as Mamorial day, 4th of July and Labor Day, my family heads up to our beach property up in Long Beach Washington. This last weekend, I along with my mom, dad and my friend Brianna went up and had a fun (but, painful for me- due to discovering more about my sun allergy {which, by the way, I just realized I never told y'all about... I have a sun allergy.}), lazy and a uncomfortible weekend. Here are some of my pictures from the weekend.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Has anyone seen this show? I used to be forced to watch it when I was nannying Charlee because she loved it, and that was understandable seeing as she was a 9 year old girl... But recently, a lot of teenage boys and girls have been getting into the show and even starting to become obsessive. Actual teenage boys walking the halls of my High School singing the songs from this show and talking about which pony is the best pony. Now, I'm not here to judge. People can do what they want with their free time. I'm just not sure I get it. I mean, I guess that it could be a good thing for some guys to get a little more sensitivity training from watching such a show religiously, but it just a little odd, don't you think? Anyone have any comments on this topic? I mean, I'm sure some of you that are mothers watch it with your children. What do you guys think of the show? Is this obsession a good thing or a bad thing?

Playing Catch Up

I know... I'm a bad blogger. It's been like 3 weeks sense i've posted and I am truly sorry...  I just have kind of lost my muse to blog at the current time, however, I am confident that I shall get it back before to long. So here I am, playing catch up so you all know what's going on in the crazy life of Alisha.

1) I don't know if I've mentioned this before... but i'm kind of obsessed with Team StarKid. They did AVPM/S, Starship, Me and My Dick, and Holy Musical B@man. Anyway, I've seen them live and they'r even better in person. They're also amazing people and I hope to be like them one day.

2) StarKid has inspired me and some friends to write and produce our own things this summer. More information to come.

3) I no longer work at my dad's shop because I hated it and now I'm just living on a budget... ekk.

4) Sophmore year is just about over, and I leave to Alaska soon, which means this blog has been up for almost a year :)

5) I am once again in a relationship... with the same guy from the last two times... yep.

Anyway, more news to come as soon as possible.

Shoot: James

Here are the photos from a random little shoot with a good friend of mine James, who can be found blogging here.

This is just us hanging out outside while waiting for one of the Pirates of Penzance shows to start.

Hail Poetry

Recently, my life has been writing and preforming Poetry. Last Saturday for Speech and Debate I performed my Poetry for 4 judges and will find out where I placed in a few hours (though it wasn't in the top three). And just last night a few friends and I competed at our school's 8th annual Poetry Slam. I didn't make it very far, but it was still fun. And to me, it's not about winning, it's about enjoying what you love to do, which for me is performing Poetry.

Guest Post: James

So about a month ago my friend James asked to make a guest post for my blog to get some readers onto his blog and I have been so far behind on everything that I had forgotten all about it. So this is me posting it now:


check out his blog by clicking here to see a special post made for my awesome readers :)


His Post:


You see, I have two blogs. One is about movies, the other, about music. This blog is my music one and man, do I love. For the next 18 posts or so, I'll be delving into each and every genre of music I have on my iTunes and writing about my favorite songs of each genre. And I'm going in alphabetcial order. In this case, A-W. I'd highly encourage everyone to take a look at this blog and you might like what you read.

Second Chances

Are worth it, right? If you don't let yourself give someone another chance, you never know how your future would have gone differently. I for one hate asking myself, "What If?" Because it makes me want to kick myself for not finding out when I had the chance.

So why do I feel like my friends who tell me not to give a second chance are right? They obviously have good intentions and want what's best for me. But I also feel like I have to figure out on my own, even if that may mean getting hurt again. I just have to know for sure.

This is crazily confusing!

Tuesday 10: 10 things I would have with me on a deserted Island

Today I am CO-HOSTING Tuesday 10 with an amazing girl and blogger named Lena over at mom2memphisandruby and the theme is 10 things I would need to have on a deserted Island. here we go:

1)My best friend Lillee-- I mean I'll need someone to tell all the gossip I hear from the monkeys too.

2)A computer and wifi-- to blog all the gossip as well

3)tools to build a cabin for us to live in and hide from the rain.

4)my journal-- because I never leave home without it

5)my Nikon P500-- my baby!!!!

6)sun glasses-- actually, my actual glasses turn into sunglasses when I'm outside, so I'd be okay.

7) a really cute guy who got ship-wrecked with us-- what can I say? Flirting is my favorite pass time.

8) Yarn-- maybe I'd actually find the time to crochet on the Island

9) A radio so I could dance like a crazy person to my favorite music without being seen and judged (And sense Lillee would be there too, she doesn't count sense she would be dancing along side me :) )

10)food and drink-- becasue water and coconuts would get old fast...

well, that's my Tuesday 10. what's yours? Link up and tell us!

Oregon Food Bank

Yesterday I went on a class trip to the Oregon Food Bank with my Health Class. I figured it would be super boring: having to scoop and bag beans and all. But actually, it was a blast. we worked for an hour and a half and made 5,700 meals for people who were going hungry in Oregon. It felt really great to be able to help :)

Obviously I'm the one with the camera case... I carry it everywhere.

Blanchet Speech Tournament

Saturday, March 3rd 2012 was our Last Speech tournament before Districts. How'd we do? Well, not so well. No one on our team finaled. But I did have a really good talk with some amazing boys on my team and it was a really good day anyway. Plus, I got to flirt, which is ALWAYS fun.

Get Well Soon Justin

A few days ago, my friend Justin was sent to the hospital because he had a hole in his lung. I was told by everyone who knew more than me that it wasn't a very big deal and that he would be okay. Even if that is so, it's still sad and it's still hard not to worry. My team is my family and I wish them all the best. Get Well Soon Justin aka. Pirate King (in Pirates of Penzance)

My friend Nina

This, Ladies and gentleman, is my amazing friend, Nina. Nina has been a good friend of mine sense late July and is such a wonderful person, I've recently made a blog for her and at the time it's even smaller than mine (if you can believe that) if you get a chance to go check her out, you won't be sorry.

Superbowl weekend

Saturday was alright...

Sunday was a nightmeir!!!

i woke up to a ex-friend being mad at me for not wanting to get in volved in some stupid drama and after being yelled at for house because of that, i started to feel like crap. I was looking forward to going to my sisters Superbowl party, but after falling down the stairs due to my eyes being full of tears i ended up in bed all day watching glee season 2 on DVD. It wasn't to bad. But i hate how my so called "friends" treated me. I'm not talking to any of them anymore, I don't desirve to be treated that way due to the way i feel about things.

Now, besides having a bruised back i'm kinda sick. not to bad, just a head cold.

And sorry i haven't posted very lately, i've been doing a lot of photo sessions and i've started writing a new novel which i may post or may not depending on things. Anyway,

Much Love

Bad Day :(

Normally, I'm not one to complain much when I have bad days, I normally keep my feelings bottled up and use the emotion in my stories I write...unless it's really bad. Today hasn't been the worst day I've ever had, but it's totally on the Top Ten list for the school year so far. I went to bed last night with a headache, and woke up with an even worse headache. I had to walk to school in the cold with Charlee who insisted the frost on the ground was really snow and was very loud about it. And then one of my friends decided to take something i said way to literial and got upset with me when infact i was just joking and anyone else would have gotten the joke... if you (and you know who you are) are reading this, I'm sorry for ranting about you, but sometimes when you say you're having a worse time then someone else, maybe you should have them explain their situation before you assume. (and we all know what they say about people assuming things)

Back into ranting about my day, on the way to my first period of today (English), I fell really hard while walking up the stairs infront of a lot of people. i hurt my right Knee very bad to the point where it's already givven out on me twice today and i banged my head on the floor to the point where I'm starting to doubt if my headache will ever go away.

It's been one of those days where i just want to go home right away and curl up under my very soft pink blanket that i found hidden under the stairs and sleep until tomorrow. *sighs*

Of Mice and Men

Recently, I read the book, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. I found this book both very entertaining and very inspiring. However I have to admit the ending took me by supprise. It made me think about the friends that I have and what friends would do that for me if I was in that kind of trouble. I'm very thankful for all my friends and everythinhg they do for me, even if they wouldn't go as far as to kill me as George did for Lennie. love you all :)
