Left Handedness vs. Right Handedness

The grass isn't always greener on the other side..
Did you know..?
Left Handed people are more prone to become acholohics, have chron's disease, stutter, and die nine years earlier than right handed people?
Many People in the 1600's killed left handed people because they thought they were witches.
In England long ago, left handers were forced to use thier right hand, causing them speech problems down the road.
All Polar Bears are left handed.
Left Handed People's handwriting often smears because thier hand drags across it as they write. As for a right handed person the ink has few seconds to dry before they drag thier hand across it.
All The school desks in public schools are made for right handed people resulting in left handed people having to write sideways.
Men are more likely to be left handed than women.
Left Hander's day is August 13th.
Left Handed people don't do too well with taking pictures because the camera button is on the oppsite side than thier dominant hand.
In the Middle Ages, if you wrote with your left hand you were killed.
If both parents are left handed, chances are 50% they will have a left handed child. If thier both righties they only have a 2% chance.
Most babies use only thier right hand, and start to use thier left (if they're going to be a leftie) at 2 years of age.
Left Handed people are smarter than right handers. Thier IQ's tend to be over a 130, and they are better at science and math.
So Yeah... Maybe being extra creative isn't worth being left handed.

if you ever need me, LA is where I'll be.

i love california. the best thing about it? it's far away from west virginia. haha. i think i'd have a better chance of getting hired as a journalist in california than in WV, some people disagree with me but i really don't care. theres no way i'm staying in west virginia.
i want to live in LA the most. all the other cities rock, it's just LA is the place to be.
i'm not going there for the entertaiment industry. i'm going for the journalism. i cant sing and more than likely cant act (not too sure with the acting because i've never tried) but i can write pretty good.
my mom's best friend's son is in the marines and travels a lot. he was in japan but now he's in san diego, california and i'm so jealous. the comic con was there last week and i would have loved to go. but unfortunely, he flew out there when he was done visting with his family, and i didn't get the well looked forward to--cross country trip. sadly.
it takes 33 hours to get to LA from my house. That's not including time to stop to eat, get gas and sleep. it takes a week to drive out there but it would be worth it.
my mom said that if we went out there, we would only go to san diego. but that would be worth it too. san diego has some good beaches there. they film TV shows out there: Medium, Ghost Whisperer, and So You Think You Can Dance.
Oh Yeah, want a good song to get you in a 'California' mood???
'California Love' 2pac.
rock out.
xoooxoxo.

Ramblin' Sometimes Helps...OR NOT!

If I didn't have writing ,what would I do? I can't answer that question,because I'm not sure myself. Without writing all day, my life sure would be dull. Writing excites me. It's fun for me to write people the way I want them to act and be.
I'm starting highschool on August 19th. I can't wait. I've always wanted to be through with school and now I almost am. 4 more years. :)
I got to choose some of sechdule for highschool. I have three electives. I had to choose three + four alterntives in case those are full.
My mains were: Journalism, French, and Digtial Imaging. My Alterntives were: Piano, Speech,Exploring Technogly, and Art.
I suck at Art I know. But it was the only class I could find that would give me a full credit. I don't like Math much so I like it when it's whole numbers when I have to add up my credits.
My friend Emily is in Marching Band. I was in Middle School Band with her, but wearing a weird costume and marching all day just didn't appeal to me, so I didn't sign up.
In Middle School Band I played Clarinet. Emily played the flute. She's really good, and I'm just okay. She did all the extra stuff for band (all county, marshall honary) and all I did was go to Chambers one time. haha. Music is great to listen to, I just don't like playing it--much.
Exploring Technogoly seemed interesting to me. It probably takes a lot of math and science knowlege but I need the practice. It teaches you how to take apart and put computers back together. I wanted to know how to do that so I signed up.
French--why french? Kirsten Vangsness knows how to speak it. I thought I should too. I hate Spanish, yet I love Miami. Spanish is diffcult to learn and I hate diffcult. It's the whole feminie and masculine words that throw me. WTF? Speak English.
Digital Imaging is a popular class, that I probably won't get. I plan on minoring in Photography when I get to college. It seemed to go well along with my major being Journalism.
As for Speech, my mom says I need to talk more in front of people I don't know. I tend not to. I get really nervous talking in front of people and they think this class would helpful to me.
That's pretty much it for my post for today. I heard on a TV show that talking helps. This is techically rambling, so it doesn't count. Oh well.
xooxox.

To My 'Love'

Sometimes in life there are things I can't explain to you. Your the one I love, like and lust. You will always be that to me. I've tried to get over you, but when I look at other people I find myself looking for you inside them.
I've loved you since the day I first saw you. Ever since then, you've been the one I dream about, write about, and live for. I would do everything in my power to please you, because your opinion matters the most to me. Your the only one that ever mattered this much to me, I can't get over you. The other's were different. I don't care about them anymore.
To me, it doesn't matter how much you hurt me. As long as you're with me, it doesn't matter. It will always heal. My Family can't help me. Nor can my friends. They say I don't give it time, they say if I didn't look for you everywhere and keep holding on to hope, I wouldn't love you anymore. But that's the most diffcult and painful thing I have EVER done.
I'm sorry. You probably have figured out exactly why I was by your house that day. I'd get on my knees and beg to you if I knew you'd forgive me. But I know it would never work, because you hate to see me.
I know why you said 'Hi' to me that day. If you were alone you would have treated me like you always did. But he was with you. And that changed everything. Not only for you, but for me too. I sat up nights trying not to think of you. Never works.
I always heard in quotes that the 'one you can never get over' is the one for you. If that's true I'll wait for you. But we both know that will never happen. We may never see one another ever again. At least not with him around, but still I want to see you. No matter how much it hurts.
If we ever find our way together in the end, I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you, and being who you want me to be. I owe you that. Always. I would be living the best days of my life.
I have never forgotten anything you ever said to me. I never forgot the dates either. I kept everything you ever signed, touched, and as for that jacket when you hugged me, I never washed it. And it smells just like you still.
I'll be waiting for you--for a while. I won't forever. You'll always be my first choice, and the one I'd give up everything for.
Why, after everything you've done?
Because I'm still in love with you.

'Kiss and Tell'

So the other day I was googling one of my favorite and totally awesome celebrities Shannon Tweed, and I found out she has a autobiography! Amazing right?
I'm so mad though, because every where I've tried doesn't have it in stock. Barnes and Noble, Borders, Amazon, Walmart. I'm very depressed.
I shouldn't have read 'Let's take a peak inside!' on amazon. It let me read the first two pages and I got hooked. :) It was a foreword from Gene Simmons (from KISS) who rocks also BTW. Now whenever I see people wearing KISS shirts in public I kept staring at thier shirts until they say:
"What the hell are you staring at?" And I'll be like:
"Which one of those guys is Gene Simmons?" They all look the same to me.
ANYWAY, I really want Shannon's autobiography. I can't find it and it's driving me nuts. I've learned a lot about her though through the google seraches I did.
Did you know..
Shannon has 6 brothers and sisters? 2 sisters and 4 brothers?
That she's from Canada?
She met Gene Simmons on his birthday?
She was at one time in her life, with a woman (who was a PLAYMATE!)
Her and her sister Tracy have the same middle name?
That she's 5'10? THATS SO COOL!
Her birthday's March 10th?
Did you know she's been happily unmarried for 26 and a half years?
That she has appeared in over 60 sexual movies?

Want some irony?
I just recently starting watching Gene Simmons: Family Jewels (well march if you want the truth :) )
Before then I had never even heard of Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed. Seriously. I had heard of KISS though. Don't think I sound too Amish.
Anyhoo, I realized something ironic when I googled thier show.
Thier son Nick's birthday is January 22nd. The same day as that teacher I used to like birthday was!
And thier daughter Sophie's birthday is the same day as Kirsten Vangsness. July 7th.
TALK ABOUT IRONY!!!

25 Things You probably didnt know about me! :)

2)I like to read quotes. I often write them in places and post them EVERYWHERE!

3)I'm a bit paranoid about trusting people anymore. I've been talked about way too much I guess.

14) I love Criminal Minds. It's my second addiction.

15) I don't believe in: Love at First Sight, Luck, Soulmates,or Friends With Benefits.

My crazy ol' Ideas..

So the other day I was watching 'The Decent Proposal' on Lifetime (Saturday I think.) ANYWAY, that's where I got the idea for 'The Love of Her Life'. That movie is about a young woman's boss tricking her into thinking her boyfriend was dead, he marries her, and she has her boyfriend's baby while thinking he is dead. BUT HE WAS ALIVE!
I went wild after that. I'd been looking for an idea for days because I was nearly finished with 'On the Rocks.' Don't get me wrong, I had a couple of halfway written rough drafts that were ideas in the process but this was real. And a Awesome Idea.
I think I spent a good 30 minutes of my life writing Chapter 1 and posting it on fanfiction. I was starting to think maybe it was a bad idea when-- BAM!-- people starting to review me.
I never really think my stories are good until people tell me they are. I was kinda shocked at who reviewed my stoires because I spent many months reading THIER fanfictions before I had the nerve to post: 'White Horse.'
I mean come on! When poeple you used to worship and read and reread thier stories and then they tell you your story rocks then that's gotta mean something! ;)
Well I must go now. To write Chapter 3 and possibly Chapter 4. And I also must trust my muse. Yet sometimes I don't because my ideas tend to be a bit dramatic.
But fret not, I am on my way to my story.
xxxooo.

Welcome To MY Blog.

Hello all. I am Bri. A California Dreamin' teenager with dreams bigger than her reality. But that's ok. God gave us an imgination for a reason. Let's use it. :)

I am addicted to writing. Fanfiction, Short Stories, Chapter Books, Poetry, BRING IT ON! I've been writing for a while now. I really didn't start to dream about being paid for it (Like being an author or journalist) till I was at least 10. Now I'm always writing. My dream is to work for The Los Angeles Times.

There's also this show I love and write the most about: Criminal Minds. I love it. It's 21 kinds of awesome. Aside from the gruesome bleeding people and freaky unsubs they chase down. I watch it for thier tech girl Garcia usually. I'm a Garcie Girl. I can't help it.

So that's me. In the simplest form I can think of. Talk to me.
xxooo.
