The last book in a trilogy I'd been reading came out the day after Christmas, and I was excited to go and get it. I heard that it had leaked early so I searched for it in Barnes and Noble, dragging Courtney to the "Teen Section." I realized the humor in the situation of two 18 year olds searching desperately for a book amidst the Princess Diaries and Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging. And I kept hoping some friend of ours would show up, preferably one who knew how sophisticated Courtney's taste in literature actually was, yet would automatically doubt it once she is spotted in that area. That's right, I'm telling the truth: Courtney would take Meg Cabot over Sylvia Plath anyday.
Anyways, I've been devouring this book over the last two days, realizing how much I miss this. Escaping into these worlds where everything is ten times more dramatic and adventurous than my own life. But in this particular book, a reoccurring theme is the facade of certain characters in order to charm or manipulate. They will do anything to get what they want, telling each other through false grins how lovely they look. And somehow I manage a connection between this angsty, fantasy, victorian "teen" novel and real life.
This whole first semester at school I just keep feeling as though I haven't made any true friends as I have at home. People seem even more fake, even more wanting to impress. Everyone smiles and laughs on cue and have recited ways of getting "We should definitely hang out," an empty invitation, into any conversation. With the real friends I have, we don't make plans to hang out, we just end up together and hang out. It's not something we feel obligated to do, or something we're testing out to see if it feels like a match.
So reading these "escapist novels," as Courtney calls them, makes me happy and depresses me at the same time: I do get to escape and feel as though I'm involved in things I know to be impossible in my lifetime, yet at the same time it depresses me to admit which excellent, adventurous, romantic things will never happen to me, and which depressing, unfortunate things are actually universal truths.
So there's that. Danielle

Only in college have I discovered how quickly I can read novels when I absolutely have to.
For example, the frist novel I had to read (224pgs) took me about 3 afternoons to read. The next novel (181pgs) took me 2 nights and a morning. This was because I also had 2 essays to write and a midterm to study for, and I didn't realize there would be NO SUMMARIES OF THE BOOK ONLINE until 2 days before it was due.
Now, at 11:12PM Tuesday I am only 34 out of 208 pages in to a book that is due on Thursday... We shall see if I can finish this one in one night and one day. Ready, go!

So, I'm going to give an account of my week/weekend so far because it has been the most eventful since coming here.
So I received a call from Amanda Phillips this week telling me that her housemates and her had a meeting and I was officially going to live in Camelot next year! She told me before that this was a possibility, but I didn't want to count on it in case it didn't work. I was sort of expecting it not to work, so it was a really really nice surprise considering I had no idea where I was going to live otherwise. So that should be fun. I've met most of the girls from the house and they're really nice and know me by name even though I don't know all of them by name (oops).
Macki left on Thursday to go to a wedding in some random state, so the room was all mine for the weekend, which I actually kind of enjoyed. Friday I went to IV with my smallgroup and afterwards one of the girls told me a bunch of people were going to get coffee and invited me to join them so I went along. Then as I was following the masses I found out we weren't getting coffee, but going back to the subfree dorm, where all but me and two other girls in my smallgroup live. We got there and everybody sort of dispersed, but there was talk about going to see the new Die Hard. I didn't have anything better to do so I went to see it and it was awesome! Afterwards at like midnight we went to the tennis courts by Bell Hall and all played soccer.
I've missed soccer so much and it was really fun to play again! Of course when you get a big group of people who haven't trained on the same team together the strategy each person develops is usually run after the ball and score score score. So on our team we had a lot of people playing offense, so I sticked back and played defense, which I never play. But it was good. A lot of the guys on the other team would try to dribble past me and I kept getting the ball from them, especially Cameron, who they teased a bit for this. Later they ripped his snap-off pants off and he continued to run down the field with the pant legs trailing him. It was pretty funny. Our team lost in the end but whatever.
At about 2 we were walking off the course when I noticed strange people wearing animal masks walking around. As I walked closer, the one in the donkey mask seemed more and more familiar, until he took the mask off and it was revealed to be none other than the Peter Phillips. I called him a freak. His other freakfriends were dressed as a banana, monkey, some sort of lumberjack carrying a doll and placing it in streets and hanging it from trees, and my personal favorite: a kid wearing a sheep mask with a wool vest and sketchy white long john pants. He walked in a creepy hunch while carrying a yellow umbrella... and he just stood and stared at people. I really wish I had taken a picture.
I ended up actually going to bed after 3AM which for me is late... and also considering the fact that I knew I had to get up in the morning at 8:30! Of course I ended up sleeping through my alarm and was woken up by my phone ringing and my small group leader saying a girl was picking me up in 5 minutes. So I get dressed really fast and run outside and get in the car and we are off to a thing called PUMPKIN FEST! We got to do a corn maze (it was actually really difficult to find the way out... and I kept thinking of children of the corn), and go on a hay ride, and PICK PUMPKINS! I got a really cute round one to bring back to my dorm. His name is Dumpkins.
After I got back I worked on school work on and off for about 4 hours (seeing as I have 2 exams this week). Then my friend from my hall Sophia invited me out with her friends tonight. I told her I was hesitant because I don't drink and she would be the only person I would know. She told me she understood, but still wanted me to come. So I took a chance and I went. We went to an ashby (lovingly referred to here as trashby) apartment that her friend lived in, and waited for like an hour. There were about 8 of us there and they played beer pong and just "pregamed" o lo que sea. Sophia told me to play with her and said she would drink my beers. So we played with 3 cups half full per team and she and I each got one in, but the guys managed to get all 3 in really fast, and Sophia had already had 3 beers. I was just laughing as I watched her drink them because I knew it was my fault, but she agreed to it. She didn't end up drinking all of it though.
At like 11 we all walked over to the real party, which apparently was some kids birthday party (friend of a friend basically). We were told that it wouldn't be too crowded, but we were wrong. The crowd was overflowing into the parking lot. So we get there and everybody except for me gets their alcohol and we just stand around and talk, which was cool, but the party was basically awkward unless you were drunk. We tried dancing some but it was really really crowded and I kept getting shoved everywhere by people walking in and out. Oh and also you guys will love this- I rejected dancing with 3 guys. One of them was like "Oh you just can't wait to start dancing with me, huh?" (I guess I bumped into him or something) and i just mumbled and was like oh no, and he repeated himself as if he wanted to dance with me while Sophia and her friend tried not to laugh. And I just kept telling him I heard him and I didn't want to dance. I don't think Sophia will let me forget that one. Basically, I'm not exactly used to any of that attention, but it isn't all that flattering considering they would probably go up to any girl so they could just grind with her. I wasn't about to be that girl.
After staying at this party for a little over an hour I could tell that it wasn't going to get more exciting unless I started drinking, which I wasn't going to do. Not looking forward to 2 or 3 more hours of boredom and forced smiles, I told them I was going outside for a little bit and I called Amanda and asked her to rescue me. It felt weird calling somebody and saying that, considering it's a classic teenage tv show script thing to do. But I didn't need to be rescued because it wasn't what I expected or it scared me- I just realized it wasn't my place and I wanted to leave. Being the awesome person that she is, she quickly agreed and came to get me and take me back to Camelot, where there was a dance party going on in the Underground (underneath Camelot).
Here is where there is a clear difference between the party I went to with Sophia, who I still think is an awesome awesome person, and the party I went to with Amanda. The party earlier tonight was one where they played only rap music and people scandelously danced with strangers because they were drunk. The later party was one where they played rap music and wove in the macarena, scrubs, and other classics and people danced like idiots and people knew each other so it was ok. And it was fun, not boring. And not only fun if you were drunk, because over half the people there weren't drunk at all. That's the world I want to be in.
And everybody who has ever looked down on me because I don't drink, I don't even care. I know that a lot of you guys were afraid of telling me when you started drinking, because you thought I'd look down on it. And you all tried to get me to go out and get experience. And I just want to tell you that yeah I've seen that world, and I really did give it a chance, and for now I don't want anything to do with it. Because I can have so much more fun doing other things.
So there's my week.

No one has updated in awhile and I'm bored so I thought I could. Although now I can't think of anything to say.
I'm going home to work for Neptune's Festival Sept. 28-30 and I'm excited! Then I go home the very next weekend to work (?) and for the closing party. I'm even more excited about going home that weekend cause it is the same one that Tech has their fall break!!!!!! I can't wait to see all you Hokies! That will probably be the only time anyone will ever hear me say that. But then I go home AGAIN Oct. 18-21 for my fall break which is the same as Danielle's!!!!!! AHHHHH!!! SO EXCITED! I think I'm going too much in such a short amount of time but whatevs, I'm going home and getting to see all my friends!!
I went to the groccery store today and spent $73.11. On dorm food. I'm so excited. I got pudding Danielle and thought of you. And I got Aquafina water Blythe and thought of you. Tasty is all I can say. I watched Apocalypto tonight with Matt Beck and it was gross. We ate cookie dough!! (thought of you again Danielle) and Matt was a little too excited when he found out i had some.
It's cold up here, like chilly. It's weird cause I wonder if it's like this at the beach, if it's this cold. It probably isn't. You know I recall myself and others bashing the beach and now that I'm somewhere else, I am really proud of being from the beach.
I hope everyone is having a good time in college, even though I know there's a lot of mixed feelings about it still, I hope the overall one is "pretty good". I love everyone. Do your homework.

 this is the window art i drew at midnight on saturday because i have no friends. it took me an hour. you cant see if very well because it is too light outside. but its pretty awesome, if i say so myself.
 my toms! im so glad courtney told me about these shoes. theyre amazing and really comfy! if you dont know about them like i didnt, for every pair you buy they promise to give one to a child in need. last year they dropped off 10,000 in argentina! i bought th flower ones online for 40 and then amanda told me there was a store here selling them on sale for 10 so i got the tan ones because i couldnt resist buying another pair at that price!

So college...yeah. I hope you guys still read these b/c i'm writing this mostly for you. I love you all and miss you sooo much. I cried acouple of times within the 1st week. I felt like I had no friends and just wanted to cuddle with Blythe or Annelise. I missed my mom and called her way more than I thought I would...weird, and no matter how many times everyone told me not to care, I missed Justin and just wanted him. It's gotten better, I must admit. I bonded with my suitemates and am actually seeing some really good friend potential with acouple of them. I also don't miss Justin as much anymore cause we had a good talk with him basically letting me know that he liked me a lot more than I thought he did and he doesn't remember anything he said which is a plus cause now i have the upper hand mwahaha. But this new found independence from his will probs be short lived since i go home this weekend (labor day) to work and will see him which will probably bring back the feelings...crap. Trust me everyone (moslty Danielle, Blythe, and Annelise) I would loe to let him go but every time i get close he pulls some crap that sucks me back in. It's sickening.
The food sucks. I hate eating at the cafeteria place. I want me some good free food.
Love Margot
p.s. I hope everyone is having a good time and is missing me terribly, but in a good way. I also think Michael Allen is gay, I met a friend of his tonight and one of the first things he said to me was "You're pretty as a bitch!"

The only word to describe tonight is surreal. I don't feel like it happened yet I keep replaying it all again in my head. It was so happy and yet so depressing.
I feel like my history is buried in a box in my yard for somebody else to dig up and read. But there are so many emotions that could never be buried with that box- emotions that explode inside me when I think of everything that has happened over the past 4 years. Sometimes I wish they could also be buried so that it would be easier to move on, but even if it hurts now that it's over I still wouldn't change anything that happened.
There is no way to possibly express this over live journal.

I told Courtney I wanted to write her a poem so she could show her poetry-snob friends. She gave me the topic of sex and then said I had to use the words mastication, bumblebees, and hermiones true cup size somewhere in it. Here is the final peice: _______________________________________________
Vegan Chocolate Strawberries
I hold myself back from those pleasures Of everynight folk, who go about their years Tasting sweet rich chocolate, mastication my mouth will never know. For I hold myself back from those tainted indulgences However sweet, oh, oh so sweet, they may be. I will never suckle honey from bumblebees on my great uncle’s farm Or press my mouth to a large pink teet of grandmother’s Bessie Girl And you will never never hear that prolonged sigh of relief Leaking from my mouth after tasting fresh roasted bratwurst For I am vegan, true and pure in every respect Unlike the mystery of Hermione’s true cup size Please believe that all I’ll ever eat Are vegan chocolate strawberries - Rakel Hoedinell

Just thought I'd let you all read this masterpeice before I skyrocket to poet-stardom

Have you ever wanted to officially be a part of the Invisible Children team? Now’s your chance! Right now Invisible Children is looking for staff, interns, roadies, and volunteers to join our movement on the ground in Uganda and here in the States. We’re looking for talented and passionate individuals with big hearts and big ideas who are dedicated to making a difference. Sound like you? Check out our open positions below and download the application. Send your completed form to jobs@invisiblechildren.com. For more information visit the job section of our website at: www.invisiblechildren.com/jobs/. We look forward to meeting you! STAFF POSITIONS IN AMERICA – Editor / Filmmaker: Will assist in the production of IC videos under the supervision of the Movement Filmmaker and Chief Creative Officer. Make sure you send a sample reel with your application.
UGH! Anybody who knows me well knows how much i love editing videos. I can spend hours doing it and I will lose track of everything else. I'll forget to eat dinner. Nothing else matters. And you'll know how much I've been wanting to just get involved with something like this, something that makes a difference in the world. I just want to use what I love doing to fix all of this craziness that is happening in the world.
And then i get this email, from an organization I admire more than anything, and I'm nearly dashing to my room to pack everything I own to move to California. I don't even need everything I own. Just let me have my cat and I'll be out the door.
Obviously I know that this is illogical. I'm not even 18 yet, I have no money, I have zero experience, they would never hire me. Yeah, I know all of this. But it doesn't stop me from just wanting to be there. Just feeling like it fits me. Making me feel like I'm wasting 4 years when I could get started now. What I've always wanted is dangling right in front of me but out of my reach. ______________________________________________
So instead I am spending my summer at this dog boutique, excuse me, bowtique, Mrs. Bones. How did I end up with this job? I'm a cat person, even! And here I somehow find myself catering to people who spend more money clothing their dogs than I spend clothing myself. I want to smack myself each time I have to lie and say how adorable I think a certain $250 dog carrier is. This is not what I want to do.
"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." Yeah, whatever, Anne Frank.

Young Love- Find a New Way to Dance |
] |
I went on Blythe's birthday extravaganza tuesday and wednesday. It was so good. We went to Busch Gardens tuesday. It was cold and that made me sad. But it was still fun. I made a new friend, Lauren, and we were ride buddies. I like her, she's fun. It was kind of weird at first because there were like 2 groups and the only thing we had in common was that we loved Blythe but then we spent time together and it was fine. Hilary is so adorable and AWESOME because she's an Irish dancer...AMAZING! I didn't see any of it but I know she's amazing. Busch Gardens was actually pretty busy considering how cold and that it was a tuesday. Then we went to the Great Wolf Lodge where we stayed the night. We went swimming in the water park for about 2 hours. There was this ride that had 4 people on a tube and you went down and then fell a bit into this big tunnel! Danielle and Blythe had to convince me to go on it and it wasn't as bad as they said it was but when they went on it they had no idea what to expect. After we were tired of the water park we went back to the room to eat, open some amazing presents and play APPLES TO APPLES! I just bought it and brought it so we could play on the trip. It was one of the best games I played because I got lots of green cards. Usually I play to me because the cards I play are what I think is funny or what I think would be good and not what the other person would find pleasing. Whatever, it's all about me.
So you know how Great Wolf Lodge is known for it's indoor water park, well they have this interactive game that's even better! You get wands and they light up and make things work! You play to become and Master Magi!! It's sooooooo awesome. There were all these little kids running around to and Annelise and I asked some kid if he was a Master Magi and if he knew the secret. It was great. I ber people saw us running around and thought we were too old to be doing this but I didn't feel too old at all. I was very excited. It made me realize that even though I've been alive for almost 18 years, I am only 8 years old. I'm ok with that.

I try and I try to feel better about this, but I just can't. Everybody was telling me I was going to get accepted to William and Mary and I didn't want to make myself think I was because I didn't know... but... honestly... I did think I would get in.
It's just so messed up, the whole thing. Probably all of the people at Cox ranked 1-20 applied there, among other schools on their 10+ list. I'm happy for the people who got in and really want to go there, but I know people who applied there as a freaking back up school and wouldn't even consider going there. They just applied so they could say they got accepted. But they just screwed all of us on the waiting list.
I keep feeling awful for all of these thoughts. Like I'm so conceited thinking I deserved to get in and other people didn't. But, honestly, what more could I have done? Ranked 17, over 4.0 GPA, I don't know I honestly don't. Why did I try this hard for nothing? Alice is ranked 14 and she got wait-listed also. It doesn't make any sense.
And then there is Courtney. And everybody who knows Courtney knows she would have been perfect to go there. Unfortunately her grades don't necessarily depict her as the genius that she is, but if they did interviews and could just hear her vocabulary, or if they freaking read her essay better, they would have known they couldn't pass her up. It's just ridiculous.
Getting the little regular envelope in the mail was one of the worst feelings. And then having to go to school today and try to feel happy for the people who got in. The people who don't want to go there. The people who are ranked below me. The people who got in on sport scholarships. And the people who have barely taken any APs but are ranked higher.
I am sorry I sound like a bitch. It is a lot easier to just be angry instead of being upset. I think I am going to get my dad to call and see why I got wait-listed. But honestly, I am done with it. I want people to stop telling me how much better being on the wait-list is than being rejected. No, it's not any better. I don't want to hope so desperately anymore, I just want to be content or even excited about somewhere I am going. Somewhere that sees how great I've actually worked.
That's all.

"Anda la puta que te pari." "Entonces, eres señorito?" "Quieres cosquillarme Elmo?" "Hay una bomba en mis pantalones." "Pon tu penito en mi cuerpo."

I got into JMU! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
As arrogant as it sounds, I had no doubt that I would get it. But still, it's exciting to know that I have SOMEWHERE to go after high school, even if JMU might not be my first choice.
Sooooo, the bad thing is that as pointless as high school was before I got accepted, I will now just think it is even MORE pointless. I can't wait to get awaayyy from anal teachers who have no clue about what they're teaching and don't care whether we succeed or fail.
Weeeeeeeoooooo

Last night/ early early this morning, Danielle told me I had to potential to be a whore. Oh, I think every little girl wants to be told that. Her reasoning was that I am a tease and that if I had another life, yet the same personality, I could be a whore. She reassured me of course that I wasn't. In her own way I think it was a compliment, for a few sentences later she said she doesn't know why I don't have every guy. Aw, shucks Danielle.
I needed that, after my recent rejection that surprisingly didn't crush me like I thought soemthing like that would have. I'm becoming a strong woman. I think I need to join Destiny's Child now and sing some songs with them like "Survivor" and "Independent Woman part I"
Happy New Year.

Sooooo BRITTANY WEST IS FINALLY HOME! I am so happpppyyy noooowww!! Today was very busy. I got up and then I basically had time to eat breakfast and take a shower before leaving for Starbucks at the Hilton with Jaime, Danielle, and Annelise. It was nice. Then Jaime left and Danielle, Annelise, and I went to King Neptune and took AMAZING pictures with Annelise's beautiful new camera. They are soooo goooood. We got snagged on our way to King Neptune by some CRAZY black man who was definately on some drugs. He kept asking us about Paris Hilton and her whereabouts saying that if we saw her to tell her Sean was looking for her...insane. Then I went with Danielle to get her shot that was at my doctors office and went to TARGET! We got useless crap that we didn't need. I got Erin and little something for a present. Then it was off the airport to meet Brittany, but wait, no it wasn't because she was going to be late getting here so we decided to go to McArthur Mall to kill some time. Didn't get anything,sadly. After a very sad trip to McArthur, we left for the airport and it was a sressful drive because Danielle and I didn't know how to get there and were depending stronly on the signs, which aren't that clear by the way, and Danielle doubted where I was telling her to go. I ended up being right (big surprise) and we got there safely in time before Bee got home. So after being at the airport for some time we finally depart. Erin, Danielle and I go to visit Tanner to see his puppy!!!! She is sooooo cute!!! I LOVE BABY PUPPIES!! Then we just went to Erin's house to kill some time before we went to Guads at 7. That was a good time man. I saw so many lovely people. I love Chip Snyders because he makes the cutest face when I try to nuzzle him. It's funny. I miss all the college kids I used to know. Today was a good day. I like hanging out with me friends a lot. I wish I could hang out with some of my other friends that I never see though, but they never call me and I don't want to pester them if they don't want to hang out with me.
*sigh* I just made myself sad. </3 Margot

So I didn't get a lover for Christmas like I asked for, but I did find out that a friend of mine has always had a huge crush on me. That was nice to hear.
Danielle stopped by my house yesterday and re-enacted the scene in "Love Actually" where that guy, Mark, stops by Keira Knightly's house and does the big card things that you read. It was great. I loved it. I also talked to Courtney and she makes me so happy. I love talking to her on the phone, and talking to her in general. I swear, she is my other half- who gets me. I actaully really miss her right now because I haven't talked to her all day.
Got lots o' cash for Christmas. MONEY MONEY MONEY!....MONEY! Now I must go shopping. I got $60 just for Target and $110 in regular cash. That's a big jump from being practically broke. Hopefully I won't have to worry about the dough for awhile.
Last night while taking pointless quizzes, I realized 2 things: 1. I am very restless and love being socially busy, and 2. I want to go see a Psychic. I think it would be really fun. I want to see if they could actaully tell me anything, probably not but I still think it would be funny. I would be like "tell me how I am going to die" and they would be like "in your sleep", which is nice but most likely total crap.
Brittany comes home tomorrow!!!! I AM SO EXCITED! I am going to meet her at the airport among many other beautiful friends. Then we will be going to Guads at 7 for some din din. I wanted to go to the airport last night because I had a friend come home from London but no one knew when his flight was suppose to get in so I could not go, sadly. I really wanted to go because I thought it would be a nice gesture. I hate it when nice gestures don't happen, I try to take those opportunities to make a nice, big gesture. I wish more people made those. Like Danielle when she did the "Love Actually" thing, I thought that was really thoughtful and clever of her to go around to her friends house and do that. It made us laugh.
I love BSB.
