the update on kate

*editor's note - please don't ever call me kate again, it just rhymed so i went with it...

hello all! how's it been? long time no talk, i know. seems with school and.. umm homework and ... cleaning my room and... ummmmmm ... ok, i don't have too many great excuses about why i haven't been posting lately. nor do i promise that this will be a good post. it's just that i came across my blog today, and it looked so lonely and sad! no comments, no posts in so long! it was crying to me, crying out! "write in me please katelyn! don't leave me alone again!" (-insert squeeky voice here-). so i just had to oblige.

so, you ask, what have i really been up to all this time?

well faithfull readers, i shall fill you all in...

two weeks ago were midterms, and i did surprisingly well on those! i'm passing all my classes as of now, with the following marks on my last home report;

english - 81
fi math - 84
fi ancient history - 72
hpe - 78
visual arts - 93

woohoo! seems all the work and no... play (aka - blogging) has payed off! except for the fact that there was still some play.. haha.

other than that... mostly family dumb stuff. mom has a new boyfriend, jason, who has been hanging around a lot lately.

he's quite the weird kid. but if i were to pick between him and the b-word i suppose i would pick him, but it's not much of a selection, that much is gaurenteed. it's like, with jason, he is so scared that i wont like him or something, that he is constantly trying to be this insanely happy likeable guy, even when it's completely obvious he isn't. not to mention the fact that he has three daughters, 2, 6 and 9, the middle of which stepped on my toe and called me a skank... oh yea, did i forget to mention that they're complete brats!?

and then there is xmas. which is fastly approaching. with it comes the terribly cold weather and the winter depression or whatever you would like to call it. you know what i'm taking about. that terrible sick-but-not-quite-sick-i-hate-school-and-don't-want-to-go-today-or-get-out-of-bed feeling. well, it got hold of me, for quite a bit, during my summer-to-winter transition. but after a morning home playing video games with my dad and the first bit of snow, i was fine. which is good, because i was starting to wonder!

so yes, xmas is very soon. and i need to start buying frigging christmas presents! for myself, of course :).

anyhow, this was a quick entry between homework assignments and loads of laundry. i'm hoping to start writing at least four times a week again... stay tuned!

it's not that i hate you, i just forget

I know I won't always remember,
But please don't let me forget
Every day we spend apart,
Softly easing tendered hearts
Burning hate like cigarettes.

And don't forget my smile,
As you sit and blanky stare
Because I can't forget the way,
Your smile seemed to say
And promise you'd be there.

Remember the time we made the dolls?
Yea, unfortunately neither do I
Pipe cleaners and looseleaf sheets,
Mix in with nostalgic heartbeats
Why don't you ever try?

I know I won't always remember,
But I don't want to wait and see
My memories; slowly fading,
Thoughts; dissintegrating
Broken hearts left out to bleed.
