My Indian Heritage


^^ Piegan Indians ^^

I am part BlackFoot Indian (only like 2.25%) i didnt even know it until recently. Isnt that so cool? i think its fantastic!
This is from:
http://www.accessgenealogy.com/native/tribes/blackfeet/blackfeetindiantribe.htm

"The origin of the name is disputed, but it is commonly believed to have reference to the discoloring of their moccasins by the ashes of the prairie fires.
Consisting of three subtribes, the Siksika proper or Blackfeet, the Kainah or Bloods, and the Piegan.
The Blackfeet held most of the immense territory stretching almost from North Saskatchewan river, Canada, to the southern headstreams of the Missouri in Montana, and from about longitude 105° to the base of the Rocky mountains."

Thats just some facts about them.
Neato right?

Braces Removal

I HAVE MY BRACES OFF! I HAVE MY BRACES OFF!

This is such a wonderful occasion! I am so very happy i dont even know what to do with myself! Every time i pass by a mirror, i look in it and smile to reveal my pearly whites. Although i want to want to whiten them a lil more.
This is how they take them off:
First they snap off all your brackets. The wire comes off with the brackets. Then the ortho. doctor comes in, turns on this lil bitty drill thing to get off all the dried glue still on your tooth. Its very loud! She then says, "Do not move or this thing will get your gums instead of your tooth- If your tooth is sensitve, just raise your left hand and i will stop. okay?"
I say okay.
Then she uses it to get all the hard gluey stuff off your teeth. But then you say, "Hey, could you file down that tooth on the bottom? Its kinda uneven."
She says, Sure she can!!! very enthusiastically!
Except for that she doesnt say it will REALLY REALLY hurt to get your tooth filed down. So you IMMEDIATELY are waving your left arm around wildly getting her to stop.
so she does.
Then she gets the tech person to come over there and help make it less painful. The tech puts water on the tooth, and this DOES help. Some.
But anyway, you got that done, so now they give you your retainers. They show you how to get them in and out and give you lots of cute lil sparkly cases to put them in.
Then she gives you a lil bag of candy FULL of laffy taffy, which you havent eaten in OVER TWO YEARS, do to the fact they told you not to and it gets stuck in ur braces. You are just ectstatic!!! So totally happy!!!
Then the tech person takes you over and gets an xray (tho you have no idea why. you have your braces off already, how would an xray help now?), then takes these rly stupid pictures of your mouth with these GIANT plasic strecher things to keep them open. You feel REALLY stupid just then.
Then your mother comes in and both of you have you sign this release form, saying you will wear your retainer at all times, wont microwave or boil it, wont put it low enough for the dog to chew, wont wrap it in a napkin cuz you will end up throwing it away accidentaly if you do, have to pay $125 to get a new one if you lose it, etc.
So then you make an appountment for 6 weeks later to come back and get your retainer tightened if it gets loose or watever, then you leave.
Thats it.
Did i mention im happy??? cuz i am!!!!

So Interesting!



Okay I JUST learned this!
A kid at my school had on this t-shirt last week. I never thought about this, but it said:
FIXIN' TO...
THE STATE VERB OF TEXAS

And all that isnt too interesting right? But think, that means other states DONT use "fixin' to" as a verb. I use it all the time, that i nvr thought other people dont use, or even know what it means! We all around here know what it means. Like for example "I was just fixin' to do that". I couldnt even think about NOT saying it if I went to a new state. I mean, have you ever thought about that? That we are the ONLY ones who say that? wow... mind boggling! And we probly say a bunch of other hick stuff that other states dont say, if you think about it.

You all probably think im rly stupid or something now, right? But it was an epiphany, and i thought it was rly intereseting, so I thought I should share it with you.

Baby Sitting


Okay so right now Im babysitting Madi. We are watching Go! Diego! Go! and eating Cocoa Cocoa Puffs. (or Po Po Cuffs as Madi calls it. Mom thinks sometimes shes dyslectic, jk) We are eating our cereal out of giant cups instead of bowls. Its easier to clean up :)
So this is going to be a GREAT day...not. She already ran into my mom's room once WHILE I WAS STILL SLEEPING and asked her for gum. GUM!! That is the number one rule- dont wake up mom! She worked at the Hosp. last night and will be sleeping till about 1 or 2 at least. It's only 9:30! ugh....I'll be getting in trouble for that one most likely.
I hope i can hang out with some of my friends this afternoon, hit a $2 movie or somethin...

So wats happenin in yall's part of the world?

Personality type

This is my personality type: ISFJ

This is a description of my personality type:
http://www.personalitypage.com/ISFJ.html

I think it helps to know what other's personality types are. So you dont get offended so easily or so you know what to expect in a certain instance. Even what to expect from yourself....

You can take a personality test here:

Advice

Hey okay, let me give all you female readers a lil advice- and it probly is needless cuz youre probly smarter than me. Never -and I mean NEVER- shave your legs with just lotion (ik common sense right?)! I mean, lotion is okay for touch ups, but not for the initial shave. It gives you the worst Razor Burn! eeek! I um...know from experience unfourtanately.

A poem from the heart

How To Be

A petal here,
A petal there,
To be or not-
is life not fair?

A beautiful rose,
full of life,
losing petals.
A life of strife.

The rose stands tall
throughout the storm,
though petals fall,
she's in rare form.

To be or not
is not the question.
HOW TO BE
is life's direction.

I know friends care. I know they want to help. I know that when a friend says somethin that hurts your feelings, they dont do it on purpose.
But why? Why do they think they dont have to apologize when they make you hurt? Ive apologized.
I just dont get it...can someone help me understand?
