I AM LAURA NICHOLE MATTHEWS I AM A PHANTOM LOVING, LED ZEPPELIN LISTENING, SCOTLAND WANNABE WEIRDO, WHO IS IS NOT AFRAID TO BE WEIRD. INFACT I EMBRACE IT WITH OPEN ARMS.
originaly i was just saying that to be funny and be well a smart @$$ but then affter reading it i realized it was true. i am kind of wird and i do not mind being weird the least bit. affter all what is the fun in being normal (then again there is that whole argument of what is normal but that is for another blog post) i love being who i am..that silly little christain girl who is a phantom loving, led zeppelin listeingng, scotland wannabe wirdo. why would i want to change. and affter all who would want me to change. i donno if this blog even has a point..maybe i just wanted to post my rant but whatever i like it.....

drifters
so unfortanitly i was unable to go to the movie last night. But i spent the night with my family instead and we celebrated my brothers birthday (3 days early). my grandma come over and we had cake and all that good stuff. then we drove my grandma home.
me and my dad had an intresting conversation on the ride home affter droping the grandma off. there was dead silence in the car. the radio was not on or anything, my dad asked me what i was thinking. i was actually thinking of people that i have only meet once or have not seen since camp or kindergarden. i was and i still sometimes find myself wondering what they are doing now, were they live, and how there life is going. it is kind of funny how many people just seem to drift in and out of our life. it is also sort of cool how we seem to remember thoes people and wonder how much of a difference or impact they might have made in our lives.
there is this one girl i remember from grade 3, unfortanitly i cannot remember her name right now. but i do remember that we used to hang out alot we would go running acrosse the feild, chassing affter our frinds and have them come chassing back after us, but then at the end of that year she moved and i did not really hear from her again.
then there are frinds that i remember vividly that whent down the wrong path, turned to drugs and then moved away and i wonder what they are up to know and if there was anything that i could do or that i could still do to get them out of that direction.
it just seems odd to me to think that at one point you can know a person who is a really close frind of yours, or you can have strong feelings for and then they can leave or somewere down the road you dont realy know or they arnt really your friend anymore.. and do they wonder about you.
ya well thoes are my thoughts for right now. hope every one is having a great day.

Gary jules lyrics- mad world
Artist: Gary Jules
LyricsSong: Mad World Lyrics
All around me are familiar facesWorn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow No tommorow, no tommorow
And I find it kind of funnyI find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've
ever hadI find it hard to tell you'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circlesIt's a very, veryMad World
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listenWent to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew meHello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

phantom fan
Hey. I’m not obsessed with star wars, or Lord of the rings
And I don't root for r/c, or e/m, or e/o.
And I don't really care for charlotta, pangi or meg from the story, although I'm certain they're, really nice.
A cool weapon is a punjabb, not a gun
Erik is supposed to have a French accent, NOT American. and I call 'HIM ERIK', NOT THE PHANTOM
I can proudly play music of the night on the piano. I believe Christine should have been with Erik, NOT Raoul. Inner beauty, NOT apperance, AND THAT THE ORGAN IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE INSTRUMENT
CHRISTINE DOES LOVE ERIK, RAOUL IS A FOP, AND IT IS PRONOUCED ERIK NOT ERIC', ERIK!!!
PHANTOM IS A CLASSIC GASTON LEROUX NOVEL! THE LONGEST RUNING MUSICAL AND THE GREATIST LOVE STORY OF ALL TIME
MY NAME IS LAURA!! AND I AM A PHANTOM FAN!!!!!!!!

creativity in boredom
so on tuesday i was compleatly bored out of my mind. so i decided i was going to do what i think almost any normal bored teenager would do. i signed on to msn. and i started talking to people.. one of thoes people was matt schmidt (sorry if you last name is spellt wrong. i will edit it if it is). and he was telling me how late some of his home work was because he was a big procrastinator. and i was like wow i thought i procrastinated alot but you are worse then me you should get some kind of award. and anyway the conversation continued on that topic and then i decided to make matt a "biggist procastinator award" which was hand drawn. so i did that. i drew a pretty cool award,i think. and i coloured it and i put it in an envolpe which i coloured red because hey all the cool awards are in red envelops.
i also filled up the envelpe with spakeling things. matt seemed to enjoy it and as far as i know he still has the "award" in his binder and has been taking it to his classes.. he he at least now he has the proffe that he is a procrastinator so that he can give all his teachers a fare warning.
well that is about all i have to talk about right now hope you all are well.
oh and a little up date on me..i got a job a tim hortons so yay. i finaly get to start earning money and not just getting it handed to me any more ( that is if you dont count baby sitting)

thought..school..?
yay more random thoughts but this involves reader participation.. so if you can give me you thoughs
some people say that school is a good thing becasue it allows us to make friends, have many experiences and learn some things that we would not be able to learn or know otherwise. well others are on the side that argues that the world is a sad place if people are "fourced" to go to school just so that they will be able to support themselfs and live a normal life. what is your opinion on this statement.
there are deffinantly alot of experiences that we have had at school and the truth is that the hole time that we spent in school with our frinds and such has really shaped who we are.. so here is another question
were do you think you would be or what do you think you would be doing now if there was not school.. ? (if there was no such thing as school)

The coat hanger
so i got sent this story in an e-mail and i liked it so i thought i would post it here..enjoy
A woman was at work when she received a phone call that her small daughter was very sick with a fever. She left her work and stopped by the pharmacy to get some medication. She got back to her car and found that she had locked her keys in the car.
She didn't know what to do, so she called home and told the baby sitter what had happened. The baby sitter told her that the fever was getting worse. She said, "You might find a coat hanger and use that to open the door." The woman looked around and found an old rusty coat hanger that had been left on the ground, possibly by someone else who at some time had locked their keys in their car. She looked at the hanger and said, "I don't know how to use this."
She bowed her head and asked God to send her help. Within five minutes a beat up old motorcycle pulled up, with a dirty, greasy, bearded man who was wearing an old biker skull rag on his head. The woman thought, "This is what you sent to help me?" But, she was desperate, so she was also very thankful.
The man got off his cycle and asked if he could help. She said, "Yes, my daughter is very sick. I stopped to get her some medication and I locked my keys in my car. I must get home to her. Please, can you use this hanger to unlock my car?" He said, "Sure."
He walked over to the car, and in less than a minute the car was opened. She hugged the man and through her tears she said,"Thank You So Much! You are a very nice man.
" The man replied, "Lady, I am not a nice man. I just got out of prison today. I was in prison for car theft and have only been out for about an hour." The woman hugged the man again and with sobbing tears cried out loud, "Oh, Thank you God! You even sent me a Professional!"

.........?
random title i know but i think this is mainly going to be a rant with a bit of confusion so i was unsure what to put for a title. so today for comparative civilizations we went on a feid trip which was lots of fun and we learnd some cool things. but i do not think it was thoes things that really stuck with me on the trip. on the bus ride back to the ferry i saw people listeng to their ipod's, girls playing hand games, friends talking, and other people sleeping and other people just being goofs singing to the johnny cash music that was blaring out the speakers.
and i think it is memories like that, that will still stick with me when i am older. ..liz wrote a blog earlyer asking why is it that we seem to remember the bad stuff more then the bad (sorry if i interprated that blog wrong) well i am one of thoes people who loves to people watch.. i love to see how others interact and intace thoes memories . memories of friends laughing on the bus,..being goofs singing to johnny cash, going and getting slurpies. or just sitting in a hot tub and having a good conversation. (hot tubs are excellent for that buy the way..have a friend who has a hot tub and you want to have a good conversation raid their house and do it)
wow i just lost my train of thought.......ummm like i commented on liz's blog lots of times we remember the bad stuff because it is more shoking to us..and it has been scientificly proven that, that stuff is just easier to remember. and sometimes all we can do is intake the good memories and drown out the bad... i am sure if every one who is reading this were to try right now to come up with ten good memories and then try to come up with ten bad memories it will be easier to come up with the bad memories.
when i am old and possible i have grandchildren i hope i can be one of thoes people who has cool stories to tell them. about the me and sarah went through the car wash, or the time i feel down a clif.. wow this blog is random.. i was thinking about this more in detail on the bus i wish that i had writien it down..but i did not have a pen. .... oh well maybe more of it will come back to me later and i can write more....
dont you find that anoying when their is something you want to say and you lose your train of thougt and forget what you wanna say. i need to start carrying a pen and note pad with me so that, that does not happen any more. any way hope you all have a great day or night

cliff
story time every one this one is the story of the day that i feel down a clif. it was painfull and my fault too, but hey it makes a good story.
ok it happend this month last year. my friend natasha was staying with me because her mom and her step dad were off on their honey moon. it was a sort of rany affternoon and my mom told me and natasha to go and walk the dog. so we put on her leash and headed off. i was telling her tthat their was a beach acesess around my neibourhood. but there is a clif that we would have to climb down to get to it. (can you see were this is going). but there used to be a rope and i thought it was still there and i thought that we could climb down .....with the dog...well wearing shoes with no grip...on a rainy day...well i forgot my cell phone at home (can you say dumb idea!!). any way natasha thought that we could give it a try.
so we walked down to the beach acess. and natasha looked down the clif and she was the smart one who told me that maybe if we are going to climb down the clif we should tie the dog to a tree and see if we can make it without her before we try well taking her down. (i have a small sketched out dog so we would of had to carry down because she would be to affraid to climb down by her self). just to give u guys an idea of the cliff that i fell down. you know when you go on the bc ferrys heading to vancouver and you look to your left as it is pulling out and you can see that big sign that says cable....ya that was the cliff that i fell down. anyway the rope was no longer there so natasha decided to go down first. she got down easy did not trip or stumple or slid at all. seeing her do this i thought well that looks easy i can do this.
so i started to climb down. i was sliding down the dirt a little bit, and then when i was about half way down a lost my grip and i started to fall. oh and to make things worse i was more on my stomach then anything and i could not see were i was going. and there was a board with a nail sticking out of it on the bottem. luckaly natasha was fast she managed to slow me down and prevent me from landing on the board with the nail in it. oh sounds like the story is over but nope its not. once i wiped off my hands and made sure i was ok. me and natasha realized two things one it was impossible to go back up the way we came and two the tide was comming in. we ended up walking along the beach untill we saw an easier way up but this way was coverd with bushes. we ended up bush wacking our way up but first we had to take off out shoes because they had no grip at all and we were passing them up to each other well we climbed. we finaly go up and got back to the dog and walked home.
we were both wet, tired and pretty dirty. and i learned something from that experience. never leave without a cell phone, were shoes that you can climb in, and just becasue your friend can do something that looks easy does not mean that you can. ok hope you enjoyed this

(i have a small sketched out dog so we would of had to carry down because she would be to affraid to climb down by her self). just to give u guys an idea of the cliff that i fell down. you know when you go on the bc ferrys heading to vancouver and you look to your left as it is pulling out and you can see that big sign that says cable....ya that was the cliff that i fell down. anyway the rope was no longer there so natasha decided to go down first. she got down easy did not trip or stumple or slid at all. seeing her do this i thought well that looks easy i can do this.
so i started to climb down. i was sliding down the dirt a little bit, and then when i was about half way down a lost my grip and i started to fall. oh and to make things worse i was more on my stomach then anything and i could not see were i was going. and there was a board with a nail sticking out of it on the bottem. luckaly natasha was fast she managed to slow me down and prevent me from landing on the board with the nail in it. oh sounds like the story is over but nope its not. once i wiped off my hands and made sure i was ok. me and natasha realized two things one it was impossible to go back up the way we came and two the tide was comming in. we ended up walking along the beach untill we saw an easier way up but this way was coverd with bushes. we ended up bush wacking our way up but first we had to take off out shoes because they had no grip at all and we were passing them up to each other well we climbed. we finaly go up and got back to the dog and walked home.
we were both wet, tired and pretty dirty. and i learned something from that experience. never leave without a cell phone, were shoes that you can climb in, and just becasue your friend can do something that looks easy does not mean that you can. ok hope you enjoyed this

love
love...we all have experienced it in some form or another, well all would agree that love is a good thing.. but i was thinking what is love, what does love mean. that word seems to be thrown around too much and these days. its signifigance is starting to wear down and the true meaning of what love is seems to be forgoten.
i looked it up and according to the dictionary love is :
1 a (1) : strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties
(2) : attraction based on sexual desire : affection and tenderness felt by lovers
(3) : affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests b : an assurance of love 2 : warm attachment, enthusiasm, or devotion 3 a : the object of attachment, devotion, or admiration b (1) : a beloved person : DARLING -- often used as a term of endearment (2) British -- used as an informal term of address
(4) a : unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another: as (1) : the fatherly concern of God for humankind (2) : brotherly concern for others b : a person's adoration of God
(5) : a god or personification of love
so my question is what does love mean to you?
