Segway and Segue are not the same, even though they sound the same.

Alright! So I've set myself a goal, and this one I'm making an effort to meet. I told myself back in June that I was going to do the impossible- I was going to finish all of my summer homework by the beginning of July. Like I said, I knew it was impossible, and I failed to meet the goal. So now, I've given myself until Friday, July 30 to finish everything, and so far, it's looking like I can do it. So I'm kind of excited for this. Hopefully, my easily distractedness won't get the best of me.
Speaking of being easily distracted, I've downloaded Plants vs. Zombies, one of the best games ever! It's so much fun, and it really provides a challenge. During the summer, I really don't know why, but I tend to do more things that work my brain than I do during the school year. I guess it's because when I'm at school, I already use my brain a lot, so when I don't during the summer, I tend to lean towards watching Cash Cab, and playing strategy or word games. But the weird thing- I love to read, but during the summer, I really just can't seem to sit down and read a book like I can during the school year. Maybe it's because books become a better distraction for me during the school year, while in the summer, I have plenty of other distractions. I don't know. It was just a guess.
And, while I'm thinking of Cash Cab (I'm segueing quite awesomely), I really have been watching a lot of TV lately. One of my favorite shows is America's Got Talent. It's really a lot of fun to watch people do amazing things :) Anyway, right now the top 48 contestants are preforming live in Hollywood, and these are the three I voted for last night- Future Funk (so adorable!), Fighting Gravity (mind blowing!), and Nathaniel Kenyon (this is his Las Vegas audition- he was sick during the top 48 one, and besides, this one is better. He's pretty good). Can't wait for tonight's performances!
And, I almost lost my ability to segue. But I just remembered where I was going, so I stopped segueing and just changed topics :)
So I've been listening to a lot of music this week, and I've decided that I enjoy The Fall of Troy, Go:Audio, and You Me At Six, along with kind of... rediscovering, I guess you could say, Cute Is What We Aim For and Attack Attack! (not to be confused with Attack! Attack!). I'll just put one of my favorites by per band up here...

yup. Right! I was going to talk about my ant bites next :)
I'm really allergic to ants, so when I get bit, the bites swell up a lot. Which kind of sucks. Anyway, so I got one right below my big toe, and it swelled up and conquered my entire foot (this is not an exaggeration), and then I have two on my other foot almost right next to each other, and while they haven't expanded too much, they're super itchy. So, yesterday, while I was working on my homework, I started drawing (it's actually very hard to draw on your feet. Who'd have thought?!) I drew ants attacking my feet where the bites were, and then, I drew one stick figure per ant, complete with it's own sword, shield, and angry face, and called them the Anti-Itch Warriors. Yesterday, two of them were battling it out with two ants, while the other one couldn't get past the giant force field that safely contained one huge ant. Today, that force field was destroyed, and the ant is on the run. On the other foot (heh), the ants have been destroyed, and the Warriors are in the process of containing the poison from the bites, and will (hopefully) finish the job tomorrow >:]
So kids, the moral of that story is, "don't stay inside too long. You could go crazy." Maybe I'll go to the park tomorrow.
