Poem I wrote (about Ashley)

This poem is about after Ashley died.

My Loss, Not Hers

Just the day before
I gazed upon her face,
pale,
yet peaceful.

Tears stream down
my cheeks
today.
As everything is
shared
that I never even knew.

I learned more
in those two days
than I did
in two years
as her friend.

I watched her grow up
in pictures,
something
I didn’t see
for myself.

Our families were close,
and time flew by
when we came together.
Then schedules changed,
and there was no time.

I hadn’t seen her
for so long,
and now
we’ll never
talk again.

It feels so odd
that she’s
u
n
d
e
r
g
r
o
u
n
d.

But,
as her pastor said,
we are crying
for our loss,
not hers,
for she has no pain.

Tears stream down
my cheeks
today,
for my loss
not hers.

I will see her
in heaven.

Hey.....

I'm going to Jazz band soon so not much time. I might not have been clear yesterday with everything that I said. My life's been really hectic and all and it's kinda hard to keep things straight. So now I have new available things to post around. I have new song lyrics I can publish, I can post my Social Studies essays, I can post my poetry, and soon enough, swim times after my meets. (I do summer teams.) So if there's anything you want posted that I listed, just comment. I love to hear from y'all. (yes, the southern part of my blog title is true) Um, well, my little sis is leaving for school. My mom works now. She's not home usually until like 6:00 or something. I get home usually by 4:30. Ah, well. I don't know what to say anymore. I'll have to update you on Kate Fang and friends later. COMMENT PLEASE!!!!!!!!

OMG! So Long!

When was the last time I posted? Like, months ago! I'm in Jazz Band now, a jerk has the baritone sax that I wanted, 2 friends have died, my friends are trying to force a boyfriend on me! Gosh, let me start at Jazz band! I play tenor and we had our concert like a month ago. We played Oye Como Va and Sentemental Journey, for middle school levels of course. Now, we're working on super hard festival peices and they have all these 16th notes and solos and what not! I'm so fustrated! And now I play my tenor at church and Palm Sunday is this week! I am playing the hardest song ever. Ugh. I need to put it on Fanalie and hear it before I even try. T.J, the sucky oboe player, took bari sax from me! *sniffle* I have to admit he sounds pretty good but he counldn't get out the low notes for forever! To the friends. I'm so into the Relay for Life and all the "walk for a Cure" stuff because I now know what it's like to lose someone to cancer, 2 in fact. One was 13 and it was pretty obvious she wouldn't make it after it came back 2 months later. The other was a lot older and had been fighting it for a while. I cried so much when Ashley died (the 13 year old). If you think it won't happen to you or someone close, think again! It happend in my life 5 weeks apart. It's serious. Fight for a cure! To the boyfriend thing and the final subject. My friends found out that I've never had a boyfriend or ever gone on a date. Now they're all over me at luch going, "We're going to hook you up with a guy and you'll be so cute together!" and everything. They won't leave me alone! Advise here anyone? (don't say that I sould tell them I don't want one because I tried and they won't have it!) Ok, I guess that's it. Post comments with advise and, well, comments! I like feedback!

Explination

You peoples are probably wondering why my account is nudgetwinsis. Well, i happen to be a huge fan of the Maximum Ride series that rocks your socks! (if you're not wearing socks, it rocks your invisible neon green socks) Well, Nudge is my favorite character and we're so amazingly alike! Thus, my name around here. Well, there's no more to explain. Just comment a lot and start reading Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment.

Fang and Nudge

Nudge: Helloooooooooo people! Introducing ...
Fang: The fabulous Fang.
Nudge: Who is a girl. Anyhoo. We are here to make a Thanksgiving post!
Fang: Nudge is eating din-din with us!
Nudge: Remeber, this is being typed in exact words!
Fang: Bring it on!
Nugde: huh?
Fang: It's alright Nudge, we'll take it slow for ya.
Nudge: HEY!
Fang: Hey is for horses...
Nudge: Hey!
Fang: But straw is cheeper and grass is free.
Nudge: Where'd you get that from
Fang: I have no idea. I wish I remembered. IDK? My BFF Jill?
Nudge: There.
Fang: There. Believe it or not I'm not a blonde! But I was in a past life!
Nudge: Yes..........yes you were.
Fang: LOL
Nudge: This is getting boring. let's go play my Wii.
Fang; Bring it on!!!! I will so kick your but 'till next Thanksgiving!!!!!.....
Nudge: Oh you are SO on!!!

Bored

I am so bored that I'm creating a post. Oh, my dad is bribing me to clean my room with Hannah Montanna/Jonas Brothers Concert tickets my friend could give me since she couldn't come to my birthday party. Should I take it? Comment to answer!!! I want to know that you're reading my blog!
On a side note, my jewelry was a big hit at my church's Fall Bazzar. I raised $119 with just that. In total, we raised about $500. It rocks your socks! (if your not wearing socks it rocks your invisible socks!)
You people need to post comments! I can't get on you enough about that! There's one person who has posted comments on one entry. You peoples!!!! I need to know that you're reading! If only there was a way I could look to see how many hits I get. Unfortunately I'm not a computer genious and won't get my dad to do it because he might get mad at me for the possibility that an online predator might be out to get me. I think he just got home with my little sis. Tell you about her some time!

Rock-a-thon

I forgot to tell you guys about my school's annual music program fundraiser. Here's how it goes: We get people to make pleadges to contribute to our music programs. Then, we bring rocking chairs to our school. The day after that we stay at school to rock in out rocking chairs for 6 hours! We get pizza and candy and carbonated drinks like Coca-Cola. It's one of those times you can go absolutly crazy and no one will care. Oh, I have to tell you the best part! Well there's this game we play there every year called Salie says. (sa-lee, a is short, not like sail or sailee) Well, this year Miss Salie had begun teaching band at another school. So one of the parents there said over the microphone, "It's time to play Salie says!" So we're all like thay still call it that? What a joke! So were all about to stand up when we hear, "Now let's play Salie says!!!" And we all turned to look at the door and Miss Salie comes trotting in! (I know it was kindda obvious that that was going to happen but it was awesome anyways) Right then, all the band kids jump up and start clapping, cheering, screaming, or some combination of those. The noise was deafening! After we played the game, all the band kids who had her last year came up to attack her and giver her a hug. I am one of those few lucky enough to see her again at UGA Band Midfest/Clinc. I feel so hapy!!!! Rock-a-thon is nothing until you're acctually there for the first time! You would pay anything to see vids of us being crazy, especially the eigth graders last night. You'll never know.
