Fireworks outside my window.

Howdy! Okay, that was L-A-M-E. Let's start over.

Hey guys! It's Rickkie Swan. I'm really happy! My friend invited me to ride bikes with him to the high school tomorrow. Haha. I love riding bikes. Too bad my mom's broke. It's a really nice red one with really cool wheels. Right now I'm using my dad's. It's good, but I like my mom's. Once my dad fixes it, my brother and I can go riding around. Oh well.

Anyways. So my friend invited me to go ride bikes to the high school. I'm pretty excited. I've only been to the High school twice, so it'll be a new experience to RIDE BIKES to it. My brother and I will probably be doing that for a few weeks next year. Haha. He'll probably hate it, but I think I'll like it. Well, I've never actually ridden a bike with a backpack on, so I think it'll be something fun to try out. Haha.

Speaking of bikes, I love beach cruisers! I've been looking for a beach cruiser for like FOREVER. I want one so bad. Especially an orange one :P
Orange is my favorite color, if you haven't noticed. :P

Okay, I need to go to bed now.
Later, hater.

Sunday-Night Slam Down.

Hey guys!
I don't have very long to talk because my Home-Teachers are coming like, now.
haha.

So I'm writting a story called One Word. It's about this guy who's twin sister was kidnapped and they have like this physic connection with each other. They can feel each others pain, emotions, and best of all, they can like, talk to eacother through their minds... do you know what I mean?
Eh, anyways, they can only "say" one word to eachother though.

Yeah, after i fix it, i'll post the prologue.

Bohemian Raphsody

I love this song. It's just amazing how Freddie used all of the beats.


Is this the real life-
Is this just fantasy-
Caught in a landslide-
No escape from reality-
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see-
Im just a poor boy,i need no sympathy-
Because Im easy come,easy go,
A little high,little low,
Anyway the wind blows,doesnt really matter to me,
To me

Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now hes dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now Ive gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didnt mean to make you cry-
If Im not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-

Too late,my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine-
Bodys aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody-Ive got to go-
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth-
Mama ooo- (any way the wind blows)
I dont want to die,
I sometimes wish Id never been born at all-

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango-
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me-
Galileo,galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico-
But Im just a poor boy and nobody loves me-
Hes just a poor boy from a poor family-
Spare him his life from this monstrosity-
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go-
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go-
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no-
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go-
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me-

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye-
So you think you can love me and leave me to die-
Oh baby-cant do this to me baby-
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here-

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows....

Umbrellas on a Sunny Day.

Hey everybody.
Usually by now, I would've neglected my blog, and never written anything. But I really like this blog. It's pretty awesome.

It's because I like to talk. And tell people things. I also like hearing about peoples days. I like knowing they're happy. And trying to help.

Here's a deal, tell me what makes you happy. What gets you up in the morning. It could be anything. What are the 5 things that just makes you feel good inside?

I'll tell you what makes me happy.
1: I love rain. I love the smell(even though that sounds odd), the noise it makes, and just how wet it is.
2: My friends. They are my life support. I don't know what I would do if I lost my friends(again)! There's never a day that I wish one of my friends WEREN'T my friends. Period.
3: Laughing. It's the best thing to cheer anyone up, I think. I love how no matter what happens in life, you will always laugh again.
4: My family. They know what I like, and Know what I don't like.
5: Someone telling me I look beautiful. Not just beautiful, maybe even Pretty, or Cool.

So go ahead! Share what makes you happy.
It can be from, Wearing a helmet, to drinking soda. Running around with friends, to using an umbrella on a sunny day. Whatever makes you happy, I want to know. Maybe we'll have something in common, who knows!

Lyrics To Tree Huger.

Hey guys! This is one of my favorite songs.
I know most of it, I just need to find out the French part :P

Here it is.

TREE HUGER by Kimya Dawson.

The flower said I wish I was a tree,
The tree said I wish I could be
A different kind of tree.
The cat wished that it was a bee.
The turtle wished that it could fly,
Really high into the sky.
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea.

(chorus)
And in the sea there is a fish.
A fish that has a secret wish.
A wish to be a big cactus,
With a pink flower on it.

And in the sea there is a fish.
A fish that has a secret wish.
A wish to be a big cactus,
With a pink flower on it.

And the flower
Would be its offering
Of love to the desert.
And the desert,
So dry and lonely,
That the creatures all
Appreciate the effort.

Et le chacalot a dit:
"Je voudrais être un yéti
Pour voler dans la nuit
Et m'envoler loin d'ici"
Mais le yéti a dit:
"Je veux être un monstre marin
Pour pouvoir sauter dans la mer
De tous les requins"

And the rattlesnake said,
"I wish I had hands so
I could hug you like a man."
And then the cactus said,
"Don't you understand,
My skin is covered with sharp spikes
That'll stab you like a thousand knives.
A hug would be nice,
But hug my flower with your eyes."

The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
The tree said, "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree,
The cat wished that it was a bee,
The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky,
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea.

And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.
And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.

And the flower
Would be its offering
Of love to the desert.
And the desert,
So dry and lonely,
That the creatures all
Appreciate the effort.

"You're pretty much the coolest person i've ever met, and you don't have to try." -Juno

I should probably be sleeping right now.
But there's been SO much on my mind that, I can't sleep. I'm not going to talk about it, but I still need to think about stuff other than what's keeping me awake.

So, I'm going to girl's camp wensday. Oh, i need to pack for that... It's going to be pretty exciting.
Other than the fact that my ordered chucks won't be here till the DAY I leave for it. How cruel is that? I mean, I'll have to wait 3 extra days, and who knows if my family will keep them closed. You know, I shouldn't be this mad. I'm really excited for it. I should be thinking about how happy i'll be to see Platypus for 3 DAYS SOLID and eat yummy camp food, and talk all night about the fun things we did in camp.

I really shouldn't bother about what keeps squeezing back into my mind. I have so many more things to be thinking about, it's not funny. What with school, girls camp, all the family and friends visiting, church... Everything. It shouldn't be so high up on my list of things to think about. Ever. I mean-- augh!!

Please don't ask about it.

About girls camp. I'm so EXCITED. It's unfathomable how excited I am. Honestly. We also get hoodies that are RED! I would've been happier if they were orange, but, oh well. They still must BE AWESOME!
We made shirts for my last year (insert smile here.)(where is smile?)(gosh dang it.)(I hate my life.)(Scratch that, I hate being distracted.)(Gyah!! i'm being distracted again.)(bye.). It was pretty spifftacular. TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL.

The sad thing is, my friend Tiffers(Rambo the first) is leaving sunday. I'm pretty much absolutely depressed. I'm going to miss my Rambo friend. We've actually never seen rambo. We just always wear bandannas like rambo did, and Dicky called us Rambo. So we were like GO TEAM RAMBO! and it stuck. I'm sorry, we're weird.

My sheets are like, spazing out. I leave my house with a nice sheet(as in put on all the corners, if you understand what i'm saying..) and come back and the sheets halfway off. L-A-M-E.

I think i'm so bored i'm going to write a list of all my best friends.
Girls:
Platypus.
Weser.
Adnarim.
Manager.
Rambo I.
Rowdy. (ray ray)
Fairy Mae.
Guys.
Charlie Brown. (Day Day)
5.
Max.
(uhh....)(I can't think of ANYONE.)


I guess that's all...
I think I can truely call them my BEST friends. Really. My whole 8th grade year was, bull, you could say.

Okay, so I guess you should know, that i ABSOLUTELY ADORE Grease. The musical.
It's amazing.
I've never seen it, but I love Wicked, also.
I'm kindof warming up to Les Miserables.(is that how you spell it? Idk... augh. Where're my musical-loving friends when I need them?)(only heard songs.)
And, though i've only heard a couple songs, I really like Jekyll and Hyde.

But my non-musical favorite songs are:
Almost Lovers.
I hate this song.(title of song.)
7 things.(It's miley cirus, but it's the only song I like of her.)
The whole entire Juno soundtrack.
Sugar, we're going down.
Roots before Branches.

There are others but I just can't think at 12:30 anymore.


I really should be sleeping...
Eh. Whatever.
I don't give a batman.

Oh oh oh!
The joker is AMAZING!
"I can make this pencil disappear."
SLAM!
haha.
"Why so serious?"
That's actually really morbid.
And gross.
I almost screamed really loud.

Augh.

Here's a quote that my friend gave me, and it makes me happy... Really happy :D

"So much of me comes from what i've learned from you, You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart. And so whatever way our stories end, just know you have rewritten mine by being my friend... Who can say if I've been changed for the better? No, i've believe i have been changed for good." -Wicked.

I can't explain to you how awesome that makes me feel. I don't care if he's said it to a bunch of people, I just care that he sent that to me.
He's really my best friend, I can honestly say that. Him and P.




Yeah...

I guess I'll go now.

Have a good day, my friends.
-Cor Cor.

For my Spahshal friend.

Hello Everybody!
Tis Your favorite hippo friend.

guess what!

MY FRIEND GOT A BLOG!
yay.

Chuck Taylor Converse!

Are the best thing ever created in the fifties. Well, other than those late fifties dresses. :D I have been known through the year as the girl with the orange chucks. ORANGE! is the most amazing chuck color ever! See, i'm not known for my Awesome writing skills, or my singing(ha!). No, I'm known as the girl that wears her orange chucks with anything. No joke. I'm always wearing those. Sometimes I wear flip-flops when it's not the day to wear chucks, but Oh, well.
Do you think it's wrong that you don't want your friend to get orange chucks after seeing your own? Is that like, really mean? Because, what if they're your thing? Please, write your beliefs in a comment.

Batman=<3

Though Creepy at many times, I absolutely LOVED Batman: The Dark Knight. I've never enjoyed such a freaky movie. See, I'm not one with the Scary movies. They just make me have nightmares. But this movie was amazing. Heath Ledger and Christian Bail(how do you spell his last name?) are the best Joker/Batman pair ever used. Ledger had that twisted, freakish Joker character down to the dot, and Bail knew how to work it as batman. :D Too bad Ledger died. He would've been a great Joker if they made any other ones.
My brother doesn't think there'll be Joker in the movies now that Ledger's dead, but I think they'll just find someone who can do what he did. Have you seen all the Batman actor's? There are so many, why not just get a new joker! They should just do that... Yeah.
Speaking of Christian Bail, He's in terminator Salvation!!!
Oh yeah! I'm so happy! I love terminator and he'll be a great John Connor. I hope it's not rated R like the other ones. Heehee. Don't worry, I watched the edited ones. :D Haha, my other brother and I were joking that they should have Arnold Shwartzinegar Clones through-out the whole movie. It was hilarious!
Well, I'm going to go now.
Later, hater.

Swan Central

((Props to max for the awesome title today))

By reading this blog, you are taking yourself into a world only known to my family, and few of my friends. You will hear of many things that i think are funny though you might think is very random. So, if you dare, go ahead and read.

Ello! My name is Courtney, but please, call me Rickkie. I am pretty much the weirdest person you will ever meet.
My hair is never down.
Unless I feel like I want it to be. It's usually in a bun. I am member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I pretty much FLIPPING love it.

My favorite word is Flipping. I have a fetish for anything orange. Especially my orange chucks. :D But sadly, they are becoming old and wearing out. But don't fear, I customized new ones and they are one their way. But they're not all orange, even though when I have the money, I'm totally making new orange ones :D

I hate it when people wink at me. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. So please, never do it to me or I will scream. Just ask my friends.

I have the most AMAZING family on the face of the planet. And the best ward ever. And don't mind me if I flip out once in a while. It's just what I do.

So, I must go, Max is waiting for me to post it.
Later!
