Detoxes don't work.

So today, Julia and I thought it would be a good idea to start a detox diet so we could thoroughly clean our systems out before starting our life in a healthier way. The diet says to start out by drinking a glass of lemon water. Julia and I couldn't even finish it. It tasted so bad! Then we had to drink a glass with flaxseeds. That also wasn't good tasting, and I gagged twice. For breakfast, I had an apple and a strawberry. After that I couldn't stand a growling stomach so I caved and ate a couple of eggos. But trying was insanely difficult. Yesterday I laid out for three hours and got terribly burned with margaret. My whole body burns today, and I'm watching Aquamarine. I'm also trying to write my book (again) but paying attention isn't possible. Plus, I'm reading my books for school. It's a joy. I also road a bike yesterday but I feel like a fattie, always and I don't like it.

I forgot.


So this is me and my sister JULIA. Yesterday we sang Pocahontas and dressed up. It was a very exciting night but she got mad at me for forgetting to Blog yesterday, so here I am now. Yesterday, besides making videos/taking pictures of my dress-up party with Julia, I read a lot of my books. I read one at night and one during the day (good thing the stories are completely different.) Anyway, I had a pretty fun time yesterday shopping with my friend Ryan, my mom, Julia, and Margaret. Then I ate dinner and had a pretty fun time. Today I got to enjoy Chick-fil-a and I had a pretty good time working out and swimming. The only sad thing is that at the beginning of summer I got very tan and now it's fading because I'm never outside so my goal for tomorrow is to get up early for once in my life and actually get to the pool. I have a bad habit of going to bed at like 3 am and then waking up at noon or later. I also went to church tonight, where I went swimming and talked to some friends about scary movies, which I absolutely love. Something about being able to watch a movie that doesn't have important junk in it or a romance story is amazing to me, even though people in scary movies always have a boyfriend/girlfriend. Get real, EVERYONE IS SINGLE. Especially me, I'm a loner. But that's the way I like it. It makes focusing a lot easier. I just got home and I'm hopefully going to work on my book and by books for school, since it's coming up. I am SO not excited for school, and I'm not looking forward to all of the adults I know trying to make small talk by reminding me and asking, "So you ready for school?" or "School starts soon are you upset about that?" Of course I'm upset about it you weirdo, what kind of question is that? "No, I'M NOT READY FOR SCHOOL SO DON'T REMIND ME" is what I want to say, but what ends up happening is that I say "Oh, I guess" while they awkwardly laugh and I think about how much I don't want to go to school. Still, I have a bit left of summer which is nice so I'm going to hopefully be ready for the school year when it comes.
Peace & Blessings.

Some days it's useless to even try.


Fame is a fickle friend, Harry.
-Professor Gilderoy Lockhart
You know what else is a fickle friend? Weather. Yesterday, weather was nice and bright and beautiful. There were maybe two clouds in the sky, it wasn't too hot, and the sun was shining bright. That means that I could've gone outside, laid out, and attained a nice tan. Instead, i decided to stay inside and read because I was absolutely sure that tomorrow (today) would be the same weather. Today I wake up without looking out the window (as I always do.) I went downstairs and started to eat, then I read My Sister's Keeper while my mom, Nancy, struggled with the sprint store. Oh, she also watched HGTV (and still is) like she does every day and will until she's tired of it and ready to move on. Dad just came home and picked up Margaret's dog like a baby and is talking to us. Well, anyway, I was going to go swimming today but once we left the house we all realized that there is no sun in sight. There are dark, angry-looking clouds covering the sky which means two things. 1) I was very, very moronic yesterday when I thought that yesterday would be the same today. 2) The pool will be closed and I will not attain any tan today. So, I stayed inside and listened to mom argue with Sprint employees and I read my book. Eventually I got a text from my friend, Ryan, asking me to go over and spend some time with him.So I wait patiently until mom takes a short break from the phone and I try to put in a word. I ask, "mom, can I go over to Ryan's house for a bit?" and she replies with, "Oh, you're room isn't clean. You need to take care of that." So i spent some time getting out my anger and cleaning up my entire room. It took around two hours so I finally asked my mom a second time if I could go over. Her response was, "No, you can't go anywhere. Go get some groceries."Off I head to the grocery store to get ready for dinner. We'll be having some tacos, which I'm looking forward to. I've received numerous texts from a boy that I have been trying to ignore for a few days now, but he doesn't seem to get the point. That's very frustrating. Now I'm home from the grocery store, waiting patiently for dinner even though it's seven o'clock and my stomach is growling. I haven't showered in two or three days and I need to work out soon. Which I'm going to do. Basically, today is one of those days where getting out of bed really isn't doing you any good, because there's no point to your day. My plan for the night is to run on the elliptical, take a nice long shower, and then to eat dinner and relax in front of the TV under the blanket to enjoy a movie. My big problem though is that I ate most of my ice cream today and now the only ice cream left is the weird parts that I don't like to eat. HGTV is playing behind me and driving me basically insane, so hopefully the rest of my night will be a little calmer. Tomorrow should also be a good day because Julia and I are trying a detox diet that will flush out our systems so I'm pretty excited about that because my skin is falling apart. Anyway, have a good night.

A Sunday in the life of Jordan Jones

So this is my lover. Not because he has gorgeous abs or a smile that could make a grown man's heart hurt, but because he's a sassy individual with a wide range of talents. Today, I was awakened by my mother (who was waking Zach up for a shower) so I could get ready for church. I wasn't even taking a shower but I still had to get up at 7:30. I lazily got ready and went to church where I patiently (as patiently as I could be that is) waited for the two speakers to finish their talks concerning pioneers. In all honesty I wanted to die because they both had frowny faces and boring stories. After church I went home where I read some of my book, ate miniature tacos, and wrote my book. Yes, for all the thousands of people who read my blog in the future, I'm writing a book. A darn good one at that. It's all about my crazed family. So basically I have no friends, and that's tough, but I have fun. Today I went on a walk with the two dogs, dad, Julia, Margaret, John, and Zach. Now everyone is settling down as the time nears 9:00 (I won't be in bed soon though-- I'm a lurker of the night.) I enjoyed a delicious meal cooked my brother and I'm debating eating some ice cream because I already had two cupcakes, but life is hard and I should probably eat ice cream as often as possible. Anyway, time to write more of my book, I'll try to update everyone on my cool life tomorrow.
