So, I'm only allowed online to check my email, and check my homework/do any online stuff for homework. >:( So far, I'm only grounded for a week, but who knows? Lately, my 'life' has just been getting worse and worse. No facebook, no twitter, no iTunes (except just to listen to music... GRR i can't get new music). But i can email, so email me if you wanna talk!!!!!!!!!! And sorry if it takes me a while to get back to ya!!! Wish me luck with the mother.

~a grounded Lily.

Status Reports :) and more....

First of all I must say... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

Sorry I haven't posted much about my friends and every thing happening around here. Well, I told you about Anney... and she's super awesome! She wanted to write a little something. She, and a few other people, might be writing some on my blog. As long as the want to. Here's what Anney said:

Hi everyone! I'm so glad to be a part of Lily's, Chloe's, and all our friends worlds. They are being so helpful, and I just wanted to say hi! I love meeting to people, so if there's anything anyone wants to say to me, go ahead! I love to talk to people! :-)

Viva la Vida ;-)

-=-Anney-=-

She's so great! My little sister Bella thinks so too. And so does Ethan... ooh la laa! Anyways, everyone really likes hangin' out at the Graveyard. Thats where we spend most of our time when we're not at school. And since its summer, we are practically always there, 'cause its so fun!

Random, but I must tell you: There's this guy at my school, Kat's boyfriend, Dean. He's a Popular as well. Kat's hate of db' + Dean's hate of them = MASSIVE LOATHING! He, well, lets just say he took matters into his own hands. No one at school has ever hurt, or even threatened the undead before. Boy did he. He hasn't hurt anyone.... yet. But Troy and Matthew were talking and he told them that he will 'not give up until all of the zombies are dead, forever!' Great. So here I will let you know how each of us are doing and a little about them.

Anney- living at the U.C. Doing great! She is almost as functional as Chloe and I, and she's making a lot of friends! (well only a few trads, but still some... mostly us dbs.) One of my closest friends, along with Chloe and Madison! She hasn't been ready to tell us how she died (which I totally understand) but she said that when she does want to she will post a little here. She had dirty blonde hair, and its kind of wavy. She usually wears it in braided-pigtails. She has brown-black eyes, very dark and very big and very pretty.

Chloe- My best friend, and like I said, with Anney and Madison. She is a lot like Karen DeSonne, she is hot according to Josh (he said that the first time he met her.), and some people wouldn't know she was a zombie if we didn't tell them. She has curly brown hair, that is almost as vibrant and shiny as ever. Fair skin, but she had that when she was alive. She's very... lively. ;-)

Ethan- he's doing a lot better. He walks quite slow and talks slowly, but he can walk and talk none-the-less! He has a surfer dude style. Blondish hair that flips (you know what I mean :) with hazel eyes and tan skin. Like I said, surfer. I hope he starts to function more so he can surf again! Oh and I think he really likes Anney! Awww! ;-)

Josh- gone.

Troy- As functional as Ethan. He has black hair that is a little wavy and is as rebellious as Madison. He always hangs with her and might like her!

Madison- She can't function as well as Anney yet, but we can tell she's moving quickly (not as in walks fast but as in will most likely recover soon). She's really funny and very rebellious. Anney, Madison, Chloe, and I are really close. She has straight, jet black hair to her shoulders; very edgy and fits her well.

Matthew- The most functional guy. He is funny and caring. He has pale skin, has short dark hair with bangs that go over his face and light brown eyes. He is my best guy friend. He told me his story, but he asked me not to tell anyone what it was just yet, because none of our friends know yet either. Sorry, it'll have to be another time.

And for me, I didn't want to write more about myself so I got Chloe, Anney and Madison (mostly madison) to do it. They are sleeping over.

Lily- Her hair is long, strawberry blonde, and naturally straight. But it will curl, braid, or do anything, while some people's straight hair won't curl or change. She has bright blue eyes, and she is really funny. She always knows how to lighten the mood. She is very athletic and loves purple. She is functional and could probably pass for a living person if it wasn't for the scars on her arm from the wreck. While Chloe is "hot like the sun" (Josh said that before he was re-terminated), Anney heard Matthew telling Troy that "Lily is beautiful and vibrant like the moon" So sweet! This is Chloe now and I guess I'm the sun and Lily is the moon?

OMG! Why didn't they tell me that he said that!? And if the take out what I highlighted in pink then it may work, but... ?

Anyways...

Troy likes Madison (we think)

Ethan likes Anney (we think)

Matthew likes me... maybe.

We need to find someone for Chloe!!! ;-)

So much love in the air... *sigh, giggle*

But, there isn't really much else. My mom wants to bake a pie for father's day, so rock on!

Peace Out,

Ily,

My Story

Well, I've finally decided to post how I became a zombie. After I read madiSON's story, I decided, I might as well post mine. In this post, I am only writing to the feelings of waking up and that stuff. Pretty much just to arriving home from the hospital. Another day, I will write more details on what happened after I... undied, as well as my brother's re-termination. Sorry it took me soooo long to post, I've been busy, and haven't had much time to write it down. Here goes.

My dad was out of town, and my mom wanted some peace and quiet, so, my brother Lucas, who was 18 at the time, as he would of been forever, was taking me to the book store; we both were major readers. It had only been about 3 months since teenagers started rising from the dead. We had heard of the white van clan, but we always thought they were just a group of rebels; we had never known any zombies. We didn't have a problem with the undead, but, we didn't quite think of them as normal, or as normal as us. Anyway, we were on our way home from the book store, and Lucas was looking at his new book. I was looking at mine, Generation Dead. It was all about people who were living in a world like ours, zombies and humans, and the hate between many of them. (Little did I know then that the main character, Tommy Williams, would be coming to my home town... because I asked him to!) When he looked up from his book, we both just saw a flash of white in front of us, and we crashed. The van had tried to swerve away, but instead, just crashed right into our car, the driver's side. Lucas's side.

* * *

I woke up a few hours later in a beige room, a hospital room. I was light-headed, and felt as if I might die. Well, I was in so much pain that I thought, 'I'd rather die then feel like this.' (be careful what you wish for). The doctor came in, and he told me that I was going to make it. I would of asked when the pain would go away, but I couldn't speak. I was way out of it. So instead, I made a small grunting noise to show I understood.

"Your brother, though, was not quite so lucky. He heart is still going, but I'm afraid he won't last much longer. He had an awful concussion and I'm sorry to say there isn't much we can do to help him," he said.

Until then, I'd been fighting the pain, trying my best to stay alive. But when I heard that I was going to have to live without Lucas, I gave up. He was my brother, my 'accomplice in crime', and my best friend. Life without him would be miserable. So I stopped trying, I sort of, gave into the pain.

I heard the doctor's faraway voice yelling, "No, Lily! Don't give up now! Try! Fight the pain! Fight to stay alive!" My mother ran in as well.

"Dr. Temple, what's happening!? Save her! Lily, try!" But I couldn't. I didn't. I heard my monitor quit beating, my heart stopping. The highlights of my life began to flash in front of me.

Age 4- Bringing my first puppy, Max, home from rescue center. He licked Lucas's face, I giggled.

Age 6- My birthday party at the water park. I fell off the slide and hit my head. Lucas came to help me.

Age 8- Performing last at a piano concert, perfectly playing Fur Elise. A standing ovation.

Age 9- Breaking my leg, I tripped when I was walking into my math class. I also fell, hard walking down the stairs in my house; I wasn't coordinated on crutches. Lucas taught me how to use them.

Age 10- Moving to a new town, a new school, new friends.

Age 12- My best friend Chloe (who was the first friend I made when I moved), Lucas, and I flew to Disney World for a week! We rode every roller coaster again and again.

And now this. As I saw what I great life I had, I briefly considered fighting, willing my body to stay alive. Then I remembered that Lucas is one of the things that had made my life so great. The last thing I thought, 'I love you Lucas, I'll miss you'.

After that, everything went black. And I don't remember anything from then until what I later found out was the next day.

* * *

My eyes slowly fluttered open, revealing the same beige room I had been in when I died. And then I realized, I died. I shouldn't be seeing this. Is it a memory? A hope? An illusion? Dr. Temple walked in, expecting to see a dead girl sitting on the room, and he gasped.

"T-t-t-am-m-mie," he said, using my mother's name, "I think Lil-l-ly is-s, ummm, uh, she'ssss um."

Mom was frustrated and upset, as would be any mother's who daughter had just died.

"I know," she sniffed, "she's dead." Dr. Temple was still speechless and shocked, but he managed to muster up the words, "Not anymore."

Just two words, how can they have such an effect on someone? They can make you cry, laugh, they can make you love, make you regret, and they can ever restore hope in someone. Thats what they must of done to my mother, because for a split second, she must of thought I was really alive, and that it must of been just a terrible nightmare. Then, the truth dawned on her. I wasn't dead, but she knew I wasn't completely alive. But that was okay with her, she saw me looking at her and she yelled with joy, "Lily! How are you feeling? Oh, Lily!"

I knew what it said, but my body wasn't responding, I couldn't speak.

"Honey! Honey, talk to me! Lily, please!" I felt her despair, a hard blow in the chest. I wanted to respond, wanted to tell that I was okay, but I couldn't. I told my mouth to say something, but it wouldn't. I couldn't control my body. I remember thinking, 'Talk. Say. Mom. Move mouth. Try. Focus. Mom. Love mom. For, her. Try'

I heard the doctor say, "My, I've only read about differently biotic, I've never been in close contact with one." He spoke of me as if I was some alien! "Its normal that they don't talk at first. From what I've read it seems like it takes a while for them to adjust. She'll be having a lot of trouble," Dr. Temple said.

"How long will it be before she can..." she paused. Looking for the right word, "function again?"

"It varies, anywhere from a week to never. She might be a lucky one."

Yeh. Real lucky. I hated that doctor from the minute I undied. 'Stu, pid, doc, tor.' were my exact thoughts. They kept me in a hospital for about a week, to see if I could start to function. They made me stay in that bed! How was I supposed to try when I'm trapped in a hospital bed!? Once again, stupid doctor.

* * *

After the pointless week at the hospital, with Dr. Retard my mom drove me home. As I said, my dad was out of town on a business trip, and he came home immediately. He was shocked to see my usual lively self, now an immobile D.B. Oh and my sister, Bella.... another story or another post.

From that point, good things happened, as well as some bad ones, but you'll get those details later, in another post.

P.S. If you haven't already figured it out, I love irony.
