Wee!
I got my new schedule for Term 3... This term is gunna kick ass... Well, except for Algebra 2 Honors...
1. Alg 2 H -- Ward
2. Band -- Souliere
3. English Bridge -- Noto
4. Study Hall -- Vicchio-Cabral
5. Lunch (Yay!)
6. PE In -- Moore (Recently changed to something else I cant remember)
Uh... Term 3 is going to be awesome... I have like two classes I have to work in... English Bridge is 1/2 of a class... And Alg 2 H is 1 and 1/2 of a class because of all the fucking work...
Track is getting pretty fun... I think I am going to have a pretty good time even if my legs go to hell and back... Twice... Head and Sprint coach Jilka is good and I can tell he is going to lead us to some powerful victorys the next couple of seasons... Although its gunna take effort from the team which only about 1/5 of the team puts into it... Back to being a good coach... I have 'coach' JP as well... And from all his prior experience and cooperations... And friendship too... He is gunna make the distance team a very powerful ones... At least the people that constantly show up and put in effort while at practice... Not mentioning any names though...
Finally, I am a sucker to little kids... I got home yesterday and was bringing the trash cans upw hen the little neighbor boy from across the streat comes over and starts throwing his tennis balls at a cardboard box laying up against one of the trashcans... I just ignored it and laughed... He started talking to me and then he ran to his backyard and came back out with a huge plastic rod that was broken at the top and starts stabbing the card board... Now I am just thinking, "Wtf is wrong with this kid..." but it was cool... After thats done he just walks into my garage and starts messing around with one of my really old squirtguns and hella liked it... I was bringing in the trashcan and he came out here and like said four times "I would really like to have a squirtgun like this..." and I felt so bad... "Cute" some may say... And I couldnt just be like "Screw you its mine..." so I said... "Do you really want it?..." and his eyes lighted up with joy and was like "YA!!!"... Quite humorous actually... His dad was out there and he was like "Dad I just got a new squirtgun!!" and his dad was like "He just said 'here ya go.'?" and I was like "Ya its ok... I never use it anyways"... So that kid starts messing around with it acting like he is playing guns... Nice to see him happy... I am such a sucker... Lmfao... What would you have done in my situation?

Incredible...
I am updating for two reasons... Uh... I been playing around with my background and all that and changing up my journal... What do you think?
Ya that was it... The second thing is I wanted to tell people how great this song is... One of my favorite of all time... I recomend anyone that has the chance to listen to it that they do so... One of the best songs ever from Dark Side Of The Moon album... Truly amazing...
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Digging around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to walk or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in a quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
And far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell

Let's see, Let's see...
Finals are over and I cant help being incredibly nervous over my biology grade... It was like at a 96% and then I had a frog final which I bombed horribly... And then on the final I think I did farely well but I dunno if I did good enough to keep my A in the class so thats something I will be dreading to figure out when I open up my report card... It was actually kinda funny because I was talking to the teacher towards the last five minutes of class and I was like offering her a bribe to ensure that I kept an A in the class but she just laughed at me... Knowing me... I probably would have paid her a little bit...
So after all the finals were over I went home and slept and then went back to school for track practice at 3:30... We went up to Laguna Park and did a whistle run... Well... We were surpose to but our coach, JP, couldnt blow the whistle so we didnt really know what to do so he was like running around telling us what to do... Then finally he figured out how to blow the whistle but it was even funnier because he had to like tilt his head up to do it... Most humerous... I wasnt really looking forward to track but now that I know my coach is going to be JP I think I am going to have a pretty good time...
So after track I went home and whatched a few minutes of TV and ate and then I went back to school AGAIN to play at the basketball game with the bad... It was fun but this one senior kept giving us crap that we werent in time... I thought we were but it kinda killed me mood... The Varsity team beat Elk Grove... Woot Woot!
After the game I had my mom bring me to the Urban Cafe where I met up with Chris, Kaitlyn, Dennis, Matt, Robert, Mohark... And I think that was it... Sorry if I left you out... Anyways so we were there whatching some local bands play and it was funny because the second band that came on was hecka stoned up on pot and their eyes were all bloodshot... But they had this bass player that was hella good and he like owned and had these riffs that just mesmorized everybody... I liked 'em so much that I bought one of their Demo CD's... The bands name was Natural Roots... I was outa there at 10:40 and asleep by 11:15... Long day...
Today was pretty boring... I got up... Tryed to do something on the internet and got bored... I went between TV and internet maybe 20 times... I went running and practiced trumpet... Talked on the phone and did my chores... I even got so bored that at one point I was like "Forget this I am sleeping..." which was pretty funny but my mom woke me up at 5 for dinner... And I had just eaten before I went to sleep so it was hard to put it down but I did... Now I am alone at home trying to come up with things to do and I figure I will get back in touch with guitar since I barely play anymore...
One more thing... I have been commenting on a lot of random people's journals latley and meeting some new people... Pretty cool... Hopefully they dont think I am a freaking moron but I wouldnt be too surprised if they did...
Two more things... A lot of people dont know how to leave a comment when they arent a member of woohu... All you do is check the anonymous box and put a -- and your name at the end... Thats it...
Uh... Term 3 is comin up... Should be fun... Only have like 2 classes to work in... This is my schedule I think...
1. Honors Algebra 2
2. Inter/Marching Band
3. English Bridge <-- This class is a waste of time... Especially with my teacher...
4. Study Hall or some math study hall (I dont know really)
5. Lunch
6. PE In
Its going to be a fun term 3!
[[EDIT]]
I took this little quiz thingy... It was pretty inaccurate I think but I will post it anyways...

I hate people...
First of all I am still incredibly pissed at many people...
Second I came up with a theory... Intelligence is obtained through perseverance of that cause in light of wanting something better...
These words mean so much when you think about them for intelligence is much more than just what we think it is… It includes understanding, common sense, and much more… And cant be obtained through a gift for it is obtained through wanting it more than others and trying harder to get to this… Sometimes the most intelligent people aren’t the people with a 5.0 GPA or grades in school, but sometimes of understanding people and helping them through their problems… Sometimes not understanding the meaning of life… But living their life the way we should live it… Its where common sense really meets us and brings about a factor of us and make us into the people we are… In all, intelligence isn’t obtained through a gift, but hard work because we want something better and we are willing to be better for it…
That makes since to me and is revolving around a lot of 'things' going on latley...

UGH!...
I am unbelievably sick of trying to help people out with their problems... All I do is offer them insight on what their problem is and what they should do about it because they cant make the choice... Or they arent willing to... I actually dont tell them to do something... I kinda show them why they should do a certain thing...
Anyways... Back to be being really pissed off... I try to help them and tell them that they are being ridiculous and that they are smarter and... Quite frankly... Better than this... And 95% of the time they are!... I will be givin some BS reason why they dont wanna do it and well... I tell them its BS... Then I will get reoccurances in the past and what happened and how they dont wanna be hurt anymore... Gimme a break... Its usually like "Oh, so your not willing to try and fix your problem because your scared of be hurt BUT you will just sit around and hurt inside until it eats you away to insanity..." and I am getting sick of this BS... Anyways... Then they will try and relate it to me and give me some crap like... Oh well your lucky and you dont have these problems... Ya I dont... You know why!?... I go out and fix my problems and dont dwell on them because I actually do have a F***IN shred of common sense... After that stage they will try giving me another excuse to try and say "Well it doesnt matter anyways because..." and this is gettin to me a lot now because now you are just treatin me like a frickin child... ALL I AM TRYING TO DO IS HELP!!... After this we go back to the first reason how they dont wanna be hurt again and then to the "I dont wanna hurt anymore" or "I dont wanna cry anymore" in which case I have to say "Oh but you rather not try and fix your life and just be unhappy... Yes brilliant!!"... Come on people... THEN!... A person will bitch at me and make some snide ass, bitchy comment like "Ya thanks Dr. Phil"... I dont know what to say to this but dont take your anger out on me... Instead... GO TRY AND FIX YOUR PROBLEM... Then finally they relate it to me having no problems and leave because they know I am right and they cant take that...
This was based on a convo earlier today but usually the convos follow that format... I would say "I am not going to help people anymore" but I know I cant do that so I dunno... Any suggestions?

I am moved
I got this from my friend Jessica's journal... It moved me so I thought I would post it and my thoughts on it...
Somewhere between the procrastination and the homework and the incessant forwards and the friendships and the calls to each other complaining about crushes. Somewhere between the phone calls to old friends and the "I miss you's", the "I love you's" and the "What are we doing tonight's? " And somewhere between all of the changing and growing.... somewhere between the classes and the skipping classes ...and the studying ...And the pretending to study for tests.. And the downright not studying for tests... I forgot --I forgot what school was all about.
Somewhere between all the appointments and starbucks coffees, and Diet Mountain Dew's... paying bills and then not paying bills...Making plans then breaking plans ..... Appearing, disappearing, then reappearing... I forgot--I forgot what it was like to cry. I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make you happy... And that pretending to be smart doesn't make you smart.. I forgot that you can't just forget the past in fear of the future... I forgot that you can't control falling in love.. And that you can't make yourself fall in love.
I learned that I can love... I learned that it's okay to mess up.... And it's okay to ask for help!... And it's okay to feel like crap... I learned it's okay to complain and whine to all your friends for a whole day........ I learned that sometimes the things you want most you just can't have. I learned that the greatest thing about high school isn't the parties or the drinking or the hookups... It's the friendships, which means taking chances. I learned that sometimes the things we want to forget are the things which we most need to talk about... I learned that time can heal all things... I learned that just when you think it can't get worse- it does... but with the love and support of friends-you survive... I've learned that when you start feeling bad about losing touch - those that you've lost touch with are feeling the same way... I learned that letters from friends are the most important things.And that sending cards to your friends makes you feel better. But, basically, I just learned that my friends........ Both old and new..... Are the most important people to me in the world. And.......without them, I wouldn't be who I am today...
I have read through this a few times now and I am really moved by this... I guess this is a good time to point out that myself regret absolutley nothing in my entire life... I mean... If something didnt happen earlier in my life... I wouldnt have turned out to be the person I am today and be as happy as I am and even though I have been through some rough times and had some troubles I am not going to regret any tiny bit of it because in the end everything turned out ok... Without you, friends, exs, parents, teachers, influences, enemys... Whatever it doesnt matter... Everything has made me into the thing I am today and I know most people are going to always regret some things because its only human to look on the bad side of things but I wanna tell them to start looking on the positive and realizing what their life has turned them into... If your just going to rant on about having a bad life be my guest but deep down I think you will see my point...

Wow...
This song is truly amazing... My dad and I are just sitting here listening to this song... Truly amazing song from the album Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd...
Remember when you were young?
You shone like the sun.
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Now there's a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
Shine on, you crazy diamond
You were caught in the crossfire
Of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze
Come on you target
for faraway laughter;
Come on you stranger, you legend,
You martyr, and shine
You reached for the secret
too soon
You cried for the moon
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night
And exposed in the light
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Well, you wore out your welcome
With random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions;
Come on you painter, you piper,
You prisoner, and shine
Nobody knows where you are,
How near or how far
Shine on, you crazy diamond
Pile on many
more layers
And I'll be joining you there
Shine on, you crazy diamond
And we'll bask in the shadow
Of yesterday's triumph
And sail on the steel breeze
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on you miner for truth and delusion,
And shine.
This song was really making me think... About a few people inparticualrly... I'll leave their names anonymous because if they are important enough for me to think about them at a time like this then they will prbably know that I am thinking of them... By the way... Its a few people so I am thinking about more than one person... Feel free to IM me and ask me if I was thinking about you =]
I checked out the UC Berkeley Campus today and it made me even more crazy to go there... If that is humanley possible XD... Anyways... I checked out the music building... Although I got inside, I couldnt really go anywhere...
There was this really funny thing that happened too... There was the music library across from the building where the band supposedly is and we wanted to go in there and we couldnt get it because it was closed and the doors were locked... But then... My dad wanted to go in and check it out so he was like "Well... Lets just see if I push the handicap button if it will open..." and it did!... OMG it was so freaking hilarious... So we went in there and this lady came out from behind the desk and she was like "How did you get in here!?!" and my dad was like... "I just pushed the button..."... Anways... She kicked us out and got all freaked out and went and told someone the doors were opening even though the library was closed... She was also talking to us as we were leaving and she called me handsome O.o
I have also been noticing that people dont realize how hard I am trying to get into this dream school of mine... I was telling a CERTAIN someone before I left how determined I was to get into this school and then that PERSON was like... "Well you gotta take all these classes by your junior year and blah blah blah blah"... Then I told her... I am taking most of those classes next year... I think she felt bad... But thats not the point... Maybe I am just being an asshole XD
I just really wanna get into this school... The one fear I have basically is getting my application there rejected...
I am really glad for the couples on campus that are my friends because they all seem like they are really working and really happy so a shoutout to all of them and well done for finding someone... I have as well o.-
Although Jessica I can just laugh at and she knows why XD
I hope everyone is having a good three day weekend and is getting ready for finals... It is going to be a freaking bitch!

WEE!
Well I am just wating for my dad to come so I'd figure I'd update...
Well next week is finals week and I am very unprepared... I hope I can pull it off... The main class I am worried about is biology because my teacher said the final was really hard so someone remind me to study for that... In English I should be OK as long as I study... French I will have to study for because we covered a lot of material... But I can't worry too much because I have a 98.8 in that class... Finally I gotta prepare for Health because along with the final I have an exam so someone remind me to study for that as well... How'd everyone else doing upcoming on finals week?...
I am in an extremful cheerful mood becasue its a three day weekend... But thats not the main reason... And only a few people know the real reason why I am extremely happy *smirks*
Muah... It was a good day even though I had two tests... I can honestly say I am closer with a lot of my friends than I have ever been... Well for a few at least... Others I needa come together with again... If your one of those people I have forgotten then just tell me... I will do my best to fix it all...
By the way... The Xanga and My Space thing is really getting annoying... I would expect less people to be doing it on account of all the people acting like they dont wanna be a part of the crowd...
I am still sick... I can not wait for this SH*T to go away...
