I just can't think of anything to write....
I'm on chapter 5 of Aunt Julia and liking Amanda's idea more and more. Sparknotes.. my old friend..

Hmm.. there was another battle of the page we can get in the football program.

Umm.. working on cleaning up my stuff and preparing for the trip.

My computer is creating lots of problems. GRRRARGH!

With love..

I've spent a majority of the day cleaning my room. It's a bit of a disappointment, because usually when I clean my room I find about 40 bucks, and so far I've only found 3. Hmm...oh well. I also re-discovered posters (they weren't lost or anything, just put out of mind) that I have to hang. I need to figure out a way to get wrinkles/folds out of posters, but I think I may just hang them and flatten them as best I can against the wall, and hope that they unwrinkle themselves. I'm also disappointed that I didn't find more stuff to sell, because Sarah is having a garage sale tomorrow, and she told me I could have a little table of my own stuff to sell, which would be nice...if I had some. Mostly what I have been doing is going through papers and filling up my little filing thingy. I tried to buy another filing thingy, so that I could have more room to file, but I don't think they exist anymore. That's ok, I got all that I needed filed from the past 2 years. When will gets back into the country I will make him clean out one of the filing cabinets he's usurped in the garage and I'll put stuff from sophomore year and things I dont need from last year in there.

Gosh, this is an incredibly boring post.

Me and amanda are currently having an exuberant (parentheticals to amanda and her ceaseless vocabulary) conversation about animal crossing, my favorite video game. We're negotiating the trade of a mammoth head for her sister.
Amanda: that's an interesting oocq (that's out of context quote for all of you non-cool people)
Amanda: Amanda: she can't find the mammoth head
Indeed...yes, summer has gotten this boring. Not that I am complaining. I am enjoying nothingness to its fullest extent. I am finally catching up on my stories. Just kidding. The closest I get to a soap opera is 7th Heaven, which I must admit, I now watch 2-3 times a day. OHOH! I almost forgot! 3 days and counting until I Love the 90's!!! YAY!! I have been waiting for I Love the 90's since I first watched I Love the 70's! This is so exciting. So next week, I will have no life from the hours 9-11. That's it. I am watching every minute of I Love the 90's because....because I love the 90's. C'mon...you know nothing beats beanie babies and pogs and salute your shorts and boy bands and koosh balls and pokemon and skip it and pro wrestling at its prime and crazy leftover 80's stuff. Ahh.. the 90's are great. Ok, enough about the 90's.

Yeah, my life is pretty boring, as you can tell by 2 posts ago. Although I'm beginning to think that all of your lives are that boring, because you didn't respond with heaps of comments for what I should be doing. I think sunday I'm going to the dog park. That's always nice. It's enjoyable and free. You can't beat that with a stick. Other than that, I guess I'll just continue shopping at random stores and watching tons of TV and waiting to go to Pittsburgh. Actually, I'm lying. I will spend a majority of next week doing CAS hours at the humane society. I figure if I go 5 days next week, I'll be close to the 50 hours that I wanted to get done this summer. Actually, I wanted to get 100 done this summer, but we all know I only ever do half of what I say I'm going to do. Unless it's summer assignments from school. In that case, I just don't do them. Those two books and the college journal are sitting on my VCR staring at me, but they know they will not be opened until my layover in atlanta on sunday. That's right, I said it. And ToK is last on my priority list. Mostly because all those books are a lot of fluff anyway. Crazy Metamorphosis. Although, I did hear through the grape vine that that was Shakespeare's favorite book. It's probably inaccurate information, but don't tell me that until after I read it, because right now, I have no other motivation to do so.

So that's about it...this is an incredibly long and boring entry, but it beats cleaning more. Think about my options here people. And maybe I wouldnt have to write so much BS if you would COMMENT! *Pokes* So there. Ha, I love how I can turn the blame around onto anyone. I know, I know. It's a gift. ^.^

Alright, it's later..
So yeah...I havent actually updated in a while. I've been a bit busy. I finished my EE since I last updated, as both of you who read this already know, and I think it's pretty good. Granted, I should change a few things before handing it in to Youngman, but for a working draft, I'm fairly proud of my work. And that's saying something, because I usually have a pretty low opinion of my writing. I gave it to a few of my IB graduate (*cough*) friends, who also said it was acceptable, so I'm fairly optimistic that I'll atleast do better than Will did. o.~ Hehe, I think I'm the only one that gets that. But that's ok. I also called and got my AP scores...because I'm a nerd. I did worse on history than I thought I did, but what else is new. Everything else was about what I expected, but shy of what I hoped for. I got a 3 in history. Shows what a "good teacher" Hall is. I got a 4 on world history, and I thought I knew less of that. Thanks, Mr. Ierace. I got a 3 in chem too, which I was slightly happy about. It's not the greatest score in the world, but I passed. And I got a 4 in english, which is pretty good. I thought I might have had a shot at a 5, because I thought my essays were pretty damn good, but I am by no means complaining about a 4. So there it sits. An entire year summed up in 3 numbers. Kind of depressing really.

Umm...that's about all that's been going on. I leave for Pittsburgh the 18th, and my parents strategically booked a cruise today for the 17th, so I have to spend that night at the Sheppards, as they have so graciously offered to take me to the airport in the morning. Here's one interesting tidbit: All 4 of us are going to be on vacation at the same time, in 3 different places. As I am the last to leave, and the last on the list of important people, I get screwed in terms of luggage. My dad expects me to pack 11 days worth of clothes into one of those little suitcases from those sets of luggage, and refuses to buy me a 50 friggin dollar suitcase from walmart. I am starting to get pissed off at the amount of things I have to pay for. I can't get a job, because my parents haven't put any money aside for my college, so I have to work my ass off all the time for damn IB so I can get scholarships, but they don't pay for anything for me. My mom said today that they pay for lots of things for me, and I asked her to name a few. That list was short. I'm sick of having to be financially independent, but unable to find a means by which to support such finances. What the hell do they expect me to do? I'm broke all the time, because it costs as much to get places now as it does when you get there, what with $2.00+ gas prices. The only time I get out anymore is to run errands. I find myself making up errands for me to run just so I can get out of the house. There is nothing to do that doesnt cost an ungodly amount of money. Pisses me off. I need a job.

Grrr...now I'm in a bad mood. Shows how good of a release this journal is. I was just frustrated before I wrote this, and now I'm frustrated and pissed off. What else is new. I'm going to stop now before I invent a new unpleasant mood.

Never look back.

Alright, I am about at my wits end. I have no idea what to do. Literally. I'm trying to figure out stuff to do that is fun, but not so damn expensive. Lion country safari is 18 bucks per person, butterfly world is 17, and miami seaquarium is 25. I am totally out of ideas for what to do. I have been shopping at like every single store in the city. I need something to do that I can afford. Well, I can afford all those things, I'm just not willing to pay for them. I mean, seriously, there has got to be something better to do than sit around all day. I have a car, I have no curfew, and I'm not doing shit. Someone come up with something to do (that is not the beach or shopping) that is fun, but is lighter on the wallet. Honestly...there has got to be something.

I'll do an actual post later.

Can I really expect comments? No, I guess not, since I don't really write anything.

You put us to shame Amanda :P

The last two nights.. I'm so happy... I finally remember dreaming. I haven't felt I've been dreaming in so long.. but I remember now! I can even kinda remember some clips of my dream last night!

Not much else has been going on...
We're cleaning and preparing for the trip.. We leave the 15th for two weeks.

I finished the Metamorphosis book. Now I need to finish Aunt Julia.. or work on the college journal.. something else before I go.

Hmm.. I can't think of anything else to write.. *sigh*

With love..
