"If you live to be one hundred, I want to live to be one hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you" ~Winnie The Pooh "Life isn't fair. It's just fairer then death. That's all." ~William Goldman Always look on the bright side of death! Just before you draw your terminal breath Life's a piece of shit, When you look at it. Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true, You'll see it's all a show, Keep 'em laughing as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you! -Spamalot

Summer Books
So you know how there are books called American Classics, and we dont cover a lot of them in school right, so i thought i should make a reading list and so i went online and researched and did all that fun stuff, i mean it took me a couple of days to make a list of 15 books to read over the sum.....HAHAHA, you guys actually believed that, come on its me YASAMIN so i went to barnes and bought death of a salesman, so i was looking at the bag and i was like wow, i read one..two..three of those books, i was amazed. So i decided to make a list of all the books on that bag adn read them by the end of the summer.

And the list is (some have authors and some dont):

-Invisible Man by Ellison
-The Maltese Falcon by Dashell Hammett
-This side of Paradise by Fitzgerald

-The Sound fo the Fury by Faulkner
-A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

yup yup
yay i'm back!.........so i haven't updated in like forever and half. um...so let's see...what's new in the world of sandy kim? a couple things. yay finally some excitement right? i don't know if it's all that exciting...you be the judge.

so i'm next year's vice president. woopee! see i didn't think i would get it cuz yeah....melissa's popular and i'm not. and i know there's a lot of people in this school who aren't too fond of me. so i kinda had the mindset where i thought i wouldn't get. a little pessimisstic but figured it's better than being extremely disappointed. so i'm happy about that.

so no summer school for me. but i should find a job. one to keep myself occupied and two to pay off for this summer thing i'm going to for two weeks. it's like singing boot camp minus the boot camp part. well...it is alot of singing. it's like from 9 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon but totally worht it. one my singing should improve a whole hell of a lot, two my confidence level should be improve as well regarding singing in public, and three it should prepare a whole hell of a lot for next year's musical which i'm hoping to make and actually get a decent part since that's the only thing i'm auditioning for and i actually have a chance in making since we all know how much i suck at acting....but i still try so you gotta me props for that! just for auditioning i ugess....i don't know....moving on.

um...for those of you saw me on monday during school in tears or in near tears, here's an explanation: sunday night...well i guess monday morning....take two. monday morning at 3 in morning i got a phone call from my aunt who called to inform us that my grandma had passed away. yeah. that's why i was kinda glum all day on monday. like end of 1st period and beginning of 2nd period was when it finally hit me that she died. i walked into theatre class 2nd period and i started crying. good thing it was freichels because i asked to go to the bathroom and she let me. um..i spent the first like 7 minutes of class in the bathroom crying. yeah. so i went to the funeral today. i don't really wanna go into it right now...cuz i wanna get off the computer....maybe i'll post more tomorrow.

goodnight.
Always, Sandy

pARENTS
so yea my dad took away my car, and im really pissed off. I really do hate my dad, im not kidding, hes such a jackass. Two weeks ago he left the house, hed come home eat and then leave, i like for 3 out of 7 days i didnt see him at all. Then he decides to come back, ok whatever, but when he comes back he doesnt have the fucking right to just spend it yelling at us and making us clean the house. And then the next week he takes away my car. Thanks dad. When my dad left i guess i was the one everything went to in a way. My mom would talk to my grandma (my mom and dad got in a fight and he left the house) and then my grandma woudl talk to me. My brothers didnt talk about it, i think Taha and Yasser said soemthing to me about it ONCE and that was all. i really do hate my dad, hes such a jackass, id hate to have to marry a guy like that, i would just explode. Hes so fucking sexist, im not kidding. The world has to fucking revolve aroudn him too, hes gonna take some test to be an official pharmacist (one test) and he complains about it and my grandma has this theory that hes extremely bitchy because of that well no. Are you kidding me? i took the ACT (that test determines ur fucking future) PSAE, had an AP test, and tests in school to keep my grades up, omg. Ok thats all i have to say about my dad.

So i noticed something while i was eating my toast today right after school.

1> the bread never has two bubbles exactly the same size, sort of like we dont have the same fingerprints, eye patterns, or voice waves.




2> if you cut the bread, splitting one bubble perfectly in half, the rest of the bubbles will never line up evenly, not to mention the fact that the bubble are not circles anyway.




3> every bubble has its own expansion, some moving into other bubbles, making one, others idling singley, but happily.



so what does this mean?



attempt to figure it out before scrolling down.






1> we can't expect to achieve the same things, no matter how hard we try. one person may be good at sports (perfect split) but suck at soemthing else (not so perfect). but there are different degrees of splits...




2> sort of the same, but one piece of bread will have more talent than the other side. sometimes, there isnt even a tad included in the other side that is in the one.






3> we all have our comfort zones, and its not just a space issue. its more of how we mingle, including how often we mingle...





yes...that is it.




mmm...peanut butter...mmm...cinnamon!

so im going to write three entries, because i really have a lot to say, one of which will be private because, yes i dont want you to read.

yes

~*~YOU~*~


YOU, who complains that you're lonely, then whine about your friends. YOU who want love, but mope so no one can talk to you. YOU want success, but you spend more time crying than trying to achieve the goal. YOU, wanting attention, but shying from it when it is offered to you. So what do YOU want? I'm getting so incredibly frustrated, listening to you whine about what you dont have, and what you wish you had. Live your damn life because it's all thats real. if you continue, you'll be ninety and whining about how you missed out because you spent your life complaining.

KING OF FRANCE
We'll give them present audience. Go, and bring them.

Exeunt Messenger and certain Lords

You see this chase is hotly follow'd, friends.

DAUPHIN
Turn head, and stop pursuit; for coward dogs
Most spend their mouths when what they seem to threaten
Runs far before them. Good my sovereign,
Take up the English short, and let them know
Of what a monarchy you are the head:
Self-love, my liege, is not so vile a sin
As self-neglecting.


~William Shakespeare
~King Henry V, Act 2. Scene IV

Hi i havent wrote in here in such a long time. Im supposed to be writing an essay fro mertz but im not, i know im a failure. here is a story but not really, i dunno.

People tend to assume things about others without really listening to the person. As a listner i observe and notice things. I try mybest to see peoples depth, but by trying this i miss the outer image of the person, that image tends to always be false. The person that pretends to be deep isnt, their depth is on the outside, but those who try to make thier lives simple are deep. People who judge, and refuse to forgive adn forget, those people have depth. Im not saying that juding others is acceptable, im saying that people who judge see things clearly. They are able to distinguish between the people they want as afriends, adn the ones they need. They can see who can be trusted and who cant.

Ok nevermind, i wanted to go in a completely different direction and then i wrote this. Stupid yasamin. Aight im going wish me luck at six flags, i hope i dont get on a rollercoaster.

Mad props
Melissa Alderton collects junk like nobody’s business

By Amy Jarvis


Photo By Donna M. Andrick

Propabilities is like a huge flea market where everything is for rent. There is an Austin Powers-style purple circular couch, gilded crosses, antique cash registers, sheriffs’ badges, books, safes, dishes, games, toys, bathtubs, paintings, picnic baskets, CDs, dolls, guns, clothes and rotary phones. There are even wedding dresses hanging from the rafters.

This is what’s known in the theater and film industries as a prop house. The owner, Melissa Alderton, 50, has been in business for 17 years, but clearly was collecting, hoarding, saving and stashing things for decades.

“I had a lot of stuff in the family,“ she says. “And when Field’s had their sales, well, I love to go shopping!“

The inspiration for Propabilities came when Alderton was working on a photo shoot for Marshall Field’s. “I was doing sets and needed stuff and there just wasn’t anyone doing this,“ she says.

So she filled that void. Since then, she has rented props to Michael Jordan, Oprah Winfrey and Joan Cusak. Her props have appeared on Chicago Hope, ER and Starting Over, as well as in Sleepless in Seattle, High Fidelity, The Babe, The Fugitive, Ali, Barbershop and Barbershop II.

But she’s always pleased to get them back. “I’m always happy to come to work,” she says. “I like being with my props.“

Propabilities is located at 1517 N. Elston Ave., just off the corner of North and Ashland Avenues.
