Ending pollution is the only solution.

So. I want friends. It's crazily annoying here. I need to make friends with brand-stinking-new people in the same old town. I kinda have my eye on a couple of people at holmes to be friends with, and I'm only vaugely succeeding. I can talk to them, but I want to build it to have someone to hang out with, but that's hard when you don't have a car (the car situtation as has gotten crazy times more complicated, but it may get a lot simpler sometime). I can't just be like "Yeah, let's go eat there, I'm game!" when I'm waiting on a ride from my dad. Also, work limits me a little bit, but it's also stopping me from completely wasting away in front of the television with nothing to do, and it gives me interaction with people.

On the other hand, I'm way better at talking to people. If I hadn't worked at Sal & Mookies, I wouldn't even have almost friends. Of course, who knows if I would have failed Gov't, and gone to Holmes, but that's w/e.

People tend to ask me why not Hinds. If I'm gunna stay at home anyway, Holmes is closer, and I would know more people at Hinds. Although this seems to be what I want, those people aren't nessesarily my friends. Some people at Hinds live-on campus might be, but not so much the commuter campus. Here the only people from Murrah in my classes graduated a couple of years ago. All the just graduates in one of my classes went to MRA apparently (makes sense as I am in ridgeland.) There are some cool people though. Rebecca Disharoon is someone I've seen that I wouldn't actually mind being friends with. Also, just sitting down next to me at a computer is Christina (it's hard to remember her name for some reason, and it's not just me), who goes to Holmes, and works at Sal & Mookie's. At first I didn't know if I would like her, being so peppy and sparkley-eyed as she is, but she's awesome. Once when she wasn't as happy I was totally pissed at the person who made her so. Can't just steal someones awesome happiness like that, it's just not cool. She's a candidate for friend.

I should stop writing and get to work. Even though it's 9:02 and I have till 12:15 when my next class starts. Le sigh. It's what I get for bumming rides off of other people. On the other hand, I like spending my nights doing whatever and then doing my homework in the mornings, even so that I come early when I don't have to. Just not this early.

Oh, and my awesome speech teacher, who is definately the coolest, funniest, and best of all my teachers, makes writing a speech seem much easier than expected. Really quite awesome, though I'm sure it will dribble out of my shaking mouth, I'll be semi-prepared and not over-worked for it.

I want a new iPod nano, and i really shouldn't. Having a lot of money you're not saving up for anything in particular is sometimes a bad thing. (also, there's the iPod touch, either way, I would do a lot of frikken thinking before either.)

and I need a new phone, but I don't consider the iPhone. Just a weirdie I guess. Srsly thou, AT&T totally gave up all new phones for the past year to get the iPhone. Frikken annoying, when I looked for a new phone a year ago, decided I didn't want any of them, looked now, and it's the exact same selection plus the iPhone. Lame. (I do like that the iPhone is totally taking us into 'the future' though, cus people who wouldn't buy such a phone do, and it's like star trek style with a touch screen and no real buttons)

Post talk like a pirate day, number 19

So, today was my birthday, the 19th of my life so far.

I can say it was better than expected, for I was expecting nothing. I was expecting my least favorite classes in school (algebra and spanish) and then work, with no presents. Yesterday though, feeling a bit sick I was, and I convinced my mom to let me stay home today. It would have been harder, but my dad is out of town, and since she has to give me rides, it was a bit more convenient for her as well.

So, sleeping late, I was first woken up by Meghan who sang 'happy birthday' to me over the phone. One of the best wake up calls ever. I did however go back to sleep after, so it seems kinda like a dream. Jonny texted a happy birthday message also, so before I was even up I had multiple greetings of the day. Turns out I had major sleep to catch up on, so I slept nicely. Got up and furiously did spanish homework online since it was due at 11pm, and I would be at work then. Got to work where Joe found out it was my birthday and offered me a free pizza. He was appalled I hadn't asked the day off, but I had forgotten, and then figured that work was better than me sitting home alone "celebrating." Worked with a new girl, Camille, who I really like a lot. She left a bit early so I closed half-way by myself, but it was fine. Getting home I was greeted by cards from my parents and grandparents, an icecream cake, a bag of kit kats, a bag of little tokens, and my mom told me my real present is that she is getting a ring fixed of hers (the stone is a little wobbly) so that she can give it to me (it being my great grandmother's and she gave it to my mom at 16, and told my mom to pass it on). It's actually really pretty, and I like it a lot. So, I liked my birthday.

Now to eat my birthday cake which is melting in front of me.

Hasta luego.

EDIT: this is one of the funniest things i've ever seen. http://winterson.com/2005/06/episode-iii-backstroke-of-west.html

Alive

Okay, so I'm alive and shiz, but whatever. School- Holmes, stupid people, I stand out as smart, it's super weird, blah blah blah. Mainly I'm on here to post that I went to www.careercruising.com and using the username- nycareers and the password- landmark, I was given these careers

1.	Special Effects Technician
2.	Taxidermist
3.	Industrial Designer
4.	Costume Designer
5.	Plumber
6.	Set Designer
7.	Makeup Artist
8.	Cabinetmaker
9.	Sign Maker
10.	Office Machine Repairer
11.	Animator
12.	Model Maker

You usually post the first 10, but I liked Model Maker as my last one way better than Office Machine Repairer. I really like that Set Designer and stuff like that is in there. It only asked my 39 general questions, but it seems to come up with great answers, and I like that. ... my dad worked for a plumber as a kid. I hear he stank quite a bit when he came home. Taxidermy is weird. Don't think I could do it. I just really like this list. Everyone should do this.

Michael is asleep on my couch. MSA really drains him. It's crazy really. I'm a bit tired myself though, I should probably get him to go home.

See ya, wouldn't want to be ya! (btw, totally not true, my life is suckage at the moment)
