Potential.
I MAY end up with a D in Math. If I don’t turn in the English assignment from a few days ago when I was sleeping during Mr. Thomas’ entire lecture, then my grade in English MAY drop. Serra’s terrible soccer field MAY result in our narrow win. I MAY just enjoy life more without a cell phone. MAYbe I’ll get to nap on the turf tomorrow without anyone on it like I always...
Craaaap.
I stayed home from school today, planning on only skipping periods 1-4. I woke up feeling worse than when I went to bed, but after 15 conscious minutes I was okay. My mom came into my room and fed me rice porridge and fresh orange juice and some cold medicine. I planned on getting out of bed when my mom left to start studying, but the pills wore me down and I fell back asleep until 10:55. I...
Eventful Day!
I did so much today, but I didn’t accomplish much.
There was a sleepover, which turned into breakfast and Best Buy, and then Panda and CVS and Petco, then home. There was lots of Ramen and then tunnels and pictures and IHOP, and now hopefully studying. When I get my new phone on Tuesday (at the earliest…) I’ll have text and then finals will start.

Another thing:
I’m glad I’m not an angry person every day of the week. The more I thought about it, the more insulted I feel and the angrier I got.
Plus, today, Mr. Pearson really dissapointed me. For some strange reason, and by strange reason I mean for his own desire to entertain a group of < average minded freshmen, he required students to pretend like they were mentally retarded to answer...
I come home from work with a list of things to do before bed. I drag my feet through the door only to find the most pleasant of surprises. My mom cooked my favorite meal in the whole world, pot roast and rice, and she even put some in tupperware and the meat in a ziploc (which I hope was for me because I’m eating it right now). The only thing that is taking all my happiness away is the...
Me? →
My co worker said I reminded her of this woman. We have similar biographies… and freckles.
Retrocalcaneal Bursitis
afflicts my left ankle. It got a little worse today.
Thirty seconds left in the game and having missed twenty-some shots, I slip the ball off to Linda Oberle. We’re running up to the goal, by ourselves, and she gives me the ball to score. She had the open goal but she gave it to me. How sweet of her!
I can’t believe I got one of the three Bs in Dr. Mac’s class. I’ve...
Victory!
I’m so happy right now I want to brag. I scored our goal today! Vista’s record was scary (8-1) but we played our hearts out and now they’re 8-2. Muhaha. Then we (as in 5 of us) went to In-N-Out to celebrate and it was awesome. I’m going to bed now. I had 5.5 hours of sleep last night and I’m really excited I get to catch up on homework tomorrow. God, this win...
Let's see...
Tomorrow I have to wake up early so I can be in Knapp’s room by 6am. Jontae will not be present for our big game vs Vista, and 6am is the only time she’s available so that we can talk to him one on one. I have to write three letters and shower in time to get enough sleep for basic functioning tomorrow. Oog.
And on hand hugs: I love them so much they’ve become like real...
Profound.
Everything today was much more profound than usual.
In English, we analyzed a poem: Ode on a Grecian Urn. Aside from being very boring and very difficult to interpret, a part of me enjoyed one of its messages. On the urn is painted two lovers about to kiss. The poet is, throughout the passage, reflecting on how the urn itself has remained perfectly “unravished” though hundreds of...
God, are you serious?
My little brothers were killing each other when I was in the shower. I come out and David’s hysterically crying, picking up the pieces of his torn teddy bear, and Lee’s locked in my parent’s room too scared to face the consequences.
lol
The Paramore music video for Decode is funny. Kind of lame, really.
Haha.
4-0
My babies scored today!
Our underclassmen are too good. Within the next few years, Girls Marauder Soccer is going to reign.
Eager
I feel like I’m very eager to be a lot of people’s friends. It’s working out for me so far, I think. I’m just hoping no one takes advatage of it.
Why is it that in four minutes, my co-worker who took AP Calc last year can teach me “U Substitution”, while Van Grove can’t even define it for me? I finished most of my math homework at work and I’m...
Saved!
I’d forgotten all of the pictures from Thanksgiving I took. My art homework just got 100x better looking. Granted I didn’t write anything about a single picture, but I’m sure I’ll be fine.
6:17 p.m.
It’s like in the TV shows when a character dies and her ghost can’t cross over until she’s ready. Then she finds peace and moves on, and everyone who’s been encouraging her to do so is happy too.
Except I’m not dead.
Last night.
We had our soccer team bonding sleepover last night and before it began I went to Vons with Jihong and Sylvia to pick up food. Sylvia ruined my Burt’s Bees and was about to buy me one for $3 when I said, “Just give it to me.” I shoved it up my sleeve and it was the ballsiest thing I’ve ever done.
We laser tagged it up at midnight and it was a great success. After, we...
I'm lazy.
I’m too lazy to get mad, to change, to stoop to any level, to get out of bed.
Work today fucking sucked. I spilled liquid sugar all over myself twice and had to spend an hour cleaning it all up. Fuck 2009 so far.
2008:
Well that went badly.
Watching the ball drop on TV was different. This was the first year I didn’t run outside with my little brothers and bang pots and pans for all of our elderly neighbors to enjoy. The cheering and the kissing and the depressing, patriotic music was hard to watch, but I couldn’t take my eyes off it. It was like if my life flashed before my eyes, but it was...
