Wednesday - Church. It was the same as it always is. Then we went to the Bullocks afterwards and watched AI. Fantasia and Diana made it through. I don't see how on earth that guy that sang "Walking In Memphis" made it into the top 3. Obviously, more Americans are tone deaf than I thought.
Thursday - An uneventful day. At school I took a lot of pictures were taken -- ( click )
Then I spent the night with the News and that was fun.
Friday - I had to wake up at 6 in the morning to get ready to leave for school for VICA. If you guys didn't know, me, Miles, Chris, Cale, and John were all in the Academic Bowl/Quiz Bowl. We loaded the buses and all and got to Columbus Technical College at about 8 and registered and all that. Then me, Miles, Cale, John, and Chris all followed this group of teams that we thought were other Academic Bowl teams but they were some kind of medical teams. So we asked some person where the Academic Bowl was going to be and they said in the library in some upstairs room. So we went to that room and found another team. They were all extremely ghetto people. We made friends with them, lol. But we were listening and this one girl was like "Alright, let's practice. How you spell Afghanistan?" and this other boy on their team was like "I-on-know, why we gon' need to know how to spell that anyway?" lol.
But then it turned out that the Bowl started at 10:30 so we went down and got French Vanilla Cappucinos (that were really good btw) and walked around. Then we all went back up to the room and started the Bowl. The final score came out to be 6 to 27 to 3. We were the 27, which meant we won and now we're going on to the state at the end of April. Then we sat around from about 11:20 until about 1:45. Then we went into the auditorium for the awards ceremony, which was supposed to start at 2. It started at a little after 2. People were getting cool prizes like $1200 software programs and expensive welding masks and the Academic Bowl team got a cheap calculator, a pencil, and a Columbus Technical College T-shirt in their bags. I was mad. Then we went to the bus and did circles around the parking lot, lol. I've never been so miserable in my life though. That whole day I had to wear uncomfortable clothes and I was sick the whole time. And then the bus ride seemed like it lasted 2 hours.
Then I helped blow up some balloons at the News while watching Oprah. There was some 50-year-old hoochie counselor woman on there. She posed nude for a magazine called "Over 50" and used sex toys in the spread and all that. Ew. She got fired from her couseling position at the school she was working at for it. But then me, Jamie, Travis, and Liz went to see "Guys & Dolls." I saw Anhjayla at the Chevron on the way and she said she was going too so we sat together there. In front of us there were these two old people that were makin' out the whole time, lol. The old guy would laugh heartidly and then lean over and kiss his wife and rub her shoulder. Then he'd reach over and grab the woman beside his wife's shoulder...lol :\ The play was excellent though. I spent the night with the News again.
Today - My mom picked me up from the News and dropped me off at Jamie's. We hung around for a while and then got ready to go the movies. We saw "Stuck On You." It was funny. Kind of depressing though, lol. Then we went to the mall and I got a cool belt from AE for $15. This belt:
It's cool. Anyway, we went by Movie Gallery and rented I'LL BE THERE!!, Fight Club, and MTV Pilates. We only managed to watch I'll Be There and then we ate and then finished it. Then they brought me home and my sister was supposed to be here to let me in and WASN'T so I had to knock on Nadine's door (she's one of the women who runs the place) and her husband came to the door and he offered to look for her with me. So we did that and we ended up in one of the downstairs apartments and I called the house. No one answered. I called my mom. She said she took everyone to Blockbuster to rent movies. It made me extremely mad. She told me that Allison would be here to open the door and I sat outside for like 20 minutes before I knocked on Nadine's door. Then I went back to our apt. and waited some more. My whole body was numb by the time my mom got there.
I made sure she knew I was mad. She was like "Are you okay?" and I was like "Yeah, I love standing out in 30 degree weather until my body goes numb" and she was like "Don't get smart with me" and I was like "Well if you just had to stand out in cold weather for about half an hour, you'd be a little on edge too." Then when we came inside I slammed my door. Childish I know but I was really upset. Anyway, now I'm sitting around doing nothing. My sister has 2 of her friends over. One of them is EXTREMELY annoying but the other is really nice and stuff. My brother's stayed locked in his room the whole time, thankfully. I have some movies too. I've got Fight Club (everyone always raves about how good it is and I haven't seen it yet), I'll Be There (CHARLOTTE'S MOVIE THAT'S EXTREMELY AWESOME), and All I Want (it's got Elijah Wood and Mandy Moore in it but I've never even heard of it...). So now I'm gonna go eat and watch those.
Sorry for the loooooooong entry.
Happy Valentine's Day

In Drama, Mr. Fuller gave one of his stupid speeches again that was unneeded and pointless. It was because Kristin and Brandy were standing around talking and he was like "Kristin! Why are you just standing around? You should be with your group" and she was like "We're waiting for the computer to warm up" and he gave her this look and went "Don't justify what you're doing, just do what I say." Then he tried to tell Brandy that she was talking about cheerleading and she was like "Cheerleading was not mentioned once in the conversation!" as she was walking out the door and he was like "Brandy! Do NOT walk out that door" and then he went into talking about how if he were a director and she was a professional actor, she wouldn't second guess him, etc., etc. That's what his speech was about :\ And then people try to justify his extreme moodiness and rudeness by saying "Well, he's got so much on his mind with 'Guys & Dolls'..." And? In my opinion, in order to get respect, you first have to show it.
It was early release today. At the middle school, the stupid assistant principal made all the people at the back of the lines in the back field wait because we parked too far back (or that's what he thought) and everyone simultaneously honked for like a minute, lol. It was so funny. I would've honked as I went by him and then would've flicked him off and shouted obscenities, lol. But I wasn't driving :\ Then we saw Anhjayla on the way to the News' house and I switched cars. We went to Goo Goo Car Wash, lol, and went through the car wash and we thought it was hilarious...for some reason. Then she vacuumed out her car. We rolled down our windows at the end of the car wash where they blow dry it, hah. Then we went and ate at El Carrizzo and came back to my house and I burned her a CD. My mom found out though and she didn't want me to bring her here for some reason but oh well. She said I was in trouble but I'm not. It's all good.
This song always makes me wanna get down, lol.
Today after school, me, Brantley, & Cecily (and possibly Justin Townsend (my favorite person in the world) and Terrell) were going to go to the movies but neither me nor Brantley have cars and neither of us had enough money on us. And both our moms would've got home at 4 (they both work at the same school). So that fell through. I wanna do something for Cecily though because her and her boyfriend broke up and she was all sad about it in Lit today. She cried a little. And he broke up with her for someone ugly too. Everyone knows the only reason he went out with the other girl is because she has big boobs, a big butt, and she's easy (or so that's what I've heard).
I'm going spring/summer shopping this Saturday. And then me and Jamie are having our "singles day," lol.
American Idol tonight!
And I read all of your entries but I didn't comment on all of them.

Tonight was fun. There was a bonfire/cookout at Ms. Hood's new plantation home (which is extremely nice btw). The fire was huge. There was a lot of food ( always a good thing :] ) and then we tried to roast hot dogs but failed miserably, lol. We couldn't get close enough to the fire because it would seriously burn the crap out of you if you even attempted to get close to it. Me and Jamie mostly hung out. I think people would think we were crackheads if they got around us and didn't know us, lol. We've decided that Saturday we're going to get together since neither of us are in relationships and have a "singles day," lol. I know we're going to see "The Butterfly Effect" (woo hoo) and doing Pilates, lol. Pilates is awesome.
I'm going to be on the Academic Team, haha. It should be fun though. There's a pop culture category and that's where I come in. It's me, Miles, Chris, John, and Cale as far as I know. We're leaving school Friday morning a little after we get to school to go and compete and we won't go to school for the rest of that day. Mrs. Sandifer (Miles's mom, who's the head of the school board) said she thinks we'd definitely get first so that's a good thing. Then we'd have to go to Atlanta in May for the championships or whatever, lol. It's going to look excellent on my college resumé, especially if we win first. So yes, I'm OFFICIALLY doing it to let everyone know.
Anyway, I'm watching the Grammy's right now. The Black Eyes Peas are performing right now. So far, these are the things I want to acknowledge:
[x] Poor Celine Dion. Her whole peformance was ruined. And she's such an awesome singer and then the crappy performers' peformances (cough cough Sting & Sean Paul) went perfectly. She was professional about it though. They should let her do it over.
[x] I didn't like the Beatles tribute.
[x] Christina Aguilera TORE IT UP.
[x] Justin Timberlake's peformance wasn't very good :\ It was average.
[x] Prince & Beyoncé were awesome.
[x] Why don't The Black Eyed Peas ever have Justin Timberlake perform "Where is the Love?" with them? He is at the Grammy's you know. The girl from the group just doesn't bring as much to the song as Justin does.
I smell like smoke from being around the fire. I can smell it on my skin...and yeah, I guess that's all. The end.

"THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT" IS ONE THE MOST AWESOME MOVIES EVER! The ending was sad. And about 5 or 6 times of jumping wildly in my seat, I figured out that at no point during the movie will I be able to relax without almost peeing my pants. I swear, there were like 50 different times where I jumped back in my seat and had to wait five minutes before I caught my breath again. Haha, I want that movie though. Everyone was PSYCHO in the movie. Btw, does anyone know where I could find shoes like these:
As gay as it sounds (lol), I noticed them in the movie and was like "I want those!" They look better in the movie though. I'm definitely an Ashton Kutcher fan now though.
But anyway, enough about that. Afterwards, I went over to Jamie's and we went to Blockbuster to look for "Under the Tuscan Sun." No luck. Then we went to Movie Gallery to look for it. No luck. It's an awesome movie so it's understandable why there wouldn't be any copies in, hah. We ended up getting "Malibu's Most Wanted" (never get tired of that movie) and some other random movie w/ Johnny Depp in it. We only watched MMW. Then we went into their computer room and I read a book about the Biltmore Estate because we're going to North Carolina for our trip this summer and we're gonna visit it. I'm excited!
I'm downloading the Fefe Dobson CD. She's too cool. All the songs on the album are awesome. I use awesome too much...yeah, but anyway, it's awesome.

Today has been fun so far. I woke up at about 10:30 and took a shower and then my mom asked if I wanted to go out to lunch with her and David. We ate at the Mediterranean Café. We all three got the baked ziti with chicken. We had fun. We talked about stuff and laughed. David's really cool and extremely nice. He's going to come live with us because he was about to move out of his apartment complex but then his son (who goes to Shaw) had a knife that he had given him for Christmas in his truck and they did a drug search and went out into the parking lot and found it in his truck and they arrested him and sent him in jail. Then David had to pay $3000 to bail him out. How RIDICULOUS is that?! I would've sued the school or something. Or vandalized the school, haha.
But anyway, then he had to pay his ex-wife $2000 because she's psycho and tries to take all of his money. Then his daughter's car broke down and he had to pay another $2000 to get it fixed because insurance wouldn't pay for it :\ So my mom said he could just stay here instead of staying in his apartment he's in now because he really doesn't like it for some reason. He's only been there for a couple of months and had a lot of problems with things in his apartment and neighbors and stuff. But yeah, enough about him, lol.
My legs are SO tired from driving today though. I don't know why. I feel like they're about to fall off :\ But my aunt's about to come over in 20 minutes or so and we're going to see "The Butterfly Effect." It'll be me, her, and Barry (her financé for those of you who don't remember who he is) and it should be fun.
Then tonight around 6 or 7 I'm going to Jamie's and we're renting, hopefully, "Under the Tuscan Sun." But I went to Blockbuster last night to rent some movies and they didn't have UTTS there so maybe it'll be at the Blockbuster by their house. It's such an awesome movie. But last night I rented "The Simple Life Season 1" DVD and "Marci X." Both were awesome. And it was funny seeing a guy I know in there. I don't really know him well but yeah, it's hard to explain. But he was Chip. Picture of him:
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.1) and him are like best friends though. He gave a funny performance. My favorite part was at the MTV awards when he was dancing in his seat. Made me laugh. And when the senator was like "What's that group you like so much?" he was like "Boys R Us!" Haha. Rent it though folks -- it was hilarious.
I need to sleep. I'll only get to sleep for like 10 minutes though :\ Better than nothing. I need something to drink. I'm about to die of thirst :O
Everyone should d/l this song.
Bradley, you can come over to take that picture today if you want if you come to town. I'll be home around 6:30.

 I'm sick again today. I can't even breathe out of my nose, I'm having stomach cramps, I have a really bad migraine, and a sinus infection. I have the heat on 80 and I'm wrapped in my throw blanket. Chris's party was tonight and I know I'm definitely not going to be going anywhere for a while :\ But you can see what I do when I'm at home and get bored if you look to the left, lol. I took some others too. I'll post 'em at the end of this entry. But anyway...
I was watching "Extreme Makeover" last night and they had this woman on there who volunteered around the community and fed old people and stuff and she got a makeover. It was sad. She definitely deserved the makeover. Me & Kristin were talking about how we should make ourselves really ugly and apply for it, lol.
That 11-year-old girl in Florida's body was found :[ I hope that guy dies. Okay, I have to go lay down now. But before I go...

 I stayed home from school today. I told my mom I needed to stay home and she was like "No, let me just give you this Pepto Bismal." Well, we were driving out of our complex and I was like "Pull over, I have to throw up." Then I threw up. So then she drove me back to our apartment and now I'm just sitting around. It's pretty boring. I wish I had a car so that I could drive somewhere and eat lunch and get a smoothie from Smoothie King :] Love that place.
I was just thinking though that next time I go up to Jessica's, I'll most likely have my car! So that way we can go out and not have to worry her parents about driving us and all that. Hopefully they'll trust me to drive us. Fayetteville/Peachtree City is full of four-way stops and I accidentally flew through one going about 50 once. But it was on Thanksgiving and it was pouring so no one was out on the roads. It was funny though. Jessica was like "Uh...that's a four-way stop" and I couldn't hit the brakes or we would've slid on the road so I tried to slow down as much as I could but still flew through it.
No one ever comments on my entries anymore. I'm sure you could find something to comment on. I only get like 4 comments per entry now...it's ridiculous, considering the amount of people I have on my friends list. SO COMMENT FOLKS!
Nothing good comes on TV now. Maury's on at 11 so that's good...as long as it's not one of those paternity test episodes :\ Hate those.

 I think life goes by too slow. My life is just so repetitive and I always finding myself bored with my life because it's like I'm doing the same things over and over each day. It's like wake up, go to school, come home, shower, sleep...every single day. And then on the weekends, since I don't have a car, I'm limited to the places where I can go. Don't get me wrong, I know I have a better life than most but I'm just saying.
On a less depressing note (lol), American Idol tonight! Everyone watch it. I can't wait until the show actually starts with the top 10.
We wrote some of our play in Drama today. I think we're going to have a really good play. I think that it's good so far. I somehow ended up reading for Carla, the Good Fairy, lol. We turned the cheese up in the first scene we wrote. It's funny.
My brother eats everything in the house. I went to get some Sunkist and it was about three-quarters gone...and we just got it yesterday. And then he screwed the top on as hard as he could and now my hand is sore from trying to open it. It took about five minutes to get it open. And then he stole some change from my room while I was gone yesterday. Like about five dollars in quarters that I had with some other change in a souvenir mug I have. I told my mom and she was like "Well Lucas, you should hide your stuff from now on" and I was like "But it's MY room and he has no reason to go in there! I shouldn't have to hide things from members of my own family in my own room." Ridiculous.
Hollister is the best. Even though I'd have to drive a long way to get to one ( the nearest two are 70 & 74 miles away :\ ), I went through and picked out all the stuff I want from there:
( And here it is... )

I came home sick today. I've been having stomach problems all weekend and the urge to vomit hit me today at school so my mom (who was out from work today because she has the same thing I have) came and checked me out. So I'm gonnna write about yesterday and then probably go sleep...
We had our soup thing at church yesterday and we had a good turn out. We got something like $400, right? When I first got there in the morning I was in an extemely bad mood but me and Jamie went and sat to "watch over" the dessert table and we talked and I got back in a good mood. It was fun though. We got to eat some of the desserts :] Alison gave me a bag of, like, 10 leftover potatoes, lol. We went to check out the new house too and it's coming along great. They have the hardwood floors down in the rest of the house. We have to get the flooring down in our part of the house and then we can move in. The church is making us pay for the floors in our part of the house :\ That's lame. They didn't make the Boy Scouts pay for their part of the house, did they (they use a seperate part of the house -- it's a huge house)?
Anyway, we all went back to the Bullocks and watched some "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" since they were having their marathon. Then we messed around on IP Relay. It was funny. "I DEMAND THAT YOU SPEAK WITH A CHINESE ACCENT!" lol.
Then we had youth. It was fun. A lot of people showed up. We had a lot of food too because we just took the leftovers from the dessert (each time I've tried to spell 'dessert' in this entry, I've spelled 'desert' and then had to go back and fix it...even just now when I typed it) table.
Afterwards, we went to Walgreens and got some snacks and went to the watch the SuperBowl at the News house. I liked the halftime performance except every performer lip synched...and made it obvious. Here's the infamous moment from last night:
I took some pictures yesterday:

American Eagle is awesome because you can get a $30 pair of shoes. I updated my fanlistings here. I downloaded "Songs You Know By Heart" by Jimmy Buffett!!!! Jimmy's awesome and I'm obsessed with this CD. I'm glad SoulSeek had it.
Look at this cool house (it's a resteraunt in Hamilton):
It needs some work (it looks a lot better in the picture) but I'd take it. Not as a primary house though.

Suggest to me...
1. A Movie.
2. A TV show.
3. A musical artist, song, or album.
4. A fun website.
5. An LJ user not on my friends list.

I thought this was funny:
( click )
lol. Well today, I called my aunt and she said that her and my dad and uncle and her fiancé (Barry) were all going out to eat and she invited me to go with them. I accepted and we decided on Carrabba's. We drove over there and some guy who was cleaning the sidewalks said that they don't open until 3...which is stupid. So we went to Chili's instead. I got the Tomato Basil Chicken Pasta. I thought it would be as good as Tomato Basil Chicken but it was just okay.
Afterwards, we went to A.C. Moore and then to Cingular Wireless to get some stuff and then headed out to Phenix City ( that's in Alabama :\ ) so that Barry could give his ex-wife something for one of his kids...a check for something. She was such a bitch. As soon as Barry got out, she was like "Why did you bring HER with you" (her = my Aunt Suzie). And then she was saying all this other crap and Barry was just like "Fine, I'm leaving now." Then my aunt was trying to lighten the situation when we left and waved to the woman and smiled and the woman flicked her off. Some people are just so immature. See, his ex-wife cheated on him and then she's turning it all around on Barry and turning his kids against him and stuff. What kind of decent person does that?
Anyway, then we stopped by the dollar store. That place was awesome, lol. They had a lot of cool stuff. It's like the place to go to buy things you don't need and will never use for cheap. Then we went to the mall and my aunt bought some make-up so that she could get this pink and white Clinique make-up bag, lol. I started to feel really, really sick when we were there too. I didn't let 'em know though. So then they wanted to go to Wal-Mart and I was like "Well, I think I can make it through going to Wal-Mart." Pssh, I should've gone on home. The whole time I felt like I was going to throw up :\ But I got some Eclipse Firy Hot Cinammon gum :]
I'm still feeling sick and now I'm just sitting around doing nothing. I have to "babysit" tonight. I can already tell my brother's going to be a problem...and my mom's not even letting him go outside!! I thought he had found someone to spend the night with but he hasn't :\ I hate him. You have no idea.

( A looooove survey, lol )
I saw "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" tonight. Not my favorite play. There was too much talking about the same thing. Eventually the lines would just start to sound like "blah blah blah blah blah, etc..." I liked the woman who was the old woman. She was exceptional. And, as usual, I saw Casey Hopkins (sister of Kristin Hopkins borntoshine). They had awesome meatballs afterwards. Oh, me and Jamie went into the Saloon and we got these 2 Cokes off of the bar because they were just sitting out and her mom said that she thought that they were complimentary earlier in the night so we grabbed them and this guy standing beside us was like "Do you want me to pay for those?" and I was like "Oh, I thought they were complimentary.." and he was like "(hearty chuckle) I'll get those for you." I'd like to find him and repay him. It was a really nice thing to do.
Now I'm home and I have a stomachache. A bad one :\ I have to go take a shower. I updated my fanlistings here. So you should check 'em out.
This song always makes me think of you Izzy!
I can't pronounce the word 'clasped'. At all. I sound stupid.

Today was a lot of fun. In Drama, our group just talked for about 15 minutes and then everyone went to help out with the sets on stage and I "helped" Kathryn with her costumes she has to design for her group's play idea. Then we went and drew lines, lol. They're making bricks on the sets and you have to do all this measuring and drawing and painting and marking off.
Then in second block, we had a vocabulary test. I think I did good on it. But then we started reading "Lord of the Flies" again. Apparently, I'm the only person alive that likes that book, lol. But it was Tory, then me, then Quita that read. We all flew through the story because we're all good readers. But then this other girl read after Quita and, no joke, it took her 5 minutes to read 1 paragraph. I was like "Oh..my..God, READ FASTER!!" Not really. But she got to the word 'delicately.' She pronounced it like 'de-lie-cuht-lee', 'del-i-cate-ly', 'dee-like-uht-lee' and I was like "...Delicately." COME ON! It's a word you learn in 4th grade.
Third block was easy. It was a lot of notes then some work. I have a little bit of HW from that class but it's easy so it should be a breeze.
Fourth block was funny because we watched that French video from yesterday again, lmao. It's hilarious. We took a test though and I got a 1 out of 21 points, lol :\ We're doing the same test Tuesday though and it can take the place of that grade so I must study. Then we got partners and made questions in French and then answered them (also in French). lmao, Brantley was singing that song from the Queens of Country CD commericial THE WHOLE PERIOD called "Funny Face." It was hilarious.
I don't think Kennan went to school today so I got a ride with Anhjayla. The guy who rode with us (Josh-something -- he's Dekle's step-brother) put in his Insane Clown Posse CD, lmao. It was okay, but kind of scary, lol. Now I'm about to go and shower and stuff to get ready to go to the Springer to see "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."
...Digusting.
Some sad news (got this from Christie xcutiex:
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Mary-Ellis Bunim, credited with creating numerous reality TV hits, including MTV's "The Real World," is dead.
Bunim, 57, died in Burbank, California, Thursday after a long battle with cancer, her publicist said.
She began her television career in soap operas. Then, in 1990, she and Jonathan Murray combined the documentary nature of news and the dramatic intrigue of soap operas to create The Real World.
She also co-created "Road Rules," "The Love Cruise," "Making the Band," "The Real World Road Rules Challenge," the reality feature film "The Real Cancun," the real-life daytime drama "Starting Over," and "The Simple Life," Fox network's major prime-time reality hit of the 2003 season, starring Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie.
"Mary-Ellis was a one-in-a-million partner and friend, and I will always treasure our incredible years of collaboration," Murray said. "Even as the family at Bunim-Murray Productions mourns her loss, we will honor her memory by remaining committed to her ideals of creativity, adventure, and excellence, both on the screen and in our lives."
Bunim is survived by her daughter, Juliana.

Today was tiring. I was tired ALL day long. I guess it's since I got so worn out last night and then didn't get to get into bed until 11 :\
But anyway, in first block, we worked on ideas for our children's play we have to write (it has to be 25-30 mintues...oy). We have this guy in our group who is SO annoying. We tried to explain this certain part of the play to him and he'd nod his head and be like "Okay." Then he'd be like "...Okay, so now what's the tree in there for?" We had to explain it to him seriously, like 10 times. Kristin's awesome. She's hot and should try out for American Idol because she would win it.
But then in second block, me and Brantley made sure to volunteer to read so that none of the ghetto people could. Both of us combined read about three-quarters of the chapter, lol. The ghetto people cannot read at all. It was funny.
Third block was a lot of note taking but really, really easy classwork/homework.
Fourth block was hilarious. Those videos we watch make me laugh so hard.
This song is from the best movie ever -- "Love Actually." The little girl who sings this is awesome.
I'm tired and have a headache. I'm in a bad mood. Tomorrow I'm going to the Springer though. It should be fun. I left my camera in the Bullocks' car :[ I was gonna take some pictures today.
CHECK OUT MY AWESOME KAREN ICON. She's awesome.

First block. We did our monologues today. I always, always do this thing where I look at the audience instead of not focusing on them and then I think about 10 different things and it always makes me forget what place I'm at and stuff, lol. I called line twice. I made a 92 though so that's good. I think I did pretty good though.
Second block. We started "Lord of the Flies" today. It's really interesting so far. I can't wait to watch the movie. I love that movie. I saw it on Bravo a couple of times. Only different bits and pieces...I've never seen the movie as a whole. But we did a lot of small activities that deal with the story and those were boring.
Third block. Mrs. Pool wasn't at school again today (the substitute yesterday said that yesterday she was going to come to school but had a "sudden emergency"). Our substitute was Mr. Carmack and he lets us do anything so that class was a breeze. Tomorrow we're watching a video so that mean I'll be sleeping the entire class. We have to take a test on it afterwards but I can just copy off of someone beside me.
Fourth block. It was pretty funny. Sarah White was talking about how she was blasting "Treat Her Like A Lady" by Celine Dion in her car this morning, lol. That song is hilarious. I could just imagine her singing at the top of her lungs along with the song and gettin' down to it. That's a crazy girl. That reminds me, yesterday she was talking about how she was spending the night with Kristin borntoshine and she said that Kristin had this brown eye shadow and they put it all over her face to see what she would look like as a black person, lmao. She said she had a wig and all too.
Anyway, then I cam home and slept. No surprise there. Kristin Hopkins -- you must try out for AI if they do another season (I honestly don't think they will though) and show these horrible people what singing is.
edit I forgot to mention that my brother got in a fight at the bus stop (his bus stop is the main office building of our complex) with this other boy he used to be friends with. He obviously fails to realize that when you're living in a civilized place, you're expected to act like a civilized person. But anyway, he got "grounded" from the TV and PS2 and can't go outside (the restriction from the TV & PS2 lasted about 10 minutes...) and he got a spanking, lol. But she never does anything to him when he does bad things and so he thinks he can just get away with anything...and really, he can. I swear that the only phrases I ever hear out of him anymore are one of the following:
"Shut up fag!"
"You faggot!"
"(flicks whoever he's talking to off)"
and that's about it. He makes me so frustrated. Like when I'm in the car with him for just 2 minutes to go drop him off at his friend's house in the neighborhood next to ours, he annoys the living crap out of me. Whenever I'm around him, an intense rage builds up inside of me and I could bust him in his face at any moment. But see, if I do that, I get in trouble for it...but if he did it to me he definitely wouldn't get in any trouble whatsoever for it. Can't wait to drive so I can get out of this damned house.

First off, I found the funniest thing in my friend Chris's (thefuriousbacon) journal. It's called "How To Become A Ninja." It's hilarious. Click here to check it out. And here's my ninja picture:
lmao, yeeeeah.
Anyway, today was really fun. Izzy, David, and Mrs. Bond all came to see "Love Actually" with me & Jamie. That movie is one of the best movies ever made. It was sad the whole time. If I wouldn't have been in the theater, I would've been having an emotional breakdown, lol.
After that, me and Jamie went to the mall and she went tried on a dress in Dillard's. It was a very cool dress. It looked very Nicole Kidman-ish to me. Oh, and I found another person who's obsessed with Nicole Kidman -- Izzy. I didn't know she liked her as much as she did. It's good to find another fan. But anyway, after Dillard's it was off to abercrombie [kids]. I tried on a pair of shorts, a pair of jeans, a couple of T-shirts and 2 really awesome button-down shirts. They're so awesome. I'm getting both of them when I go spring shopping. They're both long sleeves though :\ I just thought about that. Dang...that sucks. Well, we'll see how that goes. And Jamie tried on stuff there too, lol. It was funny seeing her in their stuff because she doesn't like abercrombie/A&F so yeah, it was a miracle that she tried on stuff. The store was all empty and stuff though. The mall was FILLED with ghetto people...that's probably why no one was at abercrombie -- ghetto people don't shop there.
Well, I bought a shirt from there that was $17.50 and it had been marked down to $9.90 and then on the table there was a sign that said "50% off all redline items." So I got one of the shirts I tried on. It was the best deal I've ever gotten anywhere. The total came out to be $5.25. Jamie's phone went dead so we had to use one of the pay phones to call her mom to come get us. But we got some take-out from Sbarro. Sbarro rocks. Then we went to her house and Brittany came over and showed us her new car and hung out for a while. Then she left and me, Billy, Alison, and Jamie all watched the Chocolate Pastry Championship, lol. It was so interesting. Those people could make the most amazing sculptures out of chocolate. Then we watched "Cheaters." It was hilarious, as usual. That's the funniest show ever that's not intentionally made to be funny. Then Travis brought me home.
Now I'm home. I walked in and turned around and my brother's bedroom door was open and there was a HUGE Slipknot poster hanging on his wall...he doesn't even know who they are. One of his loser friends have it to him because he's moving from our complex. He hasn't ever even heard Slipknot. Hopefully he doesn't start getting into that type of music...or I'll die.
