Oh my God! I stand corrected. I guess someone DOES read my journal of complaints. Well, here's to you, Kira!
After two months of debate, I'm tentatively deciding to go to UC San Diego. The campus has everything I want--the atmosphere, the wide variety of courses, bike paths, new housing--everything. It was the first school I visited and my top choice. That is, until UC Davis waved a scholarship in my face offering NINE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS. Let's just say that UC Davis started to look a lot better, especially since it was my 2nd or 3rd choice. I've gone back to UCSD twice now to take another look, but I still hesitate to send in that SIR confirmation. Does my hesitation serve as a sign that I might want to go to Davis more? I ish very confuzzled. @_@;; crying What do I choose?

You get gold for posting journal entries. God, I live under a rock. Well, I know no one reads my stuff anyway, so I can write whatever I want, I guess. Hmm, now that gives me an idea... twisted

...from studying for midterms.
Wow...I'm reading my entries, and I realize that the reason I don't like writing in a journal is that my hindsight is 20/20...and boy, I am glad I need glasses, so I don't have to see my ugly a** as I look into the future since my hind is nasty enough. Why do some of us cringe when we examine how we were in the past? What embarrasses us? How naive we are? Our inexperience?
Anyway, I really don't want to study, but I have to. Just fooling around now, since no one's posting in the FG rp. But I'm so proud that I can make it back on now!

Let's see how many topics I can change to in one paragraph.. |

Ever wonder what and why people write in their journals? I have never been able to keep one up for more than a month. I mean, sure, it's convienient at times, but who really has the time to take out of their lives to write down what has just happened to them? I actually think faster than I type, and I what I do end up typing sounds worse than it did in my head. I've always wanted to invent a machine that will record whatever narrative you have going on in your brain. I think up entire stories, and yet when I go to put it on paper I forget it. Of course. Oh! And I also want something that will record my dreams! It'd be fun to watch, since I always end up going on these adventures and stuff.
Okay, done with the crazy angsty teen thing. I really didn't mean anything about journals; just felt like ranting about something. Hey, sometimes I just gotta blend in with the crowd once in awhile. And yes, I'm quite aware that I was being a total hypocrite in the above "journal" paragraph. I'm like that. Actually, I'm not. What am I saying? Insane psyco on the loose, Gaia! Narf. mrgreen
And there are those time, too, when I must go completely wierd. These periods are usually preceeded by the "blending in" phases.
Yesterday I attended my first football game. Our school is notorious for losing, and yet we actually won 35-34. It was a close game, especially when there was a minute left at the end, and the other team was trying for a two-point conversion three feet from the endzone. I've never understood those teen movies where the school's all pepped up, and the cheerleaders actually do something, and there's actually popular people in a high school, and there's bullies, and the nerd kids, and the school lockers are actually more than two feet tall. Now that I think about it, my locker isn't even that tall; it's more like 1 1/2 feet tall and less than a foot wide. I've have so many books this year I can't even fit them all in there, plus my binders and such. I have 4 friggin English books! No wait, make that five--we were just assigned another book to read last Thursday. Why is it that schools make you read some of the most dry books out there? Take The Scarlet Letter for instance. Nathaniel Hawthorne is SO dry, it took me a day more than usual to get through it.
Despite my complaining, school this year isn't bad. I have Calc AB, Japanese 1, Bio II AP, English H, US History, and Spanish 4, in that order. Calc isn't as bad as I thought it was, but English and Spanish are the worst--too much busy work, thank you very much. My favorite class by far is US history. The teacher is completely nuts, but he's a great guy and really funny. Besides, we're all a little nuts, right? I love to sit there and listen to his opinions and stories, which seem right out of a novel or something, because they're so unbelievable. But he's a very honest person, which I like in people. No use beating around the bush, of which I am frequently guilty of.
So, I must conclude this and get back to my homework. Stay crazy. Narf/brokienitus! xd

crying Alas, summer vacation comes to an end. This one passed by the fastest, and it was the best by far. Now it's back to the school life, and all the pressures of finding the right collage and taking SATs, ACTs, etc...but first, one must finish summer homework, right?
Unfortunately, yes. gonk
So, given the few moments I have on here, I will proceed to make anyone who views this feel infinitely better about their summer situation by complaining about my workload that I managed to put off until the last month.
First off, there's three chapters of Biology that I must outline. Peachy. The reason I haven't been online is that I have been finishing these chapters, and now I'm down to the last 28 pages or so. So, thumbs up for me! Second is Spanish. Why in the world did I take this class? Well, I'm here in my fourth year, so I'd better just get it over with. I mean, I only have to translate three pages--no wait, make that four--of a story in Spanish, and then answer questions about it. I guess that's not too bad. This will be followed by several Calculus assignments, and lastly, there's the whopper--English. Gosh, I speak it fluently, what more do you want? Well, they want me to read four books, three of which I have read, and do an essay comparing two of them, as well as a chart about Ray Bradbury and a sales pitch about A Streetcar Named Desire. As soon as I finish this stuff, then it's back on the internet! Yay!
On the bright side, I just got all 26 episodes of Trigun for around $24. Not too bad, especially since I only have to pay half. And it's the real goods too, not any bootleg crap. So I'm happy, and I'll see if I can multi-task and watch Trigun and rp at the same time. pirate biggrin
OK, that's all for now. Off to see the Pagent of the Masters, which should be good. It's a nice follow-up to the King Tut exhibit, which I saw yesterday. Adios, peeps!

Anyway, for the good part, I walked over to Borders afterwards and spent a couple of hours sitting there and reading manga. And they were having a 3 for 2 sale! Score! So my sister and I bought DNAngel #7, Descendants of Darkness #4, and Fruits Basket #, uh...the one w/ Haru on it. Yes! I shall be entertained for an hour!
