karina and i had so much fun today and a lot of the time was spent driving around on a mission; to find a frozen lemonade stand. heheh. we found one and it was worth the search. we got pretzels too! heheh...
well, we went to see "barbershop" with ice cube and eve. it's a really funny movie. there were a whole bunch of superfluous scenes that didn't need to be in the movie, but they were funny and how else are you going to fill in 2 hours? heheh. anyhoo, i recommend it very muchly. *smiles* now, i have to write a paper on it. i just hope i can remember the characters names. i really paid attention to the small things such as the background and background noises. my teacher's right about how lots of people watch movies in a shallow way. parodies are usually a good example of movies that get shallow laughs. i'm still trying to get out of the zombie mind frame when i watch a movie.
oh, karina and i were the only people in the movie theatre! heheh. well, up until the movie started and then an elderly couple walked in. before the couple came, karina and i were yelling, "hey you! down in front!" it was fun.
well, don't forget to listen to ted tonight from 9 to 11! >>TURN IT UP BABY!<<

09/29/02
8:03pm - listening to garbage. i think i'll enjoy them at concert. i'm looking forward to the distillers too. curious about new music, but i'm mainly going for no doubt. *grins*
well, my dad got a new printer/scanner/copier, so i've scanned some new pictures. all i have to do is take "inventory", upload, and organize. then, you'll get to see never before seen pictures. isn't that exciting?! ...no? eh...
heheh
hmm... i just lost my train of thought...
oh! i'm going to the movies with karina tomorrow. i was supposed to go saturday, but mari "dissed" me. *pouts* er maybe something came up. *shrugs* i'm still waiting for her to call me back. anyway. this is good for me and karina cause we haven't hung out in a long time. good times... good times...
well, my brain just got lazy and is telling me that i have nothing else to write. hm, reminds me of a producer on a radio show. cool. *smiles*
this is 96.6 fm (freaky mari) signing off. tune in next time when the aliens visit our studio for an exclusive interview!
******************
09/28/02
3:56pm - the day is over! i am finally awarded with sleep!
right after i write about today... heheh
i handed in my process paper and being the good kind of crazy teacher he is, my english teacher let us leave 40 minutes early again. either he's really lazy or he really is just that cool. *shrugs* i'm not sure anymore. heheh. i think he's cool. for our next paper, he's making us see a movie. not too bad. i'm going to like this assignment. heheh.
well, my other classes were eh... same as usual.
after school, i went to high school. heheh. for field research that is. i was going to observe my little brother's ap bio class. well, mr. wemple and i were talking and rayon came over and just stood next to me.
mr. wemple said, "oh i see the resemblance now."
"oh no...," i said.
"oh my gosh! you guys are wearing the same color scheme!" mr. wemple pointed out.
i looked at rayon. he was wearing a red t-shirt with dark blue trim and dark jeans. i was wearing a red t-shirt over a long sleeve, dark blue shirt and dark blue nylon pants. oh man... how the heck did that happen?!?! people were asking us if we planned it, but we didn't. how embarassing... i guess i just have to make sure that we don't wear the same thing when i'm going to observe his class.
well, now, i get my much needed rest
good afternoon and good night
******************
09/27/02
9:29am - alas, another gloomy day and i'm still tired.
well, it took me all night, but i finally finished my paper around midnight. my computer was playing mind games with me though. as i was about to click on the print button, my computer froze. grr... at least i finally got it to print. oh, and i took my dad's printer. i have to return that to his room later today. when i get home, i'll post my paper up in the random writings section. akamai and a couple of my classmates read it and liked it. it's a silly paper to me. i'm silly when i'm sleepy. i've never been high, but i suspect that i would act the same as when i'm really sleepy, but without al the fatigue. maybe. i don't know. i have no clue. look at me. i'm rambling. so tired. need sleep, but day won't end. why?!?!?!?!?!
*cough*
anyway
i have a full day ahead of me. right now, i'm taking a break because my english teacher is so gracious and let class out 40 minutes early again. this is how i take a break. i write on a website. i should really take a nap, but sleeping in public is really unsettling to me. so much happens when you're awake. imagine if you were sleeping while all of it was happening!!!!!
now, i have 3 more classes to attend. then, i have to go to classical and take some notes. oh, i hope i don't fall asleep. that would suck. after field research, i go home and i sleep for the rest of the day. *sighs*
so, how are you doing today?
******************
09/26/02
4:15pm - today was a mopy day.
tonight is going to be busy.
the sky was grey and rain lightly drizzled down. i guess the weather really does affect people. my friends weren't having a good day. *pouts* as corny as this will definately sound, i wish hugs could cure whatever ailed you, but alas, that's just an impractical wish. well, hugs can cure a few things, but not fevers. that sucks. i want hugs to cure fevers. grr... heheh. another grr heather.
anyway, i wasn't really mopy. i was more tired. last night, around 11pm, i started to get a bad headache. it must have been the lack of sleep. so you see, sleep is important. it builds up your immune system and helps you with memorization. oh yea, and it helps you grow. heheh. not me so much lately.
well,i have a busy night of homework ahead of me. i have to study for history, review psychology notes, and write my darn process paper! i hope my printer works. *crosses fingers* it's been broken this past week. poor printer, but then again, i want to kick it. oh well...
oh! lastly, in history class, this guy kept looking at my notes as i was writing them down. i guess he couldn't keep up with the teacher or something. well, by the end of class, he asked to see my notes to copy. "sure," i said. after a little while of writing, he said, "my handwriting's ugly," and here's the funny part, "but i look good and that's not my opinion. that's a fact." i didn't really know how to respond. i just chuckled. heheh. talk about an ego! he's not unattractive, but he's not as attractive as he claims. eh... maybe i just say that cause he's not my "type". eww... i don't like that term very much. "type". sounds pretty harsh to me.
man, i really have to get to work now.
bye bye
******************
09/25/02
1:46pm - oh yea... "psycho" by system of a down. such a good song and album. mmm...
well, i don't think i will be moving away from angelfire any time soon. i'm broke. heheh. so i couldn't possibly afford to fund my own site yet. eh, it'll happen one of these days. i'll probably create another site when i start teaching as a resource for my students to visit. oh man. that's gonna be so cool.
...no, i think it's just me when i say it's cool. who else thinks it's cool? am i being just a dork again? mm... macaroni and cheese... oops. rambling again. heheh.
if you'll notice, the archive list is no longer at the bottom of the page. yesterday, i decided it looked too... blah... yea, that sounds right. so i made an archive page for you, the consumer of my site, to choose what old news you want to read. heheh.
i've been just trying to make this site a little more efficient. how am i doing? well, you might not notice a change, but that's because i've only been working on the random writings section. i'll move on to the gallery when i am done with writings.
well, if you are done reading this, you can explore the site. i don't know where i would say to start, but anywhere is good. don't forget to check out my links page. it's got good stuff on there.
*********
6:17pm - i think the time on my computer is wrong, but i don't have my watch and i'm too lazy to go get it. heheh.
well, i woke up a while ago from a nap. i heard my dog barking outside. i looked outside to see a little neighbor boy walking out of my driveway from my backyard. grr... not something i want to deal with when i wake up.
"get out of the yard!" i yelled from my window.
he looked around quickly and muttered something along the lines of, "suck my balls," or he might have said, "i went to get my ball," seeing as how he was carrying a basketball. well, he doesn't look like the type of hoodlum to say the latter.
"[expletive deleted]," i said exhausted from sleep.
the little kid repeated me. grr... and in a mocking manner. keep in mind here, this kid is about 11 years old.
ugh... what a punk!
i can't believe the nerve of young children these days. no respect for their elders and for other peoples' property, and absolutely no sense of tact! grr... it just makes me really angry and i have to vent someway. i need to listen to some tori, but this mellow 3eb song (the background) will do for now.
*sighs*
i wish my neighborhood was more connected and in a positive way, but that kind of thing can only be seen on television. i have a few nice, polite neighbors, but some aren't just that affable. they're loud, they block your driveway with their hunk of junk of a car, and they let their kids run around in the streets like maniacs and trespass on other peoples' private property!
the pangs of society...
******************
09/24/02
8:53am - good morning to anyone that is reading this.
last night was so much fun and all i did was listen to the radio! well, i didn't just listen to the radio. i chatted with ted who was hosting the radio show. he is so whacky. heheh. silly ted. well, if you'd like to listen to his radio show (and i know you really do *shakes her fist*), it's on monday nights from 9pm-11pm. it's a hard rock show so don't call in or request songs by britney spears. darn... you're probably going to do that now, huh? well, don't tell him i told you that. oh, and you need windows media player to listen to the show. *cheesy smile*
anyway, so i requested for ted to play any song by system of a down at the beginning of the show. he totally forgot about my request and played a whole bunch of other ones. then, i reminded him so he played "suite-pee" for me. yay! i was so happy. it just made my day... er entire evening. heheh. and he called me por-a-roonie. wheeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!
now, i'm sleepy because i stayed up late and got up early. oky, maybe i don't sound so sleepy, but that's just because my hands are more awake than i am and they're typing maniacs.
this morning, my first class (composition) was cancelled so i'm here in the computer lab. everyone looks like zombies. heheh. all staring at computer monitors... heheh. it's sort of science-fictiony. yea, it's not a real word, but i'm going to use it darn it!
it looks like my hands are talking to much. i have to shut them up.
well, i just want to leave you with a reminder to visit my random writings page. i'm putting up new stuff.
later "peeps"
muahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!...
*********
8:51pm - hi again.
so i went to classical to continue my field research. it was fun today, but i was still tired from the lack of sleep.
school ended and i should've just went home, but i got dragged into staying for the first philosopy club meeting by heather and nick. it was fun even though the meeting consisted of a lot of yelling about who wanted to be treasurer (keep in mind that this was the first meeting and the club is broke. heheh) oh, nick let me listen to dream theater. it was good music. i'll have to look them up now. heheh.
it's really weird. i've left high school, but i keep going back, which is also partially due to my field research assignment. *sighs* college is okay, but it's only junior college for now so it's just like high school, but i feel so much more insignificant in such a large population of students. meh... i'll get over the feeling sooner or later, but right now, it's making me want to go back to high school. not too good. oh well...
******************
09/18/02
6:40pm - so i finally realize why my parents stressed a good education and i think i can see the importance of it beyond what my parents saw.
dude... i'm such a dork, but this is true stuff. well, maybe it's just my opinion.
anyhoo, i'm seeing these kids in high school just blow off class. it sucks. i mean, you're getting a free education. live it up! don't wait until you have to pay for it in college just to see that you wasted valuable learning time in high school. believe me. i wish i had worked harder or at least payed more attention. it's hard work to pay attention of course, but all things worked for pay off in some way. it's karma.
and if you're not looking to work hard, then take some fluff classes. heheh.
me. dork.
yea, i've started to speak in fragments now. it's weird.
well, i have a paragraph to write about how to sit in a chair now. heheh. s'fun.
******************
09/14/02
8:14pm - holy moly. i didn't even realize that yesterday was friday the 13th. i guess it's a good thing. i don't like to be superstitious.
well, no doubt will be in the same state as me in about a month. that's awesome! i can't wait to go to their concert. it'll be my first no doubt concert. amanda was supposed to come, but she's going to berlin so it seems that i will be lacking my no doubt buddy. i am going to the concert with mari. oh! and i'm bringing my gwen painting with me (painting in august archive). this is so exciting.
*falls asleep*
hmm... narcolepsy, eh...
******************
09/12/02
11:27am - i'm at school right now just hanging out with marcus. he's crazy about dragon ball. he's bidding on some stuff at ebay right now.
anyhoo, so i have to do this field research at classical for my educational psychology course. it's fun. i started on tuesday. people keep asking me why i come back because i graduated just a few months ago.
yesterday, i went to observe mr. wemple's anatomy/physiology class. i participated in the lab they were doing. they were extracting dna from wheat germ. now i have my very own wheat germ. i messed up the lab a little, but that's okay. i got my dna.
i also went to the theatre meeting yesterday. yes. i have no life... oh well. it was fun. i got to sign the signature book and mark down my grade as 13. hehehe. i also got some pictures of last year's performances from mad c. i have to get another scanner for those.
well, i don't know what else to write about so... yea...
