Current Happenings in my pathetic life: This will probably be more bad stuff than good, because it takes a miracle or two for anything good (or even mediocre) to happen in my life, and no, I'm not being sarcastic. Leave now if you don't care to listen to me whine.

~*06.02.02*~ Well, whaddaya know. I had to work today.
My last day was Friday, and to be quite honest, this senior stuff hasn't actually "sunk in" yet. I don't think it will until graduation. Besides that, I have to go back tomorrow morning for our Senior Breakfast (a.k.a.~ the usual slop, only a few hours earlier) which will be followed by graduation rehearsal.
Graduation is the 9th. ;-)
I also went to a graduation party yesterday for my friends Julie and Mike.
I am, by the way, still sick. thank you for caring.
Updated Revelations.
I bought Weezer's Maladroit on Friday. -Interesting. Very interesting.
Also, I gave a friend of mine a copy of The Art of Drowning on....Thursday, and as a result, there is now one more AFI fan in the world. Awesome, awesome, I feel like I've done a good deed.
~*06.06.02*~I've been working a lot recently, which accounts for the lack of updates here.
However, I have a kitten now, her name is Articia. (Articia is the girl character from the Art of Drowning album art). She's awesome.
New pics coming soon.
Graduation in 3 days...
I'm still sick. Ugh.
More later, no time. Sorry.
~*06.08.02*~ Wow. I can't believe it.
By this time tomorrow, I'll be officially graduated.
To be quite honest, I don't know what I'm feeling at this moment. Probably most of all, just plain anticipation and disbelief.
Over the past 2 days I've gone to a lot of graduation parties, and when I was at my 2 best friends' today, I realized that the number of people I'll actually miss I can probably count on both hands, and maybe even have a finger or two to spare. Sad? not really. I like knowing who I can truly count on, and if that number is small, that's perfectly okay with me!
No, I don't think I'll fully grasp the graduation concept until once college starts. Some people I know are already planning out a whole bunch of things, but I prefer to take it on a more step-by-step basis. The more you map out your life, the less you can watch it unfold in front of you. (At least that's what I think, and, believe it or not, I have been known to be wrong from time to time.)
So what happens next, I don't know. I don't think any of us do, really. We all know where we'd like to end up, but some things are out of our hands now.
All I know is that I wish that all my friends make choices that will benefit them, and that they aren't too reckless with their new freedom. I know I sound like a parent, and that not many people I know actually will, but at the same time, it doesn't mean I can't worry about them just the same.
On another note, I'm proud of all the obstacles I've been able to overcome these past 4 years. Not to mention all the years before that.
I keep thinking of the story my mom has told me of when I was a baby. The doctors told my mom that the biggest thing she should ever expect me to do would be to sit unassisted. They felt that she should just take me home and "love me while she had me", implying they assumed I would die in a relativly short amount of time. Thankfully, I was as stubborn as my mom, and I managed to pull through that time. I'd like those doctors to be there tomorrow, so I can see their faces as they crap their pants watching me walk up to get my diploma. I know that sounds mean, but I absolutely don't care. -I've done it, not just made it to graduation, but made it alive- something many assumed I wouldn't do.
So to graduates everywhere: It's been a long road, but we've made it, finally.
Best of luck to everyone in their futures!!
~*06.15.02*~ Hey,e rll I haven't written in a while, b/c I've been super busy. But anyhow, last night was my graduation party, and I noticed you weren't there...why not??
As for the actual graduation part, it was ok. It's over, that's all that matters. I have a whole bunch of pictures from graduation parties that I went to and junk like that which I'll put up as soon as I'm no longer feeling too lazy to scan them. So, in other words, that could be a while.
I'm tired as shiz right now b/c I was up until 2 this morning. But I was writing, so it's my own fault. I didn't get home from my party till midnight, so I had to do it sometime.
In other news, I have Weezer in my head.....if you do too, awesome.
~*06.22.02*~ Arggghhh.......AFI is playing in Louisville, KY today,and I almost got to go. But no, of course I didn't because things had to go and suck eggs as usual.........
I'm in a terrible mood today, and I actually have been for a while now. Try, I dunno, when I was born.
I went to work today (as I do every day) and I've already been annoyed at the fact that we are "remodeling". I say it that way because in reality, its far worse than that. *presses lips shut tightly*
Some things should be left unsaid, and so that's where I'm going to leave it before delving into my personal feelings regarding the changes in my workplace. Let's just be super vague and say that I don't like them. At all. That's safe enough.
I may have even more reason not to like them, though, and this reason is far more serious and could turn into a small Civil-ian War better known as Descrimination on the basis of me having a disability. Ha, I have your attention now, don't I? Well that's a pitty, because if you want to know more, you'll just have to ask me yourself. I'm not going to be a gossip column, all I'm doing is letting off a little steam.
In other news: Life sucks and then you die. (the previous statement was for those of you who may have just been born and are checking out my page. It expresses the authors views entirely, and should be accepted as fact where ever possible.)
I've had a lot of songs in my head recently, and it would take too long to write out what they all are. Actually, no...I'm just lazy. Sorry. Haha, but there's one that makes me laugh to think about it. It's a version of Eminem's The Way I Am that has semi-hard sounding guitars and Marilyn Manson (who I hate) in it. It probably already sounds bad to you, but it's interesting just the same....
I know I don't write as much as I did before, but ironically enough, I have less time now than I did when I was still in school. Since I have the next 2 days off work, I don't know what might happen. I might just go postal and have to be committed someplace. Why am I telling you, though? *sigh* - you wouldn't come visit me, anyway....
