I advise you not to read this, as I'm probably just going through one of those "stages" and I can't sort out my feelings at the moment... and there're possible spoilers for the seventh book of Harry Potter to those sensitive to the topic.

I can say to myself that I want to die and be finish/cheat the journey called life, and yet I'm still so very afraid of the thought of my life ending and forever closing my eyes.

The seventh Harry Potter book is by far the first story that has impacted me so strongly. After the book, I cry. Whether it was because I didn't want the adventure to end, or the fact that I knew all too well what was inevitable in the story, or simply the commanding air of death, I ended up silently crying in bed, holding the book as if it were a bible (...yeah). I think it was the death count. I refuse to reveal any names for the sake of the readers who have yet to begin reading or finish the book, but for the first time, the concept of death seemed so... dangerously frightening. My friends are probably going to call me a fag for saying this, but... maybe I've misunderstood what death is.

I remember my cousin posting a picture around her page somewhere with a side note saying she occasionally wakes up on 3am in the middle of the night on a Friday and she'll realize that "Omigod, we're all going to die." Which, I realize with honest fear, is very true.

I'll end my choppy and meaningless thoughts here, I hope that people have good opinions on the book. I'll take this last sentence to say thank you, J.K.Rowling, for having written an excellent series... I think I'll go back to lookng for nargles..

There's no hope in me getting a B in Algebra 2. I hate math and my grade just seems to sink lower and lower.

I went to the Anime Expo couple weeks ago... I'm happy 'bout that. I entered a voice acting competition over there, impersonated Ed from Cowboy Bebop. The prize was an iPod. My friend and I entered together, but she backed outta the competition to go to a concert, so I kept her number. Someone else knew I had a number, and she wanted to enter 'cause she was late for signing up. So I gave it to her. Well guess what? That girl won the competition and she got that iPod. I. Have. The. Worst. Luck. Ever.

I actually got autographs from Vic Mignogna, Chris Patton, and Monica Rial; Edward Elric, Greed, and Dante/Lyra from FMA respectively. I also got autographs by some people who did The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya if I'm not mistaken about the title. Unfortunately, I'm still pissed/happy/sad about the iPod. My dad always wanted one, too...

My brother had a birthday party and one of my cousins skipped again. I haven't seen him this whole year, and I dunno if I can go over anymore. We had a pool war between the middle schoolers and the high schoolers during the party. In other words, 4 (if you include the "lifeguard" versus... 5 brats. Two of them were my sister's friends, and they KEEP TOUCHING MY STUFF!! AUGH!! STAY THE FU(K OUT YOU LITTLE B*T(HES!! Their reason for doing so: "So, it's not your stuff." WHAT THE FU(K DO THEY NOT GET ABOUT MY ROOM?! THE STUFF (except my brothers' stuff) IN IT IS MINE. MY ROOM, OUR HOUSE. THEY DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO TOUCH OUR STUFF UNLESS IT'S NATHALIE'S!! IF THEY JUST STAY THE HELL OUT THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY GODDAMN PROBLEMS!! YOU LITTLE B*T(HES!!

I went to see Harry Potter and Ratatouille with my brothers... Harry Potter 5 was... okay, but if I have to place the movies in order of liking, I have to say 1, 5, 2, 4, 3. Best effects, but the story was choppy. I liked the white mist/black mist effect as far as the good and evil part went through during the fight. Although I don't want to say it, I think Harry'll die in the Last book. By the way, didja know they're selling Harry Potter uniform at Hot Topic?

Ratatouille seemed funny to me, but when Linguini got drunk... it really freaked me out. o_o The cooking rat family idea was pretty cute.

I'm not even getting paid, but I still have to do my 'job' babysitting some wannabe smarties? What kind of bull$hit is that?

And I kinda get Algebra 2 now. Omigosh.

Started my summer job and it sucks. ~_~ I'm not sure we're even getting paid anymore.

Hahaha, I found this on the Logic Quiz that I tried doing for the Decathlon kids.

"A marksman shoots first and whatever he hits is his target."

My brother and sister decided to sneak into my room to play the PS2 while I was out one day, and when I got back, they were still there. I tell 'em to get the F*** out so I can sleep, and my brat of a brother spills water all over one of my 11x14 drawing notebooks. I had a drawing in there I was going to finish up for a friend's birthday and it's all wet. The paper that bore the brunt of the flood is now all wavy and I don't know if I should continue that drawing or start a new one. I'm glad to know that my parents actually care about my drawing habits, because when I told them about it, they actually flipped instead of shrugging it off or pretending to care.

My dad is such an ass!! I made a bet with him: If I got a B+ or higher on my final Algebra 2 grade, I get a game. If I don't, he takes the PS2. Fair enough, in my view. Then he denied it and said he'd get the PS2 AND the TV AND I won't be allowed on the computer. Asshole. A game is so not worth going through the hell in Algebra 2 summer school and it's not worth losing all the stuff I listed. Assuming I will still get paid, I can get a game next week if I wanted. -_- I'm going to see if I can make the bet a little riskier for him now. I bet he's not even gonna buy me a game by the end of this and he's just going to weasel his way out of this.

Going to the AX. Anyone going? ^_^

Last day of school was two days ago. Some people were stupid enough to throw their computer books away. DUMBASSES!! Looks like they're not earning any money from the freshmen booksale. Level Up!! ^^ I AM NO LONGER FRESHMEAT, I AM SOPHMEAT!! HUZZAH!! Finally, our class moved up the high school ladder! Yatta!! ^^ I look forward to seeing my freshmeat friends in August/Summer School, yeah! ^^

Later that last day, I went to dinner with my adoptive brothers. I think I talked too much because by the time they were finished, I was still poking at my mashed potatoes. o_o.

Unfortunately, yesterday I missed the eighth graders' graduation. Sorry Quimpo-chan! >< I went out with my parents cause they wanted to do this family thing...

Summer's looking fun. Summer school, hanging out at my place, swimming... a summer job where I earn $10 an hour. That's $80 bucks a week!! Too bad I don't work on Fridays... but I'm lovin' this!!

Still into Hana-Kimi.. Mwahahaha, cross-dressing sounds kinda fun watching that show. XD!!

Well, I've totally gotten myself into the Hana-Kimi Taiwanese Drama... ^^ Wu Zun (the guy who plays the Sano equivalent) and Tang Zhi Ping (the guy who plays the Umeda equivalent) are frickin' hot. I'll spend my time after school watching that stuff for now... ^^

And I hope someone will be honest enough to return my pencil case before school ends... I had all my pencils and my best eraser in there. TT_TT I want my pencil case!!!! TT_TT

I HATE MATH.

Augh, again, I'm torn between trying out for the musical and doing Mock Trial because I wanna hang around my eighth grader/freshmen friends at the musical, but I want to help with the Mock Trial team next year too. (The juniors don't look like they can manage the team by themselves, and that's the majority if none of the freshmen next year join.) Augh. All the seniors are gone and they made up half the team. -_____-

I know that four seniors, one junior, and one sophomore (me) will join the team next year.
I can only hope that five of my fellow sophomores, two juniors, and one senior will join next year.

How the hell are we going to manage a team with that many people?

A Mock Trial Team consists of:
-At least one pre-trial lawyer
-At least three lawyers
-At least four witnesses
-At least one clerk (and one unofficial clerk, but the job should be done by one person.)
-At least one bailiff
-(optional) A courtroom artist
-(not sure if this is a job, but it's optional) A courtroom journalist

If you add all the things in the list that AREN'T optional, you'd need AT LEAST ten people on the mock trial team. Double that, (twenty minus one, you don't need two bailiffs, but there should be extra people for missing witnesses), and that's the amount of people you SHOULD have on the team.

To make what I said in the paragraph above clear, the truth is that in a trial there are two sides, right? Defense and Prosecution. Prosecution should have the four witnesses, three lawyers, one pretrial lawyer, and one (clerk or bailiff). So that makes ten if you include the unofficial timer on either side. You need the same amount of people for the Defense too. Hence, if you double the amount of people on the prosecution, about twenty. If a mock trial team consists of ten people, then each person on the mock trial team would have to do two jobs, one job for one side. You don't want to make one person do two jobs, (one on the Prosecution, one on the Defense) otherwise it will confuse them during a trial and end up making things much harder. So twenty members or more make up a real mock trial team.

WHY THE HELL DID I WASTE TWENTY MINUTES TYPING ALL THIS OUT?!

Not going to give any major spoilers unless peoples want me to, but I'll tell you all that the beginning is so... tragic.

There's a new song, called "Hoist the Colors." I NEED THESE LYRICS, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

My mind is breaking. If I don't go through with this surgery soon, I'm going to snap. I think I snapped on Wednesday night of last week when my dad made me out to be a stupid idiot. I ended up filling up three notebook pages of emo words and scribbles. Then I cried on it on accident and washed some of the marker/pen ink away.I think I'll have more emo pages. As long as my surgery's eating away at my head, I'll be having more emo episodes.

Funny how my drama friend notices how drastically my mood changes and some of my friends don't. Ah well... Ignorance is bliss.

I got through the English fairy tale and Computer powerpoint projects, they went off without a hitch.

Well, I decided to take Algebra 2 over again in sophmore year instead of gong through the hassle of going through surgery and worrying about homework over the summer. Various reactions to this are:

Drama Friend: You can finish math right now? And not have it for the rest of your highschool life?
Me: Yeah, but my dad wants me to go through with--
Drama Friend: You know what, fuck your dad, okay? You're fucking lucky.

Choir Friend: You have to go through Algebra 2 again in sophmore year?
Me: I have surgery to do in the summer...
Choir Friend: Well that sucks.

Algebra 2 Friend: If you're getting out of summer school, I'll kill you.
Me: Sorry, kinda have to.
Algebra 2 Friend: -_________-'l'

Possibly one of the only refreshing times I could have has been taken away. *sigh* Thomas denied the plan of going to the "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" premiere on Thursday that we had been planning for like, a month just because I insulted Jack Bauer. Not that I don't like 24 or anything. It interests me, but I never get around to watching it, and the beeping sounds piss me off. Especially that one time when the virus bomb thing went poof in the teachers' fridge at the climax of season 2/season 3.

The end of my freshman year comes. Nuu...

SPOILERS TO HEROES SEASON FINALE AHEAD DON'T READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON WATCHING THE HEROES SEASON FINALE.

Okay, the season finale to Heroes sucked ass.

Why'd it suck? These reasons:
-All the action wasn't until after the very last commercial break, they should have had a two-part finale.
-The Petrelli brothers probably didn't survive their little trip to space (and I don't think Milo Ventimiglia and Adrian Pasdar were signed for the 2nd season either, so that's also another reason to believe they didn't).
-Ando was finally ditched by Hiro, and chances are Hiro's gonna miss having the dorky sidekick with him.
-Parkman was seriously injured by the end of it (He shot at Sylar four times and Sylar sent the bullets back at him) and his fate is unknown.
-Nobody cared at what happened to Hiro after he teleported away.
-Sylar almost killed Peter, that bastard!!
-Sylar survived. HE F***ING survived, damn it!! After being run through by Hiro's sword, he still survived!! TELL ME HOW THAT HAPPENS!! I don't care if he is someone who cuts people's heads open and takes power after power, but he doesn't have the ability to HEAL, and he SHOULD. HAVE. DIED. (I swear, I was okay with Peter and Nathan getting fried in a nuclear explosion, because it was worth seeing Sylar die before they did. And then I find out he's alive, and I start screaming in my room at the top of my lungs, the whole death scene fireworks thing with Peter and Nathan had no meaning anymore! AUGH!!)
-With Peter possibly not being in Heroes anymore, I really don't like Heroes as much as I did before. (First they killed Isaac, then they jack up Parkman pretty bad, then they possibly kill Peter; WHO'S NEXT, ANDO AND HIRO?!)
-The way Nathan hugged/carried Peter was like he was trying to hold a baby, and it looked kinda gay.
-Mohinder looked really stupid looking up at the nuclear explosion with while examining Parkman (who was seriously injured with eyes half-open and all).

But it was okay because:
-The kids with powers (Molly and Micah) were finally part of the action, even if it was just a little.
-Claire jumping out of a window, landing splatish on the ground, then walking away as if nothing happens was cool.
-Sylar and Peter's opening conversation:
"Haven't I killed you before?"
"Didn't take."
It reminds me of what Jessica/Niki said to Parkman an episode ago...
"Didn't I throw you out a window...?"
It's funny, but kinda getting old...
-Niki beating up Sylar with a parking meter seemed pretty random because I don't remember him doing anything to her, but nevertheless, it was fun to watch... and I always thought parking meters were much heavier.
-At least Nathan's power finally became useful.... ]]> ~DarkAngelDani http://DarkAngelDani.deviantart.com/journal/12969068/ http://DarkAngelDani.deviantart.com/journal/12969068/ Tue, 15 May 2007 18:08:07 PDT
It has been confirmed: I need surgery because of my f***ing back condition. I'm looking at a 5-7 hour surgery with a recovery time of four to six weeks.

I'm looking at:
-losing my summer job
-missing about a week of summer school and real school even if I time my surgery and recovery right
-losing one of the few summers I have left as a crazy immature teenager with no real significance in the world yet
-missing the Anime Expo, my adoptive brother's (Wrath's) birthday party, and my traditional week or two at Jen's house
-losing any chance of a real vacation
-losing a chanc to get on Mr. Doporto's good side (I don't think he likes me)
-A s***load of extra homework to do in bed... -______-+
-no videogames/real TV during recovery
-missing the few best events at the beginning of the year (including the opportunity to attack my incoming freshmen friends)
-possibly losing the chance to go to Georgia again for the premiere of the documentary I helped out with
-and most of all, losing all of my Tae Kwon Do. EVERYTHING... The surgery is going to decrease my flexibility. Big time.

Hmm... Which list is worse out of these two? (the one above and below this note)

Right now, I have:
-a slideshow to do for my computers final. Has to be ten slides and about my WHOLE life... or a vacation I took with my family. Both topics are way too hard... TT_TT
-to write a 4 page fairy tale. All my ideas include my OC, Kaye and some violence, so I can't do any of them... (My teacher says so... That beetch)
-to design the CD and CD case cover for the CD the choir and I are recording
-a choir final tomorrow (I have to sing my part for Prayer of St. Francis and Bohemian Rhapsody alone... Fl_l(l -to make my decision now about trying out for the morning announcements in the fall
-to decide if I'm taking Pre-Cal next year or Algebra 2
-to remember to watch the Heroes episodes... I'm missing out on a good show
-to remember to DRAW!! The few drawing skills I have are going away cause I don't practice

My life... sucks.

High School ish being a beeitch.

Finals approach me... and I'm not confident, AT ALL about me Algebra 2 exam... I have to raise up my Computer and Religion grades too... Easy enough, so I'm not worried. Heheh... All the freshman classes at my school are so easy. ^^ I took the tests for all the honors classes next year, ('cept spanish, I'd like that to stay easy) and I realize that maybe it wasn't such a good idea cause all the teachers give the Honors/AP classes so much more hell than College Prep/General. Ah, well... At least it means I'll be in more classes with Wrath and Gluttony, I guess that's a plus.

Wrath, Gluttony, and I had to do a rap for english class. -___- I screwed up my part pretty badly, but I got a lot of laughs...

I'm glad to say I'm getting my first summer job... The principal of the elementary school Wrath, Gluttony, and I came from offered us jobs to teach the decathlon students in the summer... for the Decathlon in March. I like the idea; the kids will probably be much more prepared. Problem is, the current candidates for the decathlon team... don't show so much promise as the kids this year. >< I hope they'll be easier to teach.

*sigh* Summer school, and a summer job stuffing logic into kids' heads... and I only have a two-week summer... The choir (including myself) tried to talk the assistant principal into making the vacation longer due to summer school taking away a month and a half from our two month vacation. He said that "the seniors going to a good college sacrificed their summers in summer school, and UCLA/NYU would be much more impressed with students who spent their time preparing themselves in summer school, blah blah blah..."

What a load of bullshit... Last year, I only had three weeks of vacation, and it's down to TWO?! The life of a teenager sucks ASS!! That means I'm only spending ONE FREAKIN WEEK instead of my usual TWO FREAKIN WEEKS at my cousin's house.

I hope the Tsubasa episodes are still continuing in Japan. They're dubbing Tsubasa Chronicle right now, and the VAs they chose were pretty okay... I have to wonder what Vic Mignogna (Edward Elric from FMA) is going to do with Fay's voice... I'm kinda hoping he's not going to do what he did with Ikkaku in Bleach, it still had some of the childish Edward-tone mixed in... I'll still love him as a VA either way though.

To start things off for my first journal entry, my name is Dani. To my friends, I'm called Envy, because my friends and I are called the 'Seven Sins' at my school. Useless fact, but I don't give a sheeee-it. I consider my friends my family. My family and psychol-bob, my cousin, know me as Dani so that is the name you will know me by. OKAY, PUNK?!

*cough*

I got my report card two days ago on my birthday and I dropped on five subjects. I got my graduation pictures back today and I looked like shit. I got two scrapes on my knees and my hand and shoulder are sore because I tripped and fell on some 'safety cones'. Before that, my bitch of a brother Gluttony stapled my middle finger. Now I can't flip people off. Damnit my life is shit. ]]> ~DarkAngelDani
