This year promises to be a tough one with the amount of AP's I decided to do too (some have referred to it as academic suicide ). Anyway, i'm also excited because my transmission is coming in in a week, which is awesome.
That's it for now, ttfn!.

And now here I sit, with a load of homework which I was supposed to do this past month, and school starting on Tuesday. Life has just been a joy for me.
On a happier note my car is coming along. Basically, at this point I'm building a new car, everything that can go wrong does . Oh well, thanks for putting up with this journal entry, hopefully there will be more soon, along with art.

First and foremost, I'm not moving. Which is good in my opinion, but the reason is bad. Basically my dad and grandma were diagnosed with cancer within two days of each other. My dad's was caught early, it was prostate cancer, he got it removed using robotic surgery a week ago. Unfortunately my grandma was not so lucky, she has stage 4 breast cancer (stage 4 is the worst), but she should stick around for a couple more years, hopefully. So basically, these past couple of weeks have been exponentially shitty. Oh and to top it all off, my grandma is my dad's mom, and is an Ashkenazi Jew which means that she could (and probably does) have a brca2 mutation, which is a mutation of a gene which causes breast cancer and prostate cancer, oh and it's a dominant gene. So..... if you put it all together, I have a 1/2 chance that I'm going to get prostate cancer later in life, if that is what's wrong, which is pretty likely considering the fact that her father had prostate cancer too.
So that's what's going on in my life, but on a happier note this Friday is my 14 month anniversary with my fantastic girlfriend, she's so wonderful, she has stuck by me through everything. So, now I'm taking her to a Michael Buble concert this Saturday and she's gonna love it. I also just finished the 3rd quarter strong in my school and am rapidly moving on into the 4th, yay. I also have helped start a band as of now called The Thin Red Line of Heroes (its a little odd i know), but it'll be super cool. I'm also hoping to put more art up soon, until then..... who knows.

Unfortunately her parents have been jumping all over us about displaying affection for each other... Awkward So yeah, life is ok i guess, sorry for not putting up many pictures, i haven't had the time or energy to post anything of late, though i will soon, i promise. Oh and i had to take down my 55 gallon marine fish tank because it's "hard to move" , total bummer. However i still have a 6 gallon one that i condensed most of my stuff into so i think i'll take pictures of that, awesome . On an interesting side note i just found a cheap 80 year old camera at my recently deceased great aunts house that was crappy even back in the day, for any of you photography nerds it's a kodak pony 828 . Also, weird shit keeps on happening around my family for whatever reason and i have no idea why. That recently deceased great aunt's person she the bottom apartment in her house to just died, and my aunt found her neighbor who had been lying in her house for two days due to a stroke (she's still alive, but the entire right side of her body is paralyzed). Basically don't come near me because i have bad mojo at the moment . Anyway, that's pretty much it, besides the fact that my house is in shambles from us getting ready to move, , oh well, life goes on.
Peace out,
WAM
P.S. i wasn't serious about the mojo thing
P.P.S. the mood is just because that guy is coughing and i have my annual post nasal drip hacking cough returning

I'm finally finished, done with my exams (incessant slightly crazed mumbling) and out for the year!! So summer is here, and my girlfriend is still in school!! I can never win ! So yeah... the wonderful, fantastic places i get to go include upstate New York (Mohonk) to be exact, the nantahala (sp?) river which has good fishing, and west palm beach in florida with my grandparents (figures doesn't it?). So yeah, i get to go there and i have a gold pass to KI, so i'm psyched. Rode firehawk today too. The camera is at the first dip after they tow you up the hill, don't make the same mistake i did after waiting for two hours in line, only to get a ridiculous expression on my face when the camera went off (honestly i looked like i was retarded, or had down syndrome, or both). Yeah, so i can honestly say that i have ridden all of the rides at KI, even the ones that they took away, like the flying eagles (i loved those, i was a beast, even got one turned completely around so i was flying backward once), yeah those were my favorites. Also, i have just recently seen Pirates 3 and am truly depressed with Will's predicament, poor guy, my heart goes out to him (no pun intended) (actually, pun intended). That's pretty much it, as always since my girlfriend is the only one who reads these all the way through, I love you and i hope this finds you in good spirits, as opposed to cheap spirits, that stuff tastes nasty. lol, no really i hope your day is going well,
see you space cowboy (yes i've fallen victim to it ),
WAM
Oh by the way, i got back into wind ensemble! Woot!

Shout out: one of my buddies is a up and coming graphic designer, and like an uber genius, give his gallery a look: [link] enjoy , and no matter how much i tease him, he actually is straight, so ignore me if i start teasing him about gayness, it's an inside joke (you know, like inside the closet )

But for now the teachers see this time as time to cram in every little frickin thing they can, namely homework. This is kinda bad, especially when you have tennis also. So basically my day as well as my brain is packed with shit. I can't wait till the weekend though, gonna see my gf and most likely, not play in a tournament over the weekend, although i can be hopeful, a little optimism never hurt anyone.
Sorry this entry is so short, but i gotta go do a history report, then talk to my gf (smug smile)... Yeah, that's pretty much it.

P.S. I am going on spring break starting on thursday night when me and the wind ensemble are going by bus up to New York to play in Carnegie Hall. Then we are getting back on monday around midnight and I am flying out to Phoenix , Arizona to meet my family at about 9 the next morning. And we are getting back on Saturday around 7. So yeah, major jet lag.
P.P.S. Guys if you ever make it to the corner of Grinn and Barrit good luck! (you'll need it)

]]> ~WAM101490 http://WAM101490.deviantart.com/journal/12259916/ http://WAM101490.deviantart.com/journal/12259916/ Tue, 20 Mar 2007 15:05:49 PDT On Feb. 16 I was walking to the bus at approximately 2:40pm (which is kinda late so there weren't many other ppl there) and some kid walks up to me and says "got any cash, where's the cash nigga?" I told him that I had no money (cause i am a broke highschool student) and kept walking. He pointed to my pocket and asked what was in it (there was a bulge from the headphones i was carrying) and I told him that that was my headphones. So, he walks behind me and after a second I turned around to find him looking at my ass (presumably to see if I had a wallet). When I turned around he got in my face and said something else, then he pushed me off the sidewalk into the snow (however, I didn't fall over) and then punched me in the face. He then ran away into the school.
When I got onto the bus I told my friends what happened and one of my friends (who had this happen to him also) called his dad who was pissed and called the school. The school caught him and he was arrested. A week or two pass, for the legal system to work things out, with him in 2020 (that's juvi). Then I went to the federal building where we were going to have his trial, and the lawyers get a continuance (sp?) on the case because they wanted to question all the wittnesses. Another week or two pass (he is now under house arrest).
The trial was today March 20. He peaded not guilty to the charges, even though there were written testimonies from everyone, even the people who he asked to come with him to "beat on some kids". So, we went to trial, where about 8 people testified against him, including myself. His attorney wasn't very good (and arrived an hour late, the judge was pissed) so it went realitively quickly. In the end the judge concluded that "the evidence was the most thorough he had ever seen and had no other choice but find him guilty on three counts of F2 felony (because he had done it to two other people besides me)". The verdict couldn't have been worse unless he had killed us, because a F1 felony is murder. So now he is in 2020 for two more weeks and going to have a probation officer untill deemed suitable for society. He is about to be expelled from my school and I will never see him again. The moral of this story is, don't punch out kids who's friends have also been punched by you.
So, after that I got $6 for bringing my subpoena, for parking and lunch, then I went to wild ginger and had sushi with my friends who were wittnesses and victims. So basically I got to not go to school for the day, and eat sushi, and I got six bucks. So that was my day, woot! (sarcasm)
I apologise for the journal before this one, and am seriously still shaking my head at myself! So have fun and remember kids don't punch people, cause it's not good for your permanet record.
That's all folks,
WAM

Rules: The 1st player of this "game" starts with the topic "6 Weird Habits/Things About Yourself" and people who get tagged need to write a journal about their 6 Weird Habits/Things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. I have an obsession with all things living, a.k.a. i have a 55 gallon marine fish tank, I keep a garden outside and my room alone has 6 plants (that I know about) growing in it.

2. I have the strange ability to piss the hell out of my teachers, but still have them like me.

3. I was in a body cast when i was a couple months old because I rolled off a changing table, and I contracted scarlet fever when i was in the seventh grade.

4. My eyes are green and orange. I was thinking about taking a pic, what do you think?

5. I listen to oldies and can't get enough of Billy Joel!

6. When I get old enough I will never settle down in one place (unless it is for the one I love), being an army brat for most of my life, I have never lived in the same place for more than 3 years (I've actually moves seven times, so living here for 5 years is a little weird). Mabey I'll work for P&G and get moved all over the world. Basically, what this all boils down to is that: it is hard for me to "put down roots" in any one spot.

I now tag:
~Toxic-Harmony
~Neo2009
~aHamSandwich
~DrCheatLHopplint
=HootyMB
~Panda92

So basically i have been living dayquill and guzzeling tea like it's going out of style. For the record, post nasal drip is not a sickness, it is just mucus that has dripped down my throat and makes it really sore, basically it sucks!! I also never get sick! That is the crazy thing, why of all times now? The last time i actually got sick was when i had scarlet fever a couple of years ago. And on top of all that my girlfriend got sick and i won't be going out with her this evening, instead i will be writitng a history report! So as you can see my day looks to be great! I am off to go write my report and drink more tea.
See ya,

P.S. Sorry guys, i am not usually like this, just for the record
