                <description><![CDATA[ *clings to house* i am never EVER going  to spend a week in "Sack-a-Tomatoes  Land" (sacramento) ever again. nevah  evah!!!!<br />
<br />
I was forced to spend 5 days with my  overly protective aunt (who freaks out  when someone on the telly says the word  ass) and her high maitenance  daughter...and the husband, but i don't  have anything against him.<br />
<br />
HONESTLY!!! their daughter screams at  every thing, and probably has some kind  of voice modulation disorder cause she  takes it upon herself to scream random  words.<br />
<br />
you know what else i hated? not having  "alone time". i'm sorry, but i do not  enjoy being bombarded by people 24/7. i  enjoy sitting in a room, by myself. BUT  THEY WOULDN'T GET OUT OF MY FACE. they  kept trying to talk to me and ask me  questions so after a while i was just  forced to fuse my headphones to my ears  so that they knew that shouldn't talk,  CAUSE I COULDN"T HEAR THEM <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mwahaha.gif" width="29" height="15" alt=":evillaugh:" title="EVIL Laughter!" /><br />
<br />
i also hate how relatives want you to  keep eating or something. i try to tell  them "no thanks, already ate, not  hungry" but they just keep on adking  you again and again what you want to  eat and list every singly item in their  fricken fridge!!!<br />
<br />
*takes deep breath*<br />
<br />
but it's all ok now, cause i'm home. ]]></description>

*laughs like a loon and does a rather  amusing victory dance*<br />
<br />
I FOUND A SWIMSUIT THAT I ACTUALLY  LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />
it's a flippin miracle <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/D.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> D<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
<br />
yeah, on saturday i went shopping for a  swimsuit (seeing as i needed a new one  for nest week, i'll explain later) and  went to our local mervyns. Well, i  spent a LONG time searching and<br />
had a few problems<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletred.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" title="Bullet; Red" /> most of them didn't fit<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletred.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" title="Bullet; Red" /> scratch that, none of them fit  properly<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/bulletred.gif" width="10" height="10" alt=":bulletred:" title="Bullet; Red" /> all of them mad me look...ugh!!!!!<br />
so then i went home feeling very upset  and fustrated, only to find that i had  left my sister in the dept. store (she  was with dad, but he left to go home  and do domething or other and i was not  aware of this lil ole factoid). i then  lied on the couch and slept into  shopper's depression (don't know if  guys get this too, but it happens when  you search and search and nothing looks  good on you so you just wasted an hour  or 2 trying on stupid clothes...hell,  don't even know if other girls get it,  but i sure as hell do). i felt very  exhaisted and could not be cheered till  i crammed sugar into my sistem and  danced around insanely for a while.<br />
<br />
but then on sunday...I went to  sportsmart and found one that actually  fit and looked good!!!!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
so, yes...the happy.<br />
something else that i wanted to write  about, but have forgotten for now.<br />
late at night, night-night.<br />
hehe, im making less and less sense as  i type more and more wroekksds *words ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ went to the movie today and saw  anchorman, a very funy Will Ferrell  flick that I adored. i loved how at the  end SPOILER WARNING they said that the  guy with the iq of 48 went on to become  one of the top advisors in the bush  administration. hollywood is holding no  puches.<br />
the whole time i was asking group  questions like "if you could  have  starred in any movie, what would it  be?" which led to the would you rather  questions. my favorite one was:<br />
<br />
<strong>Would you rather...</strong><br />

it was very funny, and now we have a  whole new batch of inside jokes  revolving around clapping, flushing  toilets and sneezing<br />
we had ice cream for lunch and it was  insanely delicious ^_^ while we were  there we talked about tv and about the  show "missing persons" and how they  always play one song throughout the  whole show. the one i saw last night  kept playing "mad world".<br />
Much fun when we all did the time warp  together.<br />
Was <strong> hell </strong> of offended though when a  guard came into the theater and checked  the tickets of me and my 4 friend, and  then most of the other teens in the  theater. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" /> screw you and your age-ism!!!<br />

now that i think about it, we were  asked for cash by 3 people today...<br />
<br />
Mom was chopping onions today, and i  hope they are whats causing me to start  tearing up all the time. I've been  forced to do many rapid blink sessions  to avoid having drops rolling down my  cheeks. hehe, too appropriate...<br />
And I find it kinda funny<br />
I find it kinda sad<br />
The dreams in which I'm dying are the  best I've ever had<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Eh, feel like list all of the very  brilliant things that I've done.  Hopefully (if nothing else), this will  give all of you a good laugh.<br />
<br />
-One time, I went to the microwave to  heat up some soup, and I put the soup  in but instead of putting in the time  to cook it for I started putting in my  phone number.<br />
<br />
-Was walking back to school from the  bowling alley with my friends and I was  walking backwards. I twirled around to  face forward and I slammed straight  into a pole. The pole shook and made  that clanging noise that it does in  cartoons.<br />
<br />
-I got to summer camp only to realize  that I wasn't wearing any shoes.<br />
<br />
-I wanted to go on the internet and was  chatting up my friend on the phone. At  my house you can't talk on the phone  and go on the net at the same time. I  tried to log on but it wouldn't let me,  so I called out "Dad, are you on the  phone?". Then my friend said to me,  "Hannah, you do realize that you're  still talking to me."<br />
<br />
-I had the chair in the car leaning all  the way back as we pulled into the  parking lot. The car next to us pulled  forward, but I didn't realize that and  thought that the car was rolling  backwards.<br />
<br />
Hmm, can't think of anymore right now.  Might have to update this at a later  date. Anyone out there got really  Jenious things that they've done and  want to contribute them? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hazards that my dad has classified my  room as this weekend:<br />
<br />
- A biological hazard<br />
<br />
- A physical hazard<br />
<br />
- A chemical hazard<br />
<br />
- A mental hazard<br />
<br />
Even I have to admit, it was starting  to resemble the final scenes of Die  Hard, so I spent some of Sunday making  it so that you could walk through it  without breaking something or  puncturing your foot. Well, all of  Sunday that I wasn't lying on the  couch. Wanna know why I was so insanely  tired?<br />
<br />
Because I was up for most of last night  fighting cancer. Huzzah!!!<br />
<br />
 I participated in this walkathon for  the American Cancer Society (was in a  team with one of my best gal pals). I  arrived there at 5:20 (at this High  School, thats where it took place) and  hunted down her tent, it was this cool  Mid-evil-ish-one and it was purple and  yellow and reminded me of Gryfindor  colors. Once I got there we played  cards until 7 and then my friend and I  walked on the track for an hour.  Durring that quickly passing hour we  mocked those stupid enough to do  kareoke (the guy that did behemeon  rhapsody made me twitch). Then we  played cards and it was SO cool, cause  we decided to go to the baseball  diamond and we were walking around and  singing "I think we're alone now" and  then out of nowhere we saw this  shooting star!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was so  cool, and I got to make a wish (but I  can't tell you what it was otherwise it  might not come true).<br />
<br />
    Then we go to watch this ceremony  where these people sang and this one  lady played a purple electric acoustic  guitar and it was so beautiful and I  had desperately wanted to run up to the  stage and grab it and run away but that  wouldn't have been very nice and I'm  getting kinda side tracked here, but  you should have seen it! Anyways, then  my friend and I played cards until  12:30 and then we went to sleep after  1:00. Then I woke up at 4:50 cause it  was my turn to run again so I slipped  into sweat pants and three shirts, and  wrapped a blanket around my shoulders  and my bestest friend and I started  walking around the track for another  hour. I needed all of those layers  because the wind at this high school's  track is so strong and in the morning  it's pretty chilly. Anyways, after an  hour we snuck back into the tent  (cleverly walking around her brother  and his two friends) stole a basket of  strawberries and 3 bannanas, watched  the sun rise, went back into the tent  and slept, had oatmeal for breakfast  (with lots o' sugar).<br />
<br />
Then we packed up the stuff, walked  some more, and I went home to get some  sleep. Mmmm, good sleep. Sleep and  shower too, cause it was very very  dusty, great way to break in my shoes  though ^_^.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yes! I am finally able to submit a  journal onto here. It seems like every  single time that I have tried to log on  DA has been down for system maitenance.  Anyways...<br />
Got a shot in my arm...Hepatitis B or  something and got my teburculosis test  done on my arm (which is making me  return to the doctors office on Sunday  because we need to see how the test  turns out). I don't know if the lady  was being rough or something...but me  and my sister both got the same test  and my arm has had a purple circle on  it for the past two days. hmmm, maybe I  have teburculosis.<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shrug.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":shrug:" title="Shrug" /><br />
<br />
                         PRAISE MICHAEL  MOORE!<br />
I urge all of you to go and see  Farenheit 9/11. It is a fantastically  well done movie that makes you want to  kill George Bush. Moore is a flippin'  genius!!!!!!!!!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Eh, figures.<br />
First weekend out of school and I get  sick. Funky throat and clogged up  sinuses. I've got 2 theories:<br />
1) In the hour that I spent in La  Pinata sitting next to Gabe he got me  sick.<br />
2) The horrible stress of finals week  culminated with a 5 day lack of sleep  leaving me very susceptible to evil  summer colds.<br />
3) The universe decided to screw with  me. First week of freedom and I can't  even enjoy it. grr <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/steaming.gif" width="15" height="24" alt=":steaming:" title="Steaming Mad!" /><br />
<br />
Hoping that I'll get better, somehow by  tomorrow...or at least by saturday  cause then I'll be having another voice  lesson. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hehe, had to put that as my title. Was  watching an edited version of some  movie (possibly Scream 2) and of the  characters said "What the f-hell?!?".<br />
Yeah, bad day. Dad woke me up at 6:15  because my sister needed to get to  school to get her year book and in the  end I was ready before him to leave so  I coulda slept in more. ReaLLY needed  that sleep too cause today was the  hardest finals day of all...<br />
Seriously worried about how I did. Took  my Geometry one first, did I mention  that 20% of my semester grade.  Stupidness if you ask me. At the end of  the test she told us tha the best score  in the period before us was an 87 or 83  (dont remember which). That is just  badness. There were things on that test  that she had never even taught us, I  swear it!<br />
Then came english. Dear lord...we were  given 2 hours. First we had a 100  question vocab scantron. Then we had  another 100 question scantron, but this  was one benchmarks, fallacies, and  Shakespearian times. HEhe, then we had  to write a essay on a religious poem  about this guy wanting to reach Nirvana <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/n/nirvana.gif" width="18" height="18" alt=":nirvana:" title="Smells Like Teen Spirit" /> . Now seems like a good time to say,  once again, that we were only given 2  hours. Thats 20 minutes for one  scantron. 15 minutes for the next. 30  minutes of starring at the poem and  thinking wtf?!? Leaving 55 minutes to  churn out 4 paragraphs, which I barely  even managed. I calculated it out. Need  to get straight Bs on all 3 of those.<br />
Tomorrow woulnt be much better either.  Need to memorize lotsa historical  facts, plus the placement of the  countries in Africa, Europe, Latin  America, and Pacific Asia.   <br />

Stupid Daniel cancelled lessons twice  in a row. Thats 2 days that I've had to  carry my guitar around for nothing,  except having it played by strangers  :stufu:. That's it! Need to find me a  new teacher, cause if he is going to  charge me then he has to be consistent. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" />  Honestly!!!!<br />
Anyways, yeah...in Spanish, that's 2  finals done, 4 to go. An evil 4 too. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> 4  days of school left too~<br />

so I ran faster<br />
but it caught me here<br />
yes my loyalties turned<br />
like my ankle<br />
in the seventh grade<br />
running after Billy<br />
running after the rain<br />
<br />
<em>these precious things<br />
Let them bleed<br />
Let them wash away<br />
these precious things let them break<br />
their hold on me</em><br />
<br />
he said you're really an ugly girl<br />
but I like the way you play<br />
and I died<br />
but I thanked him<br />
can you beleive that<br />
sick. holding on to his picture<br />
dressing up every day<br />
I wanna smash the faces of those  beautiful Boys<br />
those christian boys<br />
so you can make me c*m<br />
that doesn't make you Jesus<br />
<br />
<em>these precious things<br />
Let them bleed<br />
Let them wash away<br />
these precious things let them break<br />
their hold on me</em><br />
<br />
I remember yes<br />
in my peach party dress<br />
no one dared<br />
no one cared<br />
to tell me where those pretty girls are<br />
those demigods<br />
with their Nine-Inch nails<br />
and little facist panties<br />
tucked inside the heat<br />
of every nice girl<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow, long time since I updated my  journal. You can all blame those damn  projects <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/shakefist.gif" width="24" height="18" alt=":shakefist:" title="CURSE YOU!" />. Yeah, was forced to write 4  essays last week and for 3 days I was  running on 6 and 1/2 hours sleep (which  is practically unbearable for me, and  yes, I do know a lotta people get by on  less). Yesterday was all cool cause I  got my first facial ($36) and it was  just heaven ^_^...<br />
Almost fell asleep, would have except  at the end she put something on my face  and said "this is going to tingle".  Turns out that tingle is new age babble  for sting-like-a-bitch, but oh well.  Then I went home feeling all good and  tired (besides the tingle) and listened  to this Tori Amos cd that my mom had  rented from the library. Let me just  say that she is AMAZING.<br />
Yeah, then I woke up at 8-ish this  morning and went to talk to this lady  about singing lessons. and....NOW I'M  GONNA GET LESSONS! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/sing.gif" width="29" height="20" alt=":sing:" title="Singing" /> ScOrE^_^<br />
<br />
back to reading the Sailormoon  Millennia Trilogy and listening to  Tori. have this photo of me that I plan  on posting...then you'll all know what  I look like. Hehe, please don't stalk  me. Or, if you must, don't do me any  bodily harm:suspicious: ]]></description>

Hehe, you can thank <a href="http://neomonk.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/default.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="neomonk" title="neomonk" /></a> for inspiring this  rant <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/g/glomp.gif" width="47" height="20" alt=":glomp:" title="Glomp!" />...<br />
*deep breath in*<br />
Ok, why in the heck do teachers think  that at the end of year it would be  simply fabulous to give us all group  projects?!? Don't they realize that  they all pile up and we turn into  freakish zombie teens? And also,  NeWsFlAsH, group projects suck. Wanna  know why?!? Because one person always  gets stuck with more work than the  other people, and then that person grow  to not like the other people in their  group as much. Guess who ussually gets  stuck with the work in my group?  ME!!!!! And I'm getting so fed up with  these stupid group things, why can't we  just have individual work.<br />
Not that that would help much though,  cause all teachers still assign all the  projects for the week before finals.  Don't they realize that this is the  time that we all need desperately to be  studying? I mean, come on...after years  of teaching they must get  it................<br />
Next week is all hells bells for me:<br />
<strong>Monday:</strong>Memorial day, will be spent  doing all of my history term paper that  I have procrastinated.<br />
<strong>Tuesday:</strong>Geometry project must be  finished. First round of Romeo and  Juliet auditions. Rough draft of  Merchant of Venice essay must be  completed.<br />
<strong>Wednesday</strong>Second round of Romeo and  Juliet auditions. Chemistry final done  (teacher wanted to do it early). Guitar  practice?...<br />
<strong>Thursday:</strong>Grand finale of Romeo and  Juliet auditions.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Life is bad...before I start writing  this I'm going to remind you that I am  not suicidal. Many of you know this and  if you dont then now you do. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/frown.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":(" title=":( (Sad)" />Probably  gonna think I'm in denial or  something...<br />
Ok, lets get ready to type (the summer  thing is, once again, going to be my  next entry):<br />
-Mom now wants to have custody of us  more often.<br />
-Mom has hired a lawyer.<br />
-Dad went to the hospital last night  because he was throwing up blood...  which explains why he did not call us  last night.<br />
-Dad is now out of hostpital, says he  will get treatment.<br />
<br />
Things that I am worried about:<br />
-Dad losing job.<br />
-Mom's proposal of different custody  arrangement driving Dad into more binge  drinking.<br />
-Ability of self to deal with all this  as finals week approaches.<br />
-Memorizing bits of Romeo and Juliet  for the auditions for Drama 3 (why yes,  this is petty in comparison. however  still conrtols large portion of my  mind).<br />
<br />
Ok, now time for the unrelated note:<br />
-My (younger) sister now has 13 Orlando  Bloom posters on the side of her bed.  My sister now has a "I love Orlando"  cap. My sister now has a "I love  Orlando" necklace. My sister now has a  T-shirt with Orlando Bloom's face on  it. It is now officially an epidemic.<br />
 And for the quote(s) of the day:<br />
Romeo: He jests at scars that never  felt a wound. <br />
Romeo: I am Fortune's Fool!<br />
Captain Prince: All are punished! <br />
Romeo: Do not tempt a desperate man! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Actually, that's a totally random  title. Just thought that it sounded  cool. Speaking of random...I have  decided to start carrying a jar around  school. Why you might ask? Because my  CD player was stolen (out of my locker  too, those jerk-offs!) about a week or  two ago and I figure that if this  school is going to rob me of my music,  then it will pay to have it replaced. A  peanut butter jar would work quite well  if I could find an empty one...<br />
School hasn't been too bad. I've been  procrastinating like crazy though, so  I've had a few zombie days where I feel  like just going to sleep on my desk.  Suppose I should work a bit more on  that, but I'll do that after I finish  this entry (I wrote one last night, but  my mom picked up the phone and the  whole thing was deleted). But, ya, my  two classes I need to focus on now are  History and English seeing as I've  pretty much sealed the rest of them.  Oh, and I'm getting better at guitar!  Still can't bar those damn F's, but  that can be worked on later. Got myself  a stress ball to help my grip get  better, but I left it at my dad's  house.<br />
<br />
Alas, for my school life is now far  exceeding that of my home one (besides  when I'm on DA, you guys are my  saviors). As you may remember from  previous entries, my dad is a (I'm  tempted to say raging) alcoholic. And  he's been drinking again. So I know  that I am staying with my mom till  Saturday (at least) and we'll see whats  going on then. Oh, probably mentioned  this at some point, or you got the  gist, but my parents are divorced (have  been for many years) so this is one of  those times that two houses is comming  in handy. Anyways, apparently my dad's  drinking is in violation of the  contract that my parents signed so that  means that I might be staying with my  mom a lot more often. Really pissed off  at my dad, so want to shout at him. If  nothing else, then just shout at him  for not trying to get treatment...but I  can't because I'm worried that that  would just upset him and then he would  drink even more. Teenagers are supposed  to be able to shout at their dads (or  at least show that they're angry), it's  practically a right of passage.<br />
Oh god! Sudden realization that when  I'm out of school I will be forced to  spend more time with him. Really need  that god machine now! What am I doing  this summer?...That will be my next  entry. For the finale I will end with  two quotes, a balance of depression and  irresistable urge to burst out  laughing:<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/sing.gif" width="29" height="20" alt=":sing:" title="Singing" />    And I don't want the world to see  me,<br />
            Cause I don't think that  they'd understand,<br />
            When everythings made to be  broken,<br />
            I just want you to know who  I am.<br />
<br />
The Weakest Link:<br />
HOSTESS:      "Are you a moron in a  cage?"<br />
CONTESTANT: "No.."<br />
Hostess:        "Moron on the loose,  moron on the loose." ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ The worst things in the world all have  to do with not feeling loved. In some  way or form, they revolve around that.  There are a lot of situations that can  bring you down really fast, some last  longer than others:<br />
-Waving to someone and they don't wave  back.<br />
-Saying hi to someone, and even thought  they see you they dont respond.<br />
-Telling the guy you like that you like  him, and he doesn't like you back.<br />
-Having your crush be dating someone  else.<br />
-Being shouted at by your parents.<br />
-Having someone you care for chose  another person over you.<br />

Had a few encounters with  him, all uneventful. Dealing with inner  conflict revolving around friend. I  know that it's all so stupid, and  petty. <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Let me say that I love the movie "Mean  Girls"!!! I mean, I love almost every  movie (Except Hellboy, that movie  sucked) cause popcorn and friends go  together well <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/popcorn.gif" width="25" height="35" alt=":popcorn:" title="Popcorn" />!!! Plus, the whole thing  was written by Tina Fey and she rocks  on Saturday Night Live. Plus, I prefer  her over Hilary Duff...so I figure that  going to see her movie is kinda going  against Duff in some  way..........AnYwAyS<br />
The movie turned out to be great. Very  acurate as well. It finally showed how  girls do not get back at people through  physical methods but rather turn their  enemies into emotional train wrecks.  Showed how everyone gossips & backstabs,  and gets gossiped about &  backstabbed.Overall it was a great  movie...and I really wanna buy the  soundtrack now.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ And it is now a tradition!!!<br />
This week we went to see "Mean Girls".  The intended attendees were suppose to  now reach the count of 9, but Jessica  and Carrie could no attend. The 3rd  absentee has a bit of a funnier tale.<br />
I asked Darrell if he was comming with  us to see the movie (since he could not  come last week) to which he replied "I  wish I could but SATs are tomorrow and  I have about 5 hours of practice left  to do". His excuse seemed extremely  genuine so I didn't give it much more  thought. However...after Duncan and I  stood in line for a slice of free pizza  for (45 minutes) we started walking to  meet up with the other 5 people and saw  Darrell hadn't even started walking  home<br />
Hannah: "Oh, thats some real tough  studying you have to do."<br />
Darrell: "No...I was just leaving."<br />
Duncan: "Oh, sure. Going home to play  video games."<br />
Darrell: "No, I really do need to  study."<br />
Hannah: "Psh. Just admit it, you don't  love us anymore."<br />
Darrell: "Thats not fare, I have SATs  tomorrow."<br />
Hannah: "Yeah, we understand. Goodbye  Darrell. We hardly knew thee."<br />
<br />
Then we met up with Danielle, Leia,  Kim, and Natasha. Then we took a bus.  Fun bus!!! Bus is fun!!! On the way  there Danielle chastized me for  watching almost every television show  in existence. Then we saw the movie... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Me and my friends took the bus to a  movie theater in a different city since  Alameda doesn't have one. I love the  bus. My friend was laughing at my the  whole time because I was grinning in  giddy joy since I hadn't taken the bus  in about...ever. The group was:<br />
Hannah (that's me!!!)<br />
Duncan<br />
Natasha<br />
Danielle<br />
 Since we arrived there early we had  time to get food, Danielle treated us  to a deep dish pizza. We then saw 13  going on 30. We got up durring the  credits and danced to "Love is a  Battlefield" and then ran for blocks  looking for a bus that would take us  back home while screaming the lyrics to  "Thriller". Then we got off at our  seperate stops and I bought a REALLY  sour cup of lemonade from these two 8  year old boys that were selling for  them 25 cents. It was one of the best  days in AGES!!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
We now have plans to do this every  available Friday. I love my friends. ]]></description>

I bought the 3 collections of  Blue Monday, a Breakfast Club & Moulin  Rouge poster, and a Blur CD.  Reallllllly like the CD. I wish that I  went to Berkely High. Me and my friends  have unanimously voted that the guys at  Berkely High look much better than the  guys at Alameda High. Oh well, that's  how life goes. At least our school is  smaller and we don't have to deal with  as many budget problems. I think..... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Forced to get up this morning at 8 by  my mom. She wanted to tell me that my  dad called and that he is sober and  that I'm going over to his house today.  That said I needed to get ready in 30  minutes. When I got here he was all  emotional and when he hugged me and my  sister he was kinda shaky. He asked me  if I would want to do the Disneyland  thing on Friday-Sunday but I said that  it wouldn't work cause I have things to  do over the weekend. He's really  desperate to make ammends. Thinking  back on a question they asked us at  Alateen "Have your parents ever tried  to buy you off?". I think that he's  trying to do that right now. Kinda odd,  but I'm in a state where I don't care  if I should feel guilty about taking  his money. Still angry.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ And since it is my srpinrg break I am  visiting all of my relatives in LA. I  love it here! For one thing, I always  sleep so much better (I blame the  smog). Another thing is that I have 3  cousins down here that are all the same  age as me and we are so similar that we  are more friends than family members.  Today we went to the Goodwill. I call  it the discount Goodwill because they  don't even bother to place the items in  seperate groups and just have  everything in a huge pile. However, I  didn't have the most perfect time  because this creepy guy came up to me  and asked me:<br />
"What's you're name" so I responded<br />
"I don't know you well enough" and then  he said<br />
"What?" so I asked him<br />
"What's your name?" and he replied<br />
"Dewey." (which is an odd name for a  creepy stalker person).<br />
So then I walked down the aisle to get  away, but he kept following me so I  walked over to my mom and then he left.<br />
However a few minutes later I went to  go check and see what new used books  had come in and he came back and was  seriously getting to close for comfort  so once again I strolled over to my two  cousins. A minute later this woman came  with these two guys who must have been  employes and said:<br />
"There! That's him!" and the two  employes made the guy leave.<br />
<br />
So goes my first day of Spring Break ^_^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ After the splurging I went to the  library and checked out Pretty in Pink  and "How to play Guitar". Then I went  home and tried to learn the guitar. I  now know the notes B, C, D, E, F, and  G. I also have my nails all clipped  down on my left hand and my left  pointer finger is sore from 40 minutes  of practice. Hopefully I will get a  callus there soon and then it will be  easier and I'll learn how to play the  guitar really well and then the singing  lessons will work wonders and I'll be  in the talent show and my guy will fall  madly in love with me  and we'll follow  a rainbow and find a pot of gold and  it'll start raining goldfish...<br />
<br />
Anyways, then my mom forced me and my  sister to attend a Alateen meeting. It  actually wasn't that bad. I realize  that (as much as this bites) I can't  really do that much to stop my dad's  drinking if he doesn't want to stop. I  think that the only reason that I'll go  back is for the company. I am quite  serious when I say that all of those  people are just as insane and random as  me, they even read the comics that I do  (Squee, Lenore, and Blue Monday). Plus,  when I attend four meetings I get a  nickname. It was kinda odd though, I  noticed that durring the entire meeting  everyone was more avoiding the actual  issues with sarcasm and randomness,  whatever helps someone to cope. OH! So  interesting, I met my guy friend's  younger sister at the meeting. He never  told me his dad was an alcoholic...then  again I never told him that my dad was.  Maybe I can convince him to come to a  meeting. If nothing else, I will have  someone my own age there.<br />
<br />
So went Tuesday, after that I spent the  rest of the night watching That 70's  Show, Daria, and making fanart based on  the characters from Blue Monday. ]]></description>

~Yet another journal (which makes 3  unused ones) at Happy Trails. This one  was a Emily jounal. <br />
~After that I went to the comic book  store to see if I could find a new  strip to get hooked on, and discovered  Blue Monday. Seriously hilarious, I  could only buy the first two but I plan  on getting some more when I find a  store that has the 3rd and 4th Issue.<br />
~Went to Axis and speacial ordered a  Yellowcard CD. I can pick it up next  Tueday. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/boogie.gif" width="25" height="25" alt=":boogie:" title="Boogie!" /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Also known as Tuesday. *sigh...*<br />
   Today wasn't any better than  Yesterday. Stayed up with my friend  till about two AM. That combined with  staying up till 1:30 last night led to  a great deal of sleeping in (till about  11). After that my mom told me that my  dad had called. Called him back, told  him that we could go to his house a few  days early, he said that he needed me  today. Honestly! He tells me that I  shouldn't have to deal with all of this  and then he tells me that he needs me  today. Anyways, I handed the phone over  to my mom so that she could discuss it  with him (did I ever mention that my  parents are divorced?). She said it  sounded like a fine idea if he was  sober. Can you guess if he was? Well,  he wasn't. That said, it became real  apparent that I was spending at least  one more day at my mom's house.<br />
   After that Kim and I walked up and  down Park Street, a street that has any  shop you could want to find (even a  creamatory). I ended up buying...<br />
<br />
Stay tuned to find out ^_^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Love the originality of my title.  Anyways, Day 3 totally ruined the  remainder of my spring break. Lemme  explain.<br />
   My dad is an alcoholic. It was  planned than today we would all go to  Disneyland (meaning my sister, dad, and  me). However, I called him last night  and could TOTALLY tell that he had been  drinking. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/pissedoff.gif" width="40" height="20" alt=":pissedoff:" title="I am PISSED OFF!" /> Now, the distance between  Alameda and LA is about a 6 hour drive  (depending on traffic) so I knew that  he couldn't drive that far. So, I had  to call him back up and talk to him for  about half an hour until it got through  to him that he really COULD NOT drive  here. <br />
   After that I was in a good ole fit  of rage and seriously wanted to smash  things because he should know by now  that he CANT DRINK!!! Instead of going  ballistic I just took an extremely cold  shower until I swore my fingers were  turning blue. All and all not the best  time. Instead of Disneyland my mom  drove us back to Alameda with her and I  spent all of last night with my friend  Kim introducing her to the Brat Pack.  Actually, that was the good thing about  not having to go to Disneyland. BUT  STILL.<br />
   So now I am insanely worried because  whaty he's doing is the exact same  level as using drugs becuase he cant  stop and I don't klnow what to do  anymore becuase he just keeps doing  this again and again!!! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Could also be known as Easter Sunday.  Today was very less eventful. I didn't  have any crazed stalker people come up  to me. In fact, I have spent the entire  day on this site (more or less) and it  has come to my attention that I  desperately need photoshop. Wonder how  much it costs...<br />
Anyways, one eventful thing did happen  today. I saw Sixteen Candles for the  first time ever!!! Throughout the whole  movie I found myself totally relating  to Molly Ringwalds crisis (being that  she is in love with a guy that already  has a girlfriend). I was just thinking:<br />
 'Wow. She's lusting after a guy who is  already dating someone and so am I.  She's a sophmore and so am I. She is a  redhead and so am I. The guy that she  is lusting after is a Senior and my  crush is a Junior.'<br />
     Granted I do this for every movie  I see but this one wasn't as great of a  stretch as others. One of the huge  differences that I did notice was the  the prom queen lady was a bitch but my  guys girlfriend is extremely likeable.  Also I'm pretty sure they actually do  have one of the most perfect  relationships and it isn't all just a  mirage.<br />
      Oh dear, I'm starting to be a  drone again. Time to check the prices  for photoshop. I'll see if I can write  more later. ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Great song, on a side note.<br />
<br />
   Anyways...I like this guy, but he  already had a girlfriend.Yeah, as if  that wasn't bad enough HE'S A  JUNIOR!!!(Which is one full year older  than me, a sophmore). Thus said, I  barely ever see him, and when I do he  is with her... and ARRHHHHH!!! <br />
   I mean, it's not just that. They are  the fricken perfect couple. Seriously,  way in love with each other. Yeah...<br />
   Plus, he is SO...just...ugh. He is  insanely talented. And he is really  cute. Why couldn't he have been born  un-extremely hot? Why?<br />
I mean, one person shouldn't have that  many good qualities. Plus, he is  brilliant and in all of these advanced  clases. So, yeah. Can't see the  fairness in that.<br />
<br />
Though I might not mind it all as much  if I was dating him ^_^ ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Let's start this off with saying that I  am a sophmore. It's the truth, and it  seriously bites. Espeacially when the  guy you like is a junior and he already  has a girlfriend (who is a sophmore as  well). So, anyways, I spent all of  Saturday night knowing that they were  both at prom having all this fun while  I was stuck at home. <br />
I really hope that they break up. I  don't care if it is a mean thing to  say, I want him. Know what really sucks  about being a grade lower than the guy  you like? Not only do you have NO  classes with him, you also have to deal  with the knowledge that after high  school is over, you wont even see him  at reunions. That is, unless I crash  their reunion...<br />
<br />
I should have just crashed junior prom. ]]></description>

<br />
Why am I so down with love? Because I  am forever doomed to be liked by people  who I have no intrest for. Either that,  or to like people who will never like  me back. I'm impulsive. Someone's  unatainable, I'm head over heels for  them. Someone treats me like a goddess,  I find them average and boring. <br />
<br />
Can somebody help me here? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ YES!!!<br />
I have been on a whole seeing old  friends spree this year. And I mean OLD  (not actually old, they are all teens).  I haven't seen these people in at least  7 or 6 years. And you know what? They  all go to Berkley High. Aint that  wierd?<br />
<br />
Me and my friends all want to go to  Berkley High, stupid Alameda. At least  I know that if I went there I would  have many friends right off the bat.<br />
<br />
Anyways, all of my friends are just so  damn cool! Or maybe I just haven't seen  them enough and their not really that  insteresting. Either way I am  bamboozled by their levels of  creativity. Do they put something in  Berkley's water that makes people like  that? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I hate being in love. And yet, it is  the only thing that keeps me alive. Why  did he have to touch my arm with such  concern? Draw his body up against mine?  He has no buisness in doing that, he  has a girlfiend. Stupid foxy, guitar  playing, soul crooning, lovely  dude-vixen. <br />
<br />
God, this reminds me of a song...<br />
<br />
Love and other socially acceptable  emotions are morphine<br />
They're morphine<br />
Cleverly concealing primal urges often  felt but rarely seen<br />
Rarely seen<br />
<br />
Love I beg you<br />
Lift me up into that privileged point  of view<br />
The world of two<br />
<br />
Love don't leave me<br />
Because I console myself that Hallmark  cards are true<br />
I really do ]]></description>
