Better Now

Thanks to the stranger in the chat room

I haven't updated in a few days, when I wanted to update the server crashed and it took me awhile to log in a be able to add this entry. So be happy people. I got love comments from Shelly and Ricky, yay, people really do love me!

Not much happened while I didn't update, I slept and I watched a few movies that I haven't seen. I watched Mr. 3000 with Bernie Mac and in the background was I Vow To Thee My Country - that SLOW piece that we played for our first concert. I hate that piece. I watched Taxi and it was pretty funny, made me want to be a cop even more. But I'm still not sure now if I should be a cop, the money isn't really what I'm worried about. I just want to be sure that I've made the right choice, I don't want to be doing that job and be miserable everyday.

Saturday my grandma called me and we chatted for over and hour. She got a new cell phone, fully loaded with a camera and video. That's so sad, she's all hi-tech and I have this pre-pay phone. Oh well it's not like I really use my phone that much. My dad told her that I'll be going down there in June, but I overheard him talking to Jane saying, "Oh, they'll be getting jobs." It was said with a they-have-to tone. So I don't know what the hell I'll be doing this summer. She told me that my dad said that my mom said, "Well Theresa will just have to get a job because I'm not paying for a car." My mom didn't even say that, my dad was twisting shit. I had to set my grandma straight.

My mom called while I was talking to my grandma so I talked to her. We talked about Boston and how everything was expensive up there. She said that she only had one encounter with Gary's ex, there was tension, but nothing major happened. I don't think I'll be visiting Boston, I don't like expensive places that don't have worthwhile things.

I was watching the Teen Titan marathon on Cartoon Network so I didn't get any breakfast, so at like 1PM Jane knocked on my door and asked if I wanted a taco salad from Ricky's Cafe. So I got a chicken one. It was good and we got the cheese salsa with the resturant chips, man that is the best.

I went to sleep late because of Mateo. He takes up the whole bed and there is NO room for anyone else to sleep on it. I had him and Bo in my bed with me that night and I didn't want to wake up Sunday morning. But I eventually did when I heard this LOUD knock on a door. So I get up and just walk around the living room grounding the sleep out of my eyes.

I didn't even take a shower when my parents went to go pick up Erika. I was home alone. YES! So I ate breakfast and watched tv. I took a shower and washed my hair. My hair is actually really curly now and I think it would look good down, but I shall wait. I asked my dad to get me this maxiglide thing - I've been seeing on infomercials - but he's like, "I have to go look for this other that your grandma told me about at a beauty place." Ok, when are you going to do that? Plus this maxiglide thing is only $80 (I want the mini one also and that's like $40) when the one in the store is at least $120. But we'll see what happens.

After I made my bed I got on the computer and went into a chat room and because I saw Ricky on I asked people what they would do in my situation and this guy answered me and I followed his advice and talked to Ricky, he was right! I told Ricky I was sorry about how I fucked things up and he said that he understood and we chatted for a bit. I even got to see his car and it's really nice, he's supposed to be taking pictures of the interior for me. I'm jealous, but hey if my dad goes to Iraq I'll get a car when he gets back.

I talked to Sally while I was talking to Ricky, we're so into the japanese culture and she even has an internet pen pal who lives in Japan. I think it's really cool, I want to go to college for a few years then go over to Japan for a few years, head over to England, and finally Ireland. I hope that I'll get to visit those three places in my lifetime. I can always go to Germany, my Oma lives there. I hope that Sally goes and lives there so I can just live with her for awhile. Sally, remember to learn to play guitar. YOU MUST BECOME FAMOUS SO YOU CAN GO ON A WORLD WIDE TOUR!

I got off so I could read my Poe stuff, The Fall of The House of Usher was freaking long and boring. The last page of it was really good, I didn't really understand it, but at least I read it. I ate spaghetti with my parents because Erika was with Lisa - correction Lisa drove her to some guy's house so they could fuck. I had no problem because I liked it, I got my homework done.

Got to watch Crossing Jordan, good stuff. My grandma and mom would prefer it if I became a medical examiner instead of a cop. I'm not sure, I mean I'll have to be in school for a really long time, but then again I'll be studying something I like. I don't know. I guess we'll see my second year in college, right? Japan's got a good medical college and asian countries have very great school systems. Who knows?

Well as I'm trying to drift off to sleep I decide to turn on my Postal Service cd, by #9 I hear this noise that sounded like a fight going on across the street, I look out and there isn't anything out there. I turn off my music and I hear this half human, half cat sound coming from what seems DIRECTLY in front of my window. I lay there, on the side closest to the door - my bed is RIGHT NEXT to my window - trying to get my dog to hear it and bark. Well of course he just rolls over and goes back to sleep. 10 mintues later the sound gets LOUD and I finally gave in and went to my parents room and told them there was something outside my window. When I tell them Erika comes out and confirms what I had thought. Mom thought it was cats mating, but it sounded so human. Dad gets dressed and walks out there with his gun and Mateo. Mom was right, it was a cat. It was the scariest sound I've ever heard in my whole entire life. I went to sleep at around 12AM. I was awakened to a loud clap of thunder and my tv going on. The power went out for a second. I was so mad, it was 5AM! I couldn't fall back to sleep because Mateo was freaking out.

I woke up and was NOT a happy camper. I took a shower and I made my bed, did my hair and was eating by 6:45 this morning. I go back and turn on The Postal Service and start dancing around my room. I LOVE their music. I get dressed and walk out the house at my usual time. I get to the bus stop seconds before he rounds the corner. We have the shit bus again.

We're in the auditorium for band, again. I hate going to the auditorium, it's not as fun as the band room. I can't help it. I realized I hadn't done my vocab for anatomy so I had to hurry and do that. Brian showed me his tounge and nipple piercings, never realized it, but he's got a hot bod. Jessica told me a little bit of band gossip, WoJo and Chris Attaway are rooming together. Mr. Smith stopped and he was like, "Clarinets say da ta da ta da." We said it and we had to repeat it several times then he said, "Well one of you in this area (indicating the seconds - me, Jourdan and Megan) is slopping through it and Megan I think it's you." Man oh man was I waiting for that. She's highest second part, she should know her music by now.

I copied Maile's vocab down before we started grading our worksheet, I missed only 5, considering I just wrote stuff in for about 6 of them I did good. Zach didn't talk to me today and I was very happy because I'm not sure what I would've done. Sharup helped me a little bit with my compare and contrast extra credit. So I'll have to get on that soon.

We're talking about JFK in history now. It was a crazy class today. Everyone was very talkative and of course I had to share my crypt-a-quote. I don't mind. We didn't have that many for our section review so I'll be doing that later on tonight. Psychology was a review of what we learned the week before break. Addison and I were talking about all sorts of stuff. He's really funny. He said that he doesn't know why Kendall doesn't like black people, he said Kendall had no answer. How is that possible? So I'll be talking to him tomorrow. We got a new kid in our class, BLAH. I didn't want him to sit in the seat in front of me because I liked my space. While we were reviewing notes Addison drew funny pictures on the back of some calculus, they looked creepy but with egg-shaped eyes. Oh yeah Christina, we talked about you. Dun dun duuuuuuuuuuuuun!

Found out that Anthony dumped Jamee, what a fag. Why, he didn't even tell her why. My thing is if you're going to dump someone be prepared with an acutal reason not, "I think you know why." or the classic "We should see other people." GIVE A GIRL AN ANSWER! Saw Garrett and he was like, "Give me a hug I haven't seen you in 10 days, I missed you." Yay! I'm so loved.

We had a new seating chart in english and Danh, Ryan and I didn't have seats. We weren't on the chart. So we sat in the row along the wall. I don't like it and we want a new seating chart. Oh well most likely we won't be sitting there, we'll be moving around to sit near other people. I don't like it because of Shana, she's the dumbest person I know. And she acts you stupid questions like, "You're black?" No, I'm Irish.

Math was cool because all we had to do was class work. Mrs. Schwarz wasn't in the room most of the time and I talked to Garrett most of the time. I stole his "Music for all" bracelet. I was going to give it back at the end of class, but of course he was called to the office or something. Oh well.

I was thinking I should call Wes today, but I have a few things I must do. I should call him soon, huh? I had a really cruel dream about him a few days ago. It was cruel because it took place in the near future and I saw him and we ran and gave each other hugs and caught up for like 5 minutes then he had to leave and I didn't get to see him again. I woke up with a strong urge to cry.

This weekend I need to figure out how to work my MP3 player because I really want to listen to it soon. I think I'll keep diaryland for awhile because I think I like Ryan and if I wrote that down in xanga the whole band would find out and start doing the same thing they did when they found out I like James. I think it's because I can be myself around him and he makes me laugh. Or maybe it's because he's a drummer/stomp team member?!

I need to use my time well after I get off of this here computer because I need to memorize 5 stanzas before 5th hour tomorrow. I need to get that extra credit, plus they're dramatic stanzas so I can show off my acting skills.

"And I kissed you in a style that Clark Gable would have admired
(I thought it classic)"
-The Postal Service
Who wouldn't want to be kissed movie-style?

Theresa
