Today, I nearly ran over one of my friends.

How did you manage that?

 

And Shiny, hope things will be okay. PM me if you need any help with school work :P

Saw me some Hamlet today. Going in largely not knowing what was going in, I picked up on the story quite easily. Good fun.

 

We had ~10 hours of bus, though. Was sitting with the ladyfriend, so it was good. ;o

 

Do not want school tomorrow.

Tim, I think you should retake that pciture. It's all blurry and out of focus...

About to go for surgery #10 on my knees in a minute or two. Hopefully to be the last. >.<

 

Edit: Jeffwilson99, that sig would go so nice with my avatar. :P.

Classes were cancelled for a half day today on behalf of a nasty winter storm...rain and snow for 6 hours then 25mph winds and 7" of snow. It's horrible out there today, good thing my classes were all before noon :thumbup:

my mum asked me to help her cut the lawn. i wouldn't complain

but 'helping' is holding the wire as she cuts. what is up with mums

wanting you to be helpful yet giving you the [cabbage]ty task that doesn't

even needs to be done D=

 

tomorrow theres a strike for teachers but it doesn't affect us...

sadface

I'm pretty sure that storm is just reaching me now. I hope it isn't as strong as that, I have things I want to do.

Bit of a snow day today. Pretty much schools weren't cancelled but barely anyone showed up anyway.

Horrible, horrible day.

 

Holocaust survivor came to speak, with the general message of "If you see [cabbage] going down, DO SOMETHING". Unfortunately the whole thing fell on deaf ears, as the ENTIRE 2 HOUR SPEECH, people were yammering on. It was WORSE than I expected. Girls talked about stupid gossip and crap, boys all laughed at every detail of his stories and made Nazi and holocaust jokes. When they didn't have anything to say, they would VERY loudly clear their throats just to make some kind of noise. At the end when we could ask questions, most people just ask stupid crap that seemed deliberately asked to be offensive. The ones that were in the back that he couldn't see all had a stupid smile on their face.

 

To top it all off, at the end of the day, that autistic kid on my bus was made fun of again. This time they were trying to convince him that his dead grandpa that he loved is waiting for him back at home. I jumped in, and it was very close to a fist fight before we came to his stop.

 

I am convinced that violence is the ONLY way to end this crap.

Horrible, horrible day.

Remember remember the quote of the survivor-ber.

Horrible, horrible day.

Or maybe you should stop caring about insignificant [cabbage]. Kids are disrespectful. This is not a new thing.

Alright, I'll just stop caring about being forced to be around these people. Disrespect to the level of making fun of a holocaust survivor a few feet away from him? To trying to convince a kid with a mental disability that his dead grandfather will be there when he gets home so he'll be upset when he gets there? (He didn't believe them obviously, apparently they think autistic=stupid, but the point is that they would try).I refuse to believe it. This cannot be normal behavior. And even if it is, does that mean that nothing should be done about it?

Watching Glenn Beck right now... very entertaining.

I think his team does a better job with his books.

Dizzle, your school seems terrible (No offense to you or anything). I'm sort of repulsed anyone would do either of those things.

Weird thing is, the seniors are actually really cool, but the three lower grades are horrendous. Apparently my year isn't the worst though, teachers say that this year's freshman are HORRIBLE compared to us. I can only imagine.

 

Edit: Btw, I just realized that I REALLY should clarify. When I said violence is the only solution, I meant to the people on the bus, not the school in general, though it is still a fine choice IMO. Those that read my RLH&A post, the peaceful option worked for a while with them, but it seems to be ending.

Got my license :mrgreen:

I think I have strep throat. Unfortunately, I may have discovered this too late to prevent me from infecting my girlfriend though. I'm enforcing a "No Contact" policy to be safe though, which she is very unhappy about. Especially since we have Friday plans.

 

Basically my left tonsil is white and looks like it's rotting and the right one is red and swollen with white spots behind it. Basically if you searched for images of strep throat and found the worst looking ones (don't if you're kinda squeamish, they're a little gross) that's what my left tonsil looks like. I wish I had looked at it when it started feeling weird like 2 weeks ago.

Wrote a long post, then pressed enter and it backspaced. Hang on, will edit in a sec.

 

It HAS affected me on numerous occasions.

 

-Caused me to have to redo a project that I read a 750 page book for.

-Cost my parents and myself money when they ruined a trip to Washington D.C., by complaining that the museums were boring until they decided to just go back to the hotel and leave hours early. We didn't get to go to most of the museums as a result. If you didn't want to see museums, then why did you come on this trip?

-Constantly slowing progress in classes to the point where we learn only a fraction of what we're supposed to. And it's not that they're not understanding the material and need more time to learn, that's a legitimate reason, and it's not like I am anything special academically myself. What I mean is the 3 classes I have that are constantly interrupted by distractions and BS to the point of missing out on entire units at the end of the year, forcing some questions on the final to be answered by luck and outside knowledge.

-Constantly making me miss the one class I'm actually enjoying by leaving a mess of the cafeteria, at which time the lunch assistants force us to stay back and clean the place. Can't say I blame them, but my god, it isn't hard to eat without making a mess.

 

And yes, there will always be stupid people, but after school you at least have more of a choice of who you associate with. You can't get rid of them completely, but I imagine it's at least better than THIS. Here, there's no such freedom.

Off of work at Chili's. Work in two hours at the new retail job.

Hmm. I've decided I'm probably going to spend my Saturday reading Atlas Shrugged.

 

Think I can do it in one day?

Even if you spend all day on it, is it even possible? :-?

Man up and do it.

I don't know. I've decided it takes me about 100 seconds per page (Very rough average) So that'd be about 17 hours of what I have left. (I have 100 pages read so far).

But you'll slow down as you get tired and/or bored.

No, I'll be answering questions about it as I go (It's the book I chose for my Isu)
