12:36 am	Today we were talking about iq tests and how cultural and racial differences can influence them, and the teacher said some socially progressive schools might produce children whom could quicker recognize Martin Luther King jr than George Washington. Some girl was quick to relate, and said "My school was totally progressive. We spent a lot of time learning about black history month and cesar chavez day and stuff". Sometimes I think back and im happy I chose Cleveland. Current Music: a tribe called quest - The Chase, part 2 (2 Comments |Comment on this)

12:08 pm	I keep coming back to the idea of keeping a journal. Studying psychology, one learns that all memories are better recovered with some sort of cue or reference, like a picture, or a journal. But im worried that people will make fun of me. Just kidding. Ive had a lot of coming of age thoughts lately. I guess being on your own will do that. I dont know what I want to do with my life. Sam says Im a good storyteller. So maybe ill invent a time machine, go back in time to the ages of pre-writing, and be one of those story tellers who sings songs and stuff, like a history book. So I guess when I grow up, I want to be a history book, which isnt a far off shoot of my orignal plan of being a Lexicographer. But I dont have a very good singing voice. I think this will be a good way to keep all my thoughts documented. I cant really handle a pen and a pad anymore. But i guess right now, nothing is worth documenting. Except how much I hate R Kelly, and how upset I am at the kid who is blasting it in one of the rooms adjacent to mine. (Comment on this)

4:07 pm	i think just by reading all of the entries I have written, I notice how far I have come. Despite livejournal being totally dead, I decided to grow nostalgic. I miss the old me who missed things. If you know me, keep in touch. I leave in three weeks. and in the slim event that she might read this, i miss having you in my life more than anything. im sorry whatever happened did. Current Music: cat stevens (Comment on this)

12:05 am	im watching television again to help me fall asleep. if i was masterfully skilled in the field of pyschoanalysis, im sure i could determine what that means. consequently, ive come to realize two things: 1. Ashley simpson is incredibly talented 2. That show about sweet 16's is the fall of the American Empire. That, and the Euro. Im worried about Pat... Im also way excited for the weekend. On many levels. Actually, just one. And her name is yana. Current Music: Lateef (1 Comment |Comment on this)

9:28 pm	i was just taking a shower, and i had a lot of thoughts running through my head. normally, thats where that stops, but thanks to livejournal, i thought id share. on second thought, ill just post this question. Mr Butler said hed take a face shot from Mike Tyson for a couple mil. After thinking about it for a few minutes, he changed his mind. Would you? also. I got pulled over yesterday. By the police. Disregarding all the drug paraphenelia totally nonchanlantly scattered all over my car, it was for sure anti-climactic. they let me go. with good cause. but i was real woried about that warrant out for my arrest. i suppose well meet again, and next time, only one of us will survive. also. can someone explain the nostalgic happy face to me.

1:01 am	while i was at my haircut appointment, my mom, busy getting ready for coffee, leaned into a broken tv antenna and pierced her eyelid. in need of care, she requested i stay in tonight. i hate my mom. shes so selfish and like, doesnt realize I AM A PERSON TOO! geeze, sometimes like, i just need to have fun, and i feel like shes out to get me and ruin my life. like, whatever, ill be 18 soon and im moving out. i got a lot of new music today. ryland came through. its refreshing to build my computer collection. its a fetish i think. i found my airsoft gun. i got 3 new golf gloves for christmas. for anyone whos ever golfed with me, i think they should kind of get it. one of the gloves is certified to retain its anti slip grip in the rain. I was thinking about using it tomorrow, but regardless of its all-climate claim, i think i would just get real wet. my brother wants to be a truck driver. just kidding about my mom. like, she totally poked her eye out and i stayed home, but like, yea, j slash k Current Music: handsome boy modeling school (2 Comments |Comment on this)
