"...made with a secret blend of cinnomon and suger."-Tony the Tiger
Can anyone else see the idiesy of this quote?

Wow, I'm posting alot today. Owell I'm realy bored. My brother's friend Ignasio is here so the two of them kinda took over most of down stairs. If I realy whanted to watch tv or something I could kick them out but it doesn't seem worth it. I'm bored and feel like I should be doing something and can't sit still but are to tired to do anything worthwile. Just finished watching a movie with them and dad. Dad brought home some movie I took one look and was like you relize this is subtitled right? He didn't beleive me until we started it. I didn't mind (I'm use to subs so much anime) but dad and Rav's comments got realy annoying after awile. Travis was sitting ther the entire time going over and over I can't tell them apart. It wasn't exactly hard, they looked (refering to two main girls) compleatly different. It was a vampire movie and jackie chan had a small part witch is I think why my dad got it origenaly. I thought it was good and after awile Rav and Ignosio got into it too. Even though only for the fight seens and the two main girls I just mentioned. Ummm...changing topics, have you ever noticed that when say, you make up a character from a storie based on someone or thing how different it can turn out. My friend Kevin has a rather long storie were the main characters are based on us (3 of my friends and I). I have a story (I'm haven't written it down yet) with the main characters based on the same people. But both of us chose different parts of each others personalites to base them of of, does this make any sence. I think it partly has to do with are choice and partialy how we see each other. For example my friend Nicole. In Kevin's story the character based on her is named amy. She is hyper, crazy, has no idea what is going on around her, and the brain capacity of a three year old as well as the attention span. Basic comic releif. In my story she's basicaly the best friend. Funny but very protective and steet smart. Weird, huh? How you can get to compleatly opposite characters based on the same person.

Okay, one more post today and I'm warning you now this might get a little long so if you don't read the whole thing I don't blame you, I probably wouldn't. On the way over to my dad's I was thinking about this. Pop music has a bad rep. I'm not sure exactly how to say what I'm thinking...I'll start by bringing up a discussion in english we had last year. My teacher, mr. harrison, asked us to write down conontations with pop and undergrownd music (i think he was trying to teach us about the difference for conontaive and denotative.) I think I said something about how underground music could become popular or something. Most of my class said things like pop is fake, proccesed, bad, ect. ect. While underground had a message, was important, good, ect. ect. Granted alot of pop is those things but not all of it. Its a very big catagorie that can encompess practically anything. Its so big that alot is bad but alot is also good. Its the same way with other catagories as well. Just because somethings rock or country or punk doesn't make it good but it doesn't make it bad either. You can prefeir a certain type of music but chances are that song you like could be considered pop. The catagorie doesn't just include brittney spears, justen timberlake and such (not that there is anything wrong with them) In the same way just because something isn't well known doesn't make it good or have a message or anything. I've known people who have loved a band until it whent "mainstream" and then didn't like it anymore. Just because other people like it doesn't mean the music has changed. In the same way I know people who refuse to go into the pop section at a record store saying they don't whant to be told what to like by the masses and such things are stupid. But if you think about they are making decesions on what others like. If you don't like something just because everyone else does its as bad as liking it just because everyone else does and makes you just as much of a poser. I'm not going to lie and pretend i haven't done that and still think of pop in a negative way but I'm realy working on not. Thats it. Wow, not nearly as long as I thought it would be. I have a habbit of getting a little wordy and repeating myself alot. I hope I didn't do that to much here.

Okay, I'm back on my dad's computer this time. Lets see were was I...yes just about to mention different peoples styles of packing. I've always noticed that when my parents pack for a trip they always seem to get stressed out. Me today I grabbed my bookbag leaving what was already in there alone and shoved some random clothes in with my books and such grabbed a tooth brush and was done in about 5 minutes. While my mom was upstairs for an hour laying things out, making sure that nothing would get wrinkled, ect. ect. I don't know I always thought that was interesting.

   Whent to dinner with my mom, brother, and dad. Mom and dad whanted to discuss school. I don't realy get angry at people and I don't tend to argue with anyone except my dad. He assumes that all I whant to do is complain and don't have anything to say worth hearing. I was already kinda put out with him so I stayed quiet for awile. Especialy after trying to sugest going somewere else and him snapping at me to shut up and stop complaining. I just thought mom wouldn't like were we were going particualy and I was right. We got into a small yelling match until mom told me to stop entertaining the neighbors and I pointed out we were in the car. That we wouldn't see these people ever again and then shut up. In the car all he would talk about was how he whant me to do this and that ohh and how he's learning to cook, about times seeing how he's 55 and all. So, he gets these high and mighty no argument voices and gets his mind set. He had this kinda smug, I'm better then you, this proves the children can't be trusted voice when he said things like, "Aparently the kids have sports in school and a bus afterwords. I did not know this. They didn't say anything." Pausing after every word. Duh we have sports. I'm in highschool. So, he goes on how travis and I should join and how he called are schools and asked. Call are schools?! I don't know how many times I have to explain it to him before he gets it through his dence head that, yes we have sports and there all competive. I didn't say much but each time I did he just kinda laughed at me. He has the most annoying laugh somethimes. And he whenever I even looked at him he made fun of my lip. My lip? Could he of been any more random. Its my lip and its a normal one. He just makes me some mad. I don't even know why. In the car I was getting so annoyed that I snaped at Ravy, witch it takes alot for me to snap at someone because of another but like I said it my dad but I stood up for him at dinner so were alright now. Dad just sent my mom an e-mail that he thinks I need to take hip hop classes. That I'm (these are his words) cleary coming more introvereted and need to get out more. That this way I can go to sock hops and stuff. What the hell? I will get out if he stops bothering me and not letting me do anything. What is that suppost to mean. He doesn't even see me most of the week. He has no idea what I'm like or what I do when I'm not around him. This is of course of top of the fact that he whants me to take horse back riding that I'm working on squirming out of, school sports witch is not happening, drawing hmmm shes good at that I'm sure a class would be great something I am actualy interested in, and streaching classes with my mom and other 50 something women, witch I don't whant to do but struck a deal with my mom that if she dropped the other stuff I'd do with her. So, when exactly am I suposed to get out in groups. By the way not that he'd care but I'm spending most of tommarow at a friends house and walking into, I guess you'd call it the center of onlney (were I live the main anything worth while in it is on route 108) and at the moment am calling a bunch of people to see who else can come. I am sick of him trying to plan everything I do and I am sick of him not taking me seriously. While we were out mom asked him why he let us talk to him so sarcasticaly. I told her we don't. He invites it and when he say asks if we realy need this for school, pointing to packet of pens in my hands we can't help but give an obvious answer, witch is true. Plus sometimes when he acts like he did tonight there is no point saying anything worthwile because he'll just laugh at you. Tell you you have no idea what your talking about and start lecturing you on something you know is wrong.Witch is also true. Arg.

   Arg, given up on sleep. I'm realy tired but have to many things running through my mind to sleep. So, I finished reading the last 200 or so pages of my book, tossed around in bed for awile and now I'm down stairs on the computer. I've been finishing my book on and of sence about 9 switching between it and the olimpics for awile and you know when you just finish you can't stop thinking about and I feel like I'm getting sick too. Its not to the point were its very noticable but I feel like in a few hours or days depending my throwt and stomic will realy hurt. So anyway, I came down stairs and was getting something to drink when travis came up behind me and wishpered hey. Well at 1 30 in the morning on a tuesday well tecnicaly wensday morning i didn't expect to find anyone down here so I guess the best description of the sound I made would be a yelp while my hart stoped for a second and I expected someone to come up and slit my throwt or something (I have a very active imagenation.) So here I am now.
