What’s new
I had school. The usual for this week, Math test, me silent all day long, class making teachers angry. Again some people thought I was absent. I couldn’t have been THAT quiet. I talked more today than I did yesterday and some guy said I lost when I said “oh” I really wanted to scream that it wasn’t a contest…that dunce. I think my class is so hopeless -_- they never keep quiet. We almost got extra recess but we talked our way into 3 paragraphs and 5 questions on the book we just got. The teacher didn’t want to teach us. Well we’re reading a book called “things fall part” M’kay enough of school and those people.
After school gramps bought me a hamburger and fries. He found a package and I ran during the middle of my meal and ripped it apart (Well cut it >>) I got two of my Death note mangas. YAY! That made me happy. I visited few sites finished my meal and was locked in my room for the rest of the day reading. I was going to leave vol. 3 for tomorrow but I got way too curious and ended up reading all of it (I wanted to stop at chapter 17) Well my mind is comprehending it faster than anything ever in my life. Parts of it made me laugh hysterically for some reason. The only thing that creeped me out was Light’s smirk..it’s just creepy o__O And when he just lost his composure it made me laugh. I’m just so used to him being calm and intelligent that when him just let go it made me laugh. The next one I will learn more about Misa. Well, since I finished three books in one day I’ll start another. So far I have the most manga in death note (Everything else is just two: 2 FMA 2 Inuyasha 2 Chibi Vampire (I have vol. 1 and 3 but I didn’t buy #2 I just read it)) It’s official! I have 9 mangas in my collection! ^_^ Okay I understand people have from 40 to 200+ manga but I just started out and in some animes I’d rather watch than read. Well mom surprised me with hot chocolate *takes a sip* that made em happy too. Sorry of I didn’t get to your site yesterday. >> I read for too long sorry…and I STILL have to do my homework, viola practice, mopping, eat dinner, make a schedule, organize folders, clean my room, give all my small clothes to charity, *list goes on*
Today
School…bleh still working on that math test
Viola lesson…bleh..taking away computer time
Homework……oh joy I can’t wait for that -_-
Questions:
1) Do you see many fireflies where you live?
2) Do you prefer the city to the country? Why or why not?
3) What is something you want so badly you’d do anything to get it? What price would you be willing to pay?
Commitment Quotes:
We only regard those unions as real examples of love and real marriages in which a fixed and unalterable decision has been taken. If men or women contemplate an escape, they do not collect all their powers for the task. In none of the serious and important tasks of life do we arrange such a "getaway." We cannot love and be limited.
The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating -- in work, in play, in love. (part of a quote from The Way I See It #76, Starbucks Coffee)
Love, like truth and beauty, is concrete. Love is not fundamentally a sweet feeling; not, at heart, a matter of sentiment, attachment, or being "drawn toward." Love is active, effective, a matter of making reciprocal and mutually beneficial relation with one's friends and enemies.
I am only one,
But still I am one.
I cannot do everything,
But still I can do something.
And because I cannot do everything
I will not refuse to do
The something that I can do.
Anime
Well I’m off to buy more manga! ^_^ *goes to amazon.com*
Before I go. learn. now.
Special Request
In Sudan (Darfur region), there are non-arab and arab groups who have had tribal warfare for a while. Most recently though in 2003, African (non-arab) groups declared independence. The Sudanese government, along with a militia known as the Janjaweed have tried to stop it. Not only have they attempted that but they are trying to kill the African groups, regardless of whether they are rebels or just regular people. its been horrific. 400,000 (and now one source says 500,000!) people have been killed! Thousands of women have been raped, some of whom are also gang raped. Millions are starving and I believe 2 million are homeless. It is a terrible situation, and those who are escaping face harsh conditions, hunger, and danger from being attacked by the Janjaweed.
The United Nations has been slow to act and so has the United States.
Would you please sign this petition?
Petition
this petition asks the United Nations to condemn the genocide and to send peacekeeping forces to the region. Well thank you for your time. Buh-bye. ^_^
