   Nobody's updated!
OMIGOODNESS! WHO AM I GONNA VISIT?!

Well, for those who might come here later, I'm havin' a good day. My mom's feelin' a bit better and my bro's doin' fine. We had guests yesterday and we spent the whole time playing DDR and Dance Factory; it was sooo fun! But they left a mess and our counters are officialy bare of anything that is sweet ^_^U Oh,well. Today's a cleaning day thanks to that.

I'm really happy with my new bed... I've been sleeping wither with my mom or on a matress for the past coup-le of months, and a few weeks ago (3) I got my bed ^_^ It's great with these spiffy shelves where I have all my manga sorted neatly on...! *sighs* I'm done!

Well, I'm gonna go now!
ja ne!

PS=Hm... Have y'all had good weekends?

   Saturday!
Hilo my great friends!!!!!!
Today's kinda cloudy where I am, but I like cloudy days, so all's good.
Kinda grave post yesterday; sorry, I tend to do that sometimes, and all of a sudden I feel much better! Mom's sick and so's my littlest brother, so I feel bad. I'm helpin' out as much as I can until they're better.
I was listenin' to James Otto yesterday and today; it was really nice to hear his voice again. I love his song, "Days of Our Lives". It has nothing to do with the soap opera, just in case. I started singing to his songs, and next thing I knew, I was sooo getting those notes I had trouble with, holding those sounds longer... it was great, 'specially since I have a rough voice for a girl ^_^U
Yesterday that Abner guy I mentioned before said he heard me singing in class a lot and that he really enjoyed it. I was shocked,
1. Because, as I said, my voice is rough.
2. I didn't think anyone could hear me--it was quieter than humming!
3. He didn't seem like the kind that would enjoy listening to some girl sing.
Oh, well, it was nice to hear. I thanked him for the compliment.
I have Dance Factory, WOOT WOOT! It's like Dance Dance Revolution, only you can use your OWN music! SWEET! Gonna go play now!
ja ne!
PS=You guys ever play dancing games? (ME=YEAH!)

   I'm tired...
I was considering going to the home football game today, just to say I went, but with the amount of homework I have and the amount of time it's gonna take to get rid of this headache, I doubt I'll be able to go.

Well, let me just say what's been on my mind today.
For the past two days, we've been watching a video called "Surviving High School" in my LMS class. (Life Management Skills) It takes 11 teenagers from the same high school, each of them obviously from different "social classes" and labels. They covered soo many issues that've been affecting us nowadays, such as eating disorders, labels, teasing, depression and suicide. I nearly cried today when I watched the last parts, based mostly on depression, suicide, and labels.

The leading causes of teen death in the US are:
1.car accidents.
2.homicide (someone kills you)
3.suicide (you kill yourself)
500,000 ppl attempt suicide each year in the US.
125,000 ppl succeed.
7,000 of these ppl are teenagers from the age of 13 to 18.
Girls are more prone to attempt than boys.
Boys are more prone to succeed than girls.

My school's made up of 3,248 or so students. Double that, and there won't be a high school here anymore. There'll be a hall of memoirs and distraught parents and friends.
That's how bad it is, thanks to discrimination, racism, bullying, gangs, drugs, alcohol, and stress.
Many of us believe we can only deal with it. But we need to fix this, one person at a time. Are we really all so different, that we can't try to help each other? Can't try to strip the labels? How many of us really enjoy not being able to walk down that certain hallway, ask that certain person the time, or even go to the locker located next to that certain skin color?!
Adults say we're the future. But this is what the past will be by the time that age comes.
I'm trying... recognize hte power of words, and think twice the next time you bug some1 'bout their hair, clothes, or manner of speaking.
Please.
Well... I've gone on enough. I have to do some research on the school's website for Journalism (Why'd I sign up for this class...?) So...
ja ne!
PS=What's your color today? (Me=navy. Cuz that's the color shirt I wore today, and that's one of my many favorite colors.)

   I-I had an appointment! That's why I didn't go to school!
AArg! I overslept for the first time since
I started school this year! I can't believe it! That cell phone almost never fails to wake me up, and I was hardly asleep! Well, when we finish the meeting at my school, I'm gonna stay if Biology hasn't finished yet. OTherwise, there's no way on earth I'll stay for Algebra 1.

I found all the locations! Reason I couldn't find them before was cuz I was looking for maps on the net instead of online encyclopedias. I'm telling you, in less than ten minutes, I had everyhting FINITO!!!!!!

Lol, I'm gonna go now. I'm sad that the Crocodile Hunter died; my mom and I were in a state of shock and mom nearly in tears. And he had a daughter too; I just hope she doesn't have to see her father's death on video as she's flipping through the channels in the future... That w2ould be flat-out depressing.

*takes of for the Skies*
ja neeee!

PS=...The ad-section in my backroom says "Otaku Loves You :-)" ...THAT'S SOO SWEET! I needed to hear that ^_^

   Progress!
Can't write long-- I'm strictly working on my DNAngel video cuz the past two days I haven't worked on it. I'm so proud; It's so COOL!!! Dark's in there a plenty, and Wiz has his own spotlight in there ^_^

Today I finished the latitude and longitude grid on the world map I'm doing for Global Studies; Mom kept saying it looked professional, so I'm glad. Today I feel really good, both physically and mentally. I'm excited for Tuesday cuz there's gonna be a meeting concerning whether I get into the Gifted Program. I was in a couple years ago, but I moved to the PR, and they don't have that over there. HOWEVER, I could never be more grateful for this three-day weekend!

EVERYONE HAVE A GREAT LABOR-DAY WEEKEND!!!!!!

PS=...What clubs ya in? (Me=poetry club. Writers club got cancelled the first year cuz of htis huge issue that's too long to explain. the only ppl that made it to the meeting were me and a guy named Leor. He's cool, but we were both somewhat disappointed with the outcome of the second meeting. We're hoping this week's will be better!)

Well, I'm gon' go now. It's late, so...

   Ernesto's comin'... but I seriouslycan't tell...
Hilo!!!
I'm happy today for no absolute reason (maybe cuz school was canceled) and that's great to me. I have a Global Studies project I should be working on, but... ^_^U maybe in a little while. I have to make a map of the world. He had so many specifications, I don't even think I have a paper big enough for it! Well, that's okay. I'll improvise with a glue stick! Yeah, school's tough. I'm in a Biology Honors course right now, and that's actually turning out to be much easier than I thought it would be. What's killing me is my Algebra 1 course, cuz the teacher gives soo much homework! I mean, come on!! Lol, but I guess that's his job, and it helps.

Hey, has any1 felt thast Kyo from Fruits Basket and Inuyasha have similar personalities? I don't know much about Inuyasha, but I've heard that they're alike. But for some reason, I feel they'd kill each other or something cuz of it...

ja ne!
PS=Ernesto's s'posed to hit in the afternoon. It looks normal outside, but I have yet to get used to Florida's weather!
