Grr

As of late, I've been noticing that I am getting angered much more easily than I think I have ever been before. Little things make me mad. Case in point, yesterday while I was riding the bus home from school, I was listening to an NPR podcast. The topic of this podacast was "The next big presidential election controversy: Gay adoption" The fact that that would even be an issue, let alone be outlawed in Florida, infuriated me.

Now, that is what I would call an understandable fit of rage. But, take for example, today in Photography, our sub stated right off the bat that she was an artist but didn't work with macs so she wouldn't be able to help us with anything we needed. I immediately decided that I really didn't like her. The first thing that went through my head after she said that was "what kind of self respecting artist doesn't use a mac!?" And honestly, what kind of person thinks those sorts of things!? Even a mac obsessive person such as my self usually has the some restraint against thoughts like that... Anyway, I am really not to fond of this sudden burst angryness, and am hopeful that it goes away soon. That is all.

Where The Halls Lead

‘Tis been far to long since my last entry. But that is beside the point. The other day, (and let me say, I use that term very loosely, it was probably more of a month or 2 ago) I was walking down the hallway, and I heard a student yelling at another student. Nothing new of course, this is Sunset we’re talking about, not some Christian prep school. No, that was not surprising in and of itself. The bit that caught me off guard a little was the subject matter in which they were conversing about. “Where the hell is my fucking child support” are I believe the words that the woman said. The rest of the conversation escapes me (the rest of the 30 second clip I heard anyway) but they went on to discuss how the guy was late on paying her and on and on.

Besides making me a little skittish to get out of there, this kinda made me a little sad. Why should a student in high school have to deal with that kinda stuff? Who would put themselves in that kind of situation? But at the same time, I can’t help but feel some respect for her, because, even though she does have a kid, she’s still in school. How much determination she must have is beyond me.

That is all for now. As much as I like her, Norah Jones makes me sleepy.

Chaiyya Chaiyya

Well, my revamped blog concept has not yet come to be, so for now, you’ll have to be satisfied with my normal, infrequent posts. This weekend has been pretty amazing. On Friday, Nina and I went over to Alex’s after school, where we hung out and watched some Dr. Phil and Ellen. After a bit, we decided to swing by my house and pick up my video camera and go to the Pittock Mansion. Unfortunately, the battery on my camera died about 5 minutes into the journey, so we will have to go back (though the latter part isn’t really all that unfortunate.) After that, Nina dropped us off back at Arp’s and went to work.

The rest of that night and the next morning included a lot of chatting and web surfing and Mad TV watching and Halo playing. All fun stuff. While I was there, I got what has to be the best song of the century! (And when I say that, I mean I'm just spazzing over it and will probably listen to it 50 times in 2 days and hate it forever) Its called Chaiyya Chaiyya and its from The Inside Man soundtrack. Really good.

Parting Thought: What do you do when the chickens take over the world?

The Voice Has Meandered From Its Purpose

I've been getting really bad at keeping this up to date. in between posting the random song lyrics and my last post, I went over to Alex's house where we were suppose to meet Nina, but of course, she had to go to the beach with her sister and mom. So instead, we hung out at his place and played halo and watched Beetle Juice (*cringe*) which I must say, despite his claims, I still really don't like... oh well.

Back to the blog though, I think that it is about time I do some revamping. What that would be, I do not know. but I think that instead of these really infrequent posts, that I might do a more methodical one once a week or something like that. I've also just realized how many blasted times I use the word "I" and am thinking that it might be good to tone that down a little. In any case, there will hopefully be some sort of reformation of this blog at some point in the future. Until then...
