    wow, so Monday I nearly fainted in karate. I didn't even know I have asthma. Apparently it's stress-induced. great! looks like I'm not gonna be able to push myself properly this week of graduation because I'm too stressed over colleges. Pathetic and so inconvenient.
    I'm glad we had a snow day. Not only did I still have a huge headache this morning from the inhaler, but now I'm almost caught up with work this quarter now. unfortunately I can't extend webassigns due two weeks ago. so even though I did the work now, I can't even get any credit for it (not even for four points off). I have to say that one of those two I want extended wasn't my fault that I didn't complete it on time. I was freaking out about how the comet was CLOSER at apogee than at perigee... he switched all the words on me and I didn't want to submit the assignment until I got all the points. Sleezy that I can't get anything now. wtvr.
    So we shoveled the driveway three times... two of those times I did the entire job. So fun. But I'm getting to be quite an expert at snow driving. Actually, no I always piss off drivers behind me b/c I like to go 34 in 35 zones and such. Ah well. My parents promised me that I can learn the manual transmission car once I have my 30 hours, so that's gonna be exciting.

    I've been trying to distract myself from college the entire week..... it's really not working. SATURDAY IN 4 DAYS!!!!! (and i may hear Thursday if I'm lucky)

    Wow. I've had an amazing week and it's only Wednesday. I don't think anything could really ruin it completely for me... (unless I fail my math proof tomorrow. at least we don't have to remember four different statements - that was the problem the last time.)

    And I got my temps!!!.... the last person in the senior class no doubt... but honestly there wasn't any point. my mom has refused point blank to insure any car for me, so it's not like I could even drive with a full license.... I really ought to take Kelly up on that offer she made before to start the 'Debby needs money for all the normal stuff my friends have that my mom refuses to get me' ... like oh let's say a prom dress AND a graduation dress!!! she's now refusing to buy a graduation dress also b/c i'm only gonna wear it once...

    wtvr, i couldn't care less right now.

    where is everyone thinking of applying for college?
    my list:
    swarthmore college
    (haverford college)
    Washington University in Saint Louis
    Oberlin Colllege
    (Carleton College)
    University of Wisconsin-madison

    sort of a pathetic list... not ivy and yet not uw oshkosh or carol college. i'm not quite sure what to think of myself.

    man, it's really lonely here. just me and the rents. amy left this morning before i woke up. no friends around to hang out with, no bf to call at midnight, and a bunch of work to do. blargh. (and why is the bored mouse crying? it should have a blank, staring expression. it's not depressed...?)

    who is in 7th period bio with me and sasha?
    ap english 8th?

    wow, what a terrible thought.

    i was at a birthday party for one of my karate friends (turned 9 a couple weeks ago). well, i was the oldest there but it wasn't awkward because i'm friends with practically all the kids there. Anyway, but i'm friends with jenna's entire family (i met mrs. richardson in the teen/adult class) and as i left i was saying thankyou to her. she was saying that she was glad i came..."you're sortof like her hero and she was so happy when she heard you could come!"

    her hero? that's just really disturbing. heros have ..well, heroic pasts.. always fighting for the greater good and that crap. to think a sweet and innocent little girl would follow my example... that's disturbing. all the mistakes i've made. all the terrible things i've said and done... it really makes you consider your life... well, for me it does anyway.
    it's been bothering me all weekend.

    omfg. OMFG!!! i don't believe that woman. i honestly don't believe her.
    ok, so i suppose i've ticked her off by telling her three times since january that she ought to wear a bra uncer her clothes in public, but that's no reason....

    ok, yesterday i thoroughly cleaned the house in anticipation of my sister on the 9th (i couldn't clean on the 8th b/c of that lovely party (thanx lucy!! <3). well, i left the house this morning, and the house was clean - obviously; i mean i just cleaned it 10 hours ago. anyway, so i came back and entered the house. i was really tired that i barely registered more than that the house was pretty dirty - cups and dishrags on the counters, papers all over... but i was concentrated on getting a shower and only barely registered my mom's angry reprimand about my burn. when i came down from the shower, however, (having just cleaned the bathroom i would be sharing with my sister - so i was in a dirt-spotting mood) i stopped dead. i entered the kitchen slowly, looking around at the ruin. the sink was disgusting and clogged slightly, dirty dishes lay everywhere, and worst of all, white flour was all over the counters and even a little bit of it had spilled on the kitchen rugs and floor. as my eyes traveled to the floor i noticed that it was sprinkled with grass clippings, dirt, and paper cuttings. papers were stacked high on the kitchen table and there were a couple of gym weights there too.....

    i casualy asked mom what she had done today. "oh, i read a lot." (and by the looks of it, spent the whole day messing the first floor up!!! for as i looked, i found the computer room a mess also.)

    yeah, i just spent 1.5 hours doing the crappiest cleaning job i think i've done in a while, but it can't be helped b/c i'm really tired and have to treat my sunburn or i'll get another yelling to for not caring about my health.

    god!! (i'm sorry to religious people, but i feel i need to use the lords name in vain here.)

    how am i to live with that bitch? i only vacuumed and swept before i gave up. i even discovered she managed to put dirt under the rugs, too; and since the rugs are small and move at the slightest touch, that dirt had to swept away too. what a scheming biotch!!!!!!!

    It is widely accepted that in 1971, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California, calling themselves "The Waldos", used to meet every day after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana at the Louis Pasteur statue. The term became part of their group's salute, "420 Louis," and it eventually caught on more widely. Many cannabis users continue to observe 4:20 as a time to smoke communally. By extension April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. dating shorthand) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.

    There are also many apocryphal urban legends attempting to explain the origin of the term. Two of the most common of these are that 420 refers to the number of active ingredients in cannabis, or that it is police dispatch code for cannabis. In actual fact there are around 315 active chemicals in cannabis, varying depending on the exact plant used, and 420 has never been verified as the police dispatch code for anything in any locale.

    ACT math was ridiculously easy. science was ridiculous hard... because it was the last section. reading was impossible because i'm a sucky reader. english was perfect becasue it's easy and first.

    Wow, that woman doesn't even make any sense. so I perform perfectly at the demo and the mom is like "oh yeah you were good i guess." so i ask her what i could do better and she was like "oh, actually i couldn't see you b/c someone was in my way." most people would say that what they saw was great but not that "i guess you were ok".... rather mad.

    too much homework.

    Click sucks and adam sandlers can not act being upset or anything except calm.

    damn webassign.

    Gatsby and calc. just another couple hours before i'll have done enough work to go to bed.... i lie. i have about fourteen.

    ok, bertucci killed three trees just on the two bc sections!! he printed our big packet, ap tips, some practice multiple choice, ...... AND over 200 pages of every long response problem for the past nine years or so.... for EACH PERSON!
    then pack killed half a tree by printing 73 pages of plain old lined paper for each person... wtf.

    nooo! shantel left west side academy!!! wonder if she was kicked out or what...

    met a nice guy today at the tutoring session though. he works at marquette and offered me an oppurtunity to do some biology lab work some time down at marquette. weekdays, saturdays, or summer... wow.

    speaking of summer... so i was thinking of having a nice relaxed summer with no school and so far i have five art classes a week, two online physics courses i think at stanford, and driver's ed... then there's reading like fifty books my rents decided for me (that'll be the highlight of the summer.....)

    haha, stats actually has homework!!!! omg! i'm amazed.

    hahah, wartburg college e-mailed me yesterday. wartburg. man.
    "where do u go to college?" *embarrassed cough* uhh... wartburg?

    got back from los vegas. i got sick there b/c i couldn't handle all the hooker cards and drunkards (yes, i'm that pathetic). dad got altitude sickness when we went to arizona and his abdominals were in terrible pain while we explored bryce canyon (not too much less impressive than the grand canyon i have to say). the evil mom sat on a cactus =))) (and then i was told i had to get all those stupid prickles outta her pants and skin.. so i got two handsfull). and finally my sister got so sick from extrenuous exercise followed by food that she barfed.
    good vaca though. besides the fact that we were jammed in a car with each other for most of the time. the mom always found something to blame me for. cheers.

    homework =(

    Chemistry is physics without thought. Mathematics is physics without purpose.
    A biker was riding along a California beach when suddenly the sky
    clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said,

    "Because you have tried your best to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish."

    The biker pulled over and said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over any time I want."

    The Lord said, "Your request is materialistic. Think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would take! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources. I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for worldly things. Please take a little more time and think of something that would honor and glorify me."

    The biker thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, "Lord, I wish that I could understand my wife. I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when she says nothing's wrong, and how I can make a woman truly happy."

    The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four on that bridge?"

    but the best two are:
    ----------------------------
    Physics professor has been doing an experiment, and has worked out an empirical equation that seems to explain his data. He asks the math professor to look at it.

    A week later, the math professor says the equation is invalid. By then, the physics professor has used his equation to predict the results of further experiments, and he is getting excellent results, so he asks the math professor to look again.

    Another week goes by, and they meet once more. The math professor tells the physics professor the equation does work, "But only in the trivial case where the numbers are real and positive."

    A farmer has problems with his chickens: all of the sudden, they are all getting very sick. After trying all conventional means, he calls a physicist to see if they can figure out what is wrong. The physicist tries. He stands there and looks at the chickens for a long time without touching them or anything. Then all of the sudden he starts scribbling away in a notebook. Finally, after several gruesome calculations, he exclaims, "I've got it! But it only works for spherical chickens in a vacuum."

    I watched the first eight scenes of the godfather and it was soo dark. it didn't scare me, but that was just unnecessary bloodshed and i don't think i'm going to forget the horse's head in the guy's bed.. *shudders*

    on a different note, my West Side Academy kid had "behavioral problems" last time and refused to leave West Side even when the janitors told her to go... idk what that's about. But I had another kid. She was sweet, but her attention span was really short and her grammar was terrible. for example apparently for her birthday last friday she "had crab legs was really good," all in the same sentence. and making her write her journal was pulling teeth.

    Anyway, good news - Amy and Dad are coming home on the same day!! Tomorrow evening!! I'm so excited b/c dad's been so lonely in China (no, he can't speak chineese... which is a lot of the problem) and he's bringing back lots of real pearls!! ..and chocolate! the perfect father, lol.

    NO SCHOOL!!

    i spent the day working on my history paper. I must say I rather enjoyed it a lot. Stanton is such an abrasive character. of course, General McClellan was pretty mean to keep Stanton waiting for an hour, not offer him an seat, and not introduce him to the other dinner guests, but that doesn't mean he has to try like fifteen times to get McClellan replaced. McClellan was a terrible general though. Not offensive at all. Never attacked Lee if he could help it.

    Anyway, then i slept for ten hours today, so I didn't waste any time. The sleep helped me get better, but now my mom's sick. Ah well.

    stats test was impossible! even maddie says she's lost her game day (meaning she got below an 80%). I don't think i did THAT badly, but that test was murder. half the time I was BSing my answers. For example one of the tougher questions said that the confidence Interval of 95% was 19.8-24.2 (which includes 20) but that the probability of 20 was statistically insignificant by some other test. I said that since your confidence interval was only 95% you have a 5% chance of getting it wrong and the other test was demonstrating it, but I have no clue.
    Furthermore, i didn't even finish! i left 3d completely blanck and Flange pulled the test out of my hands right as i was writing confi-(...dence)

    anyway, and of course that fire was quite interesting. only at usm would we have telescopes on the roof in the exact right orientation to start a fire and melt part of the roof.... probably in the wild you wouldn't have that much success, but this is usm.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY SASHA!! =)

    haha, o, and on a different theme, doc never gave me my dt slip so looks like i'm in the clear so far. that was so stupid anyway. apparently the other class got dt's for not having their HOMEWORK done and he changed the standard for our class. wtvr.
