Prom was awesome, wildwood wasn't to bad, still hate jersey with a passion though.

This is no place in the world that I love more then Philly. Only place that comes close is Puerto Rico. But I will always live in and represent Philly. I've seen the good and the bad but I love all of it!

I made a sandwich and a banana.

I woke up at 7:30 again today, went to work by 8:00. Just got done at like 6:00. I made a lot, that was nice. Going to see the Pirates of the Caribbean movie now.

When I was walking through the city the other day, I dropped an empty bottle I was holding onto the ground and it rolled under a street pole cover-thing. I looked to the left, and then I looked to the right, and then I walked away. True story.

​Gay is not a civil right? I don't understand, I think it should be because you should have any and every right to be happy in your own skin without feel any way about it. The definition of civil rights is rights to personal liberty established by the 13th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. constitution and certain Congressional acts, especially as applied to an individual or a minority group; the rights to full legal, social, and economic equality extended to blacks. As I research more and more about civil rights I find that people are blaming the president of the United States of America, Barack Obama for this non-sense. Msnbc.com are saying that when Barack Obama got elected in 2008, that is when voters in California voted to over turn the rights for gays and lesbians to get married in Florida and California. Msnbc.com asks “how can you compare being black to being gay?” You can easily hide the physical appearance of being gay to dodge the harmful discrimination by other people. However, you can’t disguise the color of black skin. There is not a way to escape the mind corrupting discrimination and non-acceptance.

I participated in a drum circle over the weekend and thought to make my analysis on all the different drums that were present. Some were hand drums and others had sticks and other tools for striking the head of the drum.

A drum is played by striking the head of it with either one's hand, stick or other relatively hard object. On some drums its impossible to change the note however on others, specifically hand drums, the player can place their hand on the open end to distort the waves on the inside and increasing the pitch. Hitting the drum at different distances from the center to the rim also changes the pitch, the center being the lowest and the rim being the highest.

Different drums are shaped differently and thus have different sounds, however the basic design is a cylinder open on one end and covered with an elastic material covering the other. Some drums have strings attached to the elastic head, that when tightened increase the pitch of the sound produced.

While observing and experimenting with all the pitches I was able to make with the drum, I noticed it was similar to the slinky lab we did on Friday. When the drum head was pulled tighter by the strings attached to the side there was less space for the same amount of energy to travel. Similar to the slinky when it was pulled for a long distance and shook the waves seemed long and slow, however when the distance between start to finish was shortened the waves shortened and seemed faster.

I'm going to San Francisco! I'm one of six people going as entourage to root on Sinnea and the rest of Philly's Brave New Voices team. This is a tremendous opportunity and I'm extremely gracious that I'm going. Now we just need to fundraise money. Our fundraising goal is $20,000. We're off to a great start with almost $7,000 dollars raised. If anybody knows of anybody who can help please send them to pypm215.org. Any help is extremely appreciated. People who are social media savvy please tweet the link and put on you facebook walls! Thanks!

It's nice to just relax alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll weekend. Yesterday there was a kinetic fair thing. It was pretty cool. Some kids in the engineering club were there. They made a bike in the model of a rocket. My manicure is chipped already.

Yesterday I walked around with stefen and these other two girls. We walked from 42 to university center and walked on the u-penn campus. there was a pond full of turtles ,ducks and Koi fish. There was a giant koi fish and we named him/her magikarp on the other side of the lake was a guy playing guitar making a mood and stuff.we bought bread and feed them to the ducks and koi and walked partially to 30th and market then back to Zachs house after that zach and stefen walked me to 40th street and I went home from there and I almost got hit by a car while dancing in the street. Fantastic day.

My mom and I have very different definitions of the word "enough".  I tend to fall on the lighter end, while with her, a party for 8 becomes a gathering for 20. I like to think that I am usually right, that we have too much food.  However, there are times when I wish we had a little more. Today we went food shopping together and, despite my protests. came home with 5 bags of chips, 4 trays of sushi, 3 packages of cookies, 2 pounds each of nuts and carrots and 2 tubs of hummus.  Did I mention the drinks?

There comes a time when we all have to learn to live life in the moment. If we live in the past we'll never truly move forward and if we only live for the future we'll never notice the joy that surrounds us in the present.

Absolutely exhausted.

Called out of work yesterday.

Went to Applebee's for Patty's birthday.

Got some ice cream.

Had an amazing time at prom with my perfect boyfriend.

Spent the night at his house.

Now I have to go to work today.

I HATE MCDONALD'S.

It was actually pretty fun.

Prom wasn't as horrible as I thought it was going to be. ​

So I write another letter and I take another drive
Hoping I might find you out there or something in between
And maybe this time I won't reach you maybe this time I won't see
But I'm alright just knowing I'm one step closer to your door

Prom was awesome, I danced lots and drank a whole lot of PEPSI. I really really like to dance a lot, I'm not sure if I'm any good at it or not, I think I might be, you never can tell though... I don't really care if I am though, I like to anyway. Sam is a terrible dancer, really really bad... but I've never minded because he's a good sport and he always dances with me anyway and he isn't afraid of looking silly doing it. :D We went to Sam's after prom and that was really fun, I didn't go to sleep till about 3. He made me breakfast at 7:30 this morning and then I had to leave to go to work... I've been working since 8:00 this morning until about a half hour ago... I'm about to go back to work too in another half hour... needless to say I'm exhausted. Yesterday and today just kind of blurred together. Tomorrow I'll be working all day too, but that will be more relaxed, I'm just selling stuff at this stupid flea market... it was my moms idea haha. Anyway... I dunno when I'm gonna do the rest of my homework...

So I've really been hating this horrible weather. I hate humidity and rain. However, this picture of it is really cool. Still though, seriously, please be sunny again!
