The Best Children In The World

My cousins Nasha and Anthony have grown up together since I could remember. They have been through so much but they still smile. I always considered Anthony my personal body guard, because to date, he is 6"2 and about 220lbs and its crazy watching him grow up. Everything that I do when we are around each other is like be careful or wait I'm gonna just carry you. Its craziness.  Nasha is sweet but dangerous. I remember this one time she was telling me about the time she was planting some flowers in a garden. When she stood up a frog was in the way so she decided to kick it out her way against the wall. When she told me this, she was so nonchalant it had me on the floor cracking up. Having cousins that you know love you unconditionally keeps you going.

-_-

yesterday I had an interview with Arcadia. Hopefully I did well. Well I hope so.
Any who, I always forget to post to the blogger, BUT then I write my posts in a word document.

I have a meeting with some dude about my capstone today, hopefully that goes well.

I got denied from American University *womp.

I DIDN'T WANT TO GO ANYWAY! #$%^ THAT SCHOOL.

It's just one of those days -_-

I'm so tired.

I am really curious as to know what I got on my math benchmark. I think I did well on it.
I absolutely love when people bitch and complain about absolutely everything they can possibly think of.

You're boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boy-boyfriend.
I love Big Time Rush. They're adorable.

I keep coughing.

Our first softball game is today and I am so excited. (:
I can't wait, yay. We're playing Randolph on our home field (@Lemon Hill) come out and see us!

I hate when you're texting someone and they just stop answering.

Tedious Work

Well, its a Thursday and despite having to go through roughly 8 hours of school work, I still have to go to my regular job which is working in a nice little local pharmacy. Its nice if your the customer at least. I got to clean the whole bathroom today, it was definitely a change in pace from doing other janitorial duties like vacuuming the whole store or cleaning all the soda fridges and stocking them up. It was not however a good change of pace. I dont have much things that I am grossed out by, but cleaning a toilet which has not been cleaned for roughly half a year is not something on my convenient to-do list. Horrible busy day.

10:38

E: Feel like coffee in an hour?
R: I just got into my pjs, but sure. only, where would we get coffee from?
E: Um actually sorry no. I just got in and I feel dead
R: I hate you haha, bi polar. tomorrow?
E: I think so
R: Plan on it, no lame excuses

It's Always Something

If it's not me being on time to school. It's my grades in school.
If it's not me cleaning. It's me not cleaning good enough.
If it's me not going out. It's me going out too much.
If it's me not talking to you. It's me talking back to you.

No matter what I do it will always be something. Will anything I ever do be good enough?

I hate You

​I hate you
You locked me out
I hate you
You made me cry
I hate you
You chose her
I hate You
You forgot me
I hate You
You missed my birthdays
I hate You
I'm growing up
I hate You
I'm graduating
I hate You
I turned 18
I hate You
I drive now
I hate You
I'm still alive
I hate You
You'll always love me
I hate You
I'm nothing to You
I hate You
She's nothing to me
I hate You
You pushed me away
I hate You
I'm going away
I hate You
You'll never see me again
I hate You
You missed out on it all
I hate You
Your loss not mine
I hate You

Kim's Full Body

Like many of the other projects done in my senior art class, this was my first time ever drawling a full body. The process was actually kind of fun. Everyone in the class drew her body from a different angle.

Considering I haven't established my own unique style, I approach this drawling by putting down in a way I think depicts reality normally. Drawling big seemed to be something I am better at doing. Especially when working with charcoal, getting to work with a big space seemed to be better for a beginner in art. Even more, outlining Kim's body was pretty easy. Drawling her face and creating the visual of the material of her clothes however, was not that easy. Again I practice "pushing and pulling" in this process.

All in all, it was a great experience to have taken part in. Practicing with a real life model is definitely something I would consider doing again.

i dont have much to say now.

you would figure after doing good on a MATH test ,  getting to school early, catching up on all of your missing assignments  you would feel great about the day
but then i go to view my grades and they read

49-math
10- urban ecology
70- drama
who knows what - digvid
who knows what- 21st century economics
64-chase

its official , i hate my life.

Excited

I can’t believe we have only two more months left until school is over. I can’t wait because I’ll finally be able to take a long break and won’t have to worry about waking up early in the morning and most of all we wont have to catch three things just to get to school every morning. I’m also excited for starting my new life in college.

 

What's Left

I have been wondering what is left to look for
I seem to be messing up in life
I'm not doing good in school
I seem to love to draw instead of listen to the teachers in school
I hardly eat breakfast
And just a bit for lunch
I don't know how to be respectful
And it seems to like I don't deserve any respect either
I keep messing up
And my grades aren't getting any better
So tell me everyone
What's left to life?

Time for a new computer

This morning, as I lazily ate my breakfast, my dad asked me what time I needed to leave in order to catch my bus.

"15 minuets before 9:50," I said. "So 9:35."

"9:50? I thought you said 9:15. I have a meeting at 10:00.  We're going to have to leave a lot sooner."

I headed upstairs, with a little more pep than I had before.  While I was brushing my teeth, I realized I hadn't printed out my ticket conformation.  With my toothbrush still in my mouth, I rushed downstairs and began loading Gmail on my dad's decade-old computer.  Once I pulled up the email, I asked my dad to print it; I haven't used Windows in four years.  He said he would, and I ran back up the stairs, doing my best to not make him late to his meeting. 

At 8:55, I returned, ready to get in the car.  There was only one problem: the computer had frozen and had to be restarted.  When it finally powered back up and printed the document at 9:10, I realized we were out of ink.  

"Let's just go, Dad.  It's fine. I don't really have anymore time to spend. "

He didn't reply and I sat in silence for another five minutes. When we pulled up to 30th St. Station, without a printed confirmation, I was able to show the attendant my handwritten number.  

Long story short: don't waste time fussing with an old computer; Megabus doesn't need printed confirmations anyway.
