Self Inflicted Stress.
(*head down, slowly walking away) haha I am so Dramatic.

Time vs. Life
I need a break from my life.
Just a little one.
I have time for nothing anymore.
I don't have a computer and I have so much work I need to stay on track with.
I currently have a headache.
I really don't understand anything that is happening in Globalization class (benchmark that is) I mean I get it but I need a better example.
Do we have a benchmark for chase? Or is this paper thing the benchmark?
I need a nap.
So... We're still here..
My dad's friend who honestly believed that the world was going to end, who is now located at friends hospital for his crazy behavior left my father three voicemails.
1st. "Hi Danny, We have about a week left, I hope you get yourself together so we can both go, but as of now.. I hope you come see me, I took off of work, might as well relax at home. Call me."
2nd. "Danny, you haven't called me back, There is only two days left, I really hope you come see me. My wife keeps calling me crazy... I just want her to be saved. I'm so nervous. Call me back Danny."
3rd. (sobbing) It's past six and I'm still here, (sobbing harder) I got left behind danny... I don't know what to do... My wife left she wont let my son come see me, the only person who came to say goodbye was my daughter and grandson.. YOu didn't even come danny. But.. I guess there's nothing I can do... I got left behind (crying.)"
.... He seems suicidal to me.
Prooommmm
It's raining.
I don't feel good.
I have way too much to do.
I'm sleep deprived.
I had a great breakfast.
Roberto is orange.
I can't wait for tonight.
I hope everything goes well.
I need batteries for my camera.
I gotta get a pedicure.
getting on it.
Life is too short.
I have have been doing allot of thinking lately and Life really is too short. It is but it's not.
There is just so much to do and so much that needs to be done and so many things to experience and places to see that the reality of never being able to see it all is unsettling.
It just seems impossible for some people to be completely happy.
I'm not really sure how I feel lately, I think it's numb. Just wanting to leave high school and move forward in life, but even that.. It's not something I'm actually excited about.
I don't really know what I'm talking about..
But above all things I am happy. Despite all things I am happy.
I really am blessed.
God is good all the time, and all the time God is good.
He is the only reason happiness exists.
Tuesday- May 17th 20011
Doing work.
On a tuesday that we have off on.
I guess you really gotta do what you gotta do.
Feeling good surprisingly.
Life is a highway, I wanna ride it all night longgg... But not with these gas prices.. haha :I
A day in the life of.
My life wouldn't compare at all to that of a 12 year old i Haiti when I was 12. The only comparison would have to be when I was about 11 living in puerto Rico, I did experience being in an earthquake, the house didn't fly away or anything, but that fear of not knowing whats going to happen and being completely out of control and helpless is something I know those people in general had to of felt at some point.
This 12 year old girl who lived threw one of the worst earthquakes in history will grow up watching the "re-birth" of a new nation. She will only have barely finished the seventh grade because of the country's shortages in educational supplies and qualified teachers. She will have a routine lifestyle that would seem impossible for me and soon marry and have children. They will grow up in a better environment then she did because of the changes over the years and be at a higher chance of a good education and stable job opportunities.
six word story
Patty Waddy
Patricia has allot of issues she needs to settle. I think that allot of the problems stem from home. She is extremely hostile and for a reason that is beyond my knowledge she LOVES to pic out imperfections from everyone around her; I think it's a counter jealousy affect.
at the moment she is writing something called, "please don't be mad if you don't see Katherine at graduation"
Truth is she is just mad that although things stand in my way from not always being in school everyday all my work is done and I can always pull my grade off.
She is currently wearing beige knee high boots; a lime green pair of sweat pants and a purple adida's zip up jacket/ sweater thing that is zipped all the way to her neck... what lies underneath is UNKNOWN. She is sporting pined up "curls" and a $22 dark tan bag she bought from the thrift store. Most likely along with the rest of her outfit. OBViOuSLY something is wrong.
Sad.

Wow. I haven't been able to post in so long. I have been home and in and out of the doctors office. Apparently I have an exceptionally weak immune system. My brother has a bacteria in his stomach and I think he got me sick with whatever it was. I r now. I feel better now but these next few weeks will be so overwhelming with making up work and benchmarks and my new job. I can't wait until the worst is over and I can just sit back and relax. I need to get myself together. Thank God Mr. Chase is letting me post!

Fake Behind Snow Day
I woke up yesterday extra early in the morning to get ready and to make it on time ( I had saturday school this week; I was not trying to be late) I was fully dressed and ready to go to school. While I'm heading out my little brother starts complaining about how there is snow on the ground and he didn't want to go to school. I start to argue with him until he finally makes e go on FaceBook to check if anyone else was going to school. (It's a shame really that I didn't just turn the news on.) None the less I pull out my laptop and at seven in the morning there is a never ending feed flow from SLAers in particular; some happy and upset about there not being school. I was a it discouraged because I had put so much effort into getting ready that particular day; But i put on my PJ's and sat on my couch.
Jerry Springer: Based on Antigone
Script:
Entrance:
Guest is sitting on stage in a chair; audience applauding and yelling “Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!”
Jerry: Hello everyone! Lets welcome today’s guest Paul. (audience applauds)
Paul is here because he has two shocking secret to revile to his two sisters Antiqua and Isabella.
Paul.. what’s up? What is the shocking secret?
Paul: Well Jerry, let me start off by saying that i love my sisters to death, and I would never do anything to intentionally or deliberately hurt them. My “mother” and I were going to tell them together but she passed away a few days ago. I know it may seem too sudden to tell them this big secret.. It’s more like a confession really.. But I’m here to tell my sisters that not only am I their brother, I’m also their biological father.
(audience screaming “ohhhhhh”)
Jerry:WOW! So.. explain this, how I mean I know how (audience laughs) but no seriously, this is big stuff.. When did you and your mom.. start.. you know..
Paul: Jerry; I know how it sounds.. But it just happened I didn’t know she was my mom when I got with her. I don’t expect anyone to understand but it wasn’t intentional, I would never intentionally sleep with my own mother, i mean really come on how does that sound...
Jerry: Well how does what your telling me sound.. ( audience laughs)
Well Paul your sisters are backstage, so they heard everything you just said.
Everyone welcome Paul’s sisters, Antiqua and Isabella!
(audience cheers)
Entrance:
Antiqua comes in yelling and screaming obvious dissatisfied with the information she just heard; Isabella follows behind her more collected and understanding.
Antiqua: What the Fuck is going on!!!? When did this happen!? Like, what is this! MOM! mom though Paul your nasty Ugh this is crazy!
Isabella: Antiqua relax, let him talk..
Antiqua: Let him talk!? He said enough did you not just hear what I heard? All these years we haven’t had a father and now Paul our Brother wanna tell us some shit like this No!
Paul: Ann I’m sorry! Just let me try to explain myself, it’s not what it sounds like.
*trying to reach for her shoulder
Antiqua: What could you possibly say to make this any less disgusting!? Are you my brother or my father!? Only one, you can only be one Paul! oh my God!!!
Paul: I didn't tell you guys because I myself didn't know that she and I was related, let along mother and son.
Antiqua: You know what I really don’t care if you knew or not! The point is you have known for so long and you kept it from me! from us! NO It’s unacceptable! And on top of everything you embarrassing me in on national Tv! I’m done! I don’t wanna be part of this! None of it!
Isabella: Paul; please try to explain yourself, I can see where your coming from Ann but really we need to know the truth so Paul go ahead..
Paul: Please just hear me out I just found out recently right before my wife/mom committed suicide.
Jerry: So let me get this straight, you saying that, you are their brother and their father, and you were going to tell them with your mom slash wife then she committed suicide?
Wow this might be more then the Jerry show can handle (audience laughs)..
Why didn’t you both tell them earlier, why now?
Paul: Jerry they need a father figure in their lives, since my wife/mom dies they have been depressed and I think i need to step up and be more for them, they deserve it.
I just want to clarify to them that I didn’t do this knowingly, I would have tried to avoid it by all means if i knew. Sometimes you just find yourself in irreversible situations that you have no choice but to accept and embrace as a part of life.
Jerry: Isabella; you seem really quiet over there, what’s on your mind, whats your take on this situation?
Isabella: Jerry I really don’t know what to think. Obviously I’m not pleased with what I am finding out but I’m not going to be mad at it forever, like Paul said sometimes we just have to accept and embrace irreversible situations as a part of life..I just see it as I already lost my mother. I won’t loose another family member.
Antiqua: Are you kidding me Isabella!? He slept with our mother! They both lied to us! It’s-
Paul: Actually mom didn’t know I was her son.... *tearing up
please forgive me
* taking a breather turning away
Jerry: Paul what else do you need to tell your family?
Paul: Ann, Isabella, Let me just tell you the full story, try to understand and just hear me out; when I was born I was given away because of a curse that was put on my mother while she was pregnant with me. It was said that I would kill my father and marry my own mother. I heard about it later while I was living with my new family.. I tried to run away so that it wouldn’t come true. I ended up running away to my real family instead, and without knowing the curse was fulfilled..
Antiqua: That sounds like such Bull shit! How do you expect anyone to believe that!?
And that still does not explain how mom didn’t know!
Paul: That’s why she killed herself OK!! *crying
She killed herself when she found out I was her son!
Ann you have to believe that we would never do this knowingly!
I just wanted to come clean so that it was out in the open, I really want to be more then a brother to you girls or at least let you both know that I’m always going to be here for the both of you regardless of what happens.
Antiqua: You know what, I don’t even know what to make of any of this... I’m so hurt, I feel so deceived and lied to; point is I don’t think there is an explanation in the world to justify what happened. I mean I heard his story but I can’t accept this. I really can’t it’s just wrong and I wont have it. I don’t want to be part of this family, I’m don’t with him and her, she knows what happened she hears what he is saying and is still okay with it.
Isabella: Ann you can think what you want but I think he’s telling the truth. And everyone deserves a second chance, you can go your way and think what you want, but I’m okay with Paul being my brother and my dad.
Jerry: Well it’s almost time to end this episode is there anything you want to tell your sisters before we go?
Paul: I guess i lost a sister and gained a daughter today. I’m just glad the truth is out and they both know. I love them regardless of anything.
Jerry: That concludes today’s episode of; “ The division between daddy and daughter!
Jerry’s Final Thought:
As we conclude this segment, we should all keep in mind that the unexpected is to be expected. Sometimes things happen that are out of your control that you can either accept or reject; but none the less you have a choice. We realize there are different types of people in the world and some people are unchangeable. They believe in one thing and stick to it; even if it means sacrificing those they love. Others go through life forgiving and forgetting, moving on from a lie or their past and simply moving forward. What we have encountered today was something that could have innocently happened to anyone of us, so don’t be so quick to judge and just think, “what if it happened to me?”
Tune in tomorrow for “My sister is a He!” thank you all and goodnight!
Picture Story: Robots (Saturday)
He decided one day he would be bold and daring and build something! Something unlike anything anyone else had done. He invented the PadOmeter!
What this invention did was flung in a projectile manner sanitation napkins onto lockers. It became a new sport!
He would look at himself in the mirror and tell himself he was a genius.
But one day he took a really close look and discovered he was nothing but a joke!
He walked out of the big door that said, "EXIT" and was never seen again.
Today.

Kevin Kevin Kevin (Wednesday)
" I remember one time I really didn't feel like going to school and mom specifically told me I had to go this day and I decided to be stubborn and just stay. So I decide I'm just gonna stay in my room until she goes to work. Well and hour passes, past the time she was supposed to leave and I start to get nervous. ohhhh my God, Kat, she called out! The one day I decide to stay home is the one day she wants to call off. So I'm thinking to myself it's cool, she never checks my room anyways so i'l be fine. But then I hear her walking in the hallway, to the bathroom and to her room and downstairs to her room; she just wouldn't stay still, and every time I heard her walk someone i was so scared (LOL). The messed up part was not that I got caught it's how I got caught and in which moment. ok, so, as I'm hiding out, feeling like Ann Frank in the Attic, trying not to make any noise I suddenly have to pee! I tried to hide it as long as I could and I peeked outside of my door and she has both her room door and th bathroom door open, so it was automatically not an option to try and use the bathroom without being caught. It was too risky... Kat.. don't judge me. I really! Really! Really! had to go.. So i found a bottle in my room and used it if u know what i mean! :( .. literally a minute later all I hear is my scream, "KEVIN get down here!".. I forgot my book-bag downstairs. smh

My Little/ Big Brother (Monday)
Story Telling.. Literally
My dad had a room filled with fibers (to fill pillows and make blankets.) And non of us ( him and his three brothers and one sister) were allowed to go in there. And my dad bought us a cat, and each of us had the responsibility to take care of her per week. So it was my week to watch her and after about two days I got tiered of doing it. I decided to just put her in the fiber room so I could go out and play with my friends. Before I knew it a few hours turned into a couple of days and we all figured the cat had ran away. I forgot all about her. The twist was one day my dad woke up because we kept hearing crazy screeching noises from the fiber room. My dad woke us up at like one in the morning and went down to the street to the church, and I remember this so clearly because the pastor was walking up the street with a gun! (LOL) My dad lead him into the house and towards the fiber room and at the moment I remembered the cat was in there! The pastor opened the door; gun pointed inside the room and before he could do anything the cat jumped on his and started scratching and going crazy! We were all laughing so hard, I will never forget that."
Friendship. (Saturday's Story)
We've been friends since the seventh grade and despite going to different high schools, we've still been think as thieves, a phrase which with us means, spending countless hours laughing over nothing and talking about everything. Remember when we watched sister act and the old nun said, "I can drive anything on wheels, is that a problem" And we laughed the rest of that night and still laugh about it today, Now whenever we joke about anything, no matter how irrelevant, you always say,"you know what my niggs, don't try and play me cause I can drive anything on wheels, it just better not be a problem"
Inspiration
Monopoly
Kevin: I don't feel like it kat.
Me: PLease I really wanna play!
Kevin: eww that's what she said.
Me:come on kevin, for real... Lets play man.
Kevin: I'm really tiered of loosing Kat, like the game god's hate me, I never get to pass Go, I always get sent to jail, I never collect Free Parking money I only end up buying the ghetto spots on the board and Im always first to be bankrupt, I really can not emotionally take it anymore.
Me:.... so no..?
Keving: No.

The World is Out to Get Me
As if on cue, every single time I step on to the platform of the Frank ford-Market line train, something wrong must happen to me. I get on the train, already prepared for the worst mind you, and I see an available seat. I nonchalantly look around to make sure there is no one else around me or eyeing the seat, and when I realize the coast is clear I make my move. It's about seven forty in the AM and I got some hot chocolate on my way to the El, which had already spilled on my tan jacked, which was absolutely lovely(sarcasm). So I'm walking toward the chair, my drink at hand and when I sit I realize the chair is abnormally moist. As if everyone on the train knew exactly what was going on and what was on the chair, when I looked up; I had about twenty two eyeballs staring at me. I ignored them at first but they just kept glancing back at me like they all had ticks in their necks, and then the seat began to feel strangely wet. Then I realized at the moisture of the still unknown liquid soaked threw my jeans that these heartless rude people where waiting for a reaction from me. I was so embarrassed first off because no one had the common courtesy to let me know before I sat down that there was something on the seat, and secondly because not only did I not see anything when I did check the seat but I had no idea what it was. As I hoped that death would somehow strike me now, I realized my stop was approaching and I agonized even more. I got up with disgust and very nervously turned around to look at my backside and to my surprise it was just water. But it doesn't end there, I had my book bag on the seat next to me and somehow there was urine on that seat! I literally gaged out loud at the smell! The first thing that came to mind was how the heck did I not smell it before that point, and I realized it was because I was drinking my hot chocolate and that must have blocked the smell, but i could have cried when i got up and walked towards the door and saw a hobo with soaked wet pants and an empty water bottle hanging from his oversized coat. I felt both pity and disgust as everything started to make sense. But I got off the train surprisingly not as upset as I thought I would be, mainly because I knew how everything had happened, and it wasn't just something crazily impossible that usually would only happen to me. But it was gross.
