May

Way to dampen the mood...

I think this week has been mediocre. Except I have a sneaking suspicion that my art teacher doesn’t really like me, or at least my table mates.

I’m going volunteer hunting with Ana on Monday. I still need 9 hours before December 7.

I never have anything to say anymore.

I’m attempting NaNoWriMo. It’s a competition where you write one novel, 50,000 words in one month, from Nov. 1-Nov. 30 It’s not going to work out because you’re supposed to write 1600 words per day and I only have like 100 and we’re on day 6 and I can’t write this weekend because I have an English project to finish.

My left foot has been having these terrible spastic cramps all day. It started when I was laying on the couch read my memoir and then it happened three more times within 20 minutes and it stopped. I can feel like it’s about to happen again.

Decade Day

I put together my outfit for decade day. It’s my mom’s old t-shirt and leggings, a headband, side ponytail, and brown sandals. I think it’s the 90s, but I’m not positive. Could be 80s. Instead of a tshirt, I was going to wear a button down that had all these weird map things, like compasses and globes, on it, but my sister vetoed it.

I’m not sure if it violates dress code or not. The shirt isn’t fingertip length, but the leggings are pretty thick. They could pass for sweats, almost. I’ll bring some pants just in case.

I'm pissed.

So stupid. So I few weeks or months or whatever back, I helped a friend get a position in a non-profit as my understudy or assistant or whatever as a website manager. Today the president of the organization sends out a message to everybody and pulls a few people out to give then more specific instructions. The person that’s supposedly my assistant is called out to “get ready for to update the website” and I’m not. Ok. #1 He doesn’t know HTML. Sure the website is running on Wordpress, but some knowledge would be nice. #2 I’ve been with this organization since day 4 or 5 and waiting to start working on this website for about 5 or 6 months. He started a month or two ago. #3 In his time as a web manager, he’s made one Twitter update and half of the 140 character update was about his relationship status. #4 He doesn’t know how to use MySpace. What? How do we expect him to figure out Wordpress if he can’t figure out MySpace?

This is a travesty. I don’t think he knows what an FTP is. It’s ridiculous. And I tried to explain to him how to code a picture and he told me it was too confusing. How is this— confusing?

I regret helping him. I could have handled this by myself.

Isn't a basement still inside a house?

We took a reading check in English today over The Fall of The House of Usher and one of the questions went something like, “What did Roderick Usher want to do with Madeline’s body after she died?” I wrote “keep her in a vault inside the house”. The answer was “keep her in the basement/under the house”. I think I should get my 20 points back, or at least half credit. I’m from a place with no basements. How am I supposed to know that the basement isn’t considered part of the house, rather under the house? I still think a basement is inside a house. It’s in the foundation! That’s inside! It’s like saying an attic isn’t part of a house! Madness.

Anyway, I think tomorrow—technically today—I’m going to go to Razorback Outback Clean Up and see if I can get some NHS hours. I think Mrs. Cummings let people from Jasper and West get volunteer hours back when I was in 8th grade, but they have a new NJHS sponsor. Might as well just go and try because I’ve done 0 out of 15 hours as of now.

My day was crappy. And I can't spell.

Do you ever have those days that you’re not really sure if it’s really terrible or not? That’s how I feel. I don’t know.

I bombed the Chinese quiz. And when I say bombed, I don’t mean what a typical Asian calls “bombing”. cough96cough The quiz had two portions. A 10 question written portion and a speaking part. If both parts are worth 50%, I can’t get above a 60 because I only answered one thing on the written portion. I pretty much suck. I knew the characters the class before, but I forgot them all under the pressure. I should have taken American Sign Language or at least something that actually uses the same alphabet as us.

And what was up with Glee. First of all, SUE!? I missed her normal self. I know she’s going to be back to normal next episode, but that still sucked. But I looved Kurt. :) “Someone take me to a day spa” hehe The Emma thing is totally depressing. There’s like two love squares. Terri-Will-Emma-Ken and Rachel-Puck-Quinn-Fin (and maybe Kurt if you really want) That’s way too much drama. I think they should resolve the teenager one in the next few shows and build up the adult one. It’s more interesting and I love Emma. She’s so cute. I want her and Will to be together, but then I’d feel terrible about Ken. He’s such a sad person. Sweet Carolina was kind of amazing. I think cut Fin as male lead and replace him with Puck. Or Artie because he’s amazing, too.
