no school today. holler. the show is still on, which is the best scenario possible for today. and this didnt count asa snow day, because we had a "2 hr delay" psshh half days rule. holler wut wut. i have to go to burke at around 11:00 to start setting up for the show. i'm so excited. its going to be so great. boxcar racer: there is. the BEST song ever. i've been so addicted to it yesterday and today. something thats bothering me is that people are stopping writing in their bloggers. i dunno, i guess its different for everyone. i have to write everything down otherwise i feel like i'll forget it, like it'll just be passing experiences. i'm trying to be deep right now but my hands are shakey. i dunno. well, i gotta go get my stuff in order so i can go set up for the play and what not.
mood: excited
music: boxcar racer - there is
do you care if i don't know what to say?

will i shake this off, pretend its all ok,
that theres someone out there who feels just like me?
there is.

What's your Inner European? brought to you by Quizilla
 You are the Marquis Da Sade. Even stripped of exaggerations, Your real life was as dramatic and as tragic as a cautionary tale. Born to an ancient and noble house, you were married (against your wishes) to a middle-class heiress for money, caused scandals with prostitutes and with your sister-in-law, thus enraging your mother-in-law, who had you imprisoned under a lettre de cachet for 14 years until the Revolution freed you. Amphibian, protean, charming, you became a Revolutionary, miraculously escaping the guillotine during the Terror, only to be arrested later for publishing your erotic novels. You spent your final 12 years in the insane asylum at Charenton, where you caused another scandal by directing plays using inmates and professional actors. You died there in 1814, virtually in the arms of your teenage mistress.
You are a revolutionary deviant. I applaud you.

Mood: Very Flustered

i definately wrote an entry last night and it definately didnt post it. wtf? i do not know. so today i stayed after for the tennis meeting, and to correct amy that frame is spelt with an e in it. hoo boy. the one downside of technology right there...spell check. tomorrow after school i'm going to help DG with the yearbook phenomenon. yes, phenomenon. today in the bathroom greg brazjewski enlightened me, for the most amazing bodily function is the urination shiver. that and the warm updrafts from the urine, but whatever. this is so weird, i'm home early today, i don't know what to do. i might do some homework. i started independant study today, and the stuff is schway hard. this sucks so much. whatever, i'll get it done. i get a spanish 4 credit for half the year, so i'm not complaining. and i'll probably just end up doing it on the weekends and playing lendl in yu-gi-oh anyway, so yeah. my next project is going to be learning how to make cool graphics. amy is all about cool graphics, and my website is so plain. theres like, a 3-colour scheme, its not very exciting. i'm the kid who when you offer him a buncha crayons, goes for the brown one. ehh i think i'll just go listen to music and play some PS2 or whatever. adios faithful blogger fans.
i'll be a tad more cliche and do a little "music/mood" thing. that e has a ` over it...if you know how to do that tell me por favor = )

Blogger,
i sat around and did nothing all day, then i had drama from 4-8. now it's 10:00 and i'm simultaneously working on two essays and this entry at once. i'm done with my candy one, which is one of the best things i've ever written i think. i'm officially out of spanish as of tomorrow. helloooo independant study. = ). now, just for Joe Marino, here is my Comparison essay of Skittles vs. Kisses.
From their crazy ad campaigns to the psychotic little children they produce, Candy is one of the best things since sliced bread. Trying to imagine a world without little sugary treats to pop into your mouth isn’t pretty. Halloween would be spent eating granola bars, yuck. The little miracle ingredient that makes everyone bug out is Sugar. This miraculous substance is mixed with hundreds of variables to create a wide array of treats, all with their own unique tastes, colors, shapes, and sizes. Each candy is a unique individual, boasting its own style of palate satisfaction. Two of the most popular of these wondrous little smidgens that are at total opposite ends of the Candy Spectrum are Hershey© kisses and Skittles, put out by the Mars© corporation. They have totally different appearances and tastes, but as you’ll see, candy all has the same unique personality.
Skittles represent the wild, colorful end of the Candy Spectrum; in fact, they are their own spectrum. They’re shiny and colorful, with varieties range from basic primary colors to festive Easter pastel colors. Skittles are the more aesthetically pleasing of the two, for when you open a bag you’re hit with a bright variety of colors, a visual mosaic. Hershey© Kisses are the opposite. They are bland and boring, like a rainy day. They’re a flat brown that is about as exciting as a root canal. Kisses are wrapped individually in a silver or gold foil, an elegant overcoat, while skittles come a gross in a bag. Skittles’ quantity most certainly makes up for their poor quality. At least three out of every five skittles are deformed some how, whether it’s a flat bottom or they’re partially melted and fused with another skittle like a Siamese twin. Every Kiss is perfectly formed and wrapped, unlike its rude neighbor, the Skittle, who prefers to go by its graffiti name, SkIzZItLeS.
Not only do Skittles and Kisses differ greatly in their appearances, but they are also quite dissimilar in taste as well. When you pop a handful of Skittles into your mouth, it’s quite an experience. It’s as if a Sugary Strike Team was just airlifted into your mouth, and as it fans out it relentlessly assaults your taste buds, using sugary grenades, which strike your palate in a fruity explosion…but lets not get TOO carried away. They might have rebellious flavors, but nothing too rash. In contrast, Kisses are smooth and silky. Their slightly addicting taste slowly melts on your tongue, pleasantly stimulating your taste buds. Skittles are a thirst quenching, rebellious and loud taste. Kisses are a more reserved, a more refined candy. They are more serene, a high-class taste reserved for only the most prestigious of taste buds.
Although Skittles and Hershey© Kisses may differ greatly in things such as their appearances and tastes, one thing all candy has in common is their sugary personalities. Due to their common sugary nature, all candy has the same personality. Just like people of different cultures, candy has its own unique background. Humans are made up of all the same flesh and blood, just as candy is all the same sugar and starch. Different brands have different outward appearances, just as people from different parts of the world are all different. Skittles and Kisses are like little children, full of sugar to the point that their blood sugar content is over the legal limit. Also, they are like crotchety old men, they grow sour and hardened with age, and nobody wants them anymore.
Next time you go to grab a candy bar off the shelf at your local convenience store, maybe you’ll think differently about which one you select. You’re faced with so many choices, which ones are louder, more colorful, come in a plastic cell phone…the possibilities are endless. But maybe next time, instead of just mindlessly devouring your little treat, you’ll become friends with them, get to know them…then give into the cravings, and mindlessly devour them.
