j2227 Finally up and running! - Subscribe
I've been working on this for two days in webpage class and now I've finally finished this site. Pretty cool, huh? No more xanga. No dumb myspace. No livejournal tampering. But oh my goodness...the site looks terrible in Safari and Firefox. =( I guess that's what I get for working with Macromedia Homesite. I'll have to make a whole new stylesheet this weekend.

Today it is Thursday and I am quite exuberant. I woke up at the usual 7:30 and caught the latest bus to school. I hurried and did my English homework in 5 minutes just enough to get it turned in. Government was sooo boring today that I nearly just fell asleep since it was a repeat of everything we've learned this week. However, we have a sub tomorrow so no homework! Woot! During 3rd period, I finished reading the whole book The Color of Water. I guess after reading four chapters every time I was bored (e.g. at In & Out, on days off, after school, or on the bus) I finished it quicker than anyone. It wasn't a bad book at all. I kinda liked it.

This evening I thought I'd just stay up typing "The Janitors." That's a book I'm working on and I can only work when it's dead silent. I'll elaborate about it when I'm close to completion.

So much volunteering and studying now a days! I can't believe I'm so busy. My calendar is full up to the end of November, well except for Fridays and Saturdays. Those still need to be filled, hehe. Then again, rest is needed.

This week: birthday party on saturday, volunteer work on sunday.

j2227 Since I'm back in class, Monday, Oct 23rd - Subscribe
I decided to work on this once more. I'm devouring oreos while I type. Once I'm finished working on this, I'll post up a notification, of course. Oh dear, class is starting...

Today was a big day again. I had to sell candy and stuffs at lunch to the whole school. Total disaster! Not only did my class raise the price of chips 25 cents (so now it was 75 cents), me and my friend Xochitl couldn't do math, haha, so we were like giving everyone the wrong change and everything. Everybody was complaining so we changed the price spontaneously back to 50 cents. "Refund! I want my quarter back!" Ten, twenty kids just crowding and surrounding our little stand thingy. Money everywhere, spilling on the floor. What a day...

After that, I was pretty mad for the rest of the day. I slammed all the doors in the school. However, during after school tutoring (I tutor 7th graders in math) I was pretty nice, I think. Now tomorrow I have an interview to get to. Pretty far from my house, but anything for a car!! :)

j2227 Another day lingers on... Wednesday, Oct 25th - Subscribe
Todays we got our senior shirts from school. They're pretty okay. I wish they were white though. They're this dull gray, which I don't really like. I missed first period AND second period today, cause I thought my clock said 7:30, but in reality it said 8:30, so I'm going along all morning getting ready, then my sister's like "Oh, you didn't have first period this morning?" "What do you mean? It's only 7:40" I responded. "It's 8:40"...oh sh...... then the bus didn't come for another half an hour so, yeah..

Moving on, since it is Wednesday, I stayed after school and helped tutor 7th graders in math. I wasn't really bored, but it wasn't fun just sitting in silence. Kids don't speak up and ask for help. They expect you to help them or think they'll eventually get it, I guess.

After that, I joined the Ping-Pong club, hahaha, just because I saw some guys putting a recently bought ping-pong table together; I'm like "What the hey? I've got nothing better to do." Plus one of my friends is in the class. We just practiced for an hour and a half then I walked home. Thirty minutes later, I have webpage class and that is where I am now until 9PM. It's okay though, cause Mom bought extra extra large pizza :) I can't wait until break to eat it!

Oh btw, I fixed my site for Firefox and Safari now. Just took some very simple tweaking.

j2227 I don't usually do this, Wednesday, Oct 25th - Subscribe
putting up two post in one day, but i thougt I'd write again about how life is going. I'm still looking for employment. I had an interview yesterday, but the stupid manager forgot about it and said he'll be there 9AM on Friday. I'm like "Uh, I've got school...(?)" He still said that's the only time he's there, so forget that.

School is an adventure now a days. I'm trying diligently to make friends with this new kid in 11th grade. He looks cool and is pretty nice. You think I should? I mean I don't want to screw up or anything, plus I might be boring as always. :( Hehe, he hangs around my old 9th grade computer class classmates.

College planning is very stressful for me. I hate putting off looking for scholarships, but I get so thrown off by other tasks. mood: stressed. Well I suppose I should pay attention now in class. Write again later!

at midnight. Why? I'm not too sure. I sort music, but I got done with that at 11. I was talking to someone, but they left about 20 minutes ago. I guess this marks the beginning of the day: in front of a computer.

Yesterday was a complicated day. (yawns) I was really upset that one of my friends left my bag alone in the library for someone to just walk up and take. I mean, I even asked her if she would be around a while and she still left to get lunch. |=| I'm not sure what to think of her now. I mean this isn't the first time she's been like that. Then again, I've been like that a few times too. Sometimes you really don't mean to act a certain way (mean, directly rude, stalking, you name it, haha) but when you try to fix it, it's kinda too late, you know? I'll give her another chance and see if realizes how much that offended me.

Academics have been quite dificult as always. Calculus isn't any fun. In fact I'm quite tired of school in general. I'm not looking forward to going to college right now as I am not prepared at all for the future. I realize my decisions are based on how people move me in different directions (shakes head) even though I constantly tell myself I won't be happy in college unless a: I'm studying something I love, and b: I have close friends around me to hang around with when I'm not stuck in a computer lab somewhere on campus finishing a late assignment. But now I've kinda come to terms that maybe I should lean towards the first rather than the last.

You know the typical scenario: guy gets girl. Guy doesn't want to break up with girl so stays in the city and works instead of going to his dream college elsewhere? I guess I always thought if that happened to me, I'd do the same thing, but now a days, people are just so....wrapped up in their own lives to care about anyone else that maybe I move in my own direction since no one else's direction is working for me =| I've gone through my very crazy days and my obsessive days and my lonely days and days you just wish someone was around to be with you and weary days... (this reminds me of a song) "but when I look around. And I think things over. All of my good days...outway my bad days...and I won't complain." (Rev. Paul Jones. heh, I guess okay music does come from Mom's car radio :P)

I'll of course keep in contact with all my close friends of course: the people that have made me who I am today. If they still want to talk, I've never turned anyone down and I never will (a self principle).

I hope I get a job soon. I really do. I'm a great volunteer and student. I'm tired of not having money. Plus Christmas is around the corner and I gotta buy gifts for family and friends. Hopefully all will go well...I hope :(
