More About Me...

Theres not really much to know about me. I'm a student I love music, computers, and being with my family. I'm an outgoing person who loves to have fun and enjoys being happy (just like everyone else) and I also enjoy helping others and making others happy or feel better.

Another Tit-Bit

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. ~e.e. cummings, 1955

Slacker

Hmmm. Unfortunately that word has been used to describe me quite often. Until recently I politely giggled and accepted the invitation to be intellectually degraded. Now I sit back and realize... that I truly am a slacker.

Lol how sad....

I Hate the Mall

The titlde really explains it all but in case you weren't in the mood to read the blog title let me reiterate: "I Hate the Mall".

Yes I know I'm one of the few girls who admittedly hate shopping. I personally see no reason to spend hour upon hour searching and sifting through racks of clothes to find that there is nothing there that you want!!

That is not even the only reason that inhate malls, they are also constantly ovr crowded. Does everyone in the mall really need to shop in the same store at the same time!!

There's so much more to this story that I don't even feel like typing...

Sen10ritis


What is it: Sen10ritis is something like a plague, it has several different strands which effect the different classes in different and in different varying strengths. As you can tell by it's strategically spelled name Sen10ritis (spelled intentionally with a 10) the strand currently infecting class of 2010 may very well be the strongest and most abundant strain to infect students to date.

Symptoms: The symptoms of sen10ritis vary from student to student but also has some common traits such as:
1. Accessive absences
2. Constant sleeping during classes
3. Lack of attentiveness no matter the severity of the situation
4. Only excited when reffering to: graduation, sen10r skip days, prom, grad nite/bash, or anything sen10r related.

Of course there are other symptoms but those are far and few compared to the symptoms listed above.

Is it right?

I made no promises, I said nothing that would lead the person to expect anything besides communication and respect. Do little white lies count toward deception? I only said what they wanted to hear, if they wanted the truth all they had to do was read and/or ask... What I did wasn't that bad, it was noncommittal... Right?!?

I never expected more than what was "proposed" in the beginning. What did they expect?

Month after month... nothing, but now I'm back at it again. It's just a game with no winners or losers.

Dumb Moment

So I was planning something for the end of this month, I don't recall what it was but anyways I was counting the days left in February:
"26, 27, 28, 29, 30 or wait is it 31 days in February?!?". Once my initial set confusion was relieved I ackwardly realized there was only 28 days in February...

Lol yeah definitely a dumb moment.

Trust

Sadly enough I have none for anyone. Everything I hear from anyone I mentally begin to question their motives, mean, and probability. It's sad but true.

I don't know why I have trust issues and it's something I've tried to change but I can't.

I know that not trusting anyone will socially hold me back, but what am I to do?

Bored....

I'm bored so I decided to blog. Lol how lame right? Anyways I'm supposed to be learning about the bill of rights, but my teacher and some of the students have gone off into a tangent about something else that has nothing to do with government.

Awkward how the mot important classes can become so off topic so easily.

Update: now we're back on task but now I don't feel like listening.
Update 2: now she's mad that other students aren't on task.

I'm still bored and she's still talking....

Just a Dream

I thought I finally had a goal. What I wanted was already taken... Too late already happy and taken. What to do now, continue to pursue or give up what is/or might be more than a dream?

Update: I feel like crap. It's like I let this person slip through my fingers even though the situation I'm facing now was set in stone prior to us even acknowledging each others existance. It's like I'm falling and at the same time holding myself up, I know that don't make any sense but that's the only way I can explain it.

Talking on the phone

You know I used to think I was the only one who didn't Luke talking on the phone. I mean why talk on the phone when you can text, email, and/or Twitter.

I mean don't get me wrong I like communicating through a more personal form such as one-to-one talking... just not on the phone.

Pros/Cons to Phone Conversations:
1. Noise interference can seriously hinder any enjoyment.
2. Easier to interpret emotions than using any text based communications.
3. More likely to mis-hear the other person as opposed to reading what they wrote.

There's more I just don't feel like typing anything else lol.

Tired....

That's it. I'm done. I'm tired of putting myself down and allowing others to do the same. Regardless of what people know about me or what I ALLOW them to know about me I am somewhat remotely intelligent.

So what my gpa is kind of low, I allowed myself to aim low and settle for less but I never had the intention allowing myself to be continuously put down by others and myself.

There's alot that people don't realize about me, like the fact that I applied to about 9 schools I got into every school I applied and got scholarship offers from 4 of them! I'm not trying to brag or be cocky or anything but people assume because I'm not achieving a 3.0+ then I'm not as intelligent as them. Sadly enough i know people that have a 3.5+ gpas but only got a 16 or 17 on ACT!!!!!!

In my opinion that is unbelievable and unnacceptable. Especially considering how high and mighty they feel with their high gpas, yet they can't even attain high test scores or even average scores on a college readiness test.

I'm just tired of holding back my successes and allowing myself to be put down, but those are the consequences of my actions and I am the only one to blame for my problems. I am very capable of attaining those same grades but I choose to hold myself back and attain subpar grades. But I do not hold myself accountable for the high strung attitudes of my classmates who do attain high gpas but fail to receive even remotely satisfactory scores on a national college readiness test.

As of this moment I refrain from allowing others to treat me as though I am uncapabpe of the same achievements as they are because time and effort has shown that I am just as capable if not more.

Today is a new day, and I shall treat it as such....

Countdown

I can't believe that it's only 2 months and 29 days until graduation. Time is getting soooooo close it's unbelievable, seems like just yesterday I was freshman.

In two months I will be starting a new life and three months after that I'll be headed to Hampton University!!! I have to admit I'll probably miss a few people, but not many...

I'm glad to know that a lot of my friends have goals for after high school and won't just be satisfied with a highschool diploma. I was all excited the other day... I realized I had friends going to school all over Florida, from UF to UCF to USF and maybe even some at FSU!!!

I think that's all I have to say on this subject...
