This is an old layout. It dates back to December. That's when I lost my host.

But this is my favorite layout.

My blog is DEAD.

            It's been a while since I've updated. I'm making a new layout, but I want to add more effects so you probably won't see it until next month.

                My world lit. project has been taking up most of my time. I'm supposed to find 8 version of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice without using the internet as a resource. Not only that, but to also find advertisements that allude to Greek mythology and I need to draw a base version of my myth in comic strip form. As of now, my sleeping hours are from 1 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. That's around 5 hours of sleep. And the project is due this Thursday and I'm not even halfway. T___T; Bummer. I'm so sleeeeeepy~

                Anyway, I'm going to read The Da Vinci Code. I've heard people praise this book that I've decided to actually read it.

            You know that timed essay I had to write last week? Guess what? I got a 61.5 out of 75. Not bad, eh?? And to think, last week I was bummed out. Thanks for all your mental support. Sometimes my ego needs a bit of comfort. lol. The 3 things I forgot to do on my essay were to add the title (lmao!), include textual evidence, and to not exceed the limit of only one page. ^^; Oh, well.

            I need to buy myself some new clothes at Macy's. My sister has been borrowing my clothes and not returning them.

            I despise  Spanish class. I originally wanted to take Japanese instead so I could watch anime and go to Japan. But my parents told me that "Spanish would be more useful because the US is being mixed with Hispanic culture." Everybody in my Spanish class intimidates me. I'm so shy in there that if you're in both my Spanish class and my history class, you'd think I had a split personality. I'm very outgoing in Modern World, while I'm this shy nobody in Spanish class. I'm shy when I feel intimidated, but if everybody else around me is shy, then I take charge.

            Since 2 weeks ago, Naruto has become my favorite anime series. I support Sakura/Sasuke <333 the pairing.

            Yeeeek! I just bought the Usher: Special Edition CD! And it has "My Boo," the duet with Alicia Keys in it! Yay! <33 I'm so happy that I feel like cleaning my room and my house.

            Now to summarize my week, I recently took my World Lit. final, which was to write about a theme in The Human Comedy,  and I think I bummed it. Really, I do. I had to follow these guidelines: present-tense only, no "to be" verbs, no general words (i.e. thing, stuff), use strong verbs, no contractions, no first/second person. It was very hard.. And I was pressured by the stupid clock that kept ticking! Tick, tock... only 5 minutes left... tick, effin' tock! 40 minutes, end of test.

            I'm alive and well after that horrid week full of misery from getting myself food poisoned. I feel ashamed for giving into my cravings. I think I'll punish myself by eating healthy, nasty-looking mystery food from the school cafeteria. Bleeeeegh~ Yuck, yuck, yuck.

            I'm having a problem with clubs... I'm in the anime club right now and all we do is watch anime episodes/movies. Fun, no? Yeah, it IS. But then the computer club is on the same day and I'll learn more from there than from the anime club. I want to join both, but unfortunately I can't be at two places at once. I've got to choose one... T___T; This decision has been bogging me down the past week.

            Oh. God. I feel really horrible right now. I think I got food poisoned by eating really old chocolate raisins that were in my fridge. Hey, I had to satisfy my craving somehow! God knows how many months they've been in there. Two months maybe? My tummy does not feel so good. I think I need to lie down or drink something. I'm out of coffee though, not that it would really help anyway.

            I miss by best friend, Michael. We don't go to the same school anymore. I miss making fun of him and calling him a "man whore" or a "jackass". We'd make these really dirty jokes which I think are funny, but if I try to explain them to other people, they get mad because they think I'm trying to offend them. The thing about Mike is that I can be myself and not worry about hurting his feelings. It's what separates him from my other friends. He's been a really good big brother to me. Like the older brother I never had.

         I'm not the kind of person who likes sympathy. When I cry and people say, "Oh, it's all right." or "Are you okay?" ... I wonder, do they really mean it? Or are they just saying that because they have no idea what I'm going through and that's all they can say? It doesn't help me at all. They pat me, they hug me, but do they really care? Do they truly know what I'm going through? Most likely they don't.

[edit] Simple Plan's "Welcome to My Life" single is the absolute best! I can totally relate to the song. And also Lindsay Lohan's "Rumors" single. I downloaded both on iTunes. Now all I need is an iPod and I'd be deliriously happy. No kidding.  [/edit]           

            Does anyone know what age a person can get a credit card in the US? I really want one. ;]

            I'm handling high school pretty well now. I'm still lacking sleep, but I have enough to keep me energized through the day. As of this week, I've become a coffee addict. Specifically, Starbucks' mocha frappuccinos. Mmm... I know coffee's bad and all, but it really does get you through the day. I've tried substituting coffee with milk, orange juice, and just plain water. Doesn't work... x__x

            Good News! My mom is considering buying me a domain (at last!) IF  I agree to help my sister with her homework―tutoring and stuff like that. I've already got a domain name in mind and I checked it to see if it was available.. and it was! It took me 2 hours to think of it. I won't say the name in case I don't get my domain. I don't want to curse my good luck. =P

        New layout. The image is from Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles. Yup... I finally got rid of my layout-block. Thanks for all your encouragement.

            September 11th. The tragedy that occurred 3 years ago with the destruction of the World Trade Centers. May the victims rest in the peace and may America mourn the loss of such brave people. Whatever happened to karma?

            Yesterday was Freshman Friday! Really idiotic freshmen went into the courtyard when they knew that was where the battleground was. Idiots. I mean, I'm a freshman and I don't go to the courtyard like some. And to think Lowell was filled with smart people. The seniors were throwing eggs and water balloons filled with soda. New technology, I suppose.

            My English teacher is being a real bitch. She made us take notes on 17 chapters in 3 days, along with the rest of the week's homework. Damn. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I hate high school!

            Sorry for not updating for more than a week now. School's been hectic and all, so I didn't have much time. Thanks for all your lovely comments! ;] You people rock! Seriously. I love you guys.

            Ugh. I'm having a layout-block. I can't get inspired to make a layout. I find an image but when I try experimenting with it, it just ends up looking screwy.

        I hate high school. Lowell has been really challenging. I wake up everyday at 5-6 a.m. with barely 6 hours of sleep. I can't take the lack of sleep. The constant loss of sleep had taken its toll on me this morning. My eyelids can barely keep themselves open. God, I'm so sleepy! And I need to go to church tomorrow and buy supplies for my architecture course. Sooo sleepy.... z_z

            The courses I'm taking this semester are as follows:

1: Physical Education 1
2: Architecture 1
3: Spanish 1
4: World Literature 2
5: Algebra 1
6: Modern World 1
