Spring Break.

My spring break has been so horrible. I didn't get to do anything fun at all. Thurs-Sunday, I have had to work. The only fun thing I did was go to the movies. This weekend my dad went away to Rhode Island, and I'm stuck home taking care of my grandmother. It's really not fair. I went on a college trip to Bloomsburg University. I really liked it alot. The only thing is, it's 2.5 hours away. I dont want to go that far from home, and I definitly don't want to go to community. I dunno. I gotta get ready to go to work. L8er.

ACT.

Today is the day we take the ACT's. I'm actually getting ready to leave right now. I'm kind of worried about it. I didn't study or anything.I'm just going to take it and hope for the best. I know alot of people aren't going to show up, and thats really sad. I think that this is more important than work or sleeping late, especially if you want to go to college after high school. I dunno. But, hopefully I do well enough. Wish me luck, and i'm wishing everyone else good luck as well. we can do it 2010!

This unbearable school year....

I'm really finding it hard to keep coming to school everyday. I'm so tired of all the work and everything. I can't wait until school is out. Only like 3 months left; thats really the only thing that keeps me coming. Ughh....Tomorrow is Monday. Well, I just have to take one day at a time, and hope for the best. :)

Have you ever....

Have you ever hated someone with such a passion that it hurts?
Have you ever hated someone, and they didn't know you hated them?
Have you ever had to keep that hatred a secret, and pretend like you don't care?
Have you ever had to look in the face of the person you hate, and smile like they're your best friend?
I have. I do. I will.

Random....

Me and James were oh so bored one day. So, we decided to mess around with my camera lol.
(I have a bandaid because I burnt my finger on a frying pan.) LOL

BTW, this stupid video is taking forever to UPLOAD, and its only like 12 seconds long!!

PSSA.......OVER

Thank god it's finally over. I was so tired of it. I'll miss the cookies that Ms.Benjamin brought though. They were good as shit.

PSSA-Day TWO

Well, day two is over. Thank god. This PSSA is really stressing me out. I can't wait until it is over and done with. The math and Reading was basically the same as yesterday. The math was a little harder though, because the constructive response wasn't as easy as yesterday. I know I got one side of it wrong. And I'm not entirely sure about the other.

After PSSA, we take the ACT's. Which is another thing to stress about. I hate 11th grade, Luckily its almost over. Only like 3 1/2 months left!

PSSA- Day ONE.

Well, I'm glad day 1 is over. Only 2 more days to go, which doesn't seem so bad.

MATH:
The math wasn't so hard, I think I got at least 70% correct. Also, the constructed responses were really easy, which surprised me alot. When it said to show work or explain, I did both. But for tomorrows math, I peeked. It doesn't look so easy. It looks alot harder, which has me a bit stressed. I'm really bad at taking math tests, so I'm praying for the best.

READING:
The reading portion, was easy. I was not expecting anything challenging. The reading and writing parts were both easy. I have to admit though, some questions were a little tricky, but I'm confident that I did well.

In Cold Blood.

So, I've been reading this book for class. At first, I really didn't like it much, and I couldn't understand alot of what was going on. Today in class, when Mr.lon had us read some of it in class, I really have a better understanding of how it is written and supposed to be read. I now find it easier to understand and comprehend the writing style. Overall, I really am interested in the book itself. I like it alot, and I want to finish reading it. But, Mr.Nap, I feel like we don't talk about the actual book enough. All we do it talk about certain quotes, but not the actual scenes. In my opinion, I think he should have scheduled some in-class reading, instead of reading every single thing on our own. I can read it fine on my own, but there is alot of confusion in the class, and I think reading some of the book in class, would help them to better appreciate it.


BTW: My myspace, is back online. I've decided to start using it again. So, if I had you as a friend before, add me if you want. But only if your actually going to talk to me on there. Cuz I'm not adding a milllion people i never speak to. My myspace is www.myspace.com/aliesue

So....

Today it was so nice outside. James and I drove down to FDR park, and we were hanging out. It was really relaxing with just the 2 of us. Then we came back to my house, and watched Don't Mess with The Zohan. The movie was kind of funny. But I thought it got boring after a little while. Either way, I had fun spending time with James.

Good News.

I finally PASSED my driver's test! I'm so happy right now. Now I don't have to rely on anyone to take me places or get picked up form work late. I don't have my own car, but my dad will let me use his whenever I need to. I am extra happy. the only down side is that I have work today.But it won't dampen my mood.

Stupid Much?

Have you ever went out of your way for someone else? Let's say something like,trying to learning how to make a food from someone else's culture. I tried making something from a different culture. My family is big on italian food. Spaghetti, Lasagna....things of that nature. I tried making something that bascially revolved around with hispanic seasonings. Well, I made it for James, and it didn't come out perfect. I tried really hard to make it as close to what he's used to as possible. I asked him for help with it, and he said he would after he was done playing this game. So, I had to start making it without him. By the time he was finished the game and came to help, I was done everything. He critized everything that I had made. For example, I put to much water in this thing, and he was like, "Oh that's to much water." I didn't listen to him, because I was mad that he didn't help me in the first place. Then he was talking to his mom on the phone, and was telling her that I tried making it, and that I wouldn't listen to what he said, and that its gonna be all wrong when its done. After all that, I felt really stupid for even trying to make it. When the food was done, I thought I did a good job. It didn't taste exactly like his moms does, but it wasn't to much different in my opinion. I just to need practice with the seasonings and the amount. But I thought it was kind of mean how he called his mom and stuff. I felt like they were making fun of me. But I told him how I felt and he apologized and said he didn't mean to make me feel that way. So I feel a little better now. But I wanted to write about it, and wondered if anyone had ever tried to make something out of their culture, and if yes, how did it come out?

Dude...

I failed my drivers test........ lol

Driver's Test

Today I go to take my drivers test for my Juniors Liscense. I'm really nervous, I hope I don't fail. I always get so worked up and skitz over things like this. What makes it worse, is that alot of my family is coming to watch me. My dad, Two of my brothers, and my sister-in law. It's going to make me so nervous. I only wanted my dad and my brother to come. Now, If I do fail, there all going to be there to make fun of me. Ughh. I'm stressed. Everyone is telling me not to get all nervous and worried about it, because it seems like a big deal, but its really not. Well, I need to do something productive or I'll end up having a mental physcotic outburst. lol

Wish me Luck!

Blogs...

I'm getting really tired of writing these blogs. I know its for a grade, and Mr.Lon likes to be nosey about everyones personal life, but blogs have been so pointless. No one reads them and no one really comments on them....So what is the point of doing it?

3 Day Weekend!!

I am really happy that we have the extra day off. Those PSSA's were so annoyingly frustrating. I am really tired atm, and I have to go to work soon. My new glasses came in, I have to go pick them up before I leave. I'm kinda excited. Well, I'm outtie. Peace.

Mr.Nap

I think Mr.Nap is so adorable....like puppy adorable, or little kid adorable.
His laugh is so funny. I think He's a little boring though.
Like, you can tell he's trying to be like Mr.Lon.
I really think he should just try to be himself, And stop trying to be like him.
It's really kinda annoying at times.
But overall, I think he's ok. But he needs to be a little more firmer.
Like, I see people talking over him, and he'll just look at them and wait until their done.
He needs to get some backbone, or kids will tear him up when he gets his own class.
But I think he might have the potential to be a good teacher.

Snow DAy!

OMG. I was so happy when I found out we had a snow day. I didn't do anything though. I stayed in all day, and then had to work at 5:00. But James came over in the morning, and we spent to day together. We played Call of Duty on Xbox 360, the Nazi Zombies extra on it. It was pretty fun. But he kept getting mad because I kept getting killed lol. Work was EXTREMELY slow. I was standing around basically the whole time, bored. SChool tomorrow, so I gotta hit the sheets. L8er!

Sick Again.....

All this weekend, I've been sick. It started Friday, after school. I just started feeling extra tired and weird. Then, after work, I felt really horrible. When I woke up Saturday morning, omg, I was so sick. I was running a 101.1 fever. I NEVER run a fever. That was the first time I remember having a fever, It was so bad. I was so cold, but then a second later, I was burning up. I feel better today, I've been taking Tylenol and Dayquil and Nyquil. But like every 4 hours, when I have to take it again, I can feel the fever starting to come back. I don't think I'm gonna be in school tomorrow. I still have a bad cough and feel cold all the time. Plus, my throat feels like its on fire. I'm kinda stressed though, because I didn't do Mr.Lon's essay. I didn't have any time to do it during the week, because I had 2 essays of Kasper that needed to be finished, and then I had to work, Thursday and Friday. I planned to do it over the weekend, but I got sick. Its really stressful now. I have alot to worry about.....school, work, and my grandma is in the hospital. I go to school, come home, eat, then go to work (thts twice a week), and work until 9:00, come home and go to sleep. Every other night, I go to school, come home, eat dinner, then go to the hospital to see my grandma. Days where I don't do that, I spend time with James, or am home trying to catch up with school work. And people wonder why I have no social life lol.

Today's Teenage Women

When I look at other girls my age, it sometimes sickens me. I don't understand how women can walk around looking like straight up whores.

Why do women feel the need to have their breasts hanging out? Or to show as much skin as they possibly can? Girls want to look good, but what they need to understand is that you don't need to show everything to look "sexy". I think girls just want the attention from guys. But, why would you feel the need to dress like that? A man who looks at you, or calls you out on the street, all he's looking at is your body. They don't care about anything else about you. A guy will say whatever he can to get some ass, and thats the cold hard truth. The sad thing is, all these girls now its true, but they refuse to believe it. Today, the only way a woman can feel beautiful is when a man tells her she is. They won't see beauty in themselves, so they try hard to get other people to think so. They want people to tell them their pretty, so they can feel better about themselves. Is that an Independent Woman? Girls will say left and right, how independent they are, but constantly seek a man to tell them they look good, even if it's only to get in their pants. The majority of girls in this generation, are disgraceful.

All these young girls end up getting raped because of how they look. Little ass 10 year olds, walk around looking like sluts. No wonder they get kidnapped and raped and murdered. People are always blaming other people for these tragedys. Well, maybe if your kid didnt dress and act like a whore, that rapist wouldnt have felt the need to pursue her.

I am seriously grateful, that I was not raised around women, and have no sisters. I'll wear what I want, regardless of whether someone else likes it or not. I don't feel the need to show everything on my body to get men to notice me. I need no man to boost my confidence or make me feel good about myself. The strongest woman are the ones who can feel beautiful without a man telling her so, and the ones who can live their lives on their own, needing help from no one. That is an independent woman.

- Oh and I know all guys aren't like that, because my boyfriend certainly isn't. But majority of them are, especially the ones around our age(IMO).

Another Lyric Blogg.

Linkin Park-Leave Out All the Rest

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you're asking me
I want you to know

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
[End Chorus]

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

[Chorus]
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory

Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting
All the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well

Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are

I really like this song. It's kinda what Mr.Lon was talking about. How when we die, what will we leave behind? will we be forgotten?

Deleted Myspace.

Everyone who's had Myspace, who was my friend, will probably notice that mine is gone. I just got really tired of it. I never was really on it, or commented anyone. Myspace is just so overrated now, it seriously is. I've had so much drama through and over myspace, It's unbelievable. The only negative thing about deleting it, is that alot of people contacted me through it for school and stuff. But my soulution to that problem, is simple. My blog is just like Myspace. Anyone who needs to contact me abotu school work or anything, can just comment to my most recent blog, and I'll be able to post back.

So True.

What will happen will happen, and I won't waste the time I have above ground worrying. Misfortune always comes to those who wait. The trick is to find happiness in the brief gaps between disasters.

The Life of a Working Student.

My future means alot to me. I don't understand how people can just cut school, or all together not come. How do these people expect to make it in their lives, without a highschool education? I get overwhelmed sometimes, because of going to school, and having a part time job. After school, all I want to do is go home and sleep, or just relax. But lots of times, I have work, or I have other things I need to do. But I know the importance of doing what I do. While all my friends are out there, having fun and being teenagers, I feel like I'm preparing for my adulthood. I don't feel like a teenager anymore, honestly.I feel like I've started my adult life already, and theres no turning back. Since I have a job now, I'm going to be expected to work. I was thinking, and this summer will be the last summer of our highschool lives. Next summer we'll be out of school, in the real world. This summer, while everyone is buggin out and having fun, I'll be stuck behind a register, dealing with asshole people all day long.My dad says its good for me. That I'm working and going to school at the same time. He says its giving me a head start into a life on my own. Not to mention, learing the value of a dollar. I feel like I'm growing up to fast. Everyone has such high expectations of me, and I'm afraid to let them down. I'm not expected to make adolescent mistakes. But sometimes, I wish I would.

Wondeful.

Did you ever look up to someone in a way, and have them let you down? Well, that's kind of what happened. I had so much respect for someone, and now, its like, I was so disappointed by that persons actions. If you don't have any expectations for people, then you can't get let down, I'll remember that from now on.

My little piece of bliss, that consists of Family

These past couple of days have been great. I've never been more happy, and at ease with my life. Everything has been so easy-going and laidback. I feel so alive, so rejuvenated. I got to hang out with my family and James. It's been great. On Tuesday, I took my 7 year old niece to the movies to see Bedtime Stories. She really enjoyed herself. I don't see her that much, so it was nice to spend some time with her. I try to see her as much as I can, but its hard because my brother and her mom, aren't together, so they have a special custody agreement. In summer, she lives with my brother, but during the school year, she lives with her mom. She calls me her favorite aunt, because I let her do whatever she wants. lol. I spoil her, and her brother, who is my godson. My niece loves to write me letters, and I like to chew on straws(lol). She wrote me this letter last spring. I thought it was cute.

Serendipity.......

Serendipity-an aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident.

I like this word. It sounds cool. I think.
