I haven't left the house all day except once to go to the store with my mother. I've been constantly drifting btwn sleep and vague awareness... I absolutely could not stay concious. I've been wandring around my house as people called me or something but I kept falling asleep or just getting sidetracked with something little. For example I was standing in my front yard because the weather is so beautiful and I saw a feather so I started to follow it and I was just sort of slowly turning and walking around my yard with this feather. It probably looked like I was doing some strange slow motion dance. I hope Ididn't look crazy though. Someone I know drove by so I was sort of jolted out of it and hurried back inside. I want to go out... Oh and my mom said that some people called but she didn't say who, so sorry guys. And she also said "that guy who didn't want a ride" (she never remembers his name) was wandering around... Goodness.Friday, October 18, 2002

Tomorrow is the last day of WASI haven't seen ANY anime since July I think. I have no acess right now. I should be suffering withdrawl, but I don't have time. I went to Pollworker training and I created a hanging chad! It was funny. Ok maybe it wasn't, but I was tired.
I finally found the IFilm I'd been looking for since june! I was convinced It didn't exist anymore or something. It's called "Editing is Everything" and it's about a group writing and marketing the bible. While you're at it, watch "In Front of Her". IFilm shorts are wonderful.

Je dois étudier mon français. Malheureusement quand mon professeur me dit que je dois étudier, Je deviens défensif et étudie moins. Les personnes français stupides. Si mes amis me dit en français tout le temps- Je deviendrai fou. Ah bah... La vie est très dure en ce moment... J'ai stoppé.Monday, October 14, 2002
Ok. It's about 11 o'clock. I still haven't really started my hw. Right now the sole purpose of posting it to avoid doing my hw. I have an Econ packet to do (due tomorrow), an AP Gov essay (Due Yesterday), A french essay (sortof but not really due last week), a poem for english mirroring this printout she gave us, and an entire script to write for the renaissance rally(due today). I haven't started on any of it yet. I need sleep. Damn. This bites. Bites... that calls up some interesting mental images. Word etymology is interesting. Particularly (to me right now) "Belle-mere"[stepmother] in french. Isn't that a funny word-study? I should really do my hw! Ciaociao...Oh. My. Goodness. I couldn't believe that Alvin made that remark about getting shot at school! The last thing we need is for the WAS

This is my new blogchalk:United States, California, Duarte, Valley View, English, Greek, Sonya, Female, 16-20, Writing, Sidestreet Music. :)
I don't completely understand this concept... but it seems cool.
Note to self: Reinstall Comments...!! (haloscan.com)
Chalk my blog...
H.D.S.B.F. to you stupid blogger!
Why can't I bypass all this schooling and stuff?? Things would be soo much easier. I think I should decide a definate goal though. I mean, what do I want to end up doing? I really want to teach in a University. I want to publish books. But what would I teach? Creative writing classes seem like a scam. I don't know how well I'd do teaching philosophy. I'd like to teach a behavioral class... I'd want to teach something that had to do with Human behavior, and it's impact on religion or philosophy or something. I have an image of where I want to be at age thirty though. But it's so... conventional seeming.
Do you know what I want? I want to teach a few classes a week in a University in the east. I want to drive with someone to a Cafe to before classes, then take the subway to work. I want to have meaningless society parties. I want meaningful luncheons with friends during a busy day. I want to assign hundred page paper due the next day that are worth 75% of the student's grade, call Lisa, and sit with her in my classroom and laugh at the poor kids who stayed up all night doing it before I tell them I was just kidding and that it was a "Life Lesson". I want to start a Private school for pre-k thru 12 and visit every Friday afternoon for their lunchtime pep rally. I want to sit up late on a Sunday night drinking tea in front of a fireplace in an overstuffed chair correcting papers. I want a house with a big yard, and a Library, and a study. I want a wraparound porch and a swing. I want “callers” to come by Wednesday afternoons and know I’ll be there. I want a formal dining room with various kinds of china, all in complete sets. I want a curio cabinet. I want to go to Europe over the summer and Japan on spring break. I want to marry a Diplomat or someone in international affairs and go to a state dinner. I want to lecture. I want to still have contact with the friends I have now and call them from time to time and see them in the news (I know I will! I just hope it’s for something good…) and be able to say, “I had dinner with him/her last week.” Especially if they’re in need of an alibi… haha. What else? I want two cats (one named Nanette- or maybe Siamese named “Prim” and “Latte”). I want a dog. The kind that will lay down at your feet on a cold night. I want to go to concerts of small bands that no one’s ever heard of. I want my CD rack to have Classical, and Rock, and Swing, and oldies, and not to feel weird about it. I want to be fluent in Greek. I want to be thirty and still wear my 2nd grade tee shirt but keep house in a linen skirt. I want to go on. But I don’t want to bore you any more.
I had expresso ice cream and chocolate covered biscotti. I’m hyper. I still need to do my Gov’t essay. Gosh Darn it… I want to do it all over again, and I want to skip the next ten years.
ELEFTHERI!!! I love them... Yay for Boy Bands. well MY boy bands at least. OMG! DuJour and Elefhtheri are like my total faves, like ya know!? They like, are like, soooo totally awesome. Seth Green, is like, sooo hot!! Y'kno!?
ok. Iono where exactly that came from, but it needed to be done.
My cats eat Cauliflower. They're so cute! But weird. My Richard actually took the lid off our tupperware thing of cauliflower and ate a bunch of it. Then we put the lid back on and he did it again. It was funny to watch since we were going to have to throw the cauliflower away anyway.
I went to the WASC reception thing today. It was kindof fun. I'm not very good at polite "nothing" chatter with adults though. I haven't had much experience with it. I like doing it though. And I love dressing in that semi-formal businessy way. I feel very "pro". It would be cool to teach as a professor. That's what I feel like when I dress like this kinda. The Student Rep that came w/ the WASC people was named Carlos. He was (supposedly) in High School. He came from JFK. He seemed really nice and very businesslike. He had a REALLY strong handshake though. I was like, "wow!" b/c I shook hands with him and his had almost SWALLOWED my hand WHOLE! He was a really big guy. He dwarfed Mr. Nichols. When he was talking to Ben it was rather odd to see. Proportionally it looked off. There both looked very mature, and interested, and businesslike, but Carlos was about five times larger.
