Health Insurance is for Pussies.

Since I got very little sleep last night I decided to go ahead and skip my Biology class, having a friend take notes for me. I came home and ate a bagelful, which are fucking delicious. Then I curled up in my bed and went to sleep. I woke up at 3:30pm to the sound of my parents being loud and irritating. I sat up and discovered I have a headache from hell.
Thank you, Jesus.

I made another bagelful and grabbed a bag of cheetos for a snack. Came downstairs and realized "Oh, my throat is killing me on one side." and it feels a lot like strep. And before anyone goes "Oh how do you know what that feels like?" Look, I should of had my tonsils out years ago... I know what it feels like.
I'm secretly hoping that this is one of those "Sore throats" that goes away after you wake up a bit. But it's been about 2.5 hours since I woke up, and it still hurts. So only time will tell.

German test was not as horrible as I had thought, which pleased me greatly. I was a bit freaked out about it, but I took it and true to form, I'm far smarter than I give myself credit for. It's going to be 2 weeks before we get the tests back, since our teacher is a bit slow... But as long as the grade gets posted on Angel in a week I'll be happy.

Nothing really to write about other than school.. My days are mundane and boring as of late, or at least I feel they are. Perhaps to a nun my days are thrilling, driving around with my windows down, screaming at the top of my lungs to the radio and chain smoking Camel Crush cigarettes until I'm a hacking mess either due to the bug that's now living in my wind pipe or the 5 cigarettes I had, no one is certain.

OH! Biology lab test? I managed a B on it. Which means I AM NOT STUPID. You can't see me but I'm totally doing the \o/ cheery guy right now.

Parents are going out of town this weekend. You know what that means! BAKED GOODS AT JEN'S HOUSE! I'm excited. Pancakes, cupcakes, Cake cakes! Oh My!

And before I go into a diabetic coma just thinking about all the goodies, I'm going to get some pants on and head to the store. I need a cigarette and quite possibly a good dose of Penicillin.

The Second Debate

I watched the debate tonight and can officially say that 1.) Thats the first one I've ever watched start to finish and 2.) halfway through it I was so fed up with McCain badmouthing Obama and cracking crap jokes I had to pour myself a drink.

Last election I voted on what others around me said "Bush is evil, we don't want him in the whitehouse!" and something about "Gay Boot camp" to turn the fags straight. So I headed off to the polls with my shiny new registration card and voted for Kerry.
And like most Americans I was outraged to hear that Kerry had not won, in fact I cursed Ohio pretending like I had a clue about what was going on.
Truth be told, I didn't and for the most part I still don't.

My second Election is coming up and I thought this time around I'd try to be better informed, try to pick based on what they believed, policies and how they presented themselves... well hot damn, Obama presented himself as a black kid raised by a single mom working two jobs, a black man who worked HARD to get where he's gotten to. A man, no race needed at this time, running for office who doesn't have his daddy or his mommy to thank for his wealth, power or influence.

Plus the guy is BLACK. (I know Oh shit, oh shit!)

So in four weeks I will march, or you know, drive.. my happy ass over to that beach four blocks from my house. I'll stand in line and vote for Obama. I knew this the moment I learned he was running, I knew this the moment he beat out Hilary.. Why?

Because even if he DOESN'T WIN (Which I will then curse Ohio.. or whatever state gets counted last.. I'm not even sure how it works..) he's gone and set an example that needed to be set. That Black kids living in low class can work hard and with love, support and a brain.. can be whatever the FUCK they want to be.

Did you know that my brother, Lavandis, didn't even utter the words "I wanna go to college" until Obama started being mentioned regularly in our household? That my sister, Hope, now wants to resume her dream of being the first zooologist black woman to run this country?
And that I, have finally taken an interest in what goes on around me, enough to sit and suffer through the debate, to read about the issues, the quotes, the facts and watch the broadcasts?

It's amazing what one man, who rose up from nothing, has done to not only my house.. but to homes all across the country. Maybe McCain will win, he is our "Friend" after all, but at the end of the election, who inspired more people?

Obama gets my vote.

Taking control?

Today we had English. For those of you who don't talk to me on a daily basis, we're doing a research project as a group regarding hauntings.

So far I've done the majority of the work. Today we handed out surveys. I spent 30 bucks on donuts so we'd have them to hand out. 30 bucks.. how crazy is that?
Well the group discussed getting together sometime during the week to get the surveys counted and the results tallied.
So what did I do? I spent the afternoon counting, tallying and making pie charts on Power point for it. On top of that I have typed up the 9 pages thus far, and have put myself in charge of the "Day by day update" regarding our project.

So here I am worried that I'm not going to get a good grade with my group and thus I have taken complete control and am now stressed and have far too much on my plate.
Take a moment to appreciate that the cat is now licking his asshole. Thanks Kitty.
And then he sneezed and is now glaring at me.
Apparently I'm not allowed to blog about him giving himself a rim-job.

And back on subject..
I have a German test tomorrow which normally would be no problem. But I'm not sure on some of the plural forms and the articles. I need a drink, and some relaxing time. But sadly, I have to grab some text books and get to work.
Wish me luck folks, wish me lots of luck. And have a drink for me, a strong one.

Just another Saturday...

It's Saturday night and here I am sitting at JoAnnes. I don't have a problem with this, although I do have a problem with the fact that I'm completely alone. Theres a handle of Captain in the kitchen and I'm tempted to pour myself a drink.
But I wont. I refuse to turn into my parents, drinking because I'm lonely.
And that's what I am.. Lonely.

Andrea called me today. She need 160 bucks for rent. (Andrea is my brother's girlfriend) of course she doesn't call me because she wants to hang out.. doesn't call me beacause she needs a friend.. She calls me because she needs money. It hurt.
And of course, I'm going to give it to her because I have no spine.
Shame, I wish I had a spine.

My brain is a tizzy of activity yet when I put my fingers to the keyboard it draws a blank. What the hell is wrong with me?
