sorry.
If you will allow me any of my own wants, emotions, beliefs or actions, then you open yourself, so that some day these ways of mine might not seem so wrong. To put up with me is the first step to understanding me. Not that you embrace my ways as right for you, but that you are no longer irritated or disappointed with me for my seeming waywardness. -from the introduction of "Please Understand Me"

hmm. i've realized that the voices arguing in my head about colleges are actually more annoying than my parents, because i know my parents are cool with anywhere i decide to go. its the little voices in my head that are agravating, going back and forth- 'harvard, for free!' 'but does it really have what you want?' 'but its harvard! for free!' yah. getting ahead of myself a bit though, i haven't even applied yet.
today was an interesting day at work. those of you who have been following my blog for a while will remember my famous celebrity look a like phase. well today, bob huggins really did come into kroger. i was standing right next to him apparently, and didn't realize it. what was really funny was i was outside on my break a couple minutes after he left and cory came up. he's going to uc and is a big fan. and brenda told him he just missed bob huggins . he was like, are you serious? and he asked how long ago he left, and we told him it was just five minutes and he got upset. apparently he's seen huggins a couple other times, cuz he comes in sporadically, but he said he wouldve given him a hug, even if he'd ended up getting sued for sexual assault or something. otherwise it was a typical, long day at work. oh wait, it wasn't quite. garret (my sis's boyfriend) came in, which was interesting i said hi, and he said hi, and then we were like, yeah... after he left, cody, one of the baggers i haven't talked to much, came up and asked me if i was amy's sister, and i said i was, and it turned out he was garrets step brother. and then don was talking with me and cody about vampires, and how hes going to start a crystal methodist church that makes sacrifices to the great vampire in the sky. all kidding, because thats just how don is. he comes up with such random topics all the time, which some people think is just strange, but i like him, i think he's funny. reminds me a bit of corey , actually.
what else... prince of egypt has been stuck in my head all day. second period gets to do the song let the river run, which i absolutely love, and i'm jealous. transcripts have been indefinitely postponed, which makes me sad. oh, i realized that when i start driving a lot, back and forth to college, i will also start working less, because i'm only available TFSS, because of night classes, so i will have less money, and all of it will probably have to go towards gas. did i mention how the radio made the prediction it will hit 5 bux around us? in lousiana its already around 6. i feel so bad for those people, the victims of katrina. i heard just after it happened some political figure had described it as 'our tsunami' and i thought they were exagerating, but really, entire cities have been wiped out. entire cities. i haven't seen pictures, i've just been hearing about it, because i don't like watching the tv news for various reasons, and we don't get the paper during the week, but just thinking about it is incomprehensible. entire cities, just gone. and they're talking about rebuilding, but how long will that take? can you imagine how long it would take to rebuild a city? it takes long enough to rebuild a single house, but an entire city? i keep thinking of atlantis. i know these cities aren't entirely underwater, and they're not gone forever, but they have been completely wiped out, for the moment. its horrible. and besides that damage, there's thousands dead....
to change back to a more happy topic, my room is completely clean and organized, but for my closet. tackling my closet will take over every inch of space with piles and such, so i'm enjoying my clean room for a couple days before i do that. but seriously- bookshelves, dresser drawers, desk, under the bed, chair, desk drawers, corner in front of the closet, jewelry boxes.... all clean and organized. i'm very proud.
It takes a long time to grow young.
