Man, you figured it would be kick ass. School is out, I got into a great school and I am getting a new car and laptop.

So WHY AM I SO BORED. I just sit home reading all day since no one wants to go out and usually when they do, it's at night. I am sick of not going to school since I usually stay at school the whole day talking with friends and going to class. I wish I was going back to school. So, in spite of my increasing boredom, I decided to do something about it. I started learning how to color in black and white photos and I do like my first results (seeing how it's such a beautiful photo also made it easier to look at :D).

After

What do you think? I would like some honest opinions since I might be doing more so it's easier to correct my mistakes now then later. Also, I am getting back into taking care of my site. Currently, the gallery is down but there is a temporary placement here. Also, I will be working on a new layout — or rather, I have it all done, I am just cleaning it up and getting ready to splice it up and code. I think these few things will occupy my time until I get out of this house. That and reading the whole Harry Potter series. I started and finished the first one yesterday, I should be done with the series by the end of next week.

EMO ALERT

Dear me,

Hey, you made someone close to you sad today. And now you are writing to yourself on your blog to the internet. It's amazing the shit you do and still you end up fucking yourself over. You go out of your time to help someone out and in the end, nothing works. Why is that?

Do people think I am oblivious to their feelings? Maybe it's the hidden implications they send me that I don't pick up. I can't help it, I'm new to this. I realize I should be more sensitive which is why I am trying so hard to do so. Don't think I purposely hurt people, cause I don't. Most of the time, I think I get hurt but then I try to amend it since I don't like to see people hurt.

Jeez, I hate this shit. Life needs less complications. I won't let this get to me though, at least, not during finals–I just needed something to vent to.

Chris

PS. I like writing to myself

Ugh, it’s that time of year again3

Finals is around the corner, I have a biology lab final tomorrow which I am not to worried about. Today was also the last day of my biology honors class which I wasn't worried about. Next week I have the following due…

1. Art final + museum report (I am so damn screwed!)
2. Geography final, which requires like a D for me to keep my A (I love non honors classes)
3. C++ final + final project. Yep, I am screwed.
4. Math final. MATH FINAL. MATH F*CKING FINAL. *runs around screaming*.

Other than school, this Friday I am going to the end of the year luncheon for the club/program I am in. It'll be fun, the officers (that's me!) will all be doing this skit from Whose Line is it Anyways? and we also made the theme to be pink and black so all the officers need to be in that color. I am thinking about going dressier than usual since I know others will be and I need to look as good as them. I will probably be doing in a pink dress shirt (tucked in), nice black slacks and dress shoes. Damn, I'll look good. Norma will be using my camera to take pictures and I will post them once I get it back from her on Saturday.

That's like the only thing I look forward to because after that is preparation for the damn finals

Dad is home2

Look what he got me, something he said he would bring back when he noticed I started to wear button down shirts. My dad will be here until next saturday night and it's sort of a good thing too since finals are coming up and I can study more. Man, I'll be so damn thankful once finals are over and the summer begins!
