Discoveries.
What I learned about myself today:
1) I was born in the wrong generation. Right now, I should be out of college in my mid twenties getting a PhD. What the fuck am I still doing in High School? In my junior year, nonetheless.
2) I really do not have tolerance for stupidity. I’m sorry for mis-balancing an equation in chemistry today, but if you are failing the class, you have NO right to...
Today was too good to not write about. I don’t even know where to start, it was just a fantastic day. I didn’t do as badly as I expected on my math test, and I have an A in the class right now so fuck yes. Chemistry was insane, I don’t even know. We got an extension on our huge research paper, so instead of being due tomorrow, it’s now due next Tuesday. As if Chemistry...
Now that it’s college acceptance time, I get stressed out really easily. It’s so stupid, but it really stresses me out. I have freak-outs about college at least once a month. Majority of times it’s just to myself, but sometimes it gets so bad that I have to tell (really, yell) it to someone. I’ve grown up thinking about college (thanks, brother) ever since I was in 2nd...
Wait - it’s only 8:33 on a Monday morning and it’s already off to a shitty start? How does that happen? …guess it’s time for a list post.
Why this week will be good:
1) No homework tonight because of Passover…which means I have a ton of work to do tonight (mm chemistry paper.)
2) No piano on Tuesday (spring break at the studio and I haven’t practice all...
Throwback.
I remember multiple days leading up to the announcement of my family’s move to Japan. I remember walking into my parents bedroom to find my Dad looking at schools around the Tokyo area. I remember him trying to shamelessly cover up the reasons why he was. I remember the day my Mom told me we were moving. It was after school at the intersection of Garrett and Old Chapel Hill Rd. and we...
Just finished watching Hachi. Brb- still bawling my eyes out.
This is a list post.
Occasionally I make lists so:
-It mixes things up
-It’s easier to write
-I don’t have to write in complete sentences.
Today was good because…
-I took my picture for my new passport…thank goodness. That shiny forehead, middle part and over-enthusiastic smile were killing me…downside is that I lose all my entry and departure stamps. I never travel anymore so...
This morning on the way to school, I almost died. I don’t even know where this shit came from, but this runaway cart from the back of a pick-up truck came unattached and headed straight for my car. Well fuck that shit. Thank goodness it missed me. Today was solid. I got my first 100 ever on a Lanis English quiz hahahah. For once I actually understood what was going on in...
When I’m anxious or worried or paranoid, I tend to make up scenarios in which make me feel better. Like reasons someone isn’t texting me back, reasons why someone is acting the way they are, etc. That used to calm me down. Now I think my body has gotten used to that feeling and no longer calms me, so now I’m just worried and anxious and paranoid all the time. What is wrong with...
Sushi
-Talking about prom-
Mary: You two would be a scrumptious little roll of sushi
Me: What???
Mary: Asian couples. Gotta love them.
Me: He's half, fool.
Mary: Okay. California roll. Get that American flare.
Oh, wait. I forgot to write about the thing that bugged me the most today. Today my Mom and I went to Bojangles after my piano lesson to get dinner. When we walked inside, all of DSA’s baseball team was in there. Alright, cool. Whatever. We were next in line waiting for these two baseball guys to finish up their order. Apparently one of the kids had no idea what he was ordering and...
There are too many things I want to write about so maybe I’ll just write about my day in chronological order.
This morning, I came into school first period at regular time (I had free) to take the chemistry test that I skipped yesterday for Fun Day at the Lower School. There were about four of us, and we knew our chemistry teacher knew we were supposed to take our test during that time...
I’m tired of never being happy. I’ve had so much fucking rain now I want my fucking rainbow.
“I’ve been convincing myself that I’m worthwhile, ‘cause...”
Most disappointing music albums of 2010 so far?
1) Congratulations - MGMT
Shit. MGMT used to be on of my favourite groups. Oracular Spectacular was fantastic. Too bad it seems that MGMT peaked then. Congratulations is boring and monotonic. They tried to make their music sound so original, it ended up sounding the same.
2) LOVE - Angels & Airwaves
…Angels & Airwaves used to be...
Sometimes I wonder if all these bad things that happen again and again to me will result in something amazing later in life…or if it’s karma for all the shit that I’ve done to other people.
I tend to lean towards the latter half but there’s a smidgen of hope that it’s the first half.
Today, I went to go visit my old kindergarten/science teacher. It was bittersweet. Kind of awkward. A typical reunion with someone you’ve known for a while but haven’t made the effort to see. After a few minutes of shallow chit-chat, I was turning around to leave when my teacher told me to wait. She went into her classroom’s closet and proceeded to take out a scrapbook. It...
Hello
My name is Kristie and welcome to my failure of a life.
Missing half of Latin to sing, and missing ITP and English to take a national chemistry test.
It’s going to be a good day.
I hate people. So much. SO MUCH.
Scumbag.
New obsession? Modern Family.
My life in the past 3 days described in two incomplete sentences.
College Touring. Skins.
I like acting smarter…much smarter than I actually am.
Maybe I never actually got over you.
I HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO GET DONE THIS WEEK I CAN’T EVEN BOTHER TO TURN OFF CAPS BECAUSE I AM FREAKING OUT.
I CAN’T EVEN START TO LIST THE THINGS I NEED TO GET DONE.
OH MY GODDDDDDD.
