April 24, 2002... 5:04

I got a little pissed off. I started writing in my other
entry about today. I forgot to skip info about yesterday,
and was suppose to come back to it. I left to go to the
bathroom, so I submitted it again and got off line. When I
come back to update that entry, it did not properly
resubmit my old one, or it requires more time, so I'm not
gonna riski it, and just write everything out here:

Once I left the computer yesterday, I went with my bro to
this pool hall. We were suppose to first drop off some
packages of grandmas to our ants house first though. So we
pick up this chick, who'se name quite ironically is Teresa,
and hop on over to our ants house. Arthur liks Teresa's
cousin. I think her name is Eve. So we drop off the boxes
and head to the pool hall. We then met up with some more of
Arthurs and Daniels friends, Manuel and Stan. While Arthur,
Teresa and I were driving there, Daniel was getting out of
work, and called up Manuel, (since Arthur doesn't have his
cell anymore,) to pick him up. So we were deciding what to
do infront of the place. What ended up was that Stanley
went in the pool hall with Teresa and I, while Arthur and
Manual went to pick up Danish.

Even though I'm not 18 and I'm a bad liar, the dude let me
play without an ID. It was cool. Teresa beat him in air
hockey, then Teresa and I beat him in pool, and the two of
us played and she won one game and was suppose to play
Stan, but he went off to talk somewhere so we started
playing again. Eventually the rest of our company arrived
and played next to us. Teresa played with Stan and Stan won
with a struggle. There was alot of smoke in the air, and I
did make a fool of myself a bunch of times when I had an
easy shot and hardly hit the ball, if I hit it at all. But
I am happy that I scored about 4 or 5 balls in our first
game.

Arthur was teasing Tersa and I that Stan was trying to pick
us up. HAHAHA. If you know Stan you'd know why I'm
laughing. He has this distinctive look of boredom about
him, and even talks as though he were constantly bored. You
just can't picture him doing anything real wild. Like......
dancing. At least not moving his body alot.

Arthur came to the conclusion that he was trying to get
with Teresa. Especially since Teresa and Arthur, on the
ride there, were having one of those friendly arguments. So
he told her that he's not gonna drive her home cause she's
mean. So Stanley jumps in and sais: "I'll drive her."
Automatically. Speaking with no doubt or joke in his voice.
I laughed saying: "See what happens? Don't ever say
something like that to a girl when there is a bunch of guys
around just waiting for that opportunity."

Arthur was kinda impressed how we clicked though. Cause he
said that normally Teresa is kinda shy and not very
talkative, but now she was talking alot. And I'm like that
too, (atleast around his bizarre friends,) but now I was
talking to her too, and it was cool. Maybe it was cause I
was in a friendly mood that day. He even said he was amazed
when she practically "attacked" me with a hug, and she
never even hugged Arthur until she hugged him after me. She
even said that we should hang some more. I as any person
said ofcourse.

I was talking to Arthur afterwards after they dropped off
Manual and Danish was in a video store gettin "Behind Enemy
Lines." He strated telling me about how it was kinda weird.
So I joked and said: "What do you know? Maybe she like that
sort of thing." He told me that her sister does. I'm like
what?!? I got nothing against it, I just didn't expect it.
HAHAHA. Funny.

OH yeah, and one more thing about that. I got so much smoke
in my lungs. Even though there weren't many people there,
it was a closed space with no open windows and about 6 pool
tables occupied. 1 having about 4 people on it. Practically
all smoking. I was caughing the whole way home. Yuck!!!
Never again!

I wanna leave and go somewhere again today. Anywhere. Well,
almost. I don't think it's gonna happen though. Since my
dad is real bitchy that practically nothing is packed and
moved. (Funny how I volunteered my services yet was
terribly turned down, and am the only person that has
packed practically everything. The things I have are
practically being used still, so I can't pack them.) Bozo
has the wierdest way of packing. Since he's mad, he just
wants to pack up all the junk into some bags, put it in the
car and put it anywhere in the new house. He is such a
garbage keeper. This is the reason why I packed so fast. I
had all the clothes I disliked and wanted to get rid of
already separated for months ahead of time, and I don't
hold worthless trash just cause it may be usefull within
the next year or whenever.

Now about today...

We had the ACT's today. I had a hard time getting to school
since my rides couldn't make up their minds since yesterday
about who should go. But I got there.

So we had 4 parts to the test, English, Math, Reading, and
Science. The first went real well. English was quite easy,
and I think I even got them all right, or atleast 90% and
above. English=easy. Unfortunately I ran out of time and
left 11 with guesses. Oh well. Out of 70 this does bring my
grade down quite a bit. But I'm not worried.
Math was easy at first. Simple problems were on the
beginning. Ones we had in Pre-Algebra, including some basic
word problems. Then we moved on to Algebra and it got a
little harder so I started guessing. Once we went to
Geometry I was dead and gone. Towards the end was trig. I
didn't even bother with that. Out of aproximately 60
questions, I answered a little less then 1/2 without
guessing.
A fifteen minute break, followed by Reading. The English
part was double spaced. This wasn't. Even though I am used
to typing in that style, and prefer it, it was a big change
from the first part of the exam. Therefore I didn't quite
care. Especially since I was planning on retaking it
anyway. After the break I became out of focus completely. I
started spending minutes on simple problems. I started
guessing every other passage.
In the Science Reasoning part I was most prepared.
Unfortunately I have a short attention/concentration span,
so I messed up on it alot, and lost alot of time as usual.
I can never complete that part in time. So I did one
passage and guessed the next, did one, guessed the next,
e.t.c...
Finally, the test was over. Unfortunately, we have to take
the Prairie State Assesment Exam tomorrow for 1/2 the
school day too. The rest of the school then come at 1:30,
we go to division, and 1st period. Which I don't really
mind. My 1st period is cool. Besides, we're starting on our
large paintings. Stretching the canvas and creating the
frame, so I don't wanna miss that. Especially since I'm
planning on finishing that thing A.S.A.P. and afterwards
slacking off in class. Doing other work. Besides, something
tells me I will be late for 1st again soon. this will make
it my 6th or 5th tardy this semester. So far so good. Last
time I had about 10 by this point, and 12 would have me
drop my 1st period. But that didn't happen.

After the test my friend was making paper airplanes and
feeling very sincere. He told Kathy and me to ask him
anything we want to know. He will be completely honest.
Even if it hurts those around him. So we asked and asked
the most bizzare things. Like Why is the sky blue? (He gave
this whole phylosophical thing about how light brings color
into the world and all that Biological stuff.) Our other
friend Tim asked Eric: (that honest for the time being
dude) "Am I fat?" He said something like, well you are
medium built. (The guy isn't fat at all in truth, atleast I
don't see it.) The announcement was then made that we can
leave and he asked do we have any more questions for him.
So I thought, hmm... an honost opinion from a guy. This is
a girl's dream. Suddenly Teresa's picture popped in my head
and told him to wait up. (My sis)

While walking in the hall way I took out the pic that she
sent me and showed it to him. I asked him: Do you think
she's ugly? He turns to me automatically and sais: No. In a
no duh kinda way. (I guess I should have asked what do you
think of her, would have been of more use.) Asked me why
would I ask him that. I told him that some guy told her,
well I told him what he said to her, and that she felt
weird about having a friend say that. So he motions his
hand in kind of a, Ah forget him, kind of thing, and sais:
He doesn't know what he's saying. I'm just like: Cool.

So after I got out of school I went to turn in my
application to Starbuck's. I did so. FINALLY! Hopefully
they'll accept me and my hours. I hope they don't have a
problem with me starting work at 4 p.m. on the weekdays, if
they hire me, and actually need someone. Which now they
don't, and prabobly have a long line of people just to go
through training. Like me. I think I'll apply at Euro Cafe
too. There might be some hot guys there and it'll give me
tips (pherhaps) and some sort of experiance in the field of
coffee. Even if I have to become a waitress again I'll do
it for coffee. I might also apply at this new cafe which is
closest to new house. It looks classy. From the outside
atleast.

Well I was gonna just take a bus home from there, but I
stopped by that new age store where my friend and I got our
Tarot done. Unfortuantely I had money and ended up spending
over 10 bucks which I was helplessly saving in a slow
process of not spending my lunch money too often, and lying
to my parents to get some more dough out of them. I almost
got a 100 and was planning on putting it into a secret bank
account as soon as I get that amount atleast.

Well anyway, I bought some real incense sticks of which one
is definately already burned out, and a drawing down the
moon wicca necklace. I thought it was 3 bucks, turned out
to be 8. A little smear here and there goes a long way. I
like it though. May look kinda cheap, but you can't really
get this kind of a necklace much other places. It's even
hard to get a penticle at times. So I got over the money
and am now enjoying my necklace.

((Guess what, my dad just found 20 more incense sticks.
They must be old. From the times when I didn't know what
does things were. Mainly cause I would have already burned
them. Also cause they're packaged, and I never buy
packaged. SO yeah. Good stuff!!!))

I'm gonna go now. I think this is by far my longest, most
descriptive entry ever. Can't wait till I write a longer
one. But like Dr. Van Helsing said in Dracula: (Okay I
don't remember and don't wanna bother checking right now,
so I might write it in later. It's very nice though.)
Yeah :0)
