I have to delete my LiveJournal.
It has only opened a sea of problems for me, and offered no solutions.
I don't think my writing on here was that interesting anyways.
:/
Good bye. |

I don't think I've written a LiveJournal in a long while that's actually talked about what's been going on in my life. Let's see...
Well, grades closed on Friday and I think I did pretty decently. Especially in Economics, and that class is really starting to grow on me. Brit Lit has become somewhat of a disappointment. Mr. Purdum isn't as exciting as he used to be but there are other reasons for me to love going to that class now :)
The Twilight premiere is in less than twelve days, and I'm going at midnight with Hannah and Anna, maybe Danielle too hopefully! I am so excited...
ALSO, don't get too jealous but I'm going to meet ROBERT PATTINSON on Friday! He's appearing at a Hot Topic in the Boston area around 6 PM - ish and Anna invited me to go. I can hardly wait. I promised Danielle's little sister, whom I got into the book series, that I'd bring something back for her that Robert Pattinson signed or something else, maybe a piece of his shirt haha. I think we're only allotted one autograph per person, so I will see what I can do for her. This means no one else can ask me to get me something for themselves... I'm only doing this favor for Sarah because she's twelve, obsessed with Robert Pattinson and deserves something to make her smile.
In other news, I only slept 5 hours last night for some reason. This isn't a good sign, not at all. This is what happens when a streak of not sleeping is around the corner... fuck insomnia. |

I think it's wonderful that so many young people are involved in the election and can feel as though they're doing their part to spread the word. My mission today has been to encourage those eligible to go out tomorrow and vote for their candidate of choice. Of course, I have my own personal opinions but I'd rather someone vote for Barack Obama than not at all. I think it's important that all voices are heard in this election because I know if I was eighteen tomorrow, the first thing I'd do is vote. Don't think your voice won't be heard and that you are just one miniscule, insignificant person. Your voice can only be heard if you use it. So if you're going to let yourself be heard on any day of the year, let it be tomorrow, November 4th. VOTE. |

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
I hope everyone has a fun, safe evening and gets all the treats and tricks that they desire :)
I'll be attending the HPRS Halloween party with Danielle tonight from eight until around midnight. I'll be clad in vampire attire and Danielle's costume will be a surprise for everyone... even herself lmao.
Now, if I could only find my camera charger so I could document the evening... |

The media is biased, which I think is wrong and sways uneducated voters in the wrong direction. When I become a journalist, my entire career will be focused on providing unbiased information to the people. I will not feed them opinions and altered evidence. This is why so many people are liberal because the media is liberally biased. If more people understood the fundamental mechanics of politics and got all the facts instead of just the ones that put liberalism in a positive light then more people would actually be able to vote for their true candidate of choice.
The media has become a machine that takes facts and turns them into left-sided propaganda. I'm sick of it. The media should be politically neutral however it has become the exact opposite. I hope to reverse this someday but until then I will continue to ignore what other people tell me and just get the facts for myself. I suggest you follow if you REALLY want to call yourself a supporter. |

Will someone please call a surgeon who can crack my ribs
and repair this broken heart that you're deserting for better company?
I can't accept that it's over and I will block the door like a goalie
tending the net in the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry
So just say how to make it right
And I swear I'll do my best to comply
Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together?
I feel i must interject here...
You're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself
With these revisions and gaps in history
So let me help you remember.
I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear.
I've prepared a lecture on why I have to leave
So please back away and let me go
I can't my darling I love you so...
But oh, oh...
Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better
Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together?
Don't you feed me lies about some idealistic future.
Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures.
I know that I have made mistakes and I swear
I'll never wrong you again
You've got a lure I can't deny,
But you've had your chance so say goodbye
Say goodbye |

I've been out of school for the past two days with the school and I'm not sure if I'll be going tomorrow either because A) My Brit Lit group still needs to present B) I'm missing a lot of work and quizzes and tests C) If I don't go tomorrow, I'm missing the pep rally too and I actually like the pep rallies, they're funny.
This sucks :(
AND I missed Caswell getting dunked today. I was looking forward to that one all month.
Stupid flu. I hate you.
NOTE: Rhyming not intended.
^ You can tell I was sick when I wrote that because it doesn't make any sense.
Wowww. My fever is killing my brain cells. |

God, there's nothing like a live track of Neil Young on a gloomy Tuesday afternoon to put you in a mellow mood.
I've been thinking a lot lately. And coughing, too. I'm not sure where it came from or why, but I'm just especially icky. Gym was interesting, to say the least. Sharing a badminton court with your decided enemy isn't truly my idea of a good time.
But, whatever, it's life. I'll live. I'm just upset to see someone I once admired greatly disappoint me even more.
Grudges are pointless, why can't we just forgive and move on?
Exactly ONE month until Twilight
Halloween is in 10 days. |
