Sorrow: I'm in band right now and feel like ****.
Sorrow: I'm also to stubborn to leave or even take it easy unless I actually throw up.
Joy: I at least don't feel like I'm going throw up.

Good luck man. Where are you working?
Thanks!

I haven't heard back yet--but if I get it, it will be a part-time shelving position at a library.

More Joy: I just ran two miles, which was more then I thought I could do because I haven't worked out for like two weeks, which is abnormal for me, but I had a lot of packing, moving, and unpacking to do LuLz

By what standards? I may have decent upper arm strength and flexibility compared to most people in the band, but I can't run distance to save my life. There are a lot of kids who can run faster and longer than me that I could do a lot more push-ups then. Just because you can't lift some weights doesn't mean you are a wimp.

Everyone starts off feeling that way but they get fitter and stronger over time, and so will you, as long as you commit to doing regular exercise. And eating healthy food. And drinking plenty of water. And studying (strong body and strong mind make a potent combination).

LuLz. I was the top im my class (of five)
But being fit not unachievable, it just takes practice and time. A good thing to do is start off slow and work your way up. You've gotta push yourself, but the better you do and the longer you do it, the easier it all gets.

Lol for funsies I was looking up my house and the route I take to school. Apparently the route I use requires caution. A bit random. Apparently it may be missing sidewalks. Umm no it isn't.

Joy: My older sister came back from a University trip to tenerife and had many stories to tell. She took lots of pictures including some sweet little kitties and some adorable newborn puppies aww they were so cute!

Joy: I'm (finally) getting my hair cut on Friday. I am getting it designed based on a final fantasy character so it actually looks somewhat decent for once.

Bigger joy: Possibility of going to a barbeque on Saturday. I hope it doesn't rain but knowing my luck...

Joy - The first football game of the season is tomorrow. More importantly, that means that the marching band will be playing our first halftime show under the new director. I have fairly high hopes!

Bleh - Due to a scheduling mess-up, I'll have to go right from work to school for the game.

Argh - I put off my summer AP Chem work until now. Six billion book problems aaaaaggggh.

I'm really sorry to hear that Grey. :( I wish I was able to help.


Sorrow: My friend Jeff is going to have to get rid of his dog. The neighbors have complained about her because Jeff let her run loose and she got into peoples stuff. They've been keeping her up lately but the landlord is still not giving them another chance to correct the situation. He says that they have to get rid of the dog, or they have to find another place to live. Jeffs really depressed about it, and I feel terrible about the situation too, but I also know that this could have all been avoided if they had done the right thing in the first place and kept her in a pin or made her walk on a leash. I know that this has hurt Jeff pretty bad, and since he doesn't come from the best of backgrounds either, I have a feeling this has set him back emotionally and it may take him a while to cope. I really don't want to see my friend in this situation but there's nothing I can do other than being there for him.

First day of my senior year today. I don't know how to feel about this. I'm excited to see friends, but last year was pretty rough so I'm also anxious.

honestly, kinda debatable. You can either be happy you realized it, or sad that you didn't realize it sooner.

Quite frankly, I've been a bit of a jerk though.

If you're talking about high school, senior year is easier.
Now, if you're talking about college, I can't help you there *shot*

Sorrow:
Eventually, contradictions become hard to follow.
A perfect example, I'm reading from my History book and in one paragraph, the word "However" is used each following sentence 7 times.
"However, this happened. However, that happened. However this happened. However that happened."
And I'm like, "WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPENING!!!???!?!?!?!?!"
