I learned a lot today, mainly due to the fact that two guys showed up to test our water. Overall, it was pretty cool and interesting.
I learned that water from the faucet, even if "purified" by a home filter, will still hold high amounts of chemicals including lead. We did a small test with a bulb and electric current; filtered water turn the bulb on, and bottled water did not. Yeah.
Somehow, after sticking some metal sticks in a beaker with both kinds of water, our water turned an ugly green with some kind of rust floating. That was disgusting! And it's what we drink!
Here's what they offer: a full system that purifies and cleans water for the entire house. Through reverse osmosis (I haven't yet looked up the process, but it's the same Aquafina uses). The price? A mere $7,600. To be paid in monthly payments of $126.77 I think he said it'd take five years to pay it off. But it is a really nice system and great for every one's health.
That's why I drink bottled water honeys! Aquafina. Fine Water, apparently.
Today I was supposed to go with April to Angie's church. I couldn't, of course, because my dad had to work (on a Sunday!) and we had to drive my mom to church (she doesn't dare drive downtown) for her to be there at 11.
I had plans to go to both churches, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to. I hope we can go next Sunday! (Apie, Angie?)
So I went to my church today with my hot-green Aeropostale shirt and hot jeans on. My hair was hot too. I need to get it cut though, it's getting long at the top.
Also, there was this really hot white dude filming today's Fiesta after the service. His facial hair was sexy and he had the coolest choker on. He was hot. One of my girls took two pictures of him; they aren't great, but they show him, kinda.
I tried to accidentally bump into him but he kept on moving. At one point I lined up right behind him to get tamales but I did it too late and he left. Oh well.
I didn't even get a name! How lame!
My family was invited to go out to eat with some friends so we went to a Chinese place. I was full because I had gotten out of the Fiesta so I had a plate of rice and more stuff and a salad with lime and salt. I was so bored that I had an ice cream and more soda.
I need to stop texting under the table. I need to stop texting as much, period.
My brother had a tennis match to go too so my dad took him in the middle of dinner. Laym! That's why they lost!
After eating, we went to my friend's house (same family as dinner). The, guy, who's also in church choir and a good friend of mine had on a black Aeropostale shirt on and hot jeans too. We almost dressed alike! He's not too bad, either.
I love my little Godsister; she's so cute and she can almost talk now. I love seeing her run around the house and smiling and laughing.

Disparame Dispara
Shoot me Shoot.
It's a song, don't worry. Really good, by Laura Pausini. I love it when she sings in Italian.
I forgot to mention something in yesterday's entry. So here it is: April had a project due yesterday for her Health class. She had to make some kind of 3-D creating of a tongue. It turned out pretty cute. She even used (neon) pink Play-Doh for her project. I printed out an image with the tongue's taste buds labeled in the picture so she could do that on her project. So she stuck cute little toothpicks in the right places. Then she gave me the printed sheet! Isn't that awesome!? My own little image that tells me when I can taste "sweet" the best! Ehl-oh-ehl.
It was April's idea, she wanted me to make a big deal out of it, so here it is.
Journalism was kind of wild today. Two editors were bashing on Angie because they don't like her story idea but, instead, they want to write more about hot topics. I truly think we need parts of both, and Ms. Jesse will listen more to her dear Editor-in-Chief, so I'm going to tell her that. I'm also going to ask her how to start the petition so I can start working on it during Fall Break.
I wanted to take this break to finish up my homemade Christmas cards and start on V-Day. Also, I want to start applying to colleges. One of my friends in New Pal already got his acceptance letter from IU. Jealous!
Today MLK's speech was really due. I was the first one to be called upon by the teacher to recite the passage. Unfortunately, I was only able to recall 30 lines out of 57. I wasn't the worst one though; she only said four words. Tisk tisk.
I hope I have a B so far. There were about 1,000 points possible. I got 600 today, and if I do the extra credit I'll have 900. Not bad.
The ICP class was watching IMAX's T-Rex. I was so cold so I had my fake-bunny fur on me almost the whole time. And I watched the movie too. It wasn't that great, mainly because I didn't finish it. But, whatev.
Music was okay. We had Technicians and we worked on some Christmas songs. It is imperative that we practice because now Ms. H also has Fall Play and not much time with us.
I'm seriously thinking about taking my own lunch to school just because people are incredibly rude and ghetto. Black people can cut you, not pun intended, but you can't cut. What the eff?
Japanese was intense. I though. I think we have a quiz tomorrow. Shoot.
SMOGEE was annoying. I turned the lights off twice when the teacher walked out. The first time she made a comment about forgetting to turn the lights on and the second time she told us not to turn them off anymore. It was so funny.
So after school. We had a short newspaper meeting since Ms. Jesse had to leave at 3:30. I left earlier anyway to go to Techoir and work on stuff. I didn't do very much, but hey! We ended up going to German Band's small show outside of the auditorium. It was pretty fun. And they had huge pretzels too! Yum. I don't have the same feelings towards Root Beer though.
And for some reason, Steven couldn't keep his colds hand off of my neck and face. It was funny though, and he tried to pull my shirt out of my pants.
I think Yajaira likes me, and she still doesn't know I'm gay. I don't want to tell her though. I don't know, I don't want to hurt her feelings.
Band was pretty much canceled due to lack of band members showing up. I think the band did work on some music, but not much for color guard. Besides, only three of us showed up. Whatev, I worked on Japanese.
I was going to stay for Tech's Open House, but decided not to so I rode the 5:30 bus home. I arrived at around 6:40. Whatev.
My computer is dying. It turns itself off. It's scary. So I have to burn CDs with pics probably this week. What a burden.
It's okay if you don't update tonight Audrey. I love you, tee-hee. ^^v

Love Ya Tomorrow
I was going to talk about yesterday, since I didn't really get to; I spent time talking with Joey instead. She's so cute. I love her.
Let's see (I made a list! Yeah, I know v.v). I was going to talk about the Fall Concert. My last Fall Concert, excuse me. It was pretty okay, until we got to Tech's gospel choir. The first song was okay, but then the second one, when they tried to go into parts, it just wasn't working. I did like the dancers though. They looked flowy.
All the barbershops were awesome. And Concert Band sounded amazing too. Audrey and I were doing color guard at our seats. It was pretty fun.
I thought Technicians were great too. I think I heard that Joey and Matt got the pins. Yay.
Techoir, of course, was amazing.
And Techniques were so adorable! Amber's and Shayla's solos were awesome too.
I saw Robin, Josh's older brother. He gave me a hug! He's so silly and funny.
Yesterday was our first SMOGEE day too. It pretty much sucked. I think so. We are not very organized. And it doesn't help that we have two teachers constantly taking notes on what the high schoolers are doing.
So we got to Tech, and I went to my journalism meeting. Ms. Jesse thought it was very productive; I, again, didn't think so. I need more. And I'm still not done with my story. Whatever.
After that, I walked to the Tennis courts to fetch my brother so we could both go together to Subway. He decided he wanted to play more so I was going to get both of us food. Then Angie asked me if I wanted to go to McDonald's with her. Of course! So we went. It was dress up day and we were both matching! So I escorted her to the counter. It was cute. I can't remember what I did to my money though. Oh well.
I don't know if you've noticed, but if you go down 16th street towards Tech, from downtown, you will pass over a really fun hill. We did. While listening to Hawk Nelson. The song finished just as we landed from "the big jump." It was so fun, Angie was kind of speeding too so it was better. We did that same hill twice last year. Great times.
It was April's big 18th. Happy Bee-Day April!
Today was lame. Stupid PSAT.
My classes were so lame! I had only five in my first class, Tesia and Angie were there, three my second, and I was alone third. I have English 11 third period, so that sucked even more for me. I didn't know where to go, so I roamed Treadwell's hall for about 20 minutes and then decided to go into Ms. Solchik's classroom.
Shanez showed up, and we talked most of the period. Mainly about our lives. I can relate to her, kind of. And she is crazy too. We talked a lot.
Second day at Shortridge. It was much better. Better organized, and less noise. Midde schoolers are just so darn hyper all the time.
There was a fight after school, in a bus. We were making fun of people and how ugly they were. They were just so disgusting!
Today was my first day in the media center this year. I've been done with A Lesson Before Dying so I read Don't Die Dragonfly, I finished it today. So today I checked out The Memory Keeper's Daughter. Ms. Laker wants me to make her a report about it because she hasn't read it yet, but she ordered four copies of this book. That's great.
Shanez thinks Steven wouldn't reject me. And I will only know if I ask. She does have a point. But then again...-sigh- I don't know. I'm tired.

New shoes!
I just kind of got back from Wal-Mart having bought a new pair of dress shoes. They are pretty nice and I love them.
I really do love to dress up. I love black dress pants and long-sleeved shirts. I love to roll my sleeves though. I also love scarves. But it sucks that I only have two. I need more. That should be my Christmas and birthday wishlist. Really. Scarves.
Anyways, the shoes were almost $30. And they are for Technician shoes. If I take good care of them, I might wear them to school every other day.
I was surprised when I checked peoples' blogs and found them with old entries. I wanted to read interesting stuff. Oh well.
Right now I am pretty upset at myself for not updating my blog as much as I wanted to. I was doing so good this month, and then it got to the weekend, which was fun. Let me tell you about that.
Saturday, of course, was Techoir workday. I woke up at like 6:30 to pick my outfit out and do my hair. I decided between three hair styles and picked a faux-hawk. Everyone loved it! I feel good about it. I just want to know Steven's opinion on it.
Techoir turned out pretty good. I loved Kaleem's "Human Xylophone" It was sooo funny.
It was also my last Techoir workday. And I don't think I took enough pictures. Actually, I didn't take any pictures. I blame that on Ms. Brown for working us so hard.
I still remember last year when Isaac came crying into the room. His doggie. It's been a year.
Then to Angie's get-together. Pretty cool. Fazoli's. I got the Chicken Fruit Salad. It was awesome. It was also my first time in that restaurant.
Jesi had to leave for work, and April had to take Jake home. So only Isaac, Hilary, Austin, Angie, Audrey and I went to Wal-Mart. Pretty cool. Not Isaac's tires though. They were pretty much dead.
So we let it, the tire-problem, go and decided to go into Wal-Mart. We looked around the Halloween costume section, craft section, ladies underwear section, and more. Only Audrey bought stuff: two things of bubbles and Fiddler on the Roof. I just bought a pack of gum. I love gum. It's for singing purposes.
After that, we had decided to go to the Movies. The cheapy ones. But the movie we wanted to watch started at 1o p.m. And not everyone wanted to stay until 11:30 out in the middle of the night. So we came to my house. We watched Simpsons. I hope I made a good impression with my house. I'm just kind of sad that Audrey didn't come with us; she had to leave because she was tired. It's understandable. And she also wanted to talk to Casey.
I made two things of Boy Scout popcorn.
Then Sunday. I can't remember much of Sunday, except that our choir director didn't go so we were stuck with ourselves. Luckily, our guitarist, who doesn't speak very much Spanish, became our leader. Since, also, the soloist didn't go, my brother and I sang the Psalm. It turned out okay.
The whole choir wasn't that bad actually. And after mass, the congregation shared a meal in the Parish Hall.
This is when my mind goes fuzzy. Because I can't remember much else. Except that we went to Cici's for lunch/dinner.
Today was okay. I wore my hair in a faux-hawk again because Josh told me to in my agenda. I got more compliments.
People were supposed to stay after to make a banner for The Cannon. Turns out only KiKi and I stayed. She drew it out and I helped color it. It's not done. But it's getting there. Angie is pitching in by making letters so we can glue them on the banner. I like it.
Then Band. We kind of got yelled at. I think it was mainly color guard who didn't know their stuff. I know I didn't. But then again, Baldwin only called out the brass. Hey!
My feet still hurt a little.
Technicians show tomorrow! I'll take pictures with peeps.

Friday, October 3
I can't remember
"Will you go out with me?" I asked him.
"Yes," he said. He then kissed me.
Then I woke up. Deduce your own conclusions on who it was. It's not that hard. Think: who have I been talking about for ages?
Today was Angie's birthday. She's legal now! I called her 6:21 a.m. to wish her a Happy Birthday. I knew she was awake. And I just couldn't wait to wish her a happy birthday. Happy Birthday Angie!
Allright. I'm just going to highlight some special moments of the day. Actually, pretty much everything.
Don't get bored. It isn't boring.
Journalism. I spent time looking up phone numbers and e-mail addresses for colleges so I can inquire about their acceptance to undocumented students. I made sure to include the ones I personally want to apply to.
U.S. History. Nothing much. Today, slackers finished their 47 question test. I was the first one to finish yesterday and I did well. I think.
English. Whoops. Didn't go. I went to that Jerry Rice meeting. Someone had to explain to me who he was. He was funny. But he didn't talk for much time. I was going to take notes on him and quote him for a newspaper story, but it wasn't worth it.
I was supposed to have met April outside of the Forum so we could both go in together and talk or whatever. But she never showed up, it wasn't until later when I found out the shocking truth. Badass.
ICP/Peer Tutor. The class watched a movie so I spent some quality time talking to my friend Summer about random stuff and reading A Lesson Before Dying. It's actually pretty good.
Music. I was greeted with hugs. And then Steven went and hugged me and Joey together. I freaking love the guy. Then Joey and I spent some quality time talking. It was quite fun. I freaking love the girl. Everyone else was watching The Wedding Planner. I've seen it before.
Then we worked on some Christmas songs.
Then during those extra minutes I spend up in the music hall, Ms. D. told me about April being suspended. It really was quite shocking. At first I didn't understand why, but then she said she got caught in a Hall Sweep.
Stupid. Not April. But rather the fact of suspending people early in the morning after having probably just arrived at school.
Stupid.
Lunch. I was pretty miserable because April wasn't there. So I distracted myself by watching other tables being dumb and immature.
Japanese. I walked there alone. But I cheered myself up by holding the door open for Brockelle and Liz.
The quiz was a bit hard. The translation part was. I didn't even write cat right. I feel dumb. I got a 9.8 though (out of 10).
I had totally forgotten about that quiz. It wasn't until I was walking towards Japanese that I remembered. Everyone thought they could've done better.
Adv. Env. Science/SMOGEE. One of the IUPUI teachers went there; Jenny. She's so cute and nice. We talked about our plans on how we are teaching our subjects to the seventh-graders. Now the problem will be getting to and forth. IPS is stupid.
They want us to wait at Shortridge an hour after school ends to come back to Tech. What are we supposed to do that full hour? I have after-school activities to attend to.
After-school-much. I wanted to stay for Ms. Meyer's Orchestra class but she told me to go ahead and go to Techoir and she was going to talk to Ms. Brown about it to let me go to her class every other day during 5th. I want to play violin and bass. I think I mentioned this in my last entry.
Techoir was okay.
Came home. Did some homework. And we left off for haircuts. Yay!
I loved this part of my day.
The guy who cut my hair really took care of me and made me look good.
At first I told him I had gel on since this morning so he decided to rinse it out. It felt so good. Warm water. Him washing my hair. It felt great.
Then he put a towel on my head and led me back to my seat.
Asked me what I wanted. I told him I wanted the Number 2 on the sides and scissors on top. And if he could leave half of the bangs alone and enough hair on top to do a fo-hawk. And he did. He did a great job too. He kept messing with my hair too.
Then he asked me if I wanted him to shave in between my eyebrows (my uni brow). I said sure. And he did. Then, without asking me, he lifted my head up and started going away at my mustache. It looks better now.
"It's more defined," he said.
So I feel great now.
I feel bad that I didn't leave a tip, but then again, it wasn't my money.
I loved him for taking good care of me and fixing me up.
I think I'll wear a fo-hawk tomorrow for Techoir.
"Yes," he said. He then kissed me.
Then I woke up. Deduce your own conclusions on who it was. It's not that hard. Think: who have I been talking about for ages?

Then during those extra minutes I spend up in the music hall, Ms. D. told me about April being suspended. It really was quite shocking. At first I didn't understand why, but then she said she got caught in a Hall Sweep.
Stupid. Not April. But rather the fact of suspending people early in the morning after having probably just arrived at school.
Stupid.
Lunch. I was pretty miserable because April wasn't there. So I distracted myself by watching other tables being dumb and immature.
Japanese. I walked there alone. But I cheered myself up by holding the door open for Brockelle and Liz.
The quiz was a bit hard. The translation part was. I didn't even write cat right. I feel dumb. I got a 9.8 though (out of 10).
I had totally forgotten about that quiz. It wasn't until I was walking towards Japanese that I remembered. Everyone thought they could've done better.
Adv. Env. Science/SMOGEE. One of the IUPUI teachers went there; Jenny. She's so cute and nice. We talked about our plans on how we are teaching our subjects to the seventh-graders. Now the problem will be getting to and forth. IPS is stupid.
They want us to wait at Shortridge an hour after school ends to come back to Tech. What are we supposed to do that full hour? I have after-school activities to attend to.
After-school-much. I wanted to stay for Ms. Meyer's Orchestra class but she told me to go ahead and go to Techoir and she was going to talk to Ms. Brown about it to let me go to her class every other day during 5th. I want to play violin and bass. I think I mentioned this in my last entry.
Techoir was okay.
Came home. Did some homework. And we left off for haircuts. Yay!
I loved this part of my day.
The guy who cut my hair really took care of me and made me look good.
At first I told him I had gel on since this morning so he decided to rinse it out. It felt so good. Warm water. Him washing my hair. It felt great.
Then he put a towel on my head and led me back to my seat.
Asked me what I wanted. I told him I wanted the Number 2 on the sides and scissors on top. And if he could leave half of the bangs alone and enough hair on top to do a fo-hawk. And he did. He did a great job too. He kept messing with my hair too.
Then he asked me if I wanted him to shave in between my eyebrows (my uni brow). I said sure. And he did. Then, without asking me, he lifted my head up and started going away at my mustache. It looks better now.
"It's more defined," he said.
So I feel great now.
I feel bad that I didn't leave a tip, but then again, it wasn't my money.
I loved him for taking good care of me and fixing me up.
I think I'll wear a fo-hawk tomorrow for Techoir.
