WEEK FOUR.

Today and yesterday we went on field trips. Oh, joy. I'm not the kind of guy who likes to walk around outside in unbearably hot weather. Today we went out to catch monarch butterflies. I failed my task, due to my fears of both insects and plants, and the fact that they were flying too high, and I am a very short person. Wasn't as bad as yesterday, though, as I had to hike up some hills and stuff. But the actual trips are quite entertaining, as we're a small class so we have some hilarious conversations on the bus.

During lunch on Wednesday, this one kid filmed me being retarded with his camera. He apparently put it on YouTube, but I can't find it. D: I'll ask him aboot it on Monday. In the video, I was being seriously fucked-up crazy, doing some sort of retarded dance. And it wasn't even really so much a dance as it was flailing around violently. Well, if I find the video, you'll see. Also, my goatee is growing nicely. I dunno if you'll be able to see it or not.

Ed Note: If anyone can find that video, you'll be my new hero. LOL

HEATHER

Third week of school.

I found out that half of my teachers (one) like TMBG. This is epic win. On Thursday, we all did this activity where like, our teams got a word, and we had to sing an excerpt of a song that has that word in it. I nearly had a panic attack when the word "sun" came up. GEE, I WONDER WHY. But since nobody else in the class other than me and that teacher have ever heard of TMBG, people were confused. But yes, I sung a portion of Why Does the Sun Shine?. Then, shortly after, our word was "in", and everyone was stumped. It was at this point that Mr. TMBGlikingteacherman began singing Birdhouse in Your Soul. I KID YOU NOT. EPIC WIN.

HEY! WAIT! I GOT A NEW COMPLAINT!

Survived two weeks of school. I wasn't online last weekend due to forces outside my control, but here I am for THIS weekend. I hope I didn't miss anything important.

Here's my school schedule. Keep in mind all my classes are emotional support classes, you know, for the "mentally challenged". But I honestly don't see why all the other kids are in here with me. I'm really the only truly fucked-up one in here.

BLOCK 1: Communications Arts
BLOCK 2: Math
LUNCH
BLOCK 3: Science
BLOCK 4: Comminity-Based Instruction

The CBI thing is mostly us doing volunteer work at like, this bed-and-breakfast place. We also do some other activities and stuff. These first two weeks were surprisingly easy, mostly because it's just the beginning of the year and we're not really doing much work, just getting to know eachother. Oh, and another thing, I don't eat lunch, so I just stay in the classroom and draw and/or write SKF stuff. We has no scanner, so I can't exactly show y'alls.

My birthday was September first, and I couldn't help but notice that none of you bastards got me anything. :p As you could probably tell, I didn't get a laptop. The highlights of my birthday were an MP3 player, a digital camera, and three TMBG CDs (Why Does the Sun Shine?, They'll Need a Crane, and Indestructible Object; I am still waiting for the latter to arrive.). I also got some cash, which I used to buy two Nirvana CDs: Nirvana and In Utero. They kick so much ass. I've been listening to them quite a lot lately. I tried looking for theSTART, but I didn't see anything at the music place this time.

I might update later. I'm all journal'd out. I have to keep a journal for school, too, so... I'm dried up. I'd feel to redundant to post the same stuff here than in that journal. Agghh.

NICK HAS RETURNED.

I'm back from a whole week at Nanny's.

First off all, we do indeed have a new cat. It is a really cute kitten. It's friendly and playful. We named it Skitty. He enjoys sleeping on my neck for some reason. I would probably saw "awwwwww" out loud if I wasn't choking to death. We brought him in the house with us, and threw some balls for him to chase. The one night, we had this laser light things that he chased around. It was hilarious.

I also had two dreams that I should discuss. The first was about terrorists attacking Pennsylvania. They blew up Hershey, a football stadium, and some other big city I can't recall. It was so crazy... there was this whole backstory and kind of a plot going on... I don't really feel like explaining it again. There were lots of weird special-effects, though. Then, the next night, I had another dream. In this one, Mandy came over to visit. Unfortunately, I don't remember it very well... but we were at Mom's house, and I guess they were having a family gathering or something. I dunno. Me and Anna were presumably off doing other stuff, though. I SURE HOPE THAT WAS A PSYCHIC DREAM :D

I had to get another haircut. =/ I got an inch taken off. I got rewarded with McDonald's and Dairy Queen, but... still... I need my hair to be longer...

I played a lot of Digimon World for some reason. The first one, which nobody likes but me. The only thing that bothers me is that your Digimon dies too fast. Before I can even get its stats up enough to actually put up a decent fight against enemies, it dies. So then I have to start over again. So really the only way to win any fights is to have buttloads of healing items. Oh, and Monochromon's mini-game thing is way too hard.

So I've been puppysitting my mom's new dog while everyone's at work, from 5:30 AM to 1:00 PM, give or take. I've used these many, many hours to watch movies and shit online. Mostly the movies in the View Askewniverse. Gotta love 'em. Sadly, the only movies I've seen so far are Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and Clerks II, all of which were mad awesome. I'm probably gonna see Clerks next, if I can find it. Randall and Dante somehow remind me of Joel and Phil (respectively), except instead of talking aboot video games, they talk aboot sex. It's great.

I also FINALLY got around to submitting my entry in Jessa's contest on dA. After many failed attempts, I realized that I wasn't gonna pull off anything super-cool and/or awesome, so I settled on what I actually entered. I think I still have a couple more prototype drawings lying around my room.

Also, apparently Mom had a birthday yesterday, so my aunt took me to Park City to buy her some CDs. Naturally, I bought myself some CDs instead. Abbey Road, Bleach, and Doolittle, by The Beatles, Nirvana, and Pixies (respectively). I did, however, help my aunt find CDs for HER to pay for with HER money and not mine. Because I'm not spending money on my mom. Ever. She ended up getting her some country CDs (my mom likes country) by Toby Keith, Taylor Swift (who my aunt and I could've sworn was on American Idol, but mom insists she wasn't) and Billy Currington, whoever they all are.

We also went out to eat at this buffet called Shady Maple for the party. I ate an assload of breaded shrimp, which I never before realized was so damn good. I also tried some baked apples, which kinda sucked compared to its non-baked cousin. Then, of course, I raped the ice cream bar and fixed up a chocolate and vanilla mixture, topped with butterscotch, caramel, chocolate sauce and crushed Oreos. It may sound delish, but let me tell you, mixing that many flavors isn't as good an idea as it may seem at first. It somehow gave me a headache, and a stomach ache. But to be fair, I ALWAYS get a stomach ache after eating a lot, so.

BAD NEWS GALORE

Buttloads of bad news today.

1. My aunt called earlier, informing me that another of my cats died. It was one of the new kittens. Apparently it had cancer, which we already presumed because of the lump on its stomach. Of course we didn't DO anything about it, and now it's too late. Poor kitty. And now the other kitten has no one to play with. Awwwwwwww. D:

2. WF just got another computer game, so he's going to be kicking me off more often, probably for hours at a time. You might not be seeing me around much anymore. Oh, and on top of that, his mom is going to be taking COMPUTER classes for her schooling. Which means MORE less Internetting for me. AND, when school comes, I have to move back to Nanny's. Meaning NO computer. D: Just a little forewarning. So come the end of August, I'll be gone, unless maybe I can come to Dad's on weekends. But don't count on it. I'll probably keep in touch by sending letters and possibly phoning if Mandy feels like it.

3. I'm probably going to have a few heart attacks someday. I had a reveleation last night, when I had what seemed to be a miniature heart attack or something. I'm presumably extremely unhealthy, so I'm seriously fucked.
