Im having trouble deciding just exactly how to say the things on my mind just now, so I think I'll just go with the flow. I've been going through this phase lately where I've been listening to a lot of ska. In ska music they tend to sing about issues, not only political issues but social issues, things about the way people can act and the stupid things they value and worry about, and it makes me think a lot. I got a test grade back from history class (the first history class I've ever taken) and I got a B. I don't quite see how a B in a college history class is so bad, but my parents are pissed. I remember just like a month ago I was so ready to grow the fuck up and get off to UCSD to study marine bio, and for the past couple weeks and right now I have been realizing how stupid it was. I'm 15 years old, and I'm only going to be a teenager once, why should I waste it? I want to be in a garage band and write songs about how stupid my parents are. I want to ride my bike. I want to spend time chilling out with my closest friends, not leaving it all behind to become an adult ahead of my time. I have so many years ahead of me to do that. I think the main point that I'm trying to get across is don't waste your youth. You won't get it back. I think i might write a song about this, and post it for you later. No promises.
