Hello, my treacherous friend.
*sigh* Oh where to start?
Okay, so on parent-teacher night, my parents of course saw Ms. Losito and she of course told them about the quarterly due the next day. So they pretty much yelled at me and told me they were mad because I 'lied'. That's annoying. I don't feel the need to let people know menial facts about my life and yeah, it does apply to my parents too. So I went to work (barely though, because I'd already decided I'd hand it in on Monday with one extra credit thing so it'd be like I handed it in on time with no extra credit) and came down two ours later.
So Friday, I worked my first day at Gamestop. Definately not as fun as I thought it'd be at the tender, naive age of 12, but still rather enjoyable (I mean, it is work). The most annoying part though, is I had to come to terms with the fact that I've fallen out of the gaming world for the past many months. I mean, I've got X-Play episodes eating up space on my DVR, waiting to be watched since, like, August. and at some point, a customer asked how much the Wii was and I said $150 and a coworker said $250, correcting me. Ughhh!!! I have been Nintendo's loyal slave for years! I should know the price of their hottest console!! AND my mom called Gamestop earlier in the week looking for a Wii pre-order but they'd sold out already and when she called to tell me, I didn't feel ANYTHING! No remorse for not lunging at the phone the second pre-orders began. I didn't even tell my mom to check Best Buy! What the hell is the matter with me?!
Ugh, but anyway, besides an incident where I let a kid walk out with an empty game case (thank God he chacked his bag before he left), my first day went off rather well. Oh, there was also this one kid who, after me telling him his total of $43.11, handed me a $20. We stared at each other for a couple seconds and until I repeated it. Then he hands me another $20. So I repeat it again and the kid hands me a $100. I hate customers already.
So after work, my mom's waiting to pick me up and drive me home, and the entire way she's lecturing me about putting off my assignment and then asks me if I think I'll do it again. Now, I've asked myself this everytime I do this to myself; the AP Global paper, Ms. Brooks' paper, andn absolutely everything else. So, being totally honest, I said "probably". So then she go lecturing me again, saying "Oh really? Well if this were college, you'd've flunked out already." and long story short, she takes away my Ok Go concert. Well, this got me rather mad. Thursday night she's mad I lied for not telling her about the project when she asked if I had homework, and now she's mad I'm being honest. Really, it's probably just she thinks she's getting me to wise up and stop procrastinating. Not working, by the way, I'm doing it right now.
To be totally honest, my parents have never seriously punished me. They've told me I'm not allowed to watch T.V. or go on the computer many times, and every time I've watched or gone on less than a day later, let them see me, and they don't do/say anything. So basically, I've no idea if I'm going to see OK GO in three weeks or not, and I'm not dumb enough to bring it up. The quarter ends November 9th, so maybe if they see good grades (which they should) they'll reconsider.
Mr. Camarata has taken to calling me kid. That annoys me.
Upon seeing the ending of Jane Eyre, I've lost all interest in reading the book. Happy endings are never real and they're always pointless.
Saw the end to Devil May Cry 3. Kinda made no sense but now I know why it's called Devil May Cry.
Final Fantasy XII is out. I've heard all amazing things and yet I feel no rush in going to Gamestop and picking up my pre-order. Again, what the hell is wrong with me?
