what's up? not much. got a lot going on in my mind lately. particularly about what i've become. i don't know if it's for the worst but i'm sick of my friends putting me on guilt trips for stupid things. it's really pissing me off. i'm not a bad person. i know my priorities. i'm just busy and stressed out. and under stress, i'm always going to act differently than normal. ugh it's so frustrating dealing with my thoughts. i think that i'm 100 percent independent on the outside, but on the inside, my story is a little different. there's a lot to it. i'm just having difficulty deciding who i am, what i'm all about, and what my strong beliefs are. it's more difficult than it sounds. god damn. i can't even stress enough how frustrated i am lately. i need to take a break from everyone and everything right now but i know i can't. i need my job. i need to save up for christmas presents for all of my friends and family. i need to go to school. i don't even know if i need to be writing this. but i know that it's helping me in my mind. i have too many things i need to do. i wonder what i'll be like in college. probably really stressed out. just like i am now. alright. enough. i'm stopping. so i went to jeff's suprise birthday party today. he was very shocked. hehe all of you should have seen the look on his face. it was humorous. we ate pizza and cake and had a good time. i hung out with billy and jeff then for a few hours while they fixed his damn speakers. ugh. it took forever. but i still had fun. my mind is going insane right now. i have too many thoughts about too many things. i think i have low self esteem. for real. i don't know for sure if it has any effect in any of my choices lately, but i'm under the impression that it does. that sucks. i guess that there isn't much i can do to fix it. just deal with it. which reminds me of something else i want to mention. drama. just let it go and forget. stop talking to me about it. i have no opinion and i just don't care. no stance. no point of view. i just DON'T CARE. if that isn't clear then yea. anywho i've got an essay to write. here's the intro and first part of body 1.
Family, art, religion, morals; all of these are important factors in American culture. THen there is music. Music has been in existence for ages, some cultures even use "music as a means to pass on stories"(Leymarie 2). But what about American culture?

information after it was given to them in a song
