All my Relay For Life shit didnt work out.
and i didn't Really feel like doing it that much afterwards
so i just donated all the money i raised; and thats it.
was bummed all weekend for not doing it
but not much i could do for about it than so i just tried to make the best out of it.
Went to school today and heard all the fuckin amazing stories and stuff
Now I deeply regret not doing it.
But we did have a garage sale on saturday mornining, raised 268 bucks and donated it to relay plus the money i raised before the event
so it came out to around 480 bucks. i was proud of myself, didnt think i would raise a quarter of that amount.
but also at the garage sale, i realized something that ive always been told; i just never listened
but We are so fuckin lucky to be who we are. economically. i sold my old bike for 15 bucks, and this little hispanic dude wanted it so bad and his birthday was this week, so his mom told him that she didnt have enough money for it so if he wanted it itd have to be his birthday present also. and so the kid agreed and rode the bike to the car as happy as can be. idk it just made me really realize how lucky i am. i mean if my old junk is good enough to be this kids birthday present, i cant really bitch about all the stuff i dont have. i dont know if that all made sense or what but yeah. i think we are all real lucky to be who and where we are.
on a funnier note: My parents are freaking cruel. see my little brother pretty much uses the TV as his clock and knows what happens after like certian shows. so ever since daylight savings time my parents make him go to bed an hour ealier after he finishes watching Fairly Oddparents. haha it makes me laugh.
