I haven't updated in...well, as very long time. I thought I should post again, because, umm, yeah, I'm not sure, I just felt like it. And I miss reading Julia's entries because thats the only way I ever hear about her anymore, and I was looking to see if Julie posted our rather cruel but halarious thing about Mr. Perkins. And I currently have a computer in my room. It's from my daddy's work and it's a laptop, and the only thing bad about it is it's not very good speakers. But eventually he'll take it back to work.. :(
