the root of all evil

I'm at school right now. in keyboarding class.
i finally got to talk to people online yesterday after not for the longest time.
i had a really good talk with Trey whom i work with. he is way cool. he gave me a really nice compliment. said i was one of the coolest people he's ever met. Geoff said something similar to that.
I dont' get it. i really am not.
my parents are making me talk to a counsler. i find it funny, but whatever...it's their money.
i'm grounded for a month. a month. i think that's a bit much. one time sneaking out when i never have before...it's too much. whatever.
I missed out on a pretty cool party on Saturday night. Oh well. In reality it was probally lame.
I worked over 25 hours this week. no! i work 32 hours!! with both jobs put together. that's insane. kind of. some people work more then that. i'll be making the BIG BUCKS.
and i'll do my best to save that money. save it for the future. save it for California.
I was thinking about joining the Army Reserves. It'd be a really big risk...but they give you up to $27,000,000 in money towards college, plus you work for one saturday out of the month and for that one day you get $500. PLUS when you go to bootcamp you get a lot of money there. Darin (this one girl i know who did it) got $5,000 during the summer.
but is it worth...
the risk?
I hate money.
I wish there was no such thing.

MOney is the only thing back from keeping me from my dreams. Money is the thing that is driving me to flip burgers.
In this class we just wrote out a page about things BIll Gates said.
he said, "Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping-they called it opportunity."
Soooo yeah.
Still all the work i'm doing, just for a lousy dollar. MOney sucks.
but it's there, so i may as well live with it. Make it, save it, try not to spend it.
I made a shirt...well no i drew on a shirt. It says "Animal Collective" on the front, and on the back I drew a big leaf and bees. funny cause they have a song called 'Leaf House' and another called 'Bees'. So yeah i thought it fit. I really like it. I did it last night while others were watching the super bowl.
Yep, we had a super bowl party. Had like 4 families from church come over. Cool that my parents did that.
I don't want to get old. EVER. "I wanna stay 18 forever" Well...i'm only 17. but yeah once I turn 18 i want to be 18 forever.
It'll suck being out in the real world on my own soon. Suck, but be fun. Be really hard, but i'm excited to learn. excited to make something of myself.
Leah and I were talking about how we hate how our lives are so trivial. Maybe that's why i'm say to chill abotu some things. Cause i don't care. I think that my life is so simple and not hard that i don't even have to worry about my stupid selfish problems. there are other people out there who have it far worse then me. Who have been through so much more then i have. who know so much more. We were talking about how we sometimes feel like everything we do is pointless...
fake friends (being nice to people we don't even care about)
busy work at school
cleaning our rooms
other crap
I guess i don't think about the first one too much as being pointless. I think that's what really makes me happy in life. Talking to people. Making friends. Being friends with everyone. That's why i want to be a counsler when i grow up...
to help people.
be around people.
talk to people.

must go, the bell's about to ring.
peace
