I am somehow supposed to be writing five paragraphs about how children learn to speak and learn language (which isn't really learned at all because it is a innate ability or something), except I am not doing that because I do not want to. This is usually my last form of procrastination, unless there is something I feel is a pressing matter and needs to be recorded. Sadly, this is not the case tonight. I decided I am very tired of school because learning is hard and strenuous. Also, I do not have time to learn on account of I must do other things such as explore or read or travel to see someone who is hardly even in the same hemisphere (note: exaggeration). But really, math. I do not care about math. Psychology. I have not learned a bunch so far. I may still give that one a chance. Phonics. No way. Honestly, no way. Cardiokickboxing. Well, if there were leaves on the trees I would rather play about outside. Wind Ensemble. I would definitely trade this class for listening to music with my car windows down. (Singing.) I believe one of my plants is dying. My plant's name is marzipan and I do not want it to die. But I am doing all I can for it, really. If I could, I would go somewhere a little more south right now. North Carolina. And then, in the summer, I would go north. British Columbia. I would like that to be my plan for this year. Unfortunately, I cannot fit plans such as this into my life, so I am unable to carry it out. I am certain, however, that I would trade periodic feelings of delight snow brings for continuous leaves on trees, healthy grass, bushes, flowers, weeds, etc. And I like to not have to bundle up. I also like to feel a little cold air and be able to view that as comforting. I like to eat salad, though, because it reminds me of summertime. One time my mom had our salad bowl sitting on the kitchen table (empty) and my cat laid in it. I cannot wait to get a kitten. I would go for a dog, as I know some people are cat-haters and others are dog-preferers, but I don't think I could handle the upkeep. Also, I enjoy how cats just lay around and do whatever they please. And you cannot train them, so they just do the things that seem most natural to them. I like how they watch things and purr and everything else. And kittens are cuter than puppies anyways. I just came to a conclusion, actually, about all these matters. Kittens and puppies and baby lambs are really cute, and when they grow up, they are sort of beautiful in this exotic mysterious way. But you know, I do not think babies are all that cute. And then humans are just strange looking. So I discussed this matter briefly with the person who lives in my room, and she said babies are more like salamanders. And you know, I think she could build quite the case on that.
