she's bad and she knows...i think that she knows.
"HOT DAMN!"
oh j.timberlake....anyhoo.
turns out i dont know anything. i wasnt helping kg kids. it was pre-k. and there were 19 of them..not 18. there were so many odd moments FOR EXAMPLE. i took my favorite trouble maker, evan, to the potty and i asked him "evan...are you done?" "yeah!" he comes out....no pants..no diaper. ripped his pull up in half and threw it out.....thank you evan. thank you very much. crazy kids.
anyway. the 30 hour famine was alot easier than i thought it would be. think i could have gone for 48 hours. we raised over 1000 bucks which is awesome. OH YEAH. we also went to the grocery store and got food for the food bank in montclair. the youth leaders made it a competition to see who could get the most items and the most weight for 50 bucks. we broke up into partners. me and my love chris (TEAM MAGENTA!) won....we got 20 bucks each lol. good x's. over 1000 lbs of food was donated to the food bank.
anyway..the good will fest continued and we made back to school packages for local kids who cant afford them. binders, notebooks, pencils..you know. there were alot of them and we dropped those off at the vcc.
so...peace on earth...good will towards men. good deeds are fun....however. a really dramatic part of the past couple days was the candle ceremony we did. statistics show that every 6 seconds a child dies from starvation. we had numerous candles lit around this big table and every six seconds one of the youth leaders would tap and we would have to blow out the candles around us. alot of us cried. its so..unbelievable. completely unbelievable. scary.
saturday and sunday night were nice. i cleaned my room. put on my cool new sheets and did my laundry. i actually have been having a sex and the city marathon. visions of cat lady danced in my head cuz i was sitting in the recliner with my cat sitting on my lap with my glasses on, all bundled up, folding laundry and i was talking to the tv.
IM CRAZY. for those familiar with sex and the city....i've transferred to team big as opposed to team aidan. mr. big is such an arrogant, indecisive, apathetic asshole..........but apparently i find that attractive? "happy birthday, baby"
summer is coming to a close. and im okay with it. im ready to go back. i've had time to clear my mind and create a new philosophy since my old one wore out. and my new philosophy is "first things first, i does what i do" OR "im already boss, im already fly"....jk. its from this song. but i am pretty boss =D. no, but really. the philosophy isnt so much...a phrase. its more like a state of mind. i let myself get distracted by unimportant things and honestly..if i could achieve all i did last year while pushing the majority of my energy into lost and empty causes...what will i be capable of when im 100% focused on my future and things that actually matter. im thinking tunnel vision. OPERATION TUNNEL VISION! lol. its gunna be good.
speaking of my future. im almost positive syracuse is it. im going to boston u. and northeastern a couple days before band camp. so that should be fun. my recommendation teachers. im thinking lynch and white officially. powell would write me a good recommendation but i've only had him for roots of civ and sociology. while i've had white for ap eng. and journalism....=/ he knows me more academically anyway as the lovely dani pointed out
i called adam to ask him for drum majoring advice. he helped a whole lot. took away alot of the anxiety. he's leaving. allison's leaving. devon's leaving......what?!?! its so weird. thats gunna be us soon.......SOOO READY. lol.
in closing...i write really long entries for no good reason. i just like talking to myself.
NEW MEMBERS PRACTICE ON WEDNESDAY! I KNOW YOU ALL KNOW. IM JUST REMINDING MYSELF BY REMINDING YOU!!! lol.
oh yeah..summer colds blow.
happy rest of august =]
