I dunno.. im just bored...  but anyways, I got an A on my political science test. So im  happy about that considering that im usually really bad at that subject.

I spent most of the day today at brandon's place. We watched 13 Going on 30 and ate cookies. I really liked that movie. If only you could go into the future and then be able to go back and change things to the way you want it. But that movie made me want to work for a magazine so bad. It looks like such a fun job. I think im going to take it into serious consideration.. not just cuz i saw it in the movie... just because i like that kind of stuff. I would love to be the one who comes up with the ideas of what to write and what pictures to use and the format.. stuff like that. Maybe i should switch my major to advertising or something because i know i don't want to do this criminology thing anymore. It's weird because i used to be so interested in it, but now its like.. all the interest is almost all gone. I dont know. I change my mind so much that im scared to pick any one thing. I just hope that i find something that i like and that i think ill be good at soon. I hate being undecided... it makes me nervous. I always feel as if im running out of time for some reason.

I read this ghost story. It's actually a true account of this woman and her family who moved into a "haunted house." The book is written by the lady herself.. so it felt even more like i was experiencing it too. It's the best book that i have ever read. It was super scary though. I was afraid to go to bed and be in the dark. Kinda stupid.. but you would feel the same way if you read it. But it was just amazing to see all the occurances that happend to this family. After about 10 years of living in the house they finally asked a medium (a type of pyschic) to come to house and cleanse it ... aka... get rid of the ghosts. And they ended up finding out why they were there and the explanations of what they were doing and why. It turned out that the spirits were buried alive by a bunch of rocks falling on them over where the house was built. They had stayed alive for about 5 days and when they died.. they didn't know they were dead. The medium directed them to "the light" and then they were gone. I totally believe in this stuff though. I mean.. why not? It's not that far fetched really. It interests me a lot. I feel like i know a lot about it now though. I'm not trying to be weird or anything.. i just find it so interesting. It makes me not scared to die now that i know more about how it's going to be. I mean i believe in going to heaven and everything.. i dont know what that will be like there.. but i know that it's going to be a happy place.

My most favorite band in the whole world (blink 182)  broke up..... im depressed! But at least i got to see them in concert before it happened..... im still sad about it though. :(

Im in love with donnie darko... not the actor who plays him... the character himself...
-Donnie: [taking a cigarette] What will happen if you tell mom about this?
-Samantha Darko: You'll put Ariel in the garbage disposal.
-Donnie: Goddamn right I will.
