Ergo.....um....Noli scio.

Well...I thought I should probably update this thing before they kick me off the site...so...here you go!

So, I'm like totally crushing on these like 15 guys right now...oh mi gods...

But seriously, I just finished a book called "Thinner Than Thou", it's like a diet crazed 1984...except in 2018. Sounds like a great idea, non?

Unfortunately, the author can't write for shit; every other word in the dialogue was either "OK" , "Eeeeewwwwww", or ...some other damn phrase that I can't remember at the moment. And it wasn't JUST the teenagers saying these things, it was mostly middle-aged adults. Also, the book took me 6 hours to read...IT WAS 334 FUCKING PAGES which makes my reading time ridiculous! I had to re-read entire chapters since the book was written so damn badly. I think I saw blood on the beginning of Chapter 4 or 5, I figure that's where the editor gave up and shot himself. It was so horrendous, that it's affecting my writing now. Really, it is THAT bad. She would stop sentences randomly, and put commas in the wrong places...I wanted to cry. Here's an example (straight out of the book, grammar and all.)[note at bottom of entry about quote]:

"She came on to Annie like she had a personal stake in every ounce she ate, whereas Eulalia and whatever Dedicated monster squats at the moniter's station at the end of the hall? They could care less."

The only reason I finished the fucking piece of shit was because the story basis was incredible.

Anyways, I finally dropped latin. I think I may have offended her on the last day. Since Bob wouldn't stop asking me rude questions, and demanding blunt answers....WHILE we were still in this woman's classroom.
I'm really gonna miss that class though. It was so much fun! But I didn't know grammar, and there aren't any tutors in a 50 mile radius. *sighs* I'm really sad I'm outta that class.
...But then again, they do have a huge double-test Monday and Tuesday....and my 'not-being-in-the-class' starts Monday!!!!

What else is new.....hm... I still need to get my mam a christmas present, I still need to sell my Wii (Paypal is being a fuckin' whore), and I need to clean my room/stop sleeping on the couch/put the christmas tree up.

Why the hell am I still celebrating this holiday if I really don't like Jesus, or Christianity?

...Oh yeah, loads of free stuff!

*decks herself out with a crucifix and nun habit* See you suckers later!

{{Note- It's talking about an Anorexic (Annie) who is in sort of a food-nazi hospital called the Dedicated Sisters, and they are trying to cure her of her eating disorder in bad/mean ways. The Dedicated Sisters are kinda religious sisters, since in the book the new and ONLY religion in America is Thinness.}}

Comment please, my dears.
