Well, this is my third attempt to write this update... Lets see if my computer doesn't crap-out this time.
I had a lovely thanksgiving vacation. I got lots of quality time with the budds, the amigos, the pallyz. Did a covert opps mission (much fun). Then, saw "Rent", rented "A Very Long Engagement" (which I now adore, almost as much as "Amélie") and "Reefer Madness", a musical based on an actual 1936 public service announcement movie warning people of the dangers of weed. They tried to tell people weed was more addictive than heroin. Wow, I love propaganda.
Did all the fatty homework. Worked some. Workin on the play. Keepin busy. Very extremely desperately tired. I pray almost every day that we'll get a snow storm so they'll close school and I'll be able to sleep. Its hella depressing getting up when its still semi-dark outside. I hate it, having no motivation in the morning. and I'm mad cuz I missed tonight's South Park. And I can't get "Oh Well" out of my head. Probably doesn't help that I listen to it over and over and over and over.
I hate the book we're reading for english. "Heart of Darkness" .... good LORD its boring. I fall asleep every time I attempt to read it. No joke. I open it up, make it past maybe two pages, and I'm out like a light. I've even tried reading to myself OUT LOUD so that the sound of my own voice would keep me awake. Even that fails. Its just SO STUPID. Its supposed to be one of these great literary classics, oh-so-full of meaning and feeling and so frikkin profound. It comes off as a text book manual on how to make people fall asleep. I'm glad I have it, though. If I ever can't get to sleep, I'll just pull out that good ol' book and I'll be knocked out in a matter of moments. I asked my mom "Is the author dead?" and she said "yes, why?" "Well, good. Then he can't write anything else." I have alot of anger and resentment towards this book.
Everyone come see Washington Park High School's production of "Captain Fantastic"
