Just got done fighting with my mom about going to a board plan of Chris’! Apparently I perceived, said, & understood everything wrong so she’s mad, well “upset” that I am forcing her to go. Originally she said that she didn’t want to go because shane would then have to stay home alone which she didn’t like the idea of, but I kept on and suggested that I stay home with Shane while she go alone. Next she argues that I should go just as much as her. That was that. Now she refuses to not go, but going with her attitude would be counter producttive in my opinion. Off of that subject, I’ve been sick for awhile but yesterday I threw up at the Laundry & Shower place before schoo. I went to school anyway, even though I had the option of staying home which I turend down. Today I’m feeling a lot better, but my nose is still stuffy. During project period Eli drove us out to Auke Bay Labs & we got a tour and some advice from Larry Holland, our sci fair proj helper as a direct result from that meeting now we have 50 grams or 500 grams of L-ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and the knowledge that using fruits in our expiraments would involve using a 100K & up work of equipment (a bad idea) so he showed us some other options. Also in the past 3 days, I have had 3 people ask for advice on what to do about relationships. The first one was Raliegh Morris & Lisa Mitchell; by today it fell apart. The second was Candice Seils & Nathan Harris. She found out that he might go out with her later on just not right now. The third was between Mara Early & Chester Carson. I’m not sure of the outcome as of yet, but after their talk after lunch he was in a bad mood. As for my relationships, I’m much better at being a friedn. Yesterday I found out what soccer team I’ll be on – an extremely crappy one aside from three other kids including Mike Jackson, Miles something-or-other, Andrew Lawrence and myself. It will be more enjoable to ref at this point. My big project that is due beyond semester isn’t yet done. Other than that, I’m doing fine… Academically that is. —
Our schedule at school today was lame. It took the longest time to reach lunch today. Luckily that time was productive. Eli & I have scheduled an appointment with him on thursday (him being Larry Holland) to help us with our Orange Project. So far he’s a cool guy. We had a sub in math today. His name is Sammy Sims. He wouldn’t let us sit on desks, wear hats, or be tardy or leave. The weird thing is that he was awesome!
I’m still squandering with my 2 large, make that 3 large projects: Russian Home Page, Technology Proposal for Phoenix and the Science Fair Project. We wen’t to a meeting today w/Bill & he covered a lot of the things we’ve already heard, not what we assumed we’d be doing.
On a sour note my mom’s being an ass about the business. Automatically she assumes that I dislike her partnership just be cause I’m tentative about the options which are unknown to me at this point. That’s what we though we would cover in today’s meeting.
Crystal didn’t get her luggage.
Today we (mom & I) went to Udder Culture & had a meeting with Bill, Sharon & Chris Shipler. He gave us a description & invited us to go to see his plan on Thursday. I look forward to going but I’m not sure what my mom thinks about it. Tonight we’ll go talk to bill to find out about family options.
On a different note, Crystal Novotney got back today from San Francisco area (LA & all in between) without her luggage. I wonder if she’ll show up at school tomorrow. I hope so.
Last day of Christmas vacation, unfortunately all good things come to an end.
Today my mom had a meeting with Bill & Sharon about the business. I didn’t go. Instead I hung out at the Nugget mall. While there I filled out 2 job applications, one to kits camera and the other to the Nugget Alaskan Outfitters. I also dropped off a roll of TMax 100 to be developed and get a proof sheet for it. Yesterday mom dropped 6 color rolls at costco. All of them will be done by Tuesday at the very latest. I can’t wait to pick them up. I need to finish my math that I have procrastinated on so far. —
Today I got together with Bill and Sharon and went to a lecture thing at the downtown library. Some guy talked about the research involved with writing his book, some 20 years of reading prepared him. The book was someone’s journal for the 18 months before the declaration of independence or something like that was signed. It was pretty interesting. He read a few exerpts from teh book which made it a whole lot more intriguing. Afterwards I worked at Bill’s shop, Sam’s Auto Body for an hour and a half, scuffing a bumper to be painted later. I then had spagetti for dinner & read a little, up to 99 pages now, but I gotta go – it’s past my bedtime. —
Well, today was a somewhat decent day. I just finished watching a movie called “Striptease” with Demi Moore, an all-right flick. I didn’t think it appropriate for Shane to watch but mom thought otherwise.
I got my teeth cleaned yesterday & Suzie said if I don’t keep care of my gums, my great set of teeth would fall out; I spent most of my movie watching hours with a rubber pick massaging my gums. They bled, but it feels good now.
Just dawned on me: I need to share w/my new electric razor that I got for Christmas – bye for now!
