Lets see
1. Summer is going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too fast 2. Just got back from Boston, cool place 3. I have been being really bad and not taking my meds, my docs gonna kill me....
But other then that it's all good here.
I can't believe it has almost been a year since all the bad events that took place last summer. It doesn't seem like it has been that long. It seems more like a blur actually, I mean the school year went by normally, but everything before that is a blur, and now it's starting again.
Couldn't you ever swear that some occurances were just dreams? |

Last night was a lot of fun. Went to an advisory dinner at Bertucci's. I must descibe what I ordered:
Shrimp Trentretti (I'm not really sure what the T-word was) and peas
It was amazing!!! Shrimp and peas over pasta drenched with asiago cheese!!!!
So from there we proceeded to talk about random things, like how mrs. moores house was almost broken into the other night- which got me thinking about my favorite show ever....HOMICIDE!!
I'm such a dork I spent the rest of my best buy cards buying season 3 of Homicide. Hey more Munch and Bolander to laugh at! O well at least I didn't spend it on SVU- that show is my drug of choice and I am literally addicted.
So..exams are officially over and they can seriously kick my houses' brick wall (I think that will hurt more then if they kick my ass)
I am not sure what to do with my time anymore. I've applied at the Towson library and at Rite Aid (don't ask) so hopefully I'll be doing something other then staying home.
So tonight going to an O's game with the padres. And I'm kind of scared this Sunday is my dad's girlfriend's daughters graduation party and I'm going. Now I've met this people a couple of times before. But I'll be so alone. It just seems like every weekend now we have to see them. I'm not trying to be a brat, because honestly they are sooo nice and I like them a lot, its just annoying sometimes.
O well! must go clean the house before my mom kill me "cemetary dead"-TEWWG
Hmmm do I have a quote to leave with....Oy all I've got is my Irish Wit and Wisdom book
"If you wish to have a man fall in love with you offer him a drink. If he accepts (as he surely will if he's a Irish) say three times to yourself 'Thee for me Me for Thee And for none else'" |

So yesterday was Physics Day- overall it was a pretty good time. And today is FRIDAY!! Although I am not looking forward to transporting the dogs from my house to dads house- Josie wails the whole time she is in her crate. Also at dads house the thermistat is turned all the way up- but we can't control that because it is an apartment and the thermistat is upstairs. It's actually quite funny because the neighbors who live above us are really really nice, but they're from Trinidad Tabago- so I'm guessing they're just used to the heat. It's really cool every Sat. (it's their Sabbath though I don't know what religion they are) they sing the most beautiful songs. |

I'm extremely tired and I've already slept twice in the car today. Well hey it's been a big day. Today I was at funeral for another cousin. Fun Memory of him:
When I was really little I was obsessed with Disney's version of Robin Hood. I used to make everybody call me Maid Marian and I would run around with a blanket on my head pretending it was a veil. Most people would call me Maid Marian for a day or less then resort back to Joanna. But my cousin Matt never forgot. In fact he called me Maid Marian everytime I saw him up until the last time I saw him. He never let me forget it. I feel sort of bad because at times I may have given him looks like "why are you still calling me that?" But honestly I was happy that he called me that and I know now that it is something I will truely miss. |

February. Get ink, shed tears. Write of it, sob your heart out, sing, While torrential slush that roars Burns in the blackness of the spring.
Go hire a buggy. For six grivnas, Race through the noice of bells and wheels To where the ink and all you grieving Are muffled when the rainshower falls.
To where, like pears burnt black as charcoal, A myriad rooks, plucked from the trees, Fall down into the puddles, hurl Dry sadness deep into the eyes.
Below, the wet black earth shows through, With sudden cries the wind is pitted, The more haphazard, the more true The poetry that sobs its heart out.
-Boris Pasternak

GOOD MORNING BALTIMORE!!
Well ok so it's Sunday morning. I'm a little freaked about this afternoon. I'm going with my dad, my grandparents and a few of my aunts and uncles to take my great-grandmother out to dinner.
Ok nothing scary right?
Wrong.
I'm honestly not trying to be mean, but sometimes very very old people scare me. My great-grandmother is 95 and suffering from dementia and possibly altz-heimers (however you spell that) So she is liable to do anything and I really hope I don't mistakenly do something to upset her.
But that is not the only reason
Ok a little family history:
My grandmother married another man before she married my grandfather. The product of her first marriage was my father. Also combined with the fact that my grandmother was apparently from the wrong side of the tracks my great-grandmother and her never quite got along. Not to mention my great-grandmother never recognized my father and basically ignored him his whole life.
Then one Christmas or something after my dad and my mom had gotten together my great-grandmother decided to distribute presents. Everyone got something very nice, except for my mom who got like a earthenware something or other.
Then another Christmas after I was born she also decided to distribute presents...and presently forgot I existed. (I have no actual memory of this and frankly don't care, but apparently my dad did)
So i'm worried that at tonights dinner she will some how miraculously remember who she hates us and I dunno get upset.
O well we shall see! |

IT'S MY PARTY AND I'LL BRAG IF I WANT TO BRAG IF I WANT TO YOU WOULD BRAG TOO IF IT HAPPENED TO YOOOOUUUU!!!!
16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 ok whoo! enough
Last night my parents took me to Bahama Breeze- it is a very nice place. The waiter was so cool, quite hot, and quite cool. He looked a lot like Marc from Empire Records- just with a different hairstyle, wait hey! That guy was in Sweet Home Alabama- thats what he looked like- the waiter looked like the guy from Empire Records in Sweet Home Alabama. Wow that was confusing. Anyway my dad mentioned to him that it was birthday- luckily I had already made my parents promise they wouldn't make anyone sing to me. But when dessert came the waiter dude brought out my cake with a makeshift candle (they had run out of candles)and tried to light it with a light, but it wouldn't light so he held the light with the makeshift candle to my face and told me to blow it out. I was happy.
Well today was good. I got a book of Jewish Humor that has me rolling with laughter. Also today had study group from 1-5- turned out to be a lot more fun then I thought and the time went really fast. After that I stopped at the towson town festival, unfortunately I didn't stay very long, but I saw a few people from Anne's party.
Had good fun today. Feels good being 16. |

It's odd
For the first time in months I have been thinkning about my cousin a lot. I'm don't even know why. I feel like I'm being annoying and horribly redundant but it has just been on my mind resently. I tried co-vertly mentioning it to my parents but I don't think they truly understood, maybe I just wasn't obvious enough.
I dunno |
