Mood swings

Listening to: “Wonderful Tonight” – Michael Bublé feat. Ivan Lins

Wow. Time flies, huh? It’s scary.

Where shall I start? Well, vacation is coming up. No, wait. Let me rephrase that:
“Vacation” starts on the 20th. It ends in less than a month.

Yeah, big deal, right? It’s better than nothing. But I’ll hopefully be moving into my official home during this time—so in other words it won’t be total relaxation.

Then again, since when is life relaxing? Just by doing nothing, it comes up with something. Something to get you worked up about or stressed out about or sad about.. or happy about. That’s life.

Lately I have had the pleasure of tasting those famous mood-swings teenagers are so known to have. Mine mostly seem to come during the night, before I go to bed. I start to feel mopey and miserable. But there have been times where I simply feel sad for no reason whatsoever-- all of a sudden, it comes without any warning.

And I all I want is a hug, a word of reassurance, a shoulder to cry on. But what’s the point of crying if there’s no reason to cry?

My life is a good one. Sure, there’s always room to improve, but I should have no real big reason to be complaining…

I’m not particulary saddy-feelining tonight, thankfully. But if I think too much on the subject, then I will become so. So--! Let’s change the subject!

Hmmm… I am SO glad this semester is ending. I’m also happy to say I’ve made many more friends at this school than in last year’s. The people here in Bahia (which is a different state all together) are much more warm and open, it seems. It makes things easier.

Anyway, I don’t feel like talking about much else. Or rather, I would if I could— and I can, but I shouldn’t—since it’s really late.
.. So good night then!

BEST NEWS EVER!!

One of my best friends, Cristina, is going to move to Salvador-- the very city I am living in-- in July!!! She's also gonna be here for a week starting this Saturday! HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!

Edit: May 14th '08 The funny thing is that I can't stop thinking about it ever since she talked to me about it-- the idea of it is making me happy but it's also making me nervous as well.

We shall haunt you.

I did not study a THING today.

After nearly not making it to one of the very last theatre meetings at school this morning (because they have this stupid rule that you can only be 6 minutes late max-- but I managed to slip in anyway), I took a bus with Adrianna and her brother to their house, with the plan that we'd study Math later in the afternoon with Lorena, for the upcoming test on Tuesday. Yet not only did Lorena come late, we could not seem to concentrate at first. Then, when we went up to her apartment to get a snack (popcorn) and we came back down to the porch at the entrance of the building, the six 7 year-olds playing around there feasted their greedy eyes on our popcorn bag and demanded some!

So we gave them some. But then they went totally BESERK and demanded more and more, until they started to jump on top of us, trying to grab the bag from our lifted arm. At one point I had the bag in my hand, since I was the tallest, so I though "HAH, you little brats won't get it now-- >;D!!" Little did I know they were darn determined, and I thought I was going to fall on the floor. We even went to the lengths of possibly going into the elevator and going back to her apartment, but NO. They just HAD to follow and jump like maniacs. I swear, those kids must have been seriously high on something.

So as you must have imagined, we eventually had to surrender to their insanity (just to get the idea, they even went to eat bits of popcorn that fell on the floor!)-- they got their popcorn and we got our peace to study. That is what we thought the deal was.

Oh, no. We were SO wrong! A few minutes later they started talking to us again (if you call speaking unnecessarily loud "talking"), insisting that they pester us with their odd jokes. Like they even had their own collection of dirty jokes-- in other words, about sex. It makes me realize how innocent my youth at that age was. o_o I mean, what happened to parental control?

So yeah. They went on about stuff-- pure nonsense. (Did I mention one boy was licking the insides of the popcorn bag that I had PUT IN THE TRASH to get the darn SALT taste on his tongue?!) At some point, we even went into the parking lot to see if we could get some peace. But NO, man!!! They followed us there. Only 15 minutes later or so, they said good-bye ("good-bye drunk ladies." they said. I was about to say "Good-bye you stonies!").

After some talking (since we couldn't possibly study properly on a bench), we went back to that dreaded porch and thank god they were gone-- they went upstairs to there little mommies. I fear for those poor mothers. O_o;; Those kids were scary, man!

Then we dragged our conversation to teachers and such, and how Adrianna is infatuated with our History teacher. Lorena could not stop reminding how she really had some doubts about some linear systems... therefore we did study a little bit (I explained to both her and Adrianna the basics on how to do solve a system). If you call that studying.

Despite those facts, I had a lot of fun. We laughed a lot as wells-- and that's always a plus! Now I'm home and... well, I had this huge urge to post about today. Well, mostly about the crazy kids.

On another note:
March and April were just a while ago, and now we're already in May. My birthday is coming the Sunday after this one! Isn't it freaky how this year is flying by? Yup. It sure is. My vacation starts already in the middle of next month! (thank goodness!)

Ramb

I didn't want to recieve just yet, my Chemistry test result, but I did anyway, this afternoon-- just like the rest of class. The grade wasn't good at all-- a 4,6. The average at my school is 6,0 and not 7,0, but in anyone's book-- 4,0 or 5,0 is already really lame. That's what you get when you only get half of the test right. Why did I have to mess up nonsense and forget some stupid detail?!, is what I can't help but think to myself. >_< Bleh.

Anyway, I'm not going to freak and go into a whole panic deal. There is simply no point. I guess I couldn't expect for me to have all good grades in the beginning , although I was hoping so. I'll just have to work hard these next few weeks to study a bit more. (As if I wasn't already studying a lot, right?)

Man, why is it so hot-- there's nearly no wind!~ I could close my door and my window to turn on the air-conditioning but if I did that, the door would block some of my connection to the internet .. ;__; Why, you ask? It's complicated. But that is the condition for it working.

Yeah, I'm rambling.... I wanted to post something, but I can't seem to find something that I really want to talk about. Talking about my daily life isn't always that interesting... So I have a question: What would you like me to talk about next time I post?
