And so she said

Here's a shitty paragraph translated from Spanish to English that one of my Spanish II kids wrote.

Stephanie and I to see the movie on on Sunday. We are to see this the house to skate. Where is Thomas? We are to wait for the Thomas and Eric. I introduce you to Elizabeth now. Also, do you like to skate?

I got my eye drained so I’m no longer a hideous beast.

So I went to the doctor about my bleeding disorder and as expected, “everything’s normal.” Oh really? That’s so great, but that still doesn’t do anything about the fact that I bleed for 22 days a month. I hate when they say that shit when everything is clearly NOT “normal.”

My stomach started illing on me real hard last night, which is nice, because I like all my health problems to come at once. I might go to the hospital later, but I’m thinking they’ll run some tests: “Good news, we didn’t find anything wrong.” And that will just be a waste of a co-pay and four hours. All I’m saying is that this better not fuck up my Vegas trip.

So I “broke up” with Cory. A while ago, he was talking about how his job is so hard and how everyone else’s job is so much easier and that no one understands how difficult his job is, and how teachers have it so easy. Right, cause I don’t spend over thirty hours a week outside of school planning for school? And he’s like, well at least you get preps, I get no “down time.” I was like bwahah @ "downtime." Like three preps a week really help me prep for the seventeen classes I teach a week when I don’t even have the time in one prep to plan all the stuff I need for one class. So I was like whatever, you’re an asshole. And then I decided to never have sex with Cory again.

And then whenever I thought about it I just got angrier and angrier and angrier about it. So he’s been pestering me and stuff to sleep with him, and I’m always like, “I’m not in the mood.” And he’s like, what is there another guy or something? He’s asked that before and it pisses me off because it’s such a chick thing to ask. I told him, “Wow, so this is what it’s like to date a girl.” And then I told him that I was about to release some fury.

So I did, basically saying the things that I just wrote about, and I ended it with something like, “you did it. It’s your fault I’m not in the mood and I’ll probably never be in the mood ever again.”

He started saying about how he never really meant that, he was just frustrated with work. I basically didn’t accept that and we haven’t talked since.

So I’m going to Vegas in four days!!! W00t w00t!

Hey, so I finally ordered new contacts, and I ordered four for each eye, thinking I'd get four lenses for each eye, not four BOXES (6 per box) per! Wow, so now I'll be good for like a year! I'm so excited. When I paid 225 bucks for it, I was like damn that's really expensive for eight lenses in total, but damn it's not so bad for forty-eight lenses! I'm amped as hell man. Now I can actually change them every two weeks as recommended instead of every 1.5 months as cheap people do it (like myself).

Here's another reason I'm amped...



So proud of that lol. Myprior record was 46 seconds, and I was super psyched about that too, so this one is just like woosh!

More news to follow...

Okay so at around 1:450a, I got a craving for food, and since as is customary, I have none, I went out to get some. I was going to go to the supermarket like 0.8 miles away go get actual food to cook for tomorrow, but when I walked a block, I was feeling lazy, so I'm like naww, I'll just go to the 7-11, like 0.2 blocks from my house, instead. So I went home and got some cash cause I only had a card for the supermarket. On my way back, when I was about to be in the parking lot, three young guys were arriving at the same time, and I was thinking, as I always do when I see young males, "are these a few young gangsters coming in to rob the store?" (okay I don't always think that, sometimes I think, "are these young fellows going to rape me?") But I decided not cause they didn't even come in a car. So one guy stood outside and the other two went in, and I was like hmmm, is this one guy staying around to rape me? But then the last guy went in and

BAM! Out comes a gun pointed straight gangsta style at the cashier. I was like reaching for the door and I'm like OH SHIT and turn around and jet the hell back home, flippity flopping in total terror. There's like a major intersection right off of the parking lot, and when I was about to run across the street, I was like "oh shit are there cars coming?" And I saw there were, I was like, SCREW IT and ran across anyway.

I was like OOMMMGGGG, I'm so glad I went home to get $ cause if I hadn't, I'da been in that store shitting my pants and crying at that moment. Oh man, that was scary. I didn't hear any gunshots though so that was good, cause as I was running home I just KNEW they were gonna shoot at me, but they didn't. Small favours, huh.

*Breathesssss*

Okay, so Time.com ran an article that 80% of women are wearing the wrong bra size. In fact, the average cup size of American ladies is a 36C, so I'm bringing down the average, just like in Cell Bio class LOL. Since school has been over for two days and already I am incredibly bored and have nothing to do with my time, I went to Vicky's to get measured lol. Gotta make sure those 32Bs are still intact lol. So the girl measures me and she's like "32A." I was like, "I'm a B, bitch!" She just looked at me like wow. LOL, I was like "no seriously, could you check again though," and so she did, and I was indeed a B. In fact, a little over a B. Like a B point 3.

So, ladies, moral of the story: Vicky's measures you wrong the first time.

Aight I'm going to the movies.

That is all.

So today when I woke up there was a strange sight out my window door. So I went outside and was hit by something strange. Warmth! And the strange sight was sunlight! OMG lol I was like, wow this is awesome. And the sea of water in the parking lot across from teh subway station is now just a mere pond. It's cool.

omg check this lady out she's a korean singer.

Ok that's it. This week is about over. Tomorrow we go to farm and Friday 2/3 of seniors are going to PA for a trip. Yay.

Toodles.

So it's been raining for 8 days so far. The streets near where I live are flooded. Some of them are closed, and the ones that aren't kinda should be. Yeah, so thats the BAD part about living near the ocean. I was walking to the train to go to the gym today and for like half a block, I was wading through knee deep water, lol. It was so gross. I was so happy that I had brought a spare pair of socks and shoes so I changed on the train. The ride home wasn't pretty, either, cause the train couldn't go anywhere because of the rain, so I had to take a bus, and I got confused and got off too early, because I saw a Dunkin Donuts and figured it was the Dunkin Donuts near my house. It so wasn't. There's not even a Dunkin' Donuts near my house! It's a 7-11! But I'm not too sad cause I didn't even know where I was so I'm glad to even have made it home, even if it was like a two mile trek in total panic. I was gonna take pictures of the floods, but I had to do phone teaching. Maybe tomorrow, cause it's supposed to be raining for at least three more days anyway.

When I was walking home via an alternate route cause I didn't want to get my good sneakers in the stinking water, I saw a lot of backyards were like oceans. I was like, man it's gonna suck when you guys gotta get out and go to work in the morning and you're drenched before you get to your car. And a parking lot of a condo unit nearby was also flooded. I think they're gonna have to take the train, cause it's like bad when cars have to drive through water like that? I wish it were the end of May, when I could take a guilt-free day off because the grading period is over for seniors. But aww man, so much to teach, so few days. I am soooo not looking forward to trudging through this crap tomorrow morning. Maybe I'll kayak out like the guys in Maine ,



Anyway, the rain has been kind of a bummer, but also kind of good. Cause Boston hasn't had as many shootings as last Sunday, a beautiful sunny Sunday. As my student put it, "when it gets hot, niggas get aggravated."

I saw Akeelah and the Bee today. Cause it was free for teachers, so i was like, hey. It was cute. Kind of a force at some parts though.

Awww I can't believe Malcolm in the Middle and that 70s show are over. I hate change. But they should cancel American Idol though, lol. That show got old like 3 years ago. I was wondering if the Simple Life still comes on. Cause that show needed to be cancelled like three years before it started.

OKAY YEAH AND I TOTALLY FINALLY HAVE AN APARTMENT, NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON. It's in this place called "Wonderland." So whenever I tell people where I live I'm going to add like a little fantatiscal "doo dee dooo la la" Ahh, Wonderland. I'm psyched. When I went for the viewing and interview, I was like, you know what, let me doll it up for this guy to ensure that I get the apartment. So I wore jeans and a shirt instead of the usual xl sweatpants and shirt. I was thinking about putting on makeup, but I got lazy and just put on earrings. Yes, my ears are now bumpy and infected, lol, but I soooo got that apartment. * AMPED *
