Of all the wrotten luck. Keep in mind, I wrote this a year ago on the first day of school. My writting was rusty. Half of this stuff is true, although I tend to be a lazy stubborn person. I did get my permit, just a month later. This is my dad's fault. I am about to get my licence. Yes, it took that long. I also found a few colleges that I am interested in. However, I don't know if I can get into them. I took my ACT and only received a 19. Oh joy, I need a twenty. Volunteering was a waste. I volunteered at an animal shelter and relized something. I don't like dogs. I don't want to be a Vet anymore. Great. As for the summer job, good luck to anyone looking for a job in this economy.
AP ENGLISH III JOURNAL ENTRY #1
One short term goal to acheive this year would be to get my driver's permit this saturday (even though I should be driving already). Another would be to figure out what college to go to after school. Also, I need to save money and maybe start finding some shcolarships. I would like to pass the SATs and ACTs which will also help me with school. Finding a place to volunteer at would be a good idea since I need more hours for NHS and the place that I applied for was filled. Volunteering would also help me get a job this summer.

Confessions of a Twitter Nerd
This is one of many of my journal entries from last year's Junior AP English class. I like this one the best. I even had the courage to speak my sorry-shy-ass up and read it to the class. I'll be posting more of these but in the mean time, this one will be first in line.
I have to give a narration before you read it though. The entry may speak for itself, but I want to give you some insight. I wrote this when Twitter used to say "What Are You Doing?" instead of "What's Happening?". When I was in love with my Twitter. Yes, more in love than Facebook. This was before I stopped my obsession over my "favorite musician" talked about in the entry. This was before I knew that lots of people role play on Twitter. I was very naive. I also had way to big of an imagination. Unfortunately I still do, otherwise I wouldn't have a Twitter role playing account.
This is my old Twitter confession.
AP English III Journal Entry #22
In this day in age there are many new technologies that are yet to be announced. There are so many things to keep us occupied. Ranging from all of the new things that we can do, for example, with satellite TV, the Internet, gaming systems, and so forth.
One of the most many extraordinary applications is Twitter. When it comes to the Internet, Twitter is one of the more basic and simpler applications and the best by far. "What are you doing?" That is all that the website asks. But besides updating what you are up to or stalking your favorite movie star, Twitter is useful for a number of things. A lot of people use it to share their businesses, ideas, write reviews for movies or books, or even tell their followers what music is popular.
Twitter can also be the site for massive fan-fic. Never in your wildest dreams would you imagine reading what your favorite movie or book character is doing past their movie or book, let alone "talk" to them. Really? This questions me sometimes if these the real thing or just an obsessive fan's sick joke to the richly imaginative human mind. To think that this person is just another nerd (like you) making up their own stories is appalling. And yet, people still find themselves talking to their favorite superhero about what they ate for lunch yesterday. Then again, there are the wackos who try and talk to their favorite musician even though they know deep down in their heart that they will never answer them back.
