i hate smurfs!!!

My brother has this need to watch SMURFS and I had the unfortunate job of having to watch him watch the same f'in episode for an HOUR, that was very very bad. That is why I hate SMURFS.

Stress

Yesterday I was very stressed with homework, chores, taking care of the kids, dealing with my older brother, and the lack of self time has made me very stressed today as well as yesterday. I mean I was so stressed out that I was antagonizing people when I felt offended. Then feeling guilty for the fact of hurting other people's feelings, which leads to more stress since a mere sorry won't cut it since I say that a lot. I do really hope that by the end of the day, I feel relieved of stress as being a burden to me.

Ismene

This is a quote from Ismene from the story "Antigone". "Antigone! Dear sister! Think how hated our father was when he died. How full of shame! He had committed such shame and such sins that, after bringing them all to the light, he gouged out both his eyes! Then she, who bore the double name of mother and wife, took her own life with a rope. Then, both our poor brothers perished in the one day, each of them killing the other with his own hand. And so, now we two are left all alone. Think what awful end we can expect if we go against Creon’s law!

After all Antigone, don’t forget, we are mere women, we can’t fight against men!"

This quote from Ismene shows that she is afraid of Creon and of the laws of Thebes. Therefore although she wants to bury her brother, she can't because she does not want to disobey Creon as well as go against the law. She is pretty much torn between honoring her brother and obeying the law.
If you have any comments on my opinion of the quote, please post a comment.

Track and Field

Dude, track is totally awesome! Although the exercising was a little intense, I got to hang with some friends and next to another "person of interest". Besides, it will get me in shape so I don't have to die of exhaustion next time I run to class (I should make more time to eat more food). There is lots of stuff to do and trust me... you will be tired at the end and you will be sore. But all of that goes away in time so if you want to join, bear with it.

Weird Morning

Good morning guys! The weirdest thing happen this morning. I woke up an hour earlier than should of woken up and I feel fine. I know that it doesn't seem weird or anything but I don't do this often.So that's what makes it so weird. I really do hope that I don't fall asleep during the school hours. I don't think that would happen but you never know.

Rock Band 2

DUDE!!! Rock Band is the bomb! I mean seriously, you can sing, play the drums, bass, and the guitar. If in case you were wondering, I'm good with all the instruments (though i get nervous around people when I sing). To tell the truth... I have a horrible voice but all you need to do is say the words and match the tone. Easy and medium are both based highly on that. When you get on hard and expert, you have to match it perfectly or you will die. The bass and the guitar are played the same way just one is more repetitive than the other. The drums are fun to play on, and aside from the microphone, the most realistic instrument on the game. Singing is the hardest in my opinion, the mic is the hardest. I mean it can show how good of a singer you really are, though as shocking as it may be... it can improve your voice so that you can more life into what you say. Rock Band also allows you to play in a local band or an online band (both are pretty good). So I highly recommend the game to those who want to rock (or to those who are bored if that's the case). Tell me about what you think about Rock Band.

School's a Drag

I figure that school is boring way to learn something. Especially since that you spend SIX HOURS in that prison. That's a quarter of a day and we only use about eighteen hours at most. To wonder what you learn that day will ever be useful later in life. I mean so far, the only classes I like are world history, english, and spanish. All the other classes are boring since they are either not hands on or I know most of what they are talking about. Then again, it could be that I just don't like the teacher. So far, I like going to school so I can hang out with some of my friends or getting familiar with someone else. I do really hope that the school year gets better so I don't die of boredom. That being said, I bid you all to comment or compare thoughts and feelings about this topic.
