You Know It's Way Too Hot When...

1. You seriously consider leaving the car on while you shop so the AC will be cold when you get back. 2. The idea of going down the driveway to get the mail makes you nauseous. 3. The radio station meteorologists can't agree on whether it's 100, 105, or 110. 4. Putting on underwear feels like... Sign in to see full entry.

Wake-up call

This summer has been full of sudden revelations for me. At the PHS 2006 Graduation Ceremony, I realized that two of my best friends are now considered adults and won't be there at break to laugh with me next year. By October, Alysha will be a mother and Sara will be on her way to a teaching degree.... Sign in to see full entry.

Why I love my life

Thank God for small miracles. A friendly neighbor who helped to install a new car battery so I can get to a job interview. The car salesman who gave my mother a credit break and a reliable vehicle. A group of relaxed editors willing to let me write for them. A daycare director who doesn't care I... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm going to shove roman candles up their noses...

I knew I hated 13-year-olds for a reason. Last night, at about 1am, just as I was getting ready to head to bed, I was scared out of my ever-loving tooties by some horrid pounding on my door. My first reaction, the one that sent me gallumphing down the stairs into the living room, was that the... Sign in to see full entry.

Tandra has stepped out to have a nervous breakdown, please leave a message

I'm going nuts. Am I the only one in this universe that gets a rush of adrenaline after finally letting someone know how you've felt for a long time? Admitting a weakness, and then hours later, feel like you're going to collapse from heart failure? Reminds me of an episode of Spongebob I watched... Sign in to see full entry.

His perfection makes me sick!!

My b/f and I are carrying on a long-distance relationship, so the only way for either of us to alert the other that something is wrong is by saying it. Not something I'm good at--I've found a subtle yet nicely executed "screw the world!" attitude acts as a good signal that something is up. So when I... Sign in to see full entry.

Commencement 2006

Well, I did much better than I thought I would. Tonight was graduation night for the 2006 Seniors of PHS. It happens every year, of course, but this year it meant me and my little quartet would officially be cut down the middle--my girlfriends Sara and Alysha both graduated, as did a lot of others...

I AM A SENIOR!!!!

Well, I have finished my exams, passed, and I am going on to the next grade. Of course, I celebrated this yesterday when I came home in a mature way... "I-am-a-SENIOR! I-am-a-SENIOR! I-am-a-SENIOR!" I chanted, all while doing some weird, impromptu clash of the mambo and nanna-nanna boo-boo. (No, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Words of Wisdom...if that's what you wanna call it...

The wise words of my biology teacher, Mr. Godwin.... "I know everything. I just have trouble remembering it all at once." "Yes, Will, you have a photographic memory...you're just out of film right now, right?" "See, you have to think outside the potato chip bag sometimes...." "Will, how stupid do...

YAY! It's reproduction!

Unlike many other schools, Princeton Union School does not hold sex ed classes for the middle schoolers. So, naturally, by the time they hit sixteen, everything they know about the "dirty deed" they've learned either from their parents or well-experienced peers. All I can say at this point in time...
