| So, it's the start of my senior year in high school. I still have trouble sleeping eeeaaarly though. Anyway, the point of this blog is just my thinking late at night because I have issues falling asleep. Now, the song I chose is very significant and tells somewhat what my blog is going to be about. The topic of the day is drinking and then driving. Now last year, after the school's senior prom, my school has this huge party on a cruise ship, sort of to stop kids from having after parties where they drink at. After this cruise ship party, kids usually return to the school at around 4, 4:30 in the morning and are passed out from being up for so long. They would be up and about from 4 in the afternoon and until, well, 4 in the morning. In between, the seniors would return to the school at midnight to change out of prom gowns and tuxedos, then onto buses to go to the cruise ship dock. I heard the cruise ship not being too great.
ANYWAY, onto the topic at hand. After prom night, these three kids decided to get drunk at like 4, 5 in the morning. Then without sleep, they decide to drive, even though they've been drinking. At 7:30 AM, a mother, 67, and daughter, 41, died (well technically right at the moment, the mother died and the daughter died in the hospital) because of drunk driving. It was three kids that were at my school's senior prom, drinking afterwards. They tried to run and escape, but they were caught. They were all taken to the police station, but only one kid got sent to jail.
Now, I'm not really one to talk because I have never gotten drunk or had alcohol, other than a sip of wine. Tell me, why would you get drunk that early in the morning and then go driving after having no sleep in at least eighteen hours (taking into account the time it will probably take to get ready for prom night). To me, it's a stupid choice. Drinking is a stupid choice. I asked people why others drinking. I get somewhat the same answer "because it makes them feel better" or something along those lines. How does drinking make you feel better? Does it give you like temporary amnesia, so you can forget about all your problems in the world? Sorry, sweetie, but alcohol doesn't make the problems disappear, you do. The same goes for drugs except drugs will probably do worse for you. Now I don't mind the smart drinkers. You know, the people who don't drink heavy and don't drive drunk. I was probably the only child in elementary school and health class in high school, who actually listened about how to be safe when drinking. You're supposed to wait one hour for every ounce of alcohol drunk. Although after going through health class and stuff, it turned me off drinking forever. In fact, in third grade, I made a vow to never get drunk or do drugs in my life ever. I wouldn't be surprised if I never have a sip of alcohol ever again... Unless I accidentally swallow Listerine  . Just saying.

| sorry that i barely update this thing. my life is pretty uneventful. ive been spending massively this month and i feel so bad about it, but its stuff ive been looking forward to getting, i just didnt know id be paying for it all this month. anyway... is there anything to talk about... lets talk about everything ive done this month. we had a chorus adjudication on april 4th, that was fun i guess, there was a dance party afterwards. the tennis seasons started. we had an AP chem practice exam on april 11th, and i got the highest score in my class with 3 points away from a 4, i was so mad... anyway, we had our last science meet of the year. my group had to build circuits and we came in 8th place out of how many schools? im not sure... on the friday before vacation, april 17th, we had a NHS lockdown, where we stayed awake in the school for 24 hours. and today i went to the bookstore with one of my closest friends. we had loads of fun, i got 2 books and a brand new journal, im so pumped. i gave up on reading the book ive been trying to finish. it was a memoir about dating abuse. it was soooo boring and ive only been reading to get to the part when her sister disappears and ends up dead in her sisters exboyfriends car. anyway, i have quite a few options for a book to read:
-Option 1: 2-book series about a teenage female spy that goes undercover in a high school and falls in love with a kid that goes there
-Option 2: If I Should Die Before I Wake about the girl that hates jews and gets into an accident, then taken to a jewish hospital and has visions of being a polish jew during the holocaust
-Option 3: Kissed by an Angel, which is a trilogy in one book about a girl whose boyfriend died, becomes her guardian angel, and tries to protect her from the killer
im leaning towards reading option 2 because it was really narrowed down to option 2 & 3. option 2 was the shorter, and im going to be interrupted by summer reading pretty soon, so might as well go with that book. anyway, i think this is enough of an update
so the song i decided to quote is "Your Song" by Mayday Parade from Tales Told by Dead Friends. i didnt list it as currently because i wanted to show my option 2 book | | |
| truth: im afraid of my own future.
truth: my own future makes me want to kill myself.
truth: i wish i could live my life with just a microphone and an amazing band.
truth: i want to be as far away from here as possible.
truth: even you cant help me.
the future terrifies me. everyone talks about my future like its something to be afraid of, especially college.i mean, i know college isnt all fun and games like some people make it out to be, but still. i dont want to hear about how much work ill be doing or how girls in college commit suicide during college cuz they cant handle it. how do you think that makes me feel? what makes me different from those girls that are killing themselves in college? everyone talks about college, and makes it sound like hell and sound like its somewhere i dont want to go. whats really ironic about this is my friend has a book of questions, and one of the questions that she read out of it was "have you ever considered suicide?" who knew id be so afraid of my future to consider it?
