My diary: an interactive project. Sort of.

Hello.

I realize that it has been nearly two weeks since I updated...

I've just been lazy. No excuse. But now that school is back, I'm not allowed to be lazy, so I convinced my self to do this while I have the time. Well, I really don't have the time since I have so much homework, but whatever.

I feel different. It feels weird to write this, almost like I'm a different person invading someone's work. But it's still me. I guess I just got out of practice.

How are you? I am not so good. I have felt sick all day, and on top of that I had gym today, and running while you feel like you are going to puke is not fun. Plus there was a fire drill and we had to go outside in the cold in our gym shorts. And then there is the homework. Our Spanish teacher wants us to translate a story. In Spanish one. What is this teaching us? Dictionary skills? How useful. And she isn't even there to teach us about imperfect verbs, and we have to do a worksheet on it. She's been gone all week.

I'm just tired. After getting 14 hrs of sleep each day over break it's hard going back to 7.

It seems like I should have more to say after two weeks, but half of that was spent practically in a coma. The holidays were good though. I just wish they didn't have to end so fast.

It is so tempting to take s nap right now, but I already have trouble sleeping, I don't want to add to it.

I feel like a stranger to my own story. It's kinda a sad feeling. I just feel really empty. But that's nothing new.

I wanna be happy, so I'm gonna tell you some things I noticed today that I really hate. Just to make myself feel better.

Gym. This is probably one of the most common objects of hatred in teenagers, especially nerdy ones. I. Hate. Gym.

People that block doors. They just stand there, and no one can get through. I have places to go and things to do. Kindly stand somewhere else.

Group work. It always comes down to me doing all of the actual work. A sub-hatred to this: being forced to work with someone outside of your normal group in a certain class. In my class, there is a clear divide between the "cool kids" and the others. I don't really belong to either, but I have never liked the cool kids, and some of the others talk to me. So why, when the teacher separated us into 2 groups, did she make me the only other in the group of cool kids?

What else? Oh yeah, projects. I hate projects. They are usually pointless and I'm not creative enough to enjoy them.

And homework. All of it. Teachers need to realize that our lives are as, if not more, difficult as theirs, and we deserve a break. We work 7 hours at school then 4 more hours at home and we don't have time for anything else.

I think I'm done. I'm too tired to keep writing. I'll try to do better.

Thank you and goodbye.
