God, i love Stand By Me. watched The Jacket last night. awesome movie. all ya'll should watch it. may i just say, that people are inconsiderate. especially people on my mom's side of the family. but that's ok. we still love them. but they need to learn some manners. i'm goin to my aunt's house tonight for my grandma's 75th birthday party. fun times. i hope i live to be 75. and i hope i'm as cool as my grandma when i'm 75. also, i realized the other day how much in my life i take for granted. like, my grandparents. or my stuff. or the fact that i'm healthy and were doing all right financially. because for so many people, that's not the case. it's funny how much i complain about petty things, when truly, i have nothing to complain about. i really want school to start. miracle of miracles, i finished my Algebra with no help. wow. i think maybe i'm actually getting smarter. who'da thunk it? ha. but i still have to finish my book reports and Silas Marner. oy vey. i'm excited about Frosh orientation. i hope that this incoming freshman class is cooler than we were. but i doubt it. ha. nayways. yeah. life's good. church tomorrow, which is always a good thing. but lately i kinda wonder. i wish i could try out a new church. but that's not happnin anytime soon. but i guess i'm content. speaking of contentment, wow. i'm beginning to realize a pattern within all of the books that i have to read for summer. all of them deal with discontented people. almost everyone in these stories is angry about or unhappy with their lives. and anyone who actually seems content is portrayed as bourgeois or stupid. as if the only way to be truly intelligent and enlightened is to be restless and unhappy. how sad. that seems to be the consensus view in today's world. and i just don't agree. so many people around me seem to think that if something was part of their youth, or was taught to them by their parents, that it is automatically wrong and passe. like as soon as you leave your home, you should discard all of your former beliefs. what a crock. people don't seem to understand that a true indicator of an enlightened person is contentment and peace. ---Cari
