Ummer I'll continue the listing of things about myself tomorrow since I don't have my list saved on my grandmother's computer or on a flash drive... Though normally I would have all my stuff on a flash drive, I failed to do that since I lost mine T.T Oh well I'll find it eventually. Uhmm.... I'm working summer school like I normally do with my grandmother who works at a school for special needs students. To those cruel and twisted people who sometimes use this term, yes it is a school for 'retards'. There, happy I said it >.> I know I slip up using the term but I try not to if I can help it. Like the term people use for the word, 'gay'. That's just mean :[ I happen to have some very nice gay friends and it seems to me that whenever someone says that, it shouldn't have anything to do with them just because something proves to be 'stupid' or 'abnormal'. Heh after that small little ramble of things that go on in my head let me continue to type about my summer volenteer work. At my grandmother's school I help out teachers with the kids. The teacher I am with this year is probably barely 20 and a total blonde (well she did dye her hair that way but then again it MIGHT be natural rolleyes ) with the work she has to do with the five problem kids. I say problem kids because the ones she has in the class are biters, scratchers and screamers. Screamers expecially x.x But anyway some of the kids listen to me better than her or the other paraprofessional that is there also. So I may actually think about a career in the education of handicap children. And if you are trying to ask yourself why I am working at this school, it is because of the High School that I am going to. The High School would like to see 75 hours of community service and what I am doing for the summer would be part of those hours I need. Besides as of last week I got about 72 hours alone thanks to an FFA Convention in Orlando that I helped out with. Uhg that stuff too was a mess with one of the kids that didn't want to listen to me AT ALL when we were at the pool.

*Note to self, have cell phone closer to self so I can call parents of disobident children*
At any rate my summer so far has been decient. Though on some levels from my small group of friends I had in eighth grade, about seven I will miss. A few others... not so much. Also toward those community service hours I've got an aunt that is getting foot sergury and I've got to help her at her house during this month also x.x Heh busy busy month xd But it will get better in July hopefully n.n
