Sentences, fragments of sentences, quotes, seconds of movie scenes, and little day dreams keep floating across my mind, especially at night.

I've been somewhat of an insomniac lately, only getting 4-6 hours of sleep every night for the past 4 days or so. When I don't get enough sleep, I get sick, so here I am, sick. Not really sick like puking sick but a bit sick like headache and fever sick and every noise and touch flinch sick and bright lights hurt sick.... etc. sick. This has led me to be irritated at everything, which is never completely justified unless you have a terrible disease. Of course, it all comes back to the drifting thoughts that capture my mind and refuse to let it sleep.

Life would be so much easier if I could have either school, or work, not both. Schedules are so crammed again that I get subconsciously stressed just knowing that I have hardly any time to myself. This "me" time has become that period between 10:30 PM and 1:00 AM - another reason why I'm not getting enough sleep. The conclusion to this is, firstly, an apology to anyone I have snapped at recently, and a plea for mercy based on the fact that it's not (entirely) my fault. Secondly, I have decided to make "having energy" my project for the rest of this month. I imagine Rhea and Daek will be jumping for joy at this statement.

Apparently hot dogs are being sold for a dollar right now...

This salad I'm having is absolutely amazing. Also, the sweet potato dish, which is called exactly that, is what some would call "orgasmic." These are portions of the leftovers our family took home from turkey dinner last night. There is absolutely no argument: my uncle makes the best coffee in the world. If I do achieve my spa/coffee shop dream, both mom and uncle want to help me <3

If I achieve it? OF COURSE I'll achieve it. (That was for you Daek).

Nikki has been rolling her eyes at me because I'm at an average grade 0.7% below the highest bracket for the U of A scholarship I'm applying for and I was actually mad for a little while there. I'm applying for scholarships for U of A and down south in Vernon and whichever ones I get will determine where I go to school. If this method fails I have no idea how I will decide where to go... Abdissa thinks my transcript is a disgrace or something to that effect. Apparently they don't have smiley faces in Ethiopia because he's had a rough time learning where to place the three basic lines. Today in math he reached over and drew this on my page... So I'm laughing until my gut hurts and he's going "Whaat? Eet's a face?"
"Noooo! -guffaw- like this!"
Then he told me that since he is going to be a pro soccer player and making lots of money (he came up with some big number in the millions per year) that he would make use of said massage parlor I will be hosting. He said "I can pay big money for the massage (MASS-ahge) for when I hurt my shoulder doing knock-downs," and then gave me a demonstration of this shoulder being thrown forward to hit the ball. "I'm seeerious!" He always emphasizes the first syllable and the rest goes so fast it's barely there.

Crazy Americans spell everything weird >.<; "parlor?" A word document just opened of it's own accord... how "fishy". What did fish ever do to deserve such a bad name anyway? Society just loves stereotypes. Just because a hungry piranha bit some guy's ... bum... doesn't mean that all trout and herring (not to mention "jack" fish) should be blamed for every odd occurrence that takes place on Earth. WHAT DO YOU MEAN "DOESN'T" ISN'T A WORD? >>;

Nikki, thy lover just came in the library and you are NOT here! Ditcher. The girl beside me is blasting Beyonce. I'm tired of her whiny voice now.
