Hey there....
Been a few weeks since I've been on this. Quite a few things have happenes since then. First and foremost, have a job now. Substitute teaching, pretty much get called everyday. Then there's the part-time at the mental hospital and the part-time photography thing, so yeah, I've been busy.
House is still trashed, been trying hard to fix it up, but no time and no money somewhat make that difficult. I really wish I had a wooden fence instead of the chainlink so people couldn't see how high my grass is, but then again, if the neighbor behind me wouldn't have cut down my bushes, she wouldn't be able to see the mess back there anyway, so I guess it was pretty much her choice to have a view of that.
It's weird going back to my old middle school to sub. It's even weirder going to my highschool. The place still smells the same and for some reason I feel so much taller, even though I haven't grown a bit since the 8th grade. Plus I always used to wear heels to school and now I've been pretty much in sneaker mode, so I really don't understand this whole "too tall" thing I have going on lately.
My car got crashed into. By a guy wth no insurance who assumed I was going to run the red light that had been red for some time, so he comes speeding up and rams into me at 45mph. Totaled his car completely and surprisingly, aside from a bent back panel that wouldn't let my trunk close shut, my car was pretty much intact. It'll cost $2000 to fix it perfectly, but for $100 I found some guy in little Havana who could get the trunk to close. It's not perfect, but hey, least the trunk closes now.
My desk top PC went caput. Motherboard fried or some crap like that. I guess when you are trying to get a photography business of the ground and you have a few gigs of unbacked up photos on a crashed PC, this could pose some problems. Best Buy said they would retrieve my data for $200. Mike says his roommate will do it for free. Guess I'm driving to Orlando this weekend then. More time away from house fixing, and I kinda wanted to visit my grandparents in Miami since I'm off Monday, but whatever. Now I guess I have an excuse to buyt a Mac.
I love my little laptop though. Yeah it's too slow to run photoshop and the screen isn't big enough to properly edit anything, but for most tasks, it gets the job done quickly, better than my desk top that had Vista on it. And considering this was the ceapest notebook Best Buy was selling 4 years ago, and considering that's how old it is and how many times I've dropped it and how many parts of the power cord have electrical tape wrapped around them, I think I lucked out on my little gateway.
Someday I will purchase my own internet. That way I will no longer have to resort to picking up my neighbor's weak wireless signal which comes and goes as it pleases.
Maybe once I get a new desktop I'll put some of the recent pictures I took up on here. Some came out pretty nice.
That dude I was inlove with has a new girl I guess. She's drunk 24/7. Doesn't do much with her life cept party, and partying and drinking seem to be her main topics of conversation. I don't have anything against the girl or anything, she seems nice enough and hasn't done anything to me, but I guess I don't much get how the laws of attraction work. Then again, who does. (Plus he seems to be turning into quite the alcoholic himself, so I guess it's all for the best.)
Speaking of which, I did meet a boy. At a friend's birthday party. I'm just not to sure how old this boy is. All I know is he's over 18. But if it turns out he's 19, that's kind of a big gap to 25. I mean I guess it's no big deal, but to some people it is. It isn't anything to stress about yet anyway, we've only hung out a few times, but I think I might like him, and me liking a guy I just met who asked me to come hangout after knowing me a few hours is a rare thing. I get asked out a lot (as do most girls around here I guess) and usually I don't care for a single one of them. So leave it to me to decide to like the one who might be bordering on the too young realm. But he does seem like a nice enough guy who's halfway normal and down to earth, kinda short, but whatever.
Alright, my stomach's doing weird things and I think I'll go to bed. Good night everyone. (And I hope that one dude calls me tomorrow).

Where you are (I forget if you said the state, so I won't say it for you) is weird like that; girls do get asked out quite a bit there. How do you feel about that overall?
pfff, age. whatever. you're in-like. work it.
@GreekPhysique - You know, I don't know, I've never given it much thought past the usual "here comes another one to ask me for my number, probably wont go no where". I guess it's just a given that any time you go out anywhere and there are guys you don't know (or even those you somewhat know) that at least one will ask you out, Then you have start decoding whether this guy actually wants to get to know you, or if he is just looking for quicky. And for the most part, I'm not interested in any of them cause I tend to fall for people I've known for a few weeks or months. But oh well, getting attention still makes most people feel special in some way.
Age. eh. It's overrated. If you like the dude and vice versa, that's all that matters. Give it a shot.
I kinda feel what you're saying about going back to your old HS and feeling taller. I visited my old history teacher months ago and felt the same way walking up and down the narrow staircases. It was weird.
You're stealing internet? Awesome!
congrats on the job.
a few of my friends went back to my HS to teach. some to sub and some full time. they worked with teachers they had themselves. and even *those* teachers worked with teacher *they* had. it's like 3 generations.
18?! holy... i feel old.
So long as he isn't fake ID 18 .
I don't see as anyone could have a problem.

Sucks to hear about the guy you like...the laws of attraction have always baffled me, and that applies both to people I'm wondering, "What the hell do they see in her/him??" and me, because my choices in guys are notoriously strange. lol Hopefully the guy you met at the party doesn't have a dramatic age difference! I know it shouldn't matter, but that kind of thing still daunts me a bit. Good luck!
happy happy halloween :D
