4Q35

I never had a thing for celebrities.  If you were a movie star, I always admired the screenwriters and directors.  If you were a musician, I liked your music more than I liked you.  If you were a Kardashian, well, that should be self explanatory.   Celebrities were always so foreign from what I wanted to do with my life.

Mickey Mantle makes $100k a year, how much does your dad make driving that bus?  Nobody cares.  Think Mickey Mantle pays your bills?

4Q34

Am I happy where I live?  That's a tough answer.  I could go and explain the whole thing, but Mr. Drago never reads these anyways, so what's the point.  If you read this one Mr. Drago, ask me where I'm going to college.  That should give you a pretty clear answer as to how happy I am here in Chapel Hill.

4Q33

I broke up with a girl because I told her I was living too far away, then I had a 'thing' with one of her friends afterwards.  The girl and I no longer speak to each other.  I guess I lied, but I try not to dwell on it.

4Q32

I have never been in a situation where me being there was detrimental at all.  I've helped people before and that was that.  Nothing horrible came of it.  I guess I can consider myself lucky that I have never made things worse than they already are, but  I think I am just good at the things I do.

4Q31

I put an accidental hole in my wall because I dropped a framed picture from the top of a flight of stairs.  My parents were not happy, to say the least.

4Q30

Never been to a concert before.  I've always wanted to go to a mosh and stage dive. One of these.

4Q29

I was in an earthquake once but it was very small, and would not make a good story at all.  The whole ground started shaking and even some pictures fell off the walls.  It was small, but I now realize how harmful and earthquake actually is.

4Q28

I do consider myself responsible because many people have told me so.  Suppose there was an instance where the middle school gave out an award for the person with the most integrity and responsibility, and suppose that I won two years in a row.  Just suppose it.

4Q27

The trip to New York City and Schenectady this spring was one of my favorites.  Mainly because I felt very independent while I was there.  In NYC, I pretty much had free reign as to what I wanted to do.  Then I toured my college in Schenectady, which was great.  Overall, it was an amazing trip and cant wait to go back North for university.

4Q26

Money can buy happiness.  Anyone who disagrees is foolish.  Lets say you but a huge waterpark for you to play in 24/7.  Is that not happiness?  There is no nobility in poverty.  Anyone who believes that money is something that does not constitute happiness has never had enough money to do so.  And they never will, with that attitude.

4Q25

I try to hide myself online at all times.  Everything is private.  It is not even that I like social media at all either, I hate it.  It's terrible what it does to the mind.  If there was an opporunity for me to live somewhere with no access to the internet, I would jump on it.  everything is so impersonal.  Letter writing is gone, newspapers are gone.  I hate it.

4Q24

At least in my case, the most difficult thing about being a teenager is that I have all of these grand and philosophical ideas that nobody seems to take seriously.  Also, when I do not agree with an authority figure, I am forced to submit to them because I am simply younger.  That's terrible.  If there is a teacher that I do not agree with or believe that they are wrong, why should I do things there way?

4Q23

My ideal house is the one that I live in now.  8 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, three car garage, 4 acres of land.  I really have nothing to complain about.  I live a very privileged life, I drive a Lexus, and I really have no complaints.

4Q22

I had a fight with my next door neighbor (my eternal worst enemy) and called him many things that I cannot believe I even knew.  We fought, I broke his nose, I called his dad a few bad things and gave his dad the bird.  Not my proudest moment, but it did feel good.

4Q21

I do not think the school year is too long, it just feels so.  The structure of the school year started around the farming cycles, giving summers off to kids so they could help their parents harvest the crops.  I don't really think it needs to be any shorter.  Maybe just ending it at the end of May instead of going about 2 weeks into June.  Those two weeks feel so long.
