The Mortality of My Morals

I completed my first assignment! Horrah! It took quite some time to accomplish, though. I decided to start out in baby steps, choosing assignment #63 and hanging it on my bedroom door. Glue didn't work so I had to use tape... a lot of tape. I also made a small bag of confetti with the bits of leftover paper that I'm not really sure when I'll use, but it'll be some time I actually feel relevant. I think feeling relevant is important and worth celebrating. Joel told me I was relevant earlier this week, so that's how I decided what I'd make my banner about.
It may not be the prettiest, but it serves a purpose.

I've been getting more and more sick the past couple days being around my sick mother. I guess she's getting me back for when I had gotten her sick back in January. The nasal drippage has caused me to be a lot less hungry than I normally am. I always feel like I loose too much weight when I'm sick. The sneezing is the worst part, though. I'm out of tissues and I probably need to wash my bed sheets.

I saw Tara today! It was really nice seeing her again. It's always nice to see her, especially now that she lives over two (... or is it three?) hours away.

I didn't really get much accomplished school-wise today and they won't let me buy a parking spot because I've gotten 10 tardys in the what? 200 or so days that I attend school a year. So I'll be playing catch-up tomorrow with my studies and starting to ask my mom for money to park in three-dollar parking everyday. Three-dollar parking isn't as expensive as everyone thinks it is; it's a lot cheaper than the $50 my mom was paying people to take me to school every week. On the bright side, I did manage to get to my first class on time! That's a real accomplishment for me.

While I was waiting on Tara, I began to clean my room rather thoroughly, more so than I ever have. I took a video of the mess before I started, but am having difficulties uploading it. I'll have someone else upload it for me as well as one of the result of my hard work once I finish... tomorrow?

I also started writing a song today. There's something about putting feelings into metaphores that makes things seem like they have a lot more hope. I hope to finish it tomorrow and maybe playing a little accoustic guitar with it. So much better than writing poetry or sappy diary entries.

Time for bed, but first, here are a couple pictures from the Florida Aquarium in Tampa:

Hey look! I'm a hermit!

Night.
