Nope. all we got was a lot of antigun, anti-video game hysteria.

idiots.

We got zero tolerance policies. A hit in offense or defense could get you kicked out of school.

Kids still threw rocks at me because I had weird brothers though...


On more recent news I may be getting a 4.0 this semester. I think that's damn good considering everything I've gone through in just a few months, especially when this sort of thing usually causes students to drop the semester, which I was told to do many times.

I am tired of all my sides of the family being dysfunctional. I'm emotionally drained. I'm done with this shit. It's nearly 2am in the fucking morning and I am still too upset to sleep.

Someone did something very stupid today. It put lives in danger and was a completely unnecessary risk. The individual responsible is extremely lucky that nothing happened and things are so much calmer over here.

Today I am leaving for Denver, fly to Europe tomorrow. We are going to Koln, Berlin, Paris, Barcelona, Valencia, Milan, Innsbruck, Munich, and Rothenburg (o.d.T.)

Beth I have your address and will attempt to send you at least one postcard!

I have this international sim card that came with an online travel journal that is supposed to update where I am by where I use my phone. I can also apparently text message it (like twitter? I guess?)

Anyway I'm not sure how that is going to work but if any of you want to follow me around europe, the address is http://www.telestial.ekit.com/ekit/tj/TJM/Tellster

It may ask you to log in using my phone number and name. Phone number 447924479172 (which you can call me at if you want to... make an international phone call? I don't know. it's free for me to receive calls but I don't know why you'd want to call me) and the "name" is Tell.

If anyone else wants postcards PM me your address, I'll be able to occasionally get on teh intarwebs. I make no guarantees about actually sending you a postcard though, I'm pretty bad about it.

See you dudes in three weeks!

I broke down and joined LinkedIN and Facebook. Yeah, yeah.

Good Mother's day. My mom-in-law took me out shopping the week before for clothing and shoes while she was in town. My Mom got me roses. Ryan got me lovely pendents necklaces, cake, and a general day off. Tristan won however, he cut his first tooth today. :D

Job hunting is miserable. It takes like every part of me to not be bummed out all the time. I've worked so hard to get jobs that will help me get employment post college and look at me now. because of this stupid economic situation, i'm without work, without money, and in two months, i'll be without an apartment because my lease will end. there are no jobs in South Carolina and i cannot by any means move back home to my stupid tiny house with mom and dad in shitty Orangeburg. I'll literally go mad. MAD I TELL YOU.

So, like....life sucks and I'm very sad right now :( The job in ATL with the Democratic Party consists of knocking door to door and asking for money and it mostly involves people saying excuses or slamming the door in your face. I knocked at maybe 15 doors and only got $10. :/ We work full time, from 2pm to 9pm, and make less than 15k....what the hell? This isn't what I went to college for. I'm so depressed from the idea of being broke right now that I can't think or eat or draw or anything. I can't enjoy life because it hasn't really started, and won't start until i get a job.

What's worse is that all my friends back home that have graduated as well don't even care about finding work. They just want to find boyfriends and get drunk and shit because school is finally over. What about responsibilities? What about bills? I just don't get them at all.

Lots of people like to "take a year off" after school to play around before jumping into real life.

We thought my older brother was doing that - bartending and going on trips overseas and stuff... but I think this is pretty much what he wants to do with his life for at least the next few years. Bitch is going to england (again)/italy/spain and maybe egypt Image
pimp so jealous

My Dad encourages it, he got all excited when I said Tav and I might take a trip across the pond next year if we can afford it.
He's all "GO NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LAAAAAAAAAATE"

I wub my dad.
