so you know those annoying pop up ads? well there was one at the bottom of my screen all minimized and stuff and it says ::FREE NINJA SC.... and i was like, COOL!!! so i clicked on it but it's just this lame ass camera they call a ninja camera mount. and it's not a free ninja, or a free ninja south carolina, or a free ninja scone, or a free ninja scooter. shoot.

today there was this salad at the salad bar that was like, ham chunks and melon. what gives, chef steve??
woa boy. i'm taking my wpa pictures to get developed tonight. I don't know...something makes me want my parents not to see them.

so i was deleting all my AOL mail... i had like 71 "messeges" and they were all spam basically... so i looked through them really fast for ones to save and there was one from MIT...and I was like, oh ok, I'll save this one. but then I remembered I don't want to go to MIT.

more dorky history reflection...
as quoted in stargazing....the director of "Shanghai Knights" said "I'd like to have Owen pop a champagne bottle and kill Duke Ferdinand and start World War I, and then have the guys resolve it. I'd like to see them in the trenches (griping) at each other. That would be so funny."
yeah. haha. based on what we're reading and stuff...god that's beyond the "big guys" and everything. it almost makes you sick. i sound lame.

you know...reading history i think there's a lot of relevancy now to during Teddy Roosevelt's term. because he was totally "america is the best" and america was the policeman of the world and we were just everywhere where we shouldn't have been....and there were people at home who were against it but their voices weren't heard. well, i guess they were heard but we went ahead with going to china and japan and hawaii and panama and such.

this dumb self evaluation....is hard. but thanks for you guys answering what my most conspicuous shortcomings are:

i'm open to more. and if you know if my grades and standardized test scores are an accurate reflection of my academic ability and potential, i'd like to hear that too

i just thought i should share this. my mom always sends me emails warning me about viruses and such...they're so annoying and i never heed them. recently she sent me one that went somethign like this:

Fw: READ IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone is sending out a very cute screensaver of the Budweiser
Frogs. If you download it, you will lose everything! Your hard drive
will crash and someone from the Internet will get your screen name and
password! DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
Please share it with everyone that might access the Internet. Once
again, Pass This Along To EVERYONE in your address book so that this may
be stopped. AOL has said that this is a very dangerous virus and that
there is NO remedy for it at this time.

and i sent her an email back that said:

you know, the best way for a virus to be passed along would be through an
email like this that says 'send this to EVERYONE you know!' don't you think?
and everyone would open it. except me cause i'm smarter than they are.

so she sent me this:

Kjerstin -
You ARE smart! Good job!
I love you,
Mom


and that cracked me up.

bwahaha. i get to say
"Come the revolution...." in my term paper.

.: posted by Kj 11:16 p.m.

"All three men lived long enough to see the organizations to which they had given so much of their lives battered or broken entirely. Gompers had come to trust the government that Debs hoped to take over and Haywood planned to smash. The government turned on them all—not all at once or with equal fury, but in the end without much differentiation. Corporations dominated the political landscape. Just as the military protected their interests abroad, lawmakers, courts, and the police protected them at home. As American historian W. E. B. Du Bois observed in 1924, 'Modern imperialism and modern industrialism are one and the same system.' "

"If I won the lottery....I would go out and buy..a yellow hat..really big shoes....red pants....a chainsaw (I've wanted one for so long)..................and a pack of Zima. [pause.] just kidding. i wouldn't get the Zima."

"....and an infinity port."

dude. those books include the actual proceedings of the founding IWW convention.
excerpt:

The Chairman: It occurs to me that that motion is out of order at this time.
Del. Ferber: I don't think so.
The Chairman: Unless the adoption of the constitution is effected, the election of officers is premature.
Del. Ferber: Yes.
The Chairman: There seems to be no objection on the part of the convention. We may take up something else.


bwahahah. crappy passage.

i went to brookside a billion times today for different reasons that were kind of all the same.

you know when it's good to have a librarian for a mom? when she brings you 15 books back for your term paper.

I am seriously beginning to doubt that green and earl grey tea have caffeine.

i think i would be happy spending all my time at home cutting out pictures from magazines and gluing them to cardboard. glue and cardboard.

I like going in to talk to Dr. Judd about my work because I go in and we yell at eachother but really she yells and I kind of whimper back defensively but it's very helpful.

I vote....frisbee over the weekend, if the weather doesn't BITE ASS.

I like how I come home from school and sleep for a couple hours then have to stay up all night because I already slept so then I'm tired the next day and need to sleep after school again.

god. another saturday that has felt like three fucking days. ahhh but it is worth it to blare your music and speed down Ward Parkway at 6:30 am. another bus ride to the country where we pass fields of storage lockers and truck stops the size of the Vatican.
this time it was Districts, and hooray! hooray! ryan and munro anddd andrew young are going to sectionals. and for the record, the only reason andrew y is going is because he had a bye (no person in his bracket of five people) and his only other qualifying match, he won on a medical default.
god it lasted so long. listen to me whine. no, i'm justified because it was almost 12 hours with andrew y. gAWDDD. he's so fuuucking dumb.
it's so funny when he talks to coach, beccause coach just tries to be polite. is it weird to hear me say "coach" all the time? i don't know what else to call him. sheesh. i can't even remember somethign funny that happened because i'm so tired. poo.

when is this fucking story going to end???? ahhhhhhhh. at least Gordon doesn't know anything about wrestling. then again, she probably does, knowing my luck. I mean, she's catholic (first short story) and her son did my term paper topic (goddammit) so she probably knows everything about wrestling too and will note my story to be inconcievable. SCREW YOU.

history repeats itself. as do term paper topics. it's so eery how the IWW is like Lenin. ok, well they're not that alike. but both followed Marxist doctrine and "never lost the vision of the ultimate revolution." and i know you're like CARE but it's just funny because it's like i'm doing the same topic twice. that's ok.

IWW: "Oh-my-GAWD! howww am I supposed to wage class war without the unreserved right to strike? huh? and you know that there is never going to be a revolution and consequent cooperative commonwealth without that class war!"

Wrestling quotes
"Dan Wells! stop eating your hands! you're not even eating your hands now. you're mauling them. why do you maul your hands, Dan Wells? are you a nervous guy?"
"No, i just have an over-active part of my brain." (points to back of head.)

More from D. Wells:
"I have dates to two WPAs......just kidding."
On the Columbia (sp?)
"I don't know why it's such a big deal. We're taking it as way too big a deal. I mean, what are we going to do when the sun dies and we don't have a planet to go to?"
"I did not skip practice on Friday to smoke up!"

coach: I've been on a plane three times in my life. once in the army and twice for wrestling tournaments.
dumb, over-developed 6th grader: I have my own plane.
coach: ha. you kids have your own planes. the kids at my school had their own planes.
brady: are you kidding?
coach: no. yes! kids at my school didn't have clothes! kids at my school didn't have breakfast cereal!

Coach: telegrams? That's my business. or I tried it. You know all the "-grams" that people can get...well I thought I'd start my own grams. So I took out an ad in the yellow pages for the "World's Fastest Man-o-gram" and you know, people could call and I would just go over and do whatever. Well, I started getting calls from people who would say stuff like, "that is so sick!" "what's wrong with you? that's so sick!" and I couldn't figure it out so I looked at the ad, and those bastards had made a typo and it said, "World's Fastest Mammogram."

coach and I are going to start a metal band called "Hot Lava."
