Traffic Violations

...are oh so fun! Only not really! I'm so steamed about this right now. Uuuuuugh. I got a ticket in the mail today for not fully stopping at a red light before turning right. Notice how long the light had yellow and red for this whole process:

Really? 0.453 seconds? Whatever. Fucking city can have my $75. It's not worth it.

p.s. Sorry about the crinkliness. I got pissed and balled it up and threw it away at first.

I am disappointed with myself

So yesterday I got my SAT scores back, and I really didn't do as well as I'd hoped to. This disappoints me a lot. Like, I have these huge dreams and aspirations and I'm really ambitious, but now I feel like I don't have enough to back that with. Before I took it, I always just kinda assumed that I would do well enough, but apparently not. It just sorta sucks to see myself to worse than I want to, and it's not like that score is something I can really work at all that much. I don't even really have grades that good, either, and I was banking on my testing scores to make up for that at least a little. Uuuuuggghhh. I don't even know. Hopefully I can do better next time.

New Blog

I just made a new blog for all the stuff out of my doodling notebooks from middle school.

You should look at it.

It's here.

Sooo yeah.

Pitiful

So I know this is terrible, and a feeble attempt at wit and imagery and deepness and whatnot, but it is my first (and possibly least embarrassing) poem.

I need work, I know, but I wanted to post something. So here it is. Enjoy.

-------------------------

I sit

and wait.

And I ponder

what is to come.

and what has preceded.

Ah! Finally!

That electric-blue beacon

of knowledge or news!

How eager I am to open and read.

The satisfaction is great.

This is what our lives

have come to

in this age.

Pitiful.

Wooooow

Why do I always do this? I post some crap, then go completely inactive for months, then post some more crap? I should really be more consistent with this thing....
I can't really think of much to say except that life has been pretty radical recently. School starts friggin soon, which I'm hella pumped for and also hella scared for. Also, I thought I'd share this about a movie I watched last night. Originally, it was a text message to none other than Ann Lipscombe, but I liked it so here:
You really should see Charlie Bartlett. It was a fantastic movie which I liken to Juno, in that it's about a teenager's fucked up life and how they deal with it. I highly recommend it to any kid who's either going through high school or who has experienced it at one point in their life. Seriously, check it out.
