The food looked like raw crushed dreams

I walk with punks.

This has only started happening since I made friends with the "punk next door" as my parents have labeled him. For some reason, my sister has taken a liking to him and they apparently planned to meet this afternoon and go for a walk. This is basically how it went down.

Corrina: hey, let's walk down that way. (we'd already planned on taking a walk, but we don't usually go down his road.)

We then proceeded to pass his house, where he was literally just riding his bike around his driveway. I said hey and we high-fived and stuff.

Cassidy (in a completely joking manor): what, are you going to follow us now?

He then proceeded to bolt inside, and we just kept walking. I wasn't expecting him to then return, bike-less, and fall into step with us.

Oh Justin.

So we took a nice walk around the cul-de-sac where we live, and we chattered away while poor Corrina had to overhear our weirdness.

It was cool. He's a good kid, really.

In other news, I took MCAS today. It wasn't fun at all. We finished two hours before they dismiss us, so me and Seth played a rousing game of Heads Up Seven Up, which was only like us and three other people. It made the game much easier but more boring at the same time. So we got to go for outside recess, which consisted of me and my friend Ali just lurking in a corner of the soccer field, talking about boys and Foster Care and drama and business and video games and soccer balls. Then Collin yelled at us for not getting the soccer ball he kicked in our general direction.

Silly goose.

In other news, my art teacher hasn't stepped me and Nate yet. I think she's pretty close, because there's only so much nonsense one art teacher can take.

He had a habit of ruining everything he loved.

Today:

Two of my friends made fun of me for how I eat my lollipops. Apparently I eat them really oddly and they just mocked me from across the room.

We did a harlem shake video in math class.

This morning me, Gabe, and Corrina went skating around on his driveway waiting for the bus and we looked like absolute fools when the bus came up.

Cam got a haircut and he looks like a little kid and i made him aware. And also he thinks we're apparently beyond the talking stage of our friendship and just gave me cool, collected looks all day and i was very curious. I'll investigate if we have school tomorrow.

Nicko and Joe and Zach had a discussion in line to go to lunch. Nicko said I was his hero, Joe said I was amazing and that his moobs hurt, and Zach announced to the whole eighth grade that i play the ukulele. It was interesting.

Seth rolled around in his sleeping bag for most of science class until Ms. Bolio, the teaching aid, came in and thought he was dying and removed it.

We got new seats in science and now I sit with Lilly, Haleigh, and Autumn and Aly and Seth sit on the other side of the room and I'm sad about that.

Mrs. Cumtois explained the Mass Pike to us in English.

My evil art teacher, Ms. Bates, threatened to step me and Nate about three times in one class.

"Nathaniel! What step are you in UAs?"
"Um...like a one?" (btw steps are like strikes and if you get one, it's a warning, two is a detention, three is call to your parents, four is in-school suspension, five is suspension. you have different classifications for Unified Arts and CORE classes.)
"And Cassidy?"
"Zero."
"Well, you're both very close to getting stepped."
"Ms. Bates! We weren't even doing anything!"
"THAT'S ENOUGH GOMEZ, stop distracting that poor girl."
"Yeah Nate. Stop distracting me."

On the bus home today, Justin and Bryan discussed Lil Wayne's seizure with Corrina and it was horrifying. They're so dumb but Corrina thinks they're hilarious. They're not hilarious in class.

I hope you enjoyed reading about my day bye :3

merch and dentistry

i actually just go onto amazon and add a bunch of band merch to my wishlist and i think my dad questions that but whatever. i don't care about how he doesn't have my taste in music. and in the show i'm watching, one of the people is named coats. like legit that's just his name.

imagine like "oh hi, i'd like to apply for a job, my name is coats jones. wait what please stop laughing at me."

oh so today i went to the dentist to get a filling. i couldn't feel about half my mouth for an hour. and now my mouth tastes like disgusting dental filling. i've been spending my day off from school mostly writing and hanging out with danielle because gabe abandoned me to go hang out with the neighbors :O

no, gabe, don't leave me again. i can't play xbox live without you because only you know your password.

the teachers had a professional day today so nobody had to go to school. that was really nice because i don't particularly like going to school on friday because idk i just don't like going to school on most days xD just kidding my new school is actually going quite well.

my stomach hurts and i don't know why. maybe some good music will cure me. time to go blast an ipod!

kristine's watching tv with me and she's like "oh that's spiderman's head."

i'm like "that's a basketball."

7 things that bother me about humans

Okay so there's nothing about this post that says that I'm perfect or that I've never done any of these, but some things just need to be said. I must complain about my own kind. I'm sorry humans, but you're about to be completely and utterly betrayed.

1: Bragging, especially untruthful bragging
Yeah, I hate it when people do that. Especially if they're not even good at it. Like when girls will be like "ohmygosh, I'm such a good dancer :3" and like they look like they're having a seizure or they're off-meds. Or just bragging in general. That's one of my least favorite traits in humans, so I really try to never do that.

2: Intoxication
One thing I have never been and never hope to be. I don't actually see the point in losing consciousness but it doesn't sound like something I ever even want to try. Drugs, drinking, any of that stuff, I can see why it's a good pain-reliever, but definitely not the best. I can think of way more fun ways to kill time than snorting cocaine or whatever.

3: Perfectionists
I have also never been one of these. People who try too hard to be perfect just make me kind of upset. Like when somebody tries the same thing a thousand times, when they did it really well the first thousand times. It just irritates me when I have someone like this as a project partner or when I'm in line after them for something. I have a friend who will literally take seventeen years to print her name properly.

4: Gentlemen who wear too-baggy pants
This one speaks for itself.

5: New-boyfriend-every-dayers
Something I don't really like about girls in my school (and every school I've been in) is that there's always those couple who legitimately have a new boyfriend all the time. I'll talk to them one day about Craig, and then when I talk to her at the same time the next day, she'll have dated Mike, Jake, and Anthony. She's now dating Brian and perfectly happy. For another hour.
This also goes for guys who dump girls like they're rotten coleslaw into the trash.

6: People who say they love a band and only know one song
This really irritates people who love music (such as myself.) If you can't even be bothered to check out any other music by them, they're not your favorite band on the face of the earth. Calm down.

7: "It's cool to be lazy/in trouble/failing school" guys
I DESPISE IT when people act like they're badboys or idiots or just don't try. This isn't impressing me, gentlemen. Intelligence is really more interesting, self-control is way hotter, and I don't even want to be friends with slackers. Work hard for your money, so you'd better treat her right.
What?

There you have it. I have to go in a rush, but I would have added more. Maybe another time? Later <3 p="">

me and bruno mars are married

i'm not too big into the pop stuff, but i do love me a lot of bruno mars. like ugh i love you.

yeah so as we should know i started at my new school last week. i'm making friends, and I've already gotten an incredibly high grade in math. i feel so smart. i guess it's because noah and ben aren't here to make me feel dumb, haha. no, but i miss them all terribly. <3 babies.="" p="">
but yeah there's this guy and we won't go there right now will we?

i like my classes enough, and the teachers there are so much nicer than my old school. they actually don't all hate me (although my english teacher thinks i'm a bit of a chatterbug, but i can definitely live with that feeling. ew hold on lady gaga just came on my ipod and bleaugh i trusted you pandora i trusted you.

okay fixed it now i've got breaking benjamin :)

luke misses me a lot. i talked to him the other day. everybody says that he's been super quiet and he never gets in trouble without me there. and apparently ben has turned mute and doesn't talk to anyone anymore. i thought i raised you boys well. have you both forgotten all the rules of being a public nuisance that i taught you? my goodness, behaving properly, being quiet, paying attention in class, what's become of you, boys?

my goodness. you spend two years corrupting these kids, and this is how they turn out? like respectful young adults? i'm quite disappointed.

all joking aside, i miss them all and i hope to see them all very, very soon. and you as well, for i have some english homework i must plow through. see you all later :)
