...are ridiculous -_-
I would just like to record this small event so that when I'm reading this in the future, I can be reminded of how stupid Collins is.
Edit 5/23
So, last week on Monday, it is decided that my friend will be the Vice Presidential candidate for the red party. I was really excited, so I was helping her out and such.
Edit 5/27
The Vice Presidential candidate for the blue party is a friend of ours, so she told us that someone had drawn a picture of a penis on the poster on the bathroom door. Her boyfriend, Collins, had told her this.
So, I found the poster and took it down. We saw Collins soon after and VP Red said "Thank You" and I said "Yeah, thanks for telling us what they wrote."
Then he went off.
Started insulting me and spazzing.
And I was really shocked.
Supposedly, he thought accused him of drawing the picture and thought I was thanking him sarcastically. He called me Medusa and said I should get a perm (I have natural twists). And it was really surprising to me because I was genuinely thanking him for letting us know (indirectly though) about what was drawn on the poster. I figured that he was just looking for a reason to get mad at me, 'cause I felt like deep down he doesn't really like me. And to tell you the truth, I don't really like him either. He takes his anger out on other people and gets mad over the smallest things. And he acts like he's the sugar honey. Why do I need lame people like that in my life again? I don't :-p
The next day, his girlfriend comes up to me and asks what happened, 'cause she wasn't present. I gladly tell her and she said that he was cursing about me and a whole bunch.I told her that I don't think he likes me and this was an excuse to spazz on me. But then she said something that surprised me. Later on when she was calming him down, he said that he was upset because he just got into an argument with a good friend. Good friend my ass -_-. He doesn't know how to be one. HE doesn't get what he wants he feels insulted, like, he just finds reasons to spazz! He doesn't even try to understand. I was explaining myself to him and I was making perfect sense (and this is not biased because I have a witness) and it was all just stupid. Really realy stupid. Whatev. I'm definitely writing this two weeks after the event (the red party won by the way, W00T! GO RED! XD) but I just wanted to record this so that I could remember when I read back and show my children so that they can beware of stupid people. God's taking care of me, taking the unnecessary people and people-destroyers out of my life. =)
Smilez!

Amazing Faith
Yeah, so I guess I was totally lazy and did not post up the other college descriptions. Eh, still a little lazy xD. Yesterday, I took my SAT. I am so glad it's over! It was so long, 10 sections, about 4 hours. A 4 hour test! That should be illegal, it sounds so unreasonable and irrational! Ugh whatever, it's done, at least until October. I took it at Truman High School and it was like a 180 reunion and a Spellman get-together at the same time. Too many familiar faces. Freeeaaaky.
So Friday morning, I was being really silly. I was reading IM convos that I used to have with my ex-boyfriend. Irony of everything was really funny. Like, I told him "You have to promise not to stab me in the back because I'm gonna say something cheesy that'll make me vulnerable." He said "I promise." Then I was like "If you were to die, I would cry harder than your mother because she at least has one other child, but I only have one best friend." We weren't dating at this point, but I find it funny that a) he did stab me in the back (more like the heart) and b) we aren't friends anymore xD. It's funny, but at the same time it's sad 'cause it's crazy that after everything, this is where we wound up. Two extremely distant people who at one point were so close. It's unfortunate, but what can you do? Answer: Just move on. God has my back, so I'm good =)
On another note, Thursday was quite a day. I was at Bank Street for the College Writing Workshop. Joel and Lauren found out that Jeremy and I went out and the things they said really put me in a good mood. The first thing Lauren said was "You didn't lose anything." lol, it was really cool. And Joel was astonished, her face was hilarious. She couldn't see why I even bothered. lol. They didn't bash him ridiculously, but they were basically saying that I can do better. They were voicing something I have already concluded: "I can do better, I can do better. HUGH!" (Avril song I Can Do Better XD). Thanks guys. And Luis's poetry is amazing, oh my gosh! Like, he did some improv. and my eyes welled up. It was so real xD. The topic was ex-boyfriends. lol, typing this all out makes it seem like I'm not over Jeremy, but it's just that he's come up randomly in the past few days. In my head and in conversations 0_0. Strange... But anyway, Luis's poems are amazing. I'm gonna kill him if he doesn't do something with his work. Do you here me Luis? You are too good not to do anything!!!
But the biggest thing that made my Thursday was the train ride home. I was on the 2 train, and this guy comes on the train. He apologized for disturbing us and then told his story. He is HIV positive and left the homeless shelter where he was at, for he was beaten and robbed. His family won't speak to him. He's getting his paperwork and stuff together I guess so that he can get housing, but in the meantime he's living on the streets. He said that he uses his gift for reciting original poetry in asking for donations. When he started his poem, it wasn't anything dynamic, not in terms of how he recited it or the words he used. It wasn't like Luis's where you are just awed that he was able to come up with this stuff. Naw, this poem was very simple. What was dynamic about this poem was the subject of it. A little ways into it, he used the the word "He" referring to God. Then I heard "Lord" and "Jesus." He was saying that Jesus is always with him and that that's where he finds strength and comfort. Basically that's what he was saying. I gave him the dollar I was gonna spend on ice cream. I wish I had like 5 to give him. It was amazing! That feeling I felt after he said his poem. I was so touched. Here is a man in such a terrible situation. The man is dying. Dying. But you know what he's doing? He praising God through his poetry. And it was absolutely different from your typical testimony. A typical testimony talks about how God brought someone through something. How they went through a trying time, but God carried them out. Those are awesome, but this one was different. In this case, the guy is still in his trial; he's still in deep trouble. And you know what he's doing? Reciting poetry about God. Man, that touched me so much. So many other people in his situation would turn away from God, reject Him. Blame Him for their situation. But what is this guy doing? Praising His name through poetry! I can't get over that, it's amazing! And though it was simpler, his poem hit me way harder than Luis's. I welled up with Luis's poem; with this guy I sobbed. Awh man did I sob! I sobbed walking home from the train station, truly amazed by this man's story. God is so amazing. I can imagine the peace that man is experiencing right now. Do I want a faith like that! Amazing faith. That should be a song xD. I should have asked for the guy's name again. Damn! I think it was Joseph. So guys, please pray for Joseph. God, that was amazing. Thank You that I got to hear his story.
So yeah, I'll end my rambling there :)
