Music When The Lights Go Out - The Libertines |
] |
Just finished one of the few final exams I have to take. It was crap. Havn't updated for a while, but what the heck.
Last night I spent virtually all day reading a 209 page book, with so many distractions, I really am surprised I actually finished. I spent time talking and catching up with an old friend, besointoxicante, watching videos on YouTube, taling over MSN and just plan procrastinating. And when I was reading the book, I was listening to The Libertines, which are my latest musical craze, but I won't go and tell everybody to download 'em, since other people are very well going deep into their own. I just have talk about 'em to a lucky, or unlucky, few.
But everytime I listened to the CD (which I did about 9-10 times), I had to stopped and listen to Music When The Lights Go Out, that's just a great fuckin' song, you know.
Tonight I'mma go to Alexandra's Senior Ring Ceremony. She wanted me to go, and found a ticket so I could go, and I don't wanna let her down, so I'mma go and spent some time there. Plus, one of my best friends is going, so I bet that it won't be bad. After that, we go out to party.
I havn't really talked to Alexandra for the past couple of days, which is kinda weird, since she used to call me every single day. I tried calling her, but she didn't pick up, though the other day she did call me back. I don't know if I like her or not, she has some seriously annoying aspects of her, and she always wants attention, which I don't know if I'm capable of giving to her now.
Tomorrow I start work ! Working on what, you may ask. Landscapping. Yes, landscapping. I don't know crap about it, but I'mma do it with a friend. I'm getting paid $250 for two-three days of hard labor, which is good. I need the money to buy a bass.
I just bought a whole jar of nutella, which is awesome, man. Oh, do I love nutella...

Fuck. I'm really hungry. I'm not kidding.
I got on my Dylan shirt on, and I feel good about it. It's been a long time since I've used it, so seeing it again just put a smile on my face and I just had to wear it today.
Yes, I know, this is not the usual Joey entry, but I have a Hamlet test today and I really don't want to study about it, so I decided to update my LJ with not such dramatic things.
Havn't talked to Alexandra. Well, I sorta did, I called her, just out of boredom, asked her if she was busy, she said yes and told me she would call me later. She did call later, but only to tell me that she did it so I wouldn't wait for her call, which isn't true, I was about to hit the sack. She kept calling me 'sweetie' or something ... is that good or bad ? She told me she would call me today. I saw on her MySpace that she knew some people from Audrey school, and I'm really intrigued by it, and want to ask her about it.
( Oh, I won 2nd place... )
I really should start studying. Not really. I'mma read Sparknotes and stuff.
I really miss some people.

She Will Be Loved - Maroon 5 |
] |
I think I've neglected you guys long enough, plus, I'm too excited about what has been going on to keep it to myself.
Thursday night, I went with my best friend to a beach house, his girlfriend was celebrating that she was a senior from now on, and all her class did so too, plus two other schools and anyone else, like me. We get there about 10pm, and we go to this basketball court, which is completely filled with kids. It was right along the beach. My friend got to his girlfriend and whatnot. Someway or another I was introduced to this girl, she extender her hand to me and told me her name was "Alexandra." We actually were going with the girls so they could pee behind some bushes.
I remember that Alexandra said something about going somewhere, and me saying 'Are you gonna leave us alone?' and she grabbed me by the hand and dragged me along, saying that I'll go too.
But all of the sudden one of the girls passed out. She was drunk. The next two hours were spent dealing with how to get her to a safe place. She was throwing up, she couldn't stay up, or even stand on all four. My best friend took charge of the situation, mostly. I was there giving the help that was needed. But I spent most of the time giving Alexandra moral support. She was crying because she didn't like to see her friend like that. I was trying to calm her down.
We even went running for some water, so that it could be given to the sick girl. While she was running, she lost her cellphone, and we search for it. She was panicking, saying she wasn't gonna find it, while I reassure here we will, that we wouldn't stop until we found it. Minutes later, we did.
I was really taken aback with this girl. She's really strong-willed. Has this light, blue eyes, which almost look white. And she is beautiful. We got along pretty well, you know, I always get along with girls.
We kinda spent a lot of time together. She has a boyfriend, though she doesn't know why she's with him, and wants to leave him soon. I always get stuck with woman who are in a relation, eh ? Anyways, it was all really weird. We held hands, a couple of time and stuff. I ran my finger through her hair, she likes that. She also likes "tostones" (a local food) and Tropicana Orange Juice.
When we were leaving, we took her to the beach house she was staying at, and she was sitting on my lap. We were all snuggly and stuff. She had my Rolling Stones Trucker cap on, and my lil' Buddhist wrist beads on. I told her to take care of my trucker cap, that I want to see it safe next time we met. I think she tried to kiss my lips, but I sorta moved my head a bit, and she ended up kissing right besides my lips.
I actually thought that, if we ever meet again, it would be a long time for now. I hadn't gotten her phone number or anything, since things were so weird. And today I went to a show, with this other girl, who my best friend, Audrey, told me that she had admitted to having a crush on me.
While I was dropping a friend at her home, I get this phone call. I asked out loud "Who's calling me at this hour?" (it was 2:15am). The phone number wasn't one I knew or was in my address book. I answer, and this sulky, girl voice came from the other end. She said "Hello," with such poised and confidence, as though I knew who this person was. I said "Hello" back, kinda confused by the unexpected call, and ended up asking who it was. As cryptic as she could be, she answered "The senior." This was such a weird answer, but I put 2 and 2 together, and figured out it was her.
I was surprise, to say the least. And we talked, it was such a nice thing, for real. She had found my phone number, but didn't want to tell me who gave it to her, I bet it was my best friend, though. He had talked to her, and she admited to kinda liking me, or something, I havn't talked to him about it, he just said something along the lines. I had spent this whole day trying to find her on MySpace, but failed to do so, and all of the sudden, she calls. It was almost too good to be true.
So now, I have her phone number, she has mine. She told me that she had spent a great day yesterday, and that she had had some troubles with some girls, and that when she went to sleep, she started to play around with my beads, and it made things better and relaxed her.
I don't know what's gonna happen, and I don't want to get all excited or anything. Let's see where this takes me.
I know this entry kinda sucked .. I'm sorry. But .. you know, I'm kinda excited.

Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 - Bob Dylan |
] |
Life's been pretty tough, not to mention that I'm really hungry at this very moment.
Like I mentioned before, Puerto Rico is going through some shitty econmical moments. I thought that my last day of classes would've been this Friday, but I've found out that they had sufficient fonds for 2 more weeks. So, that's basically what we had left of classes.
Last night I had to write my Biology paper, after I got it done, I went and like, took a small break when my computer decided it was a good time to freeze up. I had to re-do the entire conclusion, and it ended up being shorter than the one before, but I could care less. I actually was short one page for the desire page number the teacher told us, but I think this one's better than my last one, since I got really specific facts that proved my hipothesis to be correct.
Today I wake up, and go to my class that I havn't been there since ... last week's Tuesday, and I had to read a book for that class. There was a quiz .. I left in blank. I didn't remember that we had to read that book for today. That really got me down .. way down. And I also had to bring it a proposition of a work that I have to hand in, completely forgot about that too. Talked to the teacher after class, she told me the usual, like everyone else I've known, that I could do a lot better, that I have the potential. She even said that I could be better than all the other students in the class. She says it because I have an eye of finding the truth behind the tests we study and whatnot. I've always liked details. I guess that's why I can come up with certain things.
Ah, yesterday I also started with the whole changing of college thing. So, I'm guessing its now official. I went to the other college and saw that it was more ... close-knit and more personal, unlike here where they treat you as just another number. Today, I'm going to ask for my credits transcripts, so that they can be sent to the other college and see if they take me in, but that's a sure thing.
So, I'm gonna head out soon to hand in the proposition thingie that I just did, eat something, go to my Biology class, hand in my paper, and then see some of the other classmates' paper being presented for the class.

My lil's island is on some big pile of shit right now.
We were recently informed that the government is virtually bankrupt, and as of this Friday, April 30th, the government will not be able to continue paying the salary for government funded employees. Public schools, my college, everything that is government pay will go into a recess until this crisis is over, and God knows how long will that take.
The Senators are now voting for a motion to get a loan that will supply us until June 30th, and it is expected that by today, the Senate will all agree to this. Then its up to Congress, who are the ones to decide whether this should be done or not ... if Congress doesn't agree, this is the last week of work/study for many.
The main reason that they have to close down so many things is because the need to fund the police, hospitals and such things that are crucial for the country to not go into complete chaos, if not, they won't be able to pay the police, hence no police around, or keep maintining the hospitals and other health centers running properly.
Not only that, but many organizations of workers and such have even said that they would go on strike. There is also rumors that there will be student strikes at our college.
Everyone is shitting in their pants. This means I won't be able to go to college 'till who knows when, I had a few things due for next week ... This also means that we'll start college again, possibly, at the middle of summer to end this year's semester.
I can't say I'm scared or worried. I guess I'm still trying to figure things out myself. I know that my explanations of our current situation is not clear enough, but its the best I can do, with just hearing a few things here and there that are the most important facts of the whole thing.
This might mean chaos. And the newspaper and news aren't helping, they're giving everyone a scare with how they are treating this sort of information. This is crazy. I'll just hope that this will turn out all right.

My test. Lord.
Today I woke up, did the usual, tried to squeeze in a few hours of studying. My preparation was limited ... I can go as far as to say as it was worthless. The material for this test .. It was too much. It is everything that we've discussed in class since the beginning of the semester, and this was the only test we've taken for the class. Roman history, I like it, I wasn't sweating it much, but still was nervous about the test.
I get to college, and I'm sitting there, inside the classroom, while my other classmates discuss things of the material. I listened to everything they say, like how I did in high school every morning before a big test, see what I could pick up and "learn."
In comes the proffesor. He has them lil' notebooks, made infamous by every college movie out there. It's a pastel color, hidieous. He passes them out, we fill our names, student number, the usual information . . . And he tells us "Ready ? The question is long."
"The question is long?" I thought to myself, I was about to cry, not really, but you get the idea. He had told us about a True or False and then a question, that was suppose to be our test, not this question ... and he starts.
Explain, in details, the following periods of Roman historic periods: It's mythological origins; the rise, development and fall of the monarchic period; the rise, development and fall of the Republic. Emphazise on the political, social, economic, cultural and religious factors which characterize each of the periods and made the transcicions between each period possible.
My head started to run. Start with the Trojan War, that's it, start babling, proffesor always get impress by that, and they give you points because of all the useless info you have.
And somehow, he tells us to hand it in on Monday ! Everyone in the room gave forth a sigh of relief. This question would've taken everyone the entire class period to have it done. So, we have to fill this piece of crap notebook, about 20 pages or more, of all that info.
I have a long weekend ahead. I have to read the first to Acts of Hamlet for Monday, too. I've got a lot to do. Maybe I'll spend more time studying than doing nothing.

It really feels like that tonight, you know, like a drag, updating this thing and whatever. But I feel the .. urge, no, the obligation to do so ... don't even know why. Don't even know how many people read or will read this.
I couldn't play The Time They Are A-Changin' for my class, I have to do it on Tuesday. Went to that Beatles tribute, Audrey couldn't go, so I called one of my best buds, Alex, and we went there. We were like "It's been a while since we've gone there and shook our booties." And I was all like "Yea."
So we were there 'till almost midnight when we decided to go. I parked on my mom's job's parking, since its free, even though we have to walk like 10 minutes or so. We were singing Beatles songs all the way, just the two of us (look ! I even made a Beatles reference there !) when this old woman stops us, telling us she had had a prophesy.
We stood there an listened, since she basically stepped infront of us and we couldn't pass. She had it written down, and she pointed it out, as though that would be reason enough to make this whole thing believable. She was telling us of Puerto Rico's end of days. It was near. She explained that first there would be hunger (and I almost told her, dhamn, you're right. I am hungry, but decided not to, since I didn't want to offend her), then an earthquake would follow. The U.S. would close their doors to us, and leave us stuck on the island, and a war would start ... not any ol' war, a NUCLEAR WAR. She told us she had spoken with the Holy Ghost, and that we should too, she told us her name and said that we could tell the Holy Ghost that she told us the prophesy, and pray so that we might find salvation.
She told us to read Mathew 24, or something ... and if stopping us and making us hear her out wasn't enough, she asked for money at the end. I wasn't about to give her anything, but my friend gave her a quarter and we were on our way. I told her "God Bless You" she said some other stuff, but we were moving on, saying "Amen" or something that had a religious connotation. When we were out of her earing range, we began to laugh. A nuclear war here ? We barely have fireworks, let alone nuclear bombs and stuff.
Got home at 1am, woke up at 5am, went to college, didn't go to my first class, since I had a test later on, and I hadn't studied shit for it.
Took the test, couldn't decide whether it was easy or not, or if I would pass or fail, I just did it. Picked up my mom later on .. came back, and here I am. I'm suppose to be studying for a test tomorrow about Roman history, but I can't find the interest to do so. My head hurts like hell...

Well, I've been neglecting you folks for a while now. I guess I'll give you a rundown of what has happened to me recently.
I've been going to college again, and I think I'mma transfer to a new one. I can't keep on studying on the one I am, it has too many distraction, too lose and it's really ... it isn't organize. I feel like I have ADD when I'm there.
Yesterday, the twins called and we went tou hang out. While Ceci was with his boyfriend making out, I stayed with Cristi, talking. Yes, ladies and gentleman, I can talk to a girl I made out with and have a really enjoyable conversation without any sexual tension or awkwardness. I had to pick up my mom and then the worst part of the day happened .. a two-hour traffic jam.
I was in a car for 3 hours, and Lord, did it suck. My leg hurt like a bitch.
Then my stepmom calls that I have to do her favor. But I got to see my two lil' bros, and it has been a while .. seems like ages, but I guess it might be like 2 or 3 months since I saw 'em last.
Came back home and went to sleep early, since the last few days I've been going to sleep late and waking up early. That's just not good at all.
Today I have to play The Times They Are A-Changing in my English class, and then discuss it. I know the song, but sometimes I get the lyrics confused. Let's see how it goes. Havn't play to an "audience" since like ... 2 years. And I had sunglasses and play and sang with my eyes closed the whole time. But it wasn't until now that I'm writting this that I got butterflies in my stomach.
And tonight, I think I'mma go with Audrey to see a Beatles tribute band and dance my ass off ... and I have Biology test tomorrow that I know nothing of ! woo-hoo !
