| last night of class |
[Dec 5, 2006 | 1:08am] |
I'm super sleepy so I won't be saying much now.
Tonight was my last night of Arabic class. I thought next week was, which is why it was so dissapointing and depressing. I didn't really get it until now, but after obverving my teacher and his eagerness to meet everyone who's ever been in or lived in or is from the Middle East. I think that, although he has a lot of family here, he deeply misses his home and his people and tries to fill the gap with anyone who's been there and knows what he's missing. I also think the fact that he really has no homeland is a huge factor too (he's Palestinian) and it's kind of sad. He gave me his email and cell number though, so I could talk to him about further language instruction and about exchange programs or anything else. He didn't know I was a high school student, so when he found out he was super surprised and impressed that I care enough about learning Arabic and stuff.
But at least there's hope - it IS possible to learn good Arabic without being raised speaking it. He said the director of African Studies (or something like that) at UW Madison is this white American who speaks perfect Egyptian dialect. He said when he, a native speaker, talks to him he feels stupid and has to keep looking at the guy in disbelief that an American can speak like he does.
He also confused 'porcupine' with 'concubine'. LOL. BIG PAINFUL DIFFERENCE.

I think in a British accent. If I whisper something to myself, like while I'm doing homework and mumble something or am reading, I do it in a British accent. What. the. fuck. I blame it on too much British TV, like Doctor Who and whatnot.
If Rose doesn't come back somehow next season I'm going to have to choke a bitch. Anyone who's got BBC, when season 3 starts you've got to tell me if Rose is back because I'm almost a season behind (beginning of Season 2). If that random bride in the TARDIS is the Doctor's new companion, I'm going to have to cut a bitch! I still love how, after a sad finale that makes you cry like a baby, they still manage to make you laugh at the very end.

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
The blackest of rooms
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
( Then I'll follow you into the dark )

| Grounded |
[Jun 26, 2006 | 1:58pm] |
I'm grounded from the computer for a week. So, I can get on before my mom gets home, except on the weekend and Wednesday. Here's what happened (it's really stupid):
Last week my mom left me a note saying to do the laundry. I go downstairs and there's towels next to the washer and in the washer and dryer. Plus, she always asks me to do just the towel, so logically, I think that she means to do the towels. So I do the towels. And she asks me that night what I had done, I said towels. She sees me carrying up TOWELS from the basement to fold and put away. The only way it could be clearer is if I had a neon sign over my head that said, "KLE IS WASHING TOWELS!"
So Saturday she goes downstairs and see what, gasp, only the towels are done. Well, no shit sherlock. Apparently she meant for me to do her laundry too. WTF? So she comes storming into my room and it goes like this (Keep in mind - she's yelling the entire time):
Her: YOU LIED! YOU ONLY DID THE TOWELS. YOU LIED! YOU'RE LAZY AND YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING AROUND HERE!
Me: What are you talking about?
Her: YOU LIED! YOU ONLY DID THE TOWELS!
Me: Well...yeah, that's what was by the washer...?
Her: I SAID TO DO ALL THE LAUNDRY?
Me: No, you didn't.
Her: YES I DID, I SAID I SORTED IT TO GET YOU STARTED!
Me: Well, there were towels near the washer and in the washer so I thought that's what you meant.
Her: I SAID I SORTED THEM!
Me: No, you didn't. When did you say that? (She really didn't say that, I swear.)
Her: YOU'RE A LIAR!
At this point I decided to stand up for myself instead of what I normally do: say "whatever" and imagine bashing their heads in for a few hours.
Me: NO I'M NOT!
Her: YES YOU ARE! YOU'RE A LIAR! YOU LIED!
Me: NO!
Her: DON'T YOU DARE RAISE YOUR VOICE AT ME!!!!
Me: I'M ONLY YELLING BECAUSE YOU'RE YELLING AT ME AND CALLING ME A LIAR, WHICH I'M NOT - I DIDN'T LIE! I thought you only wanted me to do the towels!
Her: WELL THEN EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT LYING, HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE?!?!
She walked out and slammed the door.
Me: SCREW YOU!
She runs back in...well, actually she can't run because she's such a fatass.
Her: DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT TO ME! YOU'RE GROUNDED FOR A WEEK - NO COMPUTER, TV, NOTHIN' - YOU LIKE SITTING AROUND AND DOING NOTHING ALL WEEK THEN YOU CAN DO IT!
Ugh...Seriously, what a fucking cunt. While this went on she had a bunch of hangers in her hand - I thought she was going to start hitting me, in which case I would have beat the shit out of her.
And another thing that bugs me about this whole thing - she wanted me to do HER laundry. WTF? Yeah, I'm on vacation now, but she pulls the same shit when I'm in school. She claims that she can't because she's, "too busy and tired from working." Bullshit. She works 4 days a week from 9-3. She claims that she's tired from walking around - again, total bullshit. The office is about as big as her room and my room combined, and all she does is sit on her ass anyway. In the meantime, I go to school 5 days a week, from 8:30-3:30, and I walk miles on a daily basis. Walking from class to class in under 7 minutes - she can't even walk down the main fucking hallway in my school in under 5 minutes. WTF. She says it's because she's "old" - no, it's because you're a fatass. If you weren't such a lardass, then you'd be able to do it - your age has nothing to do with it. She always complains about arthritis - well guess what, dumbass? Your knees and feet wouldn't be "killing you" if you stopped drinking liters of Pepsi a day of eating chocolate and ice-cream every day. Plus, I have homework and studying to do. So no, do your own goddamned laundry. The only person who has an excuse to not do laundry is my grandpa, because he ACTUALLY works.
And she complains about stress. Bullshit. I worked in that office for a summer a few years ago, and I don't think your job could get much more low-stress than that.
So sit on it, bitch.

I've decided to diet and exercise. Not only that, but to try to become a better person. I don't know how I'm going to do that. But for starters, I'm going to get better grades and become more active in the political scene -- which would be things that are Pro-Palestine and Pro-Gay Marriage.
