Listening To My Dad

The day before we left for the city I was getting directions from my dad. "Straight out of the Ferry head left" so we do. We keep walking left and following the water. We had a map by the way but I figured if we head left and follow the water we would eventually hit the place since it was on the water.

Eventually I got fed up and called when he said "No I said Right" I hung up on him walked away from my girlfriend and friend had my hands in a fist and tried calming down. When my girlfriend was about to walk over I said "No, stay there!" then when I finally calmed down I said "ok lets go" they asked what happened and I told them and my girlfriend said "ok why dont we just backtrack" and still a little pissed I said "I'm not backtracking, we just need to walk across. IF we backtrack we're walking even more and I dont have the patience for it" And through all this my friend is saying "We're dead"

We finally get there two hours later then I had planned with all the delays.

BODIES!!

So yeah this past Saturday My girlfriend, my best friend and I went to The Bodies Exhibit in the city. That was a fun adventure.

First last weekend we were complaining how there was nothing to do so I suggested the city and when she agreed my response in my head was "F*** me what did I do?!?" so like Thursday I was asking my friends to see who actually goes to the city. When I found one I asked her what she did there. With shows out since I didnt feel like spending $300 this weekend and a few other suggestions that didnt quite hit it off, then she mentioned "The Bodies Exhibit" which definitly hit it off.

My answer was "My girlfriend is weird she would like that stuff" so I decided to surprise her with it and at first she seemed down. Then when I said the bodies are real she ran towards the building. Of course the whole time my friend was saying how much he hates the city and he is afriad of it and then back in Staten Island he said he hates this island. So he is just a complainer.

Work Work Work

I feel I just cannot keep up with English, I mean we are focused on this book that was extremely boring and seemed repetititve in what it talked about. Yet we wrote 3-6 page paper on it, 2 2-3 page papers on it and now a another 2 page paper on it. Which is all building up to a 6-8 page paper. I think I can safely say that its a bit much.

I mean come on cut it down a bit. Its a bit much to handle, especially for one class. Put all the classes together its far too hectic.

To add to it, I feel like there are not enough days off to catch up and check some things off the list. Two days a week is not enough to catch up on whats due the next week when it builds up way too much before we get to those two days. Not to mention time to sleep and get a little entertainment in those two days.

Too Much Work

I cant handle all this work, At first I thouht it was just me putting it all off until the end but I realized no its just alot. I dont get it, first semester was fine and I didnt have a problem, this semster is extremely hectic. Mainly english and pshycology. Not to mention Math since I have a natural hard time with that anyway.

Psychology is just hard because what goes on in the class is pointless since my teacher just has conversations with the students and everything seems in the book but the book protrays it horribly.

As for English it is jsut alot of writing. Mainly 2-3 page papers and a few 6-8 which are starting to get on my nerves.

What is that?

Ok since I kind of glanced over it at the end of the last post I figured I might as well go into it. More then a year ago the former friend of mine was in the woods with me and as we were heading in the direction back to my house the trees were becoming less dense and I found a pile of hair in the snow.

My immediate response was "What the f*** is this?" I had originally thought maybe something shed it's winter coat until my former friend called me over and there was something else.

My friend asks me what it is and I say "Thats a jaw buddy, look around" and we find some more things.





Then we found the last thing...




And just for a laugh, we went back for the camera.

Alone in the Woods

I dont know, but sometimes I just like to be alone. Near my house in Pennsylvania there is an area inside the woodsthat seems calm and nice to just sit and relax.

Maybe a footballs field length into the woods after a steep drop there is a pathway cutout from ATV use but its rare to see them. There is a stream that follows the path and a tree next to the stream hanging over it that seems nice just sit and think. Then if you follow the path of ATVs it stops or at leasy you should since its takes a very steep drop and off to the left going down is fallen trees and jagged rocks and the stream entering out over some of it and then on the otherside there is a wall of rocks with water coming down it.

Now if you head in the complete opposite maybe about 5 football fields away the forest gets extremely thick all of a sudden maybe because they are different trees. Off to the right before the forest is a giant sink hole which I through my former friend into when there was snow in it. Off to the far left before the forest gets thick is a hill to go up that leads deeper into the forest and there is a flat meadow at the top of the mountain in the woods. And then you start to see signs telling you to go back and leave because we are on a gun range. Oh well.

I dont know, sometimes I just wish I was there, and I wish my dog didnt run into every direction so that I can sit and relax with her and not have to chase her. Oh yeah there are bears, deer and cougers in there but I never saw one. I did see something else though.




What a funny night

Ok so one of the people who I stopped talking to from high school attempted to get the one I still talk to from high school to play the middle man and get us to be friends again. Problem is this guy sucks as a middle man and wouldnt tell him what I really said which was along the lines of "What the fuck is the point? He is still friends with all the people I hate. We wouldnt hang out together because he hangs out with them. So what? A title of friendship without a friendship. That sounds fun." Instead he said "I will tell him your busy with school".

Instead I just IMed him telling him that. He gave me some bullshit story but we are talking again but I have him at arms length because I am not an idiot. But funny thing was he was suppose to hang out with my friend and go to the mall and he told me to come but this was at 5 in the morning so we would both be getting up late. I woke up at 2 in the after noon. He woke up at 3 then fell back to sleep after eating and woke up at like 6. At around 3 in the afternoon

I texted my friend asking if he was at the mall and he said no and if he heard from the other guy and he said no so I asked him if he wanted to hang out. We are hanging out in my room and when I go online this kid is on and Ims me at like 8:30 saying "Yeah I think the mall is out" I asked why and he said because its too late and I told him "You do know the mall is open till 10 right?" and he goes "yeah but there is no way Matt will come out now. Its too late for him (Since this kid usually has a stick up his ass)" so I looked at him and laughed and said "yeah your probably right" and we both laughed since he didnt even want to go to the mall anyway.

I dont know just had me laughing for a while.

Prostitution

Alright why not....it should just be legalized. Everybody knows that it is out there and happening yet people seem intent on believing that, mainly in this country, people are incapable of doing such things out of morals and are better then that. Everybody knows it is out there yet we stay a country intent on living in disbelief and denial.

I mean technically diseases do spread from it but your not going to stop people from doing it. It is two people who give consent on having sex but one is recieving money and the other possibly guilt. If the government would just accept it then you could have the prostitutes register, the government demand weekly examinations and threaten to take away their license and arest them if they dont, and also put a tax on it so that the government can get a piece of the action metaphorically speaking.

Your never going to stop it from happening so why live in denial of its existence and always act surprised when you find out someone is capable of doing such a thing. Instead we turn our backs on them and wave our fingers at them saying "Your an evil person, that was horrible, your a bad person, have you no respect?, have you no morals?"

If we stopped being the country who thinks our shit dont stink and that our people are better then well EVERYBODY, because there are some people we are better then, and we can accept not our countries faults but the faults in humans in general then maybe we would be looked at in such a horrible light.

Empathy

I love Empathy yet it seems nobody is empathetic anymore. Nobody takes other's feelings into consideration nor do they consider what they are doing if they would like the same to them. I had such a great night yesterday, I got my ex to feel empathetic to the crap she use to pull on me when we were going out. I am not going to go into the details since well I just dont want to but it led to her crying and apologizing. I am not ashamed to say I felt great. I cant describe how big the smile on my face was and how I wanted to scream because I was so happy. I am also going to make sure that this is not the last time. I enjoyed that feeling too much to let it just go once, not to mention she has a long way to go before we are even.
