Saturday Nov 23. 

It's Saturday. I'm going the library today. Did you know that you can get 50 books from the library at one time? No? Well I did. I've done it before. I wonder what would happen if I read everything in the library. I'd probably read the dictionary or something. I know I have a problem, but I'm not completely serious. I'd just reread my favorites. That should keep me occupied for a while. 

There's really no point in me writing right now so I guess I'm done. I'll write on Monday if we have an assignment.

We don't have a topic today, but I found this quote & I really like it.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure" I don't remember who said it but it was a line in a poem. It really stuck out to me because there's some strange truth to it. Like I'm not afraid of not being enough. If that makes sense. but I'm afraid of who & what I'll affect in the future if I don't live up to my potential. I don't know if what I'm writing makes sense .So lets just say it sounded cool. 

Thanksgiving is on Thursday. Break starts on Wednesday. I will probably write a lot over break even if we don't have a topic, since I'll probably be done with my books by then.

Tuesday Nov 26. 

I sit alone at lunch everyday. Usually I read but today I'm going to write. So I sit at a table in the corner. There's 2 seats but halfway through lunch someone usually takes the other one. Sitting by myself used to be embarrassing but I've gotten used to it. I actually enjoy it. I get to sit back & watch how things work. I know about more drama then you can imagine. I'll give you an idea though...

Drama time

⦁The cheerleader's boyfriend is cheating on her with a girl named Rebecca. 

⦁The linebacker uses LSD

⦁Britany thinks she's a lesbian

⦁That kid in my art class cuts himself

I could go on forever. Mrs. Mariano if you're reading this don't report it to anyone. For all you know I'm just kidding.

I'm really just emphasizing the point that I get to view everything from the outside. I don't have friends but I know some of these people extremely well. 

I wish I could help them out when they had problems. That would probably be weird though especially considering they don't know I listen to their conversations.

Oh yeah Our topic over break is to write one thing we love for each day of break.
