Panic!

I'm a bit over dramatic when it comes to scary movie previews on TV. When I am watching TV and I see a trailer for a scary movie, my first reaction is to immediately look away and cover my ears. It's like a reflex now. Then I look for the remote and press Mute. If I can't find the remote, I keep my eyes closed/ears covered and sing or hum.
Today, I was watching TV when the preview for Let Me In (which by the way, Isn't a scary movie and is just a rip off of Let the Right One In) came on. Let the Right One In might not have been a scary movie, but the preview for this new American version looks scary (to me). So, I did what I do in that situation, but I couldn't find the remote. I started to panic, and literally ran towards the TV and shut it off.
I know that any reader will now consider me a nutcase, but I'm just sick of being haunted by the images and creepy sounds from those previews shown on TV.

2001

Nine years ago, I was sitting in class being the mischievous little kid that I was in third grade. Of course I don't remember much about what happened, just that my teacher stopped everything and turned on the television so we could all watch the news. I don't think any of us knew what had happened. I asked my mom if the people from the buildings were flying and she told me that they were. I would have liked it better if she told me the truth. I remember in art class we drew stuff about that day, and I think I drew the towers on fire.. That was really inappropriate but I didn't know..
Sometime last year, I got really obsessed with 9/11 and started doing a bunch of research and stuff. I didn't understand then, but I understand now. So many lives were lost... and Today, people want to burn the Koran (Qur'an) as a "remembrance" of the victims. Americans were not the only victims. Now, all kinds of Islamic people are hated because of what has happened. Now there is no trust. Now everything is more hostile. People think it is difficult to trust people of another religion, as if that wasn't already a problem, it just got worse.
anyway...
Spare a thought for the ones who died on this day..
and if you could, check out this guys link, because I guess it kind of makes sense.

Friday

Friday was one hell of a day, so I thought I would tell you all about it.
It was a great morning. Got to school a few minutes before the bell rang and got to spend that time with Gabriel. That was nice. First period is fun because Stephany brings out the Goofy in me. She talks very loudly though, and does not know when to shut up. The teacher, Mrs. Nahar, ended up moving her to a different table because of that. I don't see why. We all get our work done. There's a bitch in first period that I really dislike. I call her Bitch from First Period. I think her name is Valerie. I wont waste anymore time writing about her.
Second period is also fun because.. the class just has a very chill vibe. hah, chill. I got that from Cord. He's in the class. :) I still have not been acquainted with everyone, but they all are nice. Even Alejandro. and everyone seems to dislike Alejandro. I'm not sure why.
I don't like third period. It is very boring and I usually sit next to a girl that I have never really liked... At least Cassie is in the class with me. I always like my walk to fourth period because I am walked to class by Gabriel and Cassie.<3
After school, Gabriel and I planned taking the bus all the way to the Spectrum. Tony though it was unusual to see Gabriel on the bus because.. well because he's a spoiled guy that never takes the bus and his parents were debating whether or not to let him ride it. arrived and went to McDonald's where a little kid tried to strangle Gabriel. Gabriel ate style three burgers. I had a Sweet Tea. :)
We walked to Harkins and when we passed by Best Buy, we noticed it was dark inside. The power was out. We kept on walking and every store was closed due to a power outage. I was about to get really pissed off when we arrived at Harkins and the power was out there as well. It was a hot day and the wind was even hotter. We searched for a place with shade so we could sit and wait because the lady said it would be a 3-4 hour wait. It was (3:40ish). We sat at some tables in front of that "paradise something" store and the lights went on almost instantly. We rushed back to Harkins and there was already a long line of people waiting to buy their tickets.
Then, out of the blue, it started to rain! I was so happy. It was awesome heavy rain, too. Oh and also, I finally had that kiss in the rain experience. (lol)
Gabriel bought the tickets and then some fries, and we headed to theater 17. It was nearly empty. During the movie, a worker came and told us to sit up, and that if we didn't we would have to leave. We had our feet on the seats next to ours because the theater was practically empty. Damn. That lady would have totally gotten me in a bad mood if the movie wasn't so awesome. (Takers).
My mom picked me up and I went home. I usually tweet from my phone and when I saw that none of my tweets were on my profile, I checked facebook. I also update facebook from texts sometimes, and the ones I had sent that day were not on my wall. I asked people if they had received any texts from me that day and they all said No.
I hate virgin mobile. I checked the website, and nothing. Apparently it's the virgin mobile service because my friend is having the same problem. I was receiving texts hours after they were sent. It is still not working properly.
Friday was a strange day.
