I really don't understand people sometimes. What possesses someone to plant bombs at the finish line of the Boston Marathon? Whoever it was would know that it would be packed with people. And it would be a happy place because everyone was finishing. Why do people want to purposely hurt others? It seems like the most selfish thing in the world. It's a cry for attention. Why would you do that? It doesn't seem like a prison sentence would be enough. I don't mean a death sentence either. From my perspective death would be easier. Why not go sit in a room full of the people you hurt? Could you look a single one of them in the face?

I hope they catch whoever it was soon. I suppose everyone wants that, but I'll join the masses. Whoever the bomber(s) is(are): you are beyond words. It wouldn't be enough to say you're frakked up or that you're a total ass, but we can start there. Screw you.

I know there's not much I can do for anyone, but prayers and hope can go a long way, I think.

Seventeen

Tomorrow I'll be eighteen, legally an adult. I don't feel like a grown up, haha. Still in school, still taking tests, ect.... I'm just going to make a list of what's been up, in case I ever look back through here later.

1. I'm reading The Girl Who Played With Fire. I'm really liking the Steig Larsson trilogy. 
2. Dad and I are watching a TON of Swedish mysteries. It's ridiculous, but I swear Swedish sound like French.
3. Tennis was good this year. Cierra and I took second at Regionals and fifth at state. Listen to Steve Aoki's "Livin' My Love."
4. Garbing and assistant directing for "Carousel." It's gonna be awesome.
5. Turned out some decent art. Nothing totally wowing, but some stuff I like all right. I'm trying some pieces based off Tamora Pierce covers.
6. Taking AP Psychology was a bad idea haha. At least right now. I am SO behind. Right now it's at a 45% and I need to get it up to have any hope of being salutatorian. I'll work on it. Hard core. Being salutatorian would be legit.
7. It's been pretty good this year.
8. Battlestar Galactica. Still lovin' it. Freaking gahhhh. Also, Rizzoli & Isles is pretty funny. Maura's not Maura, but she's cool. Major Crimes season two is out next summer! YES! haha. 
9. I'm hoping to try fencing at college. Or rowing. I'd still like to play bagpipe.
10. I'd like to got to Virginia Tech for college, but I pretty much have a full ride to UW, so I'll see how the scholarships turn out. Remember to reply by May 1st. 
11. Running. I'd like to take that up this summer. Go for a run or some parcour in Beck Lake. Ride the whole way down Prickly Pear Alley. 
12. Love the dogs and the cats.
13. Brave and Promethius were good. Promethius was my first R-rated movie with Jeff.
14. Jeff and Amanda and I need to hang.
15. The regular gang needs to hang.
16. Hey, there's almost eighteen things here now.
17. Try being vegan for a bit. 
18. Be the shizzle.
