You’ll find me in the same spot believe me

So my friend Al hurt his knee really bad. It’s been like 2 weeks now and it is just getting worse. He is normally a very active guy, so he is practically dying from not being able to do anything. I am not an active person but eventually this would annoy me also. I guess we really take things like our knees for granted. He works with me, so even just standing at work gives him pain. And our work is not strenuous. Now I will no longer take my ability to walk and run or even stand for granted. So if you think about it, you should shoot up a prayer for him so he can get back to his normal life.

I wrote the gospel on giving up

Yuck! So yesterday in my biology lab class I had to dissect a frog. Now I know that most people already did this in either jr. high or high school, but I didn’t. I dissected a pig’s heart, but that’s about it. It is disgusting how you have to cut through organs and even the rib cage.I really did not want to do it. I love animals and I love to learn about them, but please, just give me a diagram or something. Luckily we worked in partners and mine did most of the work. Of coarse I helped, but it was awful. And of coarse, the stench of the formaldehyde wasn’t that great either. My teacher said that frogs are going extinct very quickly due to some killer fungus. Poor Kermit!

there's somebody else who feels the same somewhere

Why is my dad not a rockstar? That is the question I have been pondering. Last night I was reading some of the book U2 by U2 and I got to the part where it's 1989, the year I was born. and both the edge and bono have daughters who are born around the same time as me. One is even like ten days older than me. And i'm thinking, wow somewhere around the world those girls have a completely different life. Their dads are rich.. and mine is just a failure. I know that i shouldn't say that, but I couldn't help but imagine what my life would be like if my dad were in U2. I think that I would want the edge to be my dad. Yes, that sounds good.
