It woke me up this morning.

I woke up to the garbage truck this morning. Only I didn't think it was the garbage truck. I mistake it for the infamous school bus. But the thing is, this morning I wanted to go.

I did think at first that I had school today,but then I remember. Today was the first day of summer. Normally I'd be excited about this event, but today not so much. I actually wish I was in school. But maybe that's becaue this last week we didn't do anything. All I had to do this last week was say goodbye.

It was harder than I expected though. Good-bye is one of the hardest things to do. It breaks you down, makes you cry. It's not one of the more pleasant experiences.

Today I was thinking about the stages of my middle school experience and what happened there. Elementry and high school too.

In early years of the school, when it ends the teachers are sad, but not as much. The students are happy, they aren't leaving anyone and they get summer vacation. When it gets to be more in the middle, teachers are a lot bit more sad but they still will still see them. But at the end, everyone's sad. In elementry and middle, schools are splitting up. In high school, everyone's going to a different school. Teacher's are going to see there students. Everyone's sad. It's the time for the final goodbye for some.

Sometimes I'm writing this for everyone. But now that I think about this, this is for me. I'm really glad that you read this, and it helps though to read others thoughts. Other's lives.

It's May!

I'm sorry guys. I won't let that happen again.

I want to talk about secrets today. Wow I sound like some little kids t.v. show! But secrets are something that everybody has. It seems that way, everyone but me. Recently, my friends and I were going around saying some of the things that happened in their lives. Now I won't mention them, but these were some pretty big secrets. When it got to my turn, I didn't know what to say. I hadn't really kept any secrets from them. My biggest thing was that I was moving, and everybody had known that for a while. I quickly spilled something random, but it was nothing compared to what my friends were saying. Everybody had some sort of parent problem, except me. But now I do have a secret, but it's not the kind I can share they can. Secrets normally are one of two things- something that you are holding back from a person (people), or something that you are not allowed to say for confidential reasons. For example, if you were a governmet agent that had secrets, that'd obviously be the second one. Or if you had sex at the age of 15, that'd be the first. I have the second one. Obviously not a government secret, but something confidential.

Secrets really aren't fair, but they do make the world happen. There's things that people can just not know. People might think the system that we have here in the U.S. is completly honest. They're crap if that think that. Now I'm totally not going and conspiring against the government, but everyone and everything have secrets. Have I brought up that point enought yet?!

Something to think about.

What I Want to be When I Grow Up

Now this subject is brought up a lot. Not with people my age, but of all ages, toddlers to the old folk. My mom even says she doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up and she's a teacher, with a husband and two kids! There are some people in this world that immediately know what they want to do. My cousin, in third grade claimed that she was going to be a vet. Everyone of course said, "Aw how cute. Of course." She's a vet now.

But There's a lot of options to choose from and I'm not sure which path to take. But here's what I'm doing. I'm eliminating what I don't want to do. That's the easy part. Especially since I have a lot of those.

There are things I see everyday that changes that. Last night I was at my grandparents house and there was a book there called The Road Less Traveled, not the poem though. I started to read it. It was a book on physcology. I was really intrested in it. I never thought I would be the type that would be like that, but I guess I am. For example, I remember one car trip I was with my friend and I was pretending to be her shrink. I remember saying, "Yes, how do you feel about that?" She'd get a little mad, and I'd say, "Now let's not resort to violence." I remember laughing at the time. But a serious job like that? I'm not sure.

There's also the things I'm good at. I'm not sure how they tie in with what I like. For example, I'm really good at math, and sorta enjoy, but I'm horrible at science and hate it. That's a combination that doesn't normally go together. Plus, I'm not sure if enjoy it because I'm good at it.

There's a lot of kinks to this stuff. Now that I've given you something to think about, I'm going to leave you with a question. Do you know exactly what you want to be when you grow up?

Loving everything

The issue was brought upon to me about loving celebrities. To tell the truth, you can't truly love a celebrity; you just don't know them. Now you totally can think one is hot or cute, but love is a different matter. Some of my friends even throw out the world love like it's nothing. Like they will say, "I love Johnny Depp!!" Or something like that. Now when people ask about my celebrity crush, I do have a truthful answer. I say, "Oh my gosh, well David Beckham is so hot!" I truly think that, I don't like throwing out the word love like it's a quarter. It's got me thinking too though. I sign my posts, "Love, Levi". What do I mean by that? I don't exactly love you all, sorry people, but I still sign it like that. Maybe I just love the world. :). So from now on, I'm going to sign my posts, "Thanks for reading, Levi". Because that's true. And I like it that way.

Something to think about...

Hi people. There are a lot of things that happen in life, some things more altering than others. I have to say, moving is one of them. Yeah, I'm going to have to move. The thing is, I have lived in my house for more than 10 years, and my life is completly set up. I didn't realize before how it could change your life SO much. Sure, I've read all those books where the kids moves, or there's the new kid. But I never put that kid in my life and thought about what would happen if I moved. My life is going to completly change now. School, home, friends, teams, all will have to get again. I can't even get another pet, my cat just died, for in case we have to move into a temporary home and they don't allow it. Now I'm definatly not telling you about this for sympathy, I just want you to think about all the things that you have. I'm even thinking deeper than just moving, that I have my family and no one is seriosly sick or anything. So be thankful for what you have.

Love,
Levi

Pollution...

Normally, in my area there isn't a whole lot of pollution. I realize now that's because we don't have a single factory. I am now glad. I have obviously seen factories before, but never around my area. To see one, spewing out white spoke, left me disgusted. THAT is one of the reasons that the whole in the ozone layer is so big.

Anybody who doesn't believe in this stuff, I warn you, because I about to go on a little rant about it.

That factory, it reminds me of something that happened the other day. It also had to do with the environment and me leaving feeling disgusted.

I was riding in the car after a dinner with my neighbors, and global warming was brought up. One of my neighbor's mom was saying, "Oh yeah, they have been saying there's global warming since I was kid." So I said, "Well yeah!" But my neighbor's dad interrupted me and said, "What a bunch of phooey!" I was shocked, and I started to say, "Well have you seen the holes in the ozone layer.." but only could get out the well, before my friend silenced me with a nod. My neighbors went on talking about it, saying it was garbage, with me and my friend silenced in the back.

Once I got out of the car and out of their sight, I went on a rampage. I couldn't believe how naive they could be. But my friend said, "That's what they believe and you can't change their views." I quickly calmed down.

Now you might be thinking how naive I am to not know that, or to think there's global warming. I knew, but didn't think there was so many people. Especially not my neighbors. So my next poll, it's gonna be asking, "What do you think about global warming?" I better get a good response.

Love,
Levi

Things to do.....

Hey. I've been sick today and I want to state the obvious. It sucks!!! Here's some things that you can do if you are sick or just plain bored.

1. Create a blog. It's fun and you can create something really cool that you can be proud of.

2. Watch T.V. online. If T.V. is too bright, you can watch it online so you can adjust the brightness. Also, you can see previous eposiodes of T.V. you have missed.

3. Pull out a jokebook. You'll get some smiles.

4. Write a letter to a friend.

5. sleep!!

6. Learn basic greetings in different languages. And if you are really bored, the cuss words.

7. Prank call people in that sick voice of yours and pretend you know them.

8. Take an IQ test.

9. Write a song, poem, or even book.

10. Eat ice cream to soothe your throat.

11. Try to find postive things to a place that you never want to go to, like Siberia. Then, try to plan a trip to that place.

12. Make up lists about yourself.

13. Think of what you want to wear for the next week. And the week after that. And the week after that.

14. Make up an email address and then freak your friends out with this.

15. Draw. Do anything art related that you can handle.

Love,
Levi
