Needles Suck
Hated it.
They had clinics set up all week giving out free vaccinations, there was one today in my town. It started at ten o'clock but my mom decided to bring me and my brothers early because she heard that the lines could get extremely long.
We got there at like nine o'clock, and the line was loooooong. Some people had even been there since six! It was insane!
I only got my needle at like 4:30, or something like that. Most of the day was spent waiting in line and the rest of the day was spent waiting inside the church. It sucked.
So I got my needle, barely felt it. I ran across the room towards my brother and then I got really dizzy and fell. I almost passed out. First time that that's ever happened to me. It was weird.
Anyway that sucked, and now my knee hurts.

Just came to tell you I'm not dead
-There was supposed to be a strike at my school where the teachers would walk out and we would get a vacation. We've been hearing about it for weeks now and last week they finally set a date. The strike was supposed to start today. Instead, my Psych professor tells us yesterday morning that the strike is off. Boo, no vacation for me. At least it doesn't break the schedule, and we get a free breakfast on Tuesday because of it.
-My laptop is still not back. I am still pissed, but I am making due with my desktop and my external hard drive. As soon as I get my laptop back I will start restoring files and continue working on my vampire story (of which production was halted because I'd rather work directly from my laptop, because I suck like that), right now though I'm working on my Detective Conan episode watching. I vowed that I was gonna watch every single anime episode.
-I somehow got it into my head that it would be a good idea to download songs from movies I like to watch. So far it's going good, except when Limewire's being a bitch and doesn't want to work. I got a lot of new songs now, which is good.
-Eddie Izzard, ftw. I found a torrent with a lot of his routines. Quality entertainment.
-The 13 Detective Conan movie (The Raven Chaser) came out on the 17th. It took me all day to download it and I ended up staying up until almost 2AM watching it. But it was sooooo worth it. It was an epic movie. I only have one question: Where in the name of saggy pants did Gin get a machine-gun helicopter?! That's honestly the first time I've ever seen them with one. For an organization that works in secrecy, they're not being very secretive here. I'm pretty sure they're quite noticeable opening fire on Toutou Tower while the police and God only knows how many civilians. And they didn't even know who they were shooting at, the nuts.
-Apparently my school has a video game club. They have my attention. The first meeting is on Thursday. All I need to do now is find someone to drag along with me so I don't look like a total goober standing there by myself looking awkward.
-This actually came out a few weeks ago, but, our bishop (well he's really an ex-bishop now) is a pedophile. He was arrested on the charges of possessing child pornography. ...oh yes, religious people are fun. *insert eye roll here* This guy was at my confirmation! I think I may have actually mentioned that! I took a picture with him! Ew... I got rid of that picture, let me tell you. And he's being fined like 15 million dollars, or something. They said in the newspaper, or maybe it was the radio, that the parishioners are expected to help pay.
Uh, no.
The bishop is the one who committed a felony, not us. Let him pay the fine himself. Even my mother said that they won't be getting any money from us. I wholeheartedly agree. I have no problem donating money to a good cause. This is a lost cause. No dice, Pedopriest.

GRAR!
I am angry, as you can maybe tell. My laptop crashed. After a few months of routine freezing, the stupid thing just ups and quits. It would not start.
Dad took it to Future Shop where we found out that the hard drive was shot. We also found out that they can't get my stuff back.
Yeah.
So I lost everything, basically. I even lost stuff I've been saving up for years because one of my flashdrives went wonky and I moved all my stuff to my laptop to keep it from being deleted.
That didn't turn out so well.
All my stuff is on the hard drive, but no one can get to it. So it's basically gone now. Yipee.
All I have left is whatever I backed up in July the last time we had to send the stupid thing in.
I bought an external hard drive with the purpose of putting stuff on it, but I just never got around to it. I hate it when I do that.
So I lost my SIMS pictures, again, my finished picture/art things, all the picnik pictures I did, a bunch of stories, various organizing things, some videos, and various other things that I found important.
My parents don't care that I lost all this stuff because all they're concerned about is the schoolwork that I had on there. I don't care about the schoolwork. I was finished with most of it and the rest I could get back. Most of the other stuff was irreplaceable.
I am pissed, and I have no one to complain to.
