I have an idea that may work, and it may not. I've been trying to think of ways to kind of do something big for a cause, something that will generate a lot of money for a good and just program. I think I may have finally thought of something.......it may sound stupid but hey, it could work. A charity hockey game. I have been noticing that the second most regularly attended sport at North is after school intermural floor hockey........second to football. The stands in the girls gym are always packed to the brim and people even stand out in the doorways and watch the game from there. I think if we moved to the boys gym for this one game, we could generate a lot of people. Here's what I think would raise a pretty good amount of money, the team the faculty (which is made up of well, the faculty) and maybe the best of the junior/senior class or something like that. Students vs. Teachers is always worth watching, people could get into this thing. The money made from ticket sales could go to The American Cancer Society or some fund like that, and it would be a pretty good time. There is one problem. I have no idea how to go about this. I don't know who to talk to, who to see, how to plan. I think this could be a damn good thing if it works, and I'm hoping I can get it off the ground. If you know anybody who could possibly help me out in this, tell me. Hell, if you want to help me get this off the ground then by all means I need all the help I can get. Unfortunately, everybody knows someone who has cancer or who has had cancer..........I just want to help anyway I can, no matter how small it may be. I don't know, maybe it is a stupid idea.........but i might just try it.

Don't sweat the small stuff.........now that is not true in my opinion. It's the small things that make all the difference in life, sure major events get more attention and are remembered longer......but the small stuff is maybe more important than the big stuff. Something like holding the door for someone, lending someone a buck, just simply saying hi to someone hell......just acknowledging existance. I have noticed that the people who do these small things are the absolute friendliest and genuine people. I see people who would be considered nice.....but only act nice to get ahead for there own personal gains or to impress someone. It doesn't work like that. I saw a group of young ladies today in my lunch who I thought were pretty nice people, wear a little too much makeup and take themselves way to seriously, but I got nothing against them. Well these girls were getting some drinks and opened up the cooler for some guy I guess they wanted to impress or something, so they opened it for him. When he was done some other girl was already reaching in and grabbing a drink......and they closed it on her. She had her hand in, they could clearly see that she was still looking around and they just slammed the freezer door on her......they didn't even grab it when it fell after the girl yelped. They just turned around and began to talk again, giggling and reaching for makeup. I don't know why, but that made me so angry. It's the little things people, I notice these things. I can really tell someones character by how they act around everyone......just not one or two people. The meanest people can be nice to a few people, and get away with it. That pisses me off so much, you wouldn't even believe it. I now realize people are blinded very easily in life, they just can't see how people actually are. It's hard to get out there each day though, be yourself and see people who are completely fake,mean, and assholes get ahead of you each and every time. It takes a lot to be yourself in a world where it would be easier to just be someone else. You can't be someone else though, you can just be you, if you can accept that others will too......eventually. You will find who your real friends are damn fast when you dump all your notions of being cool, trying to fit in, and being someone else. Face it folks, you are stuck with you for a pretty long time so you better get comfortable and used to the way you are........because while you may change the big stuff, you'll never be able to dump the small stuff. It's the small stuff that really matters and what makes you what you are. Never try to forget that, or you'll end up a very lonely and sad person.

You know what, I am completely clueless as what to write about. I always just kind of get to the blank screen and something will hit me, and I'll just write what's on my mind. This time though, it didn't happen.....odd. I hate writers block. You know, you have so many things on your mind at one time that sometimes it's hard to weed all the crap out and get to the heart of the matter. Like some songs I hear, just a bunch of catchy cliches and rhymes.......but will anyone remember these songs in 20 years? Probably not. Things have to have some substance to truly make a difference in the world. I mean, hey I like really stupid comdy movies and stuff with no substance......but you can't just be subjected to these things all your life. You need something that can completely turn your perception upside down, or make you feel something. I say, if a song doesn't make you feel anything than the band has failed.....because you have to feel something to actually get something out of it. I'll say it once and I'll say it again.....emotion is a tricky damn thing. You can be shown something that is supposed to be sad in a movie, like the main character dying or a touching reunion and it will have no effect on you......but something insignificant like simple conversation can truly make you feel something. Music may be the most poignant way to get any emotion across, no matter what kind of music you listen to. Music shapes our lives as we know it. Don't believe me? When you are in the car first thing you do, turn on the car....radio turns on. You see a movie, music is playing during the scenes. You are at a party....music is playing. You are sad,happy,amused,bored......you listen to music. You cannot even begin to imagine the effect music has on people. It can literally change a person completely. The best music though just get's right to the heart of the matter. Pure emotion that can be passed on to anyone who listens, that is fuckin amazing. Hey, guess I did have something to write about after all. I'm out.
