This is me in grade 9

"I guess I shouldn't tell them that I like Duran Duran"

That is a lyric from a song...I actually don't like Duran Duran, they are a little too new wave bullshitty for my tastes.

I am going to Hershey Park today with Laura, Katie and Nadia and I believe meeting Brandon there. I expect a good time as I haven't hit up a theme park in a very long time and I really need to be bounced around in a rollercoaster. I also just got paid today which finally relieves some of the financial pressure I have been under lately, with owing my parents money and having 4 dollars in my bank account. I am now a little more comfortable than before but still in need of a bit more cash to spend during the school year, all in good time I guess.

My parents are getting a new car today, a 2005 Jeep Liberty. I love those cars so much, the liberty is such a nice ride and absurdly reliable. Unlike the VW Bug of death, which breaks down about 3 times a week and is a total piece of shit that I hate to drive. The Liberty is apparently fully equipped and comes with leather seats, a first for the Keefe family. Hopefully now we can just trash the bug completely, which I would be happy to do with a sledgehammer and maybe some sulfuric acid.

I realize now that I need to get back into shape because I am planning to join the club soccer team at TCNJ due to my re-interest in soccer, one of the best games ever. I also need to get into shape for hockey in July and possibly dodgeball in the fall on top of soccer. Man, I never knew how much I missed sports.

I need to get the new Foo Fighters CD, it seriously looks like it rocks so fucking hard.

Download the song Grade 9 by The Barenaked Ladies, it is a scary look back at the peak of the akward years...the first year of high school. The lyrics hit close to home in a fricking hilarious way and they also throw in bits and pieces of rush songs and "Linus and Lucy." Personally, I think it is brilliant.

On a related note, man we have changed a lot in the past 5 years haven't we?
