a.
The other day I had a message on my phone. This was very special event, as there are about three people in the whole world who ever ever call me. So I was very disappointed when it turned out to be Bob from Rent-a-Center calling for Melissa. (She won a grill!!) But, being the kind, generous, and desperate to feel useful person I am, I called Bob back to tell him that Melissa never got the message, for alas, I am not Melissa! In hindsiight that was stupid, but it's not like I was out having a life or anything. But ANYWAY, I don't think Bob got it, since I was pretty much just being a freak who calls people back when they have the wrong number. He didn't even say thank you. And then yesterday he called me again (this time I answered) and I told him that he had the wrong number. So now Bob will probably never call me again, which is good but kind of sad because that means no one will call me.
b. I got cute new clothes for Mexico! I'm going to be so pretty. All the Mexicans are going to be like, "Wow, and we thought Americans were STUPID!" And I'll be like, "Nope, we're cool" and they'll be like, "DUH, if they're anything like you!" Except they probably won't talk to me, since I know very little in Spanish, aside from Juanes lyrics and Seven Ways To Express Agreement.
c. I'm obsessed with Mexico now. It's sickening. I was watching Miss Universe (don't tell anyone) and I really wanted Mexico to win. Or Venezuela. Or Trinidad and Tobago. But Canada won, and I didn't like her much. She totally played the "I love Thai culture and can say Thank You in a bajillion languages" card. That's what I would have done. But I still don't like her.
d. Hanna gave me an adorable journal and I made it even more adorable. Maybe I'll write in it sometime. I probably should.
e. I just finished The Jungle because we have to read it for history and the paper is due when I'll be far, far away and definitely not having time to read. Aside from being extremely depressing, it's not that bad. Until the last fifty pages when it's like "the characters and story don't matter anymore, because we've found the story of every human being, SOCIALISM!!!!"
f. I miss school.
