Day sixteen.

Today something crazy happend… I had got back from class and was just laying around, about to take a nap, I saw I had a  text message and I just assumed it was from Phil, or Maggie, but it was a number I didnt know. 

This kid who I’ve never met, never heard of, just out of the blue texts me about this; I can’t lie I was a little sketched out. But if it gets one person to do it, its so worth it. As corny as it sounds, it really is life changing. I lived in my own little bubble, and I never went outside my boundaries, even just talking to someone you normally wouldnt is huge. You learn so much about people.

Day fifteen.

Okay, so I will give you a brief about my day then I am going to go into a long ass rant :) Well for starters I went to bed at 6:30 this morning. I woke up around 1 ishhh. Felt like shit. Procrastinated so i then had to write a 5 page research paper all tonight. Finished that blah blah blah I dont care about my day I really want to get onto my rant. 

Stuart Chaifetz wired his ten year autistic son one Friday in February in hopes to see how his sons teachers were to his son. After that day Chaifetz had 6 hours of recordings. Some of the recordings. In some parts the teacher yells at his son Akian; In one part he even claims the teacher calls his son a bastard! I was outraged by this so I researched it heavily. I myslef listened to the recording. Chaifetz edited out many things, he said to preserve peoples identity. However I feel it is though to make his case stronger. I am pissed off because I now believe Stuart Chaifetz is taking this to far.  He has recordings of the teachers and teachrs aid talking about personal things about their husbands. I do agree with Chaifetz that they should leave there personal conversations outside the classroom. It is unprofessional. But for Chaifetz to post this on the internet for everyone to see is cowardly. Especially because when he turned the recordings in to the school in February a teacher was fired. The part were Chaifetz claims his son is called a bastard, I listened to it twenty times, and it is so muffled you cant hear anything in that particular part.  Chaifetz believes even though the other teacher did nothing wrong she should to be fired for not sticking up for his son. That is why he is claiming to post his video up so she can “come forward and apologize” This guy is a complete asshole. Last night the story was fairly new, so when I googled his name it was easy to find stuff on him other than this new publicity. I found forums dating back to 2008 were people in this town arre just talking about how nuts this guy is. One even calling him Screwy Stuey. This guy has ran for congress, school boards, mayor, several times and lost all. I even found a myspace that states “Animal Activist first, father to autistic son second”? Really Animals are coming before your son? I even found CRIMINAL RECORDS from him protesting about animals, hes been to jail over this. I believe Start Chaifetz is trying to pull a publicity stunt. Yes what happened to his son was uncalled for, but it was taken care of. Why two months later are you posting a youtube video and sending it in to news channels? All for publicity. What makes me mad is In his first youtube video he only uses the teachers first tame Kelly and Jody ( i believe thats their name) He even states he willl NOT mention there last name and just allow them to come forward. Less than 24 hours after that video was posted, he posted another one stating the FULL name of the teachers. When people see a headline such as 10 year old autism kid bullied by teachers, they are going to be outraged, little do they know for one, its not as bad as hes trying to make it out to be, and two, measures have already been taken.  Media is so twisted its disgusting that creeps like him get off to making themselves famous for their own benefit.

Day fourteen.

TWO WEEKS DOWN! BOOM SHAKAAA. hahahaha. So about two days ago I started my “Tight ass workout” which consists of 50 squats 30 walking lunges 20 jump squats 30 side lunges and 50 bridges. I am supposed to do this 3 times which would be a 30 minute work out. So like I said two days ago I did this only one time and by the end my legs were so weak and shaking. It’s two days later and my legs are so sore.  I get two squats done then quit hahaha. So unhealthy. Thankfully I was blessed with good genes so I’m not fat, but its always good to tone. But if toning is going to consist of cringing every time I get out of a chair or walk up stairs, I will be a fat kid. I’m currently on mission get Phil to come up and spend the weekend with me. Chances are slim considering hes done with school next week. But nonetheless, I am going to try ! And I am currently addicted to pinterest. And I went on twitter today just to educate my like 5 followers. Doubtful they even looked, but I was reading so many articles and just had to vent haha. Still haven’t been on facebook! No class tomorrow, so for the rest of the night orange soda, pinterest and maybe a little essay writing. :D

Day thirteen?

It is only seven and I am exhausted, and I didn’t do much of anything today. I think thats why. Once you get in a routine of being busy and then you do nothing, you get tired so much easier. Although with this random ass snow storm that closed the school until one, which cancelled pretty much everyone’s classes. I did dye my hair today, and spent most of the day reading. In fact,  I just got done taking a hot bath reading. Now Im going to do some homework in advance, and then probably go to bed early. Tomorrow Im waking up early to work out.

I lost track of the days…

My legs are like jello… I decided to work out for an hour. The pain is worth it. I actually prefer it. It makes me feel like I accomplished something. And its a friggen blizzard outside. Two days ago I was sun bathing outside now that green grass is covered in a blanket of white snow. I was planning on walking down to the library tomorrow to pick up my books, but I can pretty much guarantee that I am not going anywhere if there is snow on the ground. My ass is not falling down that hill just to get some books, it can wait.

Day eleven.

Want some honest truth? No matter how far you run from it you can never escape your past. It has been, and always will be there.  I simply do not give two fucks anymore. If I have a problem I’m going to address it with you constructively.  I’m not going to beat around the bush. If this makes people start thinking I’m a bitch, I’m over it. I’ve learned ignoring things just to avoid confrontation does nothing. People are injudicious.  It’s time to take some action and try to fix this incredibly uneducated self-centered generation I am growing up in.  My generation disgusts me. We have all failed. And the worst part is, the generation below us is even worse. Awesome.

And there is no day ten because I actually have a life and I seem to only be able to get on the computer for about ten minutes a day. Luckily tonight I have some time. But no picture. Oh weeeelll.

Day nine.

What a day.  Luckily I registered for all my classes with no problem. After that, it was time to wait to go home. Maggie last minute decided that she wanted to skip her Friday class and come home when my grandparents showed up. So today we spent the day re-living all of our childhood memories haha. It started by just sitting out front with my grandma; she did her crossword I read my book, and Marge did her work. After boiling in the sun we had this great idea to go crayfish hunting were I instead found a fish, and a few crayfish, but i was really pumped about the fish haha. Of course no visit at grandmas would be complete with out playing dominoes! And then we spotted chalk and made wonderful master pieces in her driveway. A loud, fun crazy day. Even though we found out some news none of us wanted to hear, and were asked to keep quiet about it, it was still a good day. Days like this make me so fortunate to still have my grandparents in my life. I have always been close to my grandmother, she is the funniest, light hearted, down to earth person I know. After the night and drama I had last night, I really needed today to ground me and bring me some peace. 

My beautiful grandmother with her crossword :)

Dominoes obvi…

Soaking up the sun 

Camo hats and nets ;)

These are just two of about the 15 we caught. And when one of them flipped over on its belly we found out it was pregnant, you could see about twenty eggs.. kinda gross actually.

My creepy fishy ;)

Chakkkkkk.

Day eight.

I had the worst night last night. All night I was tossing and turning; my legs were restless; I was too hot. My back hurt. I even resorted to taking  benadryl.  Even two hours after taking that I still couldnt sleep. The last time  I remember looking at the clock it was 5:45 am.  I wanted nothing to do with anyone today! However around dinner time I decided to actually get out of sweatpants and go down and eat. I wasnt very social. The only thing that somewhat brightened my day is that tomorrow after registration my grandma is coming to pick me up for the weekend :o) After dinner I became semi-productive. Read some of my book. And intensely cleaned my room.  After showering I packed ad here I now am writing about may day. Every day I become more and more frustrated with people. I see them starting and dwelling over pointless drama. Why? Whats the point? Time to grow up and walk into the real world. Instead of fighting, pick up a newspaper, read a book. Educate yourself. Realize your life is amazing compared to millions of other people, teens, children.  What about the 6,000 under aged girls being trafficked online for sex in New York alone? But no people would rather bitch about how Lacreesha gave her a dirty look in the hallway.  It’s so hard being positive when you are surrounded by ignorant people. 

My bags are packed. On my way home @ 11 tomorrow :)
