So, as I mentioned earlier, my bird got out of her cage while my dad was cleaning it. This was ridiculously unexpected because this bird is a really quiet and calm bird that has never even gone out when we'd have times for the birds to fly around in a enclosed area. Our other two, on the other hand would always be troublemakers and try to get away. But, not this one...I wonder though. She's the oldest now, she'll be four next March, which is pretty old for a parakeet.

I originally had four parakeets; two died at three and one made it to four. I really hope her death being soon isn't what's making her so flustered though. My other three were edgy before dying though, so my guess is a logical one. *shoots her mind* Think happy things, dangit! Oh, she's still refusing to get back, by the way. Every time my dad or I even start to move to her, she flies around and makes reaching her impossible. We're hoping she'll be calmer in the morning and that we'll be able to catch her then.

In other notes, I'm sorta miffed at my English class. We have to write about a childhood memory for a descriptive paper, and it has it be at least two pages long. That is not the problem. My problem is how Ms. Hall has us do peer editing of our papers, meaning everyone else would read what I write. I don't like that idea, since I do not trust anyone in that class as a friend. So, why should I share personal memories with someone I don't trust? Hn.

I'm trying to pick a really normal memory that I won't care too much about, but it's hard. I can't write two pages on most of the mundane occurrences that take place in my life. I'll probably end up modifying some incident that really happened, so it's less personal. Even then, I hate having to do that, when I should be allowed to have the choice of letting others read my paper or not.

Finally, although as I type this, the day changes to the 12th, 9-11 was today. Something I'm tired of seeing students mock and act as though it didn't affect them. The naivete of my class shocks me. They have been exposed to the outside world for around eleven years* more than I, yet their views are so childish. How can someone look at the events that took place on this day and laugh? How can they do such a thing? How can they laugh at an event that hurt so many?

*For those who don't know, I led a very sheltered life due to being homeschooled until eighth grade.

I'll never forget my own setting on that day. It was a Tuesday, but I was still in homeschool, and could start whenever I wanted. I was woken up around 10:30 by my mom yelling something about a plane crash. I rolled over and ignored her at first, thinking it was a bad dream or my hearing was deceiving me. Then I heard her yell that the Pentagon was hit. That woke me up and made me prance down the stairs to the TV. After all, my dad was supposed to be at a meeting there that day in the exact wing the plane hit, nonetheless.

My mom and I just watched the TV in silence for a while, until the phone rang. It was my dad who hadn't been able to get out of Chicago, and was renting a car to get back to Davenport. It was such a relief to hear that, as I'd been afraid he'd been killed in the plane crash. Until and after he got home, we just watched the TV, watched the same terrifying news over and over. There was nothing new. There would have been no change if we'd went to read or something, but we couldn't draw ourselves from it. I can't even describe how I felt.

And, now. Teenagers forget this day. Those who remember mock it and poke fun at those who honour it. These "older" people, these "experienced in the ways of the world" people, act worse than children. Even children understand that such a thing is terrible, that it should not be laughed at. What is it, do some people lose brain cells as they grow up? Or do they just think they're acting cool? Whatever their reason, I'll never understand.

My father lost a number of friends in the Pentagon, and my second cousin lost a chance for a job in the government because of the attack. My aunt and uncle in New York were not near the Center, thankfully. And, I don't know anyone else that died. However, I have plenty of friends who do, and of course, we were all affected in some way or another. I'll probably remember this day clearly until I die.


...from a friend's LJ...

A woman at a nightclub on Saturday night 05/03/05 was taken by 5 men, who according to hospital and police reports, gang raped her before dumping her. Unable to remember the events of the evening, tests later confirmed the repeat rapes and along with traces of Rohypnol in her blood, was Progesterex, which is essentially a small sterilization pill.

The drug is now being used by rapists at parties to rape AND sterilize their victims. Progesterex is available to vets to sterilize large animals. Rumor has it that Progesterex is being used together with Rohypnol, the date rape drug.

As with Rohypnol, all they have to do is drop it into the girl's drink. The girl can't remember a thing the next morning, of all that had taken place the night before. Progesterex, which dissolves in drinks just as easily, is such that the victim doesn't conceive from the rape and the rapist needn't worry about having a paternity test identifying him months later.

The drug's effects ARE NOT TEMPORARY- They are PERMANENT! Progesterex was designed to sterilize horses. Any female who takes it WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO CONCEIVE.

The dickheads can get this drug from anyone who is in the vet school or any university. It's that easy, and Progesterex is about to break out big everywhere. Believe it or not, there are even sites on the Internet telling people how to use it.

Please COPY (NOT FORWARD) this to everyone you know, especially girls. Be careful when you're out and don't leave your drink unattended. Please make the effort to PASS this on to all you know...

Guys,
please inform all your female friends and relatives.
PLEASE REPOST THIS!!!

Sometimes, it's nice to hear from someone you've been missing...

So now that I'm free of the SRO-stress, I've been working on a board of my own. Hosted on EzBoard because I don't like/don't understand other board hosting programs. But I don't care, it seems a lot more peaceful without all the extra features anyway...
