Musicals v.s Manga - Is It A Commitment?

Today was an Annie rehearsal (did I tell you about Annie? It's the school musical) and all my friends decided that Annie isn't actually a COMMITMENT. But it is. First of all, remember Anna? Well, before Annie had actually started, Anna had signed up with me, and we were gonna have a blast together. Then Anna decided she was too cool for musicals, so she didn't even bother auditioning. Then there's Jenna. Jenna has been with me in Annie for a long time, but recently, she decided she hardly wants to do it anymore. She said that she doesn't know whether or not to stay in it. Now, I think that the answer to that question is pretty obvious, but I'm just the weirdo music freak, so who listens to me? But really, what's her issue? Annie's great! What's the problem? Jenna never checks her schedgule anymore, so whenever I go up to her and say: "Hey! Where were you on monday? We had Annie!" she goes "There was a rehearsal on monday? I thought it was only on wednesdays!" That's happened twice now. And she's missed like three wednesday ones too, so that's not much of an excuse. And my other friend, Jacey, well she just joined, like last week, so she doesn't really understand. But she's missed like two rehearsals already, either because she had homework (you can read my post entitled Does It Even Matter? to read my thoughts on that) or because she has Anime Manga club. Jacey is absolutely crazy about Anime, don't even ask me why, 'cause I have no idea. What's so great about Anime? It's a bunch of cartooning with funny eyes. What, I ask, is so special about that? Anyway... so she said she couldn't come because of Anime club. I've said this before, I will say it again, get your priorities straight.

Does It Even Matter?

I'm just a bit peeved right now. This week, was a RECKONING week for my teacher (whatever that means) and I have like five things that I need to do or else I fail the whole sixth grade or something. After she told me everything I have to do, she called my mom while I was at my awesome acting class. So I come home and I'm completely drowned in homework, so I tell my mom that I need to stay home the next day to finish everything I had to do. So she says that my teacher called her and said that I was doing way to much. And in my head I'm kinda going No duh, but she meant it differently. She meant it as in while I'm doing two hours of homework every night, everyone else is doing fifteen friggin minutes. So I go well, that's 'cause I'm bad at math, but they naturally just assume that I'm talking double time in class. It's not completely true, but it's not completely a lie either. I talk a bit, but who doesn't? It's not like I'm not doing anything. I'm definitely doing more work than talking. So my mom says that my teacher wants a SCHEDGULE of when I'm gonna have my homework finished. So we look in my school agenda and I explain that each assignment I'm even almost finished or I didn't even know what it was or something. But the problem is that I have ACTUAL homework to do, so I can't do it at all. And what really peeves me off is that they do this to try to teach us something, but just because we didn't hand in the stupid assignment doesn't mean we didn't learn the thing. So what is even the point? And also, half the stuff we learn is all useless anyway. I mean really, at what point in the world, when I'm thirty years old, am I gonna have to write a comic strip to describe a book or whatever? When am I gonna go: Geez, I don't know this. Guess I'd better dig up my sixth grade homework. All mothers throw away the old work anyway, so what's even the point of doing it in the first place? It's a waste of paper, and they could just ASK us if we understand anyway, that's the entire point. Learning something. And if they're thinking, this will help you with your CAREER, I've got news for you. I am currently working on my career, simple as that. And it has nothing to do with the volume of a pentagon or whatever. WRITING shall be my career, so I don't even need to do this homework. I think they should get their priorities straight. Anyway, seeya!

Honesty Still a Virtue?

Yo all! I suppose I've told you already, but me and my friend Anna have a fort in the woods. Well, last week, we went back and realized all kinds of things. Like the fort actually has a part two and three. And we also noticed that it was positively covered in litter. It was DISGUSTING! So we promised that every week we'd come to visit our fort. And we called it FORT MEGANNA because we found it. Well today Anna was busy babysitting some neighbours. And she said we would go at 4:00. Well I minded my own buisness for a while. Then I looked at the clock and it was 10 after. So I invited Anna to come now. But some other kids wanted to come too, so we let them tag along. But they wouldn't leave us alone! So when we went to look at the fort again, they snuck up behind us and claimed that it was THEIR fort! I was so upset! Actually, it was only one of them and I finally told him what he was and what he deserved to hear: that he was an idiot. Then I just left them all standing there and stomped off. That's right. I have anger problems.
