"And what tone is that in?"

"Yeah yeah but it's a five o' clock world when the whistle blows
and no one owns a piece of my time -
and there's a five o' clock me inside my clothes
thinkin' that the world looks fine, yeah"

The staring is increasing. I dunno if it's because they're finally looking at us and not keeping their heads down but today I got sneered at and Gavin got giggled at. It's totally cuz I'm a gangster prostitute. They say that when you wear a tank top they think you're a prostitute and I totally have that big ass gang sign on my back hahaha. Love it. I'm trying to upload pictures but this blog thing isn't liking them and it's driving me nuts. I was totally shutting down like "Meredith catatonic" today due to not getting enough sleep lately but after a two hour nap I'm feeling fresher and awake. I love how they told us not to "break off into cliques" and that's exactly what's been happening. It's a little frustrating but it was bound to happen. I like our group though - it's not as cliquey because we try to be/or already are friends with alot of other kids (especially thanks to Gavin because everyone remembers him for the random and outlandish things that he says - like the ballsac salad dream) I get along with most everybody, that's of course because they haven't met my angry side and it's only a matter of time haha.

Last night we went out to celebrate some birthdays and had some serious fun at this little dance club. They were spraying water with super soakers and they had this teeny kiddy pool on the dance area that Randy's lovingly dunked me in. I'm always the wet one, I mean seriously? I don't really mind because it's a nice break from the constant sweating but still? During the cab ride home we were shouting all kinds of things, some correct, some not so correct. We passed these not too cheery guys in a truck and I managed to tell him that he had a mental problem unintentionally, I'm awesome.

We're finding new things to laugh at every day - whether it's Big Willie Style not know how to tell a story or a SENTENCE at all, or J.J's (James Jones) random hilarity, or the chinese guy on the corner who tells all the girls he loves them. We also ate spicy spicy noodles at this little Muslim place this afternoon. It was so good but the peppers.....ahhh mouth = fire. We also got to watch the noodle guy at his work which you should google because chinese noodle making is fun as well to watch, as it is to eat!

Must get ready for the mock lesson so have to shorten it up, plus must eat dinner. I think I'm going to put pictures on facebook because this thing won't take them so if you don't have facebook, ask someone who is one there (half our family is anyways) and they should be able to show you because it's complicated.

"ne ge ne ge shwa" It doesn't mean anything but it's our motto right now because Gavin said it and he knows NO chinese. lol peace.

.....annnnd back to the heat I go.
