Coney, that is sad. Dogs are so...precious aren't they? Even if they are the root of all evil!
Don't have any particular vent, just...dam the nuns!

Argh. I hate Wal-Mart. I went down there after school on Tuesday expecting to pick up the Extended Edition DVD. But do they have it? Nooo... of course not. Ugh. Maybe they'll have it by tomorrow or Friday. It's my only hope.

No, actually, he said they turned seven within the year, so they start at six.
We start at five, but it's not compulsory until you are six.

Oh right BoP. Tha makes more sense. And thinking about it now i wouldn't be in 8th grade i would be in 9th.
Neway my vent: today i was completely ready to punch my Tech teacher right in the face. Becos he took half an hour to explain a 5 minute thing. It was sooo boring and annoying. He just kept repeating everything. Plus the lesson was a whole waste of time and didn't move me on in my work at all.

He forgot kindergarten. I started when that when I was five, but turned six by the end of the year. Kindergarten is basically required.
I AM really short, so don't you fret! 5 foot even, to be exact. It's really not much fun, because it's hard to find clothes that fit. I can still fit into the children's section; I can hardly fit into a size 0.

I know exactly what you mean Starr Polish. I am really short for my age and used to get teased about it. I put a stop to that though and now there are other people smaller than me so i dont look odd.
I often hate being short but sometimes its good fun like when me and my friend go to the cinema. she's meant to pay adult cos she is 15 but she gets me to buy the tickets so she only has to pay the kids price!

Grr. I need to severely torture my ex who's being a real b*tch. I could go into detail of what I'd like to do to him, but it wouldn't help. I think I'll go write some on my story. See, I dumped my (ex)boyfriend last Friday. He took it really hard, and sent out an email to all my friends, telling them to try and get me to see reason, to go back to him. Didn't work, obviously; I broke up with him for a reason! When I have a reason, and a good one, I don't change my mind! Anyway. Now there's a KLT club (Kill Liz T******** club), formed by half my friends. The thing is, I managed to talk to all of the members of the KLT, who are now my friends again, and don't actually want to kill me. That'd be fine, except that my ex keeps sending copies of the emails I send him to all of them! And making scathing remarks...and it is really f***ing pissing me off! Must punch something....
