Dear Journal,

OMG!!! Lisa’s house was awesome. Her dog is so playful and cute. We did so many things in 6 hours. First she introduced her family to me and then we played on her wii. After that we played with her dog for a bit and then we listened to music and we came up with a song. I’ll write it down in here.

They're gonna clean up your looks,
With all the lies on the books,
To make a citizen out of you.
Because they sleep with a gun,
And keep an eye on your son,
So they can watch all the things you do.
Because the drugs never work.
They're gonna give you a smirk.
'Cause they got methods,
Of keeping you clean.
They're gonna rip off your heads!
Your aspirations to shreds!
Another cog in the murder machine!
They said all teenagers scare the living shit out of me!
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed!
So darken your clothes,
Or strike a violent pose!
Maybe they'll leave you alone,
But not me!
The boys and girls in the clique,
The awful names that they stick.
You're never gonna fit in much kid.
But if you're troubled and hurt,
What you got under your shirt,
Will make them pay for the things that they did!
They said all teenagers scare the living shit out of me!
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed!
So darken your clothes,
Or strike a violent pose.
Maybe they'll leave you alone,
But not me!
Whoa yeah!
They said now teenagers scare the living shit out of me.
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed.
So darken your clothes,
Or strike a violent pose,
Maybe they'll leave you alone,
But not me.
All together now,
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me!
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed!
So darken your clothes,
Or strike a violent pose,
Maybe they'll leave you alone,
But not me!
Teenagers scare the living shit out of me!
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed!
So darken your clothes,
Or strike a violent pose,
Maybe they'll leave you alone,
But not me.

(Me: I don’t own this song. It belongs to My Chemical Romance.)

It’ seems pretty good to me. Well after all of that stuff we just hung out more and talked about our lives. I learned a lot more about her. She even told me more about the school and what all the teachers are like and how I should act around them. It’s pretty good advice. Now I know what to do and what not to in each of the classes. I learned that the math teacher likes us to do extra work and do the bonus questions. The English teacher likes to have everything in order and have everyone try their hardest. The art teacher like you to express you’re feelings in your artwork. The gym teacher wants us to try our hardest, and the music teacher wants us to be loud and proud. All the other teachers just want us to pay attention and work our hardest to get good grades. Well I guess I should go now, I have to finish up my homework and then I’m going to sleep. So see ya.

Sincerely,

Happy Downfall
