The things I ponder.
A while back, about in the eighth grade, I got out of my car to go to school carrying a fact that my mother had recently told me--a little bit of history about my heritage. My great grandmother studied our ties to history, to put it short, and she discovered that we are descendents of former president Ulysses S. Grant.
I thought that was pretty friggin' sweet, and still do, as a matter of fact, but find this thought quite funny: Grant was one of the suckiest president, but an AWESOME general. The sucky part about his presidency? He was an alcoholic. He had an addiction.
My mother, as many people have told her and she has admitted herself, is a control freak. She is addicted to control.
My uncle is an alcoholic (sober, thank goodness).
One relative I have is/was a crack addict.
My grandmother and grandfather WERE addicted to a lot of drugs and alcohol.
My brother is physically addicted to medication, while mentally addicted to money and material objects.
Do you see where I'm getting? Addiction runs in the family, and it has since the Civil War, obviously. Good thing my addiction is something that won't hurt me. Physically.
Another thing I've been pondering. In Final Fantasy VII, when you play as Cloud on the field, his outfit is a definite PURPLE color, but it is supposed to be dark blue like when he's fighting. Don't ask me why RPGs make these weird transformations from field-battle-cutscenes (Ramus in Lunar Silver Story has blue hair when on the field when it's brown in the cutscenes 0.o) but I noticed something. When he dresses as a girl, his dress is purple, two. All the fanart I see of Cloud in a dress his dress is PURPLE. All the fanart I see of him in his regular outfit is DARK BLUE. So, if they remade the game, would his dress be DARK BLUE or PURPLE? =O
And then tomorrow I have a test in Civics. We did a Study Guide today and my mind is just...ADDICTED.
c 41, the study of the rights and duties of citizens
i 42. a course of government action to achieve community goals
d 43. a government controlled by one person
What do the letters spell...? =O
And there there was Thomas PAINE. Paine...from X-2. Heh.
And then, at the end of the day, I practice writing Cloud in Japanese on the back of a card Sqwirl sent me when I was rehabbing or...whatsit called. And found the illustration on the back quite humorous for some reason. Reminded me of...crazy...obsessed-ness...
Yeah, PhotoBoth is being an ARSE right now, so I'll just explain. It was a simply drawn cannister of pills with little dot eyes and a big happy face on it. I'm sure the artist didn't intend for the kind of message I get, but that's the whole funny-ness of it.
And yes, my day? I got to buddy up with this kid in Theater. He has a Gaia account! =D But he obviously hasn't found me =[
Today I was walking home today and a black truck drove by with a kid yelling at my brother and I, "GET IN THE CAR!" Kinda scared me...and then the truck stopped and I saw my aunt and Cake inside. My aunt said, "I have candy," and Cake said, "Don't ask any questions, just get in." So I did. I believed the candy part, and I got a Rice Crispy Treat with the same sprinkles used on Cloud's birthday cake =D I actually...thought it was Cloud's birthday cake brought from the dead 0.o;
Yeah. We're a strange family, we are.
