Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

sadly, my dream of becoming a vegetarian didn't work out so well, since I accidentally ate a chicken enchilada yesterday and I made my own lasagna today (which raped everything in sight!) which had meat in it...oops. But seriously I am gonna try to cut down on meat even if I don't eliminate it completely from my diet.

I went shopping today, got a bunch of stuff from Wal-Mart to make my lasagna and for a bunch of camping supplies, and I went to Petcetera to pick up some more birdie things (yay, she'll be mine in a week). I also drove Sab home (which I sucked at cus I was nervous), then drove to pick up my brother at work (kicked a** on it!), and then drove back home in the dark (not so good at, since my brother was in the car and it was really dark out.) anyways I’m really good at driving when there's only one other person in the car but when there's more then one I get nervous and start to make stupid mistakes. But I drove perfectly to pick up my brother at work, and my mom only freaked out once! I was lane changing and I was half way in the other lane when my mom starts screaming at me that I don't have my blinkers on (which I did) scared the living holy spirit out of me. She apologized after because she said she thought I didn't have them on because she couldn't hear them over the radio. Duh. Anyways she's gotten a lot better, considering she shattered my confidence in the first place. I used to be so good at driving (better then I am now), and was so confident. My dad is a great passenger but my mom...lord have mercy on the homeless because she could scare the heck outta anyone. Every time I drive with her she either claims we're going to get hit and die, or screams (literally) when nothing is even happening. Like this one time I was driving down the road and all of a sudden, out of no were, she starts screaming hysterically. I of course start panicking and shaking like its -89 outside and then I can't drive the rest of the way because I think that I’m going to get everyone killed. It sucks because I was so good before and now it's like I’m a 6 year old kid trying to learn to ride a bike. *sigh*.

annnnnnyways, we're leaving to go camping on Tuesday. it's gonna rock! I bought snorkeling gear tonight *squeals in sheer childish joy* I can't wait; it's going to be the best time ever! Oh, and when I come back my birthday will only be a few days away! And then I’ll be 18 and will finally be able to get a tattoo. I’m only gonna get a small one at first because of the way my body scars…obviously I don’t want a huge black blob of scar tissue anywhere. Anyways I’m planning on getting a Chinese symbol, but I’m still not sure where yet. Probably some where on my foot (ankle), or on the back of my neck. That way I can hide it if it scars, and it won’t be visible at work or whatever…Don’t want to get eliminated for a job because I’ve got a tattoo somewhere right.
