Just got done counting that change, and its $40.01, which is awesome, and im gonna try to scrounge up some more later. Ms. Mason said those coinstar machines take .07 cents per dollar, which would be around 2.75 for all my change, which isnt that bad. Not doin much right now, just chillin out around the house, but im bout to go outside cuz its getting boring in here. No clue what im doin tonight, might be goin to the movie or somewhere, or i might just be lazying it up at mi casa. Oh, and im mos def gonna change my icon soon. It was a good idea at the time, but it gets grosser and grosser every time i look at it haha. School was fairly good today, i got a 105 on my geometry quiz, but besides that i dont remember anything that stood out. Anyways, im out.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention my trip to NY. It was a pretty cool place to visit, but I most def wouldnt ever live there. Its all crowded and dirty and noisy, and the people are mean. We visited the Hershey factory in Pennsylvania too, which was neat-o. And we ate with some Amish people, oh those crazy Amish people. I was surprised to learn that they drop out in 8th grade and work on a farm the rest of there lives. To me, that would be sorta not fun at all. But hey, I guess thats why im not Amish. We went to a Yankees game, but when we got there after an hour subway ride it was sold out except for 50 dollar tickets. Yeah right. We also went to Astroland on Coney Island, which has one of the first roller coasters built. Sure, it's been fixed up and stuff, but that thing was still rickety as anything. And besides our group, the place was PACKED with Orthodox Jewish people (the ones that wear the long black coats, and the top hats with all their hair shaved off except for reeealy long sideburns that are in curls) so it was a little awkward. Riding around on the bus got sorta boring too, because we did a lot of it. Oh yeah, we visited Princeton and Rutgers and the Naval Academy too. If you get accepted into the Naval Academy (reeealy hard to do) you get a brand new computer and stuff. But you have zero social life at all (your only free time is from like 8 until 10 or 11, which you have to spend studying) and then after that you have to spend 5 years in the military. So overall the trip was fun, but it probably would have been a lot better if i hadnt been dumped the day before, but its all good. And stormy (our kitten that a stray mom abandoned and we raised her on a bottle) has taken to staying in my room at all times. This is because my little brother got a mouse, so she stalks the cage 24/7 and will randomly pounce on the cage. And she isnt really a kitten, she's almost a year old, but she is still small cuz i think she is a runt. But anyways, adios until i remember somethin that i forgot.

Its been a long while since i updated, sorry about that, I sorta forgot. I changed my icon, and for the people that cant tell its banana pancakes. Score. I haven't been up to that much lately, but I am gonna start workin for my mom just to try to save up some money (no clue for what, i'll know when i see it haha). Speaking of money, i looked through about half my room and rounded up all the change, and there is a substantially large amount of it. I'd say around 40 bucks, but it may be more. And sorry I couldnt come last night, I was running errands with my mom and then Evan called and i remembered I was supposed to come so i was all like OH CWAP. But i'll most def. come next wednesday. And as ev already said, there was this huge arguement in first period. It was some crazy stuff.

A big heyyy to Carolyn, Josie, Julia, Leslie, and Steph, don't really know ya'll except from what i hear from Evan, which is quite a lot at times, especially for a certain individual, but its all good haha. Just got home, and i need to do my project for Great Expectations =((( I'm probably just gonna go on the boat and do it later tonight, because its sorta nice weather outside and it hasnt been like that much lately. Anyways, about me because someone might be wondering, or maybe they aren't. As Evan said, I am John Faulkner Mansure, Jr. a.k.a. Jack. I live on Saluda Lake out in Easley, and go to school in greenville because thats where my friends go. As for what I look like : http://img11.exs.cx/img11/8647/picture425pa.jpg and http://img67.exs.cx/img67/994/picture185sr.jpg. My smile in the first picture looks a little bit quirky, like ive lost my marbles or im about to kill someone. Speaking of me killing someone, i found this freeeaky picture of me i took when i was bored at around 2 in the morning. http://img18.exs.cx/img18/4047/picture229yj.jpg. To me it looks freaky at least, maybe its the whole darkness thingy. Oh, and WWWWWOOOOOHOOO for evan, who also got a 100 on the quiz. I'll probably update later, because i think im forgetting something i was going to say, and if you've got any questions then go for it, and i'll answer em the best i can.
current mood:  productive
current music: Baby Got Book is playin in the background (pretty catchy)

Just got out of the shower, and noticed that the spiffy color scheme I have is remarkably similar to Evan's. Oh well. Anyways, today was pretty good, if you ignore the whole ITBS testing thing. Ms. Mason got sorta mad at "the boys on the side" for going and playing on the computer DURING ITBS TESTING. Not a good idea, and she was in sorta a bad mood the rest of the day. Good news is that Ned, Clark and I all got a 100 on that geometry quiz, which is pretty good because I probably needed it. And then sixth period Mrs. Roberts sent Bill to Mrs. Kuhn's class, haha. I think i'm rambling on, but that tends to happen a lot. Oh, and someone had already shown Evan that Baby Got Book things, but it's still hilarious haha. Oooh, I've still gotta do my symbolism stuff for Great Expectations, definately not fun. It doesnt help that my symbol is "light", which is in the book about 5 times every chapter =/. Aaaanyways, I think im gonna find a picture of me and upload it as my avatar/picture thingy. And then i'll probably tell about myself for all the people that don't know me but know Evan, which would be a lot.

I've deciced to actually start using this thing, with the help of a small bit of persuasion by a certain Evan Robert Goodwin. It probably doesnt look to great right now.. but i'll change it when I get un-lazy, a.k.a. never. Or right now because its looking sorta ugly. Anyways, i'll detail my day once i get this thing fixed-up.
current mood:  blah
