Happy Half-Year Day!

As of today (Monday, July 2), we are halfway through 2007. No, it’s not an official holiday, but any excuse for a party, we say.

    Yay! I think. I rather like the year ‘2007,’ just for the name. I rather like years that are odd, and the one’s with 7’s in them. I don’t fancy ‘2008’ as much. Though 200 was nice, of cource.

    Hooray! ‘Tis halfway through the year, and I feel like February was last month. Weird.

    My mom spilled coffee on my computer. Grr. Lucky it wasn’t the keyboard.

    Coffee & computers = bad.

    I like 7/7/07. 7 is my lucky number. I will be sad after 2012, because then there will be no more days where all the numbers are the same, ex 1/1/01, 2/2/02, etc. I like it when that happens. It is so weird to think that I’ll be alive in 2050. That is like, the future. When we live in space. LOL. I am happy w/ 2007, considering I occasionally write 2006 still in the date.

    5- Heehee. Do you live in space?

    2012 is the end of the world as we know it. I think I might be sad, too.

    Okay, okay, I’ll stop with the prophecies. But I still think something weird will happen.

    (6) About 2012: a lot of people were expecting great and/or terrible things in 1999 and 2000, but they turned out to be ordinary years. I suspect 2012 will be the same.

    On the other hand, why is everyone so attached to the world as we know it? Are we sure that it’s nicer or more interesting than the world as we don’t know it?

    2008 will be a fun year, though. The Olympics, leap year, elections, etc. It’ll be fun on July seventh, 2077, too. The date will read: “7/7/77.” That’s luckier than Saturday will be. Who knows? We may have 77 months in a year then, and 77 days in a month. Then we can have 77/77/77. That would be fun to have 5929 days in a year.

    So, yeah, years halfway through. Well roughly, considering we have an odd number of days this year. Next year, however…

    I don’t think about the numbers of years, really.

    Once I bought this nice little calendar, with fill-in-the-dates so that it would work for whatever year you got it in, and I never used it. :( And now all the dates are messed up.

    Oh well.

    5- Whoohoo aphelion! I discovered the meaning of that word years back when I bought a New Age album with that title.

    7- Ah, yes, the end of the Mayan calendar. Well, the big one anyway. It will have completed its rotation. Which means [dun dun dun] it will begin a second! Audible gasp!

    28- Ah, 6/6/06, the day of the theology final exam at my old school. The crazy nun wandered into the exam room that day, grabbed this huge statue of… Mary, I think, and ran out. Without a word. And the statue was more than half her size. Funny times…

    Meh, anyway, the fact that the year is now more than half-over is mildly depressing. What have I actually done this year? Finished junior year. Uhm, that’s it. *feels unaccomplished*

    Reflections are always mildly depressing. However, this year was far better than 2006, for sure. So far. I dunno…

    Why don’t people want to be teenagers??? When I was 12, a lady came up to me and asked how old I was; I obviously said twelve. She kinda looked at me pityingly and said something like, “Only one more year till the terrible teens.” Sheesh! It’s not that bad.

    ooh! how about the time(the following will be sick and nasty) i had a bacon cheeseburger at wendys, and i got a case of the cramps when i got home. my brother did too, and he ate the same thing!also note that wendys takes pride on having fresh never frozen beef, and how long does non frozen beef last before it spoils? we called the manager of the restaurant, and she said it couldntve been food poisoning, because it takes 12 or more hours to set in. then my brother looked on a webdoctor site, and it said food poisoning could set in within the moment of ingestion or up to two weeks to take effect.

    sue or not to sue, that is the question?

    34- Old people. They don’t understand. ;)
    Teens have a bad reputation. You get hungry all the time, you don’t want to get up in the morning, and we always smart mouth our parents at really bad times. Adults are confused about how much responsibilty we should have, and then yell at us because we don’t either. And then we yell back. And then we get punished for the rest of our lives…

    You’ll never again be able to watch a kids show without somebody looking very concerned…
    Your parents will want to have embaressing conversations about Sally’s birthday party…
    Cops will keep an extra eye on you, like all teens are planning a bank robbery. One of my friend’s older brother told us how, when he was riding his skate board home from school, a two cops in a police car slowed down and drove reeeeaaaalllly sllooooowwwllllllyyy right beside him while the other cop stuck his head out the window and stared at him. For twenty three blocks.
    Homework doubles triples.
    Babysitting becomes a neverending chore.
    You get bored a lot.
    AND… you’ll never again be able to ride those little rides at the fair.

    28 – Sadly, most people in Kentucky, Louisville in particular, were too preoccupied with the Derby to care about the date on 06/06/06.

    34 – I beg to differ on that; my thirteenth year was horrible. But that was mostly because of school, not my age.

    38 – So true!

    39 – You get to drive when you’re sixteen (or seventeen, if you live in my state….evil new rules!), but then you have to worry about driving tests, insurance, safe driving, etc., so maybe it’s not a good thing after all.

    46 – *waves*

    I can’t believe the year is already halfway over! And now summer is almost over too, agh! It’s all gone by too quickly!
