help me get rid of it

I have a zit on my face. One ugly, disgusiting zit. I hope that it will disappear by tomorrow. Hopefully no one will notice it if it is still there. I hate when people tell you to put toothpaste on your zits. I tried it once, and it stung my face a lot, then left a little red blotch of burnt skin. That stuff might as well be lethal. I am really not trusting of all of those so called 'home remedies' that are supposed to work wonders. Most of the time that type of stuff doesn't work and ends up making the problem worse. So please, don't tell me about your mother's cure for a stuffy nose that involves tying a pine bough in an old sock and walking around a chair three times.

School was boring today. I do have one funny thing to say, though. When I was in calligraphy, I was working on my project quietly when I heard someone call my name. It was Pollyanna, the Portuguese girl. She called me to her table and told me that she had to ask me a question. So, I sat down, and then she said to me, "I want to know something. What is this word, it is called 'hot chick'?" I just started laughing, and then I feebly tried to explain it to her. I mean, how do you explain that type of expression? I asked her who said that, and she told me that her boyfriend said it to her. She thought that it meant a hot chicken, which led us both into another fit of giggles. That was my funny moment for the day.

This morning I had to buy candy from both Jackie and Kaitlin. I was just expressing my dislike of Kaitlin to my parents last night, and now I was being nice to her. They're selling it because they're taking this trip to Ireland during the summer, and they need money. I'm not giving either of them anymore, because I would probably like to go to Ireland more than they would. I could be saving the money I give to them to save up. I had to pay for my trip to Spain out of my own money. Kaitlin was acting all sugary this morning so she could suck up to me so I would buy candy. She probably talked about me behind my back once I did. Then she gave me back change in all quarters. Both of them were asking people to buy candy, even though they would never give them the time of day in the outside world. I hate when people do things like that. They only lower themselves off of their pedestal to talk to people when they want or need something.

I was so lonely today; everyone was treating me like trash. I think it's partly my own fault as well, because I can't seem to really like anyone or get along with anyone at my school right now. I hate how they're all so fake, two-faced people who will gossip about you and make fun of you behind their back. It's not even that I care, because that in itself doesn't really bother me. It's just their fakeness, and their pretending to be your friend. They think they're ready to win in this little game of life, but one day they'll realize that they're sadly mistaken. It's not even just one person; it's almost all of them. The only people I can trust are my true friends, but even then I'm not sure who they are. I'm the one who ends up with the schumck deal for trying to be nice to everyone. At least I have Kathleen. And Min. And Guillermo. I know that I will always have them, and that makes me happy.

Today I told Guillermo that he was my sheep, and he was to follow me wherever I told him to. It was quite funny. He even made sheep noises for me. I swear, I have a really warped sense of humor. I find the most stupid things hilarious, and they just make me happy. I don't know what's up with that. It's a good thing, though.

I hope tomorrow will be nice. I am going to sleep an extra twenty-five minutes.

Ciao!
