It’s been 20 days since I last updated you guys on what’s been going on in my life. And has anything changed since? 

You better believe it.

• My grades have never been as bad as they are now and I am in an unbelievable amount of trouble. Can’t hang out with friends, no TV, no movies, have to study whenever I’m “not doing anything”, yadda yadda yadda. And since my grades aren’t particularly good, my counselor told me that if I don’t “straighten up my act” that I’ll end up in adult school as opposed to Grant next year. So there’s some motivation.
• Apparently, I’m depressed…. I don’t know. But since my parents can’t get me to talk about anything they’ve decided that I need to talk to a therapist. I don’t know when these sessions will start but I’m not too excited. I know that therapy isn’t just for psychopaths but it definitely won’t make me feel… normal.
• Though my parents did ground me, they did say that since I already paid for half of my ticket that I’m still allowed to go the Roger Waters concert this May! WOOOO!
• I turned 17 years old on the 17th, and to celebrate I went to watch The Secret World of Arriety. It was beautifully tragic, but beautiful no less. BUT I’M 17 NOW! I can watch rated R movies (legally) now! And I can buy games that are rated M (legally)! Ooooh, the perks of being a year older.
• Not too important but I counted all of the people that have seen my penis and the final number is: 8. How about that?
• I’ve read The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris, The Curious Incident of the Upside Down Dog in the Night Time by Mark Haddon, and The Gum Thief by Douglas Coupland and I now have On the Road by Jack Kerouac, The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris, and Generation X by Douglas Coupland. 
• And lastly, my sister has been begging my parents for permission to adopt a dog for the past two years and they finally said yes. Unfortunately, my sister won’t make up her mind. First she wants a Golden Retriever, then she wants a Beagle, she says we’ll get it on Saturday then Saturday passes and we still don’t have a dog… Last time I checked, she’s planning on adopting a German Shepherd pup from an animal shelter really near us. But it’s taken her a week to make up her mind and that’s enough time for me to lose interest. But if I do come home from school one of these days and find a dog in my room, I will post as many pictures as I can of the dog on Tumblr. 

Geez, February has been one hell of a month. I can only imagine what the rest of this fucking year will be like.
