I knew my cold was going away last night because I didnt really feel that bad anymore, besides a really dry, itchy throat. I'm glad I'm fine again, having a cold only makes you appreciate your own well-being more. Maybe tommorow I'll actually go running? (You see, for the last month plague after plague has prevented me from excercising and I feel like a pig right now). Anyhow, I know how you are all tired of hearing about how sick and miserable I am (or am not =D), so lets put it this way: my well-being today made up for every moment of sickness I suffered in the last week. Today was great, today was excellent. It's been one of those really random days where God seems to look down upon me and say "remember how miserable you were yesterday? I'm going to make up for it now."

A very interesting part of the day occured during my AP Government class, in which we are doing a US Senate simulation. What makes it really interesting is that people are basically fighting to get bills passed because their overall grades depend on it, and alot of the time people clash over the bills and therefore over their own grades. Of course, in any normal school this simulation wouldnt be too fun, but at Troy, where grades pretty much have a monetary equivalence of 1pt~1dollar (I'm not kidding), there is some serious wars going on in my classroom. I was having alot of fun just sitting back and watching people get totally pissed at each other. Honestly, I can never see why something so stupid and simple as a grade is worth such trouble, but it's certainly interesting to watch other people duke it out. It's like a real-life psychology lesson.

I was reading through the newspapers today and found an article that made me really smile. It was about how a bunch of hollywood superstars and rock bands and all kinds of other celebrities had put tons of money and work into getting Kerry re-elected and had basically failed. I cant really say why this makes me happy, but lets just say that even if I hated Bush, I'd still like to see him in office just to see the saddened faces of the damned celebrity communist bastards. Of course, I like Bush, and so do 52 million other Americans, get over it. Not like he's really going to/can do anything really evil anyways. Maybe just screw around with Social Security, but we dont have to worry about that for another half-century.

Of course, if it's politics, I really dont care. I just dont want to see taxes go up, and I dont want a draft. I care about what's going on in my life. And the goings-on are fabulous. seeya.
