Truth Box
For the most part, I have given up on finding out who wrote that message on my MySpace Truth Box. They can tell it to my face whenever they feel like it is the right time.
Anyways, I think I have finally decided to get my GED after long thoughts about it. I have fully weighted out the pros and cons. In my situation there are more pros and pretty much no down sides. GED’s are frowned upon by society because it seems like the easy and slightly lazy way out, though this is not the case for me. The only things that would count as a downfall is somewhat socially, though I am an extremely social person I will have to miss out on Senior Prom, parties and drama which is can certainly live without and personally I never liked those things in the first place. My friend thinks that one day I will look back and wish that I went to my Prom but personally, looking back on most dances now, I say to myself thank God it’s over and I can’t believe I lived though that. Not that I don’t like dancing at all, I personally don’t like the choice of music and I am absolutely disgusted of the extreme sexual behaviors though out the dance floor. Anyways, I will reach the same destination as everyone else, in the end. I find my perfect job and go through education just like every else. Will I be thrown into a University instantly? Probably not, but regardless I will end up at the same place and I can just work my way up with good grades to back me up.
My tutor came over today with some practice GED books and made me extremely confident that I can actually pass this, with flying colors! I will probably take the test at the end of the school year or something when I have my entire math covered and I feel that I have memorized everything like the back of my hand.
It feels so good to finally feel like I am falling into place. My lazy mind is waking up and starting to play with numbers like I used to. The thought that I can be good at math again is overwhelmingly amazing because I seriously gave up on myself quite a while ago. I also feel better that I am fully sticking in what I believe in. I no longer hesitate to speak my mind with my friends and such. It only gets better because it is almost summer.
I am talking to Alex a lot lately and he is really nice to talk to. I kind of like him but I don’t entirely understand his points of view on religion and whatnot. I am pretty sure he believes in Greek mythology and might have a possibly of doing witchcraft but it is too soon to call. Would reiki count as witchcraft? I don’t care about his religion or beliefs to much but he wants to date me if I ever break up with Jerry but it isn’t comforting dating someone who believes in ominous things.
On the lighter note, he invited me to go to insight prom with him. I am pretty excited to see all my friends from my old school.

Why did you switch schools ….. did you move? Did you just stop going to school and, thus, the GED? In either case, congrats on deciding to put forth the effort to get your GED!! What is an “insight prom” and will things be cool with Jerry if you go with Alex?
I think I might of missed a bit too! Are you doing the GED because you must work? or did you move and not like the new school? I know its hard sometimes to make a move and be on the same page. Do get that GED, its so important in the work force to have a high school education or GED and if you can get to college even better. I know right now it seems like a lot of fuss about nothing but trust me, you will need it for decent work!!!
As far as prom, its fun but many live without having gone! Be careful about who you date and what they believe, its just way to easy to get caught up in something that is not sound. Often times occult things make you think of new age or mystic. I know I am sounding like a Mother here (and I am) but I just want you to be careful!!!
Good job on the math. I too had trouble with math, but I got through college and nursing so with time even the worst things become possible!!!
