Chapter 4 from not my life

Arturo has been a friend to me since the 5th grade. well, it was untill recently when we became friends. Back then we were nothing more than aquaintences. I still remember the time when he threw a party and invited everyone in class exept for me and a few others. but its ok. the past is in the past. he doesnt remember and i still walk around predending i dont either. so, anyway Arturo has liked this girl whom is another one of my friends, Yoshimi. They have been talking a lot lately and Arturo has started to develope feelings for her. it was a bit obvious that Yoshimi had just wanted to remain friends but Arturo was blind to the signals. I sat with them and a few others when they were together and felt like the unessessary fifth wheel.
(Well thats not so bad. i sit next to couples eating the other's face off and your the only single one just trying to enjoy food...not face.)
So, then i started thinking. If Arturo and Yoshimi start going out, Michelle already has a boyfriend and so does Beatrise...I would be the only single person at the table for Collage Prep. I havnt had a boyfriend since eighth grade and that was a year and a bit ago. i need to get out more -___- i need to feel the thug life run through my veins. But, then again i have zero guts so that rules out being a pimp in the future for me.
Class came and went most of it was me listening to music and talking to Michele about BEK's (Black Eyed Kids). and i knew that Arturo was going to ask Yoshimi out. i was happy but had a serious intuition that she would say no. I stood about car's lenghth away from them to give them space but did have an ear posted on their conversation and this is how it went.
"Hey Yoshimi i wanted to tell you something" Said Arturo
"Yeah?"
"Well, i like you...a lot." He studdered a bit.
"Im sorry i just dont like you back" she said. She seemed a bit suprised that he would come up with that.
After the rejection Arturo just gave Yoshimi a chocolate rose he had boughten for her and walked away.
Yoshimi was a bit shaken up when i spoke to her after the rejection. "I hurt too many feelings" she said sadly. i couldnt help but feel bad for her, both of them. she didnt know the proposale was coming and he didnt see the rejection coming. both had hit them square in the face.
I had talked to Arturo later on my way walking home "Are you ok?" i asked
"Yeah im fine" he was strumming his ukalale nervously so i knew he was lying.
"Your prabably bummed out about it, huh?"
"Yeah really..."
"Can you cope?"
He didnt answer.
i was almost home so i said, "I hope you can still be friends with eachother." and we parted ways.
I sencerily hope Arturo has more luck in the future because i dont like seing any of my friends sad.
I also hope Yoshimi and him can still be friends. but then again there is always going to be that awkwardness whenever they would be together.

Chapter 3

Today i gave my first tour. it was for a green ambassadors position at my school. i showed too potential donors around environmental charter high school. to be honest i was extremely nervous. however, the guys from heal the bay i was presenting to were very relaxed and happy-go-lucky. i was relieved they were so nice. And i told them i even volunteered to clean up Lagoona Beach on a Heal the Bay Beach Clean Up.
That brings us to today's topic, pollution. As a student whom goes to an environmental school i do care about the environment and all that it has to offer but it seems as if other people are starting to care less and less. I see wrappers on the floor and plastic in the compost bin. A little fact about plastic is that it never biodegrades. so, while it brakes into tiny pieces it never leaves earth. Having people claim they care but then twenty minutes later throw a wrapper on the floor is terrible. Some people need to have a little consideration for the world. "There is no Planet B".
So i have a preposition. i propose that we all go out there and do one thing to help make the world beautiful. Even if its from cleaning up a beach to taking shorter showers to conserve water. just do something to help the world and tell others to do so as well. Be the change you want to see. It all starts with you. Hopefully you encourage others to do their part as well. And so the world can get more beautiful and more magnificent, one person at a time. Are you that person?

Chapter 2

As i finish speaking with one of my best friends Jenny i stop to think why. why do people ponder over their ex's when they claim to stop caring. i myself had shed a few tears over the lost of a boy but all you can do is get up and brush yourself off as you continue walking with your head held high.
She isn't still liking her ex but she was trying to help him. He had apparently started cutting himself because life was too hard.
i have cut myself before. only once. i was in a bad time as was everyone else who had cut. as i used the scissors to pierce my flesh i winced. the pain wasn't that bad but i had a voice in the back of my head saying, "If you cut yourself, your only going to give into your problems." after i cut myself i never did it again. the wound has healed and so had my bad experiences. if you cut or know someone who has cut all you can do is think. think "Is my problem really worth the scarring of my skin?" Because, scares don't heal, wearas problems fade. If your mad exercise it out. i run when I'm frustrated.
So, anyway my friend had been giving advice to this boy and he had just ignored her. if someone gives you advise the least you can do is listen. when someone gives you advise the most you can do is care. because that person cares about you and your future.
 I care...do you?

the first chapter

This is the beginning. this is the first chapter. the world of blogging is something I'm feeling a little nervous about to be honest. but i just need a place other than my head to spill my thoughts and life actions. as a sophomore student one would automatically thing the first thing i would talk about is boys, makeup, and shoes. and although those things interest me i have much more to say than what boy i think is cute. i hope you stick with me as i unravel my life in front of your eyes and you catch a glimpse of what kind of a person i am and who i want to be.
