Slang becomes popular mostly due to the youth of America. When teenagers and kids come up with a saying or phrase, it spreads like wildfire. They are usually words that are supposed to phrase the same ideas. Like saying "Grody" for gross or saying that something is "Rank". These are kind of older phrases, but I really think YOLO is kind of stupid. I don't think I really use very many slang terms.

So today I went to telemetry for my hospital duties. I literally did nothing. No, I mean that. I sat in a chair and stared at a screen for two hours. TWO HOURS. Actually, I nodded off a few times, but going there was such a waste of my time. We looked at QRS complexes and whatnot, but it was the same stuff we look at in class anyways.

LAME. LAME. LAME. I can't deny that I was half hoping for a ventricular tachycardia or an agonal rhythm to spice up my time.

Facebook is going to become merged with the US Government, in that it will openly provide any personal information someone puts on there to the government. The people will be in outrage as their private lives become intruded, but ultimately do nothing about it. Then, once they are compliant, more of their rights will slowly and surely be removed from underneath their foolish little noses.

REPEAL THE PATRIOT ACT!~

My goal for today is to find my script for the show I'm in. I have nothing memorized and I can't find my script. I am in trouble. In other news, prom was pretty awesome. I had a good time. My dress and makeup were perfect. I loved them.

Sighhh, I miss prom.

Dear Rayne's armpit,

I know you are itchy and nasty, but it will be okay. Relief can come in many forms. You might try investing in some Dove deodorant or perhaps an anti-perspirant? There are some over-the-counter anti-perspirants that work exceedingly well. You might try Certain-Dri. It works great for keeping you from sweating in your pits for up to 72 hours after one nightly use. It can be pretty painful if you put too much on though. Be careful. Have caution.

I hope your itchy-ness gets better.

NBC5 did a very good job of covering the tornado. They provided many stats and figures about the length of time the tornado in Lancaster was on the ground (3o minutes), and the amount of damage. According to NBC5, 135 structures were damaged. Along the side of these numbers, they provided a human interest aspect via interviews with a church members that had their church destroyed, and a few regular civilian's tales of how they tried to hide. I did notice though that a few of the interviews were NOT RULE OF THIRDS.

It wasn't poorly put together overall.

My award would be the Endurance Award. It seems like I am always enduring some sort of trial or obstacle. Most of the time I just want curl up in a ball and lay in my bed all day, but some how I end up at school, getting crap done. Right now, I would describe myself as angry. I have been very angry with the world these past few days. Today is my dad's surgery, and on top of all of that I am going to be stuck at Collin Community College next year. It isn't right and it isn't fair. Anger is the word of my day. I have just been very angry at everyone and everything for: Existing, not understanding all the crap I have to do, existing, not letting me have five minutes alone, existing, not letting me have time to sleep, existing, and for EXISTING.

I want everyone to go away.
