Every year students anticipate the fifty-cent M&M fundraiser most clubs participate in. One dollar used to get you two packages of this snack. This year though prices have gone up. Now one dollar will get you only one pack of M&M’s.
The prices rose unexpectedly. Teachers hoping that the raise in price would bring larger sizes were also distressed. The M&M’s are still the same size package just fifty cents more.
This did not affect the amount of money raised though. If students order a box of M&M’s to sell and they don’t sell all 36 packages then they must fork up the 36 dollars themselves.
Senior Rebecca Garces, NAHS president, said that NAHS ordered 20 boxes and will make about $360. Last year they would have had to order 40 boxes to make that amount of money.
The only problem with the raised price was the ability to sell these treats. Garces said that it was harder for the students to sell because people were distraught over the .50-cent raise in price.
Overall this year, though, most students got over the initial distress of the price raise and still bought the M&M’s.

I'm going to say something now and i've never been more serious.
as of right now. this exact moment, i'm establishing boundaries. I'm a christian guy who has very stern beliefs. i strongly believe that i can't have someone close to me who stands for things i don't. as of right now that is really no one in my life. but if any of you and i mean any of you start to falter i'm sorry but our relationship can't be as close. and it's not because i'm a jerk and i think i'm holier than thou. i will still love and respect you but i can't let you be as big of an influence as i have let people be. at one point in my life i was addicted to many stupid things and i still battle with this crap and i will not subject myself to it any longer. not matter how strong i think i am.

i really don't like people that make music about other things. music is about music. you shouldn't dress a certain way so that people assume you like a certain band and want to hang out with you.
it's lame
and.. i haven't gotten a call or heard from you since saturday. and not even saturday really. so you want to holla at me so i'm not freaking out over here.

what i hate most in this world is people who make every situation some serious, anal thing. and all they do is watch the news, and read the paper, and look at cnn.com so that they can make you feel inferior with thier opinions on pat roberts or george bush. those people can suck it.
now, my day was awesome. i went to las palmas for lunch with ryan and sam. i went to robert grants house after school and then we skated. we both went to pleasant valley and robert hurt his knee and hand. i went home. went back out 20 minutes later with george. went to youthgroup. sat outside on a bench and played acoustic guitar for about an hour. then went to yourhouse diner after youthgroup.
ps. i miss you.

today was a grand day. i went off with EFFING JENNA for lunch and we went to mcdonalds. i was late for class so i just told my teacher that jennas car stalled at an intersection and we had to push it through and she bought it. haha. and then when me and robert left school we listened to memphis will be laid to waste and held up trafic so stefanie could hear the "NOW YOU'RE DOING THE WALTZ WITH YOUR MURDERER" part.
ps. aaron, sorry you didn't go off with us today.

best day ever. i just had it.
i didn't have to wait for the bus. it came right to me when i walked out the front door.
first and second period. i passed both of the quizs i was frontin on. third period i just walked around. went down to the library. played solitaire. interviewed some jewish cats for my gaza strip article. fourth period i got out of doing that gay beach pastel drawing thing and i'm getting to do a picture of my sister. then me and robert got out of the parking lot real fast today. got home like ten minutes after school started. then my mom wanted to take me to goodwill and i got some rad brown courderoy pants and accidentally got some girls jeans ( i thought they were going to be real baggy but i didn't actually look at them, i just looked at the size) that are really tight. i'll probably never wear them since i gave up on that lame girls jeans thing. THEN we rented my current favorite movie, kung fu hustle. it's like an old mobster movie mixed with crouching tiger hidden dragon and then turned funny. THEN my dad called and told me i could get my lunch pass if i only went off every once in awhile. THEN my rad sister called me and talked. THEN my parents said they'd help me get that guitar i wanted. and then the day almost got ruined by one lamefaced punk.
goodthing i'm so positive mang. you don't know how much better your life is you refuse negativity.

the rescue show was amazing. me and robes hung out the entire night which was real rad. and rodney kept on getting us to sing along with him during their set. PLUS me and robbie were messing with rodney while he was playing drums on a pad. and we were sticking our hands underneath while he was playing and he was trying to hit us and he nailed my nuckle. and i don't know if you've ever seen rodney. but he's just solid muscle. i think he broke my finger.
and oh yeah. the guys from he is legend were at the show to. they're realreal gay.

rodney just asked me to tour with the rescue this summer regardless of whether i'm in the rescue or not. he said he wants me to make sure he has all same color m&m's. hahaha. i still haven't decided yet whether i'm going to fill the spot with the rescue. i've been praying alot about it though. i just think it's amazing how much rodney's opened up to me this past week. he really is an amazing spirit filled guy.

i just saw ashley for the last time in about 3 months. we took about 30 pictures and had fun the whole night. we hugged, kissed and she cried and i shed A tear. me and michelle took our time saying goodbye outside my house. i'll only see her a few more times before she leaves me to.
it's really sad that all my best friends are gone or leaving. literally. it's killing me.
