I have been so Internet deprived for the past 2 days!!!! *Sigh*
Two days ago, I was sitting at the dinner table, allowing my Dad to see that I was doing academic work. My stepmom said she needed our help with peeling shrimp. My Dad unwillingly left the laptop and I reluctantly left my notebook. We proceeded to the counter and started to peel the good-for-nothing shrimp. After a short while, my wrist starts to itch. A big round red bump had risen, and it was developing a solid, invisible shell. O_____________O I tried to ignore it, but it only got worse. Halfway through peeling, the area of my arm which the shrimp-tainted water ran down started to also itch! Badly. I stopped what I was doing and swore at the dead, half-frozen shrimp. Two short minutes later, white, hard, extremely itchy spots were appearing on my shrimp-water soaked hands and fingers. Now, after two days, my hands and arms are still a bit itchy. Thanks to the freaking shrimp. Like, wtf.
I didn't know I was that sensitive to shrimp. But I have gotten allergies from it and other seafoods on two previous occasions. I will never eat, smell, look at or get within a 3 meter boundary of shrimp ever again. Just when I was going to change my mind about shrimp, it comes back and cause me hell(basically bites me in the ass).
Excuse my language. =D
I finally got the 6th Harry Potter book!! =D But I have reached a semi-crisis. =(
Ya see, in my class, Mr. Zellner (English teacher) ordered "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens for everyone. The book is not that long, thank God, but it is undeniably boring. I am forced to read another 120 pages by tomorrow morning. ZZZZzzzz....ZZZzzzz...zzzz...I think you are beginning of see my problem.
I was going to order the HP book online for $17.99 since it is cheaper that way, and would arrive only after I finish "A Tale of Two Cities". HOWEVER, my stepmom saw it yesterday for $15.00!!! She bought it and I have been buried in it since. I am on page 163, which is further than where I'm at in the Charles Dickens book! Ahhhh...what do I do??!! I don't want to fail English! And I really should be prudent about all this. But I can not manage to focus in the Charles Dickens book.
School is starting in 3 weeks for me. I have been here in Dallas for 3 weeks. Great..
I will now return to my HP reading which will take my mind off my itchy hands.
^^ Y.
PS: The house hunting is not going so well. We might temporarily move into a luxurious apartment instead!! =(

Oh well, don't really mind the allergy. That way nobody forces me to eat them. =D
I'm taking this SAT preparation course here and we do math and English.
That book is a total bore. *snooze snooze*
