Finally fixed the PC last night, so you will notice that my live cam is now live again. No more static pictures of me making that stupid face. :crazy:

A couple weeks ago I saw a familiar face walking my neighborhood. This is one of the few faces that actually stirs a sad emotion in my when I see it. When I moved onto middle school everything changed for me. The California Acheivement tests moved me from my average level classes into honors and GT classes, so I was moved out of classes that I had with my friends. I ended up having to try to make all new friends, which being a shy, overweight kid was really hard for me. I found a few people that didn’t mind talking to a new face and that didn’t make me feel like I needed to just close up completely. Then one day I got a note from one of the girls. The note pretty told me that this girl hated me and that she wanted me to stay away from her and ALL of her friends, which pretty much encompassed all of the people that I was trying to make friends with. For an 11 year old it was crushing. I cried myself to sleep for at least a week straight. That’s the kind of pain that you never forget. Now this girl lives in my neighborhood just 6 doors down from me on my same street. Is it wrong that I am happy that she has big hips?

I am going to try to use my popularity as an internet celebrity (I can dream can’t I?) for a good cause. I am running in the Susan G Komen Foundations Race For A Cure to help fight breast cancer. It is hard to throw a rock now-a-days without hitting someone that has been touched by this dreaded disease. I lost my Great Aunt Annie to breast cancer just a few short years ago. There is hope though. Great foundations like the Susan G Komen Foundation are fighting for a cure, but they need our help. By clicking here and sponsoring me for just a few dollars you can help me to help this great organization.
