It's just that I have to confirm these plans with parents, and since I have several people come up to me on the same day all asking to do different things its really hard to plan. There are 3 other kids in my house all enrolled in different activities and my parents have to work around that. So if I had 3 people ask me to: a). Have Breakfast; b). Have Lunch; or c). Have Dinner, I can only go to the one that my parents are available to drive me too. This stirs up the balance and makes people angry since like I said, everyone is from a different group and they don't ussually get along. So if I could only hang out with one person the others start to think i'm lying to them about not being able to hang out... It's just a really annoying occurrence and I needed a place to clear my mind... and this seemed to be the place to do so... lol

First of all, I don't want to sound like a huge d*ck when I say that I have a very large group of friends, most of which are all in different "Groups" or "Cliques" at school. Recently, I realized that I am having scheduling trouble and have been "Double Booking" when it comes to making plans with people. I don't mean to "Double Book" my plans, but for instance, over the course of last week, I had 5 different people ask me to hang out with them on Saturday (all of whom I am good friends with (each unfortunately is from a different clique and don't get along). By the time Saturday came around, I had been asked to go to the movies, sleep over, go horse-back riding, and had been invited to 2 dinner parties and I had absolutely no intention of making rounds during the day. Anyways, This has just been happening so much lately, its frustrating and I am starting to become a hermit (well just less involved)... I don't want to have to loose any friends, but I think I may have to start distancing myself from some of them and find my close knit group while still keeping my friendship with the others... If anyone has any advice, I would be glad to hear it!

I feel that it is very warm community and that they are a very fun group of people! Do you like to talk about your hobby with people who are not roller coaster enthusiasts? NO. This usually ends up resulting in an altercation of some sort.

Thank you! Those pants were custom made for my Grade 8 Graduation I'm in grade 11 and they still fit (Somewhat ) And if you dress like that everyday, you're automatically awesome.

It seems as though the riders are going to be in a vertical holding platform that releases them both into each tube at the same time, similar to the Bombay Blaster. Also, by the looks of things, your not actually entering a "pool" so much as a deeper slide area that will slow you down. You exit the slide via a spiral staircase that takes you out of the center of the bowl. Such a Strange Concept... Read this article from their website, It pretty much explains the whole experience: Splashtacular Entertainment Review: 360RUSH

Amazingly great find! I love this sort of historical stuff and this just made my day!

I love Photo 5. I think it has the best balance behind Photo 2.

I was a nerd. At the Party! Getting Ready For The Party!

Great PTR! Looks like you guys had an excellent time! I really wish that we had more small town festivals where I live. I love heritage and try to get out to these kinds of events as often as I can! P.S Lauryn is such a cutie!

It's funny that a lot people on here hate school dances. I however LOVE my school because we have RAVES. All the music is Euro House and Techno, none of that stupid overplayed radio sh*t. The school goes all out and gets strobe lights and a small fog machine. However, because of the cost, we only have 2 dances per year... One at Christmas and one at Graduation. I've been to one of the other school in my city's dance. They have those Much Music Video Dances. I did not like hearing "I've Got A Feeling" and "Cha-Ching" over and over again! I think I'll stick to my schools dances from now on...

LMFAO.

Nope, I pay for my plan... $50.00 each month... I think she just took it away so that I would go to bed earlier and not wake her up while I roam the house... I was not up talking on the phone but finishing the 3rd section of my art history assignment... BTW, I hate texting, I have unlimited Data and Calling... while having a limit of 250 texts a month...

I'm fine with my parents rules, they are fair and I agree with all of them. I don't have or ever have had a set "bedtime" which is why I am confused and a little angry. She walked into my room and took my phone off my nightstand telling me "You can have this back in 3 weeks and maybe you won't be up at 2 a.m." I wasn't even late for class that morning or anything. BTW, I also bought that phone myself. So it's not hers to take away.

My mom thinks that she can take my phone for 3 weeks cause I didn't go to bed until 2 a.m. last night. I got up and was at school on time! Seriously, What is her problem, I'm usually up till 3 on school nights.

Count me in...

This...

OMG. Someone who knows what these are! I bought 2 packs the other day, Strawberry and Milk flavoured... I LOVED THEM!
