I've been pretty fed up with people at school. Sometimes, they're so noisy and annoying that I can't even concentrate on my work. Last week, I kept thinking about my old friends from Carman-Ainsworth, and I wished they were there with me. No matter how idiotic some kids acted, they could cheer me up.
In my dream, I was sitting in my math class with a bunch of jerks who kept yelling stupid things at the top of their lungs. I was so upset by them, I took the worksheet I was doing, and crumped it up. I looked at my watch and realized the class was almost over. I willed myself not to cry, but I couldn't help it, and silent tears ran down my face.
I tried my best to block the idiots at my table out, but then I heard the morons at the table behind me. They were tormenting some kid because he never said anything to them. I thought, "Well, duh" because no one in their right mind would talk to these cretins. When I turned around, I saw who they were tormenting... it was my old friend from Carman-Ainsworth, Brendon! The two guys in my school I hate the most were pushing Brendon and smacking him, so I got up and punched them both in the face. *Me*! I never punch *anybody*!
As soon as I got the butt-holes away from Brendon, I saw everybody watching me. I gave them all a lecture about how much better Brendon was than all of them. I said he was going to be somebody simply because he *didn't* hang out with people like them. I told them what a great person Brendon was, and how sweet and helpful he was to everyone. I told them I hated them all, and then I stormed out of the classroom.
When I got outside, I noticed it was lunch time, but I called my mom to come, pick me up from school anyway. As my mom pulled up in the school's parking lot, I saw Brendon walking up to me. He told me thank you for telling those guys where to stick it, and then he hugged me. The hug was really comforting to me, I guess I really miss Brendon I lot more than I thought. I started crying again, and when I pulled away, I saw that Brendon was crying too. Then he told me he loved me, and my mom honked.
As I got into my mom's car and waved goodbye to him, I realized I loved him, too. Then I woke up. I felt really serene, and happy, but I felt sad too. As I got out of bed and looked in the mirror, I saw that I really was crying.

Riding in Cars With Parental Units
Grandma and Grandpa Z. came over last night, and they told us there was going to be a pumpkin patch set up at their church tomorrow. Dad and I were going to go to that today, but I'd already promised Sarah I'd go to the pumpkin patch with her this year, and Zach said she'd be hurt by my going with dad, so I didn't.
Well, we didn't get to pig out on donuts and cider while petting filthy animals at the petting zoo/pumpkin patch, but oh well. Instead, Dad and I headed over to Great Lakes Crossing in Pontiac. There, we went to the theatre to see Riding in Cars With Boys. It wasn't the best movie I ever saw, but it did teach some pretty dang good, although obvious, life lessons:
1. Don't have sex out of wed-lock, especially not with a guy who drinks like a sailor.
2. Try to refrain from locking your kids out of the house so you can stay inside and do drugs, you moron.
3. Go to the bathroom before you see Riding in Cars With Boys because it's really long, and you'll have to go by the time it's over, guarenteed.
Welp... that's all I have to say about that. See ya!

HORRIBLE NEWS!
Yesterday, Zach drove Mom and I to the Hurricanes' game in Saginaw. It was an awesome game; we won! I did everyhting from helping Mom and Laurie (a hockey mom) sell tickets to hanging out with Zach in the music box to sitting with the benched hockey players. After the third period, Zach and I walked across the ice, and I slipped. I was this close to falling! Tim video taped, too! It was awesome.
After making sure the players all had rides home, I went to dinner with Mom, Mike, Kurt and Dupes to Old Country Buffet (uck!). Well, it sucked to have to eat there in the first place, but as I was eating my salad, I was informed that I CAN'T DATE THE HOCKEY PLAYERS! Apparently, the first rule Kurt made as coach of the Hurricanes was, "No dating the owner's, coaches, or other players' immediate family."
HOOOOLY *CRAP*! The awful news sunk into my brain like the nasty corn that was slowly sinking into my mashed potatoes. And I wasn't the only one who was upset. Michelle Shaw, Mike Shaw's sister, was terrified. Just that day, we had been discussing which player we were going to go for. I'm into Reese, Carl and her brother, Mike, while she's into Cory and Reese. Now neither one of us can date *any* of the players! GRRRR!
GAAAAAH! The hockey players are like, the only nice guys in this town, and they're all so hot (except for two of them)! I mean... geez! Man, this is just horrible punishment for something we didn't even do! Somehow, we've got to work our way around this rule!!!!
I'm going to either plot revenge on Kurt or figure out a way to date the hockey players now. See ya!

Happy Hollyween!
I took this little dealie from Devilish Devitalizer.
Section 1 - Obligatory Questions:
Name: Holly Rachael Zintel.
Age: 17
Location: Sometimes Flint, sometimes Bay City, MI.
Section 2 - This is my costume. Give me the damn candy!
What was your first Halloween costume? I was a Carebear!
What was your costume last year? Andrea from Daria. It wasn't one of my better ones.
What will your costume be this year? My grandpa Shoup!
Has there ever been a reoccurring theme with your costumes? For the past three years, I've been a character from Daria. Before that, I just tried to pick the goofiest costume I could.
Through the years, what have your costumes been? A Carebear, a clown, Smurfette, Peter Pan, Ariel the Little Mermaid, a butterfly, Paula Abdul, a ballerina dinosaur, a silly-looking witch, Todd from One Life to Live, a yin-yang... thing, an Egyptian chick, Daria Morgendorffer, a vampire version of Jane from Daria, my Grandma Z. and Andrea from Daria.
What was your favorite costume? Grandma Z. I looked just like her, plus people tell me I can immitate her voice perfect. It rocked; that was so much fun! Todd from OLTL was cool, too.
What is your dream costume? I'd like to be Rosie O'Donnel, but I can't find the right materials.
Which do you prefer, store bought or home made costumes? Homemade. I've never had a store-bought costume in my life because I think they're uncreative.
Masks or make up? Make-up!
Have you ever dyed, cut or did anything else to your hair for a costume? My mom dyed my hair red when I was Ariel in kindergarten, and my dad dyed it black when I was Jane the vampire, but the dye got on my neck, and wouldn't wash off for weeks!
What is the longest time you ever spent working on a costume? I think it was when I was Todd from OLTL.
The shortest? The Egyptian one didn't take too long, because I just wore one of my dance recital costumes, and painted eye-makeup on.
What was the most expensive costume you wore? Grandma Z., I think.
The least expensive? Probably Smurfette.
Section 3 - Trick or Treat, smell my feet, gimme something good to eat.
What kind of bag or pail did you collect candy in? A pillowcase.
Did you ever get so much candy it spilled over the top? I don't believe so. I usually got too tired to stay out very long.
Broke the bag/pail? I don't think so.
Did you just Trick or Treat up your street or your street and everyone else's? Usually my street, but for the past few years, it's been my aunt Barb's neighborhood, and once, my grandma Shoup's.
Candy that you hated to get? That really hot kind.
Do you think Trick or Treating should only be done at night? Yes, but safely and responsibly.
What is the perfect weather for Trick or Treating? Nice and warm so you don't have to put a coat or hat on and mess up your costume or makeup.
Section 4 - It's alive! ALIVE!!!
What is your favorite monster? The Cookie Monster.
Why do you like this monster so much? He bears cookies. What's not to like?

Location: Sometimes Flint, sometimes Bay City, MI.
Section 2 - This is my costume. Give me the damn candy!
What was your first Halloween costume? I was a Carebear!
What was your costume last year? Andrea from Daria. It wasn't one of my better ones.
What will your costume be this year? My grandpa Shoup!
Has there ever been a reoccurring theme with your costumes? For the past three years, I've been a character from Daria. Before that, I just tried to pick the goofiest costume I could.
Through the years, what have your costumes been? A Carebear, a clown, Smurfette, Peter Pan, Ariel the Little Mermaid, a butterfly, Paula Abdul, a ballerina dinosaur, a silly-looking witch, Todd from One Life to Live, a yin-yang... thing, an Egyptian chick, Daria Morgendorffer, a vampire version of Jane from Daria, my Grandma Z. and Andrea from Daria.
What was your favorite costume? Grandma Z. I looked just like her, plus people tell me I can immitate her voice perfect. It rocked; that was so much fun! Todd from OLTL was cool, too.
What is your dream costume? I'd like to be Rosie O'Donnel, but I can't find the right materials.
Which do you prefer, store bought or home made costumes? Homemade. I've never had a store-bought costume in my life because I think they're uncreative.
Masks or make up? Make-up!
Have you ever dyed, cut or did anything else to your hair for a costume? My mom dyed my hair red when I was Ariel in kindergarten, and my dad dyed it black when I was Jane the vampire, but the dye got on my neck, and wouldn't wash off for weeks!
What is the longest time you ever spent working on a costume? I think it was when I was Todd from OLTL.
The shortest? The Egyptian one didn't take too long, because I just wore one of my dance recital costumes, and painted eye-makeup on.
What was the most expensive costume you wore? Grandma Z., I think.
The least expensive? Probably Smurfette.
Section 3 - Trick or Treat, smell my feet, gimme something good to eat.
What kind of bag or pail did you collect candy in? A pillowcase.
Did you ever get so much candy it spilled over the top? I don't believe so. I usually got too tired to stay out very long.
Broke the bag/pail? I don't think so.
Did you just Trick or Treat up your street or your street and everyone else's? Usually my street, but for the past few years, it's been my aunt Barb's neighborhood, and once, my grandma Shoup's.
Candy that you hated to get? That really hot kind.
Do you think Trick or Treating should only be done at night? Yes, but safely and responsibly.
What is the perfect weather for Trick or Treating? Nice and warm so you don't have to put a coat or hat on and mess up your costume or makeup.
Section 4 - It's alive! ALIVE!!!
