Cell Phone...

Over the weekend Jenn explained to me a situation that happened in study hall that I found pretty interesting. She happens to have a teacher in study hall who graduated a year before I did, and she said "do you know him? He's such an asshole!" As we continued to talk about it, she explained that cell phones are not allowed in school, however the teacher can not take it from you if they see you with it. Jenn will not leave her phone for a second, literally, and will throw a fit if her parents true to take it away from her as a form of punishment. I cannot stress enough how secretive and obsessed with her phone she is. Nonetheless, the teacher she "hates" tried to take it from her in Study Hall and she flipped out and told him "no you're not taking my phone, give it back to me I don't care if you write me up it's mine!" He wrote her up, and she never showed for the detention of course. So, her wrote her up again and she didn't show once again, and so now he wants to give her an in school suspension. She talks and acts as if he has no authority over her! She talks to him like, "no it's my phone you're not taking it"! Unbelievable, but just goes to show how important cell phones are to teens in today's society. Also, I cannot imagine talking to a teacher like that when I was in high school!

Problems..

Jenn and Jamie used to be very close friends however as I mentioned earlier they seemed to have drifted apart. I'm not sure if Jenn got caught up in a new group of friends and so left her old friends, including Jamie, or it just happened when they started meeting new people. However, since I am closer with Jenn, it's tough to meet with Jamie because I think she thinks of me as Jenn. Jenn claims to call and text Jamie all the time but Jamie never responds. I finally tracked Jamie down and asked her if I could come to her horseback riding lesson. She seemed very excited, and so I drove an hour to my parents just to go see her ride. When I arrived, I wasw still recovering from the flu and ended up falling asleep. I woke up and it was dark out and I had a bunch of missed calls from Jamie. I called her to apologize and I was very upset because not only did I drive all the way to see her, but I felt like I betrayed her. She said "kar don't worry about it, it's cold out anyway so it's better that you didn't come because you probably would've gotten more sick". I just felt so bad and it was a horrible day. I just have to hope for the best and hope it didn't ruin my relationship with her, I'm planning on going home Thursday to watch her so we will see how it goes...

Friday Night at my Apartment..

I had the flu from thursday until Sunday, and so Jenn called me Friday and said she needed to "get away" and asked if she could come and stay with me for the night. I was happy to have the company since I was sick and so we decided to order chinese and watch a movie. Her parents drove her down and picked her up saturday morning. We had a great night, and she was very comfortable with me. As for my roomates, they were expecting to see a little convict when they met her, but after the first couple of minutes they said "aww kar she doesn't loook or act like a convict she's so cute". We all got along very well that night and told stories and laughed and had a great time. Jenn was very comfortable with us and just acted like she was hanging out with her own friends. However, the next morning she got up and took a shower and was expecting her parents to pick her up and drive her and her friend to mountain creek to go snowboarding. Her parents said that was too much driving and so they refused to take her. She threw a fit, and my roomates had mentioned that if they ever talked to there parents the way she did they'd get their mouth washed out with soap. Her parents finally arrived and she left, but it made me realize that she is a totally different person with her parents then as she is with her friends. She's a great person and a lot of fun, however she doesn't treat her parents very well and expects them to do everything for her. She's just a typical teen who thinks she has a horrible life and so takes all her anger out on the people who are closest to her.
