Helping out
Dear Diary,

Well, I did end up going to Alex's *new* place afterall. It was VERY nice. Mirror on the entrance ceiling, big rooms, pool, big screen tv and Alex with all his stuff. Speaking of his stuff. That is where the title comes in. As you may or may not know, alex is in a wheelchair. He has limited use of his legs but total use of his arms and upper body. Anyways, he had all his stuff still in boxes. So guess who had to help him. ME! While atfirst I most certainly didn't mind helping *afterall, if I was in his position, i'd want help too* Though it became clear to me that I wasn't helping him, just letting him be lazy. I never did get around to making him help me but I must admit, it did annoy me having to take stuff out the boxes, set everything up and clean up the entire mess that was in the room. *he did buy me pizza afterwards though* I guess it annoyed me because I felt like I was doing all the work when he could've pitched in and the fact I felt I couldn't say anything simply because he was in a wheelchair. Not only that, but to be frank, I don't even clean up or do them kind of things for myself. Anyways, enough of me kinda complaining over useless crap. Lemme put down what else happened there.

Ok, after it is all said and done, The entertainment center of his is put together and we are ready to play some video games. And boy does he have video games. EVERY popular system. Nintendo, Super Nintendo, N64, Playstation 2, X-Box, Sega Dreamcast, Sega Genesis, Gameboy Advance. Lots of games too. So we play those. Was ALOT of fun. We watched some dvds too. He has alot of those too. *I admit, I was a lil jealous, but I mean, that's just me*

On another note, this one girl Rachael was there. *one of his sister's friends* It was kinda funny because she asked if I went to the local middle school or if I was in the high school. I laughed and told her I was in college. She asked alot of things. I think she liked me. She is ok. One problem, her age. I think she's like 15. So for now, she is out of the question, though what kinda scares me is I haven't eliminated her completly from my mind. Despite the age difference. *gee, i wish 15 y.o.'s would've liked me when I was 15*

We also ended up seeing a movie at the theaters today. This one called RUNTELTHAT with Martin Lawerence. Its stand up comedy with prodominately black humor. I liked it, though its very crude. Was cool at the plaza. We went alot of places and bought a few things. Ended up seeing Ayumi and Romero there. Seems Ayumi don't like Alex. She says flatly, " I don't like you because you and Eliza dont get along" THen she said something like "Tino, she said you said negative stuff about her too" I was like WHAT!! She said she was gonna chat to me, though it never happened. Eventually a ride home.

All in all, I was happy to go there. I'd do it again. Other than the helping out, went really cool. Well, there were a few parts where Alex's family refered back to my neighborhood in lower terms. I didn't like that. Though its common for people to refer to this area in lower regard. Sometimes they realize they're talking about the people from here and realize that I'm also from here and they say, well except you! Anyways, day doesn't end though, I end up talking to Donald, JEff, and Ray.

Donald seems ok, though wants to do stuff like hangout. Jeff was all depressed because I was the only one who called him on his b-day. Though we kinda got into it because he wanted to play his bass instead of talking to me. With Ray, he found a way to help me see things in a lil different light. Pointed out to me that I need to stop being so pessimistic and go back to being optimistic like i was. Anyways, I won't go into all that today, basically, he helped me out really good. I'm glad, though by the same token, I hate it when he's right. I hate feeling inferior to him. He seems to be able to oneup me on everything.

Last thing before I go. I missed my online friends. LOL, its weird, I'm too used to their colored text. Though I missed my friend Niels the most because I been gone while I'm sure I could've been there for him. He's been in my prayers and staying there, i hope you will do same for him and me. That is all. ~END~
