As the title indicates, the day was not that great. It starts out with late Tuesday, early Wednesday. Me and Michelle are working on our English stuff. She had not one but 2 reader response papers due and I had a grammer exercise and reading analysis due. Michelle takes a nap *at around 1 in the morning*. I am up working on my stuff, when I'm done, I'm to wake Michelle up and she is to finish her thing. It was all going good till Lorenzo started getting very drunk.

He starts to yell incredibly loud at my door. He is upset because I left the ramp in the front of the house. I hear him but try to ignore him hoping that he goes away. THat doesn't work. He gets so upset that I'm not responding to him that he starts to respeat even louder and soon, KICKS THE DOOR OPEN! At this point, i'm both angry and scared. I'm thinking, this guy is really nuts. He's like, your gonna listen to me. At that point, he then wants to sleep. He says that he wants me to turn off my computer and go to sleep. I tell him I can't do that because me and Michelle have important things to do. He doesn't care. I then tell him that since I pay rent, he can't tell me what I can and can't do in my room. Besides, the computer monitor and typing can't be heard or seen without trying too. I tell him that if the ramp is so important to him, I will move it. He then doesn't care about that and tells me to turn my computer off or he will. So at that point, he goes outside. Michelle is up, scared. She also has to use the bathroom but doesn't want to go out there. *who wouldn't be with this guy raving like a mad man at 4 in the morning. He then cuts my room's power.

He then comes back and asks what I'm gonna do about it. I tell him I'm gonna go outside and put it back on. SO we're yelling while Michelle finally sneaks off to the bathroom. My mom then gets upset after realizing what he did to my door. She threatens him with the cops. He leaves. TEMPORARILY.

He comes back banging at the front door. Everyone's nervous. We don't know what to expect from him. My mom insists I open the door. I do. He then tells me I must listen to him and all that. I tell him I won't. So he goes to the back and tries to turn off the power again. Ha, had a lil surprise for him, I locked off one of them. Though the main power box was w/o a lock. So he used that one, turning off main power. This upset my mom, making her say she would calll the cops again. In the meanwhile, he goes into the kitchen and turns on the gas. So after some yelling, he goes outside, takes out a part from the car and tryies to leave. My mom, realzing he is doing this, insists on the part back. He gives it back and leaves. He then threatens after that. He takes off then. So everyone, including the kids is up and stuff. It's 5;30 by then and my mom is upset at me and him. I explain that I can't back down because if he thinks he can control me, he will always flex his power. Besides, as a renter in this house, I'm allowed to do whatever I want in my room. She doesn't care and tells me to leave her alone.

I go in the room with Michelle. SHe don't even want to go on the computer. I insist. The reason is because she had 2 reports she hadn't even worked on. So she goes on. I stay up for a lil while with her to reassure her. I then crash out. Next thing I know, it's 1Pm. Michelle is almost done with one report. Things looking positive. We take shower and eat breakfast. Then, out of nowhere, the power goes out. I'm thinking, great, Lorenzo is back. NO. I was wrong. It's Rick that turned off the power. Though w/o warning. So I go out there and tell him that he needs to warn people because we had the computer on. He tells me to go away. I then argue with him. It ends with him tripping out and throwing a piece of wood at me, it hits my heel and then I am angry and upset. Michelle thinks we should go to the college. I think it's a good idea, so we go.

We end up meeting this bus driver that saw us the previous day and refused to give Michelle a daily pass. *no student ID* So after I attempt to make him feel bad, he threatens to pass me up next time. I back off.

We reach the college and emotionally, it almost all got to me. Michelle notices I'm upset but I tell her its ok. We go to the computer lab and she works on her other essay. I go and buy my lunch. *a bag of doritos* I go back to the computer lab until my kickboxing class.

While there, my teacher decides we're gonna go to the nearby park. So we all pair up. I end up getting with the group who likes to run. We arrive at the park and then she sets out where to run. She then tells us she wants us to walk or jog atleast a mile. She will take the 2 mile way. My group, the very-much inshape one, decides they want to do the 2 mile. I agree, though I never ran 2 miles in my entire life and doubt I can keep pace. We then run. We're the ones keeping up with the teacher. I tire out about 1/4 of the way. I tell my group I can't keep up. So they keep goin. I end up near another group and keeping pace with them. We take a short cut that saves us about a 1/4 mile and I go ahead of that group at the end to finish 5th. I was more exhausted than I EVER have been. 1.34 miles in about 15 minutes. That's alot for me. More than I knew, though I knew if I was pushed to my limit, i can achieve alot. So I go exhautly to computer lab, Michelle finishes off her other essay. We then go to class.

After a short class, I get out early to wait for Michelle. I then hear someone call my name. I look over and it's this asian girl. She looks familiar. Is it Kihn, Lihn? After some talking, I realize it's Lihn. *yeah, they both look and sound familar* We talk fairly easily to one another. Very open. Like we were pretty close friends easy. So after some chit chat, she asks what I'm doing out there. I tell her waiting for my girlfriend. She then utters, "Oh..." We talk about lil stuff like classes and stuff. She remembers me trying to get a license and other little stuff. I was surprised, I could hardly remember anything about her. After some talking, she has to go. She asks if my number is still the same. She then recites it. I agree and she leaves. I dunno if she's gonna call or what.

Michelle then gets out of class. I tell her what happened. She then wants to see her Monday. *she has class in same building* She wants us to look our best. *michelle likes that sort of stuff* So we talk about it and walk home.

We get home and Lorenzo's not there. That's a good thing, i play some Soul Caliber and beat my lil bro, sis, and his friend before making some dinner. After that, me and Michelle go to sleep. I wake up and decide to do this entry. While writing it, none other than Lorenzo himself is in the backyard. He is getting some stuff. I'm thinking, OMG, not another freakin episode. He then comes to the front door. I grab the phone and tell Michelle to be ready. *she got up due to the noise he was making* My mom answers the door. He is calm and wants back in. My mom doesn't let him in though. He wants his clothes. SHe tells him to come in the morning. He asks why he can't. My mom explains that since he no longer works, messed up the house, argues too much, and takes off with the car ALL the time, she don't want him anymore. At that time, I'm thinking, THANK GOD, finally. He then leaves.

Right now, i'm probaly gonna go back to sleep. Michelle can't fall back asleep, so I'm gonna maybe talk with her. I feel a lil better, though I hate this life sometimes. Without Michelle, the day would've been alot longer. Though I wish she didn't have to go through the crap that goes on in this accursed family. That is all. ~END~ P.S, pray for us.
