  Argh, more cleaning...

  Hola.

  Yup, more cleaning. Only this time, we cleaned out my backyard. Of course, I got stuck with cleaning up doggie droppings. Not fun. Plus, the sun was beating down, and it was humid. Sweat was pouring off me, we have a huge backyard. So, dragging a shovel and a trashcan across your gigantic backyard with only the very occasional shade while the sun is beating down on you and it's humid, is not fun at all. But I did get some Saladworks out of it, which is a really expensive salad place. I didn't really do much other than that today. I watched a '100 Best Songs of the 80s' countdown, with Don't Stop Believing as #1.

  I only managed to get up by 3%, making me level 10, %60. I really need to do more stuff on here. My goal is to get to level 11 by September 10th, and I won't get there just by blogging. I could try reviewing, though.

  School's coming up, very soon. It starts September 3rd. Luckily, I have friends in most of my classes. I went clothes shopping a while ago for school, I got a lot better clothes than I have now. I got shirts, hoodies, and pants out of the $130 that my aunt gave me. Plus, while I was there, I won a scratch-off lottery ticket! It was worth $50, so I put it towards the Avatar Book 1 box set, which I now have. I'm still saving up for Book 2 and Book 3, when it comes out.

  Cleaning day

  Heylo.

  So, I'm gonna try to write daily blogs, you know, to let you guys know what happens in my life. Which is pretty boring a lot of times. :/

  Anyway, today was not too great, but not too bad. It was pretty sunny and hot, around 90 degrees, but the heat's been going down and it wasn't humid outside. I went in my backyard for a little, kicking a soccer ball while walking parallel to my fence. Hopefully it cools down more soon, I like summer, but I prefer cooler weather.

  Here, I only gained 2 percent. O_o That makes me at Level 10, 57 percent. I'll try to be here more tomorrow and work my level up. I just need to find more shows to submit to, because that levels you up a lot more than blogging and posting. If you know any that need submissions badly, please comment and tell me.

  So, I went to clean out my grandmom's clothes. She passed away earlier this summer, and we're donating her clothes. All I had to do was put them in these big trash bags, and my aunt's gonna take them up to the charity tomorrow. After that, I came home and found my living room furniture in my dining room. We're cleaning the carpet because of all the little doggie #1 stains, and it looks a lot better now. We still have to move the furniture back, though. Overall, the day wasn't too bad.

  Coming back

  Well, I decided to come back here. Just don't expect me to be on as much as before, I'm usually at the Refuge, and school's coming up September 3rd. But I'll still try to be on at least once a day.

  Anyway, I should work on leveling up more. I'm only at level ten, exactly %50 of the way up. But I did get the 20 friends emblem, which is great. I'll work on more contributions and reviews, I guess. The Avatar boards are a lot more dead than before, so post count won't help me as much.

  I really should get my sleep schedule back on track. This and last night, I lay there and toss over and over, I can't sleep at all. I just try to stop thinking about things, but that doesn't help. I wind up just thinking about them again. I fell asleep around 4:00 PM yesterday, and woke up at about midnight today. So, I should try to go back to sleep now, hopefully I'll be able to.
