Purses, calories and misery

First thing is first.

Ladies, why do you feel the need to bring a purse to school ALONG WITH your back pack? Your backpack must not weigh as much as mine does because the last thing I would want to be doing is lugging around an extra 5+ lbs. I think girls who bring purses to school and carry them around all day are silly. Everyone has cute purses, so it's not like you have to come to school to show off your fun new things. If you want to do that, high school is just down the street. 

Next. Does anyone realize just how much 1,200 calories is? Because I am here to tell you that no normal person should be okay with only eating that much every day. My lunch bag looked so sad today since all it had in it was a tuna fish sandwich, and apple, an orange, some Trisciuts, and some carrots. This whole you-are-about-to-take-pictures-that-you-will-have-for-the-rest-of-your-life diet really sucks.

Did I mention I was hungry?

I just have to keep telling myself I will appreciate the sacrifice when those pictures are taken...that being said, I have never wanted junk food so much before in my life.

(I am currently sucking on an atomic Fireball though, to distract my mouth and it is working. I may have to stock up on these...)

Today I hate having to come up with headlines for my section's stories. I might have a really good one, but then it doesn't fit into the space, and anyone who has done this before knows, you don't change the space for the headline, you change the headline for the space.
