I was feeling nostalgic (drunk) yesterday and got out old scrapbooks, notebooks, journals, etc. So I found this "About the Author" peice I wrote in my journal when I was 15...
1995
Courtney was born on a lovely summer day in 1980. Amidst fireworks and much to the joy of her parents, she was born on July 4th. Jimmy Carter was president, and he greatly influenced her decision to enter politics at the age of 5. Besides being the first kindergardener elected to the Senate, Courtney also enjoys the company of her 2 dogs, 4 ferrets, and 2 gerbils. During a typical day in her life, you can find Courtney helping the needy people of India and many other Middle Eastern countries. She also enjoys traveling. Of the places she has traveled, she cites the Orient as the most magnificent. When she is not climbing mountains, she can be found in the animal hospital comforting the lonely, sick animals. If she has one free moment in the day, she prefers to spend it with her lovely family she loves so much. Being that she is an only child, she is very independent. On a typical saturday night, Courtney enjoys watching Sabado Gigante, being that she is fluent in over 50 forms of communication. She currently lives in Barrington and contimues to write books.

The clock is ticking
He's lurking near
He's setting in
Its oh so clear
He's caught me in his net

Can someone tell me how?
Ode to Chemistry
All those elements
Boy do they suck
I've got a test tomorrow
Just my luck
I hate my teacher

The Gas Law Project is giving me fits
I hate Chemistry
It doesn't rule
I'm taking it again
