2003-03-06 / 4:29 p.m.

Because I am a lazy person who doesn't feel like writing a real entry once again, and because I also don't feel like doing my lab report, but shhh about that, I am filling out another survey.

When you put your name on some paper at school, how do you usually put your name down?: I write my first, name, Lindsay, and then my last name. I do it on like every paper I get, just because it's such a habit.

Do you believe in the saying, "You learn something new every day,"? Yeah, because I pretty much do learn something new everyday. Even if it's something as seemingly insignificant as realizing the E.L. Fudges are called that because their initials spell elf, and elves are the mascots of the cookies.

Name five things that will stay the same this upcoming school year. Argh, these questions involve too much thinking! I will still have this diary, Melissa will still be my best friend, I will still play the flute, I will still hate school and I will still take a lunch.

If you were to win $50,000 would you rather buy a car or give $25,000 to charity and spend the rest on college funds? Well, if I got that much money, I'd make sure that my car did not cost $50,000, cuz that's just stupid and wasteful. So then I might donate some money to charity, and some to my college funds and then spend some on clothes. :)
