bush - letting the cables sleep

yeah... uhh.. i'm really disturbed right now and i've cried a lot today. i was just watching law and order, and it was the one where they were trying to decide whether to give the 18-year-old kid the death penalty. of course, he was sentenced to it, and the next to last shot is his mother crying and screaming "NOOOO! DON'T KILL HIM!!" and trying to grab him away from the guards. and... i don't know, i'm already all emotional today because of the assembly (more about that in a sec), and it's been taking everything in me not to bitch people out lately cause i'm PMSing and it's getting colder and darker.

so anyway, we had an assembly about a girl who died in columbine. video and audio from the day of the shooting. i cried. for the first time since july... actually, that's a lie. i cried sunday night. but only a little. anyway, back on topic.. it was just so intense and overwhelming. and then they were talking about this girl's life, and everything she believed in... at first i was like, "this chick isn't a hero just because she died, you know. she didn't choose to die." but really... if that's what it takes to get her story out there, then, you know, everything happens for a freaking reason. and no, i'm not saying that it's good that she died. but anyway, really, this girl had a lot of the same opinions and ideals as me... and that's what i strive for. what really freaking KILLED me this afternoon, though, was that everyone was back to normal life afterword, and my brain was still buzzing. i didn't want to talk to anyone. at all. because i didn't want to hear anyone else's opinion right then. so i didn't. it was really depressing.

i had an ok afternoon but now i'm all depressed again. at least it's for a good reason and not my own twisted mind, for once. it's still raining. and i have no homework.

the arcade fire - rebellion (lies)

saturday = okay, sunday = horrible. i had to go to dance, and i was DEAD. then i got really frustrated about homework and other things, and THEN i couldn't sleep. so i'm still dead tired.

so yeah. i had a really emo morning. my mom had to leave early so i had to close up the house and it was all dark and stuff. i walked to the bus stop and it was dark and raining. i listened to 'blue and yellow'. twice. and then sat alone on the bus behind gerard and listened to more of the used.

french class was fun. we had a sub and i had the assignment done so i talked to olivia, jenny, mike and aj. they're cool.

i perked up a little by the end of the day. then i rode the bus home and listened to the arcade fire.

rachel, emily and leah were going to grasshopper (the hippie store) today so i went with them. i got the most amazing skirt that just screams 'annie', a necklace with a giant peace sign, a headband, and a pin that says ROCK over a star. i feel satisfied.

i sort of want it to be friday, because we have that day off, but at the same time i'm really not looking forward to it because i want to do something but i probably won't be able to.

sponge - molly

mmmmm. last night was probably the most fun i've had since august. went to noises off again, with whitney, leah and emily. it was even funnier this time for a couple of reasons... firstly, i understood it more and got more jokes, and secondly, there were these two guys that were laughing SO HARD, and we thought we were going to lose one of them. one was really fat... every time he barked out a laugh emily would JUMP. once i heard one of the guys choke, and once i heard a snort... so backstage they'd hear them laugh and then leah and i laughing. haha. it was great.

afterwords we squished 7 people in dan's car - this would be dan, jonas, rachel, leah, me, whitney, and chris (in the trunk), hahaha - and went to pizza hut. i'd had pizza for dinner, so i didn't really want any, but ohmygod, so much fun. we're crazy. i hope we didn't scar whitney for life... dan is weird, and i was really happy so i was all ditzy-hyper-crazy... anyway, add about 3 more people and i would've been with all my favorite people in the whole world. and i missed dan. a lot. chris needs to send me the pictures he took. like, now. haha.

i got home at about 12:30, and i couldn't fall asleep... i also woke up in the middle of the night for absolutely no reason, and then my dad woke me up at 6 (i had my alarm set for 6:30). make a difference day, yo. i got lucky... it's raining outside, but i got to be inside. we painted kindergarten cubbies at my old pre-school. they were bright red. hehe. it was fun. and i met kosnac's daughter!! it was pretty crazy.

ate lunch at the campus center, went to sarah's birthday party. it was fun. i luffs her. we made smelly stuff and i played guitar and we watched some of 'sixteen candles'. yeah, and now i'm REALLY REALLY tired... i think i might go to bed really soon. hahaha.

it's not like i think about you constantly

bright eyes - when the president talks to god

i feel like i'm going to vomit. i probably just ate too much for dinner and then went to dance. well, duh, i went to dance... but i mean i probably just ate too much for dinner.

i had a great day. i was in a really good mood, because it's thursday, which is close to friday, and whitney was back at school (yay), and this morning i read a new email from dan and it was pretty much the best he's ever sent me. it made me really happy. and i told him so. TOMORROW, YAY. :D :D :D i miss seeing him every day.

um, anyway, yeah, i took the stupid history test, and i think i did well because i didn't leave any blank and there weren't any that i wasn't sure about. i also got my french test back... i'm gonna go ahead and brag my little head off, because i couldn't in my class for fear of getting hit... there were 2 100%s in the class, and i got one of them. the other one went to the canadian kid... who's obviously amazing at french. i'm really, really happy & proud because this was a freaking enormous and hard test. yay.

in english i brought in my beatles cd and the amazing mrs. g played it. we were happy. and freaking danny was SINGING ALONG. SHOCKING. adam got out his freaking psp and put his headphones on. i was pissed. see what i mean about never being able to see us dating?

we worked out the whole harvest situation. it kind of sucks, though. this morning i decided that i REALLY wanted to go with chris. not just as a second choice... i REALLY wanted to go with him. but last night christine's boyfriend broke up with her, so he's going with her. i missed my chance.. i mean, duh, i don't LIKE him (AHHHH GOSH THAT'S WEIRD but you know, i have to explain), but it'd be so much fun :( and i guess it really would be awkward for a few people if justin was there. so i'm not asking him either. so unless something changes, i'm dateless. but that's ok.

my weekend is going to be INSANE. ready? tomorrow night = reserving noises off tickets, getting sarah's birthday present, auditioning for the solo in cheri's dance piece, noises off, cast party. saturday = getting up early (i'll get 5 hours of sleep if i'm lucky) for make a difference day, sarah's birthday party, SLEEP. sunday = more dance class (cheri's). aaaaaaaaaaah!!! i hope it all works out... and i'm insanely thankful that my mom's letting me to go the cast party tomorrow night.. but only for an hour. but still... i'm really really lucky. score.

there's nothing you can do that can't be done

the beatles - ticket to ride

i'm really talkative today. i couldn't shut up all day, and after improv i went to my mom's office, and i was all perky and talkative and i think i freaked a couple of her coworkers out, but they love me, so it's ok. and i just sent an enormous email that was just kind of "blah, blah, blah". heh, but it's okay.

so my day was basically characterized by french and the beatles. i had a GIGUNDAMO french test 7th period.. i was kind of studying frantically and panicking all day. definitions/conjugations of about 50 irregular verbs, plus some expressions. BUT when i took it, there was only one thing i wasn't sure about, and i looked that up after i was done and i got it right. it made me happy.

rachel & i listened to the beatles in study hall (i heart joo, terpsie/ipod). and she had the idea to bring 'one' to english class, cause our teacher's a beatles freak. so she's going to play it tomorrow or friday :D it'll be great... especially since we have all the uberjocks in our class that don't appreciate good music.

i have a really stupid history test tomorrow. we have to memorize the titles and artists of 30 random paintings, and know how to recognize them. i can do it... it's just pointless. sigh.

yesterday at the dentist i read an article in 'time' about how gay teens are coming out younger and younger, and it's due to the fact that this generation is so much more accepting. like, even the kids that were raised conservative/christian are way more accepting of gays and bisexuals. now, you KNOW the day i like girls is a sign of the apocalypse... but i'm SO for gay rights. (what the hell is wrong with it?) so yeah, i'm pretty optimistic about the future and for the most part, i love this generation.

woahz, after tomorrow i have like, no dance classes for two weeks. OH and friday night is my very first AUDITION FOR A DANCE PIECE!!! there's a solo at the beginning of cheri's piece. i seriously want it SO BAD. i think everyone else is sort of just 'willing' or 'a little interested'... i, like, SERIOUSLY want it. wish me luck!!
