It seems to me that I sound cinical or more mature now, am I?
It "snowed" today! Snow in Oklahoma is like light, fluffy flurries, but I was happy about it nonetheless. Mike - our rightful bus driver - said that if he was on the bus when the fight happened he wouldn't have called the administraitors, he would've just broke it up. We all thought that too, damn if only Mike had been there, I doubt it would've happened if he had been driving anyway.
Band was, embarrassing for me today. He was telling the saxaphones about giving them eggnog with chunks of egg in it (because they sounded like crap) and I was like, "Eggnog, really has egg in it?" He got this look on his face and said, "Um, yeah. That's why they call it 'EGGNOG'!" The whole band kind of laughed at me and I just felt my face go flush. I felt like an idiot, but again I had a little soli part in our fourth movement. Me and Jourdan held it down during the second movement - BLACK POWER!
I missed ONE on my anatomy worksheet and I was so happy! We got our progress reports and I got straight A's, so far I'm keeping with my resolution! It was the first time this WHOLE YEAR I had straight A's. Then we just kind of sat around and talked. Adam, the "new" kid, told us that he came from Moore. I just sort of laughed at him, I thought people said that Moore was the better school? So why is it that you're students are so desperate to go to Westmoore? People actually lie about their addresses just so they can go to Westmoore.
We had a quiz in history and I think I got all of it right. I didn't really study, but looked over our notes and my worksheets. We finished watching a movie and I finished up my "revised" satirical essay. I tried to sleep, but the light just bothered me. It's time like that when I miss Wes because I remember he'd never let me watch the damned movie because he write me little notes or talk to me. I miss those days...
I was like the second person into the room and I had my head tilted to and was leaning on my hand. Well Addison walked in and kind of tilted his head the way I had mine. I supported the band and bought skittles and Addison was like, "Oooo can I have a skittle?" So I gave him the bag, and he got ONE skittle. Why couldn't I have been buddy buddy with him last year? I wish he wasn't a senior because he's a really great guy.
I had lunch with Ashley, Areli and Jamee. It was cool because I haven't really talked to Ashley in awhile, Ashley Morrison got her wisdom teeth pulled so she hasn't been here in about a week. I feel so bad, I don't want my freaking wisdom teeth. If it's going to hurt like that? Oh no way, I've already had like two teeth pulled and ONE freaking cavity. How could I, of all people, get a cavity? I brush my teeth TWICE A DAY, FLOSS AND RISE WTIH MOUTHWASH! Oh well I know where it is, but you can't see it because it's the clear filling.
We had an indiviual day today in english so I turned in my revised essay and I was talking and Tung gave me a hug! He's so fine. **drools** Don't worry you're fine too! I finished my reader responses and the two pages that were due at the end of the hour. On my way to Math David puts his arm around me and Andrew is on my other side pushed up against me, so David puts me on his other side - David wants me! Math was good because we had the whole class hour to work and I worked, I got halfway finished with my work. Since we talk so much Garrett got like three problems done. We just tell each other stories about people. We're so bad.
I go home and I find out that Mateo go in a fight with the dog that lives in the corner house - Zach - this morning. I wouldn't doubt it because it damn near followed me to the bus stop, when I crossed the street it just stood there. Some dogs are just dumb. Well I do my usual and I see that Ricky left me some love on my tag board and now my name shall be "band gangster". Top that bitches!
Dad calls and is like, "Did you call?" I was like, "No." Erika had called and she just left and I told him that, the whole time I'm talking like I'm all high and shit. "Yeeeeah." It was funny. I watched me some Jepordey (ok ok ok that's a HARD word) and I so dominated. I fed the dogs and was getting so anxious because it was getting late and I needed to be up at the school. FINALLY mom pulls up and I drive there.
I hate the rain because it just sits there on your side windows. This time I didn't have to park in the church parking lot, yes! I get there and there is ONE percussionist - Garrett. A few more showed up and I got to see Garrett play bass drum for like the LAST time ever. It was so freaking hot in the gym I swear you could fry an egg on my cheek. We didn't play that much, the girls won and the guys lost - BAD! Unfortunately I had to sit in front of Matt Altunian, but I got to sit behind Joe and Colby. They're so cool, Garrett was being mean and didn't want to sit near me. I think I shall make a shirt that says "I heart percussion" and on the back all the percussionist names. Maybe...I got to sit next to Jeff, who was the only tuba so he got a solo and he's really good. Kendall was kind of ignoring me, but then again he was watching the game. Mr. Westbrook made Matt cry and he laughed about it! Man that's so messed up, he asked me how I was doing because he hasn't seen me in awhile. He said that I would be the one to beat up Matt, maybe if he got in my face. I talked to Ivan and he's not that bad of a guy actually.
I helped Garrett put up his percussion stuff, never will I be a percussionist during marching season. That snare was heavy and I want to play bass! Nope, but I learned how to hold stickes - again - and how to put up the "snare claw?" Garrett is going to this clinic tomorrow and I hope he does really good becuase I want him to make the OU marching band! Holly told me that he smiles a lot when he talks to me, could that mean something or am I reading into it too much? Who knows...
I went to Braum's with Maile. We didn't stay long because my dad called and he was like, "Where are you? Well that's a good way to not drive other people's cars." Oh my word, I'm so sorry. I just couldn't help it, I was hungry and I didn't mean to go to crowded public place. For crying out loud I was with Maile. We left before David could take a break, he was sad that he didn't get to talk to us, but I'm sure we'll go up there later on.
I get home and no one is hear but the dogs. It's nice of my dad to be an ass to me, but when it comes to his beloved daughter Erika he'll let her do whatever. I was irritated, I'm such a trust worthy person. Oh well it's not like I wanted to drive your stupid car anyway!
Because we need to raise some money for band banquet we're haveing this valentine's day dance. Well Kendall was in there and he was like, "Theresa buy a ticket." I looked at him and said, "Why?" Kendall: "Because I'll be there. And you love me." It was the greatest thing ever. I wish I had a video camera! Priceless. I think we're going to not have the Valentine's Day dance anymore because no one bought any tickets. We're most likely not going on the band trip, but Mr. Westbrook said that he'd try out a few things and see what happens. Why can't we just make a band out of the people who want to go instead of two? There is a very high possibility that we're going to BOA next year. YES! I want to see Drum Corp shows, there is one down in Texas in July that I want to go see.
The whole thing with Karensa has gotten funnier and funnier. We've now become a real person and yet the evil comments have stopped. I go there and read what people write and laugh. Karensa was there at the basketball game and everytime I looked at her I just laughed. Speaking of Garrett put Megan Sullivan's ABC gum in his hand. Ugh it was so gross! Maile said that I sound better than Ivan - he's third chair - a great compliment.
"Rub your belly for luck!" - I shall miss Garrett a whole lot.
