Maybe, just maybe

I'm not sure, but I hope to find out soon

Yeah we don't have school tomorrow and I'm so happy! I get to sleep in tomorrow, you don't know how much I need sleep. Sleep is a long lost friend of mine that I haven't seen in a good while.

I haven't updated, yeah sorry about that. My thing is everytime I get on the computer I get occupied with looking for a car then I have to go to something. I was going to update tuesday, but I had to go to the basket ball game for Tiffany. It's a good thing I went too because there were only three other clarinets. I didn't really watch the game, I read my book for english class - "Their eyes were watching God". Sarah and I talked about marching season next year and we came up with a few ideas for our section, nothing is set in stone, just thoughts. All I know about the games is that we lost both.

Found out that we are getting Mr. Johnson's 6th hour class added onto ours. It's cool because it's only around eight other people, but then it makes our class so small. We had our little ice cream social today and it was pretty cool, when the bell rang we had a full class leave the room. It feels a little weird.

Lately I've become really interested in History. I'm not sure if it's because my only choice is to pay attention or if War is really that interesting to me. What pisses me off is that we have all these questions on our section reveiws, we never had it like that we had around 15, not it's around 40 questions!! We have an open book test monday and I'm going to study this weekend so I think I'll do well on it.

We're taking notes the old way in anatomy. I'm happy about that because now I feel like I have all the information that I need and I'm not missing anything. I've been studying my notes every night I have them and I'm almost finished with my color plates.

Psychology is starting to get really interesting, I'm actually really absorbing everything we talk about. We watch movies, take tests and discuss everthing. I'm pretty sure this is a class I'll really enjoy taking during my college years.

We're doing grammer packets as well as reading that new book and I'm trying so desperately to keep my A in that class. It's so hard because I think I'm doing things right, but when we grade them I see that I didn't. So when we get extra credit papers to do I will do them to get some extra points. The book we're reading - "There Eyes Were Watching God" - is a really good book, I can really connect with it because it's about a girl who was raised by her grandma who doesn't really know that she's colored and how that affects people's preception of her. I was raised by my grandma and I was raised to not worry about someone's skin color, but their personality.

I'm doing great in Math, I got a 92 on my six weeks exam. That's really good considering that I didn't feel like I was as prepared as I thought I should've been. I did better than Garrett, but wait I always do. I advise any juniors to take math their senior year and if you're not for AP take Math Analysis with Mrs. Schwarz, she's a GREAT teacher. I just wish she was my calculus teacher. CRAP! Oh well if I need help I told her I'd go visit her.

Band, I'm getting really ticked off at Megan, she doesn't play! Seriously if you're going to be fourth chair at least fucking TRY! Today it was me for a lot of the time because Jourdan didn't play much, she's got braces and they hurt her sometimes. All I could hear was me, no one else and when I dropped out to get a breath, no one else was on the part. I'm about to just tell Jourdan to challenge Megan, then I'll challenge her because I'm sick of this shit. Another thing, if you don't know how to play your music, just FAKE IT! Don't sit there and finger the wrong notes, it makes the rest of us sound bad. Mr. Smith was mad at me because I didn't offically volunteer. I couldn't make it to the after school meeting thing so I didn't volunteer, he was like, "You could've been a greeter." I felt bad because I know he really counts on me becuase I get stuff done. But he had more than enough people volunteer, most of whom just wanted to get out of class, so I couldn't be a greeter. Although I was excused the rest of the day, I stayed in class though.

So I've been online searching for cars and tuesday I found a really great Cavalier and I printed it out. Well my mom e-mailed me around eight different cars within my limits and I found them in my e-mail. So as I was looking at them my mom called and wanted to know if I got them so I told her I did and we looked at cars together - over the computer - then she called to see about the black Dodge Neon SE. It was sold. After awhile we hung up well I was watching tv when she called back and I found out that my dad said that "We found the car." It was my Cavalier!! It was fully loaded and it didn't have that many miles and the price was great. My mom told me I shouldn't get so excited, but we're pretty sure that I'm going to get that car. CROSS YOUR FINGERS EVERYONE!

Right now I'm feeling like the friends that I don't see everyday are drifting away from me. I haven't talked to Wes in awhile and he hasn't e-mailed me back, I see him online, but he don't IM me. Same thing with Ricky, he's on a lot and he doesn't IM. My thing is, they both have jobs and "women" so I don't know their schedules. I don't do anything so it's a 99.9% chance that if they called me I would be free to talk. It hurts me a little because me and Wes were so close, as were me and Ricky.

I figured out what I want to take next year: Band, AP Calculus AB, Pre-AP Chemistry, AP English IV, US Government, and Photography(smester I)/Advanced photograhpy (semester II). I know that I'll need some help in calculus, but everything else is a breeze. I'll be struggling a bit during marching season, but I think I'm making the right choices with these classes. I have to go see my counselor Feb. 25th. So when that happenes I'll let you know.

Jessica's brother Andrew is cool, but he won't be marching with us because he's a swimmer. That sucks because he's a great bass clarinet player and if he wanted to play clarinet I would've helped him so much. If he had marched at least I could've marched with a Hall everyone of my marching years. I'm sure Jessica will visit and see a few of our games.

Right now I'm watching Ferngully, I haven't seen that movie since I was like 5 or 6 years old. It's actually a really good movie, I just didn't understand it when I was younger. I watched the Nightmare Before Christmas this morning, that is my ALL TIME FAVORITE Disney movie. Tim Burton is my favorite director, I love his concepts and I can't wait until his version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory hits theaters. I wonder if Addison will become a famous director?

I watched Brink perform today and I saw Scott, Addison and Kendall working concession. It was funny because I said "Hi" to Scott and Addison, and Addison was like, "Hey look, it's Kendall." He knows I think Kendall's a fox! Hahaha, I'm not the only one, Diana thinks so too. Anyway Brink was good, but not as good as everyone kept making them out to be. Jessica took me home.

Sometime before Sunday I'm hoping to go to Target so I can pick up a birthday gift for my little sister. Her birthday is Feb. 27th so I need to hurry and Garrett's is the 25th. Speaking of Garrett he wrote Jessica the sweetest letter of recommendation. It was the best one I've ever read and I hope that I can get one as great as that from Alison or Mr. Smith next year.

I think I've written enough.
