boston was so much fun, like everyone else has already said. it was fun to go away with practically the entire class (400/565). so many funny things happened and i took way too many pictures. i loved my bus (#7!) because no one was annoying or mean and all of our chaperones were fun. highlights of the trip include: the blue man group (2nd row seats- we had to wear ponchos. at one point when massive amounts of toilet paper were burying me, i nervous laughed for about 10 minutes and i couldn't stop), duck tour (biff was hilar and really weird), harvard square (scary "college" kids who were the most extreme liberals ever & urban outfitters), the dance, and quincy market. i can't really compare this trip to the leadership trip because they were so different. the whole bus separation bus wasn't great but there's nothing that could be done about it.
i really reeeeeally like senior year so far. everyone always says senior year is the best year and i can understand why (8th grade is hard to beat though). i'm almost done with finishing applications which will be a huge weight off my shoulders. i saw matt nathanson and death cab for cutie in october and both shows were soo good. it sounds lame, but i really think because of the trip our class has become more unified. i've reconnected with people i haven't talked to in years because everyone has the mutual feeling that it's the last year we'll ever see or talk to some people in our lives. i hate finding myself feeling all sentimental. i think i'm doing a good job EPP-ing though because i know my life is never going to be the same after this year.
college. well, i'm applying to a bunch of schools because i don't have a top choice and i don't know what i want to do. my farthest school is university of san francisco and my closest is geneseo. i doubt i'll get into geneseo and unless i suddenly get a huge urge to go out to california, i probably won't go to usf either. the majority of schools i'm applying to are popular among fairport kids so it'll be interesting to see where i end up/who i end up going to college with next year. also, i hate how people judge you based on only hearing what schools you're applying to.
i started watching grey's anatomy this season and i am in love. i now understand all the hype about the show and why kennedy's so obsessed. i'm a closet OC fan because no one seems to care about it this season. yeah, marissa's dead but everyone else is still alive! the show is kind of (really) lame, but oh well. i'm a faithful fan. adam brody would be proud.
each paragraph keeps getting shorter. i should go pack.
