First full week of school.
Not bad. Not good. A little bit of everything.
People annoy me already, but I can't do anything about that.
1st: Chem. Ehh alright, I don't anticipate it being extremely difficult, right now it's just boring.
2nd: Eng. I kinda don't like Mrs. Murphy, she annoys me a bit, but hopefully she'll get better as the year goes on. I don't really like her class, we don't do much and every day is like a suprise. Hopefully that'll get better too.
3rd: Wind. God people suck so much. I miss the years of actually having talented players. Bunches of them. Now we have about 3. Half of the band sucks really bad, and they're stupid and don't listen to directions or anything. So Mr. D gets angry about every 5 seconds. Which is not fun.
4th: Calc. GAHHH I feel so frusterated in that class! I feel so dumb because I don't remember all the stuff we did last year so I can't do about half of the problems. But so many people pass the AP test and I guess pass his class (with a pass/fail) that I think I'm sticking with it.
5th: German. That class is fine. One of my easiest. Plus I love Frau, so it's ok.
6th: Piano. I still love that class. I get to sit undisturbed by retards for a full 50 minutes. All by myself, teaching myself how to play piano. It's beautiful. Except when the idiot kid behind me accidently punches me in the head when he stretches. Which is soooooo annoying.
7th: Gym. I'm starting to like that class because me and Sarah have a lot of fun. We play tennis and we always partner up with Caitlyn and some girl that I totally just forgot her name, and we have fun laughing at each other. Even though me and the other girl are the only ones that can serve, and if we partnered up in the tournament we'd be pretty good, I still pair up with Sarah because we have fun and really that's all I want to care about.
Marching band is.... indescribable. Some days I have a lot of fun because I'll just be in a random mood and goof around. Other days no one has fun and Mr. D yells at us and stupid people are such bad marchers. Honestly, it's not very difficult to count to 16. Or 20. Or any multiple of 4. Or make your left foot come down on every odd number. It just doesn't make sense to me how people are so bad. It's embarassing, quite honestly. They bring the rest of us down. I've been trying so hard this year to set a perfect example. I memorized all my songs, I keep my piccolo at a perfect angle perpendicular to the sideline, I changed my head elevation so I'm not looking straight ahead like every other year, I sprint back to my sets, I try to remember all of the instructions that he gives us, I go to a perfectly still attention when asked, blah blah blah. I try so hard and I don't even know if Mr. D notices. I feel like I've made such an improvement over the past three years, and I don't even feel like he cares or appreciates how hard I'm trying. I know we're in a band of like 50 or something retarded, but along with picking out the bad marching technique or slow moving members of our band, he could pick out people who are doing things exceptionally well. Or maybe I'm not doing things exceptionally well anyways... I don't know.
Fox Run: I love that place. Today was so fun. Even though I was really out of it and people kept asking me why I was acting so wierd. Erik gave me my birthday present, almost a month late. It was a door handle. They make fun of me so much for having my broken door handle, but it's fine to me. And it's funny that that's what he bought me. On the awkward side, he told me that I'm his best friend today. Which is really awkward. I don't know what to say to that, because I always think of Erik in the "work buddy" type way. You know? Someone I talk to at work and we're kinda friends, but not really someone I would hang out with outside of work. We got two new people today, and I really like the girl, Torey, she's a junior at Ladywood and she's really cute. She's not creepy or wierd, she's normal and we have normal conversations. I like her. The guy, on the other hand, is a very large black senior from some school in Redford, and he annoys me an awful lot. He constantly sings loudly and horribly out of tune rap/R&B songs. And I had to work on the line, and he's really slow and messed up a bunch of orders. Which made me really frusterated working with him. And he hugged me for some wierd reason, and asked if he could call me "Finkie". Wierdo!
Wing Station: I had the most visitors ever last night, and I really appreciated it. First Alex and Vuko (?) came in and visited for like five minutes and that was fun. Then later Alicia Kala & Allison visited and made fun of me for yelling the orders back to the kitchen, and then Tommy came and stayed until closing. Then we went back to my house and watched Resident Evil. I miss hanging out with him. It's wierd not having him at lunch & stuff. I got so used to last year, and now that it's different, it's messing with my head.
I still don't know what to think about this year in general. I suppose it'll be ok, it'll get better once band ends and I'll have a bit more free time. And it's improving since people from work keep asking me to hang out with them, and I love those people so much. They're so fun! I'm glad they finally started including me. Now, with the exception of tonight, I pretty much have someone I can always call when I'm bored, and a place to go after work on the weekends. I like it that way.
