(no subject)
friday night, no plans. though I'm not really complaining since I'm a little tired and I really didn't have anything to do anyway. I was gonna go to the football game, but its raining and gross. tal's at a concert, renee's at her brothers concert, I was gonna call robin but I kinda never got around to it :X ah well.
so another week of school went by, and this one was a lot better. my schedule got fixed, got dr. sion for english, and I moved into cowell's history class...which I was upset about at first but quickly realized that it was gonna be a pretty smooth ride, haha. and I'm in a gym class with gina, abby, victor, lizeth...great fun. today I had an AWESOME conversation with victor, abby, and lizeth in gym. we were talking about like...relationships, haha. god it was so fun.
I think me and victor are gonna get closer this year, I just have this hunch. we've been talking a lot from the beginning of this school year to now, and...I dunno. I'm happy about it though. :D I'm getting closer to lizeth too. haha, I brought up lizeth and victor's "relationship" in 8th grade today. good times man.
I'm out of that awkward "holy shit I'm a junior" phase, pretty much...and I think this year is gonna be really great. I'm really excited.
so needless to say I'm pretty content with life right now, haha. I'm making a pact with myself to start reading and writing more. last week I read the five people you meet in heaven, it was really good, and the other day I read looking for alaska, which was AMAZING. I started lovely bones too, which I'll finish soon hopefully.
there's not too much homework this weekend...history thesis though. -_- gonna need to put effort into that. and I need to start working on the collage I volunteered to do for my group for english, haha.
mmm I'm just really relaxed as of late, and I love it. I haven't been listening to as much music as I usually do...I've been reading and playing video games most of the time, haha. whatevaaa.
and to end this journal, well...it's 9/11. it's been 8 years now. everyone has these stories about how devastated they were when they found out when they were younger but...that's not how it worked for me. I remember distinctly the night after it happened, I was having trouble sleeping. usually I just toughed it out, but I REALLY couldn't sleep, so I decided to go downstairs and see my parents. the crash was on the news. I didn't really understand how serious it was at the time. I thought a plane crash was something like a car crash, yeah it was terrible, but it happened frequently and just happened to make the news. I was intrigued by it more than I was disturbed or shocked. I remember school the next day--3rd grade, I believe--we all played in the schoolyard like we normally did. then we lined up to go inside. I looked at my teacher and said "ms. mckenna, did you hear about the plane crash?" she just looked at me with an emotionless face and said "yes, now go inside." it didn't really phase me at the time, though. I remember 9/11/2002, though. the year anniversary. I was in my enrichment class and dr. m brought it up and we discussed it for a little bit...that's when it really hit me. I'll never forget EITHER of those two days.
never forget.
