Justin & The Choir Banquet

May 17, 2004 14:46

I asked Nicki on a date and she said yes! Then I made sure she understood that it was a real date, and it was with me, and she still said yes!! Wow, I feel kinda honored that she would want to spend time with me. That's cool!

I like her freckles. They are cute.

We're singing a very cool song in choir for Graduation. There You'll Be, by Faith Hill. It's so pretty and it's the perfent song. I try not to think about the lyrics as I sing them, because if I do I get all choked up.

I'm gonna lose it at Graduation.

I was voted Jester for royalty at the Choir Banquet. I think Denessa wanted Jester really bad. She's very cool. I wish I got to talk to her more. I voted for her, at least. And I gave my flowers to her, to kinda share the title of Jester. But I kept the sash. It's fun.

I totally lost it when I said my goodbyes to everyone. I was okay until I got to Paul. I turned and there he was with his hand out, awaiting a handshake. I pulled him in for a hug and said "I'm gonna miss you, Paul." Then the tears came. Could I have picked a gayer time to cry? We continued the embrace for a moment, then I pulled back, shook his hand, and with tears in my eyes, in the manliest voice I could muster, I said "Good workin' with ya this year." He smiled an understanding smile with a tear of his own, and that was that.

Putnam hugged me a hug, then when she was walking away, I heard her burst into tears and exclaim to Carungi "Who's gonna cheer us up at 6:45 in the morning next year?!" Now that did it, and I pulled her back in for a good long crying hug.

I had a lot of those that night, and I have a feeling they're not over. That's fine, because I have plenty more tears.
