and it's on the table, the mouths are choking, but i'm going hungry . . .
Dear Zombie Sir Francis Drake,
Grawr, life sucks. Not only do certain people not realize that I am mad at them when I say "Fuck you" and then walk off (seriously, she just walked up to me later and started talking to me like nothing had happened; really irritating), but I still need two more people for the Gay Straight Alliance I'm starting at school next year to be an actual club. The last group of people that I talked to had one person who considered it, but no one else even considered it, which was irritating, because I thought one of them in particular would join, seeing as on Friday he said something about how it's one thing to care about an issue but how most people didn't actually do anything about it. Bloody hypocrite. And school sucks this week, because I'm so damn busy and I just got back from the Chorus Disney trip. ;_; I'm finally getting inducted into Mu Alpha Theta tomorrow during lunch; I have wanted to be in that club since I found out that it existed (it's a math geek club that you only get into by special invitation). And Wednesday thru Friday I'm going to be working on a test in Chemistry (in class Thursday and Friday and during my free period on Wednesday and Friday) that is basically the culmination of everything we've learned all year, which is just dandy because I still don't quite understand Thermochem or Electrochem, which we're learning now. And apparently on Thursday I'm getting some academic award thingy, but I don't know what it is yet.
So the Disney trip was pretty awesome. We sang at the Rotunda in America in Epcot, which was cool, because the acoustics there are AMAZING. And then we got to spend the rest of the day in Epcot before going back to the hotel and chilling for a few hours. Then we had a workshop from 9:15 PM to midnight where we sang songs from the Lion King. We also did some Mickey Mouse song where we had to sing and dance at the same time while they recorded us, and then on our final go-through, MICKEY MOUSE SHOWED UP. YEAH. We all freaked out so much. Then the next day we went to MGM for most of the day, where Devon and I hung out with the theater people that she sucks up to, which was mostly fun. Except they went on Tower of Terror like four times, during which I waited outside, and the last time there was hardly any shade left to sit in. And we went on a grand total of three rides (one of which I went on) and saw the Ariel show. But we were so hyper and random that it was still fun.
But thanks to how things happened today, I'm kind of mad at both Devon AND the theater people she sucks up to, except the ones that are nice (Ashton) or weren't there when things went down (Tess, Lillian, Weatherly, etc.). So basically I'm getting people to join the GSA during lunch like I've been doing for the past week, and I see that there's a large group of theater people over by the Mini Theater. So I figure that they'll be nice to me since it's soon enough after the Disney trip for them to still remember my name (most of them went back to ignoring me a week and a half after I made the theater seniors CDs). So Devon won't go over with me to talk to them about the GSA, because in her opinion I need to learn to talk to people on my own. On Thursday I walked to up several random people, two of which I didn't actually know, in order to get them to join the GSA, so that's really not that much of a problem. She knows this, or she would if she paid attention to anything I say. I think the real reason is that she doesn't want to appear to be associated with the GSA in front of the theater people she sucks up to, because if they think she's gay, she'll have no chance of one day becoming one of them. That just seems so pathetic to me, especially after a few minutes before she had agreed to go talk to them with me, because she knows them way better than I do and naturally they'd be more willing to listen if someone they knew better was there. So William and I went alone to talk to them, after I basically said "Fuck you" to Devon and walked off. And I explained all about the GSA and whatnot, and while Ashton laughed at this one joke I made (about how in the GSA we'd have a gay old time; yeah, I had that one all planned out, hooray for puns), pretty much everyone else was totally silent like they were pretending not to be there. But then Beau said it sounded cool and that he would consider joining. And I thought I'd have some trouble getting him to join, him being the Senate President and rather needing his reputation (although the rumor about him cheating in the election would do a lot worse to his reputation than the GSA). Yet the one person I had expected would join said nothing. As in the guy who had talked about how a lot of people hide behind the appearance of an activist while not actually doing anything about the issues they care about, during the Darfur presentation on Friday. So I'm really ticked at him now for being such a stupid hypocrite.
This week needs to get better ASAP, especially since I'm supposed to find out whether or not the teacher I asked will be the advisor person for the GSA.
