"He and she had never spoken of things that happened to them, but only of what they thought and of what they would do...She looked at him silently as if a voice within her were saying: Not the things that are, but the things we'll make...We are not to be stopped, you and I...Forgive me the fear, if I thought I could lose you to them-forgive me the doubt, they'll never reach you-I'll never be afraid of you again." - Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
This year is one of pursuing, already.
Today is my day to sit back and chill for a while.
Maybe a new job, jazz voice lessons, actually doing really well in school, hopefully drivers training in a few weeks?
Feels like there's a lot to think about.
I haven't really had much time for anything lately, just been appreciating Brendan and my really good friends more and more.
I have some really good people for friends.
School is funny in a rediculous sort of way. I get really excited on the rare occasion someone says sorry if they run into me in the hallway or holds the door for me, it's pretty pathetic, actually.
People I don't know don't really smile at me in the hallway if I smile at them.
People that I still don't know in my classes don't really seem interested to talk or help me pick up my pencil if i drop it over the side of my desk with a bar there so i try to reach over the bar then my desk almost falls and it slams back down on the floor, so I have to get up and walk around my desk and feel stupid when really they were sitting 2 inches from it and watched the entire thing, that's not that fun.
Maybe I forgot that girls who make fun of other girl's clothes and appearance when they don't even know them existed.
Tell the Challenge Day folks I'm sorry but I can't change the general attitude of this school, I think we need help.
Yesterday I sat in geometry, the class I have with all sophomores, and listen to 2 guys exchanging what they thought were hysterical ways to beat someone up, it probably lasted 2 or 3 minutes, just them laughing and having new awesome ideas about ways to hurt someone.
I couldn't even listen to it, who are these people? who taught them that was okay? and who's going to teach them it really isn't?
