you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost...
well, i haven't updated this in something like a month? whatever. i decided to check mal's, and i guess her update inspired me to update? oh, and i don't feel like studying yet. or writing an english poem on metaphors, either.
so, where to start? um. nothing's new. i'm still class vicepresident, thank god. that whole election and campaign thing was way too sneaky and too close for comfort. BUT, i won, so now the class will still have money in its treasury, which is all i cared about. i didn't want to win for the title, or for college appeal, or just to win. i wanted to keep helping the class and making a difference, raising money for us. unfortunately, not many people understand that that's what officers do, so they vote for whoever. oh, and the administration sucks, and lets just about anyone run. people who fail classes, sit in in house, go to jail, yeah, theyre all allowed to run against people who do all their work, put all their effort into it, and havent ever even set foot into inhouse. cool.
well...i thought i was over johnny damon, able to put the whole thing in the past, and move on. but last night proved that i'm not. i'm still so outraged that the organization basically pushed him out the door. and i still cant believe that people are giving me shit for supporting him. i was kind of expecting him to look ugly in a yankees uniform. that would have been easier for me. but no, he has too keep looking good. so there goes that. i think that the red sox hate when you say you want to stay here. johnny loved it here, he wanted to stay. we all knew that. so what do they do? offer him the same thing as edgar renteria (hello, slap in the face) and then hold a conference to discuss NOT resigning him. WOW. then bronson arroryo wanted to stay here too. they ship him off to cinicinnati for some guy named billy bob or wily mo or something stupid like that. i saw someone at school yesterday wearing a coco crisp shirt. i wasn't ready for that.i didn't even know they made those yet. so i guess soon i'll be seeing a damon yankees shirt, too. hold on. can we say that again? a coco crisp shirt. it sounds like a shirt advertising a cereal for christ's sake. ok ok so before the game, they interviwewd johnny, discussed his time in boston, then highlighted the top 10 moments. as if just seeing him play for the yankees wasnt hard enough. see for me it isn't that he's on the yankees that upsets me. i'd have been equally upset if he were on the devil rays. maybe more, actually. and it's not that i'm upset with him for leaving. i'm upset that red sox allowed it to happen. they didnt do anything to keep him here. i'm just sad that he's gone, that he's not here to play for us. maybe people will someday realize that the red sox didnt want him, and thats why he left. maybe i'll get over this eventually. but maybe not. definitely not, actually.
tennis starts tomorrow. actually, it stared monday. but there are so many freshmen that tryouts for them have taken three days. so the rest of ours start tomorrow. hopefully i won't get cut. i miss going to sports after school. i miss field hockey, actually. not indoor. i hated indoor, so i stopped going. but outdoor, smack in the middle of the season. nice enough weather, 3 games a week, easy practices. spaghetti suppers. the field. i miss tennis from last year, i'm excited for it to start again.
we've picked our classes for next year. which means, you're pretty much a junior now. weird me out much? yep. i'm kind of already ready for junior year to be over, though. ap history. that will be fun. not. possibly advanced american literature. ew. i am not taking that class and slaving over all that work if it doesnt even give me ap credit. chem and precalc? let's not even talk about those. i don't think i have enough time to fit anything into senior year. ap english. spanish 4. gym. psych. those are my definites. 3 credits. 4 left to fill. i could half ass it and take 8 half year courses and just send my applications to the you suck university. or i could take greek 3 and ap bio and world studies. no math. which colleges kind of, um..hate? yep thought so. and i was going to take government. drop greek? but it's another 3 years of a language, and its honors, and they love that. friggin what do i even want to do??
there's a party coming up. a black and white party. april 7. wanna talk about how excited i am?
i want it to be summer. i need it to be summer. i hate this cold weather, although today's fairly nice. and it rains too much in the spring. i just want summer. tennis everyday, beach, pool, movies, late nights at katies just hanging out. ice cream trips. tank tops. flip flops. SUMMERRR<3
well, i think that's enough for now. i have a lot i should be doing. like studying for a huge test on hercules tomorrow. or my spanish test on the preterit/imperfect tenses. or typing a health story on bullying like i told the kid im working with i would. or doing my english poem. oh wait. i pretty much don't even take english anymore.
gahhh, i have harv's final in a few weeks. and then the ap euro exam the next week. oh, shoot me.
oh ya. i got a laptop :) and i am in love with "bad day" by daniel powter.
the oc is on tonight, thank goddd.
