last night was adorable. the dance was 2374987239847 x more fun than i thought it'd be, and i was actually really excited for it, so therefore. then scott and benita picked me up from the school and we went to the faint show, whose stage effects and presence were even cuter. plus, they covered psycho killer by talking heads, and encored with take me to the hospital.
i'm so happy with this stage of life. i don't think enough of you realize how great it really is to be our age. our only REAL responsibilities are keeping grades up, taking out the trash, and not doing too many drugs. our greatest concerns are how to get more money from our parents, if soandso likes us why/why not, and our hair. we don't have to worry about bills, kids, or sagging boobs. a lot of kids think they're going to abandon their current and supposedly miserable lives for some awesome future, with a cool job and cool things, but really it's more like minivans and fat spouses. not that i think these are really "the golden years", but i'm pretty sure life will never be this simple and optimistic again. right now, our lives are basically doing a little homework, hanging out with friends, and having parents pay exorbitant amounts of money to dress us up and take pictures.
i could honestly be a professional teenager for the rest of my life.
