All-County and junk
wow, this wk. is going by soooo slooooowwww. it feels like it should already be friday.
last friday night, me and lauren went to ben's house to watch a movie cuz we had nothing better to do. we watched Mean Girls. i expected to totally hate it, but it was rather humorous. me and lauren had fun rummaging through his house and breaking things. well, lauren said that she'd take me home but she has to be in by 9. so when it comes 8:00, i tell her and she's said that we don't need to leave til 8:15. now remember, ben lives in granite falls and we both live in hickory, so it's a ways home, but i shut my mouth. well, we leave around 8:15 and we start off. well, it had been raining and just before we pull onto 327 or one of those busy roads, lauren's windsheild fogs up really bad. so here i am, wiping off her windshield as she is trying to drive and merge into traffic. finally, we decide to be smart and just stop until it fogs down. well, it does a little and we decide to just put our windows down so it'll go faster. so she drives me home with our windows down when it's freezing outside and then we get lost! she ends up not dropping me off until 9:00 and she still had to get home. i think she got in trouble with her mom, but we still got some great memories out of the whole situation!
saturday morning, i had to go to glen hilton park for a trash clean-up. yeah, i know what you're thinkin - man, this kid's awesome, i wish i could be like him! well, it was for biology and i needed the grade. so i show up and it's like -25 degrees out there and it's all muddy and wet. so we go out into the park in groups with trash bags. me and sarah burns went out together and brittany and jennelle came along cuz they were late. so we went back onto some trails that i remembered and then they wanted to see the old swing thing that we used to swing on in elementary school. so we get there, and they've torn the freakin thing down! i was upset. that this was buttloads of fun when i was younger. so anyways, we go on and try to find some trash to put into our empty bags and for some reason, we get off the trail. all of a sudden, we're lost and have no idea where to go. we were lost for almost 30 minutes! we went everywhere and remember, we weren't on a trail so we were having to chop down trees like paul bunnyan just to move. then sarah sees a car and thinks that it might be the parking lot for the park so we head towards it. we come into a clearing and we're in the backyard of a house!! here in front of us is this house with a pool and garage and we know that we're way off trail. brittany, who was kinda spazzin out about bein lost, suggested that we go inside and ask them to drive us back but i said no because we'd get in trouble with mrs. justice. so we head back, and eventually we wander back onto the path and find our way back.
sunday morning, i sang in church. whew! that was EXTREMELY nerve-racking. there were tons of people there and i was on tv and everything. i'd never sang in church by myself. last time they asked me to sing, i asked my good friend sarah to sing with me and that was on a sunday night. but, overall, i think i did okay. i didn't mess up my words or anything. people in the audience were telling me that darell (our sound guy) put an echo on me so i was echoing. i kinda noticed it when i was on stage, but i didn't know if the monitors were just giving feedback. anyways, i probably shouldn't tell yall this cuz i wanna see it before anyone else, but it's gonna be on tv on channel 10 on sunday morning at 8:00AM. tune in, if you want--i'm not guaranteeing anything extravagant, though.
we had to write this freakin essay today in english and it was hard as crap! i was just rambling on and on, and once i was halfway through, i realized that i was completely off topic. yeah, it sucks. and we're getting graded on it too! there goes another 75 down in the gradebook beside Mr. Matthew Long! and to make matters even better, we had this test on evolution in biology which i thought i was ready for, but it ended up being hard as crap too. i always think i'm ready for tests and i never am.
today i went to another all-county chorus rehearsal at maiden. i wasn't going to go, but then chelsea really wanted us to so me, muamong, and chris decided to go again. it was fun riding on the short bus! we started acting like retarded kids and waving at all the people in the cars. yeah, we're psycho. i, personally, think that last weeks rehearsal at bandys went much better. it was fewer people and i think we accomplished more. but, i did see lauren, from church, so that was cool.
well, i'd better go cuz i need to go kill this mosquito flying around the room and crashing into my computer screen like a suicide bomber. until next time--don't smoke pot, don't drink and drive, and NEVER, under any circumstances, piss a girl off cuz if you make one mad, the whole clan comes after you!
