Monday
Highlight of the day: Mrs. Whitelock, my Environmental teacher, pulled me and couple other kids out into the hallway before class and invited us to come with her AP Bio class on a 3 day, two night field trip to Smith Island. Smith Island is a really small island in the Chesapeake Bay that has like, 500 people living full-time on it. I've seen it from a distance, and I've even photographed it. But I'd give anything to have that sand under my toes...
It's a Chesapeake studies trip, which makes me excited. That's right up my alley! This trip is perfect: 3 long days away from home, in a place I'd consider heaven...
The downside: It's 125 bucks, and I'd feel like crap asking mom or dad for it.
Dad said we'll see.
I started driver's ed tonight. It was boring, and I only knew about four kids in the whole group, but the instructor is nice (my brothers had him) and I think I'll live.
27 more hours to go...
Robby and I talked when I got home. Small talk...like usual. Nothing major. We laughed, we talked about hockey, and I told him about Jim. It explained my moodiness lately, though I wasn't looking for an excuse. I just wanted him to know. He asked me why I hadn't told him before, and I told him about how no one else really knew at school, and how it hurt so much to talk about it. I'd tear up and fight the tears. It went quiet for a minute, and he asked if I was tearing up then. I told him I was, and I really was.
He gave me a long distance hug, and I smiled.
Robby totally knows how to cheer me up.
I love him for that.
