Today I stayed home from school. My bones really hurt (I know that doesn't sound possible, but it's really how I felt), and recently I've been having some intense headaches and sleepiness. My mom says she thinks it's malnourishment, and my dad nods his head and lets her do the talking. They do the whole "you really should eat more and have more protein" routine. I'm all :yes, I know: But honestly, I think I was just sick today. My parents read into my life too much. The rest of my day was boring and nice. I slept for most of it. When I woke up, I realized that when people ask me how I spent my high school years, I'll probably answer "I slept through those years." It truly amazes me how many naps I can take and how late I can sleep in. I don't want to remember being a teenager as a series of naps though. The problem is energy; I simply don't have any of it.
In other news, my NYSSMA clarinet solo is coming along. It's still pretty shakey on the middle section which goes muchmuchmuch faster than any sane human being wants to play it, and I still have to work on a few of the notes, some of which go higher than a hippie at Woodstock. But I'm excited to be done with NYSSMA after this year. I will finally be set free from this horrible festival I've done every year since I was eleven. Why do they even call it a festival? For me, the word "festival" implies happiness. They should call it the " NYSSMA gathering of moody competitive teenage musicians who only want to get high rating to get into important groups." although, I suppose that would take much longer to say. meh.
Tomorrow I am back to school, and back to badminton in gym, which I'm actually pretty stoked for. Nick Hartman may think he owns the net, but just wait, I WILL kick his ass. :-)
