january.. what's that?
wow, it's like i blinked and another month went by. i guess i've been too busy to notice or something - which is odd, because i don't remember doing much. in any case, i'm just glad to get the year done quicker. i'm ready to get out of here.
i remember very little prior to this weekend, so i imagine all i've been doing is schoolwork. unless, of course, i've just been getting so drunk every night that i can't remember what i've been doing. that's doubtful though. i think i'll just ignore the fact that there was a month between this entry and my last and start my update with friday.
friday at school was the ring ceremony for the juniors. traditionally, all the teachers are pretty lax, so it doubles as senior skip day too. of course, i had to be one of the few die hards who came to school anyway. there were about thirty others who came (which is actually quite a bit considering there are a hundred total), and most of the day was spent either talking or playing various games. during my physics class, there were only three other people with me, so i decided to head up to mr. aaron's room. he had a gamecube hooked up to the projector and everyone was in there playing mario kart. after school, i went to the mall where i found all the missing students. another mystery solved.
the next day, instead of enjoying the weekend like normal people, i decided to use my saturday to go to a science bowl competition at usc. it's my hope that the sacrifice will appease the admission gods at tech. we lost all our rounds, but i wasn't expecting too much anyway. we had no practices and half the team was recruited only a week earlier. still, despite the utter and humiliating failure, i had fun. i got to hang out with some cool people, and i got free cookies too. this week, i'll be spending my friday in a math competition at asu. i know what you're thinking, and yes, i really am just that cool.
sunday was supposed to be spent finishing up a to do list i had made, but i somehow didn't start on it until about ten at night. after finishing one thing on it (reading a hundred pages of crime and punishment and doing twenty five questions on it), it was about three o'clock, so i passed out for a couple hours. considering that one of the things i had to do was apply to a college, this did not work out too well. after waking up, i tried my best to rush through my morning routine and go to the computer to apply to uga. i started at six, but i didn't finish until eight, only an hour short of the nine am deadline. if it wasn't clear by my excessive lack of updates, i think it's obvious now why i was voted "most procrastinative" in my class.. i ended up missing my bus, but considering no one seems to care whether i go to school or not, nobody would agree to drive me. the rest of the day was spent finishing things up on my list and taking a nice nap. it was a wonderful day.
the other day, alisha mentioned that a lot of the people around here use xanga rather than livejournal. after searching around for a little while, i'd have to say that i agree. while looking for people in the augusta metro area, i found various people from school and just about every single person at my church (they actually have there own community on there). although i livejournal is infinitely better, i think i'm going to make a xanga account too. i'll just post the same entries, minus anything that says i'm gay.
yay, i'm glad i updated. i feel accomplished :).
[edit] i forgot to mention this, but if anyone wants a gmail invite, please just ask. i don't care if i know you or not. i've somehow acquired a hundred invites, and i have absolutely no need for them. [/edit]
