today was an A day meaning i had all my hard classes. economics, history, english, spanish one right after the other. well, not really hard. more like intense. Mr. Muniz's AP english is officially the best, and Mr. Muniz rocks my boat. he looks like a mole rat and gives pop quizzes on the colors of his ties. also, we're reading The Stranger by Camus in his class, and i love existentialism. we're also reading Alice in Wonderland, which is probably the best idea he's ever had. because i have him for Critical Thinking on B days too, i have a little slice of heaven to look forward to for each day. except for his cheesy poetry selections. the fact that the first poem we had to analyze for our reader response journals was The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost really irritated me. i hate Robert Frost, i hate all the roads he takes, all the roads he doesn't take, and all the stupid fucking miles he has to go before he sleeps. i have encountered Mr. Frost in EVERY SINGLE FCAT workbook ever assigned to me since the fifth grade. and today we had a cheesy poem written by an angsty teenager in the 70s. it even used the word "fuck". twice.
my economics class also owns, Mr. Rosales and his real-life examples concerning pastelito sales make my life. today i had the good 2nd lunch. i have 2nd lunch both days but on B days i dont know ANYONE. it's full of freshmen and so i just sit with Pamela and Mariana and some other stray seniors. i love Pamela though. after school i went to Starbucks with Cristi and we talked and observed the stereotypical starbucks-goers and laughed and taunted them hysterically. and i actually read a book i wanted to read--Dali's autobiography-- instead of one i was forced to read, which is like all i did this weekend since i had so much work =/ anyway the book is crazy. this guy had some fantastic, silly, genius things in his little head.
tomorrow we start actually working out in Aerobics, and today i bought new running shoes and cute workout stuff. and five lbs dumbells, because 2 lbs is for pussies. i also got a purple lock! i didn't even know they made those. and after i have FRENCH!!! which is, by far, my FAVORITE class. it goes by super fast. Mrs. Lorenzo makes us repeat the words and phrases in French and then she makes us have conversations with each other in front of the class. though for now it's not really conversing. it's more like asking each other's names, counting, and ordering croissants. she said i have a good accent :) and i can now proudly count to sixty, on my own.
the only thing i'm not excited about for tomorrow is math and the stupid bitch girl that took my seat last class. this time i'm fully committed to revenge if she does it again. especially since she lies about it and says it's because she can't see well. and then when there's a free seat like, glued to the board, she doesn't take it.
this weekend i'm going to MEXICO!!! :) to visit Caro ♥ i am so so so so excited to meet her awesome bilingual school friends, her bodyguard (fo real!), and her Dalmatian. and for the fun Mexican partying and tacos and her collection of Miss Sixty shoes that i will borrow because we wear the same size. i can't believe it's only been like three weeks and i'm going to see her. since i'm flying Friday at 2, my mom is taking me out early from school (which only adds more joy to the whole thing). hopefully next-next weekend i can go to Boca and stay at Brian's for a night and have him finally teach me to surf. also on my list of To-Dos is go out to coffee with Mitzy whom i need to meet RIGHT NOW before both of us die without each other's company. and also have a Freddy + Cirrus day.
i'm tired, i miss Nicolas, Brian just texted me, i'm proud that people in my community stopped to pet Elliot when i took him out for a walk. my math binder is beautiful. OH and i'm elated that my mom let me take the car to buy a composition notebook at CVS :) i went all by myself. it felt super grown-up.
