well, the night before prom, it's almost getting late and considering the long day i have coming up, i should get as much rest as possible before tomorrow. i had a long day today also, and tomorrow is going to be a great end to a long week of planning trying make tomorrow night as magical as possible.i went to classes today and really had only one thing on my mind, try to guess what it is, i bet you already know, if you don't, you really are a dumb bastard. well, it was prom that was on my mind all day, duh. i was trying to get as much done as possible so i wouldn't have to worry about it this weekend because knowing me, i will probably be too exhausted or lazy to even try to do the work.
third period was an assembly on having a safe and sober prom, i'm not going to drink, i don't drink...anymore at least. i'm a good little boy...ok, that sounds stupid but i won't do anything the least bit risky so prom will be very fun and innocent. so with that said, i ditched the assembly to just chill in a classroom with nick. ended up finding out the name of that cute girl i keep noticing in that classroom, but she's freshman and although she's really cute, she kinda has the same facial features as me but at the same time looks eerily like elle, which is really weird even to a freak like me. well, whatever, i'm not going to get with her, gotta focus on prom. rest of my classes, boring, michelle received the roses delivered to her and she tried to find me as soon as possible to give me a hug, she loved them, i hated them, they didn't bother to cut off the thorns, blegh.
had lunch at street dogs with alex otherwise known as bob (dunno how that came about and i've honestly forgotten on more than one occasion that his name was alex because i called him bob so much), awesome chili dogs, (hehe, i just accidently typed gods). got back to school and went to track offseason practice with one thing on my mind and that was to get the rest of the preparations for tomorrow finished.by four we went to the florist to get a corsage because i was originally going to get a corsage for free but that fell through and i had to scramble to find somewhere to make a corsage, i honestly was stressing over how long it was going to take, how much, and where i was going to get it done. the place we went to was reasonable in all three of those areas; they'll have it finished by tomorrow, good price, and the place is right outside my neighborhood. then to go pick up my tux out in little saigon.daniel, bob, and bu-dog and i all went to the same store so we thought we'd go pick them up together too. daniel and got there first because i am the master of the road in my acura. we tried on the tuxes and i look decent in mine, daniel looks much better in my opinion because he's able to fill out the shoulders of his jacket better than i am, either that or my coat's shoulders are too pointy, i don't like pointy shoulders, if you have pointy shoulders, you ought to be punished somehow. they got my shoes wrong but daniel liked my shoes and i was supposed to get his so we switched, although we have different shoe sizes, it works out fairly decently. daniel and i went to my restaurant and we ate noodles for free, shit shot a little, left and the whole time after that we shit shot a lot. hey, that rhymes. he's going to help my wash the acura tomorrow because we're going to be taking that car to prom instead of my new lexus.i was really angry yesterday when my parents told me that i couldn't take the lexus, i had planned so much and the changed my plans like crazy, well not really but it makes some things harder, for example, i can't drive ruth now after i offered to drive her and her date because she had done so much work to plan the dinner and afterparty for us all. i got it taken care of but i feel bad. back to me, i was angry as hell and cussing up a storm...in my mind and on aim and icq at least. i didn't want to give my mom any shit because she had just gotten home from a whole day of work and she had a headache, so i just blamed my dad for it all. i guess i was overeacting, which doesn't make much sense because i wasn't really acting out my anger, but being angry is a reaction in and of itself isn't it? anyways, back to the point, i realized today that it wasn't that big of a deal because th acura is still a really nice car and michelle said that she honestly doesn't care what car we take, i've already taken so much effort to make the night as good as possible that a change in car won't change the fact that it will be a really fun night. i have to take the acura but that means we have to make it all nice looking.
i got home and started detailing the interior and i decided to redo the upholstery in the front seats. i cleaned everything up but even though the mess in the car was huge, it wasn't nearly as hard as the upholstery. the passenger side took me half an hour and the driver seat was a bit faster because i had already done the passenger and i understood how to do it better. granted that this was at seven in the evening and i had spent the whole day out and about, i really need to take a shower. i finished very late and took a shower, daniel and i will either wash it ourselves or take it to a car wash tomorrow, it doesn't matter.ok, it was getting late when i started typing this and that was an hour ago, i really should get some sleep now. let's go over our plans again, just because i like talking about it so much.
the fruits of my labor: i'll pick up michelle at 2:30 and we'll exchange our corsage and boutonierres or however you spell it then we'll pick daniel and hanna to go to santa ana mainplace for couple pictures. after that we're going to school to take group pictures and then on to laguna beach where we will have dinner beside the beach at las brisas watching the sunset over the ocean. then to prom and afterwards to the afterparty on the S.S. Victoria taking a cruise around newport harbor until 4:00AM when we will go to serena's newport mansion for a party until the morning. i can't wait.
