Uhhhhh yeah! Lovely last blog hahaha, I think Anna and Marc were having fun...that was him doing the french lyrics and stuff by the way. Anyway, updateness time!
Ok let's see if Jen can remember much from this week. I don't remember much about Monday and Tuesday that I really want to blog about. Wednesday we had State Contest for band, so we got to miss almost all of school. We didn't play very well though lol...we did better than usual on the march but the two grade pieces...yuck. We had what Mr. Rowe called a "hiccup" in one of them haha...where one of the drummers got ahead of Mr. Rowe and its a drum solo thing and we all come in at the same time to play one short note and then it goes back to drums...Well, half the band followed Mr. Rowe and the other half followed the drums. Yeah, so that was kinda bad...and a lot of other little things...and the clarinets, who Mr. Rowe yells at constantly to play louder, were way too loud of course...We did well in sight reading though :-) Then we came back to school and had second lunch and then just band class, which was a mostly-free period, though part of the time we went in the auditorium...and heard Mrs. Winters teach the Drama class about reading music lol. So Wednesday overall was pretty nice...especially since I was with Corey all that time^^
Thursday...mmm...Math midterm, which I ended up with a 96 on...and she dropped the lowest two quiz grades afterall because everyone passed the midterm in our class, but I still don't have a high enough average for an A. Growl. Less than 0.5 away from it! Oh well, just have to work harder next quarter. We had another free period in band...though that time I didn't get a chance to spend nearly enough time with Corey...but uhh I learned about gas milage of cars that I'd never heard of! One of two of you will get that...yeah.
Today...not too bad in school; we had a cool lab in science that let us go outside in the cross country trail most of the period and our group finished a while before some of the others...and then Mr. Thurston became very interested in a plastic bag...so Ashley/Ashleigh (I don't know how she spells it lol), Steven, and I just kinda sat on the bleachers and talked lol. Sub in padeia because of the AOIT field trip...So I finished All Quiet on the Western Front, yay for no more bloody icky stuff for a while. Math was normal, we got to play Pirates of the Carribean in band again...much fun...even though Mr. Rowe wouldn't stop in time to let me and Ruth do our challenge, which wasn't helped any when my reed broke while I tried to play for him lol. So we get to do it over on Monday at lunch...which will be very interesting since that's the first time I'll get to play my clarinet after my braces come off.
After school, Corey came home with me^^ and we 'watched' The Return of Jafar because he tricked me into picking the movie twice in a row :P Lol even when I threatened him with Madeline he still wanted me to pick...yay Disney! So a much fun, wonderful afternoon <3 and then Corey had to go to his dads :-( but I was glad to get to see him for a while before he left.
Tonight we gathered at Matt's house...most people played a lot of DDR but I actually didn't do any lol. Instead, Anna, Marc, and I decided to get online and IM random and non-random people haha. We kept fighting over the keyboard, and with three of us between two chairs and one keyboard, it made things very interesting...and really hard for everyone else to read I'm sure hahaha. Wow we're such geeks...we get together to talk to people on computers. That's sad, but it's fun too haha. And obviously Anna blogged for me lol...oh and James looked like he had a siezure on the floor because he claimed that while DDRing, he was molested by the fern. Yesh, very interesting night. The only really bad thing was the large amount of knives/cutting references...There seem to be more and more of those lately. They all know how much it bothers me, every one of them that was there tonight, yet they love to take the sharp side of a knife blade and run it over the skin on their hand, claming it won't cut...guess what, sometime's they do, as some of them have found out before...I swear some of them like to see my reaction...guys, that's just sick, I would never ever intentionally put you all through flashbacks like that...I don't know why I'm saying that here, the person I'm referring to doesn't ever read this...for the others...just...you've seen what my reaction is like, through this blog if nothing else, if you've known what I've talked about in the past enough to understand the hidden messages. There's a good reason I gave up psychology, and there's a good reason for me trying to not get reinvolved in it, so can we please not torture me by reminding me of the past...especially with knives...I've been so much happier lately that I have been in a long time, despite all the stress from school and other things...maybe it's selfish, but at this point I don't much care, I just want to keep my happiness. It's one thing if someone needs help...but it's a while different story when you just teasingly play with a knife. Only one of the recent comments has been by someone who doesn't know my feelings about that stuff...and though it probably bothered me more than any of the others, I can't blame her for it since she didn't know...If I didn't know what happens, I could laugh at things like that too I guess...It just brought up some bad memories, old and recent. Urmm...yeah. I know some people might be lost by now, so I'll summarize with a very basic concept which I hope you have all grasped by now: I don't like knives.
Overall, the week's been a little stressfull...I forgot to talk about the crazy dance classes...Joe's not in jazz anymore we think -phew- and my tap teacher is crazy and wants us in the same formation the entire dance, except for the end where the front line is at the back, the midle line at the front, and the front line in the middle...but that's hardly any time at all...it's just going to look really borring. Anyway, other stuff for the week...I found out I have to take Honors Physics next year because there isn't an honors class for Physical Science, and I still refuse to take Chemistry in any form. Zach and Matt are the only people I know of taking physics next year, so that should be interesting to see...I bet it's mostly seniors. Still debating about what to do for English (AP or Honors) and I want to look up some things about math because people have given me different reports on what to do and the order of things. So I'm definitly stressed about school, from this year to next year to college. Then there's just some other stuff I get to worry about...but that's what I'm here for :-)
Well, the words have been blury on the screen for like 30 minutes so I think it's Jen's bedtime haha...probably won't be on much tomorrow since I've got Godspell at 4:30-7 and then I'm going late to my friend Vaishnovi's birthday party...I haven't seen her since November!!! Ahh!!! And I haven't seem Mahitha, who's also going, since December and that was only for a few minutes, and before that it was with Vaishu in November. I don't know who else is coming except Amena...but this should be much fun. Then Sunday I have Godspell and then youth...which Corey will be back for ^^ <3 It's amazing how much I miss him right now...and always really.
Ok, actually off to bed now...sorry if this entry is really repetative; I'm tired lol. Oh and someone explain this blog nazi war thing to me!
