Something that always makes me laugh?

Resident Hero's bulletins on Myspace.

Add them as your friend and you will see bulletin titles such as:

Breaking News!!!!!!!! Another life form does exist......

Want to learn the way of the ninja?

If you want a good laugh, you actually CLICK on them...

For the "Breaking News" It reads "He goes by the name JAY NASTY." (Jay is the drummer) and then under it is one of their YouTube videos


Oh god...
They have a song called "Happy (Without Me)," and they taped a Spanish version of it on posted it on YouTube. Oh god, it's hilarious... and actually, not half bad. It sounds like something you'd hear everyday.
>>Happy (Without Me) "en espanol"

Anyway, apparently they (either Jay or Lucas... not Ryan (the singer)) were "excited" about it and made these attention-getting bulletins, and SO, even though it said "WIN A DATE WITH RYAN WHITE" it was actually a clever way to get you to watch the video.
And then they had their first REAL bulletin in a while (written by Ryan) and it was actually titled "Not another Happy Without Me"...well, something like that... you get it. In it, Ryan apologized for the person who made us unwillingly watch the video, and said that his least favorite (of the MANY) was the Win A Date.

And did I ever mention how funny they were at the concert a decade ago?


Resident Hero makes me laugh.

So I was reading THIS. It's this really good writer on Quizilla! talking about her romantic history... so I kinda... wanted to do that, too... and of course, talk about what a horrible V-Day (Singles' Appreciation Day) I had.

Soo.... have been kissed? NO

And... how old am I? 17.

How many boyfriends have I had? One... for 3 months... and I'd rather not talk about it.

Ah yes... and even though I had a boyfriend for THREE months, I've still NEVER been kissed.


Seriously, this all hurts more as time goes by.

I crush on guys. Usually, I have a crush on a boy at any point in time. Sometimes I have 2 crushes at once... I really don't recall having any more than that.

Most crushes last a few months... I guess. Now and then, a guy will come along that I will practically stalk... of course, I am WAY too shy and withdrawn to even have the ability to stalk someone.

In third grade, I immediately crushed on this kid in 3rd grade... on his first day. Who was he? He's known as Stanley McIlwain. Yeah... I had that for quite a while, if I remember, but then I realized how big of a jerk he was (in 3rd grade).

The next guy I remember was.... *drumroll* Skyler! Yes... so I started crushing on him in 7th grade. This really became clear to me in the last 3 months of the school year. Told him in Nov. in 8th grade.... We came close friends after that. I was even invited to his birthday party (on June 7th). Somehow I was allowed to ride his bus to his house that day, and I stayed in his apartment until almost 9. It was heaven and hell at the same time. I remember being ecstatic about what could happen in the couple of hours his mom wasn't home. Nothing happened. I swear on my life.
2nd to the last day before the end of school... 2nd to the last day that I'd ever see him... He was moving to Sacremento. He told us a few months before, and he was excited about it. When he did, Brittni shot me a sympathetic look. She could see right through my encouraging smile. Anyway, he came to school a bit late, and the first thing he did was open his backpack, take out a purple bear, and said "Here," giving it to me. I didn't believe that it was mine, but more like I was holding it for him while he looked through his backpack. I asked. He said he was giving it to me. The bear smelled like him for a good long time. It had a smoky smell (like him), but it was really good smelling, nonetheless. And that's the history of Berry.
THAT night. 8th grade graduation. We had a dance. Brittni literally pushed me towards Skyler and I pushed her back. Soon after, Skyler went to the bathroom and didn't come back (at least to wherever I was). I cried myself to sleep that night.
He said he'd keep in contact with me.
He never did.

In the middle of Freshman year, Jessica comes up to me in Advisory, "Do you remember Skyler?"
"Yeah."
"He says 'Hi'."

Middle of Sophomore year, I decide to find out to the truth to the rumor I've been hearing for the past year. I asked Christina in Computer Graphics, "Hey, was Skyler Hulme gay?"
"Uh, yeah."
Oooh great... Yeah, that made my day better. It was nice to find out. It was NOT nice to find out... HOW long after I last seen him? and HOW long after I kept having dreams and wrote poems about him?

Then... another crush or two later, Tom and I started "going out". I sill believe I went out with him in the first place because he seemed okay and he was into me. About 2 months later, it really hit me that it wasn't going to work out, but I didn't want to break up when I already got his b-day present, RIGHT after his birthday, or during winter break. He saw through my act (well, he knew that I wasn't myself and felt something was wrong) a few days before Christmas, and we broke up.
We never kissed and I THANK GOD we didn't. I just... liked him more as a friend. And when I suggested we should still be friends (to make the break up less painful for him), he completely ignored me, breaking my heart.

I hated the male population for a while, so I didn't crush again until towards the end of Freshman year. Sophomore year. My next big crush (who I'm still crushing on) became infatuation in... April? It was RIGHT after Kevin asked me out. I think I started to really CRUSH to give myself hope and make me feel better after breaking Kevin's heart.
Never talked to him.
I only knew his name after I raided my yearbooks...
Tyler.
Caitlin was friends with one of HIS friends.
Frisbee was friends with one of HIS friends.
It wasn't until June that I was dragged over to the guy's table. And said "Hi," waving, face BRIGHT red, no doubt. The guys said Hi back, and I happened to notice that Tyler turned around in his seat to look at us. Look at ME. And also waved and said Hi.
The second to the last day of school, I asked one of his friends to ask HIM if we could hang out during the summer. He came back saying that Tyler would only say Yes if I asked him myself.
Going to 6th period, I stopped him in the hall and asked him. I forgot to ask his number.
Then, by complete chance, we ran into each other at Border's for the HP: Deathly Hallows midnight party.
The best night of my life.
We eventually exchanged numbers, and he called me once. ONCE. Even though we talked FOREVER. But whenever I called, he wasn't there, or was too busy to talk for a while.

School started, and it soon became apparent that he was into a certain bi named Chelsea.

Not long ago, Matt walked into the pic, ruining my self-esteem. I hate ignoring people. I hate to be mean, but it was completely necessary. He made me want to kill myself, he was so damn clingy.

Tyler had given me mixed signals. One day he seemed to like me, the next he didn't want to have anything to do with me.... After the Jap Festival was over, I caught him in a room, alone. And I asked him if he liked me. He just told me that he had a girlfriend, and they've been going out for a week.
That girlfriend turned out to be Chelsea. Bi-sexual. Obsessed with yaoi and yuri (Cassy is only obsessed with yaoi. She's straight... although perverted).
Apparently I'm not interesting or pretty enough.

Of course, who can forget about Busboy? I recently dove into my yearbooks again. His name's Mike, but I'd rather call him Busboy.... or as all my friends, except Karlie, calls him: Skunk Kid. Okay, I liked him BEFORE he became "Skunk Kid," BEFORE he dyed his "bangs" area WHITE. I found him more attractive after that. And nobody else I've ever seen has their hair like that.
He seems quiet at times, like me. But if you give him the right material to go off of, he will ride the wave. He seems opinionated.
I ride the bus whenever there's a two-hour late start. And like 98% of the time, he sits in the seat in front of me. I know he looks at me sometimes, but it could all be a coincidence. As if HE likes me. He's way too attractive. I'm serious. He is cute.

~~

So, today was Valentine's Day/Singles' Appreciation Day/Singles' Awareness Day/Worst Holiday Ever/Most Overrated Holiday.

I brought Holly (Berry's sister. She's white with a red ribbon. I bought her at Goodwill 2 Christmas's ago) to keep me company. It was a good and bad idea. She made me feel comfortable whenever I held her, and she lessened the pain. But people thought it had been given to me, and some wanted to know WHO had given it to me.

We had Reader's Club this morning. I only saw the back of Busboy's head as I walked past. I saw him again at lunch. He was in the right place to look "right at me" when I bought cotton candy with Michelle (damn, that stuff is good). I saw him walking out of art, but he turned around, thus walking backwards, so I don't think he saw me. Then he wasn't even on the bus. I was kinda pissed.

Let's get to Tyler and Chelsea, shall we?
So, lunch. We were in the hallway. I had Holly with me. Randy touched her and said that mine wasn't as soft as Chelsea's. Chelsea looked on the ground behind her for a second. Sitting there was a really soft-looking white teddy bear, a medium-sized heart container filled with chocolates, and a single pink-red rose.
Hmm.... I wonder who gave those to her?
And THANKS, Randy, for comparing my bear that I bought myself, to the bear that Tyler got for Chelsea.... THANKS. That made me feel really loved.
Tyler had a balloon that said "I (heart) you"
At least I didn't see them suck face or hold hands or anything like that. They just talked.

And Tyler did talk to me today, but it was casual, and nothing special. I ran into him coming out of math, and I asked for a hug, which he gave to me. It made me feel a bit better.


Yes, I have cried today, and yes, I've eaten ice cream (or rather, a strawberry shortcake... homemade, mind you), and OF COURSE I've eaten chocolate. But none of it has made me feel better. The only thing that made me feel better was the journal I have a link to at the beginning of this rant. Be sure to read the document at the end... it's hilarious.

((That's from a Finch song, btw))

You remember that thing about Tyler having a girlfriend? And that I was jealous, wanted to kick her ass a bit, and I felt better than her because she "wasn't at the Festival."

Yeah... well... newsflash.

She WAS there.

I KNOW HER.

He's dating Chelsea Gaddy.

It was a matter of time.
I remember the way he used to look at her. The way he used to touch her. The days she'd be wearing his sweater...

To be honest, I thought he was getting over her.... He doesn't do that stuff anymore. Not even when they're dating. They act the same around each other. Yesterday, before I found out, I was in the vending hall during lunch with the others. Like none of the guys were there. Chelsea, Paula, Cassy, etc. were there, eating together. Where was Tyler? Oh, he was in the commons, spending most of the lunch with his buds.... when he could be spending time with his girlfriend.... When I pointed this out, Caitlin says that it probably shows that it won't last...
I also wonder if he really cares in relationships....
If he was dating me, who he do the same thing? Would he rather be with others than with his own girlfriend?

I feel tears coming on.

~-~-~

Busboy sat behind me and Steph on the bus today. Yay!! ...Right?
Most of the time, when I was looking at Steph, from the corner of my eye, I could see him... turned around in his seat. Sometimes he'd look to the front...
I sort of eavesdropped on his convo.... He curses a fair bit. I wondered who they were talking about. It seemed to be one person they bombed on.
I wondered if he does that for a reputation. To fit in. For me to overhear. Was there a necessary NEED for him to talk like that about someone?
Other people he talked to had the same opinions.

I actually wrote this first late at night on Feb. 5... and... so yeah...:

What makes you get out of bed in the morning?
What motivates you to keep living?

When you think about it, teenagers don't have much motivation. Children are excited for the day and the fun they can have.
Adults for their family.
But what do teenagers have? By that age, fun is harder to come by. We're overworked and underappreciated. It's all about the future. That's all school is.

But what happened to living for the day?
Living like it was the last day?
When you think about it, being a teenager is like the beginning of life. We have to set up and construct what will late become our adult life.
There's no end.
Nobody talks about an end.
They make it sound like we'll live forever.

Teenagers have school, and some have jobs. Few have beginnings of a new family.
Teenagers don't seem to have a proper purpose. We just do. Why? Because we're told so.
Teenagers are filtered by "superiors", to easily pick out the better pieces of gold (for example).
Most people get excited for school because of friends. I usually do. I can always count on having a friend somewhere.

But for the past many year, the co-main base is guys and the hope for love. I lay in bed thinking 'This could be the day... get up,' I always think 'This could be the day he notices me, talks to me... kisses me.'

And even though the end of the day is always a draw between pros and cons, I always keep the hope from before. 'Tomorrow will be the day...' and it still isn't.

If I die tomorrow, won't everything I have done have been in vain?

I did it. I FINALLY did it.
---

Today was the Japanese Festival. This meant I was at school from 1 to (almost) 9. I was absolutely dreading this day. The only thing that would make it worthwhile was: Ramune, friends, seeing Karlie, the POSSIBILITY of seeing Busboy, and Tyler.
Even then the pros didn't outweigh the cons.

Well, now, I'm just about ready to kill myself.

Now, when I say this, I'm NOT being serious. I say it to show how incredibly upset/depressed I am.

Ugh.

I had to spend ALL day at SCHOOL. ON SATURDAY! Setting up wasn't that fun, but I would've preferred that to what we had to do for the rest of the day.
The "doors opened" after 3, unleashing a group of past Japanese students, including Sujin, his girlfriend, and Danny (who looked fine).
Caitlin and I did the Goldfish game thingy.
That means little kids.
I'm not good with kids, really. Well, it's just that they don't seem to like me.

I'm SOOO not doing that again next year. All the sad kids that didn't get fish.

Well, first Caitlin KEPT on complaining how there weren't 50 fish. I know it didn't look like it, so I counted. They stayed pretty staitionary, and I counted no fewer than 42 fish. But then again, apparently there was one still in the bucket... it didn't survive the ride from Jonny's Jungle. I KEPT telling her this, and she KEPT saying how you can't count them because they move so much... well apparently I did it. It didn't help with the anxiety I already had on my shoulders.
Then the nets weren't that well made.
Then we ran out of bags.
Then we ran out of nets.
We just ran out of supplies an hour before the performances started.
I had parents complaining about the nets, apparently not GETTING that it's SUPPOSED to be a challenge to catch the fish.
I had a past teacher practically shoot me down, saying that we should have a person over there, explaining things, because apparently people didn't really get the concept... EVEN though we explained things to them before they even started.... there's not much to explain. Bag. Net. Catch fish. Be careful enough as to NOT destroy the net. And then she gave an example that was COMPLETELY common sense in my opinion, and didn't make much difference in the first place.

And the one time that Caitlin went away to play DDR since we hadn't had many kids for a while, SIX KIDS come over, wanting to play. This was when there was complaining from the parents, which I explained above.

The culture experience should've been an entire hour shorter than it was.
Matt didn't come over to hang with us much. (Yay!)
Tyler came over less.
Can you tell that I'm not happy?

I've kept my eye out for Busboy ever since I arrived at the school, slightly brought down each time I didn't see him.

Soooo, more than an hour before the performance... (4:48pm... cause I sent a text... that's how I know), I'm sitting at our fish booth, and I look at the Senior lounge, where they're doing the tea ceremonies... I can't remember if I was scanning the entire commons, or if I looked RIGHT there, as if someone yelled by name, but WHITE HAIR catches my attention. I completely lose my breath. My heart's in my throat, shot by a needle of adrenline (see, I am a good writer). I literally JUMP out of my seat, and my hand shoots for my phone, immediantly texting "HES HERE!!" no time for apostrophes. I THINK I looked at him again, to find him not there. If not, I didn't look back for a while, but when I did, he was NO WHERE to be found.

For a while, I thought I had imagined it all. He WAS on the other side of the room, and I HAD seen him when there was a lot of people between us.

About an hour later, we were told to clean up. I scanned the room once again, seeing how many people there were left. I jumped out of my skin when I saw Busboy. Seriously, it scared the shit out of me. Standing by the Office window. With Cody. They were standing by themselves, seemingly people-watching. *I wonder if he was watching me*
Sensei told us to take the posters down. So, realizing that Busboy could be watching, I took down Amber's poster. I jumped out of my skin again to see that they had moved. They were by the food table (thus, closer to us), facing me. I tried no to think (but still hoped) that they were watching me.
I went for the poster that Caitlin put up because I was too short. I struggled. Apparently I was too short to even take it down. I got 1.5 out of the 3 pieces of tape off, keeping it on the wall, before I called for Caitlin's help. She didn't catch the call of desperation fast enough. Her Aunt Mary came over and helped me, joking with me how short I was.
I told Karlie how I made a fool out of myself trying to take a poster that was too far up for me. And she said that he was thinking how he could've been the one to help me... even though he can't be much taller than me, can he? Ha. That's funny. He's should be tall enough to be able to take the damned poster down, though.

I saw them walk into the hallway, with Jen, a first year, and apparently still Cody's gf.

I went to the classroom. This meant going out into the hallway. BUSBOY was there. And Cody... making out with his gf. I came back out. Practically walking right at them. I looked down the whole way. I didn't want to smile at him!! It would've looked like I was smiling at the couple making out!

A bit later, Caitlin and I walked to the classroom again, to put our stuff away in a safe place. They were still there, Busboy a few feet away, giving them space. As we got in the classroom, Caitlin said how she saw Skunk Kid... oh yeah, because I SO didn't!

Anyway, in the auditorium, waiting for Karlie. I didn't see Busboy. I finally got a text from Karlie saying she was there. I kept looking at the door. It opened, and in walked Cody and Busboy!! Then, before the door closed, Karlie came in!! I started laughing. I tried to get her attention, but she didn't see. Caitlin said to just go to her. So, I swallowed my nerves, bent down a bit, and went over. I frantically whispered to her how THAT was him, but I don't think she understood what I was saying. We went back to where I was sitting. In the special 3 no-attached seats. There, I told her again how it was him. He had a hood on. White hair. She said that she saw his back.
THEN, Cody and Busboy started walking towards us!! I nudged her, pointing in front of me "That's him" she finally turned at he started up the stairs. You could see he was wearing a hoodie with the hood on, and more importantly, his tight pants. Not TIGHT, just tight. She giggled at me.

We went on stage not long after that. I knew he was watching me. Well, maybe not ME, but US, which included me. I was sitting on the floor next to Kelly (who just played Bass). Maybe I looked cooler... I was laughing and talking a bit with the person who had JUST performed in a band, hello!

Me, Caitlin, and Matt walked the shorter way back to our seats. Not long after we sat down, Busboy and Cody left. Karlie never got to see his face. Shame.

An eternity later, the performances ended, and now we had to clean up. I spent more time talking to Karlie than cleaning up, I admit. I kept a look out for Busboy AND Tyler. I needed to ask him the question.

Eventually, I walked in the hallway. Tyler was going to the vending machine. The only other person near him was Katie. I wanted her to leave, so I could more comfortably ask him. She started talking to me. Tyler punched the vending machine, being the genius that he was, not noticing it said "Sold Out," I pointed this out. Katie's attention was caught. My opportunity was lost. I followed him into the classroom, feeling a bit like a nuisance.
"I need to talk to you." I said.
Frisbee, nearby, said "She needs to talk to you"
"You make it sound so serious!" I said, jokingly... but it a way, it was serious.

It was weird. Everyone who was by the door went out and the door closed. We were alone in the room. I stood in front of him, stalling much more than needed.
"Do you like me?" I tried to make it look like it was hard for me to ask this, even though I was more than ready to do it. I took a deep breath, and closed my eyes before asking it. They stayed closed for most of the question. They opened at the end, but I looked down.
"What?"
I didn't repeat it. I knew he heard me.
"I have a girlfriend. Didn't you know that?"
"No." I wish I'd added: "You don't tell me much"
"Oh. Well, yeah." Or something like that. Then, "We've been going out for a week."
Nick walked in.
"A week?! You've been going out for a week?"
Nick walked into the conversation with something like "He gets all the good girls." ...anyway, at the time, I didn't register what it meant/could've meant.
I was kind of disgusted with Tyler, to say the least. WHO in the world does he go out with? I've NEVER seen him kiss or hold hands with anyone. WHO is it that apparently didn't have enough time in their schedule today to hang out with him at the Festival?
Even though I may have never met her, I already feel like I could be a much better girlfriend than SHE is.

I should've asked him a week ago... that painfully reminds me of Halloween, when I asked him to hang with us, then asked again MORE than a week later, to which he responded with: "You should've asked me a week ago"...me: "I did!"

I surprisingly felt like crying on the spot. I hadn't expected this. A week-long relationship that I hadn't known about... that's how much he talks to me (yeah, I know it doesn't sound like much). I walked back to the commons (but not before grabbing more Jolly Ranchers), head held high, trying not to look defeated. I wasn't depressed. I was more angry than sad. I told EVERYTHING that just happened to Karlie.
"A week?!"
"That's what I said!"
I pointed out how he hadn't really answered my question.
She said how his "week" comment completely ruined the meaning he may have been going for.

I hope he's thinking about me right now. Thinking about what he feels for me.

Karlie kept trying to make me feel better, telling how Busboy was better. That Tyler isn't that great at drums (although he is... he performed for the Festival during "Ue O Muite". He kept PERFECT rhythm), that Tyler didn't answer the question and there was still hope, that Busboy was cuter, that Tyler was a jerk.

I kept everything swallowed up for the rest of the time I was there. My face stayed the same. It probably looked a little down, no doubt, but I kept the threatening tears back. My eyes never got watery. The only other emotion I showed was anger.

I didn't get a hug from Tyler. After all the time we spent together that day... yes, I know I'm being a bit sarcastic. But I wanted a hug, to possibly show that "it was alright".
Maybe that I wanted to be friends still. That I wasn't all about the possiblity of a relationship.

I'm gonna go and mope in silence some more.

------

Oh!! And I talked to Busboy's smart friend (Jonathan). This was around... 2? And well, it was more like he talked to me. I makes me happy to realize that a guy talked to me... willingly... and so closely associated with someone I'm crushing on. ^_^ Yay!!
Anyway, I was looking at Mr. Yee's really cool/cute toy thing (that he actually got from Japan). It didn't look like it was on, so I picked it up, and looked at the bottom. It was on. I looked at the other things on it.
A guy, first year (Jap), and smart friend were on the other side of the table as me. The guy started talking about the toy. (He was the one that had an orange headband on all day) How the head moves from side to side.
"What?" said Busboy's friend.
"That."
I put it back down facing them and all three of us watched the head gracefully move from side to side.
"I could watch it all day," I said, moving slightly with it.
"It's like a lava lamp" said Bboy's friend with a smile. He responded so fast, like he was just thinking about it.
I laughed, "It is."
Then, the other guy (who later, Karlie said, was looking at me) said how it'd probably wake him up at night or cause nightmare. Me and "friend" laughed. It had the potential to do it. I can imagine being up at night, "Why is it so happy?!! Why is it looking at me like that?!"
The guy walked off after saying it, and when Caitlin came up to me, asking what was so funny, the bonding opportunity had ended and "friend" walked off, too.

I am quite positive that come Monday morning, we will have an anouncement telling us about the banning of Silly String from school. It probably already is, but it's incredibly loose and didn't stop people from what happened today.

Today was "Color Wars" at WHS. Freshman = Yellow, Soph = Purple, Juniors = Green, Seniors = Red, Staff = Pink.

Most of the school was THESE colors. Even more so than past Wars.
This morning, the VERY spririted Tamir (Junior), was spraying green hair spray stuff into people's hair. At lunch, we noticed that he got some in Poofy Hair's (Freshman) hair. Very funny stuff. Yes, this becomes slightly relavent later on. Juniors (and Poofy Hair) were the only ones with color in their hair.

We had a pep assembly, naturally, at the end of school.

Oh my god, I won't forget it anytime soon.


The Senior Walk-in.

The Seniors came in and started throwing things at us, Juniors. It kinda hurt. They were little bits of gum.
Then, as they came in a bit more, the middle group of Juniors brought out the guns... haha, no, I mean GREEN SILLY STRING. Not much actually got to the Seniors, who had a couple Stringers themselves. It ended a couple seconds later. It may have been the end of the battle, but not the War.

Mr. Yee grabbed an abandoned can and sprayed me and either Steph or Caitlin with green string. It got on my sleeve and felt absolutely NASTY. I can't imagine how it'd feel on your face or hair.

The smell was horrible. It certainly wasn't helping the near-migraine headache I had.

Of course, like always, the Juniors and Seniors have chanting battles.
The middle group of Juniors (the ones with Silly String and COVERED from head to toe with green) stood for the ENTIRE assembly.

There was a game. You know, one of those stupid pep assembly games to humiliate a few people to make everyone else incredibly hyped up. There was one person from each class and one staff (Mr. Yee). With hands behind their backs, they had to shove their face in cream filled with gummi bears and 2 pieces of gum, which they had to chew and blow a bubble with. Staff was declared the winner. After that, Trenton (Junior), took his "cream pie" and threw it at the Senior next to him, starting a mini cream fight... HEY, that's what you get when you make a game with CREAM pies. It's a recipie for disaster.
It was quite fun to watch, actually.

More chanting.
I could tell the staff/people in charge were trying to be heard over the yelling of "Seniors!" and "Juniors!"

About half the Seniors were standing on the floor, right in front of their bleachers. I was kinda wondering what was going on. How many people did it take to hold up 7 pieces of regular sized paper? (They had one with "S", another with "E", and so on". They all spelled it fine, except the "R" was upside down. Funny stuff)

More chanting. This time all from the Juniors, screaming, "Seniors suck!" More green string, making the smell come back. Tamir had his green hair spray, and sprayed it in the air.
Judging by people's faces and reactions near him, the spray had an absolutely nasty smell.

After a funny joke from the Staff, Seniors were declared the "Winner" of the pep assembly. The winner stuff is absolute crap in my opinion. The Seniors got 3 "paw points" for winning Tug-O-War. Absolute CRAP!! The point giving is completely biased (given my a Senior) and pointless.
Suddenly, the Seniors started RUNNING, or CHARGING; the word that first came to mind. Let's go through what was running through my head: "Shit. What are they doing? Why are they running? Are they going to attack us? HO. LY. SHIT. RUN FOR COVER!!" And it was exactly the right thing to think. As the Seniors got to us, all Hell broke lose. Silly String was painting the sky, the bleachers, and people, green and red. People were screaming, running, and trying to cover themselves to not get string on their face or hair.

Oh yeah. Silly String is so banned from school.


After we were allowed to go, we practically ran out. We got to the outside door when Steph realized she forgot her poster. We all headed back. I watched Busboy go with the crowd out of the gym before going the opposite way we go. Damn. I wanted him to walk by me. Then I'd be able to give him a charming smile. Ha. As if. I'm too shy to do that.

Steph finally came out as the same time as Tyler, Cassy, Chelsea, and co. I whacked Tyler in the head with my poster, and it made everyone else laugh. I told him I did it because he didn't expect it, did he? No. =)
Hells yeah.
Well yeah, so all of them said that the whole assembly was extremely fun to watch. Yeah, maybe for them! They weren't being charged by large seniors armed with red Silly String!
...Okay, that sounds kinda pathetic, but really, it was quite scary. I was sitting on the floor! Thank god we weren't sitting where we have been for this year's past assemblies. We usually sat on the ground between the Juniors and Freshman, but this time we were on the OTHER side of the Juniors. Thank you, Steph!! If we had sat in the other place, I'd still be trying to get the String out of my hair. I'm telling you, it was EVERYWHERE. I tried taking a pic of what the Juniors looked like after being attacked by the Seniors, but it came out blurry and you can't see the worst of the attack. They were COVERED. The only string I got on me was from Mr. Yee. Thank god I didn't get more on me. Ugh, that would feel so nasty!

DUDE!! I found out that Beth died. ='(
She died last night. Surgery complications, or something like that. It's SO SAD!! I really feel for Danny. They were really close friends. I gave Chelsea (Danny's sister) a hug, though.
I looked at my yearbook, where Beth signed. It gave me a really powerful feeling.

I wasn't close friends with her, I'd talk to her and exchange hugs at school, but I haven't seen her, and I probably haven't even talked to her since after she graduated last year, so yes, we've drifted, and I guess I've always had the feeling that she wasn't gonna grow old. My dad said that she was born with a spine disorder of sorts. My dad knew her dad, and I told him what happened. He said that her dad was really proud that the daughter that wasn't going to live managed to live long enough to graduate....
Oh god, I think I'm going to tear up a bit
