In five minutes we'll know if it's a FULL SWEEP FOR LOTR:ROTK!!!!!!
Wow. Just when I think my life couldn't get any crazier, it does.
Yesterday was probably the busiest, wackiest, and funniest day in ages. It started off with the Jr. High tourney that Mu Alpha Theta held at our school. I was there by 7:30 AM, proctored until around 11, worked in the gameroom, ran around looking for pizza, and socialized lots. Proctoring was definitely one of the most fun things I have ever done. (If I have time later, I'll write more about it. Right now I'm just trying to get through everything.) The game room wasn't all it was wacked out to be for me personally, and I was angry that they forgot to give us pizza. >:/
We were done & out of there by around 12:30 PM, so then we went home and I worked on painting the Physics dollhouse some more. After that, I called Jason to tell him I had permission to come over that night. I started off with, "Umm, hey. Do you still want me to come over tonight?" and he was like, "Yeah, definitely! We'll even come pick you up if we have to!" I was like, "Nah, it's alright, my dad can bring me. ^_^;;" It was like.. geez, you're just determined, huh? :P Hehehe. It was cute. ^o^
Then around 2 PM we left so dad could take me to Westfield for the VASE Art competition. I saw Lisa there and we talked, and then I went off to get judged. My first judge was running late, I guess because he liked to tell lots of personal stories. He said he liked my graphite drawing of the paper bags; the only problem was shading, or lack thereof in a few places. He said directional light could've made things easier, and otherwise I should've taken the liberty to add shading where it really wasn't. He said that if he had only an hour, he could have me do a few things and just those few things would make the artwork "brilliant". So I guess that went well. The second judge, amusingly enough, had gone to Oak for high school!! He recognized the staircase I'd used as the subject of my watercolor piece. ^_^;; He was like, "Is this the stairwell that goes down to the cafeteria?" and it was. He didn't ask that many questions or say that much. He was just like, "Yeh, I like this, and why did you use this?" He didn't talk about anything he didn't like about it or that could've been better, but then again more often than not that can be a bad sign. :|
Right after I was done with that, we had to quickly drive back home again to pick up mom & Debby so we could all see off mom at the airport. She's going to Holland for a week because my cousin's getting married. *very jealous* Man, things are going to be chaos here this week without her. XD
So after that we went home and I made dinner, and we ate quickly. Then dad got up one more time to drive me to Jason's house, where I had an absolute BLAST meeting his friends Aaron, Jeff and Sean and playing video games. My parents were a little concerned because I've only really known this guy for a week (and if my head wasn't so far up in the clouds, I probably should be concerned too) but it was fine. Jason was so sweet; his friends are a little pervy (like most guys at this age), and sometimes they'd make some pretty bad jokes, so he'd turn to me every time to check and make sure that I was laughing too, that I was okay with the joke.. as if if I wasn't, he'd tell them to stop or something. ^_^;; And sometimes he'd cough loudly to remind them that there was a girl present. I didn't mind the jokes though.. I have enough guy friends to be used to the bad content and sexual innuendos. ;| But it was sweet, especially because most of my guyfriends tend to sort of forget that I'm female.. I think they view me as "just another one of their buddies", so saying all those types of things without regard is just okay. Not that it isn't, but it's nice to know that someone is completely aware of the fact that you're female for a change. I felt flattered. Anyhow, his friends are GREAT. They were so hilarious.. they almost make my friends look insipid in comparison. XD Just kidding. Aaron's quite a character though. Heck, they all were. And we played all these multiplayer games on Jason's GameCube.. god, it was the funniest. I never knew that SSB: Melee would be so much fun. Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles is pretty awesome too.. as long as you have friends to play it with. ^^; We had a great time. And god, I still can't believe that I've found people that I have so many things in common with. Aaron's an artist; he was at VASE today too! And all of them are obsessed with FF, video games, anime, they even listen to Jpop! o__o And Aaron listens to Rammstein. AND JASON OWNS A KATANA. *drool*
I could go on, but for time's sake, I won't. :P You can pretty much just tell that I had a fabulous time. It was nice, too, because I'd had such a stressful week, with all these school things out the wazoo. It was nice to be somewhere to just simply have fun and not have to worry about anyone's expectations for a while. <3 Everyone left at 10:30 PM, and I met his parents, and they were very nice, and he and his dad drove me home, and uhh that was it. :)
Today, I found out that dad had stayed for a while to talk to his parents. Okay, I'd known that, but I hadn't known that he had stayed long enough for Debby to watch Spy Kids 3D all the way once through. o__o This is both good and bad.. good because it means they get along (can't have a Capulets/Montagues thing going on here :P), bad because.. I hope they weren't talking about just me & Jason the entire time. O____o Mom called from Holland today, and I heard dad talking to her in the study, and he was like, "Yeah, they were saying that Jason's been talking about Nara all week long," and I was hoping to hear more but just then Deborah walked up and started chattering. >:/ Also, I'd been hoping that I'm not his only female friend because it would make this occurance less odd, but at breakfast dad was like, "Yeah, his parents were thrilled because you're the first girl that he's ever invited over." I was like.. greeeaat.
No really, I'm thrilled. XD My dilemma now is just..
Question: How soon do I call him again?
I was thinking tomorrow night, since I'll have found out how I did at VASE, which he'd asked a lot of questions about. But maybe I should wait until Tuesday because A) I won't be stressing about the dollhouse anymore and B) I'll probably have more to talk about.
Another get-together is unavoidable because I have two of his anime DVD's and he has one of mine. :D Since he invited me, I'm figuring it's my turn to invite him. But umm.. what to do. >_> I'd invite him to meet my friends, but A) I wouldn't know what to do, and B) my friends haven't exactly been very responsive in my pleas for get-togethers of late. :/ Well, I'll figure something out. Until then, I can talk to him on the phone.
I've been working on the dollhouse all fucking day today. Enough said. I will be happy when that shitload of a project is finally done with.
Lab practical in Physics tomorrow. >_< And a Pre-Cal test.
Okay, enough rambling. I'm gonna go finish watching the Oscars and then head off to bed. :P I'm hella tired. This has been one heck of a weekend.

Re: your question
I know you like him, but for these questions just pretend you don't. If you didn't like him, would you call him tonight? If the answer is yes, then call him. If not, wait until tomorrow.
Glad you had a good weekend. :)
