Well, today was... something.
I tried earlier to update, but the wind was blowin' so friggin' hard that the power kept flickering off and on. Still kept us at school, though.
I find it amusing (if annoying) that after this happened once or twice, Beatty-san then sent an E-mail out saying that this might happen. Well, DUH. The really eye-rolling thing was that Miz Adams had just said this when she called everyone in the library to attention by saying that she had just received an official E-mail from Beatty-san. I said, "Batt'n down the hatches!" She ignored me and proceeded to read the E-mail, which basically said just what she did, yet she seemed in awe of it.
Sheesh.
I suppose I should back up to this morning. Mi madre left for some required class or something at 6:30, so she woke me up then instead of my normal 7. T was to come and take me to school, so I wasn't worried or anything. I got up, made myself a cup of coffee, and then chilled out in front of the TV to watch music videos. 7 came and went... then 7:15... 7:30... 7:40... 7:50.... Finally, T shows up at 7:57. The late bell rings at 8:01, and I live ten minutes away from the school (in this weather). I get to school and stop in the office, where I stupidly ask, "Am I late?" Candace's mom (it's Lori or Lauri or something like that) just nodded. I signed the sheet and asked, "Is homeroom?"
"No," she says, "it's first period."
Eh heh heh... *sweatdrop* Oops. I managed to get to first period study hall and then to the library (where the E-mail fiasco happened), so it wasn't all bad, but... sheesh.
The day goes on... dragging slowly and painfully... and I do mean painfully. In English (third period) we finally got most of our papers back from the previous marking period, including our "Cantebury Tale"-- we had to write one-- and I only about half-noticed the grade. (I was busy looking through senior pictures that people kept giving me. I now have Andy's, Andrea M.'s, and Sano-san's.) Well, Miz Twombly's talking and I'm ignoring her, trying desperately not to fall asleep where I sit, and finally she says that unbeknown to us, the tale paper was actually a contest. Therefore, she tells us, that only one person got a 100%. I stop, look at the front of paper, and proceed to glare at her, praying to any and every god that she DID NOT SAY MY NAME.
Guess what? She did. *face fault*
I gave her the dirtiest look I could muster, which probably wasn't much considering my veritable lack of energy. She didn't notice and tried to hide myself behind my papers. Didn't work. Now, if I had, say, the worst grade of the class, I wouldn't have minded. I probably would have waved that like a banner without a care. But instead I got the best, and thanks to that I got several dirty looks of my own.
ARGH!!!
Because of that, I snapped at Sano-san at lunch before I skidaddled down to Señora's to watch Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. I apologized in Physics, but he shrugged it off. He had apparently already read the message I had sent him via THP.com about how sucky it was that I had no one to talk to. No hard feelings and all, which is thankful, but I think over the weekend something has changed. I still care for him, and on some level still love him, but I feel disconnected from him... from everyone, really. Everything just seems so... trivial, you know? Maybe not. Between Honey Graham dying, that suicide scare on THP, being alone, and taking care of covering everybody's tracks... and putting up with aggravating relatives... well, I just did a lot of bitter growing up over the weekend. I don't like it, but it's too late to go back, no matter how much I want to.
Uh-oh, I got sidetracked, didn't I? Sorry. Here's a bit of humor.
After Mr. Hoffner's class I just go down the hall, so I dropped my books off in Miz Schriver's room and went to the bathroom. As I was leaving it, two lil' girls (seventh or eighth graders) came in. The first one said, "I'm dyeing my hair red this weekend!" The second says, "Really? What color?"
DUH. This falls under the category that includes the question, "What color is George Washington's white horse?"
Anyhow, onto Physics class. Today we tested our scotch-tape-and-index-card creations. Sano-san's and mine was the lightest and the biggest, ironicly enough. We then took them down to the weight room where we would find out how much weight each could hold. Ours only made it to 585 lbs., which was the least. (We had an A anyhow, so it didn't matter much.) The big shocker of that class? Jim, Josh, and Ty's wedge-shaped creation (the only one-- everyone else, including us, had a round- / cylinder-shaped one) held the most weight, EVER! They broke the record of 700+ lbs! Theirs held just over half a ton of weight before finally collapsing! That was cool.
And the fun pretty much ended there. I read a new manga that Sano-san had bought called Ragnarök. It was pretty good, but I'll need to read the next volume or two before I'll get into it. Other than that, the day sucked from there on out, 'til I got home and read my new Shonen Jump and U.S. News. (There's a mix, ne?)
It was odd being back at school after so much happening these past few days off. I guess I'll get used to it again eventually, probably just in time for Christmas vacation in three weeks. (Yay.)
Well, that was a lot. I'm kinda typed out, but I can't end without a few quizzies! (Yes, I am addicted. Have you noticed much?)
 You're Lorne!
