most of today was bland/miserable. at lunch, kirstie and alex had decided to move up next to tiffany and me. i guess they were feeling excluded, but, honestly, the reason we moved away in the first place was that we kind of... well... don't like them. more like we don't like alex. more like i hate alex. and i really don't understand kirstie. i mean, she's got suck a lack of passion. i couldn't possibly imagine her in love or crying or too angry for words. so, anyway, they moved up, and you have to understand this. every day since we moved away from kirstie and alex, we've been sitting next to scott and joel and kouta. and, everyday, they told us to go back where we belonged. of course, i would rather lick the bottom of their shoes. so i've been feeling really bad about disturbing their peace. and kirstie and alex just sort of squished us all so there wasn't enough room for scott AND me. so i was about to sit down and kouta was like 'NOOO! SCOTT SITS THERE!' so i got up and sat at the end of the table, away from everyone. like i've said, i was already miserable. so i just wanted to be left alone. so i opened interview with a vampire and soon found myself absorbed totally. then kirstie was like 'why have you excluded yourself from the table, sarah?' in her somewhat-annoying-sensible-nonpassionate voice. i shrugged and went back to reading as she moved closer to me. i didn't acknowledge the gesture at all (i'm kind of an ass when i'm in a bad mood), and then this girl i don't know comes and sits across from me, staring past me at the table behind my head. then she asks me to move next to kirstie, so i slide over. i was in a state of 'argh, whatever, i don't care, fuck everything', so i didn't really care. wow, i'm really showing you the bitchy side of me, aren't i? anyway, that was lunch. english sort of brightened up for me. it always does, though i usually find myself dreading it, though i don't know why. i guess it's just sort of the blandness of the beginning. anyway, we had a test (i studied the period before in math after my test when i was supposed to be doing my homework, but we had a substitute, so she didn't really notice). but i did pretty well. that's saying a lot though, because it's memorizing 20 words in about twenty minutes. i memorize three at a time. anyway, yeah. i did pretty well. i got the logic bonus. and for the quotation bonus (where it says a quote and you write in the person who said it) i wrote 'freddy mercury' for the hell of it. i never know who it is anyway. then the hoss let us listen to 'dazed and confused' by led zepplin, saying that it was the themesong of our class. i had heard it before, of course, but not for a while. and benton was all like 'this sounds like queen' and i was like 'it does not! it sounds nothing like queen!'. you have to understand that i was obsessed with queen for about three years. and i still like them. not to mention i know everything about them and have all their cds. next period, reading, i finished the test and got out my book. i got so into it that i couldn't control the tears flooding my tears. suprisingly, no one saw me. which is a good thing. afterwards, i don't know why, but everything seemed so colorful and happy. i found myself laughing at small things i picked up on and thought funny. of course, it got some wierd stares, but i didn't mind. why should i? i never do. geography was okay. stefan, chris and i worked on the study guide together, splitting the questions up into groups of 6,6, and 7. the 7 for me, of course. but i chose the easier ones. i would rather run slowly and enjoyably than quickly and painfully. but that's just me. i went on a bike ride when i got home. i went to a place i've been before once, but never really bothered to visit again. it's really pretty out there though. the dogwoods are covered with a soft, sweet snow-white blanket, and their perfume fills the air. it was great. then i got home... and went on the internet. one pleasure to the next. yes, that makes up for.. what was i going to say? oh! jennifer's coming over from college tonight! her visits are always unexpected but appreciated. i don't know when she'll leave. i can't wait until sunday. i might see louis there. oh! i haven't told you about louis. well, the other night, we were out of food (as usual), so my mom sent me to kroger for some coke and wendy's for dinner for myself (she had chili. blech.). and so, i was walking through kroger (i couldn't find the sodas; they rearranged everything). michael should've been there. he's there every week night from seven to nine. i would tell you how i found out, but that's a story for another time. so, i was wandering through kroger in vain, when i saw this guy with long blonde hair. (as i've said before, you know how i am about long hair) and then i saw this other guy from my church with long black hair. it's odd, though. you can't look at him with one glance. at first you look at him and you're think 'wow, he's different, but in a good way, i think', and then you step back and look at him again and you're like 'whoa. he's amazing'. anyway, i should probably go into further detail. he has a somewhat feminine face. i didn't really catch how tall he is, but he's taller than me. he has dark eyes (i think), and he sort of glides wherever he goes. to me, he looks kind of like a vampire. kind of like an elf (tolkien elf, that is. not santy-clause elf). so anyway, i finally found the soda and i picked a diet caffiene free coke bottle off the shelf and carried it to the u-scan. as i was approaching it, though, i saw the blonde guy and the black-haired guy come together to pay for their things. i was suprised. it was like 'wow, so all long-haired guys really do know eachother'. gah, i must be sounding so shallow right now. anyway... i payed for my bottle of coke, and i was collecting my change, when i turned around. i don't even remember why i turned. maybe i felt someone standing behind me. what i saw was the guy with black hair standing close behind me. i didn't know how long he had been standing their. it seemed like he'd been waiting for me. he winked. i turned around toward the machine, smiled with realization, and turned back to face him. i must have been blushing something terrible. and i had that smile on my face. then i think he may have walked away. or maybe i did. i dont know, i just remember walking out of kroger with the grocery bag in my hand, trying to discreetly cover my face so that no one would see the beet-red in it, or the huge smile. i mean, it's not that big of a deal, i know, but it's never really happened before. i mean, think about it. have you ever wandered into a grocery store, seen two amazing people, and one of them winked at you? anyway, they both looked to be upperclassmen in highschool, so that's definitely never happened before. and i've definitely seen him at church before. and he's seen me. i always sensed a sort of connection in our glances, but i never thought it that bold. gah, what is it with me and people i don't know? well, i guess that, if i don't know them, they can't hate me. so i came up with a name for him, from the vampire chronicles. i named him louis, because, to me, he's a dazzling vampire with a conscience. anyway, i have to go now. my sister may be here soon and we're going to the movies and my parents have to look it up on the internet. so goodnight. i'll probably tell you about tonight tomorrow. ta.
