11/8/97Today was pretty cool. It started out all messed up. I woke up at like 2:40 pm. If it weren't for my mom waking me up 'cause she had my brunch(no I really don't call it brunch...it's just because I ate a breakfasty food for lunchtime) ready. I had eggs or something. I don't really remember. I tried calling Jules like 4 times and I called Zoe too, but either weren't home. I figured they went to a viewing for a sixth grade teacher that died just recently. She was cool. Anyways, Lola got online and asked if I wanted to go see a movie or something. She wanted to see Bean. I had no problems with that. I tried calling Jules and Zoe again, but no one picked up. I'm not really sure if I had the right number for Zoe's house. Ah well. Lola called Luna, but she couldn't go because her parents were at a wedding.
Anyways, turns out Jules was sick with strep thoat. She said that she had heard the phone ring and stuff but didn't pick it up. So me and Lola were left going to the movies. As soon as we got there, Lola saw someone outside that she knew. Later, followed by a few others that she knew as well. Turns out the only person that I end up seeing is...yes....ANNOYING PAUL FROM MY FRENCH CLASS. I said Hi to him, which I later regretted. Practically every place we went, he was there. The little kids store where me and Lola tried on little pointy hats and played with feather fans...he was there. Barnes and Nobles...he was there too. Grr. Stalkers. Anyways, we got to the movies. We had to stay later because the 8 o'clock show was sold out so we ended up getting 10:15.
The movie was so stupid it was funny. I won't say anything about it because I don't want to ruin for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but I sorta like the show more. Mr. Bean talked a little bit. But I dunno. It's not the same as the show.
My dad picked us up at 12. Amazingly enough, I have parents that let me stay out late. I saw Lola's house. It was pretty cool. Big and brown with blue trimming. I bet everything in the house is all coordinated just like Lola. Heh.
Oh well. More Monday.
11/10/97Today was ok. I woke up all confused and stuff. A typical day I guess. Got to school, same old fight through the jerkoff guys to get to my locker and get my books, go to Zoe's locker, then Jules', then the library. English was boring. We took a 100 question test on Of Mice and Men. I like the book, I just hate tests. I better have aced that thing, or I'll be pissed. I saw the old and new movie of it, read it in fifth grade, read it again in 7th, and now 10th. It gets kinda boring, but I love the book. I just hate how the extermination of Lennie and Candy's dog was brought about.
French was alright. We went over past tense stuff. Then there was this game that we did. Mr. Vogt put flashcards on the blackboard and we had to match it. Um...I can't remember the name of that old game show. Wild card? Oh well, something like that. My team won 2 pairs, the other teach cheated. But I guess my team shouldn't have talked so loudly. Geometry was cool. I got an A+ on the definitions quiz. Starting out the second marking period good. Woohoo! At lunch, I really wasn't up to eating, I had a stomach ache...I dunno how, I mean I didn't eat anything. Or is that why? Blake and Zoe were like quiet. Blake was sleeping and Zoe was just doin' homework. Then Luna came and she started talking which was good. Oh god. I just got my magazine in the mail...HANSON IS ON THE COVER...MUST BURN!
Art, Biology, and Study Hall are meaningless classes. I don't care, well, I do about Bio but I am doing pretty good in there. In history class though, Mrs. Petrilla was giving out grades and she didn't finish the rest so she said that if she didn't read your name off you go an A. I thought there was no way I was getting an A since my grades on the tests had been D, C, and B. But, what do ya know! I got an A. At least I hope. I mean Petrilla could be just stupid and forgot to read my name off. I have no idea with her anymore. I liked my last year history teacher better. Mr. Langdon. He rocked. He made the class fun and most of the time lectured, but he made things enjoyable. Not like Petrilla, who does the notes thing. I don't learn anything from notes. I like having discussions about topics.
Health/Drivers Ed. Hmm...boring? Uh, the supply of Drivers Ed booklets ran out so now we have to wait. But we had to write an essay on why driving is important and if 16 year olds are responsible enough...also how driving would change my life. I wrote that after I get my liscense I'm outta this godforsaken state.
Oh yeah! I saw Ben today. I dunno why I'm excited. All I did was walk a foot behind him as he was going to his lunch and I was going to art. I should have said Hi, but he probably wouldn't have talked back to me. Hmm...jerk? I dunno. I mean, I dunno if he would start talking to me, but before I even told him that I liked him, we were friends. And I liked it that way. I guess I'm just a fool for wanting something I couldn't have.
11/12/97 A few things have happened but I don't really feel like typing it all right now. I'll do it sometime over my few days off, soon.
