Well, its now official, I guess. Mary finally got permission to come to prom, so I'll be "taking" her. To all you bums who pestered me to get a date...I did not do this to appease you. I did this cause she wanted to go and couldn't go otherwise, and she's a friend. So HAH! :D
Sounds like we'll (along with Scotty, Adrianna, Jeff, Elise, Cory, Jessie, and some others whom I cannot remember off the top of my head) be headin down to Jake's downtown before all the hoopla. Not sure as to specific plans for that evening (IE, am I driving? If not, I'll prolly be bummin off Scotty.) but it should be a great deal of fun.
I would like to take a moment to acknowledge those who will not be attending, particularly those who will be refraining from participating due to strong convictions. I'm sure you'll find something equally fun, and know that as much as I may harass you about it, I do respect you. Its quite hard to stick to your beliefs in the face of strong pressure.
This Saturdayish signals the beginning of my "Hell Week". Perhaps you have not heard me explain my schedule, so I shall do so now. Saturday I have SAT's and then need to work the auction. Somewhere in there I'm supposed to do some errands, chores, and attend a cast meeting...something there will have to be dropped. Sunday, I gots mass with the fam, meeting with Dr. G to prepare for the coming madness, and I need to start on my Junior Paper and History Research Paper outline. Monday I have track, football, rehersal, a meeting with Father Oliver, some work on the play movie, and some work on the french movie. Tuesday got the sports, jazz band, and the french movie. Wednesday is my Calculus BC AP test, which I need a perfect score, a track meet that will own my evening, and a Death Cab for Cutie concert that I might not be attending (due to track). Thursday I have rehersal and sports as well as work on the french movie and hist. outline. Friday the outline is due and I need to party hard. Saturday night I come home and start finishing the Junior Paper, same with Sunday. Monday is the Junior Paper due date aswell as my Physics AP test. And that is the ordeal known as hell week. (Oh, I left out that I need an outline of the french movie sometime that week and its due the week of the AP test. I think.) If I don't kill myself, it'll be good times.
Been listening to a lot of music, both new and old, lately. Gotta say that a new The Early November song stuck in my head the most:
Pretty, Pretty
Early in the morning, wake up to a bright blue sky
lightning comes at any time to break it down and make it ugly
i know that it's just for me
'cause no one else can feel or understand
that's alright because i can handle all that you throw down
and i hope you find a perfect place
where sky's are beautiful all of the time
it's all that matters, pretty, pretty
and i know that's all you could care about
there's no reason why you can't
it's all about the icing, and nobody cares about what's inside
you could see the outside face, it looks good, it must be great
and i know that's all you see
what would it matter anyway
'cause i can see right through your pretty, pretty skin today
and i hope you find a perfect place
where sky's are beautiful all of the time
it's all that matters, pretty, pretty
and i know that's all you could care about
there's no reason why you can't
and no reason why i should try to go on anymore
my reason's all gone, no reason why you should
try to make excuses to make me feel alright
excuses call for stupid reasons
and i know that it's not much that i can offer right now
just give me one little second and i will try my hardest
to make you feel like i'm someone else.
