Catching up

Wow.. its been too long since I last made a post here... So since I missed my bus to the career center this morning and.. well.. i guess i should be finishing my math homework but its on Trigonometry and just very confusing and absolutely pointless. Yes, I know, there probably is some job in life where this stuff will be used but, as far as I know, that job would be something that is centered on all things Math. And in that case those things should be left to be taught to college students who will definitely need to know this stuff rather than high school students who the majority of probably will not ever need it.

OK, so.. in my last post I talked about going to a friends confirmation which was incredibly pointless and annoying. I also talked about going to some of my friends sweet 16 birthday party which I really need to tell you about. I noticed (and I may have mentioned this in my last post, but I cant really remember and I don't feel like going back to look) that my spelling and, OK, my grammar too, all sucks incredibly. I need to work on that.. My spelling has improved. ...Not by much, but whatever, grammar isn't really my thing anyways. (I made a 43 on the PSAT writing skills section and then a 52 on the critical reading part. At least on the critical reading my score was 68% higher that other juniors. Oh! And I made a 62 on the mathematics part ^^ 85% higher than other juniors. I probably would have done better in all of these if I could have at least finished them and had not had to rush so much)

OK! Now to catch everyone up. So I think I'll start with my friends sweet 16 birthday party that I mentioned earlier. It was quite amazing. I had to wear a dress to it and back then I wasn't really a big fan of dresses... I'm starting to warm up to them, but I don't have many dresses to wear so I still only wear them on special occasions (or when I'm forced to go to church...) Anyways, at the party I met the other kid that is in my band that I have talked about (The band no longer exists but I'll explain later). We hung around each other most of the time and talked some (Its kind of difficult to have a decent conversation when you have to talk over music that's so loud that you have to yell). So we danced and enjoyed the music and ate a bit (They had chocolate fountains and huge subs from subway ^^ The vegetarian subs were delicious and.. well... chocolate is always good). And then Howie Day's "Collide" comes on. The other kid (the amazing guitar playing guy, who's name is Brandon) in my (failed) band comes up to me and asks me to dance ^_^ It was really nice and my friends would come up behind Brandon and be all like, "Awwww...". After the "Collide" was over the music picked back up. Some of my friends would come up to me and make a heart sign with their hands as to ask, "Do you like him?" I said no every time ...but to be honest, I did like him BUT 1. I knew that he had a girlfriend and that girlfriend would be moving away soon 2. I had a crush on another guy and so I didn't want to jump into a relationship with Brandon and then realise that maybe I didn't like him so much and I just wanted someone to use to get past that other guy and I didn't want him to use me to get past his girlfriend cause rebound relationships aren't that great... and.. we were trying to get a band going with this guy being in a relationship with this guy would most likely complicate thing (At the time I also really wanted to be in a band. Now.. not so much, but I'll tell you what I'd like to do with my life later) So, first I guess I should finish talking about the dance. Well, we did the cha cha slide, the soldier boy (there a few other dances people did together to some songs but I didn't know any of them), and me and Samaire did our dance that we made up to The Bloodhound Gang's "Bad Touch" ^^

OK, so Samaire had her party at this building in this park (Sorry.. i cant remember any names but does it really matter?) and turns out that her ex-boyfriend decided to have his party on the same day, (basically) the same time, and at the same place. What was so amazing about this, is that no one showed up at his party ^^ ha! And I guess now you're wondering what he did to make us despise him so. Well, when they broke up (to each others faces) they agreed that things had just fizzled and that it was over, but afterwards we found out that her ex (who I will now refer to as Slime) was spreading rumors about things that they did while they were together.. So when we saw that no one came to his party, that just made the day even better. Later that night though he decided to show up at her party. Like, seriously??? Why would you go to your ex's party where most of her friends hate you? There were a few people at Samaire's party that Slime knew and he had a few friends with him, but that doesn't make anything better. I asked Samaire what she was going to do about it but she decided that she would be the better person and just ignore him (Good for her I guess. But his visit pissed some people off and I know I wouldn't have mind seeing him get his ass kicked) As the party ended and people left and the music stopped. Everyone left, hung around and took pictures and ate and talked. At some point we realised that one of the guests had gone missing. She showed up a bit later looking rather rough, turns out that she had been in the bathroom throwing up.. ick.. :[ At least she got to somewhat enjoy just chilling with everyone afterwards until she had to leave. That night I slept over at Samaire's house (which is always great cause it almost never happens)

OK, now for life after the party. So I was at home one day, on AIM like always and I get an IM and I was a bit confused about who it was at first but then he told me and it was Brandon ^_^ and so we talked, quite a bit actually and about many things. It was great cause I spent the majority of my time on AIM and so did he apparently. So we talked over the summer and later on towards the end of the summer he told me that he liked me ^^ I he had wanted me to guess it and we played 20 questions till I figured it out (or felt more sure about what he was going to tell me), but I didn't want to be like you like me? and have him say um... no? why would you think that? The would have been rather depressing for me... So he ended up being the one to tell me and I told him that I liked him too but I was unsure about doing anything about it at the time. So we continued talking and then when Samaire got back from seeing her family in Texas and Mexico (which she does every year) she had a get together where a bunch of her friends (including me and Brandon) got together and played laser tag. Before the whole laser tagging experience me and Brandon talked on AIM and I had realised that I haven't thought about the guy that I had had a crush on in a long time. And so I decided and told him that I wanted to start dating (I'm not quite sure what the exact words were but basically we decided to start dating). The day we went laser tagging was... OK.. cause at the beginning I ended up getting sick T^T I didn't throw up or anything but I felt like shit... Fortunately I started feeling better when it got closer to time to laser tag and the sickness never really came back ^_^ Laser tagging itself was OK, I guess I'm just not the kind of person who enjoys shooting her friends. Its not like I wouldn't ever do it again, its just not my first choice for "fun things to do". So that day Brandon and I kissed ^^ We had gone up to the observation room at the laser tagging place and we sat on a bench for a while and eventually kissed.. er.. made out really... ^^; anyways... this little kid had came up stairs to the observation room too and started playing the X box that they had there (lol... He had his back turned to us so we just ignored him). After a while Brandon got a call from one of our friends that was also at the laser tagging get together (they wanted to know where we had gone off to. ha..) So they came up to the observation room place too and found us and made jokes and so we all went back downstairs, laser tagged, played games, and just hung out.
So that was about 6 months ago. Brandon and I are still together but with him living 30 minutes away and going to a different school than me, it makes things kind of difficult... The beginning was great because we could hang out more but because of school and everything we don't have as much time. =/ but oh well... things will work out if they're meant to...
