I'm pretty hyped up right now (and I can't sleep, as is evident from the time it says up above...or is it down below? Anyways it's 12 o'clock.) And it's not hyped up in a bad or a good way, it' s just kind of in between. I suppose it's just stress and frustration mixed together...with a pixie stick on top.
1. There's a state championship boys basketball game which I wanted to go to and which I AM going to because I always get my way, and when I don't get my way I sit there and pout until I do get my way. That's not a good character trait to have, especially since I was originally upset with the other person for telling me that the game wasn't a priority. It's not one of those "I-think-it's-all-about-me" situations, but for a second there I did catch what seemed like a slight disregard for my interests. At least it seemed like it. Anyways, I'm over it. Petty drama. Over it, over it. So over it.
2. Speaking of appreciation, I wonder how much people really notice what good little things other people do for them every day. Things that often totally slip under the radar. Like the fact that I'm willing to stay up until 12 o'clock just to blow-dry my hair just to look nice the next day. Okay this is again heading in the direction of the whole basketball-game issue, and I decided we were over it so moving on.
3. I appreciate people who have patience. I'll be patient with you if you are patient with me. And please be patient with me.
4. I think this is all partially stress, though, and the fact that my Grandma is flying out tomorrow and will probably not be back until the summer. It's good to spend time away from her for a while because otherwise we just all lose our appreciation for each-other (there's the whole appreciation thing again!) but I don't know how well she'll handle going back to the place where she lived before Grandpa died. She's a tough lady, she can handle it. At least she'll have everyone believe that. Whether she actually wants everyone to believe that is a whole another psychological debate, though.
5. At least I got all my Physics work out of the way. All I have to work on tomorrow, then, is finding something to wear for the dance. And writing thank-you notes for sponsors who donated to our club fund. I don't even know what I'm going to put in those cards.
roses are red
violets are blue
thank you so much
this card is for you
Yes, that's the best I can think of right now. Not too bad, though, is it?
6. Our school basketball team is going to the state competition and I don't even like basketball all that much, but I'm still pretty excited. Maybe it's the fact that it's a huge basketball game. In Indianapolis. My senior year. We get to make history, or we get to learn that a good build-up doesn't guarantee a good outcome. I mean, the other team is preparing just as much, right?
7. Ew my aunt watched Twilight and now she has a crush on Edward. Ew! Edward isn't even all that nice or good-looking. "But he's so romantic!" she said. Seriously, lady, you talk like a 14-year old. Even I know better than that. Come on.
8. Okay I'm done blabbering for the day. See, what happens is that when I tutor right after school I always have to talk really fast because I have to fit a whole chapter's worth of talking into the space of an hour (don't know how teachers do this...). So it sets the pace for the rest of the day and I experience extreme episodes of super-extreme logorrhea for the rest of the day. (There's your daily word, by the way: Logorrhea. Cool, eh?)
Anyways. Done talking.
