My (Rather Uninteresting) Day...Oh yeah, and another surreal/profound moment
Brace yourselves for a boring blog post, you've been warned. I really just felt like writing something.
Today began like most other days (see it's boring already), except I realized I forgot to shave my legs. I got a scholarship application finished and in the mail so I was feeling pretty good about that. I got to school and realized I had no cash on me so that meant no coffee (a very sad thing ). Before school even started I got my phone stolen and hid by my friends and it was also brought to my attention that they had my sunglasses I thought I had been missing (but they still won't give them back or tell me who has them).
First period I got to do a timed write about North Korea's nuclear threats, except there was no prompt, we had to make one up. Also when the teacher walked out of the room I reached down to grab my phone so I could look up a word, but OH YEAH, my friends have my phone.
Second period involved hunting down my phone that had been hidden in my friend's magic box (as in the card game) and then hanging out in my Calc teacher's room getting his help on Four Pics, One Word.
Two minutes before third period I passed a classroom my friend was in because she was a student aide in the class. She asked if I had studied for the vocab quiz. Then I had an OH SHIT moment, I knew there was something I was supposed to do. Of course it has to be the longest vocab quiz we've had in AP Gov the day I forget to study. So I'm pretty sure I bombed that.
Then there was an assembly about the male-pageant that's tomorrow which was alright. It's one of my last assemblies and it made me miss cheering in them. As the students were filing out I was surrounded by other seniors and I saw one of my friends laughing through the crowd. It was the innocent, care-free laugh where he throws his head back. But all of a sudden it hit me, the reality of graduating, how all these people and all these memories will be forgotten. High school is when we have it the easiest and we have four years to enjoy life, blow money on things that don't matter, and spend time with friends without any serious worries (for most people). I felt like I blinked and it was all gone, I didn't take advantage of it, heck I can barely remember most of it. I savored that moment, tried to remember every detail about how it felt, I almost cried thinking about it. All so I could write it down later (as in now).
Fourth period I took an IQ test and found out I'm well above average (not quite genius, Kolth if you read this there's no need to gloat, I'm still better at riddles). I probably would have gotten a few more points if I had understood that the questions worded strangely were done so on purpose, some of those threw me off.
Fifth period was just band, played some piccolo, the usual.
After that I left for a track meet and nearly died on the boring, 2 hour bus ride there. Since they split up girls and guys on the buses it was even worse. I have no female friends in track, so I had no one to talk to.
When we got there we found out guys pole vault would go first (which is very unusual) and that threw everyone off because girls were used to going first. BUT my VERY attractive friend that goes to the school we were at came to see me. It was really great seeing him again because the next (and probably last) time I'll see him will be at the State Band Competition. Then I lied on their turf field and got stupid fake grass all over my butt.
On the way back we stopped for dinner and I had a really nice conversation with a friend that's in band and also in pole vaulting with me, pretty much my only friend in track. I got to know a lot about him and that was really nice. I think he almost started crying at one point because it got pretty personal. But I could relate to everything he was saying, he's like the younger, male version of me.
After that was another insanely boring and annoying bus ride. I tried to sleep but that didn't work. And now here I am, finishing up what's probably my longest blog post, and also probably the most boring. If you read this far congratulations, here have a cookie! *gives cookie*
*drinks soda* umm thanks for stopping by?
You can leave now.
Really.
Goodnight!
