I made the Varsity Soccer team. It's really not like reaching Nirvana, as most people think about Varsity, if they knew the state of the girls soccer teams at Oscar Smith. I worked my ass off running and playing to make it, though. 

What am I even doing? Fuck LiveJournal I just realized how much I hate this.

This weekend was so chill. I love hanging out with Michael and Darrell, playing Spyro and Sega and Pokemon. My Group IV people and I finally figured out what we're gonna do for our project, and I've got some books for my Extended Essay. Too bad we have about a million things coming up - English Jounals, Solitude test, English IOP, history research paper, chemistry test, orchestra festival, Group IV proposals, Extended Essay annotated bibliography, and I could go on. But hey, this is what I signed up for. 

And I still have tomorrow off, so I'll probably catch up on some homework and chill with Mike again. I hope this spell of good humor lasts a while. I'm gonna need to stay calm these next few weeks. IB is insane.
:]

So, once again, any plans that I've made for seeing Liam are out the window. Spring Break and summer were basically my only opportunities, but apparently the Almighty is not quite so benevolent as to allow me to see my best friend face to face.

My mom's spouting off about how "we're eventually going to be at war with everybody" (she's speaking of the end of days when Jesus decides to show up again) so we may as well go to war with China because they blew up our satellite. But she has such an air of superiority and condescension when she talks about things like that it's sickening.

<angst>
I hope I get asked to Ring Dance.
And IB can suck a big one. Soul-sucking source of endless work and hassle. But I wouldn't trade this experience for anything.
</angst> That's all.

I got my 90-day provisional license today.

i miss him. I miss isms marco polo and all the Wikiknowledge. We talked about the timeline of the universe and the weight of neutron stars.

i've been feeling so nihilistic. This isn't just bullshit.

Liam i love you so much.

Last night I dreamt that I had ice cream spilling over in a cup, and I woke myself up when I stuck my tongue out to lick it off the side. Hehe.

Happy 16th Liam. :)

So.. it's been a while.. 

But I got Liam his sweet ass birthday present which I will send to him in Florida forthwith. I'm excited.

I'm mad, though. I'm not allowed to speak to one of my best friends due to some major acceptance issues with his madre.. apparently I'm a bad influence. Which is bullshit. I was just the only person who would support him through things his family wouldn't. He can't even look me in the eyes anymore.
We'll find a way around it.

Wal Mart is so gross!
But they're prices are so nice.

Alright. My last weekend as a sophomore.
Friday was spent with Liam and Chris as we went to the Rocky Horror Picture Show once again at the Naro. Every time there's something different; this time there was a couple having sex back behind us in the audience, and everyone in the theatre had a good time with that.
Saturday Kyle and I drove around in his sweet ride. Later us, Chris, Miranda, and Tyler went to see the DaVinci code, which was alright, but convening with everyone at Barnes and Noble with some messy sushi from Harris Teeter was fun. Justin and Miranda spent the night.

Sunday Liam, my dad and I went out on the jet skiis. Shaky start, but it turned out excellent. Rope swings, 30 foot wake, jellyfish stings, and fifty million doughnuts or 180s or whatever they are...Well I'm glad that Liam got to come out with me before he leaves. Which happens in about 3 days. bleh.

I'm terribly nostalgic. I hate it how my Great Bridge friends constantly put themselves on a different plane by only talking about me being super smart in IB and using big words. The words I use aren't that big. Have I changed that much? Besides the fact that CNN is now perfectly suitable entertainment, as is a philosophy book... it's not like I don't still get the old jokes.

Today I woke up with pinata fragments, candy wrappers, earrings, and gift cars strewn all over my room. And it reminded me of how much fun last night was.
We had street racing, noise ordinance breaking, 30 people packed in my room at once, pyrotechnics in the backyard, chicken fighting, cops, and topped it off with breaking curfew. 
Basically it was awesome.
Thanks to everyone who came, and for the over $300 in money and gift cards I ended up getting.
And for the handmade gifts - I can't tell you how much it means to me; I love them! :)
I should turn 16 again next year.

Frickin. Well tomorrow's my birthday. And I had a good weekend. Went to Applebee's on Saturday with Liam and we met some great people, spent the night at his house, which was.. interesting. Fun.
Claire complimented my clothes today which made me feel stylish.
I need sleep, though, still recovering from staying up til 3. School can suck it.
I love Sufjan.

The Government AP test is over. Sweet.

I spent the day with Miranda yesterday, and it was good to know that things haven't changed between us, remembering how we used to be as we made ridiculous faces in the mirror the other day and laughed at ourselves. More good times with her than I can count.

Okay, too bad Mexican government is looking at legalizing personal amounts of marijuana, ecstasy, LSD, cocaine, and heroine, among others. That is, people over 18 posessing "personal amounts" wouldn't get jailed. The idea is that taking the focus off individuals using drugs will allow more cracking down on the major distributors, which makes sense. Drug use doesn't stop because drugs are illegal, and jails are being filled with like first time offenders of marijuana posession. Unnecessary.

Speaking spanish at Plaza Azteca is killer. I love the waiters there.

You know what, LiveJournal can suck it.
The narrator and I are very similar. What is the reason?
What is the question to the answer?
Why do we love Lenore?
She

Last night I dreamed that I killed my niece, or rather, I let her die. I didn't mean for it to happen... but she fell... and I held her in my arms and I felt her stiffen up... and she sat there like a doll, and the grief and the horror of what I had done flooded me and I cried and screamed... a life extinguished before it had the chance to live - a life that I love. A brother without a twin he would never know, a mother forever without her daughter. My fault.
That was the worst dream I've had in a very long time.

Adults that gossip. Ugh.
I'm sick of immature parents -

And neurosurgery sounds terribly fun.

Ugh. Holy PMS. I don't know what's going on today, but it's probably something to do with the fact that I need more sleep. I felt like crying at every turn today - and I did. Being a teenager - not to be cliche or teen-angsty, but it really can't be helped - is so screwed up. We can't know anything for sure, and when we think we do, one good statement can convince otherwise because our structure is weak and incomplete. And here I am crying AGAIN today becase it's almost 11 o'clock and I just want to be SLEEP tonight. And the AP test is in like 2 weeks. 2 vocab quizzes tomorrow. Goverment and English tests next week. I wish I was well-rounded and more intelligent.

Last night I was on my sister's couch intermittently watching C-SPAN while reading a book about cognitive neuroscience. Like.. who does that?

And why are there no attractive lesbians?

Thunderstorm today, even if it wasn't that bad ass - mostly just rain. I had to take my book to the porch and sit while it rained. I was cold and a little nostalgic. I like it that no one's around today. Parents are out. Not for long.

It took until 1973 for the American Psychiatric association to remove homosexuality from the list of mental illnesses.

no.  
So I've been relocated upstairs with red walls, yellow light, and shaggy carpet. I really like it. The novelty is excellent right now but I know it won't last.

Doing some research for my report on 1984 I remembered room 101, and I wonder what it would be for me (Basically it's the worst of your worst fears). Maybe looking into the future and seeing myself become a radical right-wing Christian. Or being locked in a room full of mosquitoes.

Was it when we declared America a state of liberty and equality
Or allowed Blacks and Women equal rights
That the consensus was to leave gays out of it,
As subhuman, unnatural, and unworthy of the rights of any American?
Progression is constantly frustrated by Tradition, which is
constantly becoming obsolete.

Most times I wish life could be like a Sigur Ros video, where everyone is youthful and beautiful. I could just fly off a seaside cliff, or play in the black snow post-apocalypse. We could live in slow motion.
