Well, today was... easy. Kinda relaxing.

I got to sleep through the first two periods at school. Teacher was reading out loud in class first period, and even though I sat right in front of her, I just laid my head down and slept. The trick is, about every ten minutes, move around a bit so they think you're not sleeping. It's worked so far. Second period was math, and yesterday I forgot that our latest assingment isn't due until tomorrow, so I didn't have to worry about it last night. Well, at least I didn't procrastinate, and it's done now, and I got a nice nap. By third period I was very well rested.

This morning didn't start out too great much. My mom decided that now that she's going back to work, and feeling bitchy, she'll share her mood with the rest of the family. All morning she was yelling at me to do something, starting with waking me up early. It's bad enough that she yells at 5:30 in the morning, but I'd rather she not talk to me, at all. She sounds very not intelegent most of the time, especially in the morning. Not to mention, I have a scheduale and pattern I keep, and when she ******** it up it screws over my day. Or at least until I get to take a nap and not listen to the most annoying teacher of the day. So that kinda cured my mom bugging me all morning. *could actually b***h about parents for a long time, so I'll just cut it off instead.*

Well, I yelled at my mom a bit, should have added that, so I'm grounded. But not really, because my mom doesn't pay enough attention to what I'm doing (and when she does I can get out of all her acusations because I'm hella good at quick answers, exuses and white lies... not that that's a good thing. But it's the truth.) Besides, she didn't say how long I'm grounded, so I don't really give a damn. *yes, I'm pissed at her. She's the new target... or not so new target... of all my pent up frustration.* So I'm gonna go to the club after school tomorrow, I'll probably bring a snack to be nice. Maybe I'll make cookies. I'm making cookies for Friday's link... but that's not important, really.

Oh! I got the highest grade on my science test! blaugh *runs around in circles happily until she smacks into a glass door* ouch. But yeah, 97%. I actually missed 2 problems, but I set the curve! I never set the curve on science tests. I kinda suck in science. But guess what! There aren't many smart people in my class. Which isn't very nice, but when I'm the only once with that high a grade, I'm not that worried. Which makes me happy because I might get an A!!!!!! (Did I mention I'm obessed with my grades? Not too much, but I want to keep my GPA from going down, which means the lowest grade I can get is an A-, and then only one.)

I also didn't do that bad on my AP Gov test. I mean, I thought I did horrible, but I didn't. I got 29 out of 33 on the multiple choice. So that's what... high B? Dunno, didn't do the math, it might be a low A. But then I got 100% on the extra credit quiz, which gives me 5 extra points (5 points goes a long way in that class). So that's happy. However, I'm worried that I didn't do that well on the essay part, which is fine cause the extra credit will make up for that, eh? I mean, it's 12 points possible, and I couldn't have missed more than 6, cause trust me, I didn't do that bad. I don't think I missed less than 8.

And I have almost no homework tonight! Just have to read the first four chapters in a book. Then no math, no japanese, no chem... I have something due in gov on Friday, but I can wait till tomorrow for it. and then Newspaper went to press today, so it'll calm down for awhile. I got to help come up with some titles for a few stories. *grins and dances again* Made me feel happy because I did something useful. Maybe I'll post my stories on here... but I don't think they're that good. Who knows. I might post a few poems I did for English, too. Oh! And the If I Were a Cat story! *makes a note to do that.*

But yeah, not much happened today. When I got home I watched Buffy for an hour and a half, then "Kiss the Girls," a movie about a cerial rapist/killer and then the guy trying to find him... wasn't bad. Ending kinda sucked. But only the very ending, the begining of the ending wasn't bad. Then I worked on the kitchen again, and killed more time watching TV. Now I'm watching Smallville, but only because The Flash is in it, and I think he's a spiffy super hero. Only because I use to watch Justice League and he kicked but on that show.

Yes I watch a lot of TV sometimes. That's because it requires little thought, and is the ultimate veging out action. Making it perfect for me when I'm stressed. Besides, I'm a sucker for a good story.

Mostly what my life is lacking right now is hanging out with friends. I just want to chat and talk about nothing for hours. Maybe get a boyfriend and snuggle while watching a movie together. That sounds fun. I just need something to take my mind off the more stressful things in life. On the brightside, if I get my college application turned in and everything done by November 5th (early decision date) than at least I'll know by mid december whether or not I'm in, and that stress goes away. Not that I won't still be worried, because then I have to figure out how to come up with 30k to go to the college I want stare but it's one step down. Meh. College will be nice. *sighs wistfully* Being a senior sucks.

Friday I need to go talk to my friend Maude. Did I mention she has cancer? Or at least she did. That's an interesting story. But she went through chemo last year and hasn't really been in school since last holloween, almost for a year now. I need to get some homework for her, because she's feeling left out, she was mostly home schooled but she took Japanese at my high school. So now I get to help her out with that. I'm one of the better students in my class, and I don't mind helping some of the other people. And especially Maude. She's sick right now though, so I'm giving her the week to get over it. Hopefully she'll get better soon.

Well, that's my current update. Can't think of much else to say at the moment.

ttyl!
