12-10-13

aujourd'hui c'est le neuf décembre deux mille treize

Today is December 9th, 2013.

/begin rant

So ever since October-ish, my neighborhood switched busses from the calm and quiet 16, to the ratchet and loud 63. Bus 16 ran a short route, a reasonable one. We picked up many, but it was people around where we live. Bus 63 drives all the fucking way to a different fucking school district. No. That's not okay.

Today was a normal day. My mother was angry at me, so I went to take the bus. I leave at 6:25 in my winter coat. I walk to the bus stop, which is thankfully rather close to my house. I wait for 5 minutes and someone shows up. It's getting close to 6:40, and no bus. We bitch and complain a bit more, by this time out numbers doubling so we had four people. At 6:43 the bus driver comes. We happily shove each other out of the way for the warmth of the bus. Which feels like heaven. At first.

So we pull out and we look at the main road. 256. It's like rush hour. Why do they even call it that? NO ONE IS RUSHING. EVERYONE IS GOING .00000001 nanometers an hour! So me and my neighbors are just sitting here. At 7:05 we are normally at school. At 7:05 we are 5 minutes away from our stop. Did I mention we have to drive to a different school district area? Yeah, our route is stupid.

We drive all the fucking way there. It takes two fucking hours. The heat goes out halfway there. Two fucking hours in, we haven't even gotten to the first stop. I was so bored. So. Bored. I even started texting my mom.

So we get to the stop and one guy gets on. So we get to the next stop and a few more people get on. Suddenly we stop. We are suddenly accepting Jr High students on our bus now because the Jr High busses are late.No! We were here first assholes!

But anyway we go back to get them Jr high kids. So we finally head back to school. We are all sitting 3 to a seat and 90% of the people on here are stereotypical ratchet black people. They are all wearing this nasty shit ass perfume /cologne and are all loud. Someone tried to start a fight with a girl sitting with me. Gooood.

I got to Bio class and everyone looked at me like: Where have you been? I thought you were skipping school!

OH YES I WAS JUST HAVING A GRAND OL TIME!!

P.S: while all this was happening, a school district 10 minutes away from us closed

So yeah. That's why I wasn't in a good mood.

We also had an orchestra concert today, and we rocked it. But of course jazz band took our show. Everyone loves band and not the orchestra or choir. Who can blame them. Band people have "everything" and are "better than everyone else, especially the orchestra" the "trumpets are the best instrument and require the most effort". 

I will burn all your instruments and burn them in hell. They will soon be met with your bodies. See you then.

Last minute, my teacher decided they should shove the chamber out to play. So me and my partner awkwardly find our way down. Everyone looks at us in a very confused manner as the 9 chamber members go down to play. While we are playing, a wave of anxiety hits me and my knees are shaking just like old times. Parents of the band, choir (symphonic and woman's), chorale and the huge orchestra itself. Watching. Me. I used to be able to shake it off. Why would they watch me? But I felt so vulnerable. Sigh. So, after we play, we calmly walk out of the room, leaving the auditorium. My teacher tells us the orchestra is playing next so all of a sudden everyone is sprinting in their heels. Me and my partner have to go around the huge curtain in the back, our heels slamming against the theatre floor. We basically shove everyone's stand aside cause our teacher put us in the front.

And that's my day.

12/2/13

This past week hasn't been doing myself justice; I can say that now. But I've been getting by, and I'm happy to say that (meanwhile typing this: omf an episode of meganebu comes out today!! Shit I have to type) with two good friends, many, many teen romance books on wattpad written by amazing authors, and a very gruesome book, I've been getting by!

It's nothing new to me that high school, for the most part, is going well. If you're a dedicated reader, you would know that even on the day before school, the only thing I was worried about was my locked not opening. For the record- it opened first try. I've met so many amazing people this year, due to my extreme involvement- I suppose- in a lot of activities.

In 7th grade I did summer gym (just for the Creds) and met a LOT of high schoolers. But I became close to Scarlet and Maggie the most. Turns out Scarlet is the president of the one and only Anime Club! (good for her, she deserves it!)

Another one of the Anime Club members, Selena, I met through In The Know. I also met Hillary, Selene, Mica and Maya (who I will probably be very upset about when they graduate this year.. But good luck! <3). 

In The Know is the best club I could ask for. I really like the people there, and we are really just a group of "nerds" who know a lot of things about random things.. (tHEREEEES HYDROGEN AND HELIUM, THEN LITHIUM BERYLLIUM, BORON CARBON EVERYWHERE NITROGEN ALL IN THE AIR AND OXYGEN SO U CAN BREATHE -coughs- Nevermind.) And I couldn't ask for better club advisors. Honestly. jUST LIKE A HOURGLASS, THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES! (Soaps have finally become useful!!)

Orchestra. A group of.. Ffs. At least 30 people. Maximum around 60. We have mostly all been together since the 6th grade, though there are those seniors and juniors who we never have really met. I really do like Orchestra, it's fun to talk to everyone there. Well, most of the people. (Viola swag represent!) Ugh but when the band people freaking. Take over the room. iTS SO FUNNY TO WATCH THE TEACHER YELL AT THEM TO LEAVE. oh you band fuckers never learn. I mean I have my friends that are in the band, but some inSTRUMENTS OMF.
The percussion guy that plays with the orchestra sometimes is hot. But his attitude is shit XDD.

Chamber. A group of 8-10 individuals who are dedicated and/or auditioned and past musicians within orchestra. I'm so glad to see that I'm neither the only freshman or the only viola! The only viola- a senior I believe named Heather is a rather strong player and it's an honor being with her. :) Everyone has that certain flair they add to the group!

I've been avoiding drama well this year so far. eXCEPT JENNA AND ANAND ALWAYS KISS IN FRONT OF ME FOR FUCKS SAKE! sTOP! Waaaaah!

But for reaaaal. Maegan hates drama. Ffs. Last year was awful.

There's this girl who is friends with another one of my friends- definitely one of my closest friends. Will call the first girl FU and the other girl, who is my friend, LU.

So. LU and FU were bff's looooong before I talked to LU. And suddenly around this fall, FU came up to me and was like "F U! (Hahahahah) You stole my best friend from me! She was the only person I cared about except for my boyfriend and a few others! ( yeah that makes sense!)" annnnyway, she basically went on and on and on about how I'm rude, careless and similar stuff. She really makes me angry. And depressed, but I try not to think about it. If she is trying to get me down, then that means I'm above her.

We had a fight this weekend, FU And I. I didn't reply to one of her messages and she blew up. Became absolutely insane. I figured FU already told LU about it, and considering I always think they are really close, I didn't say anything. LU and I talked shortly after though, and she understood what I said, and more importantly believed me. I'm blessed for every friend I have.

However, on a sad note, one of my friends named Maddi, left a rather strange message about leaving. I thought the worst of course, but I'm trying to push that out of my mind.

I guess an important way to sign this off is that I love my friends. Every singular one of them.

I love you, Anna and Dan.
I don't know what I could do without both of you, considering both of you have helped me so much.

Anna, we will turn you into that brave girl. I know we can. You're beautiful, and I want you to know that c:

Dan, happy early anniversary c;
