Because a lot of crap's been happening lately, and I've just been too lazy to write about it.

On December... 1st, I believe it was, our school caught on FIRE. : D It was quite magical. Apparently some kid was smoking pot in the bathroom and decided to throw it into a trash can filled with flamable paper towels instead of maybe a TOILET and the flames spread from there.

We were right in the middle of taking a math quiz when the alarm went off. We went outside as if this was just an ordinary fire drill. It seemed to drag on forever, and it was GOD DAMN FREEZING OUT. The fact that I was in a short sleeved shirt didn't help, either. I recall thinking that this was probably the longest fire drill in the history of eternity when a police car pulled up, followed shortly by a fire truck.

Well, everyone now began to realize that THIS WAS NOT A DRILL and consequently freaked out. Some girls were even spazzing over the fact that their poor, poor cell phones were trapped in the burning building. I laughed so hard.

Eventually I got bored a joined my friends in doing lovely little activities; such as pulling tube socks over Connor and Mackenzie's heads, spinning them around, and seeing who can run into the most people. The final score was Connor: 5 and Mackenzie: 2. Unfortunately our little game was called to an abrupt halt when we were summoned to the elementary school's gymnasiam.

So the entire school sat in the crowded gym, spilling out into the hallways for about 2 hours. It wasn't horrible, though. Our little posse made use of the time by terrorizing unknowing peers, shrieking the theme song to Elmo's World at the top of our lungs, and playing patty cake. And I got out of two major presentations in Social Studies and Language Arts, so all was well.

In other news:

- 2nd Trimester started, and we have Industrial Tech in place of Health. So far our teacher scores OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAND on the awesome meter, and class has been pretty enjoyable. I just hope it turns out better than Health; which appeared fun at first, but turned out to be absolutely dreadful.

- I've decided to learn Korean to communicate with my foreign friend, Jenna, since we're often paired up in Science class and I think it would be easier if she knew what I meant when I told her to pass the disecting utensils.

- I got sick AGAIN. I spent two days lying on the couch watching movies and "Go Diego, Go!" ("To turn my glowstick on, shake it! C'mon, shake it! SHAKE HARDER!") My mom finally sensed that I have some kind of freakish immune system disorder and set an appointment with my doctor this Tuesday. I really hope he can fix me, my grades are suffering severely from my constant absence and my family's recieved two letters from the school board saying, "YOUR CHILD IS A HOOKEY STUDENT. TELL HER TO SET HER PRIORITIES STRAIGHT AND GET HER ASS BACK IN SCHOOL, FOO HEAD."

- I had a mental break down last monday due to my art block and being extremely over-tired. It wasn't fun. D:

- Abe and I were having a bit of a contest to see who could check out the most advanced accelerated reader book and the one with the most points. I won, but I got stuck with Moby Dick, which is probably one of the most dull books I've ever read. So far, anyway. I'm only on the second chapter. All of the illustrations of the white whale look like penises, which made me VERY HAPPY.

- My dad and brother accompanied me to County Market to buy Christmas lights and candy this morning, and I bumped into this one dude who looked a lot like Watari. He also spent a long time in the pastry section, as if doing a little shopping for a certain hunchy detective. It made my day.

Meh, this journal entry is very random. :U Please excuse any spelling/gramical errors, I'm only half awake at the moment.

That's all for now, folks~

Merry Sunday to all, and to all a good night.
