This morning I wore what I wore yesterday after school. I had spaghetti sauce on it, and I also managed to drip some ovaltine on it too. Sweet. I'm glad I brought my striped sweater that I bought at Goodwill with Laura. Jerel was with that girl again in the morning, and when he saw me they both got up and left. I thought it was really weird. Carina told me he's dating some girl. Another lie from Jerel. I don't think I can be his friend. He flirts with a lot of girls, I feel bad for whoever he's dating. But maybe its an agreement they have with each other, I doubt it. He's a lowlife.
Also, this kid with glasses like Raven's, and Derek's girlfriend were staring me down in the hall today. I think there's a rumor going on about me because I saw her again today and she told her friend something, quietly, and they she was like, "Really?" I have no idea what's going on, and I'm probably just imagining it all.
In history we're watching some movie about Martin Luther, the priest who wrote the 95 theses of how the church should govern and blahblahblah. Religion is all I ever hear about nowadays. That's exaggerating, but I don't care.
In journalism we got a project due next Friday. An editorial, worth 50 points (whatever that means) on something interesting. I was going to ask the kids on the bus about what the topic should be, but that didn't happen.
In novel I went to the library and talked to Kendra, who's in my class, about something. I can't remember about what, but I know it wasn't as awkward as I thought it would have been. When I got back to class they were talking debating smoking and chewing tobacco.
In English we worked on our Funny In Farsi papers.
In art I finished my project and sat around, occasionally shading in the four circle exercise. All Tyler talks about is weed.
During lunch, Murphy, TJ, Derek, and the gay kid all came over to us because their friend Dan was reading or something so they didn't want to disturb them. I was really happy they were over, regardless of the reason. TJ wants to get 666 tattooed on his ass and I told him it was a bad idea -Murphy also finds it stupid. Then I asked Derek about Gregorism because he was wearing a 'g' around his neck as a necklace. I lent him the scissors in order for it all to happen. I also then told him about the shirt situation. The gay kid was asking about some other kid that he thought was just adorable and had to be gay. Lunch was great.
I pretty much failed the chemistry quiz we took today, but I got it back and I'm fixing it this weekend. I'm glad that's an option.
In geometry I didn't do anything.
The bus ride home was all right, I guess. I mean, Jerel was sitting with some girl up front and Kevin and Dan were like, "JEREL, COME BACK!" but he didn't until the girl got off the bus. Carina got mad at me for something. Jerel's little brother came back and sat near us and then stared at me for what seemed like a lifetime. When Carina wanted to move, I sat up in the very back of the bus on the ledge it has for shit. I felt pretty kickass. Jerel liked my sweater, and I hate saying I'm glad he did. Then when Jerel got off the bus, Carina still wanted me to get up, so I sat next to Dan. I really wished I didn't, but I did and there was no changin' it. We reintroduced ourselves and I told him I thought it was awkward, but he didn't seem to mind because we weren't sitting on top of each other. I call Carina princess with the attitude Laura would use when she called me princess. It's not the same though, don't get mad Laura.
Dan came over around 4:30 to give Carina her guitar lesson. She was in the bathroom in the basement and I was walking away, into the main area, and I heard Dan coming down the stairs. Carina was talking to me from the bathroom, and when Dan came down I didn't tell her. It was really funny and we both got a kick out of Carina fuss over her hair. I wish she would have said something about her period, or something else embarrassing. We made a padclops though. She put a pad on the wall, I gave it fangs, and then we taped one eye above it. It was hilarious and I don't think Dan even noticed it. I was playing The Beatles RockBand the whole time, and then he made fun of me for playing on medium. Asshole. I told him not to teach Carina anymore Green Day and he agreed to it, even though I know he likes them because I lurked his Facebook.
Tim came to pick us up for the Perish Picnic an hour later, and then they fussed over whose Wii remote was whose. It really bothered me that it became a big deal, its just a Goddamn controller. I feel like they think they're better than everyone.
When we got to the Perish Picnic I was pissed. Tim was asking Carina personal questions about not knowing her father, when he clearly knows that I do not know my father. He made big deal out of it. It got on my last nerve, to say the least, and I was really glad I had my cigarettes with me. We walked up to QT and Walgreens so Carina could get cash off of her debit card. Milkduds are 20cents cheaper at QT, but Pepsi is 40cents more. My mom called me on our way back and told me about the house in PSL some more, she sent me an email of three houses and I had to guess which one we're going to live in.

-That one. Laura doesn't think it fits my family's personality, but my mom loves gardening, and we'll only have two neighbors. It's perfect except that it's in PSL and not Stuart. I'm looking forward to it, not gonna lie. It'd be super nice if I could still go to County though, yaknow. But I don't see that as happening, so I'm dealing with that.
Carina got mad at me again at the Perish Picnic because I threw soda on her, hardly any, and it got in her hair and her eye. She was sticky and so she complained about it for the remaining two hours. I gave up trying to makeup with her, and just sat alone for a while. That's when Alex waved at me, but I didn't really know for sure. Then I decided I was going to go make friends with the kid that waved to me, Alex, and it was mainly because I had seen him before. He's the No Doubt kid from Target, if any of you remember. I do, obviously. I saw him and a friend together, but my balls hadn't dropped so I went back to the car, told Carina what I was going to do, smoked, talked to Laura, and then put it all into action.
Basically what I did was jump in front of them and ask them if they wanted to be my friend. It was really stupid, but my humiliating myself for 30 seconds was totally worth it. At first they all introduced themselves as Tom. I knew that was bullshit and tried getting it out of them. But really, it's Tom, Tom, and Alex. Tom number one was a pudgy Asian kid and I was really glad he didn't go by Tommy. Tom number two was really tall, had blue eyes behind his ordinary glasses, and uses a lot of body language. Alex is the No Doubt kid, as mentioned before. I gave Tom number one my number so we could hang out some other time because this friendship really needed to work out. THey all felt bad for me because I didn't have any friends and I was a sophomore. Carina didn't talk at all, just like at Shop 'n Save. We walked around with them, mainly shadowing them, but we were all pretty involved in conversation. Tom number one is a junior at Francis Howell Central, I don't know what grade Tom number two is in, and Alex is a freshman at Central. They knew the kid with dreads, Nick, and Carina was like "SWEET!" because she wanted to be his friend, she didn't make any initiative though. I kind of did by talking to the kid standing next to him.
Tom number one told me I should go to the ska show on October 18 with them. I plan on it, and going to the mall with them. Their school isn't really that far away, I'm sure I could walk there.
I told Tom number one to give my number to the rest of them so that we were all on the same page. And our farewell was followed by hugs. I guess its something I'm going to have to adjust myself to.
This entry is as long as Laura's dick.
