Wow, I can't believe I've been posting on this thing regularly for over a year now, that's pretty crazy. It's just interesting to go back and kindda read what's been going on and how I've been feeling and stuff.
Things have been falling into place pretty well recently, I was afraid at the end of this school year everything would still be separate strands of rope, but things seem to be coming together quite nicely. I now know how much car insurance costs, it's absolutely ridiculous, my truck costs me 190 bucks a month just for liability, that's pretty steep if you ask me. It must just be North Carolina.
Prom is coming up pretty soon as well. I'm excited about going, but I feel pretty bad about a couple things regarding the dance. I put a down payment on a tux yesterday, it's pretty cool I guess.
Drug testing... this is the new thing going around Dare County Schools. Basically anybody that takes advantage of any kind of extra stuff done by the school, aka: Parking, Sports, Clubs, Plays. Can be randomly drug tested next year. The teachers will be tested as well. Now, the Outer Banks is pretty notorious for drugs, and the school system wants to keep the problem out of the schools, hah good luck. Sure, they'll randomly test, but I can promise you that the art dept. will be targeted first haha. I think it's pretty bad when the schools don't trust students enough to make a choice for themselves. Searching the school with drug dogs is one thing, but invading the privacy of the students is something else.
Graduation... not allowed to wear flip flops.... bastards...

Wow, three days in a row? Weird eh? I know. Anyhoo got some more info on graduating today, that's pretty cool. I'd also like to mention my "comment whores" I think it's pretty cool that people I'll probably never meet are reading up on my blog, even though it's not really that interesting.
Plans for next year.... Well I'll be attending COA and hopefully getting an apartment with a couple of my friends, that'll be pretty cool. When this school year started I had no intentions of going to a community college. In fact, I wanted to go to a 4 year big school and start completely new... again. Something changed my mind though, which when I think about it, I kindda stayed here for the wrong reasons. Then again, everything happens for a reason though right?
People are so interesting, if I didn't plan on majoring in theatre, I would definately concider majoring in psychology or sociology, or however you spell it. People are just incredible, no matter how well you know one person, you'll never be able to predict what another person will do. We are powered by intellect, free will and emotion. 3 things that when combined together, make for a very unpredictable outcome. But, if humans are so unpredictable, why do certain social patterns appear? Facing the door in an elevator, or saying "I'm sorry" when you accidentally touch somebody. Kindda weird.
Poor Micheal Jackson, he can never get a break. I feel bad for the guy. It's pretty clear to me that some people just love to take advantage of oppertunities given to them, which isn't really a bad thing, unless it causes pain to another person. Poor MJ has been the target time and time again. Well done with the ramblings.

This year has been pretty good for the most part. When I look back on it, yea I've had some pretty shitty times, but all those were pretty much nothing compaired to all the good things that happened. At the start of the year John and I made a promise to not let anything slow us down and to do as much as we could. Well I tried to stick to that as much as possible, and I dont' have many regrets.
Guess what? It's spring! Spring is so awesome, there is like little flowers everywhere, birds singing, deer playing in the woods, people seem to just be more happy in the spring time. I guess its the weather n stuff. I gotta admit, the winter blows, and I was just really down this past winter. Spring is a time for rebirth though and it's a wonderful spring thus far.
Oki dookie, next topic for comments is this: If you could go back and change one thing you did this year, what would it be and why?

Have fun with this

OMG I'm so freezing right now. No heat in the house and its windy and 40 degrees outside. Anyhoo just doing a tiny update. I'm finding kind of interesting, from my point of view anyways, how somebody's feelings towards a person can change so quickly and drastically. I've seen it happen time and time again this year, and I was just thinking about it. How does that happen? or Why is the better question. Do explain.

Another really quick post

Power just went out but I found a song that kindda discribes this year in HS.

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last

wake me up when september ends

like my fathers come to pass

seven years has gone so fast

wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again

falling from the stars

drenched in my pain again

becoming who we are

as my memory rests

but never forgets what I lost

wake me up when september ends

summer has come and passed

the innocent can never last

wake me up when september ends

ring out the bells again

like we did when spring began

wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again

falling from the stars

drenched in my pain again

becoming who we are

as my memory rests

but never forgets what I lost

wake me up when september ends

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last

wake me up when september ends

Well, senior year is comming to an end soon. Just a little over a month until graduation. Many many things have happened this school year, some of which I was proud of... some not so proud of. Regrets? Not really, I don't regret anything I've done, I am dissapointed some things didn't end up the way I wanted them to, or hoped them to, but since when does everything go perfectly?
The reason I'm posting is I just can't sleep. I've been thinking about graduating and how the first major part of my life is over. Public education makes us keep track of the time through semesters or school years, less of the end of the year in January thing. When somebody says "last year" you automatically think last school year, it's just kindda interesting that after this point in my life, last year will no longer mean, last school year.
I still have some fun things planned though. I've been waiting 4 years to do a senior prank, and by God I'm going to do one. It bothers me though that some people have such little faith, you gotta keep being optomistic people! Where there is a will, there is a way. I have dubbed the prank/s "Operation Dog Ear". Although I can't list specific things that will be acomplished I can say that we will have one hell of a cook out on the beach.
Speaking about pranks and graduation and all this makes me think of the reasons I'm glad I'm graduating. I definately won't miss the drama/backstabbing/bitchyness/cattyness of high school. People worry about the most petty shit, and it gets annoying sometimes. I know earlier this year I can't say I wasn't dramatic about some stuff, but when I look back on some things I realize how stupid it is to worry about. Maybe I'm getting back into my old state of mind that life goes on, and life sucks so get a helmet kindda thing. Which is good, you can't let the small stuff bring you down.
Ahhh yes... the Senior Will. The thing that allows seniors the chance to make sure they are remembered next year. I think my next post is going to be a senior will, one that I could write and not expect the school to publish. School limited us to 150 words, most people can get out what they want to say in that, but I just gotta take it to the next level.
I'm just sitting here rambling on I guess. What I'm thinking about right now is how people talk about "being friends" sometimes. I guess I'm in an interesting, well not really, situation. I think that if you really want to be friends with somebody, you wouldn't always talk about it, you would just do it. Somethings though make it hard to be friends with certain people. I guess everybody has something about them that is annoying, or that you don't like. Nobody is perfect, that's a given. Everybody can get on somebodies nerves sometimes. When that happens though, if you really are friends you won't let it bother you too much. Just like I said before, the little things are worthless sometimes. Anyhoo, who wants to be friends with somebody that is very very critical of you? Well I guess if you were friends before and they became that way, it would be a change of pace, but you could cope with it. I was thinkin, people like my grandfather are hard to get along with, because nothing is ever done to his standards. Nothing is perfect or acceptable to people like that, it's hard to deal with sometimes.
Wow, its 12:09 now. New comment game. Favorite word... just post that as your comment, we'll see what kindda words we get. (This should be interesting)

Later On

Lol, I love how totally random people read my blog, it's pretty cool. My new friend is the "comment whore" Anyways just got done doing a lot of scholarship stuff, the real work is going to be this weekend though. Going to start a new thing on my blog called "song of the moment" basically the song I'm listening to while writing my blog, or the one that I'm listening to as I begin to write, just sumthin kindda weird I'd like to put in. So todays "song of the moment" is Red Hot Chili Peppers- By The I must admit I have illegally downloaded this song and should be fined an extream amount of money for all the stolen material on my computer, but I really don't care.

Starting a new and interesting project hopefully, a movie entitled "Senior Spring". This spring, Austin, David, Caroline and I are going to film our everyday lives and the parties, then edit it and transfer it hopefully to Dvds for each of us. I think that would be pretty cool, just to have something to remember this place and these wonderful people by. Maybe Haley will give us some help with all the technical stuff, I can't really do that on my computer anymore. Anyhoo I'm going to try to update more often now, although the sun is comming out and I'm going to be gone more often now than before. Later On

Whoa... quick update this time eh? I can't help but express my excitement for this summer, I can't wait. We're going to have the greatest time ever, my friends are comming down and we're just gonna have a lot of fun and stuff. Of course there is the graduation parties too... Mwarr. Hrm... what to talk about. Oh yea, well nothing really I guess lol. Just a tiny little update for the dedicated readers of my awesome life. Holy crap, I wrote my last will and testiment today too, that was a cool experience. Anyhoo Later On

-FIN-

Wow, the past week has been pretty interesting. Got to meet a new person recently, Caroline's friend Megan. She's pretty chill, a little quiet but over all a really cool person. Hrm... This spring break was well, mostly relaxed. Right when break started we recieved some bad news about Mrs. Kraft, she died on good friday. So so so unexpected, and even after the funeral it's still so hard to believe.

Well year is almost over, prom is comming up and all that fun stuff. I still don't know if I'm going to go to prom yet or not, alot of things are just up in the air right now. Had a pretty cool Easter. Also my grandpa kicked his girlfriend out, I thought that whole situation was kind of ammusing. I guess I have a sick sense of humor sometimes.

So long, Farewell... I'll remember you always
