So, I realise that I haven't blogged in ages... or visited much. And I've kind of sucked at keeping people current with my life.
And forgive me if I am brief, but I am on my own time, and at the rare point I get my own time, anymore, I steal moments or more of sleep. If I am lucky.
I did well at Regional Latin Competition (3rd, speech. 3rd, myth; certamen came to a tiebreaker for second place. We lost the tiebreaker), and I am moving on to State. It will be April 15-19, starting the day after my sixteenth birthday.
I will therefore not be able to celebtare my birthday, this year.
We have a nice round of standardized tests next week. FCAT reading and math. We have a math test the day of the FCAT, which is super rotten. I also have a creative writing piece for English due next week, as well. I am using the story I had begun to post here (my last post entitled "Chapter 1," which I never finished posting due to a lack of interest).
I got promoted in Journalism-- Assistant News Editor, from a lowly staff writer. A first year journalism student has never gotten promoted, before.
I finally wrote up my high school resume-- it only took 6 hours... :P
I am also stage manager of the school play, and props master. That has been keeping me at the school until 6 each school day, and at school for rehearsals on Saturday. Thursday-Sunday of next week are performances of that.
I broke up with Thomas, and am alone, again. It is better this way, though, despite forsaking the only man I ever truly loved or trusted, and despite the loneliness.
Mom is on a manic, right now, really badly. I'm getting close to ripping my hair out, or stabbing my eardrums with a ballpoint pen; at least then I would not have to hear her.
Sunny is getting better, but she is still changed. She's going to prom, though, with a really sweet (super gorgeous) junior. I've interrogated him, and threatened him if he ever broke her heart. He and I are at a complete understanding, and I trust him with her.
Sunny wants me to go to prom, too, but I have to be asked, first. And I haven't. And I doubt if I will. I'm not sure what I lack, but it seems I've a shortcoming of some sort that averts guys to wanting to ask me to dances, and dates, and other teenage stuff-- despite the fact that there is plenty of persistent interest. That, and Thomas, among other things contribute to the loneliness I have learned to live with.
It sucks not to feel good enough.

I miss you guys, a lot. And I'm sorry I haven't gotten a chance to keep y'all updated...

    You're damn right I miss you Anza. Well, that is great about your Latin competition, though I know it must have been a bummer to lose on a tie breaker. But heck you'll do better next time and at the State level Great on your journalism! Perhaps you can blog one of your articles every once in a while. That would be interesting to read. And you don't lack anything. You're a knock out. *gves a wolf whistle* And tremendously smart. Some lucky guy is going to be swept off his feet. Don't worry about that stuff. Do well in school.

    By the way, do you like my long blonde hair? I grew it since you were last here.

    Yes, I do miss you. =(!
    Well done to Assistand News Editor and your Latin comp. *wow*

    [quote]but it seems I've a shortcoming of some sort that averts guys to wanting to ask me to dances, and dates, and other teenage stuff[quote] SMART people go through that, because they're not interested in drama and two week relationships... you're a smart person. A very, very smart person. That's bound, unfortunately, to set you apart. As Virg. said- don't worry about that stuff. ;P

    I miss you too, even though we last spoke not more than a week ago.

    And hey, I'd ask you to prom if we weren't so far apart.
    (As it appears, I'm a dateless too.)

    Dori-- I'd definitely go to prom with you, were you closer. You're so flattering
    Virgie-- I'd have to retype them all, to do so, or I could just be smart, and link y'all to the newspaper online. Yes, our web design teacher really rocks and got our paper online.

    Virgie, and Becca-- smart people need a special somebody, too.

    Sure why don't you link us, but I'm surprised you don't keep a Word copy on your computer? You don't type on an old fashion typewriter, do you? Now I've got this image of you at the old typewriters:

    I bet you've never even seen an old fashion typewriter. I'm probably one of the few here who actually had to use one.

    My mom has one. I linked in the last message.
    and it goes through final revision before it's published, so I don't have the final copies of anything.

    Oh, I completely agree with that, I'm just saying you're too smart to put up with crap from people, and especially at your age, being smart IS going to set you apart from the majority of your peer group.

    *smiles* Sounds like Becca has personal experience to share?
    And tell me this-- Ben posed this question. He said that John treated me like crap for three and a half years, and Thomas was borderline abusive. So what's with me, and being attracted to guys that don't treat me as they should?

    I can't answer why but you need to change that. If a guy doesn't treat you with respect and courtesy (and I'm not saying you're never going to disagree or argue) then you need to dump him. He's no good.

    Well, I try.


    And for the record, Virgil: I, too, have seen a typewriter (my dad owns one!).
