Like my title? Its a mash up of some things that happened today, just one of the longest days of my life. I have been having the longest days of my life for what seems like a month now, but I know it is only about two weeks.
Anyway I gave up on this blog, but I'm back, so Hello Blog! and minimal followers, who don't really need to read my blog because they see me more than my mother does.
Today starts with yesterday.
Yesterday 5th block. After a week in which I was ready to snap, and I did (once), and a week just like that preceding it, I became extremely grateful for the following. (Sorry if you have heard this story a few hundred times, but as I said: the followers of this blog see me more than my own mother does)
THE FOLLOWING: We were in the middle of SUPA Bio when Brian Allen says to Ms. Ali. "Ms. Ali, you should make me pancakes." To which she basically said "Okay, as long as you don't make fun of my cooking." That was the catalyst (haha I am learning!) for what turned into a totally random breakfast party for absolutely no reason other than the fact that Brian had been craving pancakes. It was great, our class is tiny so we feasted when it came time to eat (meaning today), there were giant pancakes, butter, syrup, jam, cobbler (made by me), brownies, hot chocolate, orange juice, apple juice, chips, etc. It was so satisfying to have one break in the middle of the busiest time of year.
There were some other things that happened today, like this dumb jeopardy game in English, which I guess isn't dumb, I just don't like jeopardy games, especially when my team is failing by an embarrassing amount and it looks like it is my fault. Then there was this guest speaker from OCRRA who spoke during health, she felt the need to pause at least three seconds after every single word she said, so I fantasized about spontaneous combustion, because at least that would be interesting.
The Blood Drive.
All week long I have been eating more, trying to gain weight. Although I haven't had that much time to eat, so I have basically been maintaining a stable weight. I worked out all sorts of plans, but I did not expect that I would have to be obese to donate blood, but that is the requirement. So of course, being turned down from doing something I teared up and had to run to the bathroom to collect myself. I kept my head down when I passed teachers I knew, but I still had an avocado pit stuck in my throat. When I got to my SAT class, the 4 kids in there asked where I was and I choked out the answer. They said I was selfless, but then I thought about it. I know I want to give blood to save lives, but I don't know why I am so intent on it. There are other things I can do to save a life. I mean I want to give blood, and I used to pray that I would be O so I could give more blood. I didn't even think that it would mean if I ever needed blood it might be hard to get until someone mentioned it to me.
Okay this last part shouldn't be short, but it will be cuz I'm done.
Annie's Party (after rehearsal of course) it was so fun. It was like we were one big happy, yelly, slightly dysfunctional family. I enjoyed that, and if I don't have a voice at all tomorrow that is perfectly okay, because tonight was fun.
Bye Blog and Followers. Maybe I will write again after this post. Probably not, actually probably yes, but not right away.
