I'm not going to the Band Geek's show. Goodwill/costume shopping is waiting untill tomorrow after rehearsal. I have such a busy night planned on saturday: rehearsal, goodwill, and roughly an hour to get ready for the dance at 8 or 9ish, and that ends at 11-unless something happens with my date/the group of people we're going with.
Right now, I'm at Ruth's place. My favorite hoodie that I basically live in is missing and I feel kind of naked without it right now. I swear to god her house absorbs important stuff if I leave it there. I'm going to get pissed if it's gone for a long time. That jacket is kind of important for school, because I have a lot of morning classes by the window. And Coach Jefforson NEVER lets you move seats. Ever.
I've missed Roo. I vented to her about Alex. I really needed to tell her. She cares about me enough to be frank when I need it in moments like this. She's so skepitical about the whole thing. I love her, but god damnit, I can take care of this. I know how to go about school dances now.
Plus the ones at Uni are so insanely chill. I know everyone worth talking to. A bunch of Starkids said they were going. It won't be awkward. It won't. Compared to homecoming, nothing is awkward.
We won't be by ourselves at Minneci's, eating crutons.
-shudder-
I just really hope I can get the album from whoever is going to be selling them at school. Eva said in Art that it sounds good.
Speaking of which. First semester, I took Cultural Arts, which was so freaking stupid and easy. The only reason the course title sounds so sophisticated is because colleges aren't going to take it seriously if they know what the class really is.
YOU MAKE FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS. FOR A FREAKING GRADE.
Even the art teacher calls it her "crafts class". Yup. Like Crafts time. Like what I used to do by myself in the playroom when I was little.
The class sucked. The kids in it were stupid and took it as a blow off class. I don't think my counselor even knew that I actually know how to do most of the stuff in a "craft class".
So now I'm in Art Survey 1 for second. Its basically an overview of a bunch of different tecniques,and the people in the class actually want to be there, or at least nice people, anyway. Right now we're doing a demension and line study where we draw these white wooden cylinders that she arranges on a table in the middle of the room. I've seen drawings from last semester and I saw the figures every day during Cultural arts, so I know there's a sphere, a cone, and a few other things.
Its great drawing practice. I've really liked being in this class so far because I get a lot of compliments from people around me. Eva sometimes looks over my shoulder and watches me draw and oohs and aahs over it. Its really good for my little bitty artistic self esteem, plus I'm getting some awesome realism practice with shading and drawing from a reference.
Finally. A class I actually am doing something useful in. I love the art teacher anyway. She carries most of the arts program by herself, except for I think maybe 2 art classes? Nuts. She's such a good person. I think she's more observant and knowledgable than I think. If I'm ever an art teacher, I want to be just as enthusiatic and kooky. She gives this pride and confidence to everyone who tries. She pushes people to do thier best. I love that.
-warm fuzzies-
Ruth just got home from her horseback riding lesson. Plus I'm about to go into my Mr. Fones stupid touch typing method mode. Which gets trippy.
Hasta.
