I had my piano solo today. The propanelol that I take to keep me from shaking uncontrollably from nervousness when I perform is a double-edged sword: sometimes, if I don't concentrate on it, it prevents me from putting emotion into a song. And let me tell you, The Girl with the Flaxen Hair by Debussy requires emotion (go listen to it- it's amazing). Usually I play it quite well, but I was kind of blah today, and my attempt to get around holding several notes did not go unnoticed or, I suspect I will find out tomorrow, unthwarted.
So I don't think I got a superior, which means that repeating last year's superiors-on-everything district-state sweep is impossible already, now in the first stage.
Blah.
I'm really tired. I've been staring at Facebook, reading blogs, posting in forums, checking my email, and reading XKCD comics rather than studying or doing my homework, so I am up very late every night. It's my fault I know.
Tomorrow is senior skip day (stoner day, Colombine day, Hitler's birthday), but I'm going to school. :-( I skipped school once in eigth grade to go to a peace rally protesting the Iraq war right after it started. My mom wouldn't or couldn't excuse me, so a few friends and I just left. I'm glad I did it. I've never regretted it. But it dropped several of my grades because work from unexcused absences can't be made up (I got my only C that quarter, ironically in orchestra). I can't do that now, because my grades actually matter, and I don't have a noble cause for missing school. And having your parents call you out really is cheating.
Nothing left to do now but go dominate Pat in Mario Kart. He doesn't know yet how amazing I am.

oh hey guess what? i dominated *you* :D
again, thanks for letting me come, and stop getting down, smile, do your best, everything will work out lass.
Dude Pat, how many video game fights are you going to pick? It's only a matter of time before your demise in Super Smash Brothers.
I think you're trying to compensate for something here...
ooohhh, snap! now i'm really going to rock you shea. dang girl, you'd better watch out! :)
and i don't pick fights, well i guess i did with you, but this one started out with me simply asking if she wanted to play, then she was the one that jacked up the stakes.
with how much you are hyping up this smash brothers duel, and with like seven years before its actually going to happen since you "are busy with real obligations" or some crap like that, you'd better bring your A game.
hey, what happened to our tie? i so legitimately won that first one and did alright in the 3rd and 4th...
haha, of course we tied lindsay, hence the big ol' smiley after my comment. you did very well, very well indeed
