Prom Date.

Prom Fashion Show was tonight. My dress was huge, and had many uncountable layers, which is why I would never really wear anything like it to prom. But I also got to turn down my first offer to prom.
It's funny really, because this kid, I find him to be somewhat annoying. But he says he asked me because I have pretty eyes... I'd prefer my prom date think I have some better assets, if you know what I'm saying.

He's going on about how nice I am, time to let him down easy.

Italy

So, my plan is to use half of my graduation money to go to Italy this summer.

After doing some research, I found a site that would give me 4 days in a hotel in Rome, for about $1,500 per person.
Food is a major issue, luckily, Italy has food that can be very cheap.

Here's the other part of the plan. I need to meet a nice Italian boy, man, and I am sure I will be more cultured after the trip too.

The only problem I am having is finding someone to go with me. Boy, or girl, I don't really care, although I would feel more safe with a guy. I need someone that gets along easily with others, even if they don't speak English.

I Thought It Would Never Happen

But I found coffee that is better than Rams Horn's coffee, and fifty cents cheaper.
Garden City Cafe. Pure awesome, and I was even told that the coffee wasn't as good as usual, but that may just be because of all the smoke that engulfed our table, anyways, it was still pretty great.

My Shutter Island review:
It was great. Suspenseful, I was dying to know what the hell was going on. Thrilling, but not really, I only jumped twice. I can't think of a good adjective, but it was amazing how it ended. Not in an, "Oh my Darwin, I didn't see that coming!" amazing, but a "Wow, I can't decide if I am happy with that." kind of ending.

I would have to say, out of the three movies I have seen this year, it was the best.

My birthday.

I am supposed to be writing a paper on that right now. The rough draft is due tomorrow. So far, I have a bunch of random facts thrown together, and horribly organized.
I love to write, but when it comes to a topic that I really don't give a shit about, I write about them like I don't give a shit about them.
This attitude will probably have to go away for awhile, considering it's a research techniques class.
I have decided to post this blog for no reason. I am just procrastinating.

Before and after. Ten hours of work.

Soft kiss and wine

What a pretty friend of mine
We're finally intertwined
Nervous and shy for the moment we will come alive
Tonight
Secret valentine

So, snow day, I called it, as always. I am spending the day cleaning out my room so I can get all my new furniture this weekend. I have a lot of shit to get rid of.

As for Valentines day, this is the first one in two years that I don't have anyone to "be mine!" so here's the plan:
Plan A: Me, Alex, and her single 3o-something year old aunt Maria are having a sleep over. Watching sad movies, and eating some food.
Plan B: I am tagging along on Alex and Andy's date, if they are even having one.
Plan C: I'm going to hangout with JS after he's done hanging out with his woman.

Plan C sounds good, but so does A. I'm not really a plan B kind of girl!

112 days till the last day of high school (:

In all reality, making this kind of thing is very juvenile, and I know it. But it was a fun process making it, so I thought I would share the crazy things that go through my mind.

This is Jordan Maben

He is a musical genius, and I'm not just saying that. He is in orchestra, plays piano, and various string instruments too. He composed a song; so me and my girlfriends demanded he play it for us. I wish I had a better camera on my phone because it only would record 30 second parts, and the sound quality is shit. But here are two parts. My four friends and I were literally brought to tears while he played.



In short; I love my friends.
