1 Highschool burnout
4 Harry Potter Premier tickets
2 Bobby Ray songs
1 Beautiful younger brother
1 Escapist Symphony of
5,000 Cascading voices, emotions, sounds colors
3 Sleepless nights escaping into
1,000,000 other facets of the world
10 Other colors that
you don't see when the sun is up
1 Leonid Meteor shower
14 Days It's been going on
4 a.m. moonset, so I can see it better
1 Cake we have to buy tomorrow
1 Month I haven't seen Molly
1 Highschool tenure I have spent worrying about her
1 Week where I would be nothing more or less than grateful if sleep wouldn't knock me off my feet
Quite so fast
5 severe Caffeine overloads
for no conceivable reason
Make for one
Motherfuckin
Great
Week.

In a horrible turn of events
- I'm a cougar
- Everyone is excessively petty, evidenced greatly by your own situations. Like seriously? Fucking almost eighteen and they're still being so goddamn petty? What is WRONG with these people?
- I completely bombed the sterling scholar interview. Lets face it, i fucking SUCK at giving interviews. I really really sucked. So much so that it would be funny to watch it on replay.

A car accident?? Holy my god. You should call me when you get time.
Yesterday, I submitted my application for the English Sterling Scholar award; more specifically for Sterling Scholar nomination. I don't actually foresee winning, for a couple reasons: Among other literary geniuses, I'm up against a girl who has a novel in the works of being published with scholastic. (SCHOLASTIC. fuck.) haha. Additionally, as I have been realizing more and more while thinking about college applications, weighted class rankings, and the likes, my grades really don't measure up. The quarters where I lacked motivation and let my dedication slip have actually summed up to impact me by now, and while I am completely satisfied with the work i put in to acheive my unweighted 3.8975, I know that I have always been capable of something considerably higher. The novel girl definitely has a 3.99 or the likes. And Sterling Scholar evaluates both sheer grade-work with writing samples so..Basically I'm screwed in both directions.
(THat's what she said)
At least I'm not as crazy as that chick. No like, she is literally insane. I've become pretty good friends with her because I sit by her in Bio, but she's prettydamn crazy. And, as I recently discovered, a compulsive liar - which I find ironic and possibly conducive to her writing, because stories are, after all, carefully fabricated, extended lies, right? ;).
I concede that she is talented, though. I've read her blog, and her writing style and techniques are just inherently riveting, naturalistic, and overall quite pretty.
We'll see, I guess.
It's beautiful; fall is full swing. The light is orangey and dim and lovely. The trees are exploding into bright colors everywhere. Yesterday, Maddie and I walked down to the river a few blocks away from my house, and found a little path down to its banks. It was so pretty, with all the colors and carpets of yellow leaves. But she dropped her phone into the river, and, like the good person I am, I took my time to laugh for a good two minutes before retrieving it for her (she was wearing heeled boots and would have fallen in). Miraculously, I think it survived.
I miss you
