Approaching High School's Defeat
I've been trying to have some good times since, but this is plaguing me almost.
Caleb and I were talking about Jamie one day. I hadn't really noticed the things we discussed until then. We talked about how he does things to people he's close to that make them feel like don't matter or have little importance to him. Like if something bad happens he wants to meet new people, press a restart button, as it is like we're not worth his efforts. I wonder if Jamie realizes that. I don't know. It hurts, though.
My mom got a convertible. She says I can drive it on graduation day. I'm pretty psyched. I also talked about graduation when I went out to eat with my dad and his girlfriend, Cathy, at Terra Nova's (I've been craving some Italian). She is letting me use her neighborhood clubhouse for an after party. We are going to try to get Dave Anderson, the best local musician (and I mean BEST), to play. A woman who is Cathy's friend and should be on Ace of Cakes is making me a cake. I'm even more psyched.
Prom is next week. I'm going with Brett as friends, and he's been cool about that regardless of his feelings for me. I feel bad for him having to pick me up, though. I live a ways away from him. The day after that I have my Jobs for America's graduates (JAG) competition. I'm in JAG Bowl, that is, we have a series of career related questions that we buzz into to answer and each team consist of four people. We are taking a charter bus to Montgomery, and Mrs. Hall (JAG instructor) is going to take us around down town. My upcoming life seems so eventful.
I wonder how I'll feel when I graduate. There are all those people who say they miss high school. Good Charlotte didn't miss high school, they hated it with a burning passion. I think I'll just miss the people and a select good teachers.
Last night Angela and I got drunk and watched Beavis and Butthead. Well, I didn't get drunk, I just couldn't do it. I couldn't drink. I chewed a lot of gum and laughed just a little less than her.
I'm trying to be happy.
