Winter Break Chronicles

 


20, December 2002

Recap of the events that happened today: Wake up. Go to the bathroom. Get dressed. Go downstairs to eat breakfast. Get yelled at for something about a pair of pants I left in the basement. Leave for school. Go into 0 period Japanese class and do caligraphy with them. Next, english. We watched Lord of the Flies. The old one that's in black and white. I got really bored so I asked to go to the bathroom and went to visit Little Hippo-san instead. Stayed there for about 10-15 minutes hoping Divelbess wouldn't notice. Apparently she did because she sent Cassie to look for me. Alrighty then...Go back to english which was a very boring half an hour or so. Yay, english is over. Go to band. Not much to say here, band was...band. Lunch. Went outside to juggle with Kev. Near the end of lunch, Little Hippo-san came outside because she was going to leave for MN. Kayley had told her to look for something on the ground. She found it, it was song lyrics written in chalk. We said goodbye and she left and I went to Japanese. Sensei tried to make us do work but we weren't really paying attention because it was the last period before break so she just let us watch this Japanese television program. After school we went to Hazel's house for the gift exchange thing. Gave Katie my present for her which was so expertly wrapped in layers and layers of tape. Got my present from Little Hippo-san which was excellent. Left Hazel's house to go to dinner at It's Casual with Kev, Adrian, and Laura. After dinner, went to watch LOTR. Riley showed up at the movie. I stuck close to Marta and Rachael so I wouldn't have to sit next to him. I didn't. Left the movie and came home. Get in the door and my mom starts yelling at me about 1, as in a singular, math homework assignment which I got a 4 on. I normally get 10s and 9s but apparently that doesn't matter. I am now grounded for the rest of break. Take a shower and go to sleep. End of today.

Song of the moment: Place for my Head, Linkin Park
Mood: blah

Nothing much happened today. Same old same old.

22, December 2002
Woke up today and did some garden work to pay off ski bus. Pretty much a normal morning. Kev called at around 11-ish and wanted to go on a bike ride, so I did. Fun. Except for the part where I was out of shape and couldn't make it up the hills. Yeah. That. But it was fun. We went to Laura's house and stayed there for a while. Played with her dogs and on her swing. Then we left and went into town stopping by Miles' on the way. Went to T&C to get some food. Went to the library so Kevin could return a book. Then we went to Safeway to get more food. Went to Ace so Laura could get a allen wrench to take the kick stand off her bike because it was the evil kick stand of doom then we went back to Miles' to play Super Smash Brothers. Then I came home and here I am now writing this.

Song of the moment: Falling Away From Me, Korn
Mood: Okay I guess.

23, December 2002
Went to Silverdale today. Did the usual stuff, mall, costco. We went to a Mexican restaurant for lunch and bought some extra for my dinner. Came home and did some work. Went to drop Calvin off at Thomas' house. Came back and saw my asshole-ish father eating my dinner. It was even labled "ANGELA'S DINNER" But no. That means absolutely nothing. God I hate my dad. I'm not even kidding. I mean it. He's such an asshole. I'm not exagerating at all. I hate him. I can't stand even being in the same room with him for more than 2 minutes. I'm so pissed right now and it's not even all about this. This just happened to be the thing that pushed it over the edge. Yes. I was mad at the band concert. That was nothing compared to how I'm feeling right now. God...I'm so pissed I can't even write anymore.

Song of the moment: One Step Closer, Linkin Park
Mood: What the hell do you think?

23, December 2002
2nd entry of the day. Calvin got his acceptance letter to the UW sometime last week. My mom has been talking twice as much about me (not) going to college. Tomorrow we get to go on a tour of the UW campus. Wahoo. Every single conversation (which are very one sided being that only my mom talks) my mom and I have now is about how much she wants me to go into nursing or if it's not about that, it's about how much she thinks I won't get into a good college and I'll have to go to a community college and I wont' get a good job and I'll just be a loser for the rest of my life. Great fun. And now I have no one to talk to because you, Little Hippo-san, have signed off...gaaaaahhh....I need a good cry...oh wait, you have signed back on.

24, December 2002
Happy Christmas and a merry new year to you. Nothing to say right now. My day has been pretty good. This is probably due to the fact that I haven't verbaly spoken to anyone today hence no one has a reason to be mad at me...I think.

Song of the moment: Boughs of Holly, Trans Siberian Orchestra
Mood: quite content, actually. Lonely, but content.

25, December 2002
Same as yesterday. Nothing really different. My mom worked today. Nothing special. We were supposed to go to church but since my mom worked, we didn't. Sad.

Song of the moment: Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, traditional
Mood: Okay I guess. I'm sad I didn't get to go to church, though.

26, December 2002
Gah...I think my mom has forgotten about me being grounded. I sure hope so. If I have to spend every day of the break with her and my brother, I will go insane. Not the type of insane I already am, the bad kind. Where I harm people or myself. Bad.

Song of the moment: Night on Bald Mountain, Mussorgsky
Mood: Kind of a mixture of a lot of things. I'm not exactly sure what.

27, December 2002
Maaah. Went shopping with my family today. Bad. Nothing to say.

Song of the moment: 1st movement from Sonata Pathetique, Beethoven
Mood: Maaah

28, December 2002
I hate the weekends. You want to know why? Because I never ever do anything. Well, that's not entirely true. Maybe once every month or so I will go to a movie or something like that, but other than that, nothing! The only reason I have friends is because of school! BAH! I NEED TO DO THINGS! I HAVE NO LIFE!

Song of the moment: 2nd movement from Sonata Pathetique, Beethoven
Mood: Lonely, yes that's a mood.

29, December 2002
Yeah, okay. My entries have been short. That's because I really have nothing much to write about. Maah. I think that I've actually been invited to a New Year's party. I think. I'm not exactly sure if I want to go, though. It's Kevin's party. That's not the reason. He's inviting Bells. Potentially good situation except for not...because...well...nevermind. I'll shut up now.

Song of the moment: My Stupid Mouth, John Mayer
Mood: still lonely.

Just starting the entry for today. I'll write more tomorrow about today because nothing much has happened today.

Song of the moment: PARANOiA, 180
Mood: Anxious (for obvious reasons)

1, January 2003
Ahhh, what a night last night. Quite a bit of fun. The most fun I've had in a while, I must say. SO! Recap of the events that happened last night: After arriving at Kevin's house, I went up into his grage/game room/thing to find him, Adrian, Kevin's sister, and Kevin's sister's friend. We played pool for a while (I had arrived early) until Mackenzie or however you spell it arrived. Then she and Kevin sorta sat off in a corner talking or something like that while Adrian and I played pool. Nick came a little while later and played pool with Adrian and I. Apparently neither of us are very good at it. Around 8:10-ish, Kevin decided to call Laura and ask where she was. He got her sister and she said that Laura was coming. 10 minutes later, Kevin called again because she had not showed up yet and her sister picked up again and said again that she was coming. Finally, Laura and her friend Anna who goes to West Sound Acadamy showed up. We kinda stood around for a while just talking and listening to music until Laura pulled out a deck of cards out of her pocket. Then, of course, we had to play hearts. Laura, Anna, Mackenzie, and I played. Mackenzie did not know how to play hearts. Sad. Kevin turned on Mystery Men but no one was really watching. After we got tired of hearts (about 2 or 3 rounds in) we started watching Mystery Men. Great movie that is. After the movie finished, we had an argument on whether or not to watch Minority Report or not. Personally, I think it's a great movie. One of Spielberg's better movies recently in my opinion. But no, Adrian didn't want to watch it, so we didn't. So then, more pool and fooseball and such until about 11:55 or so at which point we turned the TV back on so we could count down to midnight. Adrian had the remote in his pocket so he kept doing stupid things like turning the TV off at random times or turing the volume down all the way and then back up. When there was a minute left, we all grabbed our poppers and stood by the window (so as Kevin wouldn't have to clean up. That punk). When 42 seconds came around, Adrian and I both yelled out "42!!" because it is indeed a great number. You know, being the answer to the question of life and all. Midnight came, we pulled the poppers. Hurrah. Mackenzie left. Laura and Anna left. Nick left. And Adrian, Kevin, and I were wondering where my parents were seeing as it was somewhere around 1 and I was supposed to go home at 12:30. I called home 3 times until Kevin's dad decided to give me a ride home, but of course Kevin's dad didn't drive, Kevin did. Scary. I know. When we arrived at my house, no one was home! GAH! Turns out my parents went to pick up Calvin at Ryan's house first and they ended up talking with Ryan's parents for an hour and got, *ahem*, side tracked. So that was last night. Apparently Mackenzie doesn't like me and that's okay because Kevin is going to break up with her even though he wasn't really going out with her. Anna likes me, though. And that's cool because she is cool. This is all for now. Goodbye. Happy New Year.

Song of the moment: Here's to the Night, Eve 6
Mood: It's okay, I suppose.

2, January 2003
Hmm...nothing really happened today so I'm not really going to write an entry.

3, January 2003
Stupid power...going out and all. Went out around 11:20 last night and didn't come back on till 8 or so this evening. Couldn't do shit. We got bored and hungry since we couldn't cook anything so we went to Silverdale to my mom's friend's restaurant to get food because she gets discounts there. Good times, good times. I have nothing much else to say for today. I'm going to go now.

Song of the moment: Night Fight, Tan Dun
Mood: Maah.

4, January 2003
Yay. One week till ski bus starts. I'm excited. I don't think that people realize the importance of ski bus to me. This is literally the only time I socialize with people outside of school and band because I am a loser and antisocial therefore I have no life. I can't wait.

Song of the moment: Desire, Ryan Adams
Mood: Anxious

5, January 2003
Mmmm...tomorrow we go back to school. Yay. I am also very excited for this because, as I mentioned, school is one of the only places I see people and talk to them. Yay. Oh yeah, this will be the last entry of the winter chronicles, today being the last day of break and all, so continue going back to my diary.

Song of the moment: The Best Deceptions, Dashboard Confessional
Mood: Still anxious.
