Current mood: shpunky!
Music: The Final - Dir en Grey (get it? Finals are over... the "Final". Woah!)
Subject: IT'S FINALLY OVER!
That's right, the day has come. It's all over. No more classes, no more tests, no more schoolwork, period. Oh happy day! Rejoice rejoice I tell you! The rest that is left is partay-ing down foolio and graduation practices of course. We graduate the day the third Harry Potter comes out. I wonder if they'll have Peeves the Poltergeist in this one. They need Peeves!

Anyway, to celebrate the end of school work for me at least (I feel bad for my sister) we are having a big fat ol' dinner. Yush! Ribs I say! And caesar salad! And afterward we are having this lemon tart stuff and - this is a shpecial part - Mom got some Nutella. For those of you who don't know what Nutella is, it's this chocolate hazelnut German spread thing. My friend Ashleigh always gets it from Germany and we always have a spoonful to eat when we go over to her house. It has a lot of sugar in so it helps keep us up. In fact, her parents are over in Europe right now (her dad has to work there a lot apparently) and they're sure to bring back a crapload. SPEAKING OF NICE GERMAN THINGS, I WANT A BED DECCA! It's a comforter, but it's the best comforter in the world! It is so comfortable! Anyway, speaking of Ashleigh, tomorrow (little does she know) we are going to set her up with a friend, Chris. They go to school together and he really likes her and it's so cute!

I know that a lot of my friends at SFC haven't heard me sing, really, because I get shy every once in a while when it comes to that. It's weird because I'll get up in front of people and have no problem reading stuff or saying something in front of them, but when it comes to singing , I get nervous. And in my grade, Jessie Salazar is consider the almighty best singer. She's really nice and usually acknowledges me as a good singer too (for example when Mrs. Borges, my drama teacher will ask for someone to sing she will go to Jessie, but Jessie will always point to me and suggest me as well. ^_^) but sometimes I feel like she gets all the recognition (which isn't surprising, being that she's popular and people have heard her sing more). What my point is, graduation is coming up, and I kind of want to song for it. In sixth grade I sang in front of the whole school and it went pretty well, not to mention it was fun. Of course, I know Jessie will get a song, which doesn't bother me in the least. What bothers me is that I want to ask her if I can sing with her, and I'm afraid I'll be ruining her fun. Another problem is that Rose and Erin Young also want to sing. Of course we can't raid on her one song, so if we all want to sing certain parts of a song we're going to have to ask for more that one, and those songs we will have to pick. The thing is I'm not sure what songs to pick. Believe it or not (marilyn) I'm thinking I can ask for There You'll Be, but I understand if you don't want to do that for fear of ruining it. If someone sang one of my favorite songs badly I'd be annoyed too. But if you let me ask for it I will try to sing it as well as I can. And before I suggest it I will make sure I can sing it well before even asking to sing it. If I can't sing it well compared to other songs I won't even suggest it at all.

There is this guy that goes to church at our school every single day . He's bald and wears the same suit every time, and every time we see him there (we are forced to go to morning mass once a week) he always says in a lazy drawl "For an increase in Mass attendance..." blah blah blah for an intention. Little does he realize that the reason there aren't many people at morning masses every day is because a lot of people DON'T GO TO MASS EVERY SINGLE DAY LIKE HE DOES! He seems like a terribly boring person.
Well I saw him in his car this morning, head glistening so brightly you would probably be blinded by it if you stared too long - sonmething similar to the sun - and on the back of his holy car was a holy bumper sticker that said "GOD will bless America one America returns to GOD."
To say the least this pissed me off. It was an incredibly liberal statement. It may have had other meanings, but I was thinking it had something to do with the war. So, what? Because we're defending innocent Iraqi people and destroying the heartless murderers we will not be blessed by God? Does God hate us because we are in war? Gee golly I wonder what God thought of the Crusaders who went to take hold of the Holy Land.
And if it is simply about people not being holy enough, face it, things aren't like the old days. This is America, Bud, not everyone is going to be Catholic or as holy as you are. There are people out in this country who are Buddhist and Muslim and Wiccan and have different beliefs than you do.
Frankly if his bumper sticker is trying to make people think and say "Gee golly Gosh I should go to church more often so God will bless the country that I love and we will not all die a terrible horrible death" I don't think it is. I think it is just getting people, like me, pissed off.
I complained about it to my mom and she said "He's a religious fanatic and he's crazy. Religious fanatics are also those Muslims that think Ala wants them to chop people's heads off." It was funny. I suppose this goes with another entry I made a long time ago about religious zealots. Yush, religious zealots bug me indeed.

After finals today it was really fun. Everyone was happy and relieved that they were all over with. We were walking around the classroom and people were writing on the backs of other people's polo shirts. At the end of the year I usually take Mr. Pencilcase (my pencil case) and wrap him in all the cloth bookcovers I can get. This time I had thirteen. That's a lot. And the best part was, when I was taking my Literature final, my pen ran out of ink! -_- So I took all 13 bookcovers off of Mr. Pencilcase and got my pen out. I had them in a pile at the bottom of my desk and after we were done with all the tests Erin and Lucas came over and started putting all of them on my head. I was dubbed the "Du rag queen". Yush indeed. Of course it gave me a really bad headache so I had to take them off.

Yush. I am happy we are done with. Tomorrow we get our graduation gowns and our yearbooks.

I'm listening to There You'll Be at the moment and it's making me sad because it's almost over. I WAS HAPPY! STOP IT!

Fin!

Honestly, I wouldn't mind that much if you sang that because it really is a good song. The thing is the lyrics are like a love story and for a pilot. Well its up to you.
STUPID BALD BITCHY ASS LIBERAL! I think we should sneak into his house while he is sleeping and put pictures of all the good things Americans are doing for Iraq. Like the ones when soldiers are playing with the children in the streets and not one of them is sad or upset.
Good entry. I liked it. bye
