Complications

No lyrics for today, "Complications" is a Deadmau5 song.
Astronomically good, but not lyrical.

So instead, I've got to talk my way out of this rut instead of letting music be my facade.

The good news:
no more community service
one of my former enemies is becoming my friend (I think)
and the other got what she deserved, and I'm going to point and laugh.
I'm graduating soon, and I'll be eighteen sooner
My life is not so hellish anymore
AND I got accepted to Linfield.

The bad news:
well, I don't want to actually think about the bad news as "bad" news, it's just temporary shit that's making me suffer for the moment.

This too, shall pass.

Besides, I don't have the time to dwell on minor little setbacks.
Because if I do, I won't have time for life.

Whew. Now that that's over and done with for now...

It's spring break, and the most I've done is community service. Which is all right, I suppose, the weather wasn't horrendous.

But I need to get out of here and do something.
Not sure what yet.

Closer to the Sun

"All I really needed was a friend like you
Help me through and together we can change, but
If I was to stay it wasn't for too long
People sing the same song everywhere I'm going
Closer to the sun and far from the moon
People screaming out they gonna see me real soon, they say ooh, ooh."
-"Closer to the Sun" - Slightly Stoopid

Community service yesterday.
Stacking wood.

Sucked, but it beats raking leaves.
Halfway done with it anyhow.

So I seem to have found myself in a predicament...
I loaned my iPod to a friend, but I don't know if I'm going to get it back in working condition, or even if I'm going to get it back at all.
But it's cool, because if anything happens to it, I'll demand to be paid back.
I could use $250 dollars.
Haha.

Instead of listening to my iPod this weekend, I've rediscovered radio, CDs, and LPs.
But not cassette tapes.
They're notoriously unreliable...
and I don't own any.

I'm also (supposedly!) getting a cat today, as a gift from my sister.
As a gift from her friend.
Having never had a legit pet of my own, I'm rather excited.
She needs a new name though, because our cat's name is Mamma, and the new cat's name is Momma.
I forsee problems with this situation.

So, name ideas please?
All I know about her is that she's grey and fluffy.
^_^

I need to earn ten bucks in the next few days...

But I'm so excited... It's nearly spring, and therefore summer is just around the corner!
So is graduation!
So is the OCF!
So is my birthday!

So many reasons to be in a stellar mood today.

Don't Cry Out

"Ten, nine, eight, and I'm breaking away
I'm all dressed up and I'm ready to play
Seven, six, five, four, and I'm over you
Counting three, two, one, and I'm having fun."
"Don't Cry Out" - Shiny Toy Guns

So I do believe this has become my situationally correct song.

Thanks to Jessica for recommending it!

Band festival today.
We did fairly well.
A lot better than last week.

Making reparations, making changes, making plans, and looking towards the future.
There's the majority of my day.

A day tomorrow, super easy.

I love my life.

Fold Your Hands, Child

Ocean Bowl?
Yes.

9th out of 20?
Mmhmm.

Otherwise uneventful weekend?
You know it.

Once again, jumping into a random blog post with no real ideas.
Thankfullly there's not much to say.
No big flareups. No big amazing moments. No epiphanies.

I kind of like it this way for now, it's a nice break from the total chaos of the last month.

Side note, Mrs. Kramer has piqued my interest in the OCF.
Guess I've got to plan some costumes!
