I am so behiiiiind. soon I will add:

lord of the flies
some other books I'm sure maybe the other potters idk

a false image. and some books.

I'd just like to clarify something, for posterity's sake.

I've only been to ONE party. Not several parties. Turns out, the reason I never went to one before wasn't for lack of desire, but for lack of invitation. I thought it was a combination, or that people didn't invite me because they figured I wouldn't be interested. As it happens, such is not the case. And that's fine. So don't go thinking my life is all different or whatever. It's not.

By the way, booklist. It's been a while.

NO REGRETS

to all the kids who have school in june:
hahaha suck my dick.

there are butterflies in my stomach every time my phone lights up.

I feel way more comfortable posting the intimacies of my life on my blog. No one reads it, and if they do, well, I have nothing to be afraid of.

And, I mean, for the really personal things, I have my angst tumblr. ;)

idk. Boys are dumb. I wouldn't even care about him a little bit if HE hadn't approached ME first. So I feel less pathetic thinking about it that way.

In other news.

As is probably common knowledge, I went to a party and got my drank on last... Friday, was it? No matter. The interesting part was I called my parents beforehand, just to say that I would not be coming home. The conversation went as follows:

"So what are you guys doing tonight?"
"Oh, um, I don--"
"Your mom thinks you're going to a party."
"Um, I, uh..."
"Be safe."

WHY DO MY PARENTS WANT ME TO PARTY. They want me to wear "normal" clothes and all this crap. I don't get it. I think they just want me to fit in. Apparently in the class sociology, parents have a need for their kids to have that "insider" status. And I completely get that. That idea of intimacy with peers, of being "in," not alone, all that. That's why inside jokes are so important, why humor connects people the way it does.

I mean, it's not like my parents are forcing me out to parties, but I can tell they've always been sort of worried about me. I'm weird and have odd habits and have had a nonexistent social life, until recently. And they're just encouraging this new "path" or whatever you want to call it.

Whatever I'm tired just some musings before I go to sleep.

QT dranks: 8
jamming to: jay-z and taylor swift

excuses? nah.

So. I'm surprised I haven't gotten some backlash yet.

I'm a different person than I was this time last year. I have friends. I'm going to parties -- with alcohol and weed and crazy antics. I'm not on skype ever. I've been out of my house every night this summer. I'm happy, I'm a teenager, I'm living life. I'm fawning over a boy notorious for being a ladies' man. I listen to Ke$ha, Jay-Z, Asher Roth.

That doesn't change the fact that I'm still a nerd, though. I was up at 6AM the other morning talking about the show Recess. I make references to Friends. I still listen to my DFTBA Records artists. I hung out with Darci and completely dorked out over this really AWESOME stuff.

And look! Of all things, I'm BLOGGING.

I'm doing stuff I've never done before. But I'm still, at heart, the same. I'm a dork, I'm weird, I'm a nerd. The biggest thing I'm excited for is the fact that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out on my birthday. My 18th birthday!! And there are 409 days until LeakyCon 2011.

I'm done worrying about school, newspaper, the FreeLancer, student council, AP tests... it's over. I can swim. I can tan. I can, after a year of hard work, finally relax.

Bought: 11

he's lost his will to think, to care
the world is fine from his "down there"
and Hell already is frozen, see?
what good does it do to rise?

he's lost his will to live, to be
the world is fine from his canopy
he's already paid for heaven's share
what good does it do to prolong demise?

the two, they meet in purgatory
without a way to tell his story
one goes up, the other down
they obey without a single sound

repent, repent, oh God forgive he
he loves his mom, oh God, he's sorry
he works and works: repent, repent
and soon he shall be Heaven sent
