missed the 6:37 bus and that pissed me off because the driver should have seen me wave down the fucking bus
I texted Lisa and Ben telling them I'll meet them a bit later. (to lisa I said I would meet her at 8 instead of 7:45) and I told ben to meet at 7:15ish and that was not a problem.
Ay 75th/South Boulder, Lisi and Jin-Woo got on the bus. Lisi didn't have 1st off, but hey we have 5th off.
ben texted me as the bus headed closer and closer to table mesa/broadway
the text read
i've got a table, poke the bus driver to drive faster
I showed this to lisi and she started to laugh.
- got off bus
- walked with lisi/jin woo towards the bus stop when a SKIP drives right past us. none of us decide to break into speed and catch the bus.
lisi "it better wait up"
me: there's another one after this no worries., hey like you said you have 20 minutes till class.
i took off and headed into the table mesa shopping center singing seasons of love while sprinting towards the stairs to get to the walnut cafe, where i found ben sitting in a corner. He looked dashing...just stood out with his blue/white stripped collared neck polo and green cargo pants. okay so maybe I like ben...but no i can never fall in love with him. I just can't.
-went to breakfeast with ben around 7:20 at the walnut cafe cuz ben asked if i wanted to have breakfeast on the first day
enjoyed hot chocolate with Ben
hot chocolate fills the hole in your heart better than a relationship, friends..etc. It fills the hole that was caused by that girl who broke your heart, ...there's always a place in your heart for hot chocolate..it's better than coffee.
toasted with water at 7:30 to commerate senior year because my hot cocoa just arrived and it was scalding
ate banana chocolate chip waffles
ben ate breafkeast burrito
we talked about Jackie...he tricked her by telling her via text messages that he was gay with Keller. Apparently his NYLC is having a renunion party in Boston, and I mentioned "hey be careful there"
"don't worry there are things involving rubber that i can use"
me: ....um....oh...OH...AHHH Ben..that's not what i meant!
-payed the bill with cash
- as we headed out the door into the parking lot, i exclaimed "SENIORS WHOO!!"
drove to school with " What is love " playing (it was my mix that I burned!)
was so accustomed to the fact that we (friends) parked in the back..that I almost told ben to head towards the direction of the back lot of FHS
then I realised that we are seniors and we have...the SENIOR PARKING LOT
the idea just dawned on me.
We fulfilled the moment of heading into the lot by slowing driving in.
Ben parked a car away from Thomas.
as we got out...I saw Marya, and Brianna..and god someone else.
marya and I hugged one another and exclaimed our status as seniors.
and then Ben and I headed into the building
i breathed in the air as we headed to the senior locker area/senior balcony.
we saw Andrej with his ghetto blaster III on the balcony...he was enjoying the time of his off period.
EVERYONE ...practically everyone has 1st period or 5th period off. It's such a party.
at breakfeast, ben and I thought about the reason the administration decided to give us those periods off, and it's because they are trying to avoid any hazing rituals that seniors perform on the freshmen. THen again when you think about it. Having the first period off will buy us more time to get prepared, buy supplies at king soopers and when second period rolls in: BAM!!!
we looked over on the balcony, ben took a photo using his samsung mobile and then we migrated towards his locker where he realised that he did not the combination and only thomas did. I told him to get it from the office. I was by my locker wheN i saw Evan Krugeal and he saw me and motioned for a high five, but I asked "could I get a hug?" and so I got one teehee.
i saw justin dodds and freaked out. I haven't seen him in two years.
I then saw lisa with Elisaa and then we hugged one another and started decorating our locker with photos of bands (rammstein, zeromancer, trvium, johnny depp) using tape and my bag of magnets.
While we were doing that ben was talking to becca i think and after five minutes he turned to us and realised that we were having a conversation about decorating our locker. lisa "yes!! cuz were losers!"
becca; oh this one more day
peter wouldn't stop ranting about the trivium photo, then Melanie came along ..and Katy.
I pointed out to becca where our locker was and she loves the location of our locker. Ben kept saying "isn't it great? were gonna have to abuse this territory..i mean we can just taunt freshmen from here (cuz it's right next to the ledge of the balcony that has clear view of the ramp that heads towards the odd numbered hallway.
Becca then mentioned that someone should bring couches to the balcony and she mentioned that she had a futon at her house.
Lisa: we should just put the futon like there (pointing towards the area from the right of our locker)
(we agreeded)
and then she wanted to look at my schdule of awesomeoness so I handed her the folded paper while she compared schedules.
Peri then showed up and was standing on the ramp so we hugged her with the balcony ledge between us.
the bell rang.
2nd period began
Peri and I headed to physics while Lisa headed to adaptive p.e.
2nd period= physics. We have passarelli
she gave us a farewell speech because she said that it was too emotional to tell everyone when May hits and also it's becuase that everyone is actually paying attention. I have both Hight's in my class. Talia is in my class for once! After middle school I had no classes with her.
I have science with peri again and that makes me happy
Passarelli passed out used index cards that the chemistry classes used. on the blank side it read either "kr-94" (which was my card) or "energy" on Peri's index card.
On the lined side of the index card we were told to write our name on the top and on the right side we wrote down "#2" indicating it was her period 2 physics class.
On the left side we wrote down the numbers 1-6
one of the questions was "describe your best friend using one word" While I was trying to think of something to describe Peri, passarelli blurted out in response to someone "No NOT SATAN!!" ...*class eruppted into laughter.
and then for the rest of the period everyone got to share their name (first and last) and soemthing that they wrote on the paper.
3rd period:= IB FRENCH 4
there was traffic as I headed into the 600 hallway via the starcase that enters into the foriegn language area.
I started yelling, and Alysaa just looked at me funny.
then I bumped into Jirui when I was trying to get out of the 600 hallway by getting out of the traffic area (foriegn language) and gave her a little push on her shoulder...adn then warned her about traffic in the hallway.
i decdied to head back into traffic beacuse my class was about to start
I thought I had class in the latin room because Madam Joslyn's sign was there, but I was wrong cuz it was IB FRENCH 5 ..and Ted was in there and he exclaimed "ahh i'm not supposed to be here"
me: ahhh I'm in the wrong place!
I got out and found the french room....the same room that I've had French for the past three years.
I was so happy to find out that I had Alexis in it (found out on Freshmen day when I asked her as she was sitting down on the ramp)
and to find out Claire was in it this morning.
and I am grateful that I switched out of 7th period because to my obersvations....NANXI IS NOT IN MY FRENCH CLASS FOR ONCE!!!
YESS SWEET VICTORY
and the nice thing is: MAx is in it, Lameese as well, but then we have the old gang of "indie-emo" girls who speak horrendous french. i think i'm gonna die.
FOrtuantly YOSHI is not my class either.
I am sad to know that Walker (david walker) is not in my class. darn it.
We played a game of "getting to know everyone en Francais" and then had to present information about our partner.
I told everyone i fell off my bike and chipped my teeth....it sucks cuz i can't drink cold water because it gets painful.
4th period: PUBLIC SPEAKING
alyssa spotted me and waved me down and told me to sit next to her. I chucked my green bag onto the desk and heard something hit the desk hard. (later during lunch i realised it was my wallet and yogurt that made the noise)
It took me 5 minutes to realise that angie was in my class...and the reason it took five mintues was because Bond-simmons did roll call and when she mentioned Angie's name..it was then i realised she was in my class.
and to my utter dismay: chris wahl is in my class. guess what he did this summer: Vienna> fuck him.
Bond simmons rotated two questions "what bad happened this summer?" and "what was something great that happened this summer?"
when she came to me: she said, "Susan I know you did something great this summer you went to yearbook camp"
me: ...HEY what happens @ yearbook stays @ yearbook camp.
Rachel laughed. oh yes Rachel Erdman is my class too.
i was gonna comment on the bad summer due to having my heart being trampled on and the fact that I flew off my bike.
then i got my first english assignment
a speech about your partner
thank god i was assigned to Adam Gibert!!>
I didn't have a partner so I raised my hand with the statement of "i don't have a partner"
so she guided me to Madison Voshell, but the rule was that you have to interview someone that you don't know
me: i already know Madison from class
bond simmons: okay...how about merilee
me: um ...i went to europe with..
merilee: yeah we went to Europe together
bond-simmons: *laughs okay how I pair you up with adam
me: alright osunds good.
I already knew Adam, because before Monty Python at the outdoor theatre he drove up in car (with his friends) and in his hand was a camcorder and asked " IF YOU CAN ANSWER THREE QUESTIONS YOU GET TO MAKE OUT WITH THIS GUY IN THE BACK!!"
....I think i've been having some form of a crush on this guy...even though he is a junior. He's intelligent, tall, and he just appeals to my senses.
So we talked and interviewed one another, he asked me waht kinda of music I like and I had to mention metal and "that crazy arabian techno music"
then because of that he managed to relate.
adam: I love ARABIAN TECHNO! it's so TRIPPY!!
me: I KNOW I LOVE THAT!!
and basically we had an awesome conversation and simply laughed a lot. I never had a good honest laugh with someone I barely know in a while.
5th: OFF PERIOD
LUNCH OUTSIDE with Lisi, Thomas, Kara, Becca, Ben, Angie, Shuana, and Liz on one red square table.
we wanted school to end right then.
liz chucked a hard boiled egg at thomas, which prompted him to pull out his ninja star.
we headed back in for some "senior balcony time" and thought about ideas for pranks, and freshmen friday.
monkey bars on the ceiling, getting all the mats from the mat room and trying to slide down from the balcony to the student center
kara "i'd rather get ringwrom than have my leg amputated"
6tth period : YEARBOOK
- stott wrote a diagram of who's who on yearbook. Ben said that he should write "Stott" on the top of the diagram symbolizing that he is GOD.
while introducing one another stott asked everyone "why are you on yearbook" and for returning staff/editors he asked "what part of yearbook do you enjoy? " my answer: THE POWER TRIP.
ben: well susan bribed me and threatened to kill me JUST KIDDING SUSAN
me: DID NOT!!
two senior guys on yearbook...
7th period: FASHION PRODUCTION
that was BORING
at least i'm with anna ma
said bye to lisa cuz she had 8th off.
8th period: PRECALCULUS
it is basically a combination of my algebra I class from freshmen year, algebra II from junior year and a few splats of people from sophomore year
Marya and Liz are in my class...adn guess who we have as well: Hannah and Reed. Oh fuck.
Soderulnd gave us a quiz no no a "diagnostic quiz"
i knew half of the stuff. I turned it in.
After school: Liz and I headed up to the senior area where we met up with everyone else. I headed towards Keith with my folder and was about to smack him when he blocked the blow with his left arm.
keith: McCleary asked "hey do you want to do the first 4 chapter of the homework?"
me: well keith your really smart
keith: yeah yeah ...mmm i have soccer practice now
me: you do that, i'll be down there sometime
keith :okay see ya
i then headed towards Joon and said hi to him when I discovered that steve was standing right by him. I shrieked and gave the emo steve a hug.
afterwards I headed over towards BEn and the rest of the gang (angie, liz, shuana, becca)
liz and becca were heading home
ben then said, 'i'm hungry.."
and I thought I was wierd because coincidentally I was really hungry during 8th period. and I thought that no one is going to be hungry except me.
Ben: I'm hungry
me: wow! Me too!
ben: let's go get something
(thinking: another food date? we had breakfeast together...okay 
)
me: sounds good..um let me go grab my stuff.
as we were heading out, Blake jumped in between us and decided to walk with us. He then asked Ben if he wanted to go hang out ...something of that matter and Ben mentioned, "well we were kinda gonna get some food"
blake: Okay i'll head with you guys
WHAT THE FUCK YOU JUST INVITE YOURSELF??!! grrr but i'm okay with it.
while we got in the car and drove down greenbriar, we were discussing on what to eat. Blake wanted Qdoba and Ben was hesistant
ben: what should what we eat?
blake: hmmm
me: blake...what are you craving?
blake: how about burritos
ben: big city?
blake: ...maybe Qdoba
beN; ehhh I'm not a huge fan
me: it's okay (qdoba) ..but yeah
blake: but Qdoba is awesome
beN: i know, but i'm not really a huge fan of their food
So we decided on big citty burritoes, while we were driving there we were still listening to the mix in the morning and the next song that came up as we headed onto Broadway/south boulder was "Bittersweet symphony" then I realised that this was the mix that I burned for Ben a while back. Ben mentioned that it was the memorial cd for his stolen car stereo. We all sang a few verses and then stopped. Blake mentioned that this song is good...which prompted me to ask about who burned the cd.
THen blake flipped through Ben's cd case and wanted Ben to play something else...say his music.
Though Ben casually said that the current cd was just fine
"not to be biased or anything to Susan"
me: no i'm alright *smiles
blake: okay...fine
on the way to big city burritos we took 28th street and on the way there we had the 'fuck you" dane cook monologue again. Ben told us to chill out. Then he said "i don't want to know what you guys are doing, but yeah.." m
me: ....OHH BEN!! AHHHH AHHH I shudder at the thought!!!!!!
as we pulled into the parking lot, Planned parenthood was next door so I just stated, 'oh i got to swing by planned parenthood for just a second-okay kidding kidding"
then blake said "i got to head over there"
"I TOLD YOU TO USE PROTECTION YOU FREAK!"
- ate burrito of fillinigness
- Blake invited Ben over to his house so he can teach him guitar (on the ride to burrito city ben reminded me to bring the mandarin book so that he learn adn blake said that he has to teach ben guitar.
- I thought that Ben was going to go so i was about to take the bus. As we headed out to the car he mentioned that he should head home
Blake called shot gun, i called out rebound, but blake is not aware of the rebound rule. "person sitting in back can sit in shotgun and person in shot gun sits in the bacK" Then i realised my books are in the back so i decided to sit in the back again.
blake" okay well ben can drop you off at a bus stop and he'll come over to my place"
me: um alright
beN: blake...i should head home
blake: what?? why can't you hang out?
ben: i've got stuff to finish and I shoudl jsut head back.
blake: alright ...well I wish you could have come over so i could teach you guitar
beN; yeah I know
i thought ben was droping me off first, but then I realised that he went into blake's neighborhood and dropped hiim off at his house. I had to hand blake his swim shorts...and i did that with disgust. at least it was wrapped in a towel
me: ughh blake's swim shorts...sick
blake: oh come on
me: *sarcastically: here you go blake, oh GOD I love SWIMMING SHORTS YES!! YESS YESS!! (orgasm tone) OH GOD (while heading into shotgun
ben: susan...calm down *laughs
me: oh i'm okay
ben: since i'm going home..i'm gonna drop you off
me: what? i could t...take the bus
beN; no it's fine..i'll driv eyou home
me: thanks ben, i..i'll pay more gas
blake: with his mileage?
ben: it would only be a few pennies.
When Ben started to head out Blake's neighborhood we just unloaded our thoughts. First it was about Blake and how he acting so abrasive.
topics that we discussed
-mandy
- blake/marian
- how we are frustrated with everyone
- the drama involving mandy and her mom
- Chad
- Angie
- how much people are being stupid
- how much marian is being a ho with blake
- mandy/ben's relationship
then when ben got to my house..I didn't get out.
beN: get out when you need to
I almost broke down, but resorted to laughter and repeated teh phrase "what was I thinking??!" (with Chad)
and then I had a 2 hours conversation with Ben about everything. We were bonding.
we shifted positions in our chairs, moving seatbelts, unfastening seatbelts, putting the charis all the back and then...
then he sat on his car door and had his head on the roof of his car
it started to rain, and i mentioned how much symbolism there was at the moment.
after two phone calls from his mom, and maxx and lying down on the seats...just talking how fucked up our lives were
i chekced my phone and noticed 4 missed calls were from my house...and i was 2 ft away from the driveway...funny stuff.
so i got out and walked towards my house. I have to tell you, with any guy that I am remotely fond of, I always turn around when I'm walking and look back at them and I did that, and then ben honked his horn, i turn back and he started flashing his lights at me.
the end of an incredible day
the first day of my SENIOR YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL
at home
around 6 ish
my aunt in boston called
then it started to rain
thirty minutes later or so the rain started to get heavier
my dad exclaimed at the site of the weather
and then I felt the need to go outiside and soak myself in the glory of this magnificent rain.
my mom yelled at me and telling me that i was going insane.
she is having the worst emotional tornado that I have ever seen.
