O.o

Well this week hasn't exactly been the best week and it's not even Friday yet. Oh well it could be worse. I was just watching a video on youtube that changed my view on a lot of things. I don't really have enough time to type a lot right now but everybody reading this should watch the video. It is about half an hour long and it probably isn't the best idea to watch it while trying to do homework (as I did). But it is definitely worth watching.

Here is the video:

and all that jazz

Okay so my school is hosting a jazz fest tonight and I'm in it. It's going to be sooo much fun I'm like so excited!!!!! We get to wear hats from all around the world because the theme is jazz around the world and I get to wear a huge bearskin hat (fake bearskin of course!) like the people in the coldstream guard! And one of my best friends is doing the spotlight so we are going to hang out up there all night(: Two of my friends and I were dancing around on the stage after school and singing in the mics and it was sooo funny! I got a bunch of videos and in the one video I got Justin (he's this college kid who used to go to my middle school and he comes back to help with the tech stuff and lighting and everything) trying to show my friend how to sing the star spangled banner, then he realized that I was recording it and he was like "that video will be shown to no one" it was really funny! I have to get ready now but I shall let you guys know how it goes XD

honors application

I just finished doing my honors application for high school! I'm sort of nervous that I wont make it. Every single year I have been a straight A student and I have gotten honor roll for all the quarters in middle school since sixth grade. Now my grades are slipping a bit and I don't think that my teachers will recommend me. Maybe I'm just being to hard on myself. And anyway my parents can always call the school and request for me to be in honors. But it would be nice to know that I did it myself. Now I'm thinking about how I'm all excited for high school and everything. Thank god tomorrow is Friday!!!!!!! Anyway we had to submit a writing sample along with our application and I submitted one of the songs that I wrote:

You obviously don’t know
the way she looks at you
like the time when the grass is wet with morning dew
the way she has your back
when your girlfriend attacks

The way she sighs
just open up your eyes
but you are

(Chorus)
Completely absolutely totally oblivious
unintentionally blind
you stare right through her like a ghost
I guess I’m just wasting my time
but I can’t help feeling this way

You obviously don’t realize
the way she looks into your eyes
like a magical creature under distant skies
the way she laughs
even if your jokes aren’t funny

You obviously cant see
the way you make me dizzy
every time you brush my side
I just need you
to look into my eyes
but you are

(Chorus)
Completely absolutely totally oblivious
unintentionally blind
you stare right through her like a ghost
I guess I’m just wasting my time
but I can’t help feeling this way

But then you turn away from me
and walk in to her arms
the way she fakes a smile at you
though I know she doesn’t love you
not like I do

I know she’ll break your heart
the moment she can run into his arms
she’ll leave you
without a backward glance

If you just look
over your shoulder
I’m standing here
if you could just see
how much I love you
but you are

(Chorus)
Completely absolutely totally oblivious
unintentionally blind
you stare right through me like I’m a ghost
I guess I’m just wasting my time
but I can’t help feeling that you are
completely absolutely totally oblivious
unintentionally blind
you stare right through me like I’m a ghost
I guess I’m just wasting my time
I guess I’m just wasting my time

(fades out)
why do I have to waste my time?
my heart wont listen to me
I’m fallin’ for a blind guy
