I ended up talking to Eric for a really long time last night. He needed me to keep him awake because he hadn't slept, so I did, until I finally had to get off because I was too tired and I knew I'd be too tired in the morning. And I did keep falling asleep during my first class, but we didn't do a whole lot in there. And in music he just showed a video. He took us in groups to see the harpsichord and play it to see how it feels different from a piano. It was interesting. More interesting than that video. When I came back in the room I put my head down, it was nice because the lights were out but the video is opera and that's not exactly an easy thing to sleep through. So I ended up watching it somewhat, it was really weird. It was about some weirdo b***h stealing some other girl's man, and in the end he stayed with the b***h instead of his girl. Talk about weird. Study skills was easy today, no work, just this activity that was sort of interesting. We had to pretend we had $10000 and were at an auction, but the kind of stuff that was auctioned was not stuff you could normally buy, or if you could buy, would cost way more than that. Like world peace which can't be bought, or your dream house anywhere in the world, which would be millions of dollars. There were a lot of things I wanted to bid on, things like ending world hunger and stuff, but there was one thing that I knew I really wanted more than anything. I felt a bit greedy since it was something for myself and not for the world, but I knew it was the thing I wanted most on that list. Kind of silly really, but I'm a silly person. It was near the end and I ended up saving all my money for it. A few times I was about to bid on some other things, but people outbid the amount I was going to so I just waited. Anyway, the silly thing I bid on was a happy marriage. I bid $9000 and didn't spend anything on anything else, even though I was going to spend $1000 on something else if I wasn't outbid. But yeah, I won that one. I think someone else wanted it too and was disappointed when I got it. XD But yeah, I didn't want a dream house or three cars or a vacation or to meet a famous person or anything. Just that. There were a lot of things that a lot of people really went for, like the house, and solving world hunger, and some things that no one went for at all, like an unlimited credit card. Although I really wouldn't have minded that dream house. So after class I went and met Rachel like usual, and a little later some guy said hi to me and I didn't know who he was at first and I finally figured out when he asked me if I took prealgebra again that he was the guy from the first prealgebra class I took over a year ago and failed. So I told him I'd taken it back in spring and that I had taken a typing class also since he wanted to know if I was going to do anything with that, since we'd talked about that back when I was in that class with him. I guess he had to go to class because he left but said they were giving out free pizza again so Rachel and I went to get some. Man I wish they did that every week. Rachel asked if I could sit in her art class with her and I could so I went in there instead of waiting for her in the other room, which is boring because Kaz goes to class too not long after that and then I have no one to talk to. So I watched her work on her art and we just talked about stuff, and Andrew from Avalon was there. Rachel had told me he was and pointed him out to me before but I couldn't believe it was really him because he looked so different, but it was him. He only sort of remembered me but I remember him, except how different he looks now, his hair is long now. And he's the one we used to call Chia Pet because of his hair if I remember correctly... The art class is pretty cool, the teacher just walks around while they do whatever they're working on and they have the radio on and can talk and whatever, Rachel had wanted me to take the class but my mom really didn't want me to because I already had so many other classes this time. After that she needed to buy some book so we went to the book store and she got it and we got some candy and were walking to the car. I accidentally dropped a piece and she was like "You're not going to eat it?" And I was like, "No it's on the ground." And she was like, "Did you bite off it?" And I was like, "Yeah." And she kicked it into the grass and I was like, "Oh you'll eat it off the ground but not if I bit off it?" XD Yeah and then she was like, "That guy is following you again?" And I was like, "What?" And I looked and it was Aystyn. XD So I talked to him for a minute but he had to be somewhere so he left and we went to Rachel's car, on the way we passed the parking garage and Rachel was like, "You want to see the cheese over there?" And I was like, "What?" And she said there was cheese all over the sidewalk by the garage and I had seen it and told her that I had parked in the garage last week and walked by that stuff and not know what it was, and had thought it was either poop or barf or someone had eaten poop and then barfed it. But it was cheese sprayed out of a can and it had hardened and was really weird and she kicked some. And it had holes in it now from birds eating it. Very weird. As Rachel said, "Someone must have had a cheese party here." So then we went to my house and she came in for some cookies and the guy was here putting in the new toilet for my parents and we kind of watched him for a minute doing that, and then Jenna called and came over so she could use my computer for a bit and I showed her my squid because she's crazy about squids and I joke about her liking tentacles, and she squees when she sees squids. And Rachel attacked everyone with my stingray Beanie. Rachel went home and I let Jenna use my computer while I just sort of slept on my bed because I was so tired, until she had to leave. And I've managed to stay awake for now and talk to Kaz and usual people.
