I got my ears pierced. (pain: minimal.) I really want to wear big, silver hoop earrings but apparently I have to keep this in for six weeks. This will not arrive in time for school. School has not sent me a list of supplies. Creative Writing wasn't scheduled in place of lunch. Damn incompetent school counselors ( Read more... )

Gosh I hate picking partners when I don't know anyone else in the class. and everyone else is already paired off...

You know, if you want to be 'known' you should just run to school wearing an elephant mask. Or a cow mask. I could lend you mine if you want. It would get you noticed. Although you'd have to be pleasent enough so people actually come up to you to ask about it and not just ask everyone else.

Hmm. It would work, yes, but not quite in the way I usually envision it. My friend told me about getting fake liprings to wear to orientation and her great and t00by plan to start dancing during lunch period after watching Save the Last Dance, but yeah... I do not have the guts.

Picking partners does suck. I've perfected the art of waiting until they're ineveitably paired off and waiting near the gym teacher so I can say, "Hey, I dun got no pardner, yo."

Is it a pink elephant or a gray elephant?

Its a cow mask. I wore it for a Father Daughter Dance I helped be in charge of that was western. It was held at my school. And people were still milling around while we were setting up.

.... and yeah. Still no name for me.

You know. I'd probably be a lot more of a bitch to people at the school if I didn't care about being tarred and feathered. But since I don't want to waste my school year hiding in the girl's bathroom I just stay quiet and use my witty things I think of in stories. Plus it's more fun when someone gets mad at you and you give them no reason for it that anyone can see. So they end up looking the loser ^_^ heheh....

But that's all besides the point. 0=)

I'm decidedly cooler and more perverted than they think I am.

That's the spirit!

Though... really, I can't think of any girls who truly never cared about being popular. Most of us do seem to find ways to hide it.

A lot of people claim not to care about being popular. I tend not to trust/respect either side. It's like the fanon. No matter what your views on the "classics" are, I'm likely to view you as a snob. ;) (gah. I think I'm giving up on FAP.)

*was one of those*

Even now I envy the popular girls, though I am quite happy to say that I have already written popularity off as an unfeasible and not necessarily satisfying goal.

No matter what your views on the "classics" are, I'm likely to view you as a snob.

What if I'm apathetic? What if I say that I liked some but didn't really enjoy others?

And, pray, what are your views on the classics?

That's still snobbery by trying to show your lack of snobbery. ;)

And my views on the classics, well, I don't really read any fanfiction anymore so most of them I haven't even read or only skimmed a chapter or two. (with the exception of the DT, which I followed about two years ago)

I want pierced ears for the soul reason of wearing hoops. Maybe when I'm older & hopefully less lazy.

I got them done at Claire's, aka the cheapfest of tacky feather boas and glittery headbands. If you have them in Canada, just point to the "free earring piercing" sign and force your parents to let you. :D

Sadly, I have to keep these studs in for six weeks... wibble.

Easy. Just make sure that they are aware of how perverted you are. Instant notoriety.

...In all seriousness, high school can bring on changes. In my first year of high school, a girl I had walked home with every day for six years and I stopped talking. We haven't spoken since. With that said, I also met some of my most interesting friends in grade nine, many of which were people I had thought I had "known". Don't write all of them off as Abercrombie & Fitch-wearing morons. There may be a closet H/D shipper in there somewhere.

Also: I dropped Gym at first opportunity, which happened to be Grade Ten. See if you can do the same.

I also got your letter today. :D Though I was very frightened as my parents inquired who it was from... and they think everyone online is out to rape me. So. You know.

I wish I could meet a copy of you in school. *grin*

Tell them it is from someone from your camp! Oh yes. I blame everything from online people as coming from my best friend who lives in California. :D :D :D But hey, I know. My parents (actually, my dad doesn't care, but my mom is SO paranoid) freak out over the mere possibility of me talking to strangers on the internet. 'Cause, you know, they're all 35 year old child rapists. *g*

Those groups always scared me.

"I'm decidedly cooler and more perverted than they think I am." Hahaha! Oh man. If only *everyone* took the time to figure that out. If only we could all be who we are at CTY and be surrounded by people like CTYers.

End what could have turned into full-out angsty rant.

I shouldn't really complain, since I'm out of high school. But a fresh start is always helpful. Good luck this fall! :)

Out of high school? College? w00t. :D

End what could have turned into full-out angsty rant.

*hugs* But CTY wouldn't be so cool if school didn't suck so much! It's like in Utopias, they always need somebody to suffer to make it perfect...

Good point.

Which is why we should create a CTY boarding school and life would be woooooooonderful all year long! ;)

(Kidding -- I know that would present its own problems and probably detract from the wonder of CTY. But it's still a nice thought.)
