So...I kind of fixed the schedule...-kind- of. I backed out of auditioning for the Bowers and he and I had an amusing lock changeout. Now I don't feel so rejected about the band thing. Fist hour...I meant first hour, is still with Ms.A ...I'm staying solely in there to develop a friendship with Tyler's brother and look at a certain Chong (doesn't ( Read more... )

Yuck. Just yuck. Disgusting is the only word I have to describe the contrived mess that's become of scheduling at East this year.
