I was peeling an orange and felt very sentimental doing so.

Seriously, my high school classmates rock.
Particularly the ones that were in AP Physics and AP Japanese with me.  Which is like nine people XD

Having girl talk with guys that you have nothing but platonic relationships with is fun XD because you can trust their insights about other guys :D

I haven't been able to stop listening to the acoustic and original version of this song:
