Looks like I'm going to play ultimate frisbee today.
Last night was pretty fun. I'm so excited about the June 4th show now, though. I figured out BI-LEVEL is playing too. Man, I love them.
Boy, I'm going to put an awesome story in here.

Unicorn In A Human World
A collaboration by:
Amanda Beard
Amber Barber
Mrs. Vaeth

Suddenly Herbert the Unicorn hit ground, and hit hard. He opened his eyes to a foggy haze of dirty weeds and flowers. He heard the vague sound of the city and raised his head to see where the noise was coming from. Straight ahead, past the highway, there were as many skyscrapers as the eye could see.
Herbert's mind was saying one thing right now: "destination: city". He lifted himself to his feet and started to trot towards the huge metal objects moving very fast on the road. Obstacle one. One by one, the shiny metal objects whizzed by. Herbert gingerly skipped on the rough pavement. The screeching sound of brakes, horns blaring and metal crashing together echoed through Herbert's ears. Stunned he looked around and saw angry faces glaring at him and shouting awful things at him. Then the scary little beings began chasing him. Herbert ran for his life! These foreign beings were crazy and if they ever came at him again he would fight back - running was for cowards and he, Herbert the Daring, was no coward! Herbert continued walking forward. Before him was Destination City, but where should he go? How was he to get back home?
As Herbert continued to look around, he noticed a rainbow in the distance and as every good unicorn knows, if you run through the end of a rainbow and make a wish, it will come true. Herbert's problem was solved! He would find the end of the rainbow and wish to return home. The only problem? Those beady eyed crazy beings - they were everywhere! They were staring and pointing at Herbert and suddenly something snapped within him.
He made a mad dash through the city. If they caught him he would never get back to Unicornicopia. Herbert lowered his head, his horn glistened in the sunlight, the tip as sharp as a dagger, and he ran - ran straight into the crowds! He let out a blood-thirsty neigh! Thrusting and stabbing as he went, his once bleach white coat was now stained red. Blood was flying everywhere.
Days later we find Herbert the unicorn lying on the side of the road with brick colored stains all over his delectable mane. He rose to his knees slowly, the pain excruciating as he stood. He looked around. God, he thought, I killed everybody. He looked down at himself. Herbert was disappointed in his appearance. His horseshoes, they were cracking and hurt his hooves. His coat was not white at all anymore, but rather a disgusting I-went-on-a-killing-rampage-red color. And his horn. Oh, his horn! His precious horn! His pride and joy! The love of his life! It was not as sharp or shiny as it used to be! He needed to fix this problem right away. Herbert looked around for a solution. There was no solution in sight.

After days of searching, the answer to all his prayers to the Unicorn god had been answered! He had found a dry cleaner, and behind the desk sat a half-dead old withered Asian man, the owner of the store. He went in and came out a new unicorn! Then Herbert killed the Asian; delicately, so as not to ruin his new coat.
By this time, the mystical rainbow had disappeared. There was no way to get home. Good thing everyone was dead so Herbert could turn Earth into New Unicornicopia. I guess they weren't so different after all!

That's right, Mrs. Veath helped. She's really funny. I'm going to miss her over the summer. And most of the teacher in the Social Studies wing, because they all pretty much rule.
I miss Daniel. He's going to Chicago this weekend to see The Mars Volta, and Bright Eyes/The Faint. Haha, I almost typed "The Format."
Speaking of Format, I love Brandon. He sent me a super cool surprise in the mail, that I haven't gotten yet, but boy I am excited.
Hmm, I thought maybe we were getting cell phones today, but I really don't think we're going to. And since we're not going to today, I doubt I'll ever get one..
You guys should all donate me money so I can get a car.
I decided that Friday I'm just going to have ADPH get me in free and just give them 5 dollars, because they're the only band I want to see anyway.
Kinder got his haircut. Haha. He no longer has long, flowing hair. But it still looks good, so that's alright.
Most boys are really weird. I can think of a select few who aren't all "I'm crazy" but the rest, man.
Speaking of crazy, Dave's hair looks so stupid. I just want to punch him in his big, stupid, emo face and shave that ugly, ugly hair off. Man, it's probably the worst haircut I've ever seen. But then again, his old hair sucked too.
I am extremely bored.
I love Amanda!
I wonder what happened to Jade last night. She and Mike didn't say good-bye.
Haha, Ms. Stupidzog hates me and Amber. But that's okay. I wonder if she'll hate us even more because of our unicorn story. When I was dropping it off in her room I was like "Enjoy reading it, because it's FANTASTIC!" But when we put Mrs. Veath's name on it, we made it really small because I'm pretty sure having a teacher write part of the story is sort of against the rules. But who cares! I bet we get an A. And if not, oh well, because I have a 103 in there.
You know what's funny? Mae and Straylight Run both have a song called "Mistakes We Knew We Were Making." Oh ho ho.
Love, Amanda
