s'posed to go to a basketball banquet. Of course, Dad's late in picking me up to go, and I can't drive the truck cuz the headlights are out and it's too dark to go without them. It's been going for 15 minute already, and I know I'll probably get there when it's over. Why do I trust my dad to be ontime, ever? He never is.
Sprained my ankle yesterday. Guess that means I won't be throwing for a little while. Eh... I only need two more practices, and I can participate in the meet next Saturday, assuming that the ankle heals. Also, it makes it difficult to work out at the Valley, but i can work around it.
Throwing is such a crap sport. No offense to anyone who throws.... i'm a thrower myself, and I'm denouncing it.
Finally understanding/keeping up with calculus. Senioritis seems to have a reverse effect on that class for some reason.
REALLY excited for Tolo - inexplicably so. it's not gonna last that long (dinner isn't until 8:30) but I think it'll be fantastic. Hopefully my ankle won't bug me too much. Better not wear heels.
This is a boring blog, isn't it? Eh, well, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

I wonder if what I am about to write is contradictory to the nature of weblogs.
Ah, what the heck.
I am in jubilant spirits. Things just seem to keep getting better. Aside from one little hectic, frusterating anti-social 90-minute period of time yesterday, I feel like I'm discovering new things about myself every day. Even though I'm not getting any more sleep than usual, I feel (for the most part) awake, and I actually want to learn, and I put effort into it, even into thing I usually find boring and dreary like calculus. My efforts to lose weight seem to finally be manifesting themselves, and I feel that I am truly in athletic shape, and am getting better with every workout. I enjoy working out. what is that? wow. Opportunities for college seem to be throwing themselves at me. I find that I look forward to lots of things now, like the basketball dessert night this Friday and Tolo the following evening. I'm planning. I can see my future in clearer focus than ever before (not that that's saying much, but it IS clearer).
On the downside, we're at war, and words cannot express how much that sucks. A much more insignificant negative is the fact that I've stopped doing homework, but I suppose I can get away with that, being a senior and all.
I was going to get online a few days ago and complain about how bad my life was. That would have been an interesting contrast, from then to today. Who knows if my attitude will change drastically in the next week or two... but I have hope. And I think that's all I need.
