In a realm where normal things don't happen very often today was a very unusual day. If that didn't make sense - today was bland and normal. The past few days have been busy, so busy that I haven't had a chance to sit down and write much, so allow me a chance to recap quickly, as I've had the habit of doing in the past few entries.

Liz and Amanda invited me to come over to Amanda's house so that Liz and I could spend some time together. Things went pretty well. Nick and Liz came back over to my house for awhile, but they left pretty abruptly after. Liz told me, "I'll call you tomorrow".

The next day, in school, which was yesterday, I had a lot of homework and there was quite a bit of stress in my classes. All I can say is that I'm looking forward to swing dancing. I ended up being overexposed to the sun, which reacted with my Minocyclin and caused a migrane. It was pretty painful on top of all the stress, and the fact that the strained tendon in my knee was giving me a hell of a hard time. I don't even know if I've had a chance to mention that at all: I self-diagnosed that the damage in my knee is a strained tendon, my doctor can't see me for three weeks. That was rather frustrating. On with Wednesday however - the day ended, and I got no phone call from Liz. On the alternative, I played Starcraft against Sexy_Champster (Merlin's favorite Warcraft III partner), and he beat me several times. He is indeed a very talented player, and I think I could learn a lot playing against him over the course of the next few months. Hopefully we'll play a lot and I won't lose all too much :). I was amazed at his tactics. (Going back a little) - In Spanish class we have a project to design a car and label all the parts. I modified the car from The Cat in the Hat and made it look even more hardcore than it already is. Now, I've designed the "Gatostang", (Catstang), and it comes complete with a smiley face on the dash.
Today came around, and I remembered that I had to finish Demian for the test first period. That was a bit of a drag, but nonetheless it was really cool. I managed to write the best essay of my life on that very book once I'd finished it, and I think that it was also the best test I've taken all year. Fourth and six period weren't all that interesting, but we're learning about The Third Reich, which is a pretty cool topic.

I broke down and called Liz. I felt as though I was cheating myself when I did so, but it's really a small thing to even think about. I feel as though when someone tells me they're going to call me and they don't that they've lied to me. And in a way, she did, but at the same time I'm not going to hold it against her because she explained herself to an extent and it seems like she was going through a lot. I just disagree with dishonesty, and I don't feel a person should make a commitment that they aren't going to follow through with. I think that's perfectly understandable and that I shouldn't be held up against a wall (metaphorically) for saying that. There's a lot of emotions that fly around during a relationship such as the one I'm in right now, and the emotions are certainly flying - it's confusing, but it's not bad. It's just that I don't feel too great right now, being that I have a migraine from overexposure to the sun with that medication, and with the emotional stress of the situation that I'm describing I'm sure you can understand at least some of what I'm trying to communicate.
I think I got tanner lying out in the sun today.

I feel like I owe an explanation for something I don't understand right now, it's a very odd feeling, and it's making me feel rather uncomfortable.
Merlin and I had a very deep and good conversation last night. I'm glad we had it. It soothed me quite a bit.

I'm going to get going because that incredible gamer challenged me to a match, and I'd like the experience. Ricky burned me a copy of Ayumi Hamasaki's music, it's really a neat mix. (For those of you who don't know, she plays Japanese pop/rock) It's an interesting mix and I'm feeling very culturally literate. Although I don't understand hardly anything of what she's saying, I love the melodies. I also downloaded some European techno off the internet to add to my collection, which I've also been enjoying.

My Dad bought a new car. It's exciting because I can now officially drive the Buick, but the way he went about doing it was really bad. He didn't communicate with either myself or my mom, didn't talk the dealer down, and the entire thing has my family under a lot of stress and in an emotional wreck. It's gonna drive us into poverty because he took out a loan to get the car - he was just impatient. Since my grandma died, inheritance should be coming in to my mother soon, he should have waited . . . I don't want to offend him, I love him so much, but this was a stupid decision not to wait for summer sales.

A lot of good things lately, but I'm overtired and I need a break. I'm looking forward to this weekend, my birthday party, and of course . . . swing dancing.
Take care my friends.
