A Boy's Dream.

I found myself sitting at the computer doing nothing again, and since it's too late to practice my bari, I thought I should finally write something for once.

On Wednesday, I went to Senior Boat Cruise and I think my poor virgin eyes were scarred forever. There was much dirty dancing going around, even some of the people that I were innocent began doing it. Luckily, I managed to stay clean and kept my hands to myself, except when Will made me dance with him. I originally took Daniel to Boat Cruise and Will took Schwanka, but halfway through, Will and I somehow switched dates. For the record, Will is a very dominant partner. The main reason I went to Boat Cruise was because I heard that the food was good, and it was. It was white people food, but it still tasted good. They had pasta, rice pilaf, bread, and chicken with a white people sauce, er, white sauce. There was even dessert. Yay, cookies! I think the best part of Boat Cruise was when Mr. Andersen danced with everyone. At the JSA conventions, we're all going to do the "Mr. Andersen" at the dances.


For the past couple of days, I feel like I've been eating and sleeping a lot. It makes me feel like...a Snorlax. But at least today was a great way to work off all of that "fat," by attending the annual Rotary Clean-Up at school. I got there at about 7:30 and I was the first student there...I think. Then, I proceeded to pick up trash for about four hours and 90% of the time, I was all alone. I'm kind of used to working by myself though, having completed a single-person film project over the summer. The only thing that's kind of weird about it is...myself. I have the most random conversations with myself when I'm alone. Of course, all the banter occurs only in my head, or else others would look at me with strong aversion. It's funny how un grupo de hispanohablantes just sat down and watched me clean up the side of the school (Talk about breaking the Mexican stereotype!). I think I picked up 3245 pieces of garbage today. Well, probably not, but it sure felt like it! I know I killed two spiders with a rake though; that was an accomplishment that I'm proud of.

Interesting things that I found while cleaning up: padlocks, film strips, a half-buried spork, disintegrating plastic, a water bottle with paint in it, and a silver spoon. There might have been other things, but I can't remember at the moment...

I have a feeling that I got really tan today. I hope I'm not darker than Trixy now...that would be terrible. I also think it's sadly ironic that people who helped out at the Clean-Up ended up littering at the end. I've also developed this habit of searching for trash on the ground now, except in my own room of course.

Note to self: I need to find my Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I want another shiny card to put in my ID pouch this week. I figure that I'll rotate between shiny cards every week, you know, to give all of my cool cards a chance in the spotlight. I also need to make my deck better. Haha, it'd be embarrassing to lose to Dyana's brother and his straight-from-China cards.


I'm also very interested in doing another self film project. The thing I like about working by myself is that there's no one to argue with about direction and there's no one else to blame for mistakes. Though, that's not to say I don't enjoy working with others (Having company makes things fun!). Anyway, I just need to get a good idea. It might be tough though since the weather might not be ideal for long. Let's face it, cold weather (even though I love it) doesn't exactly make for good filming weather...or does it? Hmm...I wonder...

P.S. Hopefully this post slightly makes up for my recent inactivity, though I think this post is a tad too lengthy.

P.P.S. The title is that of a really cool song by Jay Bocook.
