- Don't Tell Me It's Over -

Leish and I went to Viewmont this morning and chatted with Busk and looked through the new yearbook- Whoa, a lot better than ours? I think that might be so. The cover is kinda lame-- but the inside is dang cool for the most part. After, we went and chilled in the commons for a bit since school was out at 12:30 because of spring fling.

I seriously enjoyed seeing everyone that was still there. I saw my little brother, Rossy, then ran into Mc k, Bryson, Ali, Levi Johnson, Maryelle, Anna, Jared, Jessica Jones, Kim and just a bundle of people that I havn't seen for too long. Man, I miss all that. AS LAME AS THAT SOUNDS/IS-- I miss high school, Still, And I'm a sophomore in College.

I've been thinking a lot about that, high school I mean, and I should have juiced it for all it was worth. I feel like I wasted that totally awesome few years of my life. Now, hanging out with Levi and other people I graduated with, I compare my life to theirs and it's like- Hello- Why didn't I live it up before responsibility hit me in the face? Why didn't I talk to people? Why did I have a boyfriend basically my whole senior year? Why didn't I ever try to make friends in my grade? Why did I ever feel awkward or out of place? Everyone in high school was just as insignificant to the world as I was-- Why didn't I realize this? Ha. Regrets about high school... I just got to make sure that I don't feel the same way about college when it's all said and done.

A few updates:

"Tear the roof off my life
and gut out my insides.
Hold me closer, hold me closer"

Sometimes I wish we lived in the world of Ash Ketchum. .. Where all that matters is becoming a Pokemon master of the universe by battling and winning gym badges.

This week has been one from.. the "H" word. I got lashed upon by a teacher (and it's going to happen again tomorrow because the dang museum I have to go to is only open from 10:00-5:00 and I couldn't make it in the last 48 hours), I pulled an all nighter to get my painting done. I was let down by my 'best friend', I failed a Computer Science test, I miserably and embarrassingly bombed my presentation in History of Photography- so bad I want to hide under my covers when I look at my class materials, I got in/ am in a fuster (not a real word) with someone who is really important to me, I couldn't make it to the Tax Tea Party, I won't be able to make it to GIRLTALK tomorrow at the U, and I could keep going.. WHY DOESN'T THE EARTHQUAKE JUST HAPPEN RIGHT NOW.. MAYBE IT'LL IMPROVE MY LIFE. < < < < That's a joke. I never EVER want that earthquake to happen!.. But point is, I just feel so drudged down.

I'm thankful for Rich and his 'happy thoughts' wink of encouragement that I received today, and for Mr. Busk. and his Beatles cover band. Without them, today would have been an awful amount more windy than it was already.

We (Elicia, Megan, and I) had the privilege of chilling with Mr. Dave Busk for a few hours today. We sat on the couch and had him take snaps of us so we could hang one on his alumni student wall.. it took plenty a shot to get the perfect picture, but we got it-



Here be some others-









This is the best picture we could get of Busk.. or should I just call him Prudence-
