This was Sunday, right? Okay.

It was a church day for me, so I woke up early (still delirious about last night's win) and ate breakfast with the family before heading out. I may have fallen asleep once or twice (or continuously) throughout the whole sermon, I'm not sure ...

Afterwards we got some Chinese take-out from Eggroll Stix (?) and brought it home to watch the Knicks game, boohoo. And then ... I finally did my Invisible Man essay which I had nine weeks to complete. Advanced Procrastination for the win.

I was supposed to finish my novel for sure before I went out. However ... if I have learned anything about myself during the past two months it's that I can procrastinate really well and no amount of threatening myself is ever going to change that. I'll just have to accept myself for what it is. 

Today was a big day. HUGE. I mean, huge for anyone at my school who cares at all about the basketball team. Because today, we claimed the Division I Championship for the third time in the row. THREEPEAT! The school organized a couple of charter buses to take us to Power Balance, and my friends and I ended up riding in the bus with the cheerleaders. We were a little behind schedule so I was scared that we were going to be late and miss the first part of the game and be humiliated by all the Jesuits. However, the game in front of us (I think it was Division I Girl's?) went into double overtime, so we ended up being pretty early.

Before the game, the guys from Jesuit (who is our top rival school when it comes to basketball) were being total douches and it totally confirmed for me that private school kids are the baddest kids. There was so much disrespect going on but, hey, I guess we would be disrespectful to them too if we had lost seven games in a row to them including two Division I championship games! Pretty much the entire stadium was filled with their people, since I guess a lot of alumni showed up and their guys were coming out full-force. And their cheers were actually pretty intimidating since they're an all-boys school so there was all kinds of deep-voiced testosterone going on lol. However, no amount of pent-up man-hormones could let them win! Our boys are legacies, and everyone hates us haha. 

There was some sort of celebration in the bus on the way back which included dancing to whitepeoplesongs and generally being really obnoxious to the people that were sleeping. Sorry guys, but you really should be more pumped up.

So today officially ends my last third term of my high school career! After this is my absolute last term and then I will be graduating. God the prospect is terrifying/exhilarating.

I only had one final today in Physics, which I think I did okay on. During my TA period I caught up on my reading for my AP English class since that's staring next Monday, oops. A nine week break definitely does not mean I'm going to get things done on time.

After school, Lenneris came over and we talked about our "relapsing" problems when it comes to boys. Seriously, boys suck and we suck. Somehow she ended up looking through my albums from when I was a kid and then we watched a VHS of me as a baby haha. Honestly, I just don't know. Then my dad came home and took me to the DMV so that I could get my ID picture taken for an ID card for when we go to Hawaii (!!! still so excited it's ridiculous). The wait was ridiculous of course, and I probably look like a fool but who really cares?

Today was the first day of finals! These are my grades before my teachers put the finals in, so obviously I really should have been studying instead of worrying about basketball yesterday, but it's too late for that now. I had my Gov and Econ tests today, and ... I don't want to jinx it so I won't say anything except that I could have spent a lot more time getting ready for it. It was also my last day of Gov and it was sad, even though I'm still TAing for him next term, because that was honestly my favorite class of the term and I sincerely do not want to be replacing it with English. Whoever decided that it was a good idea to put two huge two-hour tests back-to-back on finals day deserves to rot. Gov and Econ are my two hardest classes, too. Luckily, my Gov teacher was nice and played a little bit of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon after our test to ease the burden a little. 

It was cold and sort of drizzly when I got out (early! the only good thing about finals) so I called my mommy because she started work late today and asked her to pick me up. Then I watched some ratchet Morgan Freeman film that was on the TV, took a nap, and wasted the rest of the day online as per usual. I feel like this post is really fragmented and makes no sense. I guess I've been writing too much and I've forgotten how to use the English language. I really should go study for Physics.

Late start Wednesday, aye. I went to school early because I had test corrections for my Econ class. When school started, Sara and I had a very awkward conversation with one of our teachers haha. Um. In second period the class went to watch the Shakespeare Festival performance that they always have in our performing arts center, in which actors from Oregon (I think) come and do original or (obviously) Shakespeare plays. The original ones are usually pretty good, but this one was Macbeth, so I took it upon myself to take a nap. For third and fourth period, we played review games. In Gov it was vocabulary bingo and then the running game, which I'm pretty sure that I've mentioned it before. I didn't win anything; in fact, I kind of lost it for my team lol. Honestly, the kids in AP classes are ridiculous when it comes to winning some extra credit. Then in Econ, we "played" this trivia thing where we're divided into groups and text in the answers to questions he pulls up and yeah. It's not even a game, but it was for extra credit so it was worth it to participate, though I don't know who won yet.

Also, I know I should've been totally focused on writing my novel but I was distracted because I was watching out for updates about the semifinal basketball game that was going down at Power Balance Pavilion. We won! So the final game is on Saturday and it'll be against Jesuit! They're the team that we won against only by a tip-in the last time, so I'm anxious as hell and I really want to go! Not sure if the school's going to be organizing a charter bus this year or what, since we're poor now, so if not I'll have to find someone to give me a ride.

You know what's really sad? I can't remember a single thing about Tuesday, but I feel like there was something significant going on. Ugh.

I know that if I don't update this now, I'll continue to put it off and end up with an abandoned blog. I TOTALLY have an excuse this time but whatevs. You'll read about that later.

Monday was the start of finals week, so of course, it was all review and very boring. I learned something really disappointing about someone who I thought was a friend and I really can't get over it. I don't want to go into details because he really isn't worth it, but I'll just say that it's really fucked up to play with someone's feelings when you don't even know yourself what you're feeling.

In other news, I reached my hundred-page minimum on my novel! I'm not done, but I think I can start to relax a little now that I've met all the goals in time.
