Day 23

Days in Review: On Monday we began our official practices outdoors on our school's tennis courts. My hands were swollen and itchy by the time five o'clock came around but I was still anxious to play. Turned out my mum wasn't able to get my medical in on time and I wasn't able to stay for practice. In a fitful rage I took the bus home. My mind was mainly focused on the anger so I dropped my metrocard without realizing it. Gah, I reported it the next day and I won't be able to get a replacement until next week Tuesday. Bummed about that. The hives are now starting to show up during random times of the day, which is new and just another addition to my plethora of problems.

Even though Monday was a major FAIL, Tuesday was a bit brighter. A friend brought me a huge movie poster for The Runaways (limited release March 19) as an early birthday present. She said that is was a leftover from her Aunt's restaurant, but I still think she stole it ;P. It was really unexpected but I love the poster and I really appreciate the thought. I still haven't decided where to put it. It's about the size of my bed and I have a limited amount of wall space. I'll probably end up posting it on my celing or using the slanted wall in my closet. I'll post pics when it's done.

I finally got to practice outside and I think I played well considering the terrible shape the courts are in. There are huge crevices on most of the courts and I think they're paved with asphalt, which makes the bounce and spin on the ball decrease significantly. Despite the crap, I enjoyed just hitting with the team again.

After practice I met Navraj at Wendy's and we chatted for a bit. He told me he got into York College but he's still waiting for the acceptance letters from two other schools. It suddenly dawned on me that mostly everyone that I have fun with in school is graduating this year. Everyone is moving on...I'll miss them but I'm happy for them.

Tuesday was also the day I was randomly kissed in front of half of my Math class and my Math teacher. I think kissed is the wrong word to use...it was more of an assault on my lips. Total violation of space, comfort zone completely smashed, mental stability at that point was wrecked. Okay, so it was kind of like a bird pokemon using peck. She did it quickly and swiftly and I was left in disarray. Even after the attack I walked alongside her as she told me my chapstick tasted good. I don't know why I attract the obsessives. I just don't push people way often enough. It's actually all pretty funny. Haha, it's even funnier now that as I'm typing this Jen Foster's "I Didn't Just Kiss Her" just began playing in itunes..

All in all it was just one bizarre Tuesday.

I'm glad I'm finally in Florida :). Well, I'm here for a funeral. I haven't lost sight of that, but I'm glad I'm away. I told my cousin something I've been meaning to say as the plane took off and she was super casual about it. I didn't expect such a receptive response, but I'm relieved it played out the way it did. Gives me more confidence.

My hair frizzed up 5 seconds after I got off of the plane..Florida is really muggy. The air is thick and stifling. It really makes everything smell weird. Don't think I'll make it until Sunday with my mum. There's bound to be some unprecedented brawling action. Florida is a new place with new arguements...

Miscellaneous Stuff Time:

In 9 more days I can watch rated R movies in theaters....legally. No more sneaking around with older friends. First on my list is The Runaways, of course :D.

I woke up WITH hives. That's a first. Not really liking the idea of day hives...I prefer their nocturnal appearances. At least I can hide in the shadows then.

What kind of hotel doesn't have wifi? A wack one. Don't go to a wack hotel. Especially with 10 other family members.

Funerals are crowded.

Planning to visit a friend at SUNY Purchase..car by then? Wishful thinking. I'll end up taking the train. There's no way I'm not going.

I've only missed two days of school and I already feel like I miss people. Most notably Helen :). Weird how I'm always saying I hate school...but I guess spending time with family can do that to a person. Especially when it's my family.

The End.
