Reply to this entry with one of the best moments of your life.

Today has been a wonderful day. I'll try to remember it all in the best detail possible. I woke up and got ready like always, but what I think really made the day special is the fact that on the busride to my next bus, I listened to one song. It was Yoko Ishida's "OPEN YOUR MIND ~spread the small wings~"...which is such a pretty song! I got to school and we all prayed in prayer group and first block was pretty good. Not very memorable, but I'll live. Second block was good. Also not memorable, but I don't have any complaints really! Of course for a moment of any day we all feel foolish and worthless and this day was no exception, but it quickly passed! In third block, we're reading the Great Gatsby. I live through reading the books in English by watching movies in my head! My version of the Great Gatsby stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Zach Braff, Courtney Brooke, Chris Parnell, me...(I have to include myself somehow or else the story will mean nothing to me, right!) I haven't found Keira Knightley yet, but I'm sure she's coming. She always shows up in the books I read. Fourth block was alright. I forgot my glasses so I couldn't take any notes so I stared at the picture of my soul the whole hour and wrote poetry. Lunch was good. Really good. I sat with my friend Sarah, and Ashley got out of class to sit with us. Ashley told the corniest joke EVER and the three of us laughed SO hard. I thought I was going to throw up or cry or both. My stomach hurt so bad. It felt so good though. i haven't laughed that hard since I don't know when. The boy next to me kept asking what we were laughing SO hard at but I just couldn't tell him because honestly, it wasn't all that funny! But something about it just grabbed us all. I had been reading Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants which lately has made me more aware of my friends lately so I was thankful for such a moment. (I'm Lena, by the way.) Anyhoo, then I went to Drama and practiced lines with a girl who cracked me up so bad. It was the greatest thing ever. I am so going to draw a fairy for her. ^_^ Sixth block, we went to the gym and my friend Morgan pounced me and we talked for a long time about all the things we should do and all the things we've done...and also, a girl who hardly ever realizes my existence asked me if I wanted to walk with her and it was SO nice. There wasn't really any awkwardness of communication at all. Then I went back to Drama room to practice lines which was awesome. I also got to see our shirts which have Jacob on the back of them...in his socks. It's hilarious but I love it. Then I got on the bus to go home and it took forever to get to my next bus. I got a bad case of cabin fever. Seriously. It was so good. Then I came home and me and my brother rapped for about an hour. Then we picked up my aunt and headed for Daddy's house. I watched a few episodes of That 70s Show and a few scenes of the Good Girl (JAKE. GYLLENHAAL.)...and then we went out to rent some movies. I got In Her Shoes, which I'm watching now. Oh yeah, at the videostore I saw a guy I haven't saw in forever! Like, a few years ago I really liked him and tried to stand within ten feet of him at bonfires and tried to take his hand at dances and ate breakfast with him whenever possible and then found out that he was completely GAY. ^_^ haha, how fun to be young... anyhoo, he was all like "Rebecca!" and I was like "Tabitha." and he was like "Didn't I go to school with you?" and I was like "Yup. Think it will snow?" and he was like "I hope." and then he said something as I walked out the door which was totally uncromprehendable (irrcomprehendable?) and I just smiled and nodded like "yaaa". Haha. Anyhoo, then we went to Wal-Mart and on our way in I smiled at some guy cause he reminded me of Angel on RENT (you know the crossdressing one?) and then inside I smiled at one of the preppy little Freshman who I'm usually all grr about. She smiled back! Heyyy. And then when we left it was raining sooo hard that I couldn't even keep my eyes open. It was so fun trying to find my way to the car. We got home and I watched Best Week Ever and Daddy paid me five dollars to write an e-mail and commented "Don't you kids just feel GOOD tonight?" and I really do. ^_^ I feel like writing letters to everyone I know or something. It's wierd. But good! Many thanks to Yoko.

Happy is me. I have adopted the lovely Maria Mena song, "Just a Little Bit". --->[link] shabam! Jealous?
I am very proud. This song is quite me.

Just a little bit stronger, just a little bit wiser, just a little less needy and maybe I'd get there...
Just a little bit pretty, just a little more away, just a little bit thinner and maybe I'd get there...
Clearly, clearly I remember hiking up my skirt and asking for your time.
Clearly, clearly I remember nervous if ever confronted and questioning myself.
Oh perhaps, perhaps if I got better.
Perhaps if I challenged myself.
Perhaps if I was just a little bit stronger, just a little bit wiser, just a little less needy and maybe I'd get there.
Just a little bit pretty, just a little more aware, just a little bit thinner and maybe I'd get there.
Clearly, cleary I remember pulling up my shirt and staring blank ahead.
Clearly, cleary I remember days of useless crying and almost feeling dead.
Oh perhaps, perhaps if I was smaller, perhaps I could control myself...
