So I'm in a band now. Keyboardist. Even though I don't know how to play the keyboard.  

And I might have a cruh on somebody a little which could be good or bad, depending. 

Anyway, the play is going well. Memorized the first two acts but the last one escapes me. It's a little awkward, n this one scene someone jumps into my arms and I "hold them romantically." Intense stuff. 

Got a 100 on an algebra test......that's about it for me.

Hello there, journal. 

Sorry I've pretty much neglected you for a couple months...Whoops on my account, I guess. 
So I figure I can make excuses or I can explain, and I've always liked explanations way better:

I'm busy. What can I say. I am a high school student who is in too many activities. But more so, I've been trying to avoid the computer lately because it tends to be a source of conflict and whatnot, and life's full of enough of that anyhow. 

Okay, but enough of that. I love Azure Ray alot lately. If Bright Eyes and peaceful melodies had some sort of incestuous tryst, the resulting lovechild would be Azure Ray. Also anything by Ben Gibbard blows my mind. 

I should clarify: I have mild/moderate synesthesia, so sound, especially music = colors, smells, tastes and things like that to me. So once I find something I like, it sticks with me whther I want to. Example: The song "Such Great Heights" isstringy and yellow and orange and taste like macaroni. Yeah, weird. 

Hm...what else to talk about. Oh yeah. got the lead in the play. Woohoo. Which is weird as hell, becuase I'm not much of an actor. But hey, don't look the gift-horse in the mouth or hoqwever that saying goes.  And also I am overwhelmed by school. I hate the people and the lifestyle and the struggle for grades and the competition for varsity sports. But it's cool. Just a few more years. 

The sad thing is, this year art's gotten really serious. I really don't know if I can take the AP requirments and all, but my teachers are encouraging. All I can do is try.

That's the ticket. Trying. 
So I'll keep it up, you keep it up too, kids. 

Cheers.
