Today was so awesome, a half-day of school and super fucking chill. I didn't pay attention at all in any of my classes, i just drew and listened to music. All my classes went by fast today (other than it being a half day). I had a quiz in NSL that I think I did pretty well on. Other than that there was nothing to do in any of my other classes. I decided not to retake this one quiz in French because I decided I could just take the C (15.5/20). It wasn't too cold today, even though Mark was complaining the whole time, while waiting for the bus, that it was cold. Well it's his fault he didn't bring a jacket or anything.

After school Mark and I took the metro up to Gaithersburg to go to meet Emily, Maribeth, and a few other people at Chipotle. We ended up not eating at Chipotle, but at Quiznos. After that we walked around a bit more and people bought/ stole stuff from Barnes & Nobles. Haha. I found it kind of funny. After that, Mark and Maribeth left to go to Maribeth's house to do whatever they planned. Emily, Ana, Ben, Allie, Cameron,Zach, and I walked to the Lakeforest Transit Center, but about a half hour later, we realized that the bus we needed to take to get to Allie's house didn't stop there. So, we took a different bus, got off at some place (I forgot where) and waited. While we waited I got out my iPod speakers and we chilled and listened to music. We proceeded to drawing stuff on the side of the glass of the bus stop thing. After waiting for so long, the bus came and we finally went to Allie's.

Her house was pretty tight I guess. I played her classical guitar and a bit of her electric. We started watching the movie Office Space but didn't finish it because we all lost interest in the movie and ended up just wanting to leave. We walked all the way to Cameron's house from Allie's. It wasn't too bad of a walk, just very long. We stopped and waited for the bus several time but eventually just gave up and decided to walk the rest of the way. We went through this Military recruiting place or something. We went down into this creepy kind of stairwell that had steel doors and chains on it for a bit until we reached the bottom and no one wanted to brave on in front and lead. Apparently sometimes homeless people stay there sometimes. As it started to get dark we neared Cameron's house. I think his house is pretty big. It's also pretty tight. We played guitar/ drums/ bass/ that other good stuff, listened to loud music, played pool, watched some movies, and just chilled. I left around like 10:45 or something, I think. Ana's mom came and took Emily home and drove me to the Shady Grove metro station. I got on the metro at sometime around 11:00 and got home around 11:45. I'm glad I ran up the escalator at Medical Center because right as I got to the 34 stop, the bus arrived. I was saved from waiting in the cold.

After I got home I had to knock on the door because my parent's were asleep. I think I woke up my mom. I put all my stuff away and went downstairs to get apple cider and raspberries, which were deliciously awesome. After that I was pondering whether or not I should get one of my stencils and go spray paint a road sign a street from my house. I ended up going out to spray paint it. While I was painting, I got nervous because there weren't many cars around but when there was one, I thought that they would stop. Haha. After I finish painting I realized that there was some guy in a car watching me because the light was red, so I walked quickly back to my house. I got a bit more nervous carrying a spray paint can and a stencil as about 5 more cars passed me out of no where. Ah well, it was a good experience though, I guess. I think what I spray painted up on the sign was terribly shitty because of my hurrying. Ah well, at least I didn't get caught or what not. That would have really sucked. I think I'm going to go check up on it tomorrow (well, today I guess, but later).

Well, since today is Thanksgiving, I'm eating dinner and doing stuff with my family and their friends. I think Emily is probably coming over to chill here and eat dinner here. Mark might hang out too. Also maybe Spencer. My mom bought the tofurkey stuff already. Woo vegetarian stuff! I hope that not many people go outside on Thanksgiving so that I can have a fun time painting the walls under a bridge and spray some new stencils and maybe do other stuff.

It's getting late, not really I suppose but whatever. It's 12:48, I'm tired and I still need to take a shower. I think I'm going to go to sleep very soon.

This post is most likely to be short. Nothing much of interest happened today. School was generally boring. I took a 2 hour nap today. Haha, fun right? I usually don't take naps. I was so tired today.

In first period, we went over safe sex and all this other boring shit. It's such a lame way to start the day. Second period we watched a video on the state and local governments. Third period always sucks. It's Precalc. My teacher is seriously half deaf. My worst class of the day (I think...) Fourth period, wind ensemble, we played our instruments like always. We got a new piece a couple of days ago, so we worked on that. Lunch, I went in for a re-teach in French. After lunch I had French. It didn't go by so quick. Sixth was chemistry. We had a test today which I don't think I did too well on. I think English has become one of my better classes this quarter. I have a high B in that class and we're reading the Odyssey. It's not that bad a book. I stayed after school with Alex to help him with his photography stuff. It turned out to be really boring. He needed help with like everything, I'm not even joking. He didn't remember anything he learned.

Hmm... What else did I do today? Well, I'm not sure.

On to tomorrow! I think I'm going to bring my iPod speakers to school and not my binders. I might bring my longboard tomorrow too. After school should be fun. I'm going to Gaithersburg with Mark and meeting up with Maribeth, Emily, Allie, and all those other people who I fail to remember. I think we're going to Chipotle then to some kid's party. Mmmm sounds fun. :]

I think that's all for today. If I should bring anything else tomorrow, IM me or text me. Sleepy time soon.

Une Anée Sans Lumière

I'm so glad we only have two and a half days of school this week. Too bad I have like 3 tests/ quizes tomorrow and a couple on Wednesday...
Ahh well, I'm still looking forward to getting days off, even though I'm not going to do anything. I hope I can go to DC sometime this week/ weekend. That would be fun.

I want to go put up some more street art sometime soon. It was fun last time I did it. I'm still pondering whether I should make a person out of newspaper and wheatpaste he/she to a wall. I'd really like to make some stickers and put 'em on some stuff.

Yup another short blog today. I think the song Peacebone by Animal Collective makes me happy. Mmm good song. You should go listen to it.

Asleep On A Sunbeam

Nothing interesting happened today. Cousins. Home Depot. Spray paint. Flute. Guitar.
I think I'm going to write up my holiday wishlist later because people have been asking me what I wanted.

13 Seconds

Today wasn't too bad. It was boring. Not much happened. I ran errands with my parents.
When we went to Hardware City today, I bought a paint respirator! Which I'm happy about getting. I also bought two more cans of spray paint! Yay!
After I got home, I painted a bit. Then, Mark, Emily, Maribeth, and Daniel came over and just sat around my house. Well, at least my being grounded is almost at an end. I want my own damn record player...

The Moon

So, the rest of today ended up not as eventful as I thought it would be. I went to Mark's dad's party at like 7:00. I took pictures of random people I didn't know, then, later of Metrophish and some of Billy Woodward & The Senders. Before starting to take pictures I got this huge ass mother fucking stomach-ache that hurt so damn much. To add to that I almost threw up in the bathroom. After my fun bathroom time I got some Coke which eased up my stomach. When both bands finished playing. Collin, Mark, and I went up to Mark's dad's office to hang around and eat. We were planning to play Super Smash Bros. Brawl but Ethan forgot to bring the cables that hook into the T.V.
Later, Andy, Mariana, and Daniel joined us and we just lay around the office listening to music. When Andy and Collin leave to go downstairs,l Daniel decides to go over to the computer and change the music that was playing, which was Pedro The Lion. It was nice, chill music, but no, he has to change it to some heavier stuff that didn't fit the mood at all. Mark and I kind of yelled at him until he informed us that he had to go to the bathroom. We changed it back to the music that was playing before. Mariana drove Mark, Daniel, and I home. Well, more like to Mark's house. Mark didn't want Daniel going into his house, only to leave way later than Mark wanted him to. It didn't stop Daniel. We hung around Mark's house for a bit, Daniel and Collin left after Mark got a bit pissed at Daniel. Hehe
I just got on his computer after that and randomly commented on peoples facebook statuses with "orly" or something random. I left his house at around 12:30. I ended up not having a super awesome late night adventure. Oh woe is me. Today (Saturday) I get to either A) hear my mom bitch to me about grades or B) give me a boring lecture. Sunday will most likely resemble Saturday.

I'm pretty psyched for the 2.5 day week coming up.

Where Eagles Dare

Today was pretty good, I'm a lot happier and glad it's Friday. I'm Not going to write much now because not very much has happened today. I'll get on later, maybe midnight or so, and edit this post (maybe make a new one?).

Mark should stop being sick and go to school. He was well enough to go to school today. Just didn't feel like it. Lame, should have gone. Not fair that he gets a 3 day week.

I hope the rest of my day turns out good. I might have a midnight adventure or something. Hmm. Yep.

Random playlist time!
