HMMMM I don’t even know where to start because it’s been quite a while.  I suppose it’s time for…

RECENT EVENTS! [in whatever order I remember them] and FUTURE EVENTS [if I am excited enough about them]
a brief list by j.coppa

• PROM
  Prom happened.  It was actually fun (contrary to expectations!) and I ended up thoroughly enjoying myself.  I was like DREADING it big time for whatever reason, but it was seriously great and I was pleased.
• THE OPEN MIC NIGHT
  I don’t remember any specifics about this really, except that it was really FUN and that I was forced to exhibit my lame karaoke skillz (thanks, everyone). And also I can totally see the appeal of joining that cultish FVCN youth group because their setup is SWEET.  And also, during the course of this event, I realized something unfortunate but extremely extremely true.
• THE CHORUS CONCERT
  Lawlz.  Where I fulfilled my dreams of being a black baptist minister in a gospel choir, and also where I had to awkwardly slam some poetry.  Wonderful and terrible.
• THE MYSTERIOUS PARTY AT JOON-HO LEE’S
  Wild. times.  Where we learned that trail mix, unsuspecting Jule & Miriah, and tickle fights can be a lethal combination.  Also where we learned that the makeshift burkha is not really my best look.
• THE EVANSBURG TRIP
  OK what the heck, I went on this trip last year and it was a leisurely day of frisbee and guitar playing and barbecuing. Thoroughly enjoyable.  THIS YEAR we were sent on like, a legit orienteering course and I ended up bushwhacking through the wilderness for three hours, scaling cliffs and getting all tangled up in the underbrush and like, great.  It was so nuts.  It was actually pretty hilarious but I was sort of stunned that our gym teachers thought that after just skipping around with a map of our OWN SCHOOL, the campus of which we are COMPLETELY FAMILIAR with, that somehow we would be prepared to just be unleashed in the wilderness with nothing but a compass (LOL like anyone was paying attention for how to use that) and a map.  But apparently it wasn’t that outrageous because a bunch of teams had actually no trouble, so I guess maps just aren’t my thing. What. Ever. Anyway this bullet is entirely too long.
• THE SEASON FINALE OF ANTM
  Not going to lie, I was hoping that Allison was going to win.  But unfortunately T.Banks has not gone crazy enough for something like that to happen.
• THE SEASON FINALE OF GOSSIP GIRL
  Oh my goddddd, FINALLY something goes right in the world. 
• WALLEYBALL!
  This time I got to go to the theatre co. walleyball game at kinetix and it was such fun!
• MEMORIAL DAY PARTY
  This party is good every year, but this year especially turned out to be fantastic.  Except for like the most ridiculous game of kickball of all time followed by the most ridiculous game of frisbee of all time.  But Pepe Lopez helped us to cool down from those high tension games, and in the end it was all a success.
• SIENA’S 21st BIRTHDAY
  is tomorrow, and I am going on an ADVENTURE up to South Orange, NJ to help her celebrate!!  It’s going to be great.  Except that I made a superb mix CD for the journey and my traveling companion E.Brown’s radio doesn’t fucking work.  So now this poor CD is feeling like, majorly lost and rejected.  But anyway.  I’m excited.
• GYM CLASS TOMORROW
  This is not even a notable event except that like, great, I just remembered I’m supposed to bring Iced Tea for our campout and I don’t even have any.
• GRADUATION
  AHHHH oh my god, I have gone from feeling like, STOKED, to reluctant, to just like 100% SAD that this is about to occur!!!  I mean, despite probably 234563524 complaints that I have registered about it, I just love high school, I do.  And there are two weeks left of it.  And now all the yearbook signing and reminiscing and speculating about the future has begun, and it makes me want to burst into tears.  Not to mention that like, Ms. Ladson was talking about paying bills and credit cards last class, and it seriously made me feel ILL because like.  GREAT.  I am so not ready to be a functioning adult it makes me want to die. 
• SENIOR SHOW
  Shoot. me.
• SUMMER
  LOL regardless of my mixed feelings about graduation, I honestly can’t believe that we are still going to school and like getting grades for things haha.  I am 100% summerfied.

Anyway this list could go on lamely forever but I don’t feel like it.  I’m surprised I even scrounged up any energy to write on here at all.  I have just not been feeling the old blog lately.  My favorite thing to do on here is COMPLAIN and I just have had like, not much to whine about lately. 

later.
