Blogging from the HO-tel
I feel...clean. Summer always puts me in such a weird mood. And I've found something funny about myself. For some reason I think it's really funny to like kinda flirt with teenage guys in other cars when your on the interstate. Just to like wink at them, and smile and stuff. I don't know why, but I always do that for some reason. And I've now made it part of my checklist for life to go up to a teenage guy at a rest stop or somewhere like that and just like start making out with them, and then just walk away. Yea, I know that sounds really strange, but I think it would be fun to be just some strange girl whose completely intrigueing to some random guy. I don't know if that makes sense, but in my mind it would be really nice. Me and my mom were at the chamber of commerce this morning checking something out and this old man was holding the door for us and when we got to the door he said "That would be five dollars for all my services." in this really cute old man voice. It was so sweet. I know that's a lame story, but at the time there was something magical about it. I think I'm in love. Not really, but I'm totally crushing on this guy that was at another camp at the arts center this past week. His name is Colin. Erg...I'm such a teenager, I hate it. But, he plays the drums and he is a day older than me. And he's Irish. And he drinks blue sky soda. And he's so cute. I had a dream about him last night. And chances are I'll never see him again. So, that's great. I'm hoping that he takes lessons at the arts center. He goes to A-ville High. My friend from camp Maria also likes him though, but he would never go for her, because she's a total ditz. But she was flirting with him all week, and she has no idea I like him. But, whatevs. He said I was too quiet, it was kind of a cute moment. Daniel has turned into old news. I mean, yea, I still like him, but I'm just doing my best to forget about him, because I know nothing will ever happen. So, whatevs. In the hotel room the paintings are the same over both beds, it looks so stupid. I wonder what sort of idiot would have the wasted brains to think "Huh. I don't really feel like picking out two paintings, let me just have two of these." Must have been a man. I wish I had something to say...doodledoodledoodle. I packed so absently this morning. I have no idea what's in my suitcase right. I was just throwing things in the laundry and pulling things out of my closet with out any thought. I'm pretty sure I have like two pairs of shorts and 32 shirts. But whatevs, I'll make it work. I'm hoping that while I'm in m-i-s-s-i-s-s-i-p-p-i, I'll have the random urge to read all the time. Hey, maybe I'll read right now. I kinda want to read the 2 and 3 shottp again this summer, since I realized I remember nothing about them. I also want to finish my Audrey biography. And I'd like to read Sophie's World but it's like 800 billion pages long. And, oh yea, damn summer projects...grrrr. I guess I'm going to go read.
*evaporation.*

Sorry, that it's been such a long time, I've been busy dancing, sleeping, and being sick. I'm working on Cheating on Graham. I'm listening to Nellie McKay. I need to pack. And I need to clean my room. And shower, and shave. Oh and I need to do laundry, so that I actually have something to pack. I'm going to miss my mommy. I really don't have much to say though. If something hits me later I'll come back, but I really need to work on making that list of stuff to do a bit shorter.

SO.
Like the new template? I think it's pretty sweetacular. One more exam! So close...I'm so ready for summer. In a weird way, I wish more people would read this. But like in the Pump up the Volume kind of way. Like they went to my school and had no idea who was writing this, and would totally flip out if they ever found out it was me. I think that would be funny. Though I hope that mine wouldn't have the fate of prison. It's so hot in my house. So, I know you already know, but here's an official announcement...
I MADE ACADEMY!
It's so exciting. God, I hope I make the musical this year, I don't know what I'm going to do if I don't, It kills me to even think about not having been in it this year. I hate cane creek kids. They always get everything they want. I don't really, but seriously they all seem to think they are better than us, and it's just not true. They may have a flippin big load of money, but that doesn't mean anything. Reynolds is trying.
Summer projects are totally whack. There is like more work to do over the summer than there is within an actually semester. I'm not even sure they really have the right to our summers. It's so weird to think that school used to be an optional thing and now everything revolves around the school system. Your friends, your schedule, your blogposts, the trips you take, your reputation, your family is busy donating and working at the school. You wait for whats going to happen at school to see if you are going to get to visit your ill gradmother. It just seems sort of majorly ridiculous. It's not even that I don't understand it. I think school is really neccessary and everything. It jut seems odd that your entire life revolves around school. It's not just your education.
Okay well, on that note, I'm Elle Benny, and hoping for a very cool draft. Much love.
