Stories of a Flawed Perfectionist

I was in the mood for blogging. Take note of the time, and it's nearly half past 1. I guess I have those impromptu, sudden urges to write, divulge my feelings so I could finally feel accomplished. And plus, a lot has happened. Mostly good, but there are some bad.

Currently, I'm surprised about my grades. As I look through the parent portal (otherwise known as the porthole - fondly quoted by my senior soc teacher, Mr. Baustein), I have all high A's. Of course, senior soc is an 83 - but that needs to be updated in lieu of the recent test grade. I'm surprised that it's now that my grades start to finally show off what I could really do. Or maybe my teachers are getting lazy... who really gives a shit anyways.

Today in Philosophy, we finished "Waking Life." It's this movie that has a lot of philosophical events and talks and it really striked me. For the past two days when we were watching it, I haphazardly fell asleep. (I hardly get any sleep and the room was just beautifully dark and calm. I just couldn't help myself.) I was about to sleep today while watching, but what the protagonist was going through - I could honestly relate to. It made me want to search for my answers for life even more. And plus, I already had a nice nap in Ecology - until Ross kicked my foot in order to wake me up...

I'm pretty excited for after school. I needed to get a job - so I decided to apply for the Sherman Theater. I sent in a crazy resume along with my application and not too long ago, I got a call. The woman told me that there isn't much openings now; it's all full because a lot of the ESU kids have "taken over" the premises. But when springs comes (which is not very long), the ESU kiddies would be off to the real world, into their new lives, and that gives me, little weirdo to finally have a job. So I have to meet with one of the ladies there to discuss potential jobs for me and what not. It's all pretty exciting stuff since my mom has always told me to find a job that would fit my interest and performances and just spotlight really intrigue me.

And also, I need money. Prom is coming up and I don't even have a dress or anything. Not that it really bothers me, I'm the biggest procrastinator in the whole world. I didn't do much today except ponder, cry, and cuddle.
