Being Bored

im in seventh period right now being bored and i know i havent posted in a while but i still have nothing to say. um... apparently today is the five-month aniversary for alana and i. i didnt know that until she told me. i never remember stuff like that because i dont think its necessary. maybe when its like a year aniversary. i dont celebrate my birthday every month so i shouldnt acknowledge our aniversary every month either.

wouldnt that be awesome if i could celebrate my birthday once a month? well, i guess it wouldnt be anything great being as i only get one present each year and maybe a check for twenty dollars or something. i dont like birthdays. cindy, if youre reading this you know why i dont like my birthday and why i dont like you....

ill use this paragraph as a shout out to some lesser known bands who you might want to check out. these indy/underground bands are my only friends here in seventh period. i just go to purevolume.com and listen to them and sometimes catch myself talking to them as if they could hear me. wouldnt that be lame if i really did that? or if i didnt do that? amalgam, anberlin, plain white t's, copeland, postal service, mae, thetrackrecord, the spill canvas, the format, farewell madison, death cab for cutie. there are more, but this class is almost over and i hate being the last one out the door.

im always the last one out because im so slow. which is why im considering running track. today is the first practice and im scared to pieces because i havent ran competitively for the last two years. i guarantee ill be the slowest guy on the team. oh well. might as well do one sport this year. even if it is your sport's punishment.
