Settle down, it's never what you think

  • Mm. Today was a good day, for no reason. I was just in a stellar mood. I began the day by getting a smoothie with my friend. Then I got the rest of my grades for my progress report: all A's with one B and one C (the last of which is easy to bring up to an A.) Then drama club...idk, it's usually fun, but it's so poorly run that it's very aggravating. But I just goofed off with my friends whenever possible. I sat in my buddy's lap and he kept biting my knuckles and hugging me around my waist. (I love that kid, he's like my little brother, just bigger than me, hahah.) And my best friend and I sang a lovely melody of Avenue Q songs...then we went and got a smoothie after drama club, hahah. But man. History, I sit next to my crush? Yeah, today the teacher had us do a worksheet in pairs - by who you sat next to. So we pushed our desks together; i.e., i was very close to him. Our "thing", if you will, is that we're constantly arguing and making snide remarks - very high school flirtation, I know. But he actually said some really cute things, too. The worksheet was easy and we had a ton of time, so we messed around a little. His eyes are really dark, and he has really long eyelashes, and really strong bones in his face, and his complexion...idk, I've heard the adjective "swarthy", and that seems to fit him. Oh dear. He is quite attractive. He would lean over my desk to read the worksheet (as it was on my desk) and our shoulders would touch and he wouldn't move to make them "un-touch". And our knees would meet under the desks and neither of us would move. Whenever I laughed, he did, and one time I giggled and put my hands over my face (this weird habit I have), and when I looked up he was looking at me with the cutest smile... Man. I sound like such a blathering teenage girl. Hahah. Oh, well. But in a way, this is nice. I feel like I'm kind of finally having the "teenage" experience. I'm kind of dabbling with different guys, making new friends, hanging out a lot, driving around, drinking, smoking, going to concerts and parties, etc. I finally feel like I'm actually having fun instead of having this ho-hum existence of work/school/family. I am enjoying this.
