I had the most amazing weekend (plus Thursday and Friday) of my life. I wish I could describe it here, but I really can't. It was just incredible. I cried at the end. A lot. And people cried with me. And it was nice. I'm just so sad it's over. I must say, it was pretty outstanding. O-U-T, S-T-A-N-D, I-N-G, OUT OUT OUTSTANDING! That was one of the cheers we had. If anyone ever said the word outstanding, you had to get up and clap and do that cheer. There were a lot of other cheer type things too. All fun. Yesterday was Hampden Academy's talent show, which I judged because of being on student council...I thought it went fairly well. Animal Suit Driveby won, of course, The Spring Escape came in second, and Lily & Monykah got third. The show started at 6, so between the endof school and when i was supposed to get there, I had to find stuff to do. First I went to talk to Ms. Scofield about my research paper, and that took about an hour. Then I walked to the old gym, because I figured I'd either find someone or find my soccer ball...found Kimble instead. Well kind of. I found Molly & Isabel first, then Kimble came in. She was supposed to go to Annie's, but she left without her, so whatev. We ended up storming the FTC and discovering a computer with AIM, and hopped on that. Then we went to Fresh Ginger for dinner (mmmmm, chicken egg foo yung), and ended up being late to the show (sc's supposed to be there at 5, we got there around 5:30), but no one really cared. I sold candy, tried to barter my hands around a Spring Escape shirt, and eventually sat at the judge's table next to Bryan. Sam called around the 6th act (there were 12 acts total) and said his mom was bringing him, which made me feel good because he was willing to ride half an hour just to see HA's talent show. He wore a cowboy hat...haha. Kimble got the best fortune from a fortune cookie ever. It said..."Once you learn to be flexible, your life will greatly improve...in bed. Well it didn't really say in bed, but that's what you add to the end of every fortune cookie's fortune. Anywa, after the talent show, I drove home and Sam came and we watched The Simpsons and then he left, and I went bed. Today I had a breakdown after school and that's all the details on that.
