Naps, French Fries, and The Backstreet Boys
All of those things have made me happier today. Not completely happy, because the day is just too crappy for that, but happier. I got home from school and decided that I would have a mental breakdown if I didn't take a nap. I was probably right, because I felt considerably better after that nap. The french fries were brought to me by my lovely parents. There's nothing like salty junk food to improve your outlook on life. As for the Backstreet Boys, well... That music always makes me happy.
If you haven't guessed, I've not had the best of days. I'm not completely sure what's wrong with me, but I'm going with stress. School has decided to be really nasty, dumping all sorts of tests and assignments on me. The assignments in Spanish class are especially pointless and redundant. I don't care if other people need them to understand the grammar and memorize the vocabulary. I got it the first time! I despise busy work... Spanish class was what pushed me over that cliff today. Yes, Sra. Maine, let's give the students 3 assignments, a test to study for, and.. oh? What's that? An essay in the near future? @#$%&*#! (That was my general thought process near the end of the day.)
After resisting the urge to curl up in a corner and cry, I went to knowledge bowl. I felt kind of bad for scaring my teammates. Apparently when I'm in a bad mood I actually look pretty frightening. Dens probably didn't deserve that glare which had the other fellows looking at me oddly. Michelle something other than cheerful and pleasant? Is it really possible? He shouldn't have stolen my purple pen. I am very attached to that pen.
Spring break... Spring break... Only two more days! That is the main thought keeping me going at this point. Just two more days, and I get a whole week to pointedly not fry my brains with studying. Only four more tests, and then no more until, umm... The vocab test in lang the day we go back. There is a two chapter Euro test tomorrow, along with the Ch. 10 stats test. The one happy thought with that is that I'm fairly confident I won't fail. For me in math, that's pretty impressive. Friday we have a spanish test (not horribly worried, but will probably still study), and another stats test. The second stats test will probably wipe out any positive effect the previous one has on my grade. Oh well. I'll live. Or go cry in the corner.
I'm probably being too melodramatic about all of this. After all, everyone has these days, right? I should just shut up and deal with it.

Hey, if you still feel crappy tomorrow we should have a "Numb" day together, for the times when we should be happy and it's silly for us not to be happy and everybody is happy for us, but we're just kind of rotting and pathetic? Let's do that. And then go out for ice cream afterwards. Or coffee. But neither of us really drink coffee. Tea, then. We'll have a "numb" day and then go out for Chai and bring our books (you bring Jane Austen and I'll bring Victor Hugo) and then we'll just sit and soak and Chai for awhile after our "numb" day.
Hug.

I'm sorry! Now that the awful day is over I'm feeling slightly better and considerably more exhausted.
It only now occurs to me that I may have wanted to kill about half the Human Geo class today because I only had three hours of sleep and unless you're one of about eight people, when I don't have sleep, I don't want to see you.

Haha! Yeah, sleep has a very strong corelation with one's ability to put up with the world. When I get tired, I become mean, bitter, and philosophical. Donny could tell you that ;P Hehe.

I'm still sorry about that, you know. I think I've done that to everybody. Let's see... Kara and Shelty? Have I gone on any midnight rants about the meaning of life/purpose of goals/definition of happiness to you guys ever? Or anything else, even?

Everyone deserves to have bad days, Michelle. That's why this song is so popular: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIcFgl6zf3A
I had one yesterday. Yesterday should have been an amazing day. Nothing due, Thrusday, I had to work, but that's about it. Oh no! It was a bad day. I woke up crabby, and stayted that way for much of the day. I managed to turn everything into something bad. A perfect score on my Anthro paper? "Ha! Everyone probably got a perfect score. Except the idiot sitting next to me. Geez, why does he keep looking at me weird. He shouldn't do that. Its because of my paper and test score. Stupid!@#$%^ A's..."
The guy sitting next to me is actually one of my good friends. I was just being evil. See Michelle? Bad days are normal. Go soak in Chai with Sara.
