today is my first day of school without melissa, who will be gone for nine days of school. i can already tell that i am going to be doing a LOT of homework for the next two weeks. hmph.

maybe dan bi will have pity and take me under her wing. she appears to be doing so already, since she's here in the senior room with me now.

yes, the senior room. the seniors, namely melissa and i, have taken the initiative to disregard the rule stating that no students are allowed in the room that used to serve as mrs. bray's (*sob*) office and have decided that the room should be used to accommodate the senior class. and miguel. and madison, of course, if she ever wants to chill.

mr. lee is probably going to start herding us into class in approximately 30 seconds.

today my beliefs have been confirmed. michael stewart really is one of the most irritating people inhabiting the planet at the moment. at this moment, he tops rush limbaugh, orlando bloom (because excessively good-looking people are kinda irritating, in a strictly jealousy-oriented sense), and the little voice in my head that reminds me when i have homework.
