Hi everyone, sorry for leaving you hanging w/ the last entry... I've been going straight from school to volunteer at an elementary after school homework/playground/etc. thing everyday until about 5:30 and then I've had lots of homework & general business...

So otherwise things are actually really really good! I talked to pretty much all of my friends on Monday and totally cleared everything up, and it's just been awesome lately. :))

Tomorrow we're going to this 80s Dance @ school, which hopefully will be pretty fun. I'm kinda excited about my outfit - it's pretty much 80s Madonna "Lucky Star" video -ish. I have black spandex leggings that go to just below my knees, a pouffy black tulle skirt, a white off the shoulder shirt with lace sleeves underneath a black tank top, black fingerless/lace gloves, a big white lace bow, tons of bracelets and necklaces, and big white hoop earrings. And I'm going to totally crimp out my hair... Love the 80s...

Anyway this elementary school thing has been so exhausting. It's kinda sad because it's basically for the kids who can't afford ESS, and they get so excited when I show up and argue over who gets to play with me and everything. And there's this one adorable little girl who I spent most of the time with who is so sweet, and when I was helping her with her homework the other day she was sitting on my lap and hugging me and she didn't come today so the lady in charge told me that she has a really tough family life and pretty much needs affection from other people... so sad. And there's this cute little boy who writes himself signs that say things like "I am dumb/retarded/etc." :(

This weekend is going to be insane. I have 2 major projects for school, tons of regular homework/studying, a few hours of community service on saturday, and I have to work for my dad's office and do Christmas shopping for my friends. Um! Plus I'm freaking exhausted and verging on freaking sick (But I don't get sick. I do not get sick!) which would not help. And Friday I'll be out late 'cause of the dance. I think I can handle it tho.

I should probably go get started on that homework... :)

'Cause you make the darkness seem so far
And when I'm lost you'll be my guide
I just turn around and you're by my side."
