Disclaimer: I still don't own Inu-Yasha, so I don't see the point in
writing this, but I always do. Whatever. Oh, and I'm SO SRY about the 2
month wait, but I never had the time to update.
Chapter 8
Life isn't easy; that's a fact, but when it comes down to it, you can make the best of what you have, or you can stress over life and freak out until you're suicidal. I know things aren't going well with anything in my life, but I don't worry about any of it. People talk about the 'secret of life'; the way to true happiness, but all I need are good friends who stick by me. Whatever happens, I know who I can trust.
Sango continued writing her dreadfully long essay on 'What keeps you content with life,' though she didn't see the point in the assignment anyway. Everyone was working on similar essays at 1:00 AM, bored out of their minds; just like Sango. Everyone, including Kagome and Miroku, but Inu-Yasha was too lazy and casual about the assignment to put any work into it. He scribbled some junk about happiness and love on his paper two minutes before leaving for school, and prayed it wouldn't affect his grade. Sadly for everyone except for Inu-Yasha, the teacher didn't really expect a long essay! He just wanted to make them think of what made them happy so they could be excited for spirit week. The whole assignment just was a pep talk without the talk. Inu-Yasha was the only one who left the classroom with a smile on his face.
The annual spirit week festivities started in 3 short days (after the weekend). Almost everybody was enthusiastic about them, especially Kagome and Sango. They couldn't wait for some relaxation from their hectic school life, i.e. less homework, the spirit week dance, fun activities, 'close' time with their boyfriends. Another simple reason to love spirit week is that it signaled the end of the third quarter, meaning there were only 2 months left of school. The boys, on the other hand, were extremely nonchalant. They just didn't want as much homework. Either way, spirit week was a good thing for everyone. For the next three days, the girls talked about nothing besides what to wear to the dance or how fun the festivities were going to be (festivities meaning the school 'carnival' being set up in the field), you know, typical girl stuff. Over the weekend, the gang went shopping (it was the boys' job to hold all the bags), and bought tons of stuff, even stuff they didn't need for spirit week, let alone regular life.

The spring breeze caressed Kagome's skin, carrying with it the sweet, succulent aroma of the barbeque being prepared for the school's lunch. She was psyched about the first day of spirit week. Can you blame her? After all, she has been waiting for it since the start of high school! She bought some ice cream for Inu-Yasha and the gang. She was so happy about the carnival that she actually bought everybody lunch and a trip to the fortune- teller's, until something (or someone) ruined her afternoon.
A/N: I know, sucky place stop, but I want to know what you want them to do during spirit week (hint-hint: review!) I hope the cliffhanger isn't too bad. so... I still am really sry about the whole too-busy-to-update-thing. Um, read my other stories, review, and uh, don't flame- I'm emotionally unstable. I think that's it, so bai~ *Sarah*
