Day 27 - Thursday
I just got off the phone with Taichi, I had to confirm that I'm not completely crazy. Apparently I am, but only according to him. TK was just being temperamental.
Music class was good today; we started our unit on Rock 'n Roll. Yutaka and I have been looking forward to this since Mr. Takenawa announced it halfway through last year. We're hoping Takashi will lose some of his reservations about it since we're supposed to learn to appreciate the music we're listening to. He still thinks classical music is a valid performance style so it'll be good to give him a little more exposure.
I had no particular desire to go home and be alone today. I would've preferred to do my homework with somebody rather than sitting by myself in my bedroom with only my music for company. I dislike how silent my apartment is when there's no one else in it but me. It's not really creepy since everything in it means 'home' but it is a bit lonely and it does feel kind of empty. Especially when I can hear the people in the apartments above and below us.
Unfortunately, today I had to be at home since TK was coming over at some point. So I turned my stereo up as loud as I felt I could get away with and tried to ignore the stillness.
I got rid of a fair chunk of homework this afternoon which means I won't have to spend all weekend doing physics. Taichi's so cruel making me go it alone. A right arse. He could've TOLD me he was switching, but no. He decided it'd be much more fun to leave me behind. So much for best friends. I'll have to kick that one out the door.
Since thee shalt not suffer with thy loved ones, Taichi Yamagi. I declare thee a coward. To the gallows with thee...or some such appropriate punishment.
Which reminds me, I'm dreading the moment Taichi actually decides what we're going to be doing for our history project. I just know he's going to try and tell me about every little detail and try to get me as enthusiastic as he is. I don't know how he manages to get excited about that kind of thing. It usually involves a bunch of dead people. But I guess Taichi is always leaping from one thing to the next and applies the same amount of enthusiasm to everything he does. He's like the lightning ball that doesn't run out or an Energizer battery or something. Probably more an Energizer battery since he does eventually collapse.
I got some new photo's from Kari today; a whole lot from last soccer season. She's managed to get some fantastic ones of Taichi with that camera that takes four pictures in quick succession. There was one set that I absolutely had to pin to my notice board because of the emotion that crosses Taichi's face over the four shots. They're of him juggling a soccer ball and you couldn't find a more incredible...it's like...well...
Talk about a visual sending out killer emotions. I think I'm going to have to sit down and try and figure out what it is I'm seeing. Taichi has a lot of expressions but I've never seen him look so open. Kari always manages make the simplest things seem so beautiful just by the way she captures them.
I have a feeling sleep is going to be difficult tonight so I think I might go and pester dad. I can hear him out in the kitchen and it sounds like he's trying to cook something. That could be dangerous. I'd better go and intervene. Last time he tried to bake something he bent one of our biscuit trays so it would fit in the oven.
