I'm on the phone with Tina… Boris dumped her.
It was so sudden!!!!! That, and they were MADE FOR EACH OTHER! Tina totally supported his Joshua Bell obsession, and he was the hopeless romantic guy she always hoped for. This is a conspiracy, I tell ya! And as Tina has told me countless times, I told her that everything would be okay. I mean, look at all the movies where the girl loses the guy, just to get someone better-
You've Got Mail- Kathleen Kelly belonged with Joe Fox, even though they had rival book companies… she just had to lose the typewriter guy to realize it!
Bring It On- Okay, I hate cheerleaders, but WHO DOESN'T love this movie? And Torrance just had to forget the male cheerleader and get with the brother who made her that adorable mixed tape. We should all be so lucky.
Sleepless in Seattle- Hmm… crazy lady or Meg Ryan? Is it even a question?
Legally Blonde- That Warner guy wasn't even hot. But she had to have her heart broken to realize that he wasn't worth it! Plus, in the process she learned the law. And she met Emmett!!!
French Kiss- Even though she gets lost—
Wait- I asked her if he said why, and all she could tell me (or that I could understand) was that she just wasn't "It" for him. Stupid Boris…I knew when he went and got all hot this summer something was going to happen. WHY ARE PEOPLE SO SUPERFICIAL THESE DAYS? Honestly! Poor, poor Tiny. She especially didn't deserve this. Monday in school is just going to be horrible. Good thing she has tomorrow to recuperate beforehand. I asked her if she told Lilly, and she said that everyone knows- Lilly, Shameeka, Ling-Su, Perin, everyone. In fact, Tina said that I was the last one she called.
We just hung up. I need Michael right now. I want him to come over, see that I'm upset, and hold me really close and shout to the world that he would do anything to see my doe eyes shine again. Then he'd go over to Tina's apartment and ask her why I was last.
Ugh, my mom's phone is ringing. She's gonna wake Rocky up from his afternoon nap if she's not careful. Why can't she just learn that keeping her phone on vibrate is just as good? Wait- what's Natasha Bedingfield singing… THAT'S MY PHONE!!!
Well. I just got off the phone with Michael. They gave him the opportunity to go to Japan Wednesday so that when he gets there he can adjust to Japanese life and go to college there for a while. Of course he accepted it. It didn't even occur to him that his GIRLFRIEND might miss him or anything… no, of course not. How can he do this to me?!?!?! That's months earlier than he planned to go, which takes away so much time for us to make up and… well, he already gave his Precious Gift to Judith Gershner and her cloned fruit flies, but maybe…??? Oh, God, I've been spending too much time around Lana Weinberger if I'm even CONSIDERING this.
OKAY. MOVING ON.
You know, I finally mastered Geometry and Algebra and now they stick me in Algebra 2.
I don't care about solving the system!
Solve the following system:
x + y + z 4
x - 2y - z 1
2x - y - 2z -1
How do I do this?? And WHY SHOULD I WANT TO KNOW???? I really need to not write my Algebra 2 notes in my journal like I did in Algebra 1.
Wow. I just checked the clock, and I've been writing for almost an hour. And WHY don't I have a book deal?????? I could totally write my memoir on Grandmére AND work for Greenpeace, then write another memoir on that! Hey, everyone else is writing one, why can't I? Ugh. My phone's ringing again. GREAT.
