I'm like a rookie paramedic to a siren

praying for an accident
["Doctor" - Cute Is What We Aim For]

Yesterday was the last day of school. I was calm during the day, but at carpool I broke down and started crying (Keeley didn't know what to do). During third period, Angela, Lynette, Shay, and I kept trying to sneak out without Walworth noticing. Eventually, we managed to skip, but by that point there were only a few minutes left of third period P.E. (I'd like to interrupt to add that I gave Caleb Bubbles my phone number during second period 'cos he's moving and I'd like to keep in touch with him.) During fourth period P.E., Austin was skipping his computer class, so he was hiding from the coaches by sitting curled up on that concrete floor between the top bleacher row and the wall. I sat by him and we talked a bit. Not much, but a bit.

Around that point, Laiken, Braxton, Brandon, and maybe Elliot began to tease Thompson for what he'd been caught doing in the computer classroom that I would rather not repeat. He began to get angry and starting yelling at them and then moved over to the other bleachers. I don't know if it was before or after this that the miniature fight between him and Brandon / Elliot began. It consisted of hitting, slapping, and yelling, and lasted less than three minutes. They continued to tease him even when he wasn't over there (this included counting to three and getting almost everyone in the group to yell, "THOMPSON!" in unison; I think Angela, Chris, and I were the only ones who didn't participate). So, he stomped over and screamed, "WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU FUCKING WANT?" or something to that degree. I forgot what happened after that. I don't think I was really paying attention. I think I was talking to Austin and Laiken and trying very hard to ignore Kalyn.

Fifth period went by and I got my report card (all A's and B's except for P.E., in which I had a D). Like I mentioned before, I started crying at carpool. Then I went home.

My mom and sister got into an argument and I think my sister is moving out. I was taken down to Marianna, Florida for my cousin Tyler's graduation (which lasted 'till eleven), which was not particularly what I had planned.

I've gotten addicted to a few different bands recently, also: Jack's Mannequin, Cute Is What We Aim For, The Maine, Mayday Parade, and The Academy Is...; I still need to check out Alkaline Trio, NeverSayNever, and Enter Shikari.

Amazing how much hell can happen on the last day of school. It's like kids have to make sure they get enough drama to last them until the end of summer. =/
