He's just so...........COMPLICATED! I bet he doesn't even know who I am.... ok that's an exaggeration but still.
He can have any girl in our grade maybe even in the school; why the heck would he plan to ask ME out?
We'll see.... there's a dance coming. I'm not really a "go to the dance" kind of person; but still......
----------------------------------
that's great that you and ur bf are getting along well...and he's jerky friends are missing? that's good.

I can't stand it when people makes fun of me!!!
Today when we went to 2nd period and I was really tired so I put my head down and then when I put my head up my binder was missing. The bitches that were sitting beside me were laughing and it turned out they took it....
.....................................
Then when I was in science class; we were doing a project then I answered a question that the teacher asked and then this jerky guy sitting next to my group's table started making fun of my accent!
----------------------------------------
UGH! i hate it when people do that to me...... the funnest time I had all day was when I went to last period - GYM.
The girls and I were playing TRUTH OR DARE, then me and some girls were playing BASKETBALL, then we were passing the soccer ball from one side (girl's side) to the other side (boy's side) while some were playing basketball...............it was so fun.
----------------------------------------...
we also had a BENCHMARK MATH TEST in 1st period. It wasn't that hard but it wasn't that easy either.
----------------------------------------
Yesterday I had my 1st Scholar Bowl/Spelling Bee/Student Council meeting. It was really cool. Except before we were moved to a differrent class we were stuck in a class full of cheerleaders making up cheers and doing toe touches and splits.

But unlike what happened with you when I quitted no one was upset I think they were rather happy actually. So no one gave me a hard time about quitting except my parents.
....................
The guy I was talking about said hi to me; kind of. I was helping someone with math problems so I guess I didn't hear all I heard was my name. So the person sitting next to him told me that he was trying to say hi.
That's good right? Not that I care...
Actually he said "Hey Reggie, Sup?"

You don't happen to be a fan of HP by any chance, do you? ;)
And hey, if you're ever at the point in your writing that you would like to hire an editor to get your work ready to submit for publication, we should talk. I'm a freelance editor and I love working directly with authors. My website's on my profile page... just something to think about for the future. It seems we have a lot in common in our literary tastes :)

Today I signed up for Soccer. So now I have two tryouts; track and soccer.
I love Algebra Class! Like I said I was one of the Pirate Ghosts; so I can focus on my work since I sit away from all da ruckus. (MAth is my fave subject).
I met alot of people and I saw one of my friends from 5th grade; we're both trying out for track. I made alot of friends, too. So it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
And some of my new friends are book lovers too so I suggested they check out LT.

I just saw your comment from May about how we both have the Bloody Jack series on our lists. Sorry! I didn't even realize there was a comment feature. Anyway, yeah, I don't know anyone else who has read the series - I think they are great and definitely different from what's out there. I see you have the Harry Potter series listed as well - they are my favorite, though I haven't had time to see the new movie yet. Hopefully this week!

Welcome to LibraryThing! If you like Harry Potter, come on over to the Hogwart's Express group, you'll find plenty of friendly fans. We talk about many more things than HP.
Cheers,
