And that’s the way it is

I tried running for the first real time today. Not a lot of pain, but breathing seemed a bit off and I started cramping after about 16 minutes. I won’t record this run because it is just a pre-run to test out my shoes and make sure everything is intact. I saw a dude working game at Hilltop. I plan to do something similar Thursday if all works out right. That’s always exciting and awkward, but I also saw a dude smoking on the bball court. Not only is that illegal, but it is highly annoying.

This week went by rather slow. So many things must have happened because yesterday it did not feel like prom was only a week ago. I wore hats all week, which is look that kind of worked. Wearing Cubs stuff when the Padres played the Cubs on Monday did not work, but the Padres managed four straight 2-1 wins. Got my yearbook this week, but I’m not reading any comments until Thursday. I think I am going to get my first B ever. Not sure how I will handle that when it really happens.

Took the SATs in Escondido. Not as bad as I thought it would be. Although the school did give off two feelings. There must be a lot of clashes at this school between the tryers and dontgiveashits.

Yah for running tomorrow. I’m really excited about the east coast!

The sky turns the color of hot

My body is on fire, but my brain cannot seem to get firing on the subject of abstinence so I will try writing here a little to get something going.

I tried running again for the first time in 10 days yesterday and today I am paying for it. I was very happy with myself for fighting through the heat yesterday to pound out 60 minutes for BBC. According to MapMyRun, a lap around Hilltop is .26mi so I will take that to mean a quarter of a mile. However, I don’t know how many laps me and Brian did, but it felt nice. Today, I’m sore in all the places where muscles that I have not used in the past couple of weeks sit. Between running and putting burgers in between buns, I will give myself four hours of community service for the day.

Later, I learned one my friends’ prowess in making movies. In one of them, he acted as a Southern senator throwing some kind of tirade. I am anxiously awaiting seeing our remake of Cloverfield. It’s a movie that makes you want to keep watching, but the ending is rather abrupt and sad. But, perhaps that’s a good thing. I don’t like the gimmicky nature of their special features on the DVD. That’s just gay and faggish like the Disney people who hide the random disgusting stuff in Disney movies.

I received a few more compliments on my hair. Always exciting. Now what to do about this heat?

The sweat kept me away

After Wednesday’s pair of AP test, I felt as if I had just run a race so I ended up taking a shower. More on that later. My arms and legs were somehow sore from all that essay writing. Art history test writers are rather mean.

After I came out of the shower, my hair was really flat, which looked really cool. The next day I decided I would try out this new look and used some gel to keep the hair down. I received some positive reviews, but so many people thought I got a haircut.

It’s really hot right now so I am going to stay away.

Where’s snakeslayer when you need him?

There was a four-foot long snake on my driveway today as I attempted to pull into and park in my driveway. As it occupied my space, I feared crushing it with my tires so I waited in the middle of street with my foot pressing down on the brakes. I staked out my spot while it slowly and lackadaisically straddled the ground and inched itself toward some rocks and bushes. I finally arrived on my driveway, parked, grabbed my backpack and dashed for the front door. After deciding, bringing in the trash cans was too scary a task to undertake, I noticed our back door was open and that my grandma was working outside. I warned her to be careful because there was a snake in the vicinity of the house. She grew incredibly excited and demanded that see it. She jumped up from washing some pots and sprinted to the front of the house, but the snake had apparently sped up its crawl and was now out of site. She was sad. I was relieved, but I shall remain on the lookout and will request that snakeslayer remain on-call.

Desire for fame

The Bones episode today was all about getting fame. Kind of freaky. Maybe the events my friends overtook was part of their quest for notoriety. It definitely is human nature to inflate their ego. Even those that do not admit to doing do it by virtue of not doing it.
