School Prom @ MindSay

What's happenin? Long Time No See...

For real, things is crazy now that I done grown up and gotten older. Next year I'll be a junior, and I'll be in marketing. Being a junior means good things and bad things for me. One, that means that I'll have only two years to make it to states for track or cross-country. Good things, I'll gradutate in a year, so no problems!! I just have to find a suitable college to go to and I have to take my tests to get into a good school. Right now I'm writing from my cousin's house in Buffalo, NY, where she has DSL, (it works really fast lol), but I'm visiting only for a day or two, then back to Ohio where I have to take finals, before I leave school. School ends on June 1, 2006 !!! My sister graduates on May 31, coincidentially, her birthday ( I know I spelled it wrong), but her prom was on friday, and we went to lineup:

LINEUP (LIE-nup)- the tradition of showing up a few hours before prom so the rest of the school can see what you and your date are wearing, and what car you are driving, at a neutral location, not the location of prom.

She looked good, even though I didn't see her that much there, she left early so she would make it to prom on time. See, at least someone understands the importance of making prom on time, she doesn't run on CPT (lol). But I'm having a really good time listening to Sean Paul feat. Sasha- I'm Still In Love With You, I'll see you all around,

peace,

Prom

Prom wasn't too bad. At first I didn't want to go...I kept changing my mind because I felt like it was going to be horrible. Then Matt tried to plan everything out. Him and my mom came up with the idea that Adam and I were going to sit on the T-tops of the transam. I have to admit it wasn't that bad of an idea.

First we went around taking pictures of me in my prom dress and him in his tux. He looked good....lol after that we left the house around 7:45...we were going to leave around 7:30 but we didn't make it....we went to KFC and Kim took pictures and I got to see Karra!:) after that Matt came in and wanted to take some pictures of me with Charles Sanders...haha..it was crazy.

Then we went to the street where everyone was pulling up to the prom. It took forever. These guys came up behind us and started to rev their engine up...so with Adam and I in place on the T-tops Matt started to rev ours up. As we went down the street he kept squeeling the tires out. Finally we got to the end of the walk in and jumped off. (Matt and Mom and my brother on the other hand got arrested lol for reving their engine up. Or they just got pulled over haha....and they took pics of the cop car.)

Adam and I went through walk in and waited for Heather and Amber...by the time they got there it was about 9 lol and prom started at 8. After that we went inside and waited for pictures which didn't take that long....lol

After that we danced once and that was to that stupid Kelly Clarkson song..haha we just noticed it this morning ...so crazy...

I went home and fell to sleep after that. lol....and the story goes on....

Sunday

I went driving with my Grandma Kathy..I did pretty good. Until I was home and had to pull out of the drive way- no i did that part good...but it was pulling back in... I couldn't get the wheel straightened fast enough because I had turned it too far already. So, really it wasn't my fault....

Today

I'm tired and I have to work from 4-8....besides that my brother was an ass this morning. I woke up around 6:30 because I'm too lazy to get up before that. My brother was banging on my door telling me what time it was like I really cared....after that I got up and took a shower and was still running late because I had to change clothes- since my gma washed em and I had none clean...well I still had my make up and teeth and hair to do after that....my brother was pist because he wanted to leave for school by 7 which was b/s. I was out there by 7:10 because thats the time we have to be ready....and I did more then just my hair teeth and make up- i had to get prepared for school lol by grabbing my lip gloss sun glasses and everything else I felt like I needed.

Then I got out there and my brother wanted to stop somewhere for batteries. My grandma stopped at the nearest gas station by the school and my sister told me he was doing it on purpose...to make me late. So, I changed that and I started to walk...and finished it too.

Ugh our stupid preppy lover for a teacher is making us do some rediculas work. I really don't like her....You should have seen her at prom dancing with this guy. Yea....she flirts with those boys all the time and she doesn't pay any attention to the rest of the class. Which is un called for.

Alright, I know i don't write in my blog all that much so when i do i will try and make it a memerable experience for all of you guys who care enough to read it. *in a sarcastic voice*=> "I can't find the way to express myself with words, i'll write a blog so people i don't know will read it and tell me how cool i am."

Ok, so on my agenda for this evening is Prom, alright, where to start.  Uh, dances are really a toss up for me i guess.  If you are to have a good time at a Formal dance in high school one needs to ask the right person.  If you end up going with someone you don't really like then a good time is impossible to have.  I always seem to go into dances with the idea that i am not going to have a good time.  I guess this is just who i am, but i am trying to go into Prom with an Optimistic point of view.  I am going with one of my best friends and i hope we are going to have a great time.  Which brings me to my criticism on the Whole Prom Deal... Ehem...

Asking?  Now asking a girl to prom is something that has gone down in the ages as a task that means a lot.  Today however i feel that asking a girl to Prom in a thoughtful and big way is expected, and if you don't, i'm sorry to say guys but you will get shut down.  It seems to me that girls today need to feel appreciated enough to get asked with plastic cups across the bridge on the way to school or a humongous creation of wood that says "PROM" with a bright light shining on it in front of her house.  The best one though i have heard is definately a blend of creativity, uniqueness and humor.  The guy made a trail of rose petals from the front door of the girls house to the bathroom and on the toilet there was a sign that said "If you're going to go, why not go with me?" Pure Genious.  Now i don't see why a guy just can't ask a girl "Hey, you want to go to prom with me."  Even if the guys know the answer they are still going to get nervous, trying to think of a cute and big way with butterflies in your stomach is a very difficult task.  I think it puts a lot of unneeded stress on the boys.  Now that it is expected to get asked in a big way girls do not appreciate the hard work and dedication as much, and i quote Ray Kurzweil in The Age of Spiritual Machines "Take death for example.
A great deal of our effort goes into avoiding it.
We make extraordinary efforts to delay it and often consider
its intrusion a tragic event.
Yet we'd find it hard to live without it.
Death gives meaning to our lives. It
gives importance and value to time.
Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.
If death were indefinitely put off, the human psyche would end
up, well, like the gambler in the 'Twilight Zone' episode."
Now this is much like asking a girl in a big way, now that it happens all of the time it becomes unnapreciated and much like time it is no longer important.

And i know a lot of guys who are expecting to "Get Some" on prom night.  They always ask me "Tony, Do you think i am going to get some."  You know what my answer is? Hell No!!! Not with an attitude like that you wont, and unless the girl you are going with is a slut, or is you're girlfriend and you are sexually active and there is something wrong there anyways. You're Freakin 17!!!! WTF  IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!!  At first i thought they were joking so i played along, but they have asked me multiple times so i now understand that some guys are huge retarted horn balls.  But hey they are my friends and i'll be honest with them. 

I'm just going to go out and have a great time with some of my friends and have a great dance experience with one of my best friends...You're Awesome Amy!!!

I'll give you another blog in a few days when i find something else to complain to you people about...

Till then,

Tony

Ok, at my school, a few of my friends and I are in a group that we call ourselves, "Tranny's". We are all trying to get all of us Tranny's to the prom this year, but at least 1 isn't going. Me, i'm not goin because my freakin' mom won't let me come. Grrr....mommy!!!

But the happiness part of this blog, is that I GET TO SEE JOEY TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!! 22 HOURS!!! YEA!!!!! YEA MAN! WAHOO!!!!! Ok, I won't use capital letters anymore. And no, Madeline, Crystal, and everybody else....IT WASN'T A DATE!!!!! Well I can't wait till tomorrow night so yea. Talk to everybody later.

Well nothing much has been going on, went to a party the other night a go absolutely smashed off my face. I was great fun and i got to see all my friends again ^_^ Its going to suck when i go off to Tafe next year.

We played a drinking game, that was absolutely hilarious. You put cards face down in a circle with a glass in the middle and Aaron, who was showing us how to play it, had a piece of paper with the cards and thir corrosponding instructions. Then people in turn flip up cards and do what that instruction says. It was hilarious when the whole group wasn't allowed to say the words 'and' and 'the' and Aaron was speaking like a steriotype Auzzie, kinda like Steve Irwin. Phil, the gay, kept biting me on the arm and i swear Scott almost broke my wrist. But it was all in good fun. Aaron is hilarious. XD Can't wait until Luke uploads the vids of Aaron prancing around the backyard and doing the laulchicken.

In other news my school formal/prom/whatever you wanna call it is on tomorrow night and i am almost dreading it. I wasn't planning of wearing makeup of any kind, because i hate it, but i now have a couple of pimples. *cry* and i dont think i've got the right kind of make up to match my skin tone here. I might have to con mum to go shopping in the morning to get me some simple cover up makeup.

Other from that, it should be a nice night.
