We stand alone, together..

“Nothing can stop me now…” Trent Reznor’s words describe my recent high. Though he goes on to say “…’cause I don’t care anymore,” that isn’t me. My week has been exciting! Where to begin?

MONDAY; the awful boring day, began an eventful week, and it is only wednesday. Monday I had the privilage of wandering around school, and not remembering one thing I said two days ago. After school on the other hand was just as boring. Weight lifting had me pumped though and my little sister made cookies so that was sweet! But, I dont remember anything else, harharhar.

TUESDAY, on the other hand, was super amazing. What a day! I woke up from a deep sleep, very rare, and went off to a kick ass day at school. Though first period is not too shazam, it never is, I remember the rest o fthe day like it was yesturday. Oh wait–it was yesturday.
School went by like it was cool then after school I didnt get to go to south street. Long story but to keep it short, I waited up for my project partner and told Kailey to go without me but, alas, partner had a meeting to go to. So I just went home. Katie G called me up to tell me she is home from her meeting (same one partner went to) and that it is time to get starbucks. She really wanted to drive me somewhere now that she has her liscence. None of her other friends are allowed to go with her, since she just got it, but my parents don’t care so it worked out amazingly! We had a chill time laughing about her blonde moments and potential date ideas, poetry reading is not a good idea, so we decided. I came home to read Huck Finn but fell asleep and woke up just in time for prayer meeting.
Here comes the good part.
Everyone took their time bundling into the Mccallum’s living room but as soon as we all got there, we left. Where would we go? This is the prayer spot! We just had to follow B, boy was that interesting.
We ended up at Riverwood, Rivendell, whatever it is called.
The front door was not open so B led us to the side and we circled up in the main hallway. As we prayed, I felt so badass. But not just that, I felt it was an awesome idea for B to start trying to do something so it wasn’t just the adults standing up for Xenos. Though others from our group thought Keith and Greg should handle it. I thought it was smart, especially since we prayed about it a lot. While Anele was praying about riverwood leaving us out, she said something that I thought was pretty poetic and honestly true: “We’re in this together; why not fight together?”
It was pretty kickass.
Well, we did not get asked why we were there like B had hoped. He tried talking to some lady but she didn’t know anything about Xenos, I guess.
It was still interesting.
Afterwards we went to, yesss, McDonald’s. We have fun. We know how to have fun.

WEDNESDAY, today, of course I was pumped after that! I didn’t go to see Donaldson in 1st period because i actually did homework, woahh. Second period I got a paper back with the words “too much writing, less work” on it… since when does a teacher tell Elli Morscher she worked too hard? It puzzled me.
But third period was epic! Hilariously epic!
Third period is Journalism/Stohion work time… if you could say that anyone actually does anything.
Well, I walked in and sat down being awesome and quiet. I remembered that Brandi probably wanted me to write her a note on the board. I try the dry erase board as usual but there were no markers. So to the chalkboard… Oh wait, theres no room. It was taken up by the word XENOS with a circle around it and crossed out. what a pleasant surprise! I wonder who in the world did it? Not really, I think i know..

You can see why I took a picture of it, it’s beautiful. I asked Donaldson if she saw the person who did it, she didnt. Steve noticed and he joked around about us worshiping the devil, so good to see he knows its all false. Oh, and I also wrote next to it: “we love you too!”

cause i ain’t lyin’
