Today I went shopping with Kyle in BAM and Target. After we were done, we went to Burger King and made a meal. It's good that such simple plans can make a day so great.

After lunch, we were sitting in the parking lot in Kyle's car and we called one of our friends on speakerphone to come to the mall with us. She put up a strong fight on the grounds that she couldn't drive without her wallet and that she couldn't ride with us because her dad doesn't like her riding with teenagers, and especially not boys. Our various arguments included nonsense such as "2012 starts tomorrow, so we have to do it today," or, "We got you a Burger King crown! JUST FOR YOU!" Eventually we gave up.

After half a minute of silence, Kyle said, "So now we gotta call somebody to come to the mall with us."

"No we don't!"

"We don't? I mean, if you wan-"

"Remember, we only wanted to go to the mall so we'd have something to do with Kierra. If she's not coming then we don't have any reason to go."

Kyle was opening his mouth to answer when his crotch said, "Awwwww!" very loudly. We both yelped and he about dropped his drink. His phone never hung up, so she'd been sitting there on the phone listening to us the whole time.

"What? What? What's wrong?"

"WE THOUGHT WE HUNG UP ON YOU!"

Also, I changed my profile picture on facebook to a butterfree for Pokemon Month. I have a universe twin who was conceived on or the day after my birthday. I will see my pseudo cousin in a week or so. Brown wants me to talk about the best piece of advice I've ever given to somebody. I know somebody who bought a Zune HD (whoa). I feel like a character stuck in a dramatic plotline. After telling my mom that I was willing to wait on the Zune HD until some more games came out on it, I found a website with a ton of third party games and apps.

Mixed bag.

Does the adverb "royally" ever describe any positive nouns, in this day and age? No? OK, then. I think I can leave it at that, and let your imagination take hold. That's right. Whatever you're thinking, it's probably what I mean. Within reason.

The main problem with me, other than my "fail at life" status, is thus: I am extremely good at pretending that I am happy. Pretending that nothing's wrong with me. I complain about the little things and smile with my voice and body, and it throws people off. I've become so good at it, and done it so consistently throughout my life, that I do it subconsciously now. I'm so good I can fool myself. In fact, the idea of me crying is almost beyond imagination, even to me, so I never do. That's the extent of my double thinking prowess. I'm that good. Nobody can make me cry.

Not my mom.

Not that girl.

Not all the woe and misery that my close friends share with me.

Just me. That's how much I suck.

It's not like I'm sad that the world is conspiring against me or anything. It's just a deep horror when I realize who I am. So, every now and then my unimaginable suckiness creeps up on me. And tonight was especially bad because it appears to have some real world consequences and not just local ones. And I was driving to get Sean from his girlfriend's house, and a song came on, and it was just one of those things where you dwell on sadness and then all of a sudden it's all around you, and you can't see through your tears, and driving becomes very dangerous.

-sigh-

So yeah. "You deserve a nice girl," she said. This is why I call bullshit. Not to offend, but you don't know me well enough to make such grand statements. Unless you were just paying me a casual compliment, in which case I say go ahead. I like when people are nice. It's nice.

I hate when I do this. I forget to post for over a month and then I have all these COOL and/or TERRIBLE things to share but there's so much that I don't know what should get precedence whatever shall I do?!

...and unfortunately now isn't the time to remedy that. I'm trying to be responsible and finish (or mostly finish) my homework before I head off for Bible Talk. Gotta be responsible, ya hear?

So in the meantime...here's a not-actually-random scripture:

"Don�t be selfish; don�t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don�t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had." Philippians 2:3-5

See ya around

So tonight was the "pageant" to find Mr. Northwestern at my highschool. I was a contestant.

First off, I did not win. And that's OK because, frankly, I didn't expect to.

For my talent, I danced the scene from Napoleon Dynamite. Or at least the first 90 seconds. So that was fun.

Actually it was a LOT of fun. I must be an attention seeker. Just look at this blog. Anyway, I hammed it up like crazy. Best Napoleon impression ever, I think. Oh yes.

I'm OK, everybody. AS FAR AS YOU KNOW.

No seriously I am. Thanks and all. You're great.

I'm listening to the Lion King soundtrack...again.

I was gonna say something else but I forget.
