ok, so the weekend of my birthday was a succes and guess what my boyfriend gave me........ you'll never guess......... alright, enough suspense: he gave me an iPod Touch......... O_o needless to say, i was SHOCKED. and so was all my friends when i told them. I just kinda stared at it, then at him, then back at it, then back at him. He was looking all sheepish and said, "i hope you like it...". my response was this: "holy... you're crazy... I LOVE YOU, YOU CRAZY MAN!!!" and then he got the well deserved hugs and kisses i had for him. This suprise just took the cake.....

The weekend that followed was my school's homecoming, which was tons of fun, despite being a Harry Potter theme. The week after that was my bf's school's homecoming (themed safari/jungle), which also was tons of fun. At mine, i hung out with all my friends, and at his, i met all of his friends and reconnected with a good one of mine. It was a blast!

And then this past week hit like a bullet to the stomach... and leg... and arm... and face... and chest... I've been way lacking on sleep due to SOOOO much homework (aka: getting to bed around 1:00 am and up at 6:00 am). I've been dealing with the stress from band - the state competition is this weekend, practices are intense and cold, we JUST replaced the heads on the battery's drums and have already broken two, my co-section-leader broke the pit's base drum last night, i didn't get one of the cool laminated locker signs for state (petty i know... i stole an underclassman's off their locker...), and i'm under the pressure of handling the pit in general. My bf won't do his homework cause he's lazy (i'm OCD; i can't not to my homework...) so his dad threatened to take away his phone, his privaledge of joining me at the dinner theater friday, his privaledge to come to band day (state), and his privaledge to see me in general. I don't want to swim anymore, and not because i don't want to work, i just hate the time it takes from me. I just have no time anymore for the things i need like practicing my clarinet, sleeping, doing homework, and having time to be myself. I'm crying constantly, like some fancy fountain in an european city square. It's so annoying! I have so many good things in my life, like my bf, my family, my school, my band, my best friends, and the air in my lungs. Why then do i feel like i do?

Signing off, confused and annoyed...
