It's late at night and...

I got some random thoughts again. First, I just wanted to say wow. AP Testing is finally over! It ended like a day ago but I used the other time to just freaking relax and not try in school haha. AP testing day was definitely one of the longest days of my life. I dont think I've ever done anything in a day that amounts to 8 hours of sitting, 200 multiple choice questions, and 12 essays. It was pretty funny how the APEL and AP Art Test landed on the same day, since so many people were taking both courses. Also, the fact that all 4 periods, about 91 people, of the AP Art classes were shoved into one classroom. Anyways, everyone was so happy once all the tests were over. Go everyone! Now, its just time to finish everything else in the other classes, gotta finish strong, and once thats done, I'll be a Senior...

Now its pretty early in the morning, about 630. Last night was Westviews Prom, "A Walk on the Wild Side..." at Petco Park. Thank you Felice for taking me as your date! Hm so where should I start..Well the day started out with the usual new haircut, pickup things like clothes, corsage, etc. Once ready, everyone met at Candies House, then Westview to take pictures. Back at Candies, our "bus" picked us up haha. Since our bus was owned by Deja Vu, some strip club company, there were other similar company names along the top of the bus. On the back, there was a picture of a half naked girl, with the words "Follow Me..." near her mouth. And on both sides, there were pictures of lifesize people looking into the windows of the bus. Haha I honestly think it was kind of funny how we ended up with the bus. One of Candies neighbors was outside, with the most pleasant smile looking at the bus haha. Dinner was at Tom Ham's Lighthouse. The food was pretty good, I had Tropical Isle Chicken. The wait for the food took quite a while, and the menu was pretty pricy, most items were $20+. The service was pretty good though, I swear I had my water glass refilled like after every time I took a sip haha. Now it's time for the dance. The whole layout was pretty cool, the dance was on the rooftop balconies, and on the floor under that was a "casino" like place and they had a bunch of pretty good snacks. The DJ in my opinion was aiiight. And the dance flooor was like way too small, there was barely any room to really dance, and as my friend put it, it really just looked like a giant "humpfest". But it was fun overall for sure. The DJ though, had to diss Mt. Carmel a couple times; "Y'all party harder than folks at Mt. Carmel" "Man, alla ya'll dance better than Mt. Carmel". Like what the? haha whatever, I know it was another schools prom but yeah you know what Im saying. Being a Mt. Carmel-ian, of course I'd think that was wack haha. So after the dance, pretty much just went to Candies, Alvaros, then peaced out. Pretty fun day, hot as hell though...

There's been a lot that has been running through my mind, so maybe if I spill some of my brains here, there'll be more room for other things!

The majority of my thoughts, and unfortunately my stress, comes from school. I swear, everything couldn't have picked any other time of the year to bother me haha. For one thing, both my AP tests are on the same day. That means I'll be writing about 12....yes 12 essays, 3 for APEL and about 9 for AP Art. Another thing that scares me is my first SAT this Saturday. Im surprised I haven't really taken the time to really review for it. Theres not much I can do in the next 4 days to significantly change how I do, so I'll willingly accept how I do. Finals are coming up too, but one good thing I can say is Junior Paper is over! I can't wait for this school year to be over, but in another sense I wish it wouldn't end because so many people I look up to are leaving, and I can't wrap my head around that I'm almost a senior....

Another thing thats been on my mind is what I wanna major in, or just do in the future. Architecture and Engineering seem so interesting, itll probably be the path I take. AP Art and for those of you who know him, Mr. Currie, his Dream Home/Building project probably influenced me the most. Lately though, the thought of doing something with music keeps coming back to me. I think it would be soo sick, to work in a studio, make music, make beats, record people, and just play music. Since music is like my first love, I don't think I'd ever get tired of it. Band, this year especially, has allowed my passion for music to grow. I also remember going to Studio West (not the dance place) for my Career Day in 8th Grade. It was pretty cool, cause Blink-182 has recorded there! and so has Get Back Loretta, which is a pretty cool thing I would say. Basically, we learned how to record a band, work some of the equipment, and we even got to be on a track the workers there made! I played some percussion instrument, like, a shaker or something haha. That still would be so dope though, be like the Neptunes or something haha I wish.. Well I'll leave things there for now. till then...
