I Feel All Summery And Stuff.

I wish I lived in Glee.

That show is so ADDICTING. It's like a soap opera for teenagers. You sit there and you watch it and all you wanna do is lean closer to the television so that you might fall into their world and join in their swirling dramedy. It's all so perfect and structured, and you know every time it falls apart it'll fall back together, because if it STAYED apart, the fans would, of course, freak out and all kill themselves.

And let's not forget...the music. It's aaaall about the music. Even though I'm not sure if they had great voices and were THEN processed or if they're actually that awesome (unlikely), they always pick the songs that fit the moment PERFECTLY and they're always songs that make you sit up and scream melodramatically,

"I LOVE THIS SONG!"

Then you get on iTunes and spend all your money downloading it so you can blast it in your room and pretend you ARE a part of Glee, and yes...you ARE that awesome.
And yes...
Your life IS a musical and you CAN sing whenever you want to by yelling,
"BRAD! B-flat."
Yes.

Oh, don't we all wish we were more than just geeky teenagers watching Glee on the Internet over and over, salivating over each and every one of those perfect people singing our favorite songs much better than we ever could?

"BRAD!...He's always just...there."

^^^This song is WAAAAY overused. I've heard it remade twice, JUST tonight.

Adventurous Adventures Are Always Adventurous.

So, school is almost over. I feel very young saying that, especially since I'll be a sophomore next year. Starting high school...it's kinda like walking into a bar after you've just turned twenty-one (assuming you've followed the laws and not had any alcohol and are therefore the best son or daughter EVER). Then you look around and you see that guy that's been there since nine that morning, passed out on the floor...that couple that's eyeing each other across the room--a one-night-stand waiting to happen....that social drunk guy that always gets up in everybody's business and starts talking to strangers and will probably puke on your shoe sometime in the night...and all those teenagers with fake I.Ds dancing with their beers near the bar, head banging and not noticing when they spill beer down each other's shirts.
It's all very overwhelming.

Okay, so maybe it's not EXACTLY like that...

Anyway, you feel old and all grown-up and stuff when you start high school. That is, until you see anybody else besides your freshman buddies. Y'know? You're like...God, I can't even DRIVE yet. Except for that one chick that turned fifteen during the summer...lucky bitch.
And then you're a sophomore and you act all arrogant and try to control the "stupid freshman." Then suddenly you're a junior and then a senior and then they take a poker thingie and usher you out of the school like sheep (and cows, and pigs, and hippopatimuseseses), and you have to make it on your own and you become a poor college student.
Yaaay, freedom...

OKAY. We had an adventure in school today! This IS an adventure to me.
You all remember tornado drills, yes? Get in the hallway or locker room, duck and cover. Well, the sirens went off, and we were all grumbly and "Grr, I don't wanna sit on the concrete, it's only first hour and I'm tired."
Then, the principal guy says: "This is not a drill. Repeat, this is NOT a drill."
Oh my.
Freakout.
Well, all of us in the band hallway didn't freak out THAT much. We just put our heads against the wall and took it in stride. It was vaguely frightening when people started trekking in from the outdoors, absolutely SOAKED.
But we wasted twenty minutes of class in the hallway just chatting with our friends while ducking and covering and playing hand games after we were allowed to sit up. I guess we all figured, hey, we're in a concrete building and if we die, we'll be with friends.

Also, I found THIS scratched inside a bathroom stall today:
"Gatekeeper, the seasons wait for your nod,
Gatekeeper, you hold your breath and winter goes on and on."
I tried all day to figure out what it was.
I finally did.
It's a quote from a song by Feist, called Gatekeeper.
...Next to the quote, somebody else had scratched, "WTF???"

Song Quote Of Note: (See above).
Title: Gatekeeper.
Artist; Feist.
I have no idea what it means. But I like it.

I Promise, I Wasn't Kidnapped.

I know you all are terribly worried because I was gone for over a week, but the truth is, I am very busy and I use my free time to sleep.

Also, I'm lying.
It takes a shocking amount of effort to write a blog post, because, being a young blogger, I feel this excessive need to please people, and I my vocabulary is perhaps not ginormous enough to suit your needs.

DID YOU KNOW...ginormous has been added to the dictionary? This is NOT a lie. It's completely true and AWESOME. So, the next time somebody tells you, "Ginormous isn't a wooooord." Then you can say, "Bitch, it IS. Look it up. OHHH, WHAT NOW?!?! WEBSTER SCHOOLED YOU. IN THE FACE."
Say it just like that. They'll think you're cool.

Guess where I was on Saturday? A COLLEGE CAMPUS. Oh, yes. For State music contest, we went to the Mizzou campus. I won't describe the whole thing to you, because it may bore you, but it was GORGEOUS, and they have this giant chapel thing in the middle that just screams, "TAKE A PICTURE OF ME!!!" (I did). Then, out of nowhere, while my friends and I were walking to get food, our innocent eyes untainted by anything naked (except for me since I was mooned those two weeks ago...oh, how I was scarred...), some frat boys came running by wearing only...

Girls' underwear and sneakers.
Their hair was shaved so that only a little strip was left in the middle of their heads.
And their friends were driving next to them screaming and cheering them on.
There was also a rather...large...guy involved in all this running.
Remember that scene in Juno where she's talking about the guys while they run? Watch it. You'll understand...it was like that.

It was horrible and also AWESOME, but I don't know why. It was one of those things that makes you go..."Wow, college is going to be interesting."
It also makes you blush and giggle. Or, if you're like the girls standing about ten feet away from me, it makes you squeal and scream "I LOVE YOU!", causing one of the bolder boys to run over and hand her some piece of paper with what I think was an advertisement on it, and giving us a much closer view of some things you really don't wanna see when you're standing next to your boyfriend, or, really, when you're standing next to ANYBODY.

Run-on sentences For The Win.
