I'm Gonna Free Fall Out Into Nothing; I'm Gonna Leave This World For A While

Well well well, what a friday. good evenin' ladies and gents, and put your hats up and relax for a while, and take a short glance at my thoughts and feelings on the day in general. All english references aside, it was a pretty good day. The day started out pretty good. In spanish, we finished the dirty dancing movie. Melissa Milford was sooo funny because she was being well, Melissa. If you have class with her you know what i mean.

Then in Spooney we watched the movie we were suppossed to watch yesterday in her class, the one called 'Why Shakespearre'. Then she talked about our silhoutte (Oh my god i can't believe i spelled that right on the first try!) picture that is due after spring break, that apparrently none of her other classes are doing, isn't that nice. Us third period kids always get the short end of the stick.

Then in Gieger it was pretty fun trying to do a lab following the directions of an idiot. Instead of letting use our perfect procedure that i spent an hour and a half on yesterday in harriman, we switched up with someone else's procedure, and they were really underprepared. Oh Well.

Then in harriman, i decided i wanted to do some content, but i didn't want to do a tutorial. So i decided to just try to do so free form stuff. I started out with a few lens flares, and then did a liquify, and went from there. I produced 3 pages of content from that one idea, and even kim said they looked pretty good. Illbe sure to post them on monday when i go to her class.

Then i went to the meet at Lawnwood after school. The meet started with my event, the 4X800 meter relay, which is a relay with 4 guys who each run 2 laps around the track. We won, even though i did horrible. Then i ran again in the mile medley (4 guys, run a 200-200-400-800, i was the 800 leg) about 3 hours later (there was a rain delay), and i did pretty good. We had the lead when i got the baton, but with about a half a lap to go, Brian suarez passed me. I stayed with him up until the last 50 meters, when i hit the wall. But hes the top runner in the state, so i did pretty good considering.

then i did the 4X400 meter relay, and i ran pr (personal record) of 55 seconds flat. since it was the last event, i waited untill they announced the results, and it turned out we had won the whole meet. We went crazy, youd think we'd won the state meet. Then luc gave me a ride to my G-mas house, and here i am typing my blog on my G-mas slow dial-up computer. It took me 15 minutes to get to my posting page. Siiigh.

Ima wrap this up. Song today is Free Falling by Tom Pettey. Go to seeqpod and take a listen.
