senior year thus far

IS A PARTY



Not for long, of course. Soon, I'll actually have to get cracking on SATs and those goddamn college apps and go through that infamous first semester senior yeardom.

but as of now, I am enjoying every carefree minute of it.

Meanwhile, my mother and I have been making plans to go to Korea over Christmas break. I blanched at the thought of Korea for a while now, after it ruined my life the summer before my sophomore year, but I've never been in Korea when it was snowy and beautiful so I am indescribably excited.

I've also found that my family's slight economic situation has driven me to be almost unhealthily conscious of where my money goes. I know it's natural to do so, especially since most seniors are graced with five classes and it is too easy to grab a lunch at Burger King or Frutti Gelato after school. So not only am I gaining weight profusely but I am also spending like noneother. Anyways, I've found this inevitable stinginess to be a bit troublesome since it's also a burden to my friends when deciding what and where to eat; it's tough eating out on a budget. Hence, we've been stuck with oily fries and onion rings from Burger King as a regular lunch menu. And there lies that inexplicable catch-22. but not really.

It also makes me so sad to think of how my musical tastes have changed over the years. It's also very shocking because I tend to stick obstinately to my likes and dislikes but I've started being more lenient on the different kinds of music I listen to. For instance, four years ago, I NEVER would have downloaded a song like "Baby, one more time" by a Korean GIRL band. Mind blowing.

Anyhow, after saving the world from further destruction by choosing to walk and bike over slack off in an air conditioned car, I feel utterly repulsive inside and out. This is where I leave you.

On a side note,
two words: Sarah Palin?!

-Peace!
