UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH. It has been SUCH a not good week. I failed a french quiz. I failed a history quiz. I failed a math hw quiz. Most importantly, the fire alarm went off during my chem test so I came nowhere NEAR to finishing. I got a new retainer because I lost the old one and found out from my parents that I’ll be paying for half of it- which’ll ring up to be about $300. Holy shit. Where the hell do they think I’m going to get that kind of money from, unless I go into drug dealing? Or maybe the whole point was to push me into drug dealing? I’ve heard about parents who buy weed from their kids or sell it to their kids’ friends. Maybe my parents are like that and I don’t even know it. Hmm. That’s something to keep in mind.

This week, as I said, was not a good week. And today was overall not a good day. It did have good parts though. I got a 95 on the math test I took last week!!! I know, I know. Too cool, right? That brings my test average this term up to a solid 90. Sweet. Let’s see. What else was good about today? I went on IM for the first time in months. It rained and I feel like the whole world is new again. I made banana chocolate chip muffins for the second time this week. Someone held the door for me at school. My cold finally went away. It’s funny. Even when I have a really shitty day and there’s so much to be mad about, there’s so much good stuff it’s hard not to be so happy you just float away sometimes. Right now I feel like a helium balloon. I like helium. Do you like helium? Oh dear. Now I’m just babbling. Oh dear. I must be even more tired than I thought I was. And I knew I was fairly tired because I got an average of 5 hours of sleep a night this week as I studied for tests and quizzes I was doomed to fail. Alas, what a waste of sleep-time. I should probably go catch up on sleep after I clean up the muffin ingredients and pan and the bowl I made the batter in. That makes me realize something. The butter has been out for 2 hours now, next to the oven. It’s probably melted all over. But whatever. It’s a Friday. And even though I had a pretty shitty week, you know what? I’m not going to let a little spilt butter ruin my day.
