SOYMILK

sorry i didn't know what to type for the subject, lol. anyway, i have two things and one is a funny story! =) but first off, thanks so much to you guys who commented on the interview post thing. totally made my day. well actually i bet it's gonna make my day for weeks and weeks because nice things just stick like that. =) it's pretty neat, if you guys made a post like that then i'd do it for you because it honestly does feel spirit-lifting.

and second, i got to make an announcement on the PA today! it was so embarrassing and scary because i'd never used it before so i was nervous but the whole announcement was ridiculous so it was okay. so basically i'm in "kids who care" which is an elective for people who want to do community service and stuff, and right now we're doing a used pet supply drive for a few weeks and we needed it to be announced. since in the past years the announcements were always really boring, no one ever paid attention to them and the whole drive collected maybe 2 or 3 things over the course of a whole month. so this year i wrote the announcement with my friend (psh how else could it have turned out so FABULOUS? ;D jk) ready? here goes: (let every comma equal a dramatic pause and see if you can imagine it)

"*very deep serious voice* hello children. i am from, kids who care, and i need, YOUR, help. yes. i am talking, to YOU... iMAgine this: a small kitten, only 3 months old.. in an undersupplied, animal, shelter. it is hungry, and shivering. how, can YOU, help, this shelter? there, is an easy, answer. the mspca animal shelter is always, in need, of new or used, supplies. things you can donate, include, old collars, leashes, dog biscuits, cat food, sawdust, pooper-scoopers, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY... dietary supplements for ferrets. *big pause* you can drop your donations off in the box in the office. thank you. and always, remember: save an animal today, and someday, an animal just might save, YOU."

the point was to try and sound like one of those guys on the anti-drug psa's on tv and stuff and i pulled it off without cracking up which was relieving. so i went back to my homeroom thinking that no one would know it was me because i made my voice so deep but right when i walked down the hallway people literally ran out of their classrooms and were like "GEEENA. YOU'RE SO WEIRD! THAT WAS TOTALLY YOU!" and i was like umm hehehehehe no i don't know what you're talking about whoops i gotta run! i'm late for homeroom! and right when i made it to my homeroom everyone was cracking up and they were like "NICE JOB HIGH FIVE" and then i felt kind of discouraged because if so many people can recognize my voice as a man does my voice naturally just sound manly? i don't know, so i was thinking about that all of first period. i guess my voice is kind of manly. only i can't really tell all the time because half the time i talk i'm talking goofy and high. oh and i have to make that announcement three times a week now for maybe 5 weeks. i can't do the exact same thing each time, so maybe i'll change it a little bit every day. like maybe next time for the last sentence would be "give a used collar to a dog in need today, and maybe someday, when you are in need of a used collar as well, a dog will donate one to you!" lol something cheesy like that. :D

anyway i guess that's all i had to say. the rest of the day was pretty normal, except between EVERY period i swear people were still coming up to me and being like "*squinty eyes* that wasn't YOU on the announcements in the morning, was it??" i wanted to be like SHUT UP YOU'RE MAKING ME FEEL LIKE A MAN but um.. yeah. i didn't. :P

oh and the whole thing where my friend read my email is okay now. i feel terrible because she said that she felt so bad after reading it that she stayed home from school for two days. wow. i am such a butt. but the thing is, when she came back i brought it up finally and at first she tried to deny even going into my email, so i got mad and i was like "look, i'm SORRY i said that all in an email to someone else when i could've told you face to face, but i don't take any of it back, okay?? and also, it's not like i haven't already TOLD you a million times that you're totally annoying!" (i know it's really bitchy but you need to meet her first before you judge anything i say to her) and so we just talked and she was like "no, the thing is, i feel bad about MYSELF. i'm not mad at you, i just never realized before that i really do piss people off blah blah blah" and basically things are good again.

huh. i sure ramble a ton. see today i planned to just make a small 2 paragraph or so post and then do my social studies project and WELL.. i don't know how long it is now. hehe whatever, it's fun. =)

love you all TONS AND TONS FOREVER AND EVER!!
