Song i'm listening to: Switchfoot "I dare you to move"

You know... i really like that song. It's been stuck in my head since Tuesday when i was sitting in the middle of the playing field, in the hot sun with Kennedy, waiting on the girls on my team to decide on what cheerleading they want to do... *sigh* 4 days later and they still can't make their mind up... oh well.

One of my old teacher's sister died this week and the funeral was yesterday. *sniffles* I didn't know her.. but my teacher's a gem. The whole school got half day in order for those who want to go to the funeral to be able to make it in time... I didn't go. I was extremely tired, head ache and all so i went home and my parents went. I was planning to sleep... but i had something very important to discuss with my bgf Daniel... We started around 12 and didn't stop till my batteries were threatening to die on me around... 5-ish... Oh it was like old times... And he we were talking about all the stuff that's been going on this term. Last term at the beginning, during one of our long talks he predicted that a whole lot of drama is gonna go down as it's the last year and nothing really can be done to prevent such.. for that reason... right now the class is nearly split in half from the who cruise drama thing which was made an issue.. everybody's taking sides...

Today during History we were talking about the funeral... Well, i wasn't because i wasn't there... but from what everybody's telling me he spent one little prayer on my teacher's sister and spent the rest of it preaching about dishonesty and condemning other religions and how you're going to go to hell because of it and what not.. a real fanatic... Another student in my class, Krissy, happens to be of that Christian denomination got very offended and well... yea.. The issue was resolved in class.. or so i thought. After History... big fight happened over that and they got personal... Krissy and Mickey that is. And people were just egging them on.. when they got separated this body would run and say "oh she just said so so so.. you taking that?" *sigh*... Leading to further division because the same people backing Mickey are basically the same with the cruise incident.. what's next? But that's not my battle... i refuse to get involved -.-

During History... Miss was like but it shouldn't be like that... Religion is about being humane and forgiving and forgeting and acknoledging a being greater than ourselves etc etc... She also said that it's being able to control your anger and was like any of y'all been able to do that. And i put my hand up jokingly.... AND Shereeeen was like "that's not true"... little minor argument developed through that and OBVIOUSLY i won. Then Miss said forgiving and forgeting.. And I said forgive but not forget.. Miss then says something about then you cant say you've forgiven or the other... THEN AGAIN Shereen who isn't even in History class makes another direct comment at myself saying 'I forgive everybody'... phish... that's what got us where we are and me what i am today... too much forgiving and forgetting... I never said i was aspiring to be a God anyways.. I do forgive and i do forget but when the same thing happens over and over and over again.. what's that called? stupidity? naiveness? I'm sorry but not me again...

Oh I came 2nd in a regional art competition... 2nd award for the year... yay me... i also failed my Math test that i studied endlessly for... I think i'm going to bed now... Goodnight...

I dare you to move -Switchfoot
Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here
