I can't say why I love you. But I do. Yes I do. Sudeep asked formal to Kristina yesterday. It was pretty cool. I don't know why, but I'm not really that disappointed that I'm not going to formal. In fact, I'm kind of glad I'm not going. I'm wondering whether I'll want to go to anything this year or next year. I'd go if my friends went and if I could find someone to go with. I wanna see Andy in a tuxedo. (With ... =) Yes, that was a smiley face implemented into a set of parentheses.
Karen is really cool. Too bad I can't speak more Cantonese. I find that most of the time all I know how to say to her is, "Hai!" or, in English, "Is!" and "Ho!" which means "Good!" Oh well. I had a piano teacher named Karen once. Karen Baddell. Kenny's sister took lessons from her, too. My parents are out of town this Friday. Party at my house! ... not. Gail's away message says: darcy's butt smells good//mr. hunter's doesn't [as with the rest of my teachers] The first part of the away message doesn't bother me as much as the second part. Sure, everyone smells Darcy's butt, and it may even smell good, but Mr Hunter and the rest of her teachers?? That's just crazy. I know I avoided Mr Hunter's butt like the plague last year and I continue to do so up until this point. Yuck. That's just yucky to the max.
Today was picture day! I took pictures like crazy. Almost missed the Key Club picture. Too bad this kind of day doesn't happen more often. I got to hang out in the East Gym a lot today and just chat with people. Mmm, memories of zero period P.E. Geez, I feel boring.
If I had to do without one of my six senses, I would have to say I'd give up the sense of smell. The others just seem too important. Sight, for obvious reasons. If you lost your sight, you would stub your toe a lot more frequently and bang your shin on a lot more coffee tables, and you'd be like, "Aiiiiiiiieeeeee!!!" You'll also become a lot more dependent on little dots on paper, walking sticks, and seeing-eye canines. Then you'll be wishing you lost your sense of touch. But then if you lost your sense of touch, you'd be like the guy in The World Is Not Enough and then you'd lose a lot of good things to touch, like soft skin ;-) and more soft stuff. So then what's next? Hearing... music is just too pleasing to forsake. It's one of the fundamental necessities of life! I couldn't give up the pleasures of song, of whispers in my ear, even if they do come from Derek. If I gave up taste, I'd have to be crazy. Part of being Chinese means a non-stop Chinese food fest! Forget the Corn Pops; I've gotta have my cha seu bao! And ha gao seu mai! Mmm. Yum. And my sixth sense? No way would I give that up EVER. Yeah, you thought I didn't know how many senses I have. Well guess what? No, really. Guess. Well, it wouldn't do you any good, cuz you'd be WRONG!! Ha! I'd say that you don't know how many senses I have. I have a very limited foresight into the future. I can usually see something only RIGHT before it happens. You might scoff at this and say, "Scoff! Everyone can do that. You're such a loser." To this I would reply, "No, you're a loser." And that's when you burst into tears. I fear you underestimate the potency of this sixth sense. One day, when I become rich and powerful, you'll wish you had never made fun of my third eye.
So this leaves the sense of smell. What do you do with the sense of smell, anyway? I don't know about you guys, but usually I smell more bad things than good. There are only a few things that I can think of at the moment that smell good to me: food, and girls' hair. Now, I ask you, why smell food when you can EAT IT? And it's not like girls' hair is so important that I'm going to keep my sense of smell just for that. Just think--no more smelling manure or garlic breath or bad breath or vomit or dead corpses or maggots eating dead corpses or roadkill or death. It's all gone and you'll never have to deal with it again.
Wouldn't everyone look crazy if they all had no hair? Especially girls. Bald chicks have it bad. Like that girl in Shaolin Soccer. She looked like an alien! Soutchay would look pretty much the same as he does with hair. So would Derek. Aaron would look crazy! He'd probably wake up in the morning and not know what to do with all the extra time. Hehe. You know what else would be weird? We'd probably all get skin cancer on our bald heads and die and become extinct. Well, that's what the human species gets for trying to look like aliens! Those wannabes... Always trying to be something they're not.
Kiss me beneath the milky twilight. I guess I'm pretty happy with my life right now. Yes, right........ NOW! Not too sad, not too angry. Just about right. Of course, there are always those little things every now and then, but I don't let them keep me down. I can tell that Michael Chiang secretly would like to punch me in the face, but it's all good. There's a certain someone who likes to be loud every now and then, but it's all good. I feel the world fading at my fingertips, but... well, ya know. Roll with the punches. It's the only way you can survive.
