Tuesday Oct. 25th

Another boring day in my life.  In French, we just talked about the weekend.  I had to describe the excitement in halting French. Calculus we went over some of the homework.  Ms. Job is very slow and steady but I really have a good understand of what is going on.  Who says you can't learn anything from nice teachers.  Physics took a test- I think I did okay.  In English we discussed Edmund Spencer's "Faerie Queene ". At the beginning of the year, we had to recite that poem in ye olde English. It was almost like learning another language. I also got my paper back.   B+ on content and a C on grammar.  This is about par for me.  I write the meat of the paper well but the grammar kills me.  Economics we didn't do much.  Practice was okay. We played kick ball.  It was the seniors vs. the underclassmen.  After we lost I lying on the ground semi pouting and this junior was lightly kicking me.  It kind of pissed me off, so I yelled "Don't fuckin’  touch me!" right in front of the rest of the team and Orcutt.  I had to do 100 push-ups.  I felt stupid for saying it but c’mon. Isn’t there a saying about kicking a man when he is down?           
After practice I drove down to the Air Force Recruiting office to get an application for an ROTC scholarship.  My pop was in the Air Force during ‘Nam. He always talked about how the Air Force was better than the rest.  But he also told me that, if I go in. I should only do it as an officer. I’m not really high on the military in general but I would be a good way to pay for college.  I can’t say that I would even sign up if I were even given the scholarship. Maybe I just want to cover my bases in case I got to some expensive school.

In the library during my free period, I thought Kristen was staring at me out of the corner of her eye.  What does it mean? I wish I knew.  Also I caught Julie staring at me.  I can't figure chicks out.  I wish I knew what these girls think of me, if at all.  I have to take more chances but for now I am wimpy but happy.  Mike and I reminisced tonight about many good times of elementary school and Sky Ranch.  It was fun. Oh well, Say la Vee.  I wish Patty would write.
