the morning after
whoa. so, last night was boring. virginia, karina and i messed around for a while, then got to the reception a little late. we were really overdressed, and barely anyone was there. i saw some of my old friends, who were all like, shocked that i was there. and some who didn't care at all, haha. the stupidest moment went like this:
dumb girl i haven't said a word to since grade 7: hi! didn't you use to be a friend of (person)?
me: uhh.. yeah.
dumb girl: oh, did you hear (something bad that happened to person)? i didn't even hear for two weeks!
me: yes, i did.dumb girl: smiles blankly, drooling slightly at the mouth.
aughhh. she's just training to become a 40 year old overweight housewife, isn't she? yeah. so then we legt, because it sucked, and went to karina's and smoked up. then we found some old yearbooks and videotaped ourselves reading the 3 to 5 year old comments. god, we're lame. haha.
karina and i went by ourselves to the commencement, because virginia had to drive her parents. on the way there, karina and i stopped to get a sub. while we were there, i asked her to buy me cigarettes (since i'm 11 days away from being legal.. hah!) and she was like "that's what i'll buy you for your birthday! cigarettes!" but then i reminded her that on my birthday, i could buy my own cigarettes. "oh yeah! damn." so then she went to buy me a pack and she came back with two, and gave them to me going "happy birthday!" oh dear.
(pause while the author hears november rain on the kitchen radio and goes and rocks out.)
then when we got to the actual commencement, we decided to go smoke up first. so we were walking through the parking lot trying to find someplace we could go where we wouldn't get caught by chinese gifties, and then we ran into them. doh. it was my friend sandra, with her parents, and sandra was introducing me and her mom remembered me and said "always such a pretty girl." haha! so we made up some excuse about going back to karina's car, and ran off. we smoked up and went inside, and it was a dull three hour ceremony.
afterwards everyone came out into the front room and started seeing me. or not. a lot of people didn't seem to recognize me, which was fine. i saw and hugged the obligatory jeff, jason, emily, emily's mom, and a bunch of others. i saw matt. matt is the greatest. he saw me and broke away from who he was talking to, then came up and hit me with a rose. i kid you not. (oh, it wasn't for me though, probably from his girlfriend. :P) anyway, we talked for a bit, then emily's mom saw me and had to talk to me.
later, when he was leaving, matt ran up behind me, messed my hair up, and walked away like he hadn't done anything. did i mention matt is 6'3, has longish dark red curly hair, pale skin, freckles, and is just very cute? how about the fact that we've known each other since grade 4 and he bought me a lisa loeb cd for my birthday in grade 7? hahaha. oh matt.
then the night started to suck, and we left. oh, but not before my old teacher, the "head" of the gifted department, saw me and smiled at me. she gave me this "oh! i didn't expect to see you here!" look and smiled and sort of waved, and it was nice, because i'd spent two years at school hating her and i finaly had some reason not to.
then i got home and dude called me and then rezo called and i passed out on the phone. haha.
