Pierced Ears.. :-p
So i have wanted to get my ears pierced for a long time now. And my mom and dad dont really approve of it but since im 18 i decided i was going to get it done!! I didnt want anything big or fancy. I decided to go with just a steel ball on both side of the bar. Im not going to strech them or anything but just something simple. This is what they look like now!!
I like it and am glad i did it. Plus it didnt even hurt as much as i thought it would. I have had shots that hurt worse!! Im excited its nice to have a change in my life!! What do you guys think? I wonder how long it is going to take for normal people to realize that i got them done? My youngest brother who we didnt tell still hasnt noticed. Im not going to tell anyone but you guys and see how long it takes lol!!

There’s a scaling factor in terms of girls and rubik’s cubes.
If a girl is already attractive and she’s got a rubik’s cube, she becomes MUCH more attractive.

A successful Prom!!
So Prom was yesterday and if you didnt see my post where i was all worried about it then this probably wont make much sense…
Anyways it was awesome!! I ended up going in a group with some friends even though i was the only single in the group. We took pictures and then went to Bravo (an high class itallian restaurant) and i got to sit on the end so everyone could sit next to their dates but i was next to 2 girls and we talked like the whole meal which was nice!!
Then at the dance i got nervous again because i didnt see anyone that was looking to dance, it was like 50 degrees and the dance was outside so i was standing by the heater warming my face starting to be depressed when some girl i had never seen before (probably saw my prom court sash) came up and asked ME… actually asked me if i wanted to dance. That just about made my night.
I think we litterally danced for 1 and a half hours straight. (for those that dont kow high school dances now a days dancing is just grinding in one spot for long periods of time) But it gets really tiring and she had to go get some water. So i went and sat down to rest my thighs which were on FIRE!! I couldnt find anyone to dance with though i actually asked a couple people who said their dates wouldnt let them which is lame but i didnt get mad.
Towards the end the same girl saw me wandering around not dancing and yet again asked me to dance. Again it was an amazing feeling. We got a couple songs in then the last song was a slow song and i have never danced with anyone in High School during a slow song! But this girl (jolie) just turned around and started dancing with me. And it was just an amazing feeling knowing that this person I didnt know was just dancing with me (kinda romantically). That ended and she leaned up against me while they thanked everyone for coming to prom and just rested her head on me. It was just surreal! Im not even sure how to explain it. Except for an amazing feeling!
In the end even though i was not crowned Prom King and My Ex wasnt named Queen which was good everything worked out better then I had ever hope for. This was probably one of the best dances i have ever had in my life!! And thanks to Jolie who just randomly came up and asked me to dance.
What a way to end my high school career. Probably the best thing that has ever happened to me in HS. Prom Court and someone asking me to dance! I wish i had know of Jolie before this dance because i could have asked her and gone as a couple which would have been even more fun!
After the dance i went back to the persons house we took pictures at and watched Jackass with them. It was fun and i barley got any sleep when getting home but it was all worth it! For all my worrying this was awesome!! Thanks Jolie Ripley!!

Prom….?
So prom is saturday and im a senior and everyone says i need to go to my senior prom. Well i had decided that i wasnt even going to go, i couldnt find a date and a group.. blah blah blah… well anyways wednesday i find out i fucking made prom court!!! Since it is voted in my the teachers and i am the biggest suckup/teacherspet ever i obviously made the final 5. Well not only me but my Ex GF from freshman year also made it. Well she cheated on me and all hell broke loose and we have barley talk till this year because we are in the same student aide class and so its hard not to talk, but it still sucks. And i cant seem to find a date because everyone planned ahead and asked early but since i wasnt going to go i didnt even plan on asking anyone… [breath]… Now i kinda have to go because if i dont have win Prom king it would be kinda weird if i wasnt at the dance… Now you know my delima. Not to mention i have a irrational fear of rejection and so asking a girl i dont know to dance fucking scares the crap out of me. Maybe if it was normal dancing i would be cool with it but High School dances are just a bunch of kids grinding on eachother in a massive orgy, which i like it i dont have to ask someone to dance…
So now i have to find a date tomorrow or just not go, or just go alone and see if it work out! Maybe i will post what happens after saturday on here if all goes well…well if it goes bad i will post it to. If you have any advice please leave it here so maybe it will help!!
