"You have to change to succeed."
I suppose that is the moral of this year; change. Anicca - impermanence. Find the Middle Way between two extremes.
I'm going to miss Mr. Willmen so much, I want to cry.
Ms. Tester teared up. I did too. We were a good little group, us AP art kids.
After school, I spent about an hour with Ms. Brigance unpacking all the yearbooks, leafing through to see if there was any sign of printing failure.

Brevity: God Bless You, Mr. Danenbarger
May. 19th, 2009 07:15 pmThe senior dinner was.
It was a very good microcosm of high school.
At my glorious table sat Sam Lauf to my left and Ms. Brigance to my right, with Caroline and then Taylor Rooney, Lazar, Christy Heidbreder and Lisa. Ms. Brigance is getting married in two weeks to Caroline, once she becomes legal.
Mr. Danenbarger was the speaker, as he is well-spoken and good friends with brevity. He ate two marshmellows. We are all practiced gratification delayers.
What the hell was that.

Yes, indeed. It was also the last "real" school meeting of my 2005-2009 career. Wow. Do you remember when Myspace was the place, Justin Timberlake was poppin' and hipsters hadn't yet multiplied like dandelions?
I've had every first period this week free. Had to come in for them but, hey, I get my just deserts with no classes tomorrow.
THIS MAD is amazing. I wish it was the real anime, sob.
David posted a particularly lulzy Happy Birthday, Andy! post to campus info. That smiley face? ME.
Only three classes today: Sanskrit, Econ and Eastern Thought. My favorites!
Also: Dat Portuguese ass.

THAT FUCKING DRILL.
May. 11th, 2009 11:13 amToday is horribly boring so far. I've only had art, and all we did was plan out our gallery space. No Walden today, as he's taking the Bio AP. That means no Catherine or Kate either. Man, even the meme is dead.
At least I look cute today! White paneled shirt and grey dress = hubba hubba~
I am contemplating buying an Italy One Coin figure, but shipping might be too much of a bitch. Negotiations will be pursued.
Edit: Okay, $5 shipping was too much. Dang! I am now convincing myself that $20 for a tiny gashapon is not worth it.
We watched Hoffa in econ, and now I wish the class could form our own Teamsters gang. Mr. Willmen is the mastermind organizer, Mark Myers the charismatic spokesbro, Park the brains of the outfit, and I the... cutesy button secretary. It would be BEAUTIFUL!
