Hey, guys! Yearbooks today! AND the exposition. I have to play the 2nd violin part to the Bach double (Tera's playing the 1st) and some of Prokofiev's gavotte from the classical symphony. Then I have to present my un-finished environmental architechure game. Yay - soooo nervous. No news, really. I was going to see if my 'rents would let me have lessons @ Hunter Hollow, which is in Coupeville, over the summer, but my dad said that we should try to save money. So there's a neighbor up the street who has a horse and likes V and she's going to give a little horsie camp, so me and some other little girls (probably Kailey, too,) will be riding! Excited - haven't ridden in two weeks. OH! and the instructors at HOPE quit 'cause of the exec president's attitude, so no HOPE this summer. But seventeen days until Jaz comes up!

Hey you guys! This is probably one of my last posts of the year - school lets out on the 17th!
Anyway, nothing has really happened. Romeo and Juliet went well last week - except I kind of slammed into the balcony at the 'sweet sorrow parting' line, cause I had been sliding in socks earlier, but I forgot I had shoes on..... Oh, and I DON'T think Derek has a crush on me. It's just...no. Besides, he's turning 15 in August, so he's nearly three years older than me. And I just don't think I'm ready to get involved with someone yet. I might post later, but people are buzzing around. I'll give Derek the note when we go on our aquarium field trip on Wednesday after tomorrow. I'll be like 'could you give this to it's owner, 'cause it's not mine and it's probably jake's' and then run away and look at the penguins. I'm waiting until the last minute because I probably couldn't look him in the face afterward, and he's leaving for Orlando the day after, thank god. Anyway, I'll email later you guys!

p.s. the group health 'teen awareness, decisions and tough topics' booklet came last night, and I read it, and it was soooooooooo boring, just how periods don't hurt, don't smoke, etc. and now I'm wondering if V is even going to mention it. I'm sorry, but I can't imagine. Like when I asked for a bra a few months ago, she was like 'women with much bigger boobs than you don't wear bras, you're fine', sooooooo yah............. I doubt she's gonna talk about it. Jaz is coming up in 15 days!

You guys need to comment NOW!!

Romeo & Juliet goes up tomorrow! I am sooooo freaked out! My stomach is really messed up. And... I'm worried I've signed up for more than I thought. I'm worried Derek likes me.



Like, in the prolougue, when we have to turn, hold hands, and walk six feet upstage before parting, he said "Actually hold my hand" when I just curled my fingers around his hand. And when just us & Ms. Ashley were working on the final death scene, we were seeing if we wanted to add lines, she's like running through them "...oh churl, though hast left no friendly drop for me, um, I'll kiss thy lips to get the poison from thee, you guys don't want to do that, right?" she says, only the last bit isn't really a question. Derek is lying on the floor, and I'm kneeling over him, cause I have to be able to draw his dagger, and he looks up at me and says kind of quietly so Ms. A can't hear, "she doesn't". And I shake my head. And now he's really sweet, and opening doors and stuff, and when we were debating in seminar where we wanted to go on a field trip, and I wanted to go to the aquarium, and everyone else was undecided, Derek said 'I'll go wherever you want to go' but I can't be positive he was talking to me, as opposed to the whole group, etc. So now I'm kind of scared. Maybe I'm overreacting, but if he liked me, I would be his third girlfriend since September.

I don't know what to do, you guys! Should I ask him about the note? Am I overreacting? Is there even a chance he likes me? I mean, Veronica is always around, being Mrs. PTA mom of the year, and I'm just about good as teacher's daughter! Please you guys, what do you think?
