Friday Excitement

Ahh Fridays, how I hate you. Most people would love you, but you are the bane of my existence. Ugh. Why do you suck so much? I may never know. So enough complaining about that. On to the events of the day!

The Perfect Cellist

So we have a best friend named Noelia, and she plays the cello. She is so amazing. We were listening to her play her solo this morning, and I almost cried again. She makes every piece she plays so passionate and emotional, it's like she becomes the music. She embodies every single piece she plays, no matter the style. I love her so much. She is pretty much our honorary triplet. I want to hear her play her solo all the way through. 

The Science of Children

Child development was kinda boring since we didn't do much. I spent most of it texting Ari and Elisabeth. Elisabeth always makes fun of us because we text each other even when we are sitting right next to each other. Whatever. She texts us when we are all in the same class and we sit next to her! Oh well. 

The Dreaded AP Classes

So I have decided that today will be boring, based on the fact that we have noting to do. This is typical of Fridays for the regular classes, but we usually have stuff to do for the more challenging ones. Today, however, is so boring. To entertain myself, I messaged Ari and Elisabeth. Elisabeth and I have changed our names to hungry and tired. They switch on and off. I can't wait for this day to be over. The only bad thing is that I will have to jump on my homework for AP euro, since we have terms and questions due for the next chapter on Monday. 

Random Thoughts

I'm so bored right now so I think I will just rant about stuff. Like how annoying guys can be and how much I want the weekend to be here already. I'm excited for Sunday because Ari and I have to work an event. Some people would be like, why would you be excited to work an event? To which I would reply, because it is so much fun! I love working events because it makes me feel useful. I hate doing nothing because then I go stir crazy. It is not a fun thing for me to be idle. This year wil be weird because some people from school are helping, and I don't know if I will like it. This has always been mine. Well, our family's thing. We all help out. I'm not sure I'll enjoy other people helping. Oh well. I can't do anything about it. 

New topic! 

I have no idea why I divulge the details of my life on this thing. I think I use this as a diary because I no longer have one. Part of me is delighted that I can express my thoughts on the internet, and part of me is terrified that people actually have a gateway into my brain. Hmmm. I'm not sure if I should keep this blog going. Who knows. 

So the rest if this day has been pretty boring. Except for science. It was fun. And Ari and I got to see Elisabeth before she had to leave for a competition. She looked really beautiful. The makeup I saw on her really complemented her eyes. They made them look like they had a green ring on the outside. It was so cool. I practically passed out when I got home, and woke up like an hour ago. So yeah that's it for today. So long for now! 

A Thursday Out of the Norm

Here is another post for today, prompted by Arianna. The whole day she told me to "write another post," becuase she wanted to read more. I guess I should take that as a compliment.
So. Today started out with a conversation about needyness with my friend Elisabeth. Our friend Leah had called me needy yesterday because I wanted a hug, and it offended me. It's not like I asked for it, I was just standing in the hall, looking at her. She is the one who came to hug me. Oh well, I digress.
So we went to the practice rooms with Elisabeth. Lesli came later and then Katrina. Lesli was upset, and I wanted to cheer her up, but I think I failed. I wanted to kiss her, but I was afraid to in front of the others. I didn't want to leave Lesli, but I had to go to Spanish.
Spanish was boring, with an annoying sub who treated people like they were stupid when she couldn't even pronounce the words correctly. After that was AP Lang, in which we didn't do anything really. I spent most of the class texting Elisabeth about stuff.
For lunch, we ditched Ms. H and ate on the second floor between A building and B building. It was weird to not eat lunch in her room, but we needed a day to talk about things we can't talk about in front of her. Plus, I was "naked" during most of lunch. Don't worry, it's not what you think. My brother Noel has this thing where he will tell me I'm naked if he can see my shoulders and/or my upper thighs. So I was wearing a cami with a plaid button up shirt and it was hot so I took off the button up shirt. No one really noticed until Lilia came to eat with us. One of the first things she told me was, "Analyssa, you're naked," in a whisper yell. I laughed. Lilia is so funny.
Biology was very interesting. Lelsi sits next to me, and she kept on distracting me. It was not nice. In orchestra, it was the same old, same old. We are getting pretty good and are going to State. I'm excited. We had a string rehearsal after school, so Ari and I went to go meet up with Lesli, Elisabeth, and Lilia. I almost kissed Lesli, which would have gotten me killed, but I didn't. We all walked back to the music building and Lilia said something, but I can't remember what. All I remember is that I punched her for it. I almost never punch her, so it must have embarrassed me a lot. Lesli had to leave early, so we parted ways. Mr. Rivera had gotten pizza, so I snuck out a slice for Elisabeth and I gave Lilia my crust. Lilia had to leave but she called me needy because Leah had yesterday. She meant it as a joke, but it still hurt a little. I don't like being called needy.
The rehearsal was great. We are sounding pretty good. I think we will be ready for state in time. I can't wait. I guess that's all for today. So long for now!

Life

Hi. So it looks like I'm back. Sorry for the delay, my life has kinda been hectic since I last wrote.

So, I guess I should explain to you why I stopped for a while. Well, the day I stoped blogging was the day I found out that my madrina (godmother) had just found out that she had cancer. My other madrina told my mom that Nina Rosi, as we called her, had pancreatic cancer but didn't know. I was devastated. For those of you who don't know, pancreatic cancer is pretty much always terminal because it is so hard to find. My Nina Doris told my mom the Nina Rosi only had a few days, maybe weeks. I have never cried as much as I did that day. What was really hurting me was the fact that I had not seen Nina Rosi in eight years because she lived in Juarez and neither of us had a passport to cross over. I was so scared she would die before I could see her again.

Despite Nina Doris's prediction, my madrina lived about seventeen weeks longer than was expected. She took a turn for the worse in November, so our mom took us over to see her. That was on November 15.  The next day God took her home. That week was the worst week of my life thus far. Never have I cried so much for so long. I think the saddest thing about it was how much pain my family was in. I didn't really know Nina Rosi, but she was my mom's best friend. I cried for the loss my family experienced. I cried for my cousins who lost their aunt, for my cousins who lost their mom. We all were hurting.

Since then my mom has become a little cynical and bitter. It's sad to see her hurting so much. Her pain was made worse when we found out that her cousin had stomach cancer. Thank God it wasn't advanced, but still. Two people with cancer in the same area within 6 months of each other. It tore at my mom. At least he is better and has had the cancer removed.

So enough about that part of my life. I guess I have some good news throughout all of this. I did manage to get a girlfriend in these recent months. For those of you who know me, you might be a little confused. Let me clear things for you. I am a lesbian. I did not come out to anyone except my really close friends at school and my family. So yes, I have a girlfriend and she is awesome. I guess that's all I have to say. This blog will mainly be devoted to what happens in my weird life as well as some stuff that my friends say that I deem hilarious. Please don't judge. I won't if you don't.
