Paper stars and candy bars.

The "prom diet" is going a lot better than I thought. Instead of just maintaining a nice steady weight- I lost weight. Its not bad or anything. Especially considering I gained a bit of wait recently- like right after I came back from Italy. I was at 129 the whole trip, then when I got back and ate some Mexican food again I gained like 7 pounds! We're back to 129. Thats a nice number I think. My face has thinned again. No chubby cheeks. I know its shallow to think about weight like this but, hey. I'm just a girl. A girl who's seen herself fairly skinny and knows she can do it. And its not like I'm being unhealthy about it. I'm a vegetarian who eats right and the right proportions, only drinks milk and water (very good things for you) and occasionally tea- unsweetened. I don't like sweet tea. I do daily exercises, commit myself to getting up and off my bum. Never will I throw up or drop eating all together. So we can't call Alex unhealthy for this "diet" because it isn't a diet really- its just my choice. And a healthy one at that.

Can you tell I'm tired of people criticizing my decisions. I mean, honestly!? This isn't a bad decision, at all.

Today was fairly nice. Oh well.. besides starting that nasty girl thing. I got to school on time. Had my homework done besides Spanish which I managed to do during Chemistry. I'm not sure how Flueguel didn't notice. And if she did- she didn't seem to mind it. Even though I know she does mind that stuff. She did call on me a few times thinking she finally caught me not paying attention. But I answered swiftly and accurately. Ten points for Alex.

Patty and I haven't hung out during lunch this whole week! She promises that we'll get to tomorrow. Buuut Drew's sudden interest in me (and mine in him) has him wanting me to spend time with HIM during the lunch period. I told him my prior commitment and then proceeded to tell him that I MIGHT be able to spare some time. Then there is always seeing him during sixth if I can again and after seventh.

We weren't doing in anything in sixth today (US history which I'm making a 96 in by the way. Eaaasy class.) besides watching Pearl Harbor- Hollywood version. So I talked Johnson into letting me go to the library to read. I think I read about one page. This because Drew really wanted me to skip and hang out with him in the library. I'm good though- Johnson loves me, so I didn't have to skip. Johnson let me go to the library, wrote a pass and everything. I wonder if i can do it again tomorrow. Drew would like that. But I don't know...

We played bingo in English with the literary terms. That was fun. If you won you got TEN POINTS added to any essay grade of your choice! ...I didn't win. Not even close EVER. And I even switched boards and everything! Oh well. Maybe there will be a next time.

Got my Spanish homework done in class today- the one due for tomorrow. I did it in Spanish. It was super easy.

Choir is fun. We're preparing our show for the end of the year. I think Drew will come. I told him about it. He says that if he goes its only for me. Well duh- haha. But its cute none the less. I have a small itsy bitsy solo. I'm excited.

And then. This is my last year at Bowie. Oh woe is me. Seventeen days left until I leave pratically EVERYONE except maybe two people... But then again, seventeen days left until I'm a senior. What a feeling. And! I managed to get things done. Those things I really needed to do as a junior. I did them. SATs, TAKS, AP tests, college searching, grade defining, ACC paperwork. Mhmm- I'm on top of the game. Oh but hell, I can't even began to think of the summer without needing to sit down. Its going to be so busy. Ick. More on that later though.

Alexandra out.
