| Just think. Intellectual Entries. A first, in my opinion.
I swear to all that is righteous in the world, I had about three entries lined up to post in the past couple weeks. But in one of those irrational, impulsive bursts of late-night stupidity during which you believe you're being inspired to make rash decisions because "it feels right," I deleted them all. I am convinced that this same impulse will someday result in the jilting of my fiancee at the altar and making off to some remote part of Zimbabwe for a bit of "alone time."
It's May already? I could be boring and remark that "time flies," or that time passed "in the blink of an eye," or something equally uninspired, but I won't. I must keep my nose to the whetstone. I keep myself up to high standards of writing so that I won't be reduced to parroting trite aphorisms to express myself. I don't want to be like those visiting distant relatives that stare blankly at you for a good 13 seconds then suddenly explode in showers of "how much you've grown!"because of a severe lack of original thought and meaningful conversation. Unfortunately, my arsenal of freshness and novelty has rusted over, and nothing original comes to mind.
Boy, time flies, doesn't it?

On a side note, one that encompasses the teenage experience--PROM. It was fun, complete with laughter, bad dance music, embarassment, and of course the lethargic stupor following the next morning. Though I did not partake in some of the revellries, I had a rather fun time--making myself wish I was graduating with these great seniors, Class of 2006. Today I feel a sense of urgency as I reflect back on last night-- the fun times, observing friends which have stuck together for four years, spending probably one of their last fun nights together. Next year, what paths will they take? Where will they be? I only wish that they will continue to remain friends. His friends were really fun, not shy in front of new people--a complete opposite of my own circle of friends. I took a picture with Ren jie jie, Meng Dai jie jie , and Eve-- a girl I didn't know at all. I was kind of aggravated about it at first, but minding my manners I didn't say anything. Not that she was weird or anything, I found it awkward taking a picture with someone I didn't know, (perhaps the feeling was mutual, who knows?)AP tests are coming, and rather than studying for them I'm here on xanga, how lovely. But I'm done with the practice tests for both Calculus and Statistics ( the AP that will suck), and Biology awaits for tomorrow.
