Hey it's Cat :P

So I kind of feel like I flew off the handle a bit with my last rant and I feel kind of bad about it. I appreciate any advice anyone gives me, I was just really frustrated with people not replying to my rant before that. It wasn't the best night for me, but I'm feeling a bit better now (I listened to 'Missing You' by All Time Low before I went to sleep, I totally suggest it if you ever feel like shit. The lyrics are super inspiring and the tune is perfect for cheering you up).

Anyway, I'm kind of excited about something :)

So tomorrow night, my school is having this "Father-Daughter Dance" where all the girls in the school and their dads are invited to come hang out for like 2 hours in the cafegymatorium and it's really sweet because my school is Pre-K3 through 8 so there's a ton of different ages and people there. It's been happening since I was 4 and I've been to every single one but I'm feeling a little sad because it's my last one ever.

I feel like my dad and I have a way better relationship than my mom and I do. I mean yeah, my mom talks with me about all the "girl stuff" and takes me shopping and enjoys it because she never did when she was younger and I usually don't enjoy it now, but my dad...gets me more. He usually knows when to tell the right story or say the right pun or show me the right picture to make me feel better when I'm obviously feeling down. He and I can just look at each other and start laughing because we both start thinking the same thing. We have inside jokes with each other that we've shared for years and we still remember them to this day. He's like my closest ally when it comes to my mom yelling at me for something (usually...lately he's been taking her side a bit more).

I just want tomorrow night to be perfect. I want to be able to dance with my dad and not care what other people are thinking of me. I want to go out and have fun with him, along with my friends. I want to enjoy tomorrow as much as I possibly can.

I'm just praying that nothing ends up popping up during the dance that makes me majorly pissed once I'm home at the end of the night.

Also, this is kind of unrelated, but I found out a few weeks ago that my high school's play is going to be West Side Story! I'm trying out, obviously...tryouts are at the end of May and I'm terrified but hopefully I'll be okay.

So yeah, lots of hopefully good things happening soon.

Let's hope they stay happy.
