Ever close your eyes so tight or so long when you open them again, you can actually see a Space Invader game playing before you in a haze? Yeah, It's funny then you get a head ache, no bueno.

I tried focus my attention on the lunatic of a teacher I had waving his hands in crazed movements, had I not been listening briefly that we were going over the, 'Battle of Fort Sumter', I would believe he was chanting what Native American calling of the rain. With his Albert Enstien hair, never more untamed. Sure, Mr. Lurge may bare some resemblance to the great mad man scientist, but no...I sometimes wonder how he manages to make it class. Sighing and running my hand through my hair again, peeking over my shoulder to catch a glimpse of El sleeping again, while Stacy was busy doodling on his hand with a smirk on her face. Some awesome story for the future is going to unfold from her smirk, it always does.

My eyes caught movement in the front of the room, as Alison drew her head up to respond to Mr. Lurge's ranting. I sighed, the Alison I knew at one point wouldn't even hesitate an would just be correcting non-chantly our teacher on his lack of accuracy on the timeline or even the whole history lesson. With her small smirk playing in between a soft smile and victory triumph in small moments. It's things like that, that felt normal, but this doesn't. It's like if I'm in a alternative universe. Before, ever day brand and new. How we managed to get through the day was a grand miraculous fortune. Now, I can tell you what exactly what we'll be doing and the exact time as on schedule.

A year ago time was the least of our worries. Now, every moment counts. At least, to Allison and I. You see no one knows exactly when it started, but it did. Each year now our time has been counting down to our end. Which, we found out a months ago we probably not going to live pass 19. Alison gave up, devastated in hearing that. Simply, because a curse she may have, "may" is the key word. But, I don't plan on giving in. I see a full life ahead of me and I'll be damned if Alison isn't with me. Fighting our so-called, "Destiny" "Faith Outcome", is my goal. Saying again, we live for the rest of our tomorrows in front of us, that's my mission. Now, I just have to get the surrendering beauty in the front row to agree with me. Curses, can be broken...

Until next, Batz. (:
