Today was fantastic. Fan. Tastic. I'm close to tears I'm so joyous. I'm sorry. It's hard to organize my thoughts in such a spastic state.

•Reasons for a Emotional Day•

1. I woke up, early, 5 in the morning. My brother drove me to the bus stop. I realized in that car, my brother is leaving. For the navy. This very early morning. My eyes welled with tears, and my voice cracked, "Oh my god. It's your last morning here. Dylan. I love you. Good luck in the navy." I hugged his thin body, tight. Then in the darkness of the 6 am bus, all alone, I cried silent salt water. My mind was racing, I was thankful my mom made us take pictures the night before with my favorite cats, thankful I spent some quality time with him, the tears leaked from my nose, I leaned my head forward so the tears wouldn't trash my makeup completely. What a certain sadness. I already miss him. But, after a while, I smiled, and I mouthed the words to the music bursting in my ear drums. Flaws by Bastille. I looked into the vast fields out the window, and I pieced my memories together with my brother. I wish I would've said more, hugged more, said I love you more.

2. I arrive at school, first period, art class with Cara, Darian, Madi, R. My new friends. We paper mâché balloons for halloween spider projects. R was singing Fancy by Iggy Azalea, and I laughed at his cuteness. Cara was classy and fun as usual. Darian is so funny and beautiful. Madi is always smiling and laughing I love them all, really.

3. We had forty minute periods. In biology, Mrs. A said my blue and gold outfit was adorable. I love that lovely teacher. Also, we watched noble gasses react with electricity in a demonstration. Learning about atoms never seemed so fascinating.

4. In history, I have a C+. So I had to figure out why. I talked to Mr. C, and he helped me. I turned in my missing work. I like that he is so calm and collected. He makes a great football coach.

5. At 2:45pm, I kissed David. I wanted to so a good deed for a nice freshman. When I leaned in to kiss him, he attacked my mouth. We knocked teeth, he tilted his head wrong, and he opened his mouth wide. SWALLOWING ME. Luckily, he didn't french me. He's be the first. The whole volleyball team watched, Olive and Hayley watched (Scarlet was elsewhere) and maybe a few other straggling freshmen saw as well. David just engulfed my mouth. It was bad. Really bad. And, my mouth was all slobbery after. My lips felt gross slobbery yet dry at the same time. I just walked briskly off the school premises and Hayley soon followed. I was so grossed out. I had to wipe my mouth. Now I understand what a bad kisser is. I never knew how great my ex kissed. Yikes...

6. At 3:30pm, our town has a tiny little parade to celebrate all the clubs, Homecoming, sports and of course Homecoming royalty. Scarlet was taking pictures with Joy while Hayley and I watched the parade. I have a feeling a bit of gossip is circulating about that kiss. I was blabbing about it for at least an hour to my friends. It was just... scandalous but truthfully awful.

7. A girl named Rosa at 5 pm is hot by a truck while she rides her bicycle. A cat in her backpack. A sweet, quirky, slightly odd sophomore at Kasha Falls. She's flown to Spokane in a helicopter. It's announced at the football game. Scarlet's mom saw the whole crash scene. It was a somber moment. I felt a different kind of sadness. But, I believe she'll be okay.

8. I stole a road sign for my collection on the way to the game.

9. I go to the Homecoming football game at 7 with Scarlet & Hayley. Olive met us there. Then, it was this (hot) French exchange student's last day in Kasha Falls because of complications, so we hung out with him a lot. I hugged him maybe five times. He's actually extremely attractive in a way I can't place. Brown straight hair, glasses, 6'3" (1.9 meters) & incredibly quirky. I just love his style. I'll miss him even though I only really got to know him today. He's only been here a month. I was so sad to hear this was his last school day, but at least he will be at the Homecoming dance tomorrow!

A few girls asked me if I was dating David. I said NO.

I talked a lot with Cara, and our group all started doing different accents. I told Cara to do a American southern accent, and then she said do a British accent. Cara said I did a great English accent, and I felt so honored! Ha. Her southern accent was terribly cute, I promised her by the end of the year we would have it down perfect! She's so fun to be around. And I talked to another girl from Mexico named May. She is also funny and sweet. All the girl exchange students are very nice, and I enjoy being around all of them (boy and girl). I'll miss that French boy, August. He was so sweet. He wore the most magnificent leather jacket, and I immediately knew it was French. Not made or bought here!

I have a smile on my face. What a lovely day. What an eventful, emotional mess of a day! I loved every minute of it, good or bad. Bless your heart, Rosa.
