Hey, finally a real update to the blog!!! :)
Starting with the customary jotb:
A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from LA to NY. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game.
The blonde just wants to take a nap, so she politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5, and vice versa." Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep. The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500." This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game. The lawyer asks the first question: "What's the distance from the Earth to the moon?" The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5 bill and hands it to the lawyer. "Okay," says the lawyer, "your turn." She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?" The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references -- no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the Net and the Library of Congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends e-mail to all his friends and co-workers, to no avail. After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500. The blonde says, "Thank you," and turns back to get some more sleep. The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?" Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5, and goes back to sleep. And you thought blondes were dumb...
...I personally got a good chuckle out of it, and if you didn't, you're probably brain-dead. In any case, senioritis has been hittin' me hardcore lately. I've basically been living my life by the days, not doing hw till i absolutely must have to. I've stopped learning in all my classes...it's so sad. Yet, i just have no drive to work. Another thing that's really gettin' to me is the fact that i will no longer be here next year. I treasure a lot of relationships i have, and i dont want to be forgotten. Tonight was the annual music banquet. I got the Outstanding Senior award for orchestra. All my friends cheered, and I was happy, but it was my last music banquet at MN. It's crazy, even though i frequently complain about life at MN, I've really enjoyed the past four years. I've made so many friends, and they've shown me a world that I treasure with all my heart. Sure, part of me is ready to move on to the college life, but there are so many people i do not wish to leave behind. Melancholy sucks hardcore. the variety show was last night, and the fine arts seniors all hooked up to sing "time of your life" by green day, and i played the fiddle part. That song made so many people cry, i couldn't help it but feel the sadness permeating through the air. Sarah and I's lil "doodles of a practice room" also turned out well, so i was happy. And now, i'm just gonna try to not think about leaving. Peace.
