11:00 Whoa, it's finally over. Sorta freaky. School is over and I'm not really excited. I guess I liked my junior year. I got to do alot of fun stuff this year, best year in High School so far. I just wish I coulda just chilled out more often with my friends during the year. I don't think I wanna do the job thing next year, I wanna enjoy my final year in high school. I can hardly believe it myself, a year from now today I'll be graduating High School, saying goodbye to my friends and missing simpler times. Gah, I hate it. I guess we'll be the big dawgs on campus next year. But all in all this year has been fullfilling, which is a really good thing. Accomplished more this year than last year.
Apparently Ronald Reagan passed away recently and tomorrow will be his rememberance day as he's buried or something. I guess it's good to pay respects for a president of simpler times, something I've been yearning for a while now. But he was old and he was suffering from Parkinsons or Alzheimers or something. Not a complete surprise.
Apparently I'm making it a tradition that I get beaten up on the last day of school, then go out to watch a movie after. Last year I got beaten up by Johnson for an English scene then went to watch 2 Fast 2 Furious with Gwen. This year I get beaten up by Brewer in an English presentation-skit thing imitating Nickotrel skit from SNL withthe Rock where he goes into your house, beats you up if you smoke and sleeps with your wife. But yeah the only thing different now is a different group. Jackie Me and Randall of our corner have succesfully finished our presentation along with Brewer. It was fun, even though it seemed like Speller had some reservations about it. But after totally just messing around during History, I went with ALicia, Ben, Mark, and Cameron to Century 20. We grabbed lunch at Fudruckers and they went off to watch Harry Potter 3. I was going to go with them but I had seen it earlier when I took my little sister to watch it on Monday. So after grabbing Jamba Juice for Camille, ANdy, and Jenn, we caught the 2:15 showing of Mean Girls. I sorta liked that movie, partially cuz I like Lindsey Lohan and the other part cuz I think Tina Fey is a really good writer. But it was fun. Then played DDR with them, which turned out disastrously since I haven't practiced for so long and I got pwned by Andy. Makes me feel sad. I guess that's a sign I need to practice again? We'll I'll hopefully have time later. After rounds of air hockey against Jenn (Which I won btw, and Andy lost to her) Me, Mark Lai, and Steven Hui snuck into THe Day After Tomorrow and sorta met up with Cameron, Everett, Darius, and Gwen. That movie was cool, just I don't believe captive arctic wolves from the zoo would turn into killing machines after being released from the zoo. All prior incidences show that animals released improperly from captivity try to actually get BACK into their cages. But besides that it was a fun movie. I met a lot of people at the movies. Joe Brewer and Fat Will were there too, apparently Janelle was on her way. Then Cameron poured Salt into my water at Fudruckers (you punk) and there bumped into Everett, Darius, Priscilla, and Gwen and such. Will and Tiff and Tiff's sister was there too. Kidnapping Tiff didn't exactly work and I assumed Will would not be thrilled if I tossed Tiff into the garbage can. Well I headed home after the movies and here I am now. I need to get camp forms soon, then I should write letters back so Clar can finally get prom pictures from me.
I hope I get my unweighted 4.0 again. I just made my Spanish A with a 90.53 cuz I did bad on final but did X-tra credit. The only Final Grade I'm sorta apprehensive about is English but w/e, its over now. Becca and Rod and Phobe's group presentation was hecka funny, ALlen and Josh usually make their presentation fun. Just like Phoebe and Regina's History project , I especially liked Phobe's sound effects when she hummed the presidential theme song or w/e it's called. Like our history project wasn't great. It's here by the way, if you wanna see it. It's not great. At least it did moderately well in the grading scale. I forgot to see my final grade for Bio. And somehow Daphne got a hold of my old AP BIo book for her summer thing or w/e for AP Bio summer reading. It's all good, the book she got is practically Brand New since it was new when I got it and I only opened it a total of 2 times during the whole school year. Man, I wanted to Chill with ALvin down at Fisherman's Wharf today to celebrate my first day of freedom. But alas, it was not so, we were both tired from our respective events. ANd CHris called me DURING class to do something. Grr, I wanted to go. But naw, he went to the Gym without me. Blah. I've only got one day to rest tomorrow and I might be going out too. Tmorow is Rhea's birthday too. But I have one day before the extremely tiring weekend with fishing trip and all day KCDC meeting. Well I'll be off. I miss my friends at school!!!
I already miss school...................

11:58 Wedding was hecka cool! Congradulation Brian and Vicky!! You guys are finally married. Mucho fun at the wedding. It was soo cool how Brian sang You're My Inspiration as Vicky walked down the isle. Very Cool. Wedding was very pretty, it was cool when we got there early to help set up. Took HECKA long to make that balloon arch, even then we started playing with helium after. Helped carry stuff in and out and other random tasks before the ceremony. Ceremony was very nice. I was glad Sarah came. I'm not sure if Shang got too many pictures with my camera of the ceremony, well I'll just have to wait and see. Took lots of random pictures of different things, I was surprised the batteries on my camera didn't die. Took pictures with Bride and Groom and friends and Steve. We tried to get Rev. Steve to get the garter but he dodged it, darn! After the reception Me, Will, Mike, Marcus, and Shang were there washing dishes and eventually made our way to Stonestown afterwards.
We bought some stuff, bummed around Brookestone and cruised the mall. Even took a field trip to Victoria's Secret with Laura and Angela. We eventually got to Chevy's for Dinner. Shang, Will, Marcus, Tiffany, Victoria, David, Justina, Laura, Kathy, Sarah, and I had dinner. It was fun with random conversation and stuff. I had left earlier to pick up a rose for Sarah since I wasn't able to cut school for her Birthday. That's when they decided to do their dumb thing. We had food and apparently one of them told them that it was my birthday so after dinner the waiters ran up and slapped a sombrero on me and sang Happy Birthday. My friends rock. It was cool even though it wasn't my birthday. Hecka dumb tho but w/e, always fun. Later dropped Shang and Tiff back at their repsective houses then got to my house. Vix, Will, Marcus, Auzzie, me and Sarah watched Scary Movie 3 and played with Oreo. All my friends are Awesome, crazy and stupid and immature at times, especially me, but they're cool.
It's a wake.............

11:59 I'm still under an unimaginable amount of stress despite having been almost done with school. These stupid school final projects are taking a lot out of me. It's almost usless at this point but w/e. I'll suck it up and take it. After leading a mock uprising against Riskind by stating "I'm not doing it" in reference to the final project, he was forced to cut it down. Authority is great.
I'm going to miss not having Dupre in my math class next year. He always made it fun in all my classes, the same math class for 3 years and it's never been a dull moment when he's around. He alwyas knew what to say to make it interesting and clowned on teachers and fellow classmates alike. He will be missed. Adalbert too, he'll be leaving for Irvine next year and him not being there is going to be sucha wierd experience, Kat is gonna be gone too, so is Matt and Kathryn. SUx, why everyone is leaving and going away. Today I wound up talking to a new friend I met the other day for like most of the afternoon. Haven't talked to random people for a while, it was cool. This Sarah person is turning out to be a pretty cool chica. And then during 6th period I got April to put a "Property of Jon!!!" sticker on her breasts. So when she was distributing yearbooks she proudly anounced that they were mines. Very cool. I also slapped a couple "Property of Jon!!!" stickers on Abby's stuff too. Good times. And Mr. Miranda said something to me today that I've been pondering about for a while. "Wow Jon Jon, you're really blessed by God" And you know what, I am. I don't have to worry about so much and God's done alot to keep it that way. Way awesome. I'm super thankful for all my blessings and there will always be more to come cuz our God is an awesome God. I'm thankful for my family and friends and oh so much other stuff. I should sleep now cuz I've been pushing my limit for waay too long. Hope I don't do this before I take the kids to the Zoo, I want them to see the Savanah habitat!
Count your many blessings, one by one.............
