The election came upon me faster than I could say, "Baldwin Fighting Highlanders." Even more anger insued when I glanced at my posters...torn, drawn upon. This became almost a reminder as to why I considered not running in the first place. Why should I bother contributing my time to better them? To help lead them on some path to a decent, functional life in society. Alas, it only gets worse: the ballot read "Katie Kane" for me. -__- Can you believe that? Okay, my paper was signed "Kathlen Kane", my [gigantic] posters had the name "Kathleen" on it. T_T Could they not walk two feet out of their dilapitated rooms to observe my true name? Blah. The one thing that made my day was when Dave Losket came up to me in Latin class and told me he knew of no one that had voted for my biggest rival only because she spelled "sophomore" wrong on the posters as well. Bwahaha. Little does he know I was just as incompetent. I still cannot get over that. Still, I am certainly thankful I took the posters down.

There was a pep rally during eighth period today. Krissy and I caught up with each other to snatch seats of our own before others grabbed the best ones: the very back. 'Twas a nice day outside, I admit that. Luckily, our class is not that large because it gave Krissy and me the opportunity to sit alone for the most part. We are so sadistic it scares me. Krissy at one point mentioned that being there was almost as if she was living an unforgettable episode of "Daria". x] The purpose of the pep rally (obviously) was to produce more Baldwin High School spirit amongst ourselves enough to beat Woodland Hills. XD This has been the first pep rally in over thirteen years for our school. It was such a waste of time I couldn't believe it. I love how the school board just passed a rule saying it is now okay to have a D-average in a core class and still be able to play football. I love how we have these pep rallies, but are not able to have more than one formal dance each year. Life's truly a bitch, is it not?

I am so thrilled...I have been actually receiving A's in all my classes so far except Advanced Academic Algebra II (Honors). >_< Math was never my strong point. Meh. Hopefully I will manage to bring the grade up one slot. Heh. In Graphic Arts, we started carving into plastic to create intaglio art. I get to use my JTHM comics for them because they are a perfect example of line art. I could have used Spider-man, though. Hehe.

How about I tried out for Drama Club. I was so nervous. I printed out the monologue last night at two in the morning and managed to memorize...most of it. Out there on stage was the greatest rush I have ever felt yet. It was...exhilirating. Although, my body filled with absolute nervousness and I froze, forgetting my lines for what seemed like an eternity. Even still, I kept in character and performed. The end was the best. The actual monologue came straight out of Sleepy Hollow, a Johnny movie of course. ^__^
