The mouse is still alive. I could hear it skimper across the floor last night when I came home from Jen's at 12:30. Is skimper a word? Because the red squiggles on spell check are indicating that it isn't but i swear it is.

My hair still smells like campfire even though I have showered twice.

Today I went to Sweets and Java with Parker. Lanny, Graham, and Kathryn all came for a little bit. After Parker registered to vote at the town hall, and everyone else left, we walked over to the Library and explored. We found this staircase that was unlocked and after taking a few steps and seeing that it looked like a bad idea to continue, we went and looked at Arthur books. Did you know Arthur has been around over 30 years?

I finally picked up my dress at the alteration place and then proceeded to buy $7 earrings from the Dress Barn that only slightly match. Prom is in three days.

Tomorrow I have my one and only final. Human Anatomy. Which I intend to get a D on, and if a miracle occurs maybe a C. Whenever I need to study for something I sit in my bed with the pillows propped up. It's the only place that I can focus because everywhere else in my house is loud especially now that my brothers are home from school. But whenever I do, I fall asleep within thirty minutes. I could be showing no signs of sleepiness but the second I begin studying in my bed its like something triggers in my brain that says "go to sleep." There's pretty much no hope for tomorrow, but I will try my best.

The song of the day is Side With the Seeds by Wilco.

The treetops nod, the rain applauds the park grows dark and the swings all slowly die.

p.s. I am getting excited for college!
