Open Your Eyes for Yourself"
I went to formal. I didn't dance with my date, but I did dance with four other people. Only three of them were boys. When I first got there I just stood with Sarah and waited for everyone to arrive (I forgot my top hat -_-) and that REALLY bugged me!). I still got my picture taken with Meg and Lane (not with Kameron, strangely enough). I did have fun, and the drinks were really good! ^-^ Well, anyway, my dress ripped at one point. Thank God. I seriously didn't give a damn. I was pretty much just . . . ho hum throughout the entire affair. When people went out onto the dance floor (Eddie and Chris [both boys] were the first to dance, I only got one horrid picture of them! I was too far away to get a decent one) I reluctantly followed, but didn't dance until about the third song, and that was against my will. One moment I was saying that I didn't dance, the next I was in the middle of the dance floor with a guy. Not just any guy. The PRINCIPAL! It was so hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing! I'm not sure if he understood why I kept laughing so much. I could also hear Meg, Heidi, madison and Sarah all laughing their asses off. Although, the only distinct words that I heard were "Why didn't you give me the camera!?" In truth, the only reason why I didn't give Meg my camera was because the principal had grabbed me too quickly. I would have loved to see the look on my face while I was dancing with him, just because he got kinda . . . handsy. O.O His hand was actually touching my bare back, and my dress didn't go THAT low. He wasn't trying to be a pervert. He just knew what he was doing. Then I hung out with some people while the announced the princess, prince, kings and queens. This is where my school becomes so horrible. They only choose the really preppy, friendly girls to run for that kind of thing. I mean they get to choose who runs, not the students. Not that I would actually want that. I would decline it if I did win, but I'm sure that there are other girls who aren't preps that would want it. And I talked with anyone who would talk to me, and then I danced "wildly" with Sarah. I pretty much just jumped around like a rabid monkey. I tried to convince Ty (one of my exes) to dance, because he hadn't danced all night! Even I had danced! He wouldn't be persuaded, so instead I danced with a kid whose name I believe is Kyle??? Neither of us knew how to dance and I kept muttering "One. Two," under my breath the entire time. We just wanted to make Ty jealous so that he might dance. Or at least Kyle did, he thought that Ty still liked me . . . I really don't, but Ty ended up dancing with me anyway. Everyone was so happy that he finally danced with someone. I gladly took all of the praise even though Mr. Hayes (the principal) truly deserved it. I went home early because I wanted to eat pizza and cake. I think that toward the end Kyle began to think that I liked him. Boys always seem to think that I'm flirting with them, but I sear that I don't. It's a horrible thing for them to think. I have high standards, for the most part I think that they're cute, but not THAT cute.
I remember a few year back, I read a parody. It was . . . strange. I remember thinking before picking it up "maybe I'm not mature enough for this material yet." As I read the book I realized how right I had truly been . . . it was only after finshing "Barry Trodder and the Unauthorized Parody" that I looked at the back and saw this warning: "If you are wondering if this book is too adult for you, than it probably is." I reread the book a while later and now I love. the point of this story is not desensitization, although that would be the easier way out. The real explanation is that absurd things always stick out in the mind. Even three years after reading that book for the first time, I could still recite several lines from it because they were so strange. A few days back, one of my friends complained that no one will remember her. She is neither absurd or explicit. Therefore, no one will remember her. Do something out of the ordinary. People will recognize you for it. People may mock you for being different, but you can still mock them for being the same.
Why are there about fifty thousand award shows a year for actors? They are already held up on a pedestal all year 'round. Why must we worship them anymore? and why honor them for something that everyone can do? Anyone can act. If you can lie, you can act. It's a simple fact. Don't love them for something that you can do yourself. I understand directors annd special effect guys, script writers, etcetera for their achievements, because that actually takes talent, but acting? No. Comedians deserve awards more than Brad Pitt or Cameron Diaz. If you want to see real talent, you should watch "Comedy Central Presents . . ." (ignore Sarah Silverman).
Yeah, I hate society.
