Life is meaningless unless you share it with someone else. I read that not long ago, regarding the theme of a new movie that releases soon. For you people that know me well, you often witness my shallow attempts to be anti-social and dissembling communication. I’ve begun to realize that when I graduate from high school in a week I cannot simply forget the people I held friendships with. Several times I’ve conversed with underclassmen about the futility of relationships in high school due to their lackluster effects after graduation; I personally don’t want to have to keep in touch with three dozen people after I’m off for VT. But I suppose I can confess that there is a priceless advantage to having friends and companions in our lifetime, and even in high school. Sure they may come and go, but we all begin to learn and rephrase ourselves through each other. While it seems very attractive for me to be by my own for the rest of my life, it’s admittedly not going to the be the best choice of direction to take especially when life starts with those ups and downs. This concept of socialite is very new to me, so I consider these next months before leaving an experiment of the fancy. Ok, now I’m sounding retarded. It’s so hard to concentrate on a blog when you’re thinking about graduation.
Happy belated Birthday to Bob Hope who turned 100 on May 29. I watched some of the clips showing his comedic routines from the 50s and it was very entertaining.
Arcadetown.com I will just assume most people who are interested in online gaming would have found this sight by now, but I’m linking it anyway. Tony had some ::cough:: nice moves on this particular game involving intergalactic warfare. And no, I am not particularly interested in online gaming, but I find this one game interesting, although it’s just a rip-off of an old Encarta tutorial.
So last night was the big Spring Concert. The bands did well. The trombone quartet did bearably well, although I seriously screwed up in Lassus which threw the other three off; oh well, I think the crowd liked the songs regardless. Mr. Webb got the massaging chair we (seniors) got him. The Star Wars scenes were fine, thanks to the Pop Bottle Quartet. And congrats to Kenny and Erin for being awarded the highest honors in the JF Band program! And after the concert a dozen or so of the seniors went to Billy Joe’s where they refused to sell us anything besides ice cream. But Ryan bribed the host guy to make him a burger meal. Still, some good times even with ice cream outside in the cold rain.
And today was the Senior Awards assembly. The class of ‘03 of JFHS received nearly $1.4 million in scholarships and grants this year. Mighty Fine. The food afterwards was…swell…as well.
