Five

Hey, sorry I didn't write again yesterday.
But since I finally have some time...
Well, on Thursday I just went home and watched Mad Men until I fell asleep.  I found out around nine that the cross country meet the next day had been cancelled because of the heat.
On Friday I woke up at around two.  I went to mall with my sister and picked out my homecoming dress.  I found it in about twenty minutes, which is strange because the last two years I just borrowed them because I couldn't find one that I was partial too.  I really like the one I picked out though.  It feels classic.  It's creme colored and all lace.  After the mall my sister and I went to her house on campus.  We went for a run and then I watched Mad Men again, as Bridget watched Sherlock.  I spent the night there.
I woke up around eleven and Bridget took me home.
The next day I went to Eckert's Orchard to pick apples with my friend Katie.  On our way home we went to the mall, as there is nothing else to really do in Saint Charles.  Then we returned to Katie's house...  to her basement specifically.  Jackie and Marie came over.  We went to Jackie's boyfriends house.  His name is Mike.  He's very nice, but he can be kind of scary.  He's adopted and has some anger issues, but I think they're getting better.  This is the third time Jackie has dated him.  Their "love" was rekindled over Seedbearers.  Seedbearers is a summer church retreat at St. Elizabeth Ann Seaton.   He broke down crying during  adoration and gave Jackie his whole life story apparently.  I like Mike, but there is just something off about him.  He seems stupid or something... it's mean but it's true.  But who cares about Mike.  What really makes me sick is Jackie.  I guess I'm her best friend.  Or at least I think I was about a month ago.  But after the summer I have had, I can't really stand her.  She has this desperate, constant need for attention.  It's disgusting.  Anything interesting happening in your life is instantly tossed aside or ignored by Jackie.  When I told her about this project I told her she should try it too.  Now she claims to be doing it, but two days ago she was eating M&M's.  When I said something to her she feigned innocence.  Blah, blah, blah.  Whatever Jackie.  At least I have Katie.  Katie and I are going to Costa Rica this summer by the way.  I'm excited about that.  But Jackie had to trump that by bragging about Paris and Rome and whatever.  I want to be happy for her but she makes it so hard.  Oh she's also bulimic apparently.  I overheard her talking to Mike about it.  It makes me sick that she told him and not me.  Especially after the problems I told her about this last summer.
Sorry all this got spewed out on a page.  I didn't really think while writing it...
The Vegan diet is going fine, it's not very hard honestly.
The past two days have been beautiful.  I love it.  When I run I feel like nature is with me instead of against me.  I feel like I'm a part of nature.  It's amazing.
Tomorrow is another day of school.  I'm happy its a four day week.  Mondays are not very fun.
I wonder what I got on my AP Government test.  I don't see a very good score in my future, even though I did study.  It's just kind of hard to study 90 pages of a text book in three weeks when your teacher is gone for half of it and didn't even give you notes.
I don't really care though.  I'm just trying to be happy.  Forget the rest.
