Songs to Remember: Cool For the Summer - Demi Lovato

        I think I have a thing for music. I first heard of this song about a couple months ago from my cousin. I didn't know the name of it, but a part (in what I now know is the chorus) sounded a lot like Jessie J's "Domino". I was like "Oh jeez, why are you listening to Jessie J's Domino" and he was like "No it ain't". I heard it again today when the school was playing this song during lunchtime near the senior tables. At home, I looked up exactly "pop song that sounds like domino". First thing that came up, "Cool for the Summer" by Demi Lovato.

        So the beginnings of these seasons so far aren't bad either. Well, at least for this one. Psychology was just, practice with how the song goes. The school blocked access for any "Rap God" videos on YouTube. We could'vr used our phones, but there's no setting on mobile to slow down the videos. So, we just were like "Fuck it, we'll find a slowed down video at home". Little did they know (forget actually) that the song's explicit, and uh, we need a clean version. A clean, slowed down version. Well, looks like I'll be practicing with the full, fast version.

        English, now that's where it got interesting. 5th period as well, but, still. I sat down, the teacher has "I Hate Mondays by The Boomtown Rats playing, I'm on my phone. Then the teacher says we'll be changing seats today, it's a new grading period (every 6 weeks). I was just like "WOOOOO". The teacher has the seating chart at the front of the room on the front podium, I rush on over, take a good look at everything.

        I was like "Let's see, okay, Lt's sitting like right in front, okay, I see Drew! But that's actually DrewN. Damn. Where am I at, oooohhh, I'm over to the left". There's still a person sitting in between me and her, she's in the middle of the classroom to the right, I'm on the right side of the classroom, at the front as well. Not bad though, I'm like, 5 1/2 feet away from her actually. At least, that was what it said on the seating chart.

        I'm guessing a dude got confused the seats or something, I could've sworn I would be sitting behind a dude, but, apparently he just went on over and sat in the seat behind where he was supposed to sit. His buddy was next to him too so, I was like hey, whatever, works for me. And bam, I'm literally 4 feet away from her, right smack dab, right there. Almost had the god-god seat. I'd still consider the new seat the godseat. DrewN though, he has the godseat.

        So, we had our usual walk convo. That was, it. This week's actually spirit week, Homecoming's on Saturday. Today was class color day, in which I forgot and realized as I was walking to 1st period. Mother, fucking, pink. I think I've explained it enough times that pink is an uncommon color when it comes to both genders.

        About 80% of our class (of 2017) had on pink. I forgot today, otherwise I would've asked my mom for one of her pink jackets. Tomorrow's "multi-cultural" day, so you have to wear like, clothes from another culture or some shit. I do not really have any, and ummm, yeah, so instead, I cut out Chinese characters for "Hello" on black construction paper and glued it to a white shirt. Hopefully that'll count, it's the only time I've actually put effort into spirit week, heh.

        Oh yeah, and also the teacher explained to us that he always gave out this assignment, optional of course, that he'd give us like participation points if we were to wear a large, identifiable, red letter for a whole day. Like Hester in the Scarlet Letter, except, not forever. It's just for the experience, and it doesn't have to be an A, it could be any letter, first letter of a word that means something or whatever. You can choose whether you want to reveal what it means or not. Not sure when we get this assignment, but it would be pretty bootleg. I was thinking of the letter "L", for lazy.

        Biology was just, notes again, a bit, lecture really, and then we uh, got to experience and familiarize ourselves with the microscopes, looking at a plant cell and animal cell, for funsies, you know, familiarize with the microscopes for tomorrow's project. After the teacher put in that test, the first one we did (and so far only), my grade's a C-. Yep, 72%. Ho, ly, shit. I can understand though.

        Math, was, just, the usual. The project's due on Wednesday, have yet to start, it's gonna be great. fuck me, heh. Lunch, well that was just the usual. I explained what happened already in the beginning. And then there was SSR. I got a notification towards the end of SSR. I check it, it's from Yn, she says "It's Lt right? That's your crush isn't it?"

        And I'm just like "HOOOOO, damn she's a good fucking detective, I gotta give her that". I was thinking how she knew Lt, then I was like "Oh right, I think she saw us doing a walk convo from 1st to 2nd period one time... how the fuck does she know her name though?". Anyways, that shit continued only when I got home. For US History, just watch a video on presidents, take notes. For Chinese, read aloud shit, and uh, do work in class.

        Now onto the Yn thing. Haven't messaged her in a while. She got it, I wasn't gonna deny it, I was like "Alright, I gotta give it to ya". I then told her about how there was this one dude who Lt always hangs out with during break, not sure who he is. She's like "Don't worry, I gotchu". She then talks about her crush. Now I don't know who it is but, ya know, I could care less right now, heh. She's all sad and stuff about how he doesn't notices her and all that shit.

        I reassure her, etc, etc. I asked if she was going to Homecoming. She said she was too lazy, but I told her that she said she would go to every event her senior year, that she told me that last year. She's "Oh, I forgot about that. I'll see if my friends are going". She asks if I am and uh, I'm planning to, I'm planning to.

        It ended somewhere around 5:00 PM or so, I was sleepy and wanted my nap time, she was hungry and went to go eat, heh. So yeah, what a plot twist to start off season 8. Well, not much of a plot twist, but, plot device. Now if she can get Lt's name, she can probably get that dude's name. Still have no idea how she got Lt's name, heh.

        Oh and the crew so far aren't planning to go to Homecoming. Now this is the thing, people are all like "Oh, you don't need to have a date for Homecoming, just go with friends". Now what if your friends aren't going? "Go by yourself, maybe you'll meet someone new". I would, but honestly, going in blind is fucking terrifying, heh, it's scary. Never been to Homecoming, never been to a dance at school. Not even sure what to do there. The cast is planning to go to Ag's house for game-night where we play bootleg boardgames and games.

        So right now, I gotta persuade Lt go with me. Not directly, but just enough that she'll be like "Eh, why the fuck not". I mean, she was kinda iffy on the whole wearing-a-scarlet-letter optional assignment thing. I'm like, what? It's free points. But anyways, we'll see how this crazy season's gonna unfold, watch for the 2-part finale on October 2-3 at 7:00 AM PST. See ya.
