Tuesday, April 24:

We have to invite a special person to thank backstage during my graduation. Every student was prompted to do so. At first, I planned to thank my peace lovin' older sister (where I get most of my "hippy" status); my mother thought she would be the best choice. However, plan was averted when she called me up the very same night I notified her that I would be honoring her.

We talked it over, and we decided someone was more deserving: my mother. Now, my mom is like some sort of Ninja due to the fact she ALWAYS knows WHAT you're up to. Basically, in the history of her living, no one's been able to pull a fast one on her and surprise her.

Well, today she got a nice package from Barbie (my sister) and I. A stuffed puppy (that has "sickeningly cute" written all over it), a handwritten letter from Barbie, and the invite and hand written card from me. After first she was aghast that I had indeed chosen her. But after a while, she realized WHY I did it.

I think, inside, she's beaming with pride.

Let's see... I should get back to work. I have a fish project due Thursday (researching the Ornate Butterfly fish, native to Down Under), a massive Zoology test on Friday. My Macbeth papers are due on Friday as well. Dang. Seems like the closer we are to the end of the days (24 for Seniors? Don't quote me on that) they pile up on the tests and research papers galore. And tomorrow I bridge up as a senior Girl Scout.

Heh... "Girl Scout". After tomorrow... I can't be called that anymore.
