Rejoice! Robbie and Keri broke up today. Now he’s free and I’m supposed to make my move, which I kind of already have. See, last night Ana and I were going through the yearbook (on the phone) trying to find guys to like. Anyway we said we couldn’t like Robbie because we was taken. So, at lunch I mentioned (to Ana, Natalie & Alexis) that we could like him now. Kristen B. heard it and told Robbie I liked him. Then Tom W. came over to ask me if I liked Robbie – I denied it but Ana said that I was madly in love w/ him. Alexis backed up the story. Soon, I was denying that I liked him left and right – to everyone but Robbie. Then people said he was going to ask me out and would I go out with him. Tom W. asked me out for him – but Alexis told him to have Robbie ask me out himself. I saw very little of Robbie today. Anyway, in block Kristen told me it was all a big joke and he wasn’t going to ask me out – but Cassie said he was. I have no idea what’s going on in Robbie’s head. Or in mine. I don’t know what to think or feel. I really want him to ask me out tomorrow but I don’t know if I’d say yes. Alexis wants me to say yes. I have a feeling she feels bad because I’ve never gone out with anyone and she has. I just wish the talk would stop All of it. There’s A LOT more. More gossip after the jump!

I really should know better but I lost my chance to ask out this girl I met at a Jonathan Richman show.
She’s got cute glasses and wears hats.
Her name’s Maya.
Hopefully by some miracle she’ll see this.
I was too tongue-tied to say anything intelligent at the time, so I’d like to try again. My name’s Noah. Youre.the.girl.from.the.show@gmail.com
#SWOON cutest thing ever right??
Happy New Year!
I wanted to have a party but Emily came over and I couldn’t have had more fun. Except maybe w/ Becky & Emily! I (we) called Becky at 11, thinking it might be midnight there! It was 1! I got to remember that Texas is a 2 hour difference.
All vacation I have been thinking about Mike. I can still see him walking up to Mrs. Capitani’s desk with his Sharks non-parka on – he was SO CUTE. Just like a big teddy bear! Except he’s not overstuffed!
I can’t even remember what song we kinda danced to – if you can count what we did as dancing. I think it was UB40 – Can’t Help Falling in Love – but I guess I’ll never know.
For Xmas I got iceskates! and a walkman! and a few singles & the soundtrack to Free Willy.
That about wraps it up. I’m not excactly dissapointed but in my stocking I got peanuts! Jeezz! Santa didn’t come, either. I don’t really mind – I love what I got! Were you a Free Willy fan? I remember LOVING that movie.
Tonight before ice skating I looked in my underwear and it was full of pus. Later I told Emily. She said that I will probably discontinue our friendship because I’m more advanced. I can really sympathize with her. She was really upset.
When I told Mom about it (just now) she showed me where her pantyliners are and asked me questions, like “is it red?” No, it was clear. gross, huh? She said “sometimes the vagina gives discharge for no reason. By the time I got out of there I was sweating gallons.
Onto a different subject… All today people were talking about how some guy liked me with the last name that began with “M”. I could win an emmy for that acting job since Emily told me after band that it was Jeff M. I had to pretend through to the end of lunch til I guessed it. Jeff knew that some guy liked me and wanted to know who. He kept denying it was him, without ever being accused! It was obvious Alexis (who started it) was right. She said all through our surprise presentation in block yesterday, Jeff was watching me. Great!
Anyway, he kept calling the guy who liked me a girl and it was so funny! He was calling himself a girl. It was hilarious.
Finally he found out it was him, and denied it (for the hundreth time!). Today was a tres bien day. a tout a l’heure! Don’t you just love my mediocre French at the end of every entry?
Tonight Becky + me spent hours and hours on the phone. Most of the time we didn’t even say a word, except Becky sang in her awful voice.
She sang the Block Buster Video song. Even as I write she is on the phone, singing.
Did I mention I’m in my room! Yes I GOT A PHONE
Actually it’s Becky’s but not for long. Just kidding. It’s until August. The phone can go into Sara’s room or the bathroom. I’m using line 2.
Cool huh. I think so.
Guess what?
I DON’T LIKE STEVE ANY MORE
YEA!!!
Now I like someone different.
Just kidding.
I am popular. I think. I’ve spent the past 4 days entirely with Becky. After tonight I feel closer to her than I have ever felt.
I called a guy. Roger. It was cool. Not hard at all; not like I thought. He’s going out with Alexis. What does she have that I don’t? I’ve liked him all year. Now I have self confidence though.
We’re just friends. Roger want kiss Alexis. Alexis told him that she’d slap him if he tryed so Roger won’t kiss even hug hug him.
I’m getting a C+ in PE. I never thought I’d stoop so low. The thing was I didn’t even care. Read on…
I’ve been working on my mix tape of Tom Waits love songs this week.
I have the goal of finishing it by Valentine’s Day, which is a tall order given that I have been working on this mix for over three years.
I first mentioned it back in January 2008 as I bemoaned the lack of love in my life…
“Tom, I believe, is a man unlike the typical man, with a thorough respect and understanding of that incomprehensible mental state called love.” read the rest of the post
In the post I reference his song San Diego Serenade, but neglect to include it. It’s a great song.
This song is definitely making it onto the mix.
Do you have a favorite Tom Waits love song I should make sure to consider?
Will has been playing a lot of Mario lately. Another development around is that he got a blog, agreed to a domain name and let me customize it! I’ll put a link at the bottom of the post** so that I don’t lose you quite yet.
In other news, the Guster is considering secondary education:
And has been for quite some time. I told him that school already started and he needs to get there if he’s actually going to go (he’s been threatening it for years), but he keeps claiming mono or other such sleep-related illnesses.
But that’s neither here nor there, and this post is about Super Mario World, and its annual presence in my life. Read on…
Pool Party!!! It’s finally comin’ together.
Even at the age of 12 planning for my birthday party (not yet titled Jenfest) began months in advance.
I’ve had fun in fifth grade. Now there is only four days left. Only four days!!! Next year I’ll be in an humongous school with 1,000 people. I’ll never find my classes. Read on…
Becky used Kudos bars to reward her friends.
I thought Steve would ask me out today. He didn’t. I guess I never expected him to. I never see him around school. How come Alex hates me so? Becky hasn’t given me her Kudos all week. I wonder why. I heard Alex saying that having someone at the table was like having me at the table. What is that supposed to mean? What does Alex have against me? I’m sure she’s the one that convinced Becky not to give me her Kodoes and maybe not even like me. It seems like the whole world has has turned against me. Crochet ‘R’ Us is going nowhere. I have sixteen days to make what seems like a million bookworms. People keep asking about them. Read on…
