Long one!
Nice, long sleep.  Dad took me and Jill.  Rained last night.  Cleared off.  Went to Scholar Bowl.  Then home room.  Got senior favorites thing.  Got tax folder and went over it in Con Ed.  Filled in senior favorites, soda break (I got Coke), and had filmstrip (no one listened).  B+ in Lit!  B+ in Con Ed.  Others A!  Late to Spanish.  Who cares?  Did worksheet.  Fun.  Had Physics test, I turned it in early.  It was easy though.  Read half a chapter in “Red Storm Rising.”  Stayed after a little.  Went to lunch.  Mike at 1/3 of Barb H’s chocolate birthday cake.  Ate hamburger and fries (class A).  Loaned Tim $.50.  Circused.  Jeremy took Beowulf test in study hall.  Darrin and I talked (he filled out senior favorites).  Oh, poster contest 2nd hour. We lost!  Played badminton doubles tournament.  Shelly M and me vs. Jeremy and Terri R.  They won 15-13.  Didn’t shower.  Rode home with Darrin.  Dropped Scott off, then Stacy G’s sister (Shelly?) at Family Flair for a tan.  Got home.  Played Destroyer.  Fun.  Watched TV.  Jimmy came over.  Watched architecture “3-2-1 Contact.”  Ate pizza rolls.  Called Jeremy.  Supposed to snow Friday now!  Scholar Bowl tomorrow (three games)!  Gotta play.  Nervouso!  I’ve had no practice for spotlight.  I have no idea how to use it!  Anyway, Jeremy picked me up in truck around 6:05pm.  Got gas at Gas-n-Grab.  Got to school.  Put jackets in lockers.  Harry and DeAnn came in.  Talked to Barb F and Michelle G.  I got Quietest (tie with Most Courteous).  Harry got Best Hair.  He has sore feet (went to doctor).  Senior vs. Sophomore, we won!  Our team:
Brad C, Lori, Jody, Barb F/Dan, Glenn, Dia.  Shawn was our coach.
Eric M was there.  Then DeAnn ran our mad, Harry chased after her.  Scooted to other end of bleachers.  Aaron came in.  Then Seniors vs Juniors.  We cheered!  We won!  Joe made a wrong call.  After game, Jeremy, Aaron, and I (in CIA form) got Joe by locker room and beat him up (for play). Others got in.  Soon, big 10-man real riot!  Vollert broke it up.  Went out to bonfire.  Fire truck came.  Brenda, duh!  Smokers.  Had no jacket, kinda cold.  Lit with flare!  Dancing, singing, cheerleading, Berny filming, mascots burning (ours with firecrackers), then the food.  Ran in.  Had donuts and hot chocolate on stage.  Talked for a while.  Everyone had to leave.  Darrin took Joe and Scott.  Jeremy took me.  Talked about Russia and USA. Gorbachev is in USA visiting.  Cutting Russia’s army down 10% (500,000 guys) in 2 years.  And more!  We talked about “Red October” and “Red Storm.”  I loved “Red Storm Rising.”  Got his copy of the book, turned it in to library.  He dropped me off (around 8:30pm).  Amy here (gone now, I think).  Mom shipping, home now.  Dad taping from radio in my room, still on!  Gonna read now.  Guess that’s today!  I liked the day.  Don’t know about dance.  Nervous about spotlighting Jungle Dance Friday.  Got Mike M’s senior picture yesterday.
