Today

Today we went out to dinner, on the way out I had an Andes Mint. I started telling my mom about how if I had two billion dollars I would build a castle out of Andes Mints, I went on to explain that I would make sure that there was a huge air conditioned dome around it, but mid-sentence my mom interrupted me with "I'm sorry, am I still supposed to be paying attention still?" It was a wonderful moment, especially because it is not at all surprising for her to say. When we got home my mom started making Angel Food cake, yesterday was my dad's birthday, so she was makings Angel's Food cake for Trifle. I guess the instructions on the box were very complicated, because she said it was cake for the OCD, then proceeded to read them out loud to me. She started reading "Sprinkle 1/4 of the flour mixture over the egg white mixture. Fold (cut down through batter, across bottom, up, and over the top, turning the bowl often) flour mixture into the whipped egg whites gently using a wire whisk or slotted spoon. Repeat three more times; making sure to fold after each flour addition." She then repeated the "Fold flour mixture" steps while she did them. It was kind of funny because she was so concentrated, but at the end she exclaimed that she had not used a wire whisk (oh the horror), so the cake would be totally ruined.
The rest of today was pretty awesome too. (Sorry to skip around from the end of the day to the beginning.) I went to school and had first period geography. I can't stand my geography class, but it was bearable today. I was in a great mood, and realized when I got to homeroom that I had no homework. No homework is an amazing thing, especially on A days, because I have math second period and tend to do my homework for it in homeroom. I used my random half hour of free time doing nothing, but it was kind of nice to not be racing the clock for once. I was walking from homeroom to math, and I saw a girl who no one really talks to. I had math with her last year, and I try to talk to her when I see her. I have never seen her smile for more than a second, but today I went up to talk to her and she smiled the whole time. She was in a good mood, and it made me happy, because I think she usually doesn't like school because of all the rude people there.
I was in an even better mood from talking to her by the time I got to math than I had been in geography. People seemed friendly a lot today, and I was happy when I understood the math and helped other people in it. After math I had lunch though, this semester I have no super close friends in either of my lunches, but it's not like I have to sit alone in a corner. I didn't want  to go to lunch, so I procrastinated going by talking to my friend before she had English third period. Turns out my procrastinating was a bad idea, because by the time I got to lunch  there were pretty much no empty seats left. With my friends I had lunch with last semester I would just share a seat or something, but I didn't know these friends well enough to be comfortable just like making a seat for myself. I went and sat at an empty seat a little bit farther down the table. I hate sitting alone because not only do you feel alone, everyone around you thinks your alone. One of the girls felt sorry for me, as is the case usually when you sit alone, and talked to me for a second, but she had friends to talk to so I assured her I usually sit with other people, there just weren't any seats. After a while people leave the lunch room, so there was a couple empty seats by the friends I sit by most the time. I went over and talked to them, but I didn't really have anything to say, so it felt a little awkward. A girl named Sariah sat down by me and we talked for the rest of lunch period. She is nice, so my compday was good again.
Next period I had seminary, which is probably my favorite class. I have a really cool teacher and my class is really cool. Biology managed to bring my day down, but over all today rocked. I had a lot of random encounters with people, but all of them good. I saw an elderly lady from my old neighborhood after school (who is really nice and sweet, but I haven't seen her in a long time) and got to talk to her. She gave me cookies and said that I dressed classy, so really nothing you can say will make this day not amazing.
