Cleaned house with Mom, and then went to the Huckleberry with Olivia, Katie, Mindy, Kelly and Allyson. Ran into my crush from freshman year, a guy two grades above me. My friends and I nicknamed him Teddy Bear back when I liked/stalked him. It was strange to see him again and feel absolutely no attraction whatsoever when I used to be so nuts about him. His girlfriend was the type who wore leggings rather than pants.
Picked up Dad from airport in pouring rain. His flight was late, I was late from traffic, and there was a lot of rain.
Thursday
Went to school to check out. Got everything signed off, and then hung out in the counseling lab with other people for a few hours. Signed yearbooks, looked at TVTropes, just sat around and talked. It was lots of fun, except for the part where coffee spilled all over everyone.
Then had Goodbye-Seniors Assembly, where people cried into microphones about how much they loved each other. I played sudoku with Allyson.
Then went to Alumni Barbeque and had the best veggie burger ever. Ran into another ex-crush, had same strange feeling of man-I-definitely-don't-like-you-anymore. My formerly asexual friend came out as gay, and we ate a lot of food.
I went to King Soopers with Hannah and Phoebe and Kelly to buy potatoes for their band prank. 80 lbs of potatoes later, we went to Kelly's house with Olivia, Mindy, Kate and Allyson for a few hours, where we napped, watched YouTube videos, pranked each other and talked more.
After Kelly's house, we headed over to the Senior Night of Reflections, where we ate dinner and then had another open mic thing, part of which involved our parents. Far too many tears all around.
Friday
Went to school at 9 for my third meal at school in a row: the Senior Breakfast. We posed for a picture, ate a lot of food, and then moved into graduation rehearsal. We practiced standing up and sitting down together on command a lot, and it felt like I was back in Primary. Then we went through the tunnel of the entire school giving us high-fives, which spit us out onto the field, where we did more graduation rehearsal. I got sunburned, but enjoyed guessing middle names of everyone with Lucas Horton, Jacob Hilvitz and Tom Hessner (yay alphabetical order).
I then drove Olivia and Katie home, blasting classical music from the car with the windows down. We drove around for a little while, just enjoying the moment. It was very nice.
Then I picked my Mom up, and we played a fun game of yay-we've-been-kicked-out-of-the-house-for-a-showing. We had lunch at Noodles and Company, and then picked Ariel up from school. We spent the rest of our exile at the library, and then returned home, exhausted. Dad and I looked at laptops for school, and our family decided that we will be moving on June 3rd.
Saturday
I went to lunch with my family, and then the party-hopping began. Kelly and Mindy and Olivia and I went to Katie's party, socialized a lot there, and then went to our friend Kris's party, which involved a lot of balloons and small children. We then went to our friend Maithreyi's party, and then to my Mormon-kid graduation party. I stayed there, but they left for more parties after a while. I met Mr. Bingley's new girlfriend, who was surprisingly short and very nice. I liked her quite a lot. Then I went home and opened the tons of cards that people gave me for graduation - it's awesome! I got a towel, a toaster-type thing, a bunch of gift cards and lots of candy. It's like Christmas!
Sunday
Woke up late, looked at graduation pictures with parents. Went to church, wrote speech for Seminary graduation. Cleaned house, went to barbeque at Katie's house, watched some Sherlock there with Katie, her boyfriend Tom, Olivia, Mindy, Kelly, Ariel and Katie's sister Taryn. Ate food, talked, then went to Seminary graduation with Dad. Gave my talk - apparently it went well - ate a lot of food, went over to the end of Mom's last orchestra concert. Am now home and tired.
Tomorrow is Sherlock day. Woohoo!
