It rained. It rained!
That makes me happy. Even though it was barely a drizzle. I guess that's a good thing since I had to walk in it for 30 mins. Because, I was foolish! I didn't bring my cellphone (or mp3 player) to school today. So, I was unable to call my dad! But walking in a drizzle is fun. Much funner than walking in the sun.
No music isn't that bad, either. Except at lunch. It was a bit boring. Esp. seeing as I had no hw to work on at all.
But, it's still a good day!
I'm very proud of myself. Because, today, in orchestra, I pwnt the cellos! We worked on the Brookgreen Suite. And Mvt3 (Dance) was fast! And I was one of the first people to catch on to the syncopated rhythm. But that's not what I'm proud of.
See, the first time we went through cellos were an unholy mess. And I wasn't really trying, either, and totally didn't play properly.
Thus, the second time I counted a bit, but everyone else came in at different times and I was completely thrown off!
So, the third time, I concentrated some more on counting. And decided to completely ignore everyone else. They were together this time, actually. I came in a beat before all of them, and a few people gave me annoyed glances. But they didn't know what I knew. Because, I was counting! And I was right! So, while we were playing, majority ruled and some people looked at me irritably. But when we reached the end of the phrase, I was perfectly in sync with the violins! And they were not! And when the phrase ended and there was a rest, they played for an extra beat!
And THEN they knew I was right. And I was duly delighted!
So I stuck to ignoring them completely and counting by myself. And I got everything perfect! And Michael started following me.
Eventually, everyone caught on to it, and I was sad, because it's less fun to gloat when everyone's on the same page as you.
But, I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't have caught on so fast if I didn't do it first! And anyways, thinking about it makes me happy, and I can't resist gloating on my LJ.

Michael made me sad. He insisted that I must have practiced it at home. I didn't! I don't even have the Brookgreen Suite at home. But he insisted that it was impossible to play it so well without practice. Which, I guess, is a compliment of sorts, and I should be happy. Then again, doesn't that imply that I'm a liar? It made me sad anyways, though he seemed to grudgingly take my word for it at the end.
Much piano-experimenting with Paulina during tutorial. Alex Ren lent me his sheet music again. "Listen to My Heart" - some song I'd never heard before, apparently Grace's fav. song in the world, and fun/easy to sight read.
Alex might have a stuffed ego, and Felicia + Melody don't like him (they act like immature little kids: "Ewww! That book is Alex's? Why are you touching it? Aiyeeeee!"), but he's nice enough when it comes to this. Even though he has to put up SUCH a very conceited attitude when I talk to him...
Interesting movie in Health.
... Ms. Sutton is crazy. She's absolutely crazy. Oh, if you could've seen her in our class today...
Punnett squares in Biology. Boooooring. This was the section I completely aced last year. Which makes it doubly boring now. Why, why, why isn't my damn top subject award good enough proof for them to let me skip? WHY?!

Holy shit, I have a cello lesson today, don't I?
Edit: Ahaha... this is why smart people like Eliza don't run about in the rain, not even a sprinkle, even when she doesn't have a cold... ahahahaa but really it's worth the moment... and anyways you DON'T have a cold... hahaha I'madork... ahahaha I'm paying for it right now... @_@ hahaaha but given the chance I'd still go voluntarily run about in the rain.... whether I have a cold or not.... wow I really am stupid aren't I... hahaha is it really worth it...? But who cares if it's worth it... I mean... it won't make a difference if I think about it... because I know myself too well... I'd do it again without a second thought.... Ahahahahaha I'm an idiot!! Go meeee~
