Friday

(Continued from last post...)
When I woke up, i knew I had to go. So I gathered my clothes, packed extra food (I was NOT paying $5 for pizza!) and got ready to go. My Dad drove me and my brother to the bus stop, which was great for my hip! (Lately, my hip has been hurting, and walking on it can hurt/ be tiresome) At school, I felt good. I was not upset that I was going, but happy. I realized that if I had chosen not to go, then I would have regretted it. Last night my Dad had told me, ''Whatever you chose, do without regrets." That's exactly what I did.
 Since my day flew by, I will start with the Variety Show first.
After class practice in 2'nd period, the next practice was after school. However, during practice in 2'nd period, my friend S told B that she couldn't stay for the V.S. The teacher, who also found out today, told her that since she wasn't staying, that she would sit out of practice and watch. So that was what she did. Looking at S, I was glad that was not me. I made a commitment, and was going to stick to that.
 At 2:50, I grabbed my stuff from my locker, and walked toward the cafeteria. Practice was OK, instead of practicing we ran through the show. The teacher told us the order of the groups, and thinking we would either be first, or one of the first, I was mistaken. Instead of being first (or one of) we were the 3'rd to last. Talk about jitters. And get this, when we went up (to run through without an audience, just in front of the others who were performing) the announcer (who is in two of my classes!) got my NAME WRONG. Thanks A LOT , A!
 Once the practice run-through was over, the teacher told us that we had an hour to eat and rehearse. She also said that those who paid got to get 2 pieces of pizza (5in-by-5in squares!!!HAHA!) And those who paid and who didn't pay, could get sodas! Then, when everybody who paid got pizza, anybody (paid or not!) could get pizza! Talk about SCAMMED!
 B was stressed. As the instructor of the group, it was hard on her. Nobody was listening, and you could see the tears welling in her eyes. Then, C (who had a solo) must have gotton on her nerves, because she yelled, ''GET OUT! GO NOW, BYE C!" He looked around like, ''What?" "LEAVE!" She screamed. She had reached her limit. With him finally gone, we had to rush to find a person who could do his solo, and this was very last-minute.
 The teacher, who was informed with everything, put him back into our group. ''One more chance.'' She said. But one chance didn't cut it, he was out within minutes.
 During the V.S I was nervous, I was shaking, and the more acts that passed, the worse it got. Before the V.S started, those of us who were left, group prayed.
 When we were backstage, C was back with us. He said he wanted to pray, so we all prayed.
 Going up there was nerve-wrecking, I was very jittery. But when it was over, the fall made it complete. I wish I had photos, or even a video, but I dont. On Monday we will find out who made it. Except, the teacher already told her favorites who made it, so who knows.
God bless,
Love,
297 more days,
