Follow the Way of the Yak.

This is part of a post I wrote yesterday while riding to Richplace on a bus with the rest of the HS A. Team:

My philosophy on life: "I don't know . . . whatever."
Evan has just tied my shoes together. As you can tell this post wasn't originally written on the computer. Right now I'm sitting on the bus across from Evan the Amazingly Annoying being bored. I just thought I could start blogging now so I can do justice to the The Tournament later.

Twilight Time Between: I showed up with seconds to spare yet again. XP

Health: I came in a Lucretia was doodling an Xmas tree on the board. It'sn not even been Halloween yet and she's thinking Xmas! Halloween is the best holiday EVER! So I went up to the board next to her and began to doodle Jack Skellington. She stops. She looks. She says, "Eww! Don't draw that guy! He's UG-LY!" and erases Jack the Pumkin King's head! Blasphemy! Then we watched a dumb video on nutrition and I doodled in the very notebook I'm writing this in.

Geometery: Worksheets and terms, general boringnes. XP

English: Worksheets and notes. Prepositional phrases are everywhere. They're everywhere!

Lunch: Brady was gone again. Greg brought that magazine he's been promising me for 3 days. There's a figureine in there of The Great Deity! *angelic chorus* Must have! Must get! Must own! GHA! I was reading a reveiw for Rules of Rose out loud and I'd just gotten to the bit about "animal cruelty, live burials, and sexula innuendo" when I look up to see Mr. Parking standing behind me. It was a little scary. He just sort of smiled and moved along the cafeteria. Freaked me out. DX

Advisory: Went to the Art room and worked on my masks.

Phys Sci: Talked to Sam, who is blonde now. It's definately different than her old black. XJ We worked on mole conversions again. Mine were all converted to Hindu.

Am His: We were only in this class for ten minutes or so. We took the quiz and left to load the bus. And now here I am. I've already listened to Rosenrot once and tried to do my homework on this friggin bumpy bus. It's 3:15 now. I'll report back with news of the match later. Back to you, Silence.

Thanks, Silence. That was it for the bus written part.

128 days remain.

We stopped at a food strip in some little town or other and Evan and I got Taco Bell while the rest of the people (Haylee, Sara, Addy, Rebecca) went to DQ. We got our food and went over there to eat with them. We had about an hour to do so and there were creepy people in costumes in front of the McDonald's. There was a dancing cookie, a hamburgler, and a "Jacket" because that's the school mascot in that town. Evan and I thought it was a hornet and started singing the "We are the Hornets," song from Speak.
Now, I'll get into the match. We sat around in Richplace's sherbet colored school for a while listening to Sabastian play his guitar. He's pretty good. He was singing too and sometimes that wasn't as good. XD

The first match we played was against a bunch of dipsticks from . . . I don't remember. Somewhere. I never caught were. They beat us pretty roundly. One of them was wearing black tieless lowtop Chucks. I got a valkiries question. I got most of the questions in that match. We had a bonus question about psychologists. They would give you a title of a book and you had to tell them which psychologist wrote it. We got one I think and then the moderator said Interpretation of Dreams which I knew was by Frude (can't spell that). I was looking at Evan, who was captain, nodding and smiling, because I thought that he knew. He smiled back and looks up and says, "Doctor Suess!" Doctor Suess!?!?! I thou ght he knew that! He's always complaining about Frude! He should have to know a little bit about him right? WRONG! I was mad at him and Mrs. Scary (JV coach) was mad at him too. We both told him he was being stupid.

The second match we got beat in too. Mrs. Scary put me next to Evan in this one so I could smack him when he did stupid things. Evan was actually asking me to punch him on some of them. I didn't hit him too hard. XJ This one was against another one I don't remember. O-something. XP They just kept getting easy ones.

The third match was against one of our arch enemies . . . buh, buh, buh . . . Nerwood! The Frullet wasn't on the team though. We were playing the B team because we're the JV and the Frullet had moved up to the A team because she's sooo good. We beat Nerwood by ten points! Yay! Woohoo! It was a stressful night for me because I was in the whole time. I was the top scorer for the night, too. We went and waited in the serbet hall for varsity to show up. Evan had to go out and look in the bus for them. THey weren't in the bus. We sat around and waited for them for a long time. I talked to this guy from Nerwood who was pretty nice. He was missing a baseball game on TV for this, he said.

We gave up and were herded onto the bus a few minutes before varsity got out of their game. They said they'd entered over time and had a sudden death round and lost. XP Sux for them. Their record was 1-2 as well. They'd only won one game, too. I tried to throw up on our way to the bus. That tasted real good.
On the bus ride home I wasn't feeling very good and Evan was trying to cheer me up. He told him his soul would be with me or something sappy like that and I said, "Now I think I really will throw up."
He taught me how to do the deadfish-faith-hook-pinky-shoot handshake. We just sat there and did it over and over again until I got it right. He'd tried to teach me before, but I'd brushed him off. We talked about my book some more. I got some good ideas from him (dark northern god, Anna visions, and . . . something else, I'll remember later). He always knows the story line but never has to read the story. He usually knows the storyline of the books I haven't written yet. Then we got to talking about Tyler Durden and philosophy and the universe, lots of things like that. It's always interesting when we get to talking about things like that.
