Latest News on Boys

Well, the date I mentioned a few weeks ago fell through. I'm pretty sure the guy has a girlfriend too, at least if holding hands and kissing are any indication.

Here is where being a halfway normal teenage girl would definitely come in handy.

So. I'm putting together my school newspaper right now, which is a deceptively smooth process when looked at from the outside. However, when you're in the middle of it, running around, taking pictures, yelling at people who didn't finish their articles.... well, let's just say you perfect your Aggressive Walk of Doom pretty quickly.

Annoying Incident of the Day:

A girl was supposed to write a spotlight piece on a teacher at our school who's doing a "Fundamentals of Aviation" class after school. She told me last week that she had written it and put it on the journalism server. Then she told me three different folders she thought it was in; it wasn't in any of them. She claimed to have written it, still, and that it was on her USB drive. Which was conveniently stolen. I found out today that she didn't even interview the teacher. The sad thing is that I can't write this off as freshman stupidity, as she's been on this paper for two years. She knows that all articles in all states of the writing process go on the server. And where they go on the server (New Articles is a pretty logical title, no?).

Grrrr...

Today I was asked on a date with a boy for the first time in almost three years. Given, he's younger than me and so I'll have to drive, but still. It's a date. I'd almost given up hope that I was attractive to the male gender in general. Tennis practice was unusually giggly today.

And yet...

Different boy than the one I was planning to ask to prom. I'm not sure how the one I was intending to ask will take me going on a date with another boy.

I cannot believe I am actually debating what to do in a case where two different boys are actually viable options.
